(Edited at the end of the previous chapter)
Niu Youdao said, "We can't evacuate all of them, or we might alert the enemy. Yuan Se is just next door to the Prince's Mansion, I don't believe that the Misty Pavilion would not pay attention to the situation in the Prince's Mansion. You don't have to worry about the Prince, you shouldn't make too many moves there, I will ask Hong Niang to arrange it. "
Only the princess? Yun Ji was slightly startled, it was hard not to misunderstand, could it be that he was moved by the princess' deep affection?
But on second thought, she felt that it was not right, the princess's appearance was really not flattering, someone like Daoye would not fall in love with her, could it be Silver?
Thinking about it, she could not keep Silver by her side, she still needed the princess to look after her, so nothing could happen to the princess.
Little did she know that the real reason was the hundred thousand Crow Generals, Shang Shuqing held the military power of the hundred thousand Crow Generals, she could not let anything happen to Shang Shuqing.
Lv Wushuang was also a little surprised, she felt that Niu Youdao treated Shang Shuqing specially, she could not help but comb through the information about Shang Shuqing in her mind, she only had a brief memory, now she realized that this woman could be someone that the Misty Pavilion had neglected.
…
It was normal for Guan Fangyi to visit the Prince's Mansion next door, Yuan Se did not restrict the normal operations of Thatched Cottage, at least on the surface, in order not to arouse too obvious suspicion.
After the visit, the relevant personnel in the Prince's Mansion secretly became nervous.
Shang Shuqing was attending classes as usual in the school, but her heart was tense.
She had received Guan Fangyi's notice that after the students were dismissed in the afternoon, she was to stay in the school, Yun Ji would take her away.
Shang Shuqing asked what happened, Guan Fangyi did not reveal too much, only saying that it was Daoye's orders, to act as usual, not to reveal any clues.
This was a whole set of meticulous operations, planned for a long time, the courtyard would cover Shang Shuqing's retreat, Yuan Fang would wait until Shang Shuqing safely left, then the kitchen would serve Yuan Se's dinner.
In the Prince's Mansion, Shang Chaozong pushed the wheelchair, seemingly chatting with Meng Shanming, but his heart was also tense.
Guan Fangyi clearly informed them that tonight, there might be a drastic change at the Thatched Cottage side courtyard. Moreover, it would be an intense battle. The duration of the battle would definitely not be too long. It should be very short, but it would be very dangerous. She told them to be prepared.
What the Taoist Master meant was that they couldn't evacuate everyone. Otherwise, the Misty Pavilion would become suspicious, and the consequences would be many times more serious than this battle.
Lan Ruoting had already left. Even if Lan Ruoting left, it would not raise any suspicions. Lan Ruoting had always been busy with government affairs, dealing with big and small matters. She only needed to leave to handle her affairs.
Meng Shanming could not leave, he did not want to leave this place, it would be too conspicuous.
Shang Chaozong also stayed, he could not leave even if he had something to do, he was the most important person, so that he would not arouse suspicion.
The Shang Chaozong also stayed behind. Even if he had something to do, he couldn't leave. As the most important person, he had to stay behind to avoid suspicion.
The entire Southern Prefecture City, the entire Prince's Mansion, the entire Thatched Cottage, everything seemed normal, but the tense atmosphere was brewing in an invisible place.

Niu Youdao stood at the entrance of the secret cave, looking in the direction of the Southern Prefecture City.
Lv Wushuang silently paced back and forth in the cave. Yuan Gang held the Three Roaring Saber and wiped it.
In an inn near the Cottage, Luo Qiu sat quietly in front of the window, his eyes occasionally glancing at the crack of the window.
Inside the Heroic Martial Hall, Shang Chaozong and Meng Shanming both entered to discuss military affairs.
In the attic, Guan Fangyi saw a lantern hanging in the corner of the room in the direction of the school. Knowing that Shang Shuqing was safe and had been moved, she immediately turned and went down the attic.
When she passed by the kitchen, she saw Yuan Fang under the eaves. Guan Fangyi raised the circular fan in her hand and covered her mouth with it.
When Yuan Fang saw this and received the signal, he immediately turned around and went into the kitchen. He urged the monks of Nanshan Temple to serve the dishes quickly.
Consort Yuan walked around the Cottage, checking the situation. When she returned to Yuan Se's residence, she found Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, the four maidservants who were in charge of Yuan Se's diet. She instructed, "Luo Qiu has been here, the safety of the Holy Lord cannot be neglected. Take out all the poison testing items and check them now."
The four of them immediately took out a small silver bottle and checked on the spot.
To be cautious, Consort Yuan personally checked the items of the four maidservants. After confirming that there were no problems, she let the four maidservants put them away.
After leaving, Consort Yuan went to the kitchen to check. Along the way, she touched her sleeve and found four small silver bottles. She was waiting for an opportunity to deal with the items.
After the four maidservants left, Yuan Chun went into her room and took out the small silver bottle from her sleeve to check. When she turned the silver bottle upside down to check the bottom, her gaze suddenly froze and her expression became solemn.
After that, he walked out of his room, walked around, and went straight to the main room where Yuan Se was.
Yuan Se was sleeping soundly on the recliner in the room. He looked like he was sleeping soundly, but if one opened their Dharma eyes to check, one could see the mana surrounding his body. This was actually a state of cultivation.
When Yuan Chun entered the room, Yuan Se slowly opened his eyes. When he saw that it was her, he opened his eyes completely and smiled.
Yuan Chun took out the small silver bottle and placed it on the tea table beside the recliner. "Something might happen."
Yuan Se glanced at the small bottle. "What's wrong?"
Yuan Chun said, "This is what I usually use to test for poison. Consort Yuan just said that Luo Qiu came over and we have to be careful, so she checked the four of us."
Yuan Se's smile did not change. "Is there a problem?"
Yuan Chun said, "She checked it in front of the four of us and didn't find anything wrong. But after taking this bottle back, I found that something was wrong. I made a mark at the bottom of my bottle, and whenever this bottle leaves my body, I have to check it again. In the end, I found that the mark at the bottom of the bottle is missing … This isn't mine. It's been switched. "
Yuan Se reached out to take the small silver bottle and looked at it. His cheerful smile turned into a grin. "Are you sure that it was just switched and that there wasn't a problem with it before?"
Yuan Chun said, "I've already said that this thing never leaves my body. Once it leaves my body, it will be checked again. You used it during the last meal and it has been with me since just now. It's impossible for anyone else to have come into contact with it. "
Yuan Se opened the silver bottle to take a look and sniffed it. She didn't find anything out of the ordinary, so she put the bottle back on the coffee table. "Has she gone out recently?"
Yuan Chun said, "She has gone out three times in the past few days, but for different periods of time."
Yuan Se asked, "Where is she now?"
Yuan Chun said, "She went to the kitchen, probably to check on your dinner."
"Sigh!" Yuan Se sighed, looking extremely melancholic. "It shouldn't be! There's no one else besides Luo Qiu at this time. It seems that Luo Qiu is already nearby. Logically speaking, if there was such a chance, she wouldn't have waited until now. Hopefully, we're just overthinking things. "
Yuan Chun asked, "What should we do?"
Yuan Se said, "After all, she has been with me for so many years. Maybe it's a misunderstanding. Go and arrange some men, make sure that they are in place. If she really wants to take things too hard … As long as she leaves this place and shows signs of escaping, don't be in a hurry to act. If you want to catch her, catch her with the evidence. If you want to catch both of them, catch them immediately. Try to catch her alive. I want to know why. If she's alive, I want to see her. If she's dead, I want to see her corpse. In short, don't let her escape. "
Yuan Chun was a little hesitant. "If Luo Qiu is really behind this, with Luo Qiu's backing, if you don't act, I'm afraid it'll be hard for us to take her down."
Yuan Se said cheerfully, "You're thinking too much. Luo Qiu's target is me. He won't be able to care about her. Once he succeeds, Luo Qiu will immediately come for me. He won't be able to stay by her side. She won't dare to follow us anymore. She'll definitely escape. "
"Luo Qiu's main force is also here. There won't be any important force protecting her. As long as you arrange your men properly, she won't be able to escape."
"Luo Qiu's reaction is too calm. I'm still a little uncertain and don't dare to leave this place. I was just about to teach him a lesson so that he won't dare to act rashly again. It's good that he's here! She'll be back soon. Don't act rashly and alert the enemy. Go! "
Yuan Chun understood. She nodded, took the small silver bottle, and left quickly.
Yuan Se slowly closed his eyes again. As if nothing had happened, he went back to his cultivation state …
Dinner was ready. A few monks carried the food boxes and followed behind Yuan Fang.
Yuan Fang didn't know the overall plan. He didn't even know what was going to happen. He only knew to act according to the plan.
There were benefits to knowing less. Ignorance made one less afraid. That was why Niu Youdao still understood him.
The few food boxes were stopped at the entrance of Yuan Se's courtyard. Yuan Fei waved her hand and the four maids, Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, took the food boxes and carried them to the dining area.
The group of monks didn't even enter the courtyard. Yuan Fang nodded and bowed before leaving with his men.
Guan Fangyi witnessed everything from the attic. She turned around and whispered to Xu Laoliu, "The few of you must keep a close eye on that woman. Once you notice her leaving, inform me immediately."
"Okay." Xu Laoliu nodded in response, turned around, and left quickly …
Yuan Se sat at the dining table. Looking at the delicacies in the food boxes being served, she nodded happily. "Not bad, not bad."
The four maids, Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, carefully cross-checked every dish on the table. It was equivalent to each dish being checked four times by different people.
After confirming that there were no problems, the four maids carried the empty food boxes and retreated outside.
Yuan Se didn't stand on ceremony. He picked up his chopsticks and started to enjoy the food.
Yuan Fei watched from the side. Occasionally, she would pour wine for him. Occasionally, she would leave. After Yuan Se had enjoyed half of the dishes, she went out again. However, this time, she didn't just leave the dining room, she also left the courtyard.
