At night, Yan Bao and his friends stayed in an inn.

Before going to bed, Yan Bao went to the toilet and happened to see another group of people staying in the hotel. They didn't look like ordinary businessmen.

Yan Bao exchanged a glance with one of them. The look in the other person's eyes made Yan Bao immediately realize that these people had come with ill intentions and were targeting him.

Yan Bao went back calmly, woke up Ziyun, and notified Master Li who lived next door, asking him not to sleep too deeply at night.

Sure enough, in the dead of night, someone pried open their door, and several people nimbly moved towards where they slept, ready to stab them with sharp knives.

There was no one on the bed. It was just two pillows disguised by Yan Bao. They looked like people, but they were not.

The next second, Yan Bao lit a torch and looked at the four startled assassins. Their faces changed and they were about to attack Yan Bao and the others.

Swords and knives clattered to the ground.

Yan Bao looked at the assassins who fell powerlessly and laughed.

Seeing that they were all drugged, Ziyun opened the window to let in some fresh air. Thanks to the antidote, they were fine after taking it. However, these assassins who had no antidote could only be slaughtered and forced to confess.

Ziyun asked, "Who sent you here?"

The assassins said stubbornly: "You can kill us or cut us up, but we won't betray our master."

Yan Bao directly slit the throats of the other three, leaving only one alive.

Master Li dug a pit and buried the three bodies to avoid scaring others.

In order to avoid dirtying the floor of the inn, the assassin was taken to the back mountain and buried after being killed, which was not a big deal.

Seeing that all his companions were dead, and then looking at the young but ruthless Yan Bao, the assassin swallowed his saliva: "It's...it's Prince Huai. He sent us here. He said that you beat him up last time, and he wants to teach you a lesson."

Ziyun suddenly realized: "Oh, it's him!"

Yan Bao had already figured out that it was indeed the fake one.

Yan Bao asked Zi Yun to continue asking: "The fake one won't tell me, let me ask you, where did you hide the real Prince Huai?"

The assassin's expression changed, his eyes flickering. "What's the real Huai Prince? What's the fake Huai Prince? I don't know anything."

Yan Bao laughed in anger: [You're still trying to argue at this time, do you really think I know nothing? ]

Ziyun followed Yanbao's instructions.

Knowing that he could not get any information about Ah Huai from this person, Yan Bao did not want to take an assassin with him and kill him directly. He already knew whether he knew the real Ah Huai or not.

Can't keep it.

Master Li buried the people and sighed, "Why am I doing this? I'll forget about it tonight, but don't ask me to bury bodies again."

Yan Bao acted cute and coquettish: [Master is the best, I love you the most, Master, you have worked so hard, I will treat you to a delicious meal some other day.]

Master Li: “…”

What should I do? I am old and I will only respond to soft tactics and not harsh ones.

After dealing with the four bodies, we left behind some useful items from their bodies, which might come in handy in the future.

They returned to the inn and fell asleep as if nothing had happened. After breakfast the next day, Yan Bao and the others disguised themselves. Yan Bao and Zi Yun both wore ordinary boy's clothes.

Master Li also changed into coarse linen clothes in a low-key manner and took his two grandsons to Dongzhou to make a living.

With such disguise, no one knows who they are.

The fake Ah Huai, who was under house arrest, did not receive any news from the people he sent out for ten days or half a month. After inquiring, he found out that Princess Taining had already arrived in Jingzhou and was not dead or alive.

There was no news from his men, and the fake Ah Huai knew everything. His men were probably killed by that little mute.

The fake Ah Huai was very angry, thinking that the little mute had come back and he didn't know how to make trouble.

On second thought, people in their line of work are very tight-lipped and will definitely not reveal who sent the assassination.

That little mute probably doesn't know that she was the one who sent someone to assassinate her.

Thinking of this, the fake Ah Huai was no longer afraid of his identity being exposed.

It takes five days to travel from Dongzhou to the capital. Yan Bao did not complain about the tiredness or the hardship, but he almost fell apart when he arrived in Dongzhou.

She used to pretend to be a poor person, but now she doesn't need to pretend at all. She looks like a poor kid with a dusty face, looking like a dirty bag.

The same goes for Ziyun, who has become much whiter, she is dirty!

Master Li brought them into the city, thinking that they needed to gather information and find someone.

The target is King Dongshan, and the only way is to sneak into King Dongshan's palace.

Master Li sold Yan Bao and Zi Yun to a human trafficker for five taels of silver. He knew that the human trafficker had a good relationship with the manager of the palace, so he could only let them serve in the palace through her.

Yan Bao and Zi Yun are both little girls. It is not appropriate for them to pretend to be little boys at this time. They need to take a bath to prove their identities. Won’t they be discovered as soon as they take off their clothes?

When he came, Yan Bao made some inquiries and found out that King Dongshan had many children and was a fertile man. He had more than a dozen sons and seven or eight daughters, and these were the ones he could support. It was unknown how many more he had who were not.

This time, the maids were bought because the most favored son of King Dongshan had abused many maids and there was no one to serve in the yard, so he asked the traffickers to send in a group of well-behaved and obedient girls.

I want something pretty, not ugly ones.

Yan Bao, the little mute, is pretty, although he can't speak. After washing, he is so cute and adorable. The steward thinks he looks good, and the little ancestor in the mansion likes beautiful things, so it doesn't matter if he can't speak.

Just like that, Yan Bao and Zi Yun were both picked up by the manager.

Master Li only earned five taels of silver from selling them, but the human trafficker sold them for fifty taels.

What a profiteer!

They followed the steward and entered the Dongshan Palace smoothly. The steward was the person responsible for training them. He was fierce and used coaxing, deception and PUA to let them know that once they entered the palace, they would be its people in life and ghosts in death.
