The Key

When they were far from earshot of the guest palace, Li Wenmin halted again. "Did you see what I did there, Xiao Yue?" he asked, making sure she would learn from his methods.

Li Xueyue nodded her head. "Yes, you made it look like you were conversing with them. In reality, it was a tactic to lower their guards and wait for information to slip out."

"And it did." Li Wenmin chuckled. "Intimidation will only shut a person's mouth. We have to be pleasant so they're open to share."

"We can safely conclude one thing," Li Wenmin added on. "Yu Zhen was not heading to Hanjian."

Li Xueyue nodded in agreement, relief instantly flooded her. However, it was suddenly replaced by uncertainty. If he wasn't heading to Hanjian, then where did he go? It wasn't like he had any other business to deal with. 

Wuyi was still foreign territory to Yu Zhen. Unless, he had a friend here? She ruled out that possibility. It simply doesn't make sense.
