Yellow Dragon City
As soon as Lin Xun walked along the street, a loud and noisy atmosphere came around him.
The spacious streets were neat and clean. There were lots of pedestrians and incessant stream of horses and carriages on the road, bustling and hustling. It showed a prosperous and noisy scene.
It was almost as busy as the Mist City.
Lin Xun rambled like a tourist, viewing the sites all the way.
But Lu Shaoyun’s face was gloomy as he followed Lin Xun step by step like a servant while was holding back his feelings.
“Interesting.”
Suddenly, Lin Xun chuckled to himself.
“What do you say?”
Lu Shaoyun didn’t understand.
But Lin Xun ignored him and went straight ahead.
Lu Shaoyun’s expression changed heavily. He would like to eat Lin Xun alive. This guy was too hateful!
But in the end, he had to restrain his resentment and follow up.
...
“Attention! The target appears! And there is a man in nice clothing with him.”
“Send a sentry to keep an eye on the target, others check the details of the man beside!”
“Remember to be careful. The target is a very dangerous person. Don’t take any action without permission!”
From the moment Lin Xun and Lu Shaoyun entered the Yellow Dragon City, there were many figures looked at them in the dark.
...
Inn of Blessings
Lin Xun asked for two neighbor rooms on the first floor, one for himself, and the other for Lu Shaoyun.
“I’m going to seclude myself for a few days, stay here patiently. If you are killed by poison because of running around, I won’t take the responsiblity for the consequences.”
Lin Xun made a statement and entered his room.
“I...”
As soon as Lu Shaoyun opened his mouth, the door was slammed. Lu Shaoyun twitched his lips. He hated Lin Xun so much that he wanted to have a fight with Lin Xun regardless of everything. How could Lin Xun be such a bully!?
Lu Shaoyun wanted a clear answer rather than being threatened with his safety.
Bu in the end, Lu Shaoyun was dispirited and regret. If he had known this, he would not provoke Lin Xun.
Unfortunately, it was too late to regret.
“I can’t keep still and wait for dying!”
After turning around and entering his room, Lu Shaoyun thought for a long time and finally decided that he had to rely on himself. He could not expect bastard Lin Xun to show mercy and let him go!
As soon as he clenched his teeth, he picked up the pen and paper and began to write.
Lu Shaoyun was the son of Lu Tianzhao, the executive of the headquarter of Keystone Business in the Forbidden City. Although he was ignorant, domineering and arrogant, he was not a fool. He knew that what he could rely on at present was his identity.
After a letter was written and sealed, Lu Shaoyun went out of the room, secretly called in a waiter, gave him a message and gave him a gold coin.
The waiter hurried away excitedly.
After all this, Lu Shaoyun was relieved at last. He went back to his room consciously and waited.
15 minutes later.
Several men in brocade clothes followed behind an old man, hurried to the Inn of Blessings and entered Lu Shaoyun’s room.
...
At the same time, Lin Xun’s room was empty without his figure. There was only a raised floor in the corner.
But soon, after a slight click, the opened floor was closed again. People couldn’t see a trace at all if they didn’t check it carefully.
...
At the beginning of the night, those brocade clothes men and the old man left the Inn of Blessings.
In the room, Lu Shaoyun smiled smugly and sipped his drink. He was now at ease.
“Did you find out?”
At the diagonal opposite of the Inn of Blessings, there was a tea house. An ordinary looking man wearing a hat casually asked.
“It is found that the man next to the target is Lu Shaoyun, whose father is Lu Tianzhao. He is an executive in the headquarter of Keystone Business, Forbidden City.”
Opposite to the man in the bamboo hat, a skinny young man with dark complexion reported in a low voice.
“At the same time, the Lu family is also a medium-sized aristocratic family in the Forbidden City. It’s a little bit inferior to those ancient clans with a long history.”
“Keystone Business? Lu Family? How dare they join in this action? ”
The man in bamboo hat was stunned. He frowned for a moment and asked, “What’s about the relationship between Lu Shaoyun and the target?”
“It’s not found yet.”
The thin young man shook his head.
A fat man came from the distance by then.
He sat down on the opposite side of the bamboo-hat man and said, “Boss, I found out that Lu Shaoyun’s previous message was to ask for help from Li Tianbao, the manager of Keystone Business in the Yellow Dragon City.”
The man in the bamboo hat squinted his eyes and a subtle light flashed through his eyes. He said “Unexpectedly, Lu Shaoyun is brave enough to use his father’s power to find someone to help the target? He is really reckless!”
If Lu Shaoyun heard this sentence, he would spit blood out of this misunderstanding. The reason why he asked for help was just to save his own life. How could he volunteer his help for Lin Xun?
Pitifully, Lu Shaoyun was not here.
So the misunderstanding rose in this way.
“Boss, those guys are out.”
Suddenly, the thin young man on the other side opened his mouth. So the man in the bamboo hat and the fat man looked at the door of Inn of Blessings at the same time.
They saw the men in brocade clothes supported an old man and left with a carriage.
“Boss, that old guy is Li Tianbao, the manager of Keystone Business in the Yellow Dragon City!”
The fat man’s eyes brightened.
The man in bamboo hat finally confirmed that Lu Shaoyun was really going to help the target.
He saw Li Tianbao with a group of people walking into the Inn of Blessings. No one would believe that it was just a coincidence!
“I didn’t expect that the young master of Lu family is so brave. He even dares to go against us in order to help the target. It’s really amazing.”
The thin youth sneered. He was obviously talking irony.
“Brave? I think he is leading his father and his whole family into a trap! No one can save his father since he dares to fight with us at this time! Keystone Business could do nothing in this thing.”
The bamboo hatted man took a deep breath and ordered, “Mobilize all forces and monitor the Inn of Blessings closely. Pay attention to the movements of Keystone Business in the Yellow Dragon Ctiy. I need more detailed information.”
After a pause, the bamboo hatted man continued, “Send some people to act as a waiter in the Inn of Blessings. Check closely and find out what the target is planning! If he wants to against our encirclement with the help of Lu Shaoyun, he is too naive! ”
“Yes!”
The thin young man and the fat man took the lead.
Before long, the bamboo hatted man also got up and left in a hurry. He sealed the news with secret method and passed it on by a Wind-shadow Hawk.
...
In an old mansion of the Forbidden City
Bang!
Chi Cangmei couldn’t control the anger in her heart. She smashed the table in front of her with one hand, which made the debris flying.
Her eyes were as sharp as cold saber, and her whole body was full of pressing momentum. She said coldly, “The action in Green Willow Town is failed in the same way! Don’t you know how to arrange it without Xu Qianjing? ”
A number of deputies around were silent and looked gloomy.
The Wind-shadow Hawk sent back the news about the operation of the Green Willow Town, and there were also the records of the battle.
She couldn’t bear the anger in her heart when she saw that so many forces had been deployed to lay a vast net for the target but still failed.
The most embarrassing thing for Chi Cangmei was that in this battle of the Green Willow Town, the short crossbows used by the target were all from the Chi family!
Their own weapons were used by the enemy! This was a silent slap on her face!
“Princess Mei, you weren’t there in the last few actions, so you didn’t know the situation. In fact the failure of this operation is no different from the previous ones. It’s not a tactical problem, but a problem of a powerful target. ”
Some people made an ambiguous statement, evoking acknowledgement from others.
They had been cooperating with Xu Qianjing in the layout and action before, and they had seen how the target broke through the suppressions again and again.
But Chi Cangmei participated in the layout for the first time, so it was normal that she didn’t understand the situation.
However, although this word was true, it seemed so harsh for Chi Cangmei, which made her face longed. She laughed with anger, “So you think it’s normal for this action to fail?”
All the people suddenly trembled in their hearts. They shook their heads at once. Chi Cangmei, who was in rage, could lose her temper at any time. So they didn’t want to annoy Chi Cangmei.
At this time, a guard hurried into the room and reported, “There is news from the front line that the target has appeared in the Yellow Dragon City, but it’s strange this time that beside the target, another person named Lu Shaoyun appeared...”
The guard introduced the situation quickly.
After listening, all the deputies were furious.
“How dare Lu Shaoyun! Doesn’t he want to live! ”
“I know Lu Shaoyun, his father is a powerful man in Keystone Business, but he is extremely powerless. He is always flirting and domineering. I wonder if this guy’s brain is made up of shit to dare to fight with us!”
“Whether there is Keystone Business or the Lu Family beside Lu Shaoyun, since he unwittingly chooses to help the target, he is our enemy!”
These deputies were all from powerful families in the Forbidden City. When it came to comparison of identity, they were even more honorable than Lu Shaoyun. So they would not put Lu Shaoyun in their eyes naturally.
Knowing that Lu Shaoyun helped Lin Xun, these young men were immediately enraged.
They couldn’t kill Lin Xun for the moment, but if they want to deal with Lu Shaoyun, it was not a matter at all!
If Lu Shaoyun knew this, what would he do? Would he cry or would it cause him to die of anger?
“Send my oral message to the Lu Family to ask them whether it is Lu Shaoyun’s own idea or the advice from his family. My patience is limited. Let them give me a clear answer as soon as possible!”
Chi Cangmei appeared calm now; after a little thought, she made a decision.
