Chapter 1246 Chu Qi Risks It All
"It's possible, but it's also possible that we'll just wait in vain."
Jiang Wan frowned, "Song Jiuyuan, you go back first, I'll stay here.
If someone comes, I will follow them. If no one comes, I will go with you to the trading place before you leave."
This is the safest way.
Song Jiuyuan hesitated for a moment and agreed to Jiang Wan, "Okay, you should be more careful.
I'll leave Song Si to you. If anyone comes, ask him to come back and let us know. Remember to leave a mark for us."
"Um."
After Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan had reached an agreement, Song Jiuyuan left behind a few secret guards and returned to the palace alone.
Fortunately, Jiang Wan had already prepared the silver, so Song Jiuyuan only needed to tell someone to take the things with him.
Jiang Wan yawned repeatedly while waiting in this farm. She got some food from the space and ate while waiting.
The carrier pigeon had been standing on the roof and had not left. Jiang Wan had a hunch that someone else would definitely come.
Sure enough, after dawn, around noon, Jiang Wan vaguely saw a man dressed as an old man coming over.
The man did not enter the farm first, but walked around the farm several times to make sure there was nothing unusual before opening the door and going in.
Jiang Wan stared at the other person, and then saw the old man walk into the yard calmly and waved gently.
The carrier pigeon landed in his hand. He quickly read the note, then released the pigeon and left the farm.
"Go tell the prince, I'll follow him."
Jiang Wan landed in front of Song Si. Song Si nodded slightly and waited until the old man left the farm before leaving.
Jiang Wan did not rush to chase him, but waited for a few seconds, and sure enough, the old man returned.
This is to see if there is anyone waiting.
This group of people are indeed smart, no wonder Fuso always reminds her to be careful.
This time when the old man left, Jiang Wan followed him carefully. In order to avoid being discovered, Jiang Wan kept a distance.
Fortunately, there was space, so even if she almost got lost for a while, Jiang Wan could easily find the other person.
Since the other party came to read the letter early in the morning, I guess his hiding place is not far away.
Sure enough, Jiang Wan followed the other party for a distance. She didn't expect that the other party was so bold that he actually used the hideout of a previous bandit.
She remembered that Sheng Yi had said before that this bandit nest had just been wiped out not long ago.
They are really skilled and daring.
After the old man entered the village, he kept looking back every few steps, fearing that he might be followed.
Since Jiang Wan had already found the place, she was naturally not in a hurry, but hid in the dark.
She had made a mark when she followed over just now, but unfortunately there was not much time left before the transaction, and she didn't know whether Song Jiuyuan and the others would be able to get here in time.
She yawned lazily and waited in the dark for a while. As the transaction time was approaching, Jiang Wan still hadn't seen Song Jiuyuan.
She simply told the remaining secret guards to wait outside while she sneaked in.
The first person to look for is Song Jiuchi.
But she didn't expect this group of people to be so cunning. She went around in circles but couldn't find anyone.
Could it be that these people have detained Song Jiuchi somewhere else?
Jiang Wan made up her mind and kidnapped a young cook from the kitchen. She covered her mouth and dragged her to a dark place.
"Be quiet, or I'll kill you!"
Jiang Wan held a dagger across the young cook's neck. The young cook was so frightened that her face turned pale and she nodded hurriedly.
"Where are the people you captured being held?"
Jiang Wan let go of the little cook's mouth, and the little cook shook her head in horror.
"I...I don't know."
"How dare you lie?"
Jiang Wan applied a little force on the hand that was holding the dagger, and blood soon appeared on the cook's neck.
"Lady, I really don't know that the hall master...locked the person up somewhere else."
The young cook trembled slightly, and Jiang Wan could faintly smell a strange odor.
The little cook was actually scared to death!
Jiang Wan: ...
It seems that she really doesn't know.
Compared to Ren Fei, this Master Ren is much more cunning.
There are only about 20 to 30 people in the entire village, so I think there are indeed some people hiding somewhere else.
She was so frustrated that she knocked the cook unconscious and threw her into an empty room.
Then he planned to look for the old man, but he couldn't find him.
I think he was in disguise just now, and it is even possible that he has already gone to tip off someone.
Jiang Wan was so angry that she beat her feet and stamped her chest. She was really careless. She angrily found the warehouse of this cottage and planned to take it for free.
However, this group of people did not seem to be very wealthy. There were not many gold, silver and treasures inside. It was estimated that they had recently looted them.
Jiang Wan took them away without hesitation, but she was afraid of alerting the enemy, so she left the boxes outside untouched.
The things that are often used in the kitchen were not touched.
She quickly left the stronghold and said to the secret guards, "You stay here, I'm going to find the prince!"
Master Ren and Song Jiuchi are not here, so there is no need to spend too much time.
So Jiang Wan needs to focus more on the transaction location.
"Yes, princess."
The secret guards had no idea what a big thing Jiang Wan had done and thought that Jiang Wan had gone inside to investigate the route.
Jiang Wan did tell them the general route inside, and then they met Sheng Yi.
"Sister-in-law."
Sheng Yi stepped forward and said, "Brother asked me to come and pick you up. What's the situation here?"
"The mastermind and Jiuchi are not here. You take some people and surround this place. I will go and meet up with the prince now."
After Jiang Wan gave Sheng Yi instructions, she left quickly. She did not forget that her main mission was to save Song Jiuchi.
As for this stronghold, it must also be eradicated.
Jiang Wan used her special powers to quickly go to the transaction location. Hall Master Ren was very smart and chose a location still in the suburbs.
It was a valley, easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Master Ren was probably determined to make sure they never came back.
Jiang Wan met up with Song Jiuyuan before he entered the valley. Chu Qi and Song Qing were also there.
"Wanwan, how is it over there?"
In fact, when Song Jiuyuan saw Jiang Wan coming back alone, he had a premonition that things might not go smoothly.
"Master Ren and Song Jiuchi are not there. It's just a temporary hideout."
Jiang Wan was a little depressed. "I've handed that over to Sheng Yi. Jiuchi should be here. It doesn't matter if we lose some money. The most important thing is his safety."
"Wanwan is right."
Song Qing agreed deeply. He also didn't want anything to happen to his son, and Chu Qi felt the same way.
"Then Wanwan, you should continue to hide in the dark."
Song Jiuyuan knew that Jiang Wan had space, so it would be easier for him to operate. He might be able to find a way to take Song Jiuchi away when he saw him.
"I'm afraid that's not possible. Hall Master Ren specifically asked us to go together."
Jiang Wan frowned slightly, thinking that Master Ren must hate them both to the core, so he made such a request.
"Sister-in-law, I remember you have good disguise skills. I can disguise myself as you."
Chu Qi has risked everything to save her man.
"No, I am their target, and they might shoot me from behind."
Jiang Wan was still worried and couldn't find a better solution for a while.
"But sister-in-law, this is the best way."
Chu Qi sniffed slightly, "As long as I can save Jiuchi, I'm not afraid of anything."
