Cretaceous Crack
The sound of a tree branch ringing as the wheels of a carriage passed through it.
"Aunt Xi do you feel scared?" Jia asked as she continued to spur the two horses pulling their carriage.
"I'm used to this atmosphere" Aunt Xi replied in the carriage.
Now they are both heading east to pick up the former Prime Minister's Concubine.
Yeah, just the two of you. Because if it was too much it would even add to the suspicion, even when Jia left Liang had already prepared a fake Jia in the Harem.
They disguised themselves as merchants carrying some spices and a jade slip signifying that they were official merchants.
"Aunt Xi we are starting to enter the border" Jia said as she looked at the gate in front of her and several soldiers stood guard.
Aunt Xi instantly tidied up her disguise.
"Please show permission to cross the border Miss!" Said the Soldier.
Jia immediately took out his jade, the soldier nodded.
"What did you bring?" Ask.
"It's just a new spice coming up and we want to sell it in the east immediately" explained Jia, one soldier inspecting the crate that was the spice beanie.
"Who is the woman with you?" Ask curiga.
"Ah, that's my mother" Jia replied steadily.
The soldier who was inspecting the carriage gave a nod and the door was opened immediately.
"Please pass by Miss" said the soldier who had questioned Jia.
"Thank you"
Jia immediately drove both of his horses through that gate. Luckily they had time to communicate with the ruler here who was none other than Father Jiao Feng so that the door was opened for the merchants.
The carriage began to walk towards the mountains towards the eastern Dragon quic. But when they were at the foot of the mountain Jia stopped the carriage and removed their horses from the rope connecting to the carriage.
"Ready Aunt?" Jia asked while helping Aunt Xi ride a horse.
"certain"
Jia finally made sure Aunt Xi boarded the kudan and she covered their carriage with a few leaf twigs.
Jia took the lead at the front by keeping hold of Aunt Xi's horse rope.
The tide continued until the sun began to rise.

The gate of the Dragon temple was already in sight, a huge gate with circular dragon carvings.
Jia descended his horse and rang the bell beside the gate.
Before long a lady bus opened the gate.
"What are you doing?" The monk asked as he looked towards Jia and Aunt Xi.
"We want to see Madame Yelan" Jia said as she displayed the emperor's official jade.
The monk instantly paid his respects upon seeing the emperor's official jade as it signified the emperor's orders officially and of course secretly.
"Please pass by here" said the monk, he immediately opened the gate and invited Jia in.
Jia and Aunt Xi led their horses into the gate and the first sight they saw was a large building with the symbol of the Dragon and a myriad of flower trees there.
The monk called some of his friends to take the two horses to his place.
"Through here madam" said the Monk leading Jia to the side of the Great Building. Jia and Aunt Xi kept their hoods on even though they noticed my bus there a lot.
It turned out that the Monk was carrying Jia and Aunt Xi towards the temple that was beside the large building.
"Yelan is inside and is praying, maybe she will be finished soon so please wait" explained the monk as he invited Jia and Aunt Xi to sit in the front seat of the temple.
"It's the second time I've been here, but somehow it still feels weird" Aunt Xi said.
The atmosphere here is very quiet because the monks are told not to talk if not necessary.
Before long a beautiful woman came out of the temple and Jia was very surprised when she saw her appearance. The woman sumuran her mother but looks like Jia's age.
"Mrs Yelan?" Jia asked to make sure.
"I'm Yelan, who are you?" Yelan asked confusedly.
Jia again showed the Emperor's official Jade and Yelan who saw it immediately saluted Jia.
Yelan looked around and invited Jia to the back of the Temple and to the Gazebo there. Jia and Aunt Xi then opened their hoods.
"What did His Majesty send you?" Ask Yelan.
"Miss you remember the cause you divorced the Prime Minister?" Ask Aunt Xi directly.
Yelan looked shocked and shocked there.
"What's really going on?" Ask Yelan.
"The child that the Prime Minister abused at that time was Miss Feng who became the Royal Concubine but she had already died by suicide" Jia explained when she saw Aunt Xi could not explain.
Yelan covered her mouth in disbelief, that night she caught her husband abusing a small child but she did not know that it was concubine Feng. Eventually she was caught too, so her husband wanted to kill Yelan. Luckily, he escaped and became a monk here.
"Is that true?" Asked Yelan who was still shocked.
Jia nodded.
"I'm sorry until now, because at that time I couldn't save the boy" said Yelan.
"Not to think about Madam" Reply Jia.
"Mrs Yelan, I have a request as the one who used to nurture Consort Feng" Aunt Xi said as she knelt.
"Please Madam testify to the incident" Pinta Aunty Xi.
"Miss you don't have to kneel" Yelan said helping Aunt Xi wake up.
"But I have to ask permission from the head of the temple first" Yelan said.
"Sure, let me ask for permission" Jia said.
Yelan immediately led them towards the head of the temple located behind the Temple.
the residence was between the bamboo forest.
Finally they arrived in front of a simple house.
Yelan entered the house and looked for the temple chief.
"What's wrong?" Asked a voice behind Jia.
Jia immediately jumped in shock and stroked his chest.
"Hey young lady I'm not a ghost you should be afraid of" said the old lady.
"introduce this temple chief" Yelan said.
"Hail the head of the temple" Honor Jia and Aunt Xi together.
"You must have important business to come here" Guess the head of the temple.
"Really head" Reply Jia.
"Then please sit down and tell me your needs" Invite the temple chief to let them sit down.
Jia and Aunt Xi are still riveted given the code Yelan to obey.
"Tell me"
Finally Jia told them everything and their request to bring Yelan to the Capital. The head of the temple just nodded his head listening to Jia's story without cutting.
"Hmm, human life is indeed unique" the Temple Coconut said as he drank his tea.
"Nobody knows what happens next in human life. Death and life are very close to us"
"You can take Yelan, but on one condition"
