So Guo Chengliang was here to take Yuan Shikai to bed. Because he had many wives and beauties, he didn't know which woman he was going to visit. Every night, he would listen to Yuan Shikai's impromptu decision.
On the other hand, Rufeng had gone after Yuan Shikai, which was quite a distance away. He saw a group of people walking around in the dark. He followed and saw that it was the guards who were guarding Yuan Shikai. Lun Feng was secretly delighted. He was getting closer and closer to Lan Jue. He saw that those people had stopped in front of a quiet little courtyard.
He saw that there was a shadow wall in front of the gate, and beside each of the walls was a mounted rock. On both sides of the gate, there were flowers and grass planted on both sides of the wall. Ruo Feng didn't pay any attention to him. He quickly hid behind the wall of shadows and peeked his head forward. A beautiful young lady with two maids holding lanterns opened the door and led Yuan Shikai inside.
Seeing Guo Chengliang standing in front of the door, he heard the sound of a door being locked from the inside. Only then did he turn around and speak to the guards, ”You guys stay here for now. Wait for them to come before leaving.” Then he walked quickly east by himself.
Rufeng had secretly made up his mind to go around to the east side and enter the courtyard to assassinate Yuan Shikai. He was about to move when he heard a series of orderly footsteps behind him.
Ruo Feng hastily turned his head to look, only to see that the four lines of soldiers had all come to an end. Ruo Feng was shocked. He was afraid that he would be discovered. He leaned against the wall, watching his surroundings. The guards at the door said, ”Deputy Xu has brought someone over. ”So fast!”
With that, Deputy Xu led the team to the door. Those guards were extremely happy as they said, ”Vice Battalion Commander, we will be leaving now.”
That aide Xu only replied with a ”hmm” and didn't see how he was going to assign the guards. Soon, a troop of more than a hundred soldiers scattered in front of the door and lay in ambush around the small yard.
After seeing all of this, Ru Feng was shocked. ”Impressive, impressive! But going in was not easy. ”Tonight, we won't be able to get the head of the bandits anymore.” There was a deathly silence, as if no one was there. Ruo Feng became even more cautious.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard footsteps approaching from the east. He was afraid of coming on patrol, so he took care to take a closer look. The sound of footsteps approached and he saw a man and a woman walking towards him. The woman seemed to be holding onto the man's arm, her head tilted over his chest.
Listening carefully, Zhang Xuan muttered to himself as he walked. The woman said, ”I asked you a question, why are you ignoring me?” Then he said, ”You're dumb, why aren't you saying anything?” The man just said, ”Don't make a sound.”
The woman said anxiously, ”Are you afraid? Don't be afraid. There were plenty of women around the old man. Even a month wouldn't be enough for me, much less a short period of time. He ignored me. Tonight, he went to Qing`er's place. Tomorrow night, he would find Cui Er. I don't want to fight for any more titles, so I want to follow you. Since no one knows anything about us, can you take me away from here? ”
It was unknown if the man was thinking or if he was doing it on purpose, but he still didn't make a sound. The woman shook his arm again and asked, ”Tell me, will it work? I don't want to keep sneaking around like this. ”
The man panicked and poked her. He whispered, ”Don't make a sound! There are more than a hundred soldiers lying in ambush here. ”
When the woman heard that, she actually became spirited again and said angrily, ”What are you afraid of!? I heard it when I heard it. I know that all the soldiers here are yours. This year, whoever's soldiers listen to who's who. A single word from you will send them back to heaven. ”
The man's voice grew louder as he pulled her away in panic. He then whispered, ”Don't spout nonsense.” Before long, the two of them were in front of Ruo Feng.
”This couple must be going to a secluded place where there are no guards,” he thought to himself with a smile. If I go with them, no one will notice me. ” He then quietly followed behind the two of them. After a long detour, the two people in front suddenly turned and disappeared.
He took a few steps forward. He saw an ingenious moon door on the east side and they went through it. He looked ahead again and saw a narrow, long, eastward lane. With a flash, he entered the cave. At the end, they reached the wall. He jumped onto the wall and left the Yuan Mansion with ease.
Walking on the street, Ruo Feng was elated. He thought to himself, ”Although I couldn't kill Yuan Zui tonight, my harvest is also great.” If I were to spread what I have heard tonight, Yuan Shikai would be infamous in the eyes of the world. This kind of disgrace was even worse than killing him. Then, I plotted to rob his treasure, disturbing his beautiful affairs. He must be so overwhelmed that he can't live on. Even if he was angry, it would only anger him to death. This was much better than killing him. Fine. I'll head back to the information station now. ” After thinking about it, he started walking again with the movement technique and soon disappeared into the night.
When he returned to the station, it was still dark. The owner of the shop was worried about him and was fidgeting. Seeing him come back, the owner was very happy. He made tea for him and brought him food. The owner said, ”Master is still not returning, I'm really worried for you. This place is filled with special agents, Yuan Shikai's subordinates are everywhere, if you are not careful you will fall into their hands. ”
”I was chased out of the Heavenly Altar by the guards during the day, so I decided to visit the Yuan Mansion at night.”
