Chapter 1096: Awaken
Little Yin asked, “Who’s Miaobai? You mean me?”
Qi Xuansu immediately came to his senses and corrected himself. “Little Yin, why are you here?”
As soon as he said it, Qi Xuansu realized that if Little Yin was here, then Zhang Yuelu must have arrived as well.
Sure enough, Little Yin spoke matter-of-factly. “I came from Dongdu Prefecture with Second Deputy Zhang on the flying ship.”
Dongdu Prefecture was not far from Poluo at all. If one traveled by sea, it was actually the closest prefecture.
With Little Yin interrupting his thoughts, Qi Xuansu stopped dwelling on the dream. He simply sat up and asked, “Where’s Second Deputy Zhang?”
Little Yin replied, “She’s very busy.”
Qi Xuansu suddenly realized something. While he was unconscious, who had been handling the situation in Poluo? Was it Madam Qi? Could it have been Zhang Yuelu?
However, both of them, no matter how capable, lacked official standing.
Madam Qi was only a fourth-rank Jijiu Daoist master on paper. No matter how much hidden influence she wielded, she could not publicly preside over the Daoist Mansion.
Zhang Yuelu’s rank was high enough, but she was not from the Poluo Daoist Mansion. She could not openly cross jurisdiction and take charge.
It could not possibly be Wang Jiaohe, could it?
