It was pitch-black on the sea. The storm raged and the waves rose high.
After the storm, the clouds parted and the moonlight shone on the surface of the sea, which had gradually calmed down.
The abnormal weather on the sea came and went quickly.
Suddenly, the island was lit up with a large fire. Torches were lit on the ships and gradually, the ships began to leave the island …
Among the clouds, in an elegant and quiet room, Wei Chu sat alone, drinking wine.
Amorous Affair, he was also a frequent visitor here.
The door opened and Qin Mian came in. She smiled and greeted him, "Master Wei, it's rare for you to visit."
She turned around and closed the door. After sitting down beside Wei Chu, the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
"What's the matter?" Wei Chu asked in a low voice.
Qin Mian poured wine for him and replied in a low voice, "You want to kill Niu Youdao?"
Wei Chu turned around and asked, "Is there a problem?"
Qin Mian said, "You don't have to do anything. The higher-ups will handle it for you. What you need to do now is to disappear for a while."
Wei Chu frowned. "What do you mean?"
Qin Mian said, "To be precise, I want you to fake your death for a while. If you don't die, Niu Youdao won't leave Qi Capital, so there's no way to kill him."
Wei Chu was silent for a while. "How do I explain to the Jin King if I fake my death?"
Qin Mian said, "You can think about this yourself. You know the Jin King better than any of us."
Wei Chu nodded, but he was still a little confused. He couldn't help but ask, "Why did the higher-ups suddenly want to help me get rid of Niu Youdao?"
Qin Mian shook her head. "You know the rules. If it involves other people and matters in the organization, we have to protect them. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Similarly, I'm just passing on the message on behalf of the higher-ups. They won't tell me the specific reason, so I don't know what's going on. You and I just need to follow the instructions! "
She really didn't know why the higher-ups suddenly wanted to kill Niu Youdao.
Wei Chu sighed and said Slowly, "I've been here for many years, but I haven't seen the Commander. Can you help me contact him and let me meet him?"
Qin Mian: "No! You are very important. In order to help your sister to that position, in order to arrange for you to enter the Jin Palace, they have spent too much effort. There is no room for any mistakes. Your identity is top secret, and you can only contact me. The Commander does not know of your existence. This is for your own good and to protect you! I've been staying in Qi Capital for so many years just to protect and cooperate with you. This is my main responsibility. It's not appropriate for the higher-ups to let another person know of your existence! "
She and Wei Chu had come to Qi Capital much earlier than Su Zhao, and Wei Chu and Su Zhao did not know each other's identities.
"Alright!" Wei Chu nodded helplessly. He got up and said, "I'll go back and think about this. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."
Qin Mian reached out and pressed down on his shoulder, forcing him to sit down. "Since you're here, don't let people suspect you. I'll call two girls for you. You can relax before you leave. "
After making the arrangements, Qin Mian returned to the backyard and went straight to Su Zhao's room.
Su Zhao was changing his clothes. When he saw her come in, he asked, "Is everything ready?"
Qin Mian replied, "Yes. Boss, there's actually no need for you to go personally. Everything that needs to be prepared has already been prepared. There's no point in you going personally. "
Su Zhao replied, "No, I won't feel at ease if I don't personally see this batch of warhorses board the ship safely!"
When the two of them came out of the room, Su Zhao had already changed his appearance to that of a handsome man.
They went downstairs to a remote corner. Qin Mian pushed a rockery over, revealing a cave that was filled with water. It looked like a well.
Su Zhao went straight into the water cave and disappeared without a trace.
Qin Mian waited for a while before slowly pushing the rockery back to its original position, covering the entrance of the water cave …
In the alley, there was a seemingly ordinary courtyard. Linghu Qiu walked to the entrance of the courtyard and looked around. He raised his hand and knocked on the door.
It was obvious that someone was peeking through the crack of the door. Then, the courtyard door quickly opened. Hong Xiu appeared and said happily, "Sir, you're back."
Linghu Qiu did not say anything and walked in expressionlessly.
His reaction made Hong Xiu feel extremely guilty.
"Sir." Hong Fu, who heard the sound, bowed but did not get a reply. Instead, she took the golden winged cage that Linghu Qiu handed over to her.
The two sisters looked at each other and followed into the inner hall. Hong Xiu quickly poured tea.
Linghu Qiu walked to the main seat and sat down. He waved his hand and said, "Don't be busy. Let's get down to business."
The two women walked forward and looked at him cautiously. Hong Fu first apologized, "Sir, it's our fault and we failed!"
Linghu Qiu's eyes swept over the two's faces and said in a low voice, "The higher-ups said that this matter was not arranged well by the higher-ups. They said that the failure this time is not your fault. Instead, they implicated you. The higher-ups asked me to apologize on behalf of them!"
The two women bowed together. Hong Xiu asked, "What happened? How could the higher-ups not be able to deal with a Hong Niang? Even if all the people from Fu Fangyuan came out, it would still be impossible!"
Linghu Qiu said, "We were careless. We really did not expect that Guan Fangyi, that bitch, had hidden herself so well. She actually had a Top Grade Heaven Sword Talisman and a Top Grade Mountain Cutting Talisman. The people we sent could not stop her at all. As a result, they fell into her trap and let her escape."
Heaven Sword Talisman? The two women looked at each other in surprise.
Hong Fu asked, "Where did she get the Heaven Sword Talisman? Why didn't we hear anything about it before? "
Linghu Qiu said, "Is this important? The news that you spread was unclear. I just want to know now, how did you get driven out of Fu Fangyi Garden by Guan Fangyi? "
Hong Fu said, "When I was having a secret rendezvous with Niu Youdao, I didn't expect Guan Fangyi to suddenly appear and she saw us. In her jealousy, she chased us sisters out."
Linghu Qiu said, "The higher-ups don't know the situation, but do you think I don't know? Of course, there are some things that the higher-ups don't care about. Guan Fangyi was a person who had a lot of romantic affairs. What kind of man had she not seen? The reputation of the Capital of Qi's Matchmaker had been around for so long. Would it be so easy for her to get jealous over a man? If it was just a normal private meeting and they did not do anything, not to mention my face, would Niu Youdao not be able to stop them? You two tell me honestly, have you already slept with Niu Youdao? "
"Mister!" Hong Xiu and Hong Fu quickly waved their hands. "Absolutely not. Mister, please don't misunderstand!"
Linghu Qiu said, "Don't worry. You did it to complete the mission. I won't blame you if you tell me the truth."
"Mister, we really didn't."
"Mister, that kind of thing really didn't happen."
Linghu Qiu sighed. "Then what exactly happened? Tell me. Do you want me to wait until I go to Fu Fangyi Garden so that Guan Fangyi can point at my nose and give me a good scolding?"
As soon as he said that, the two women's hearts trembled. They understood that Linghu Qiu was definitely going to look for Niu Youdao. It was inevitable that he would meet Guan Fangyi. They could not count on Guan Fangyi to hide the truth for them.
"Mister, that kind of thing really didn't happen. However, that Niu Youdao was indeed shameless and despicable. He made a move on my sister …" Hong Fu recounted what happened. However, some of the more unbearable parts were left out, and she could not bring herself to say it.
Even so, some of Niu Youdao's unbearable behavior had infuriated Linghu Qiu. His face turned green with anger. After listening to what was said, he slammed the table and stood up. He said angrily, "Niu Youdao, you've gone too far! You and I are sworn brothers. How dare you touch a sworn brother's woman. You're simply a beast! "
At this moment, he had completely forgotten that he was the one who initiated the seduction of Niu Youdao. He had also forgotten that he was the one who wanted to kill Niu Youdao.
After recounting what happened that day, the two women were also unbearably ashamed. They lowered their heads and repeatedly replayed the unbearable scene in their minds. They could not bear to look back on it, but they could not get it out of their heads recently!
After finally calming down, Linghu Qiu gritted his teeth and said, "I'll settle this score with him sooner or later! Let me ask you, did he see through your intentions? "
Hong Fu slowly raised her head and said, "From the situation at that time, he didn't seem to be faking it. If he really saw through it, he would not have dared to meet us alone."
Linghu Qiu slowly sat back down and fell into silence.
After a long time, Hong Xiu softly asked, "Mister, what should we do now?"
Linghu Qiu said, "Think of a way to return to Fufang Garden."
Hong Fu said, "If we fail this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to do it again when we return."
The two sisters actually did not want to return to Fufang Garden. It was too embarrassing. If they went to Fufang Garden, they would not be able to raise their heads. How could they endure it!
Linghu Qiu said, "We don't have to worry about this anymore. The higher-ups have already arranged for someone to deal with Wei Chu. Next, we just need to know his whereabouts!"
In Fufang Garden, Niu Youdao's hair was disheveled as he bathed in the morning sun. He sat on the steps under the eaves and read the secret letter in his hand.
After reading it, Niu Youdao said, "Tell them not to act rashly and alert the enemy. Wait for my news!"
"Yes!" Shen Qiu gave a fist salute and turned to leave.
Niu Youdao's gaze fell back onto the letter. Gongsun Bu had sent word that there had been some movement on the island. The warhorses that the Northern State had requested had finally been moved. He had been in the Qi Capital for a long time, waiting for this day to come!
"A good dog doesn't block the way!" Guan Fangyi swayed her hips as she came out of the house. Seeing that he did not move even after scolding her, she asked, "Why are you in a daze?"
Niu Youdao passed the secret letter over his shoulder and then passed it to her.
After reading it, Guan Fangyi walked to the side and adjusted her skirt. She sat beside him and said in a low voice, "There's movement on the thing that you want to rob?"
Niu Youdao did not deny it. He took the letter back and crushed it. He asked, "Have the people at Pitfall Mountain been arranged?"
Guan Fangyi said, "Eighth Brother is already in place. We're just waiting for the news from here."
Niu Youdao said, "Is the King of England still not willing to see me?"
Guan Fangyi said, "No! I say, why do you insist on not letting him go? Aren't you in contact with the King of Jade? Can't you just look for the King of Jade? "
Niu Youdao said, "The person who understands his opponent the most is his opponent's opponent. The Princess of Jade and I have only just met, and the King of Gold has already come looking for me. What does this mean? It means that the King of Jade's every move will easily attract the King of Gold's attention. This kind of thing cannot be taken lightly. I cannot take this risk. "
