Chapter 97 The Princess Loves You



Shangshu Mansion.

Bai Runyi couldn't sleep. He sat on the steps in front of the bedroom and looked at the sky, feeling infinitely melancholy. It seemed that there was no moon tonight.

She always felt uneasy, lying in bed with a stuffy chest and shortness of breath. His father had been very busy these days because of Murong Zhi's dethronement.

"Oh." Bai Runyi supported his chin and sighed.

Why couldn't she meet a good man? Could it be that she had been to brothels too often in the past?

But she didn't do anything out of the ordinary!

Wen Xingzhi is such a stingy guy that he wants to kill people if you ask him for two silver notes. He's like a lunatic.

And Shen Qing actually refused her permission to visit him when he was sick!

Bai Runyi buried his head in his arms and couldn't help sobbing.

She knew that Shen Qing was not sick at all, she just deliberately didn't see her! She was angry because of Wen Xingzhi, she would never play with her again!

Wen Xingzhi sat on the roof, listening to Bai Runyi's soft sobs, and felt very uncomfortable.

He shouldn't have used her. At least he and Shen Qing should have resolved their grievances openly.

He underestimated Shen Qing's position in Bai Runyi's heart and overestimated his own means.

sorry.

"Miss, why are you sitting outside? The ground is cold. You will catch a cold tomorrow." Chuntao woke up when she heard the noise, but saw that Bai Run was not in bed. She opened the door and saw her sitting on the steps.

"Chun Tao, Chen Qing wants to break up with me, what should I do?"

Chun Tao hugged Bai Runyi, patting her back anxiously and trying to comfort her. "How could that be? How could the princess break up with you? Didn't her maid tell her today that the princess was just sick?"

"Why didn't you let me go see her when she was sick?"

"Oh, my dear lady, don't cry." Whoever is the master, will feel distressed. "The princess is afraid that the disease will be passed on to you! Think about it, the general just fell ill, and the princess is sick too. This means that this disease is very contagious! The princess doesn't want you to go because she cares about you."

Bai Runyi wiped his tears and looked at Chuntao, "Really?"

"Of course!" Chun Tao breathed a sigh of relief, finally persuading him. "The princess treats you so well, how could she possibly break off her friendship with you?"

That makes sense. Qingqing will definitely not break up with her easily!

"Shall we go back to bed then?"

Bai Runyi nodded, helped Chuntao stand up, and went back to the room to rest.

Wen Xingzhi stayed on her roof all night and left only when it was dawn.

Shen Jianshan led a huge army all the way north. When they just left the jurisdiction of the capital, they were still in a hurry. The sound of horse hooves and footsteps was deafening, raising a cloud of dust.

However, the journey slowed down after that. Shen Jianshan ordered his deputy general to lead the team forward, but he himself was not in a hurry to go to the front line.

Under the guise of carrying out a secret mission for the emperor, he would stop briefly in each city he passed through. Shen Jianshan personally led his trusted confidants deep into the city, carefully observing the local people's sentiments, military deployments, and food reserves.

He secretly discussed with his trusted subordinates and carefully collected intelligence. At the same time, he secretly contacted some local forces, quietly won over the people's hearts, and made thorough preparations for the possible action of launching an army against the capital at any time.

Every night, Shen Jianshan pondered the map for a long time in his tent, planning every move in the future.

The preparations this time are related to the final success or failure, so we must be extremely cautious.

I don't know how Shen Qing is preparing...

The sound of the wind.

Shen Qing and his three companions overcame many obstacles along the way and took great effort before finally reaching the inner circle of the Fengsheng organization.

The inner area was completely different from the darkness and gloom outside, as it was brightly lit.

Countless bright lights hang high, illuminating every corner as bright as day, and no movement in the dark can escape.

There was a killer standing guard almost every three steps, and the entire inner area was surrounded so tightly that not even a mosquito could fly through.

"It's not easy to get in." Jiang Zhuo's expression was serious and his tone was a little heavy.

With their strength, there would be no problem getting in, but it would be a tough battle. By the end, all their physical strength would be exhausted, and their chances of winning against other killers would not be very high.

"We should go around to the back. We can't confront them head-on." Chen Qing looked at Hua Qiufeng, "Let's go to the Tibetan Medicine Pavilion first."

Hua Qiufeng nodded, and the few of them left quietly.

I walked around for about a quarter of an hour but still couldn't find the Tibetan medicine pavilion.

"Brother, do you know where it is?" Changfeng put his hand on Hua Qiufeng's shoulder, "You can't look for it now, right?"

"Of course I know. It's just up ahead, turn left." Hua Qiufeng frowned and replied, "I don't come to the Tibetan Medicine Pavilion often. Most of the time I'm out doing missions."

Hua Qiufeng led the way in front, and Jiang Zhuo quietly pulled Shen Qing down.

"There's something a little off about Hua Qiufeng," Jiang Zhuo whispered. "Logically, an assassin of his caliber should be very expensive, the kind that could keep him busy for half a year on a single assignment. So why is he constantly taking on external assignments?"

"Be careful. If there's any problem, just kill them."

Shen Qing looked at Hua Qiufeng's back thoughtfully.

He didn't lie. The Tibetan Medicine Pavilion was really just to the left. Hua Qiufeng was obviously relieved.

"There are five mid-level assassins lying in ambush outside the Tibetan Medicine Pavilion, and there are traps set up by Qianji Villa inside. You must be careful."

"The four of us are too big a target. I'll go in by myself. You guys wait here." Shen Qing said, "If you are discovered, leave immediately and don't worry about me."

"I'll go with you."

How could Jiang Zhuo let Chen Qing take risks alone?

"I'm going too." Hua Qiufeng also said, "I know what the antidote looks like."

"Then, then I'll go too?" Although Changfeng couldn't give a reason to go out, he was already there.

"Hua Qiufeng, come with me. Jiang Zhuo, go find Chun Ye. Word of what's happening outside must have reached the higher-ups by now. With the Tibetan Medicine Pavilion being such an important place, they'll definitely send someone over. Delay them for a while, and we'll reunite later."

Chen Qing exchanged a look with Jiang Zhuo, and Jiang Zhuo hesitated for a long time before finally agreeing.

"Then be careful."

Chen Qing nodded, and hiding in the night, he and Hua Qiufeng climbed onto the roof, avoiding the killer's eyes and entering the Tibetan medicine pavilion.
