The day had not brightened as the panicked and uneasy Yuan Hongdao followed a small alley in the west of the city and escaped toward the direction of Lotus Pond SquareHe moved carefully the entire way and avoided the Overwatch Council's search, as well as the patrolling Jingdou GarrisonWith great difficulty, he came to a private residence
He wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat dooodenly by the table in a dazeFor a long tireat thingsEven the previous Priht down personally by hi still shocked and frightened him
Presumably, everyone in the Eldest Princess' manor was already deadIn sodaoHowever, to the best of everyone's knowledge, he was still the Eldest Princess' trusted aideIf he had not escaped earlier, he would probably have been killed on the spot by the Sixth Bureau swordsmen
That was if Fei Jie didn't act first

This private residence was the Overwatch Council's dao tilted his head and saw a cup of tea on the tableWithout hesitation, he drank it to soothe his dry throat
”Are you not afraid that there is poison in the tea?”
A ht s Sir Yan's father, the previous head of the Fourth Bureau, Yan Ruohai
Yuan Hongdao glanced at hi his identity, he quietly said, ”I never had any hope that I would survive”
In the opinion of the Qing Kingdo captures thisalready demonstrated that the Emperor could not tolerate the Eldest PrincessFurtheriven the Emperor's and Director Chen's actions, only half an hour was needed before the Eldest Princess' faction would be swept clean
If the Eldest Princess was no longer a threat, then a spy like him would also be wiped aithout a traceHowever, Yuan Hongdao did not feel any sense of sorrowEver since he began to follow Lin Ruofu o, he had been prepared to sacrifice hidom
Yan Ruohai only suise that had been prepared for hi timePerhaps you don't know this, but the Eive up any subordinate”
Yuan Hongdao [JW1] was slightly surprised and s with a frightened expression flashed in through the back doorWhen she saw Yuan Hongdao clearly, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide in a shocked expressionIt seeht that the other person would appear here
Yuan Hongdao was also shocked because he had once seen this woAt that tiirlSo, this serving girl was also the Eirl and furrowed his brows”You cairl lowered her head as she debriefed”Last night, I had just left when Eunuch Hong personally surrounded Guangxin PalaceI didn't dare lanced at the two of them and said, ”Both of you have provided meritorious service to the courtThe Emperor and Director are both very pleased with your actions these two yearsToday's , so we had to let you expose yourself to each otherIt is also prevents any unnecessary losses in the future because you don't know each other's identity”
Not ave a few instructions then began to lead the Overwatch Council's two dao furrowed his brows and asked, ”Where are we going?”
”You're going back to Xinyang,” Yan Ruohai spoke each word carefully”Go wait in Xinyang”
Yuan Hongdao didn't quite believe what he had heard and raised his head to ask, ”Are you saying that the Eldest Princess will still return to Xinyang?”
”Just in case,” Yan Ruohai said quietly”No one is certain when it comes toafter you arrive in Xinyang, I will tell it to you slowly”
He turned his head again to the serving girl and said, ”You will stay hidden in the capitalIf so happens in the future, we'll still need you to enter the Palace”
At the end, the noh-level official frodao and the serving girl”Thank you for your hard work”
The room fell silentYan Ruohai looked at the wall outside theand thought about the colleague that just leftHe furrowed his brows thinking of so time, he smiled
Despite the Eldest Princess' power, shrewdness, and tricks, the Overwatch Council only needed half an hour to co the quickest speed andclean appeared to be very easyIt con with people's respect and estio, the Overwatch Council buried two spies beside the Eldest Princess, particularly, Yuan HongdaoAs early as when the Eldest Princess set her eyes on the attractive and intelligent scholar Lin in the idao had been placed beside scholar Lin
If one were speaking of the serving girl, she only knew of the Eldest Princess' preferencesAt the sa Zhu to ”coincidentally” discover the hidden ist and had a thorough understanding of the Eldest Princess' power and goals
With such a person secretly sending es to the Overwatch Council, how could the Eldest Princess' side stand against the stor had never considered the Eldest Princess as an important enemy and why the Overwatch Council's attack today appeared so accurate and vicious was all because of this
Yuan Hongdao was a the first spies the Overwatch Council scattered outAfter experiencing many years of wear and tear in the court and in the world, he was the last one left of that groupHowever, now, he did not know that the present Overwatch Council had long changed fro had long ago placed hiurehead was like this”Everything for Qing Kingdom” was still theof theirs had to be organized by Chen Pingping
