Chapter 163 Plan to Act

"Yes, yes, please wait a moment, it will be ready in a minute." The shopkeeper of Chaliao quickly picked it up and turned around and went into the kitchen in the back.

Brother Huafu gave his two subordinates a wince, and then walked straight to the top seat and sat carefully at the tea table.

Seeing that the little guy in Chaliao finally had nothing to do with him, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to haunt them.

"I'm sorry for the two guests. I've kept you waiting for a long time. What do you want to drink?"

Huanxuan said, "Just have a pot. We are still in a hurry."

The little guy Ying Nuo turned to make tea. At this time, Huanying caught a glimpse of the corner of his eyes that the two strong-dressed men helped out an old woman in black from the carriage, and helped her all the way to the tea table and sat down opposite to the brother of Huafu.

Huanxuan keenly found that this woman was not only old, but also a lame. Even if she was supported by two strong men, she didn't seem to be able to grasp the balance and had to stagling from time to time. After the two men helped the old woman sit firmly, they stood behind her left and right. The old woman took a look at the prince of Huafu, and then turned her face to look at Huan Ying. Huan Ying and Shi Feng quickly pretended to be inadvertent, turned their bodies sideways, and tried to turn their backs on Brother Huafu.

In a short time, the tea from the two tables came up one by one. In silence and silence, Mr. Huafu quickly ran out of tea and greeted his men to drag the old woman back into the car. He also got into the carriage. The gorgeous carriage drove away from the tea house and went away.

When Huanxuan and Shi Feng saw each other leaving, they immediately put down the tea bowl, walked to the tea shop one after the other, knocked on the counter and said, "How much is the shopkeeper? We have to go."

"Just give me two cents." The shopkeeper smiled and apologized, "I'm sorry to neglect you two today. I'll come back for tea another day. I'll treat you two to a good pot."

With a happy smile, he raised his jaw and asked in the direction of the carriage, intentionally or unintentionally, "Who is this? What a big shelf. It scared us to death just now."

The shopkeeper of the tea house looked at them up and down, and then said, "You two are not locals. No wonder you don't know. This person's name is He Ning, but he is a big red man under the King of Wu. I heard that he is not only good at making suggestions for the King of Wu, but also can change his appearance. No one knows him. It's broken."

Huanxuan and Shi Feng looked at each other. It turned out that this person was He Ning. In the past, he had only heard something, but now when he really saw it, it really didn't look like a good thing. Huanying paid for the tea and continued with Shi Feng in the direction of Wu County.

Huanying said to Shi Feng, "The king of Wu went to the front line to supervise the battle, and He Ning left the palace of Wu again. He must have done something for the king of Wu, so he also brought his entourage."

Shi Feng said, "It's understandable to bring an entourage, but why did he take an old woman on the road? Is it He Ning's mother?"

Huanying thought for a moment and said, "It's not very similar. Although it seems that he should be He Ning's elder from his age, if he is a mother or a closer person, He Ning should be more respectful, but I have noticed that when the two men helped the old woman, they were very rude, and there was still impatient on their faces. . He Ning turned a blind eye to it. In addition, when drinking tea, as two strong men, they should stand beside He Ning, but they have been guarding a lame old woman, and their posture and expression are extraorary. Isn't it too strange and unreasonable?

"Then shall we keep up with He Ning and see what the King of Wu sent him to do," Shi Feng asked.

"No" Huanying said decisively, "Now the King of Wu and He Ning are not in the palace. This is an excellent time to spy on the palace. Once you miss it, I don't know when it will be next time. Let's go to visit the Wu Palace first."

The two of them urged all the way and arrived in Wu County the next morning. They were happy to see that Wu County was really prosperous. It was an important economic city in the south. There were a lot of business trips. They also dressed up as a businessman with Shi Feng and found an inn to stay in the bustling area of the city.

Shi Feng was a little worried that the eyes and ears of the inns in the city were too mixed, so he asked Huanling why he didn't go to find a remote store on the street.

Huanying said, "When we traveled yesterday, even the shopkeeper of Chaliao could see that we were foreigners, which showed that our speech and behavior was different from the locals of the State of Wu. It was better to admit this point frankly than to deliberately cover it up. So what do foreigners do most when they come to Wu County? Of course, they are doing business, right? Since they are among businessmen, it is naturally inconvenient to find some remote stores. How can there be no business that does not inquire about the information to find the way, but hides in a deserted inn.

Shi Feng nod admiringly and said, "Yes, the military commander is still thoughtful."

Huanxuan stared at Shi Feng and said, "Didn't I tell you? Don't call me a military commander or a military commander when you go out. Call me the eldest grandson."

"Oh, the last general shouted smoothly." Shi Feng smiled shyly and walked into a seemingly elegant inn with Huanxuan.

As soon as the two walked in, the shopkeeper greeted them politely. Are the two guests at the top or staying in the hotel?

"stay in the store," Shi Feng replied.

"Please at the counter of the two guests, do you have the pass token of the State of Wu?" The second child of the shop asked.

"Pass token?" Shi Feng stared at the shopkeeper, "Of course there is a pass token, but do you also need to look at the master's pass token when you live in your store?"

"Guests, don't get me wrong," the shopkeeper replied, "It's not just ours. All the inns in Wujun City, Danfan guests have to show their pass tokens and check them out before they can check in."

"Why is your Wujuncheng different from other places? We haven't seen any inn that wants to see our pass tokens all the way." Shi Feng said dissatisfiedly, "It feels like you have been a thief in a store."

"Don't think too much about it." The shopkeeper who has been burying the accounts in the counter raised his head at this time and explained with a smile, "Now the world is chaotic. After all, it is not as normal as before. Wu Jun is also the capital of the land of the King of Wu. Naturally, it will be more strictly checked than other places, but this is also to ensure everyone's safety. In case those ulgar-intentioned ducklings are small and sneaking into the city to violate discipline and make troubles, I hope the guests will understand more and forgive them more. If it weren't for the order of the King of Wu, who wants to offend the guests and make the guests unhappy? If you don't check the pass token, you won't register the guest's situation in detail. Once it is found out by the King of Wu, not to mention that the inn will be closed, even the whole family will be in good.

"Ok, just show him the pass token." Huanling said in a rough voice to Shi Feng, "It's all like the local customs."

After checking the pass token, the shopkeeper asked Huanying in detail about their names and place of origin, where to go, whether to go to Wujun, whether to go through or to do business, and other very trivial and detailed questions, and recorded them one by one. Naturally, they had already come up with a set of words, and their answers were reasonable and did not show any flaws, so they finally stayed in this inn smoothly.

After putting down the things, giving their horses to the shopkeeper, and taking them to the stables in the backyard to feed them, Huanying and Shi Feng said hello to the shopkeeper, saying that they were going out for a walk and didn't have to leave dinner for them.

So they went out of the inn and wandered all the way to the street, saying that they were wandering around, but they finally wandered around the Wu Palace. The Wu Palace is different from the Wei Palace. Because Wu Juncheng is very large, bustling and lively, the Wu Palace is located in Wu Juncheng, which is only nearly two streets away from Wu Juncheng. Come on, there is a spacious avenue leading to the palace.

Huanxuan and Shi Feng walked on the street outside the palace for a while. They saw a stall selling sugar oil fruits. The sign said "Lin Ji", so they went over and took out two copper coins and said to the man selling sugar oil fruits, "Brother, two strings."

The man took the copper plate and weighed it in his hand. There is no doubt that the front pattern of these two copper plates is ordinary, but there is only one guard on the back. The man saw it in his eyes and quietly put the copper plate in his arms. Then he handed Huanxuan two strings of sugar and oil fruits and said, "You two can go straight down this street and you can find the place you want."

Huanxuan took the sugar oil fruit and gave it to Shi Feng a string. The two continued to walk forward while eating. When they were about to get to the street, the man selling sugar oil fruit caught up with them with a burden. "Come with me this way." When the man passed them, he only said this in a hurry.

Huanxuan and Shi Feng followed him from afar. They turned around a few streets and came to a small bungalow area. The man entered one of the doors and closed the door. Soon Huanxuan and Shi Feng also got in. When they entered, the man locked the door and took them to the back hall. Then he knelt down with his fist and said, "Lin Hao has been waiting for the two adults here for a long time."

It turned out that Lin Hao was from Mingsha Camp, and the two copper plates were also the basis for each other.

"Get up quickly, where are the others?" Huanxuan asked quickly.

"We take turns to monitor the Wu Palace. If adults want to see them, the last general can come and attract them immediately," Lin Hao said.

"Well," Huanying nodded and asked, "Has anything happened in the Wu Palace in the past two days?"

Lin Hao replied, "Since the king of Wu left the palace, everything in the palace has been as calm as usual, but the day before yesterday, He Ning, the staff of the king of Wu, left the palace in a big carriage. Where is He Ning going and what happened? So far, the last general has not found out the real news."

"I know," Huanying said lightly, "General Shi and I happened to meet him on the way here, but we also knew later that he was He Ning. Let's talk about He Ning's movements to us for the time being. Hurry up and recruit people. I want to visit the Wu Palace at night."

"Is it tonight?" Lin Hao asked in surprise, "But the two big talents have just arrived. Don't you need to rest for one night before making plans?"

Huanying looked at Shi Feng and said in a low voice, "I suddenly have a bad feeling. I have to find out the situation in the Wu Palace as soon as possible, otherwise we will miss the opportunity if we are late. Let's act tonight."

Shi Feng approved and told Lin Hao, "One day earlier and one night later. Anyway, you are all going to explore. You have been lurking near the Wu Palace for so long. You should also know the general situation in the Wu Palace. Call everyone here and let's discuss it together. Now there are still several hours left. It's enough for us to be fully prepared."

"No, the last general obeyed." Lin Hao agreed and turned around and out of the house. In less than an hour, he found all the brothers in the Mingsha camp and returned to the rented house.

In the middle of the night, the harem canteen of the Wu Palace suddenly caught fire, and the fire quickly became more and more intense. The housers and people in the palace turned into a pot of porridge in panic. They saw people running in a hurry everywhere, and crying for help came one after another. After the bodyguards in the palace came to fight the fire, the palace slowly regained calm.
