Across Time And Space 150 Catching Up With Chief Ye

Chief Ye and her clan members had departed from Da Cheng earlier in the morning.

That morning, Jiang Xiao Tian sent off Chief Ye and her clan members at the Capital's entrance as according to the Crown Princess' instruction. Although Princess Lingchen had offered to send along Jiang Xiao Tian and his men to escort them back home, Chief Ye had declined as they do not want to trouble the princess any longer.

It has been a long time since they left.

As Jiang Xiao Tian looked at the position of the sun, he guessed that Chief Ye and the others had almost reached the border at this time. They would have to enter Eastern Zhou if they wanted to catch up with Chief Ye and the clan.

It was fortunate that Jiang Xiao Xian had offered them to borrow a few of his horse. Or else, they might not be able to chase after Chief Ye and her clan. With the military horses, they will be able to catch up with Chief Ye sooner.

Jiang Xiao Tian peeked at Yang Yun as they rushed towards the border between Da Cheng and Eastern Zhou.

Actually, Jiang Xiao Tian did not understand why his elder brother would let Yang Yun go. He did not expect that his elder brother would allow Yang Yun to catch up after Chief Ye. From his conversation with the chief of the clan last night, they knew that there was nothing that the chief could do to help them.

Weren't they wasting their time?

However, seeing Yang Yun's expression turned the young general's heart soft. Since Yang Yun was determined to look for the old lady, then Jiang Xiao Xian would allow him to go. After all, in Yang Yun's state, he will not listen to their words.

It was not wise to let the matter weighing on Yang Yun's heart as he was to return to his position. It will only disturb him while he went on his mission.

Although his elder brother was usually strict with Yang Yun, Jiang Xiao Tian knew that his elder brother always had a soft spot for their brother-in-law.

Or else, their third brother would not be jealous of Yang Yun.

That was also why his elder brother was upset when Yang Yun acted recklessly during his mission, leaving him with no other choice but to relieve Yang Yun off his duty. Afterward, Jiang Xiao Xian has been brooding over Yang Yun for weeks. His brother expected that Yang Yun would find him in the camp to beg for his position. When Yang Yun did not show up, Jiang Xiao Xian was disappointed.

Jiang Xiao Tian and Yang Yun traveled non stop until they reached a small town in Eastern Zhou. When they arrived, the sky has turned dark. Jiang Xiao Tian went to a small eatery place and ordered two bowls of noodles and some tea. He whispered something to the servant, and the servant retreated after a nod.

"Second Brother, you think that Chief Ye is staying in this town?" Yang Yun asked.

"We'll find out soon," Jiang Xiao Tian replied calmly.

The servant returned with two bowls of noodles with a middle-aged man behind him. After the servant placed down the dishes and returned inside, the middle-aged man approached their table.

The middle-aged man was surprised to see Jiang Xiao Tian as he did not expect to see him there. He immediately bowed and greeted Jiang Xiao Tian. "Master. You have an instruction for me?"

Jiang Xiao Tian greeted the man and told him that he was looking for a group of people who might have arrived in town earlier today. The man nodded and went out. Jiang Xiao Tian turned to Yang Yun and handed him a pair of chopsticks. "Eat before your noodle gets cold. Don't worry. We'll get news soon."

Yang Yun looked at the noodle before him and asked, "Second Brother, you know who that man is?"

Jiang Xiao Tian replied him with a mysterious smile before he ate his noddle.

Seeing that Second Brother did not want to tell him anything, Yang Yun stared at the bowl. His stomach began to rumble, and he began to eat slowly.

The middle-aged man returned shortly after both Jiang Xiao Tian and Yang Yun finished their meal. He whispered something to Jiang Xiao Tian before he retreated inside the eatery.

"Let's go," Jiang Xiao Tian said to Yang Yun. "Chief Ye and the others are staying in an inn at the end of the road."

Yang Yun nodded. He left some money on the table and went after the Second Brother. When they arrived at the inn, Jiang Xiao Tian went to the counter and exchanged a few words with the receptionist. After Jiang Xiao Tian slipped a piece of silver to the receptionist, the man nodded and went inside.

"They should be here soon," Jiang Xiao Tian said.

Subconsciously, Yang Yun clenched his hand into a fist. The thought of reuniting with Mingyue made his heart jumped. However, he knew that he should not have too much hope. The Jiang brothers had told him earlier that Chief Ye thought that it would be impossible for them to bring back Mingyue. But Yang Yun could not extinguish the hope in him. It was the only lead he has.

After waiting for a while longer, the receptionist appeared with both Chief Ye and Prince Lu Wei.

Chief Ye looked at her guests with a bit of surprise and curiosity. A frown appeared on the old lady's face when she saw Yang Yun. She walked towards them and greeted Jiang Xiao Tian.

"Commander Jiang, why are you here?" Prince Lu Wei asked. "Is there anything we can do for you?"

Jiang Xiao Tian glanced at Yang Yun before he explained his reason.

Chief Ye looked at Yang Yun and contemplated. Then, she spoke, "Let's go to my room. It's not suitable to speak here."
