Nongzhang Garden was not far from Qingzhu Courtyard. Both courtyards could only be accessed by passing through a heavily guarded archway.
However, Nongzhang Garden was situated closer to the outer perimeter, and one of its gates faced outward. Yu Jiuqing had assigned additional guards to that particular gate.
That was the gate where Mu Shuangshuang had been furtively peeking at her before.
But since she was heading to Qingzhu Courtyard this time, she left through a different gate. For anyone else to reach the vicinity of this gate, they would have to pass through either Nongzhang Garden or the heavily guarded archway. Otherwise, it was impossible.
In other words, ordinary people couldn't get into this area. The only ones who could were people Yu Jiuqing trusted.
And yet, someone was tailing her in a place like this. Shen Qing didn't think it was someone sent by Yu Jiuqing. He had already assigned a Hidden Guard to her side; there was no need to send another person.
