The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1000

Chapter 1000: Chapter 838, Willing to Let Go

In the deep and disordered alleyways of South City, Xiao Yechi hid in a pile of junk, watching with his eyes wide open as the last two of his men ran out to lure away the chasing soldiers before he closed his eyes in annoyance.

Prince Residence of Pingxi.

Daohua had dinner with the Prince of Pingxi and then returned to Pingxi Hall.

It was not until dawn the next day that Xiao Yeyang returned. As soon as he arrived, Daohua woke up startled, "Why have you been busy until now? Did you catch him?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head, taking the handkerchief handed over by Wang Manman and wiped his face, "Xiao Yechi is still at large."

Daohua’s face showed surprise, "So many people and they still didn’t catch him?"

Xiao Yeyang changed his clothes and lay down on the bed, "Don’t underestimate Xiao Yechi, he was personally taught by the Eight Princes, and the Eight Princes are the Emperor’s uncle’s most troublesome confidant, full of tricks."

Daohua nodded, "Despite being hit with a dumb drug and Soft Muscle Powder, Xiao Yechi still managed to escape, indeed quite impressive." She paused before continuing, "By the way, how did Luo Qiong die?"

Xiao Yeyang fell silent for a while, "She was used as a human shield by Xiao Yechen and died from arrow wounds."

Daohua, "Xiao Yechi didn’t care about her?"

Xiao Yeyang scoffed, "Xiao Yechi is busy fleeing; why would he care about Luo Qiong? Not only did he not care, but he also pushed Luo Qiong and Xiao Yechen out to attract everyone’s attention, buying himself a chance to escape."

Hearing this, Daohua showed a sigh on her face. Luo Qiong really trusted the wrong people, her husband used her as a shield, and her lover abandoned her in the face of danger.

Seeing Xiao Yeyang’s tired expression, Daohua didn’t ask any more, pulled over a thin blanket to cover his chest, and waited until he fell asleep before she quietly got out of bed.

On the other side, after a night of inner force stimulation, Xiao Yechi finally could move freely, immediately climbed over the courtyard wall next door, changed into a short brown robe, put on a straw hat, and went onto the street.

There was nothing unusual on the streets, just more patrolling soldiers, Xiao Yechi cautiously hid in the crowd, walking quickly towards the city gate.

The gate, indeed, was open, unfortunately, it was only open for incoming, not outgoing.

Looking at the heavily guarded gate, Xiao Yechi’s heart sank, pondering for a while before directly turning around towards the inner city.

...

At noon, Xiao Yeyang woke up, came out of the inner room, and saw Daohua squatting in the courtyard feeding food to the hunting dogs.

Daohua raised seven hunting dogs, Xiao Yeyang, Yan Wentao, Yan Wenkai each took one, and of the remaining four, she brought two with her to the Prince Residence when she got married, leaving the other two at the Yan Residence as protectors.

"You’re awake!" _{freēwēbηovel.c૦m}

Seeing Xiao Yeyang, Daohua handed the dog food to Bi Shi, smiling as she entered the room.

Xiao Yeyang knew Daohua too well, seeing her leading the hunting dogs out, he already knew what she intended, "You want me to catch Xiao Yechi with the hunting dogs?"

Daohua nodded, "There should still be the scent of the drug on Xiao Yechi’s body, take Dog Xiao’er with you when you go out, it might help you."

After saying this, she pulled him to the dining table.

Xiao Yeyang did not object; Dog Xiaoyi had been borrowed by the Commander for a task a while ago and had not yet been returned to him, it seemed he needed to personally retrieve it at some point.

After lunch, Xiao Yeyang led Dog Xiao’er out the door.

A dog’s nose is always a bit more sensitive than a human’s; that afternoon, it led Xiao Yeyang and his men to the place where Xiao Yechi had hidden the night before.

Meanwhile, in the backyard of an apothecary in the inner city, an old man responsible for preparing medicines in the shop skulked into the storeroom with a bowl of freshly boiled medicine.

"Master, once you drink this medicine, you will be able to speak."

Xiao Yechi eyed the bowl in the old man’s hands but did not take it immediately.

Although this man was also a Jinling Guard, they had not been in contact for many years, and Xiao Yechi did not trust him completely.

Seeing this, the elder quickly took a sip first, then offered the bowl to Xiao Yechi again.

Xiao Yechi took the bowl, downed the medicine, and before long, he felt his throat start to itch. Trying to make a sound, he found that he really could speak.

"What’s the situation outside?"

Xiao Yechi asked hoarsely.

The elder, "The Jinling Guard is leading the soldiers to check the population house by house, arresting everyone who doesn’t have a residency registration or can’t explain their origin and taking them to jail."
