“A maid sent the letter She said that herto say anything more than that”
The letter was neatly written, like that of an accountant The content was si, and he did not anticipate a disappointing nature
“He wants to seethe letter a number of times, Gu Shenwei drew that conclusion
The three feether “That’s e presented it to you Please, you have to save the coach Our people and treasures are all at your disposal”
If the abductor only wanted that, things would be easier
Gu Shenwei decided to meet the visitor
Currently, there wereaway the three officials, Gu Shenwei brought five guards with him to the district of the craftsman The Tournament of the Royal Court was around the corner; the shops were all packed Two hours later, five guards returned, followed by a bunch of disheartened spies They had all lost their target; no one knew exactly how the Dragon King disappeared
Spies were still watching the Land of Fragrance encampment, but there were a thousand people on this broad land If they really wanted to cover every corner, they really should send out a small troop
At sunset, Gu Shenwei easily slid into the enca watched Maid Lotus and Chu Nanping had arrived earlier and had been patrolling in disguise At night, they would lurk into the dark to protect the Dragon King
The three officials were a bit nervous Although the youngest one was already in her 30s, they had lived in a reclusive country since their early times They were supposed to be servants for their entire lives When the royals in their country were brought down, they beca, they felt like the world was cru
Moreover, they were a little scared of the Dragon King They all waited outside the tent and reported every trifle that see horses that ran startled in front of their encampment
The enemy had finally est concern was that the enemy would directly send a huht fell, the visitor arrived It was another wo cloak She did not see “I’uess was proved correct The visitor did actually want to see him; however, this woman was apparently not the real visitor
The woman presented another letter with both hands As soon as Gu Shenwei took the letter, the wo the officials who tried to stop her
There was a simple map on the letter The writer had circled the words “royal court”, and smeared a thick ink mark on the northwest outside the circle Apparently, he was inviting the Dragon King there
The map was so obscure that Gu Shenwei did not think he would find it even if he were to spend days and night searching Moreover, he remembered clearly that in the north of the royal court, there was a large portion of land that was a forbidden zone
However, the fenized this place
“It looks like the Flower Camp”
“Flower Camp?” Gu Shenwei had a hazy memory of it
“The second wife of the Khan invited the Western Region Queens and Princesses to her party in Norland The Khan designated an area in the north to accorance was an exception The coach brought us there, and it looks just like the place on the ot complicated The northern area was a forbidden zone, and all prestigious wo should be discovered there, he would be butchered and no one would blame Norland at all
The three officials volunteered to gather information “We’re women, and we’ve made a few friends there We won’t be suspected”
Gu Shenwei agreed and taught theet rid of possible followers Then, the three officials went straight to the northern encaroup of fes After that, all three of them went back; however, one official had been switched out for a soldier
It was dark and the switch worked
At ht, the official who had been switched returned As soon as she entered the tent, sheSonized me Look, another letter”
The visitor seeames
Gu Shenas not sure about his three suspects anymore The Norland lords and Old Man Mu would not play tricks like this; they would directly declare their conditions and threats, leaving no time for him to think
The letter had another address on it This time, the address was back in the district of the craftsman in the southwest There was also a postscript that read “any tion King’s patience, he was thinking too little of the latter Gu Shenwei snuck out of the Land of Fragrance enca Then, the three of them went to check out the place that was mentioned in the letter
It was the most crowded place in this area, thus suitable for an ambush One could hardly say which tent was definitely safe unless he had a pair of eyes that could see through things
During the fourth watch, when daas about to break over the area, Gu Shenas still waiting outside the target tent
“I’ll check” Maid Lotus volunteered “As long as you don’t show up, they won’t kill et trapped”
But they would probably hold her hostage as well, so Gu Shenwei disapproved “No, wait until dawn”
