Chapter 2360 Turned into one of our own
Chengwu looked at the letter in his hand. "Manager Rong, what did the letter say?"
Rong Hou handed him the letter, and the latter was shocked after reading it. "How could this be?"
What are your thoughts?
Cheng Wu lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then leaned close to Rong Hou's ear and whispered a few words, "I think we can do this..."
Rong Hou nodded. "Let's do as you say. Let's go see them."
The two walked toward the courtyard where Master Cheng was being held. Shu Yu had already woken up, and the guards brought him breakfast.
But Zhao Xi shook his head and said, "The food has been drugged."
Cheng Daren said, "Earlier, Cheng Xian and the others tried to escape to deliver a message. Although they failed, the other side has been drugging our food as a precaution, which has weakened us considerably. We can move around normally, but breaking out is impossible."
This is also why they didn't tie up Master Cheng and his group.
Master Cheng himself was skilled in martial arts, and his three sons in the house had all practiced martial arts since childhood. Even if their skills were so-so, they were all trained professionals.
Shu Yu looked at the food in front of her, her brows furrowing slightly; she didn't really want to eat.
Married people are already used to it; they don't want to eat, but they have even less energy if they don't eat.
Just as Shu Yu was struggling with her decision, the door opened, and Cheng Wu and Rong Hou stood outside.
Before Ronghou could speak, Chengwu laughed, "What's wrong? Can't you eat? I advise you to eat as soon as possible. I'm afraid you'll have even less appetite if I tell you some news later."
Lord Cheng snorted coldly, and Zhao Xi asked, "What news is so disgusting?"
Chengwu, "..."
He scoffed, "General Shen is dead. Now, the 20,000 troops stationed in the southwest are all ours."
Lord Cheng was startled and took two steps back, looking at them in disbelief. "Impossible."
Chengwu tossed him a whistle, something General Shen always carried with him, something he would never part with unless something happened, as Lord Cheng knew.
He immediately lost his breath and rolled backward.
"Lord Cheng."
"father."
"master."
Zhao Xi rushed forward to provide first aid, while Rong Hou looked at Shu Yu and said, "Princess, it's time to take you to see the Abbot of Dongqing Temple again. I've given you a night; you should have figured it out by now."
Shu Yu's lips were pursed, and her expression was solemn.
She didn't know if what Chengwu said was true, but if it was, then the situation was indeed developing in the worst possible direction.
She gave Yingxi and the others a reassuring look, then followed Ronghou out the door.
After walking a few steps, Rong Hou took advantage of the fact that no one was around and suddenly whispered, "General Shen is fine, he's just missing."
Shu Yu was taken aback and looked up at him.
Rong Hou, however, had already walked quickly forward.
Shu Yu subtly curled the corners of her lips. It seemed that Rong Hou had finally figured it out.
It happened even faster than she expected; starting with him was definitely the right decision.
When they reached the entrance of the main courtyard of Dongqing Temple, Ronghou suddenly said, "That concubine, Lady Wang, who is with Lord Cheng is one of our people."
Shu Yu raised her eyebrows. Sure enough, they had also planted an inside man in Lord Cheng's room.
Since Ronghou is so pragmatic, Shuyu will naturally not let him down.
"Don't worry, Manager Rong, you'll definitely be rewarded for your contributions."
After saying that, she stepped into the courtyard of the abbot of Dongqing Temple.
