275 He Should Know Something About I (2/2)
”I will go now...” Xiao Fang quickly made a decision and directly tried to find Uncle Qiu.
Xiao Fang found him near Bao Bei's cage --- just like what Lin Jian had predicted before. Thus, she knew that Lin Jian was correct. ”Godfather, are you busy?” Xiao Fang asked with a wide smile.
”Ah, Xiao Fang... not really... Is there something that you want to ask?” Uncle Qiu asked her directly. Judging from Xiao Fang's curious look, she must have something to talk about.
”Godfather... how do you know?!” Xiao Fang asked in surprise.
Uncle Qiu rolled his eyes. ”You are my goddaughter. I watch you grow up from small until now ah~ How could I not understand your expression?”
”Ah... that's also true,” Xiao Fang laughed in embarrassment.
”So... what is it about?” Uncle Qiu asked.
”Godfather ah~ what is actually inside that place?” Xiao Fang pointed at the forbidden place. ”You have been here for a long time, so you should know something about it, right?”
Uncle Qiu furrowed his eyebrows. ”You have never asked this question before. What's with the sudden question?”
Xiao Fang admitted truthfully. ”I become curious because of last night's commotion ah~... Suddenly, there were a lot of guards anywhere...”
”You asked them about it?” Uncle Qiu asked. He didn't want Xiao Fang to be involved in this matter, but it seemed like it was too late. He had tried to prevent the guards from coming to Xiao Fang's courtyard, so how come she knew about this?
Uncle Qiu didn't calculate wrongly. Xiao Fang actually didn't know anything about it because she didn't hear any commotion last night. She only knew about this matter from Lin Jian just now.
Xiao Fang nodded. ”Yes, my friend accidentally met those guards and he asked about that matter. I become curious... that's why I asked you about it...” She explained briefly. It would be better if she answered him honestly because it would be easy for him to inquire about what she had just said.
Uncle Qiu sighed. He almost forgot about her new friends. Even though he had prevented the guards from letting them know, if they went out of their room on their own... there would be no way to suppress the news. After all, the whole guards were mobilized last night.
Uncle Qiu nodded his head. He knew about the treasures inside that forbidden place and this matter was only known to a few people that the Han Emperor had trusted. Should he tell Xiao Fang about it?
It wasn't a good thing to know about the thing inside. A lot of people had been killed by the Han Emperor because they accidentally knew about the secret. Because he stayed here, the Han Emperor also gave him a side job --- to pay attention to the forbidden place.
