"Thank you for your trouble, Taoist priest."

After Master Qingxuan left, Zhao Jingning hurriedly went to Su Ruojin's side, "Sister Jin, shouldn't we prepare for tonight's operation?"

Zhao Jingning felt that they had arrived at Tianning Temple early so that they could act more easily that night. This was also the reason why she had asked Master Qingxuan not to allow anyone to approach their courtyard.

"No, let's rest well today. Tomorrow is when we'll take action," Su Ruojin said calmly, sipping her tea.

"Oh? But isn't there a blessing ceremony for Consort Le tomorrow?"

Zhao Jingning was somewhat puzzled. The prayer ceremony held by the Second Prince would undoubtedly be heavily guarded. Wouldn't it be even more dangerous for them to act at that time?

"Cousin Ning, just listen to me, go and rest now."

Seeing Su Ruojin's calm and composed demeanor, Zhao Jingning's anxious heart calmed down. "Alright, I'll leave everything to you."

As night fell, there was a lot of noise and bright lights in the temple, indicating that the Second Prince and his entourage had arrived.

When the imperial concubines left the palace, their processions were elaborate, so their walking speed was naturally much slower than that of Su Ruojin and the others.

Su Ruojin and Yan Luo changed into night clothes and took advantage of the darkness to arrive at the backyard of the Taoist temple.

As they expected, there were significantly fewer guards today.

But seeing that there were still people guarding the place, Su Ruojin felt relieved.

She was worried that her actions had been discovered last time, and if the other party had moved to a different location, it would be troublesome.

Actually, when the Taoist priest who was chasing them came to his senses, he immediately went to check inside the cave, but found nothing amiss, so he gave up.

The Taoist priest who had been drugged thought he was asleep and dared not utter a word, otherwise he would be in for a world of hurt.

Since everything inside the cave was as usual, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention the strange events of that night, after all, everyone wanted to save their own lives.

Su Ruojin had Yanluo keep watch outside while she slipped away from the guards and sneaked into the cave alone.

The alchemy furnace inside was still burning, and the young Taoists were adding medicinal herbs in an orderly manner, controlling the heat. Several people wearing silver masks were watching the young Taoists with whips in their hands, looking like overseers.

"Hurry up, hurry up, stop dawdling, you'll affect the pill's formation, or I'll use you as a sacrifice for the medicine."

The two silver-masked figures took advantage of a break to walk aside and chat.

"Brother, is the little brat ready for the next medicine offering?"

"We were prepared long ago. Those brats from Yunquan Manor were rescued, and the Left Protector was whipped for it. Now we have to go and capture people again. Fortunately, the brats for the next medicine offering are ready, otherwise we would be the ones being punished."

"Who do you think could have rescued the person from our Left Protector? The Left Protector is the person Master values ​​most, and he is proficient in the Five Elements and the Eight Trigrams. How could anyone have rescued the person from him?"

"Who knows? Master was furious. If it weren't for the Left Protector, anyone else might have been used by Master to refine medicine."

Yunquan Villa, Left Protector?

Su Ruojin narrowed her eyes slightly, so Zhu Chao is the left protector of Tianning Temple?

"The Second Prince will be coming to the temple to pray for blessings tomorrow. Everyone be careful and don't get caught," one of the masked men shouted.

"yes!"

Having obtained the information she wanted, Su Ruojin quietly withdrew.

Everything will have to wait until tomorrow.
