Chu Chen didn't know that he had been spotted by someone and insisted on going in to see Wang Jiyang.

"I have something important to discuss with your brother. Please let us in, young lady."

The more Wang Yueniang looked at it, the more satisfied she felt. She completely forgot her previous doubts and nodded. But when she saw Lu Yanluo beside her, she asked hesitantly, "Who is this?"

Chu Chen was about to speak, but Lu Yanluo interrupted him and replied, "I'm his sister."

Sister. Upon hearing it was her sister, Wang Yue Niang felt relieved. She glanced at Chu Chen shyly, then turned around and led people into the government office.

Chu Chen looked at Lu Yanluo in confusion: "Sister-in-law..."

"Shh, remember, in front of this girl, I am your sister for the time being. Listen to me, and you will understand it soon." Lu Yanluo looked at Chu Chen and smiled meaningfully.

I have to say that the men of the Chu family, whether good or bad, all have handsome looks.

Chu Chen, who had accidentally accomplished the mission, did not understand the meaning of Lu Yanluo's mysterious smile until he entered the mansion.

Wang Yue Niang seemed to have grown up by his side, following him closely and always finding something to talk about with him, no matter what.

Even a fool could see what Wang Yue Niang was thinking. Chu Chen felt a chill in his heart and secretly turned around to look at Lu Yanluo, his eyes full of help.

Lu Yanluo spread her hands, indicating that she could do nothing to help. In order to see Wang Jiyang, she could only let Chu Chen sacrifice his looks.

The journey into the mansion was probably the most painful moment in Chu Chen's life. Wang Yue Niang was almost sticking to him, making him miserable.

"Wang Yue Niang! What are you doing? Haven't you learned that men and women should not touch each other?" Several people went to the lobby of the government office. Unexpectedly, halfway through, they ran into Wang Ji Yang, who had received the news and was about to leave the house.

Lu Yanluo looked over when she heard that. The man opposite was not tall, and appeared to be in his thirties. He was wearing a crimson official uniform that was loose on his body and looked out of place.

This person is Wang Jiyang, the prefect of Tongzhou.

While Lu Yanluo was looking at Wang Jiyang, Wang Jiyang was also looking at Lu Yanluo and Chu Chen.

Although Lu Yanluo and Chu Chen were dressed in ordinary clothes and looked tired, their temperament in every gesture was invaluable. In just a moment, Wang Jiyang guessed who the visitor was.

Wang Yueniang was so focused on Chu Chen that she didn't notice the undercurrent between them. She glared at Wang Jiyang angrily and said, "What are you yelling about! How am I getting in your way?"

Wang Jiyang ignored Wang Yueniang's shouting and said without hesitation: "Go back to your room and reflect on your mistakes! You are not allowed to go out without my permission!"

"Wang Jiyang!" Wang Yue Niang refused, but Wang Jiyang was obviously determined to punish her, and he had someone drag Wang Yue Niang away forcefully.

For a moment, only Wang Jiyang, Lu Yanluo and Chu Chen were left in the yard.

After a moment, Lu Yanluo sneered and said, "Master Wang, why are you doing this? Do you think I will hurt Miss Wang? There is no need to do that. You should know the purpose of my visit."

"Princess Ye, His Royal Highness Prince Su." Wang Jiyang's expression did not change at all because of Lu Yanluo's words. Instead, he calmly called out the identities of the two.

Appearing in Tongzhou at this time, he looked noble just by standing here. Apart from Lu Yanluo and Chu Chen who were stopped outside the city, he couldn't think of anyone else.

"You two are really good at this. The gates of Tongzhou were tightly closed, but you were able to get in. I admire you. Let me guess, did you sneak in from the moat?"

Lu Yanluo secretly looked at Wang Jiyang and had to admit that Wang Jiyang was very smart.

Before Lu Yanluo could speak, Chu Chen stood in front of her, looked at Wang Jiyang and said in a deep voice: "Stop talking nonsense. This time, my king and my sister-in-law came here for food and grass. Tatuo has deployed troops at Tianque Pass. The soldiers at Tianque Pass are in urgent need of food and grass. Xie Tianzhang of Qingzhou has already transported part of the food and grass. For the rest, I can only ask you for it."

Wang Jiyang remained calm upon hearing this, and said, "Your Highness, it's not that I don't want to give you food, but that I can't. King Ye has indeed made a great contribution by leading his troops to guard Tianque Pass."

"But if he has the intention of rebellion, then he will be aiding and abetting the tyrant if he has this batch of grain, so I cannot give him this grain!"

Wang Jiyang spoke righteously, as if he had really put a lot of thought into this matter and was in a dilemma.

Unexpectedly, Chu Xuan sneered and directly lifted the fig leaf that Wang Jiyang had covered himself with.

"The Night King rebelled? What nonsense are you talking about here! Do you believe that I will chop you off for slandering the prince? Don't you just want to avoid food? Who are you trying to persuade with such pretentious words?"

Wang Jiyang's originally solemn expression suddenly changed, and his previous respectfulness and humility disappeared.

"Your Highness, why did you make it so clear that I can't even try to whitewash the situation? Are you stupid?" Wang Jiyang smiled maliciously: "Your Highness Prince Su, hasn't anyone told you that smart people die quickly?"

Lu Yanluo had a bad feeling, so she quickly stepped forward, pulled Chu Chen over, and stepped back.

On the ground where Chu Chen had just stood, there lay an arrow flashing with a cold blue light.

Chu Chen felt a surge of fear. If Lu Yanluo hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been beheaded by now.

"Wang Jiyang, you are so brave! How dare you kill Prince Su in public in the government office!" Lu Yanluo looked at Wang Jiyang coldly.

Wang Jiyang sneered nonchalantly and spread his hands: "So what if you are Prince Su? Do you think I am really afraid of you, a prince and a princess? It's ridiculous. You two came here alone. Even if you die here today, no one will know that I killed you."

"I will send someone to throw your bodies into the Tatuo camp. Then everyone will think that you two died at the hands of the Tatuo enemy and it has nothing to do with me."

"You are so despicable!" Chu Chen said angrily.

Wang Jiyang laughed as if he had heard something interesting. "Why do you think I dared to refuse the Night King's request for food? Why did I dare to come to see you? Because I have the confidence. The soldiers in my hands are my confidence!"

As they were talking for a while, Lu Yanluo and Chu Chen were surrounded by a group of men in black.

Lu Yanluo suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Wang Jiyang was unwilling to hand over grain. It was likely that all the grain in Tongzhou had been used to feed his private soldiers. Where would he get the food to supply Tianque Pass?

It seems that Wang Jiyang had already made plans. Even the secret letter that Xie Tianzhang received was written by Wang Jiyang.

Lu Yanluo and Chu Chen looked at the men in black around them with vigilance, secretly thinking about how to escape. They had to find a way to leave this place.

Wang Jiyang sneered and said, "Don't try to escape. There are already many people here. You can't escape from here even if you have wings!"
