In the palace, the emperor soon learned of the situation.
After listening to Eunuch Fu's report, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Hahaha... Great! I didn't expect she could handle this thorny issue. She even managed to get the government to fully cooperate with her and send the Dragon Shadow Guards to do her bidding, including Long Yi, Long Er, Long San, and others."
"They have worked with Jiang Mengli before, so they should have a better understanding of each other. Remember not to alert the enemy. Anyone who disrupts the plan by not following her instructions will be torn into pieces by me!"
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Fu immediately bowed and agreed, "So many people who fought against her ended up in terrible situations. She must be smart. It's better not to clash with her in the future."
Hearing this, the emperor narrowed his eyes and nodded in agreement. "Well, it's better to resolve a feud than to create one. I now fully understand this. Although she was mainly doing this for Wen Mohan, she also solved a big problem for me. Pass on the instructions you just mentioned."
After Eunuch Fu agreed, he left the room and gave his instructions with his eyes narrowed.
When Long Yi and others learned that they would be under Jiang Mengli's orders, they were very happy.
There is no way to contact or get in touch with each other on weekdays, but now we can meet openly.
In the evening, the sky gradually darkened.
The man in black robe was a little drowsy, trying to open and close his eyes over and over again, just like a child dozing off in class.
Jiang Mengli brought Long Yi and others in from the back door, and then asked them to change into the clothes of the servants.
Then the servants followed Old King Bai out through the back door.
Long Yi saw the dozing man and asked quietly, "He shouldn't have noticed what just happened, right?"
I didn't even enter the house to change my face, I just changed it at the back.
Jiang Meng said firmly: "Don't worry, there are some sleeping pills in the tea. He is dazed and half asleep now."
"Alright, everyone, take your positions. They'll be here as soon as it gets dark. Help move the things in the first room. Leave the other rooms alone."
There is less actual food in other rooms, and if you move right away, you will be easily discovered.
Now use the food in the first room to make the other party reveal the location of the food hiding.
After hearing this, everyone dispersed immediately.
Shortly after it got dark, there was a noise at the back door.
The man in black robes appeared at the back door with some people. Five donkey carts were parked outside. "There are too many carts and it's too conspicuous."
Jiang Mengli heard this and agreed: "You are very thoughtful. Let your people come in."
The small number of vehicles was just what she wanted. If there were too many vehicles, she would have to pull them in slowly so as not to expose the fake grain more quickly.
Several strong men walked into the yard.
Long Yi enthusiastically opened the first house and helped put the food on their shoulders.
Jiang Mengli stood aside with the man in black robe and watched.
She smiled and asked, "I'm a little curious. What do you want so much food for? If you say you're going to sell it, I don't believe it."
The man in black robe didn't get angry, but just smiled calmly, "Curiosity kills the cat. Some things are better left unknown, but there is no doubt that these grains are meant to be eaten."
hehe……
"You're quite humorous." Jiang Mengli covered her mouth and smiled sweetly, "If you don't eat the food, are you throwing it away? It's okay if you don't tell me, I'm just asking casually."
At this moment, someone called her from behind, "Miss, someone from the court is here to ask you to come over."
Hearing this, Jiang Mengli looked at the black robe and sighed, "Look, trouble is coming. I haven't sent the food over yet, and they are anxious. I will come back later."
After saying this, he hurriedly left the house, his figure blending into the night.
This reason did not arouse any suspicion in Heipao. Not sending food would definitely make the court angry. After all, the court needed food so much now.
"Master, the five donkey carts are full." A big man came over with sweat on his forehead to report.
Only one-fifth of the goods were carried out of the first room, and a donkey cart could only carry a limited amount.
The man in black robe retracted his gaze, walked to the front of the room and took a look, "Send it back first and come back later. Don't go to the main street, go to the small path from the back door."
Then he left four people here to watch while he led the others out through the back door.
For the sake of secrecy, they drove away in the dark in their donkey cart without lanterns or torches.
In the yard, four big men were pacing back and forth under the eaves, mainly to ensure that nothing went wrong with the food.
Long Yi enthusiastically brought some tea. "You all must be thirsty from carrying the food, right? Come have a cup of tea to quench your thirst. It's just coarse tea, don't be disgusted."
As he spoke, he poured a bowl and handed it to the nearest person.
They were also very vigilant. They looked at the tea bowls offered to them but did not reach out to take them. Instead, they simply refused with a blank expression, "We cannot be thirsty."
Hearing this, Long Yi did not force it, but smiled and took back his hand and said with a smile: "Haha...you guys are really thirsty. I've been tired for a while but I'm very thirsty."
He tilted his head back and gulped down the tea in one breath, finishing every sip.
Then he asked Long Er and the others if they were thirsty, and they each ordered a bowl.
Seeing this, the four big men swallowed their saliva.
They were actually thirsty, but they didn't drink to prevent it from being a scam.
Now seeing these people drinking and nothing happening, I feel like I'm thinking too much.
Long Yi turned around and glanced at them. "The tea and clean bowls are here. Just pour it yourself when you want to drink. You're welcome."
After he said that, he turned around and went to do his own thing without standing still.
The four big men looked at each other, then stepped forward and each poured a bowl and drank it down.
When Long Yi saw this, a smile appeared on his face.
I silently counted the numbers in my mind: one... two... three... four...
