Chapter 2155 Changes
Wu Yingqiu looked up and his expression suddenly became serious.
When the officials nearby saw the man coming out, they hurried forward to salute and said respectfully, "General Xu."
That was none other than Xu Shifeng!
Before entering the great altar, Wu Yingqiu specially patrolled the surroundings but could not find him, so he was confident that Xu Shifeng must have taken his men to guard the several "bait" locations he had arranged, ready to capture their men at any time.
But I didn't expect that he would appear here!
When they saw him, not only Wu Yingqiu was stunned, but Wan Pengkun beside him was also shocked.
He murmured, "He, he is here—"
At this time, Xu Shifeng also looked up and saw them. He walked over with a smile on his face and bowed to Wu Yingqiu, "Duke."
"Master Xu..."
Seeing Wu Yingqiu's complicated expression, Xu Shifeng smiled and said, "Why does the Duke see this expression on my face? Is there something wrong with me today?"
“…”
Wu Yingqiu paused for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "Oh, I didn't see Lord Xu coming with the Holy Palace just now. I'm a little surprised."
"strangeness?"
"I heard from the Emperor that you were busy. I wonder what you were busy with."
"Oh, this one."
Xu Shifeng smiled and said, "The Emperor has repeatedly reminded us that this ceremony will be different from previous ones. We cannot allow for any more accidents like the last time at the Da Ci'en Temple. Therefore, I have come here specifically to make preparations in advance."
"Preparation? What preparation?"
Xu Shifeng glanced at him and said with a slightly amused expression: "Duke, you are joking. What else can we prepare?"
“…”
"It's just that I'm afraid those scoundrels will do something illegal."
"……oh."
"So, send soldiers ahead to guard that side and that side. You know, that side leads directly to the altar."
"Um."
"This way, the emperor will be relieved, and so will this humble official."
"The Emperor really did not make the mistake of assigning orders to the wrong person. With General Xu here, today's ceremony will surely go smoothly."
"According to the Duke's good words."
As they talked, they both laughed.
When Wu Yingqiu smiled, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
At this time, Xu Shifeng looked back and said, "Oh, the time is almost up. Duke, let's hurry to the main hall and don't miss the auspicious time."
As he said this, he was about to come over and pull Wu Yingqiu over.
At this time, Wu Yingqiu also began to panic.
If you enter the hall, it will be difficult to get out.
If the external deployment does not change accordingly, it is obvious that it will be full of loopholes!
However, he couldn't be too casual in front of Xu Shifeng. After all, he had no idea what the other party's situation was. If he forced to leave, it would only make everything worse.
He couldn't act rashly until he was absolutely sure.
Thinking of this, he immediately turned around and winked at Wan Pengkun behind him.
Wan Pengkun understood and immediately said, "Then, uncle and Lord Xu go in first. I need to go over there for a while because I have to go to the bathroom urgently."
Xu Shifeng said: "Is that so? Okay."
Wu Yingqiu took the opportunity to turn around and said to Wan Pengkun, "Then go quickly and come back quickly. Also, don't go through the corner gate over there, so you don't have to take a detour. Go behind the Zhai Palace. Do you understand?"
Wan Pengkun immediately said: "Yes!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
