Feng Xiyun stared blankly at the carriage as it went further and further into the city. He saw that if he didn't catch up, the ordinary carriage would be drowned in the crowd of people and horses and would no longer be seen.
"Young Prince, don't worry. The secret guards have already caught up. Let's catch up slowly. If we catch up now, we might alert the enemy and expose them. It would be bad for Tong Cha."
There was no expression on Ye Xuwen's face, but he explained and comforted Feng Xiyun.
"He seemed to make a few gestures before he left. Did you see them? What did they mean?"
Feng Ming was calmer than Feng Xiyun. She knew that Ye Xuwen must have made some arrangements, and she was more curious about the meaning of those gestures.
"He made three gestures. The first meant 'rest assured,' the second meant 'sneak in,' and the third meant 'follow up.' He must have meant that he had gained the man's trust and was now going to infiltrate him, so he asked us to send someone to follow."
"Oh~"
Fengming and Fengxi agreed, and suddenly understood.
"That's amazing! I want to learn this, too. I've never seen my uncle use it before."
Feng Xiyun felt a sense of admiration.
"These items are used by combat teams in specific situations. The Third Prince is a general in the center, coordinating the overall situation, so he doesn't need to use them. It's understandable that the young prince doesn't understand them. Let's go, we can catch up now."
Ye Xuwen asked his men to follow him and chase the carriage that took away the cross-dressing boss Tong Cha and the young guard.
"Um~ Sister, where are we going?"
"Yeah, you finally woke up. You missed a lot."
"Oh, I'm just so sleepy. Anyway, you'll tell me later."
Feng Yuyun stretched lazily and finally woke up.
"You, I told you to stay and sleep, but you insisted on coming along, and now you sleep again."
"Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Aren't we going to see the person we asked Madam Wu to meet? Why do we have to go back to the city now?"
Feng Yuyun lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that it had arrived at the Qingzhou city gate and was waiting for inspection by the gate guards.
"We've already met him. He's been taken back to the city. We have to catch up with him quickly."
Feng Ming looked outside the carriage, paying attention to the progress of the inspection, and explained it to Feng Yuyun casually.
"Wow, a real-life version of the decisive chase!"
The soul of the second girl in Feng Yuyun who had just woken up also woke up. No one knew what was going on in her mind, but there was a strange smile on her face.
Fengming turned around and looked at her like this, sighing helplessly.
"Wait, there's something wrong with your carriage!"
At this moment, the guard at the city gate shouted loudly.
Fengming opened the curtain to see, only to find that the carriage that was stopped and said to be problematic was that of Su Wei and Tunan in front of them.
Su Wei and Tu Nan had already stuck their heads out, and Feng Xiyun, who was riding a horse beside the carriage, had also dismounted and was arguing with the guards.
"What's wrong with us? You haven't even checked, and you're just saying we have a problem?"
Seeing that the carriage that Tong Cha was riding in turned a corner and disappeared at the end of the long street in the city, Feng Xiyun became a little anxious. At this time, he showed his usual arrogant attitude when he was in the capital, which scared the guard.
When he spoke again, the guards' momentum was not as strong as before. It was obvious that they were frightened by Feng Xiyun, but they still did not change their words.
"We just received a report that there's a wanted criminal named Meng Feiyu from First Avenue in your car."
Feng Xi allowed???
"Who reported us? Who is Meng Feiyu?"
When the guard heard Feng Xiyun's silly question, his courage, which had been frightened away just now, came back a little.
But looking at Feng Xiyun's expression, it didn't seem fake, and his expression became a little dull.
“You really don’t know who Meng Feiyu is?”
"Ah, I don't know. Who is he?"
Feng Xiyun and the guard had the same expression, both thought the other had a problem with his brain.
"Are you from Daqing? Even Meng Feiyu doesn't know you. He's a thief who suddenly appeared out of nowhere last month. He specializes in stealing valuables. In just half a month, he stole the white jade Guanyin heirloom from Grand Tutor Li's family, the gilded sword forged by the Third Prince with a huge sum of money, and the token of love between General Zhenbei and his wife. Wow, he's really amazing."
An old man passing by with a bamboo basket on his back couldn't bear to see this and gave Feng Xiyun some literacy lessons.
And Feng Ming, who heard the introduction——???
What did you hear?
The white jade Guanyin that the stingy old Master Li used to hold while sleeping every day was stolen?
Her third uncle thought it was too fancy and kept it in the warehouse, but the sword, which was indeed inlaid with the most precious gems and jades in the world, was also stolen?
Well, she could understand both of these things. After all, they were indeed rare and valuable treasures in the world.
But why did he steal the last one, the token of love between General Zhenbei and his wife?
That thing was stolen. Tsk, Old Man Lin must be kneeling on the washboard right now.
Fengming suddenly felt a little gloating, because it was him who always stopped him from going to play with Qingqing when he was a child.
That’s right, General Zhenbei is Lin Qing’s father.
As for the stolen token of love, Fengming thought about the small piece of cloth that he had seen once before - it was the first time in his two lifetimes that he had seen a token of love using a bib from his childhood!
But if you think about it carefully, it is understandable that Meng Feiyu wants to steal the token of love between General Zhenbei and his wife. After all, in the eyes of all those who don't know the truth, they are powerful, mysterious and valuable super treasures, including Feng Ming who was very silly and naive at the time.
Legend has it that General Zhenbei had been pursuing his wife desperately but could not win her heart for a long time. After much thought and contemplation, he took risks and searched for treasures everywhere, and finally found the greatest treasure in the world and gave it to his wife.
The general's wife fell in love with him at first sight and was overjoyed. She expressed her love to the general and they had a happy marriage.
After all, General Zhenbei's family is a military family with rich heritage; and the general's wife is the only heir to a mysterious hermit family. Naturally, everyone thinks that a treasure that can make the general's wife fall in love at first sight must be extraordinary.
Little did he know that after the general took out the token of love, he was chased around the mountain by his wife for a whole day.
Until now Fengming still didn't understand why the general's wife fell in love with Old Man Lin in the first place. Was she actually being threatened?
"Okay, you've looked and checked, and there's definitely no Meng Feiyu in our carriage. Can we go now?"
"Well, indeed not, let him go!"
The guard waved to the other guards to let them pass, and Feng Xiyun noticed that there seemed to be a flash of cold light from an arrow.
Feng Ming, whose mind was racing, was brought back to his senses by the voice of the guard. He looked outside the carriage and found that Feng Xiyun had already said goodbye to the guard arm in arm.
"Let's talk some other time, brother."
"Okay, thanks, brother. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know where the carriage went. You actually falsely accused us, what a lie!"
The guard patted Feng Xiyun's shoulder with pity.
