Liu Rumei knew that she could not persuade him even if she tried to persuade him, so she immediately bowed and left.
After walking out of the room, she turned to look at Liu Ce and Ma Biao beside her.
"You two lead people into the mountain immediately, about twenty miles apart. One group will reach the mountain temple before dawn, and the other group will reach the steep slope. Keep this distance first."
Liu Ce and Ma Biao bowed and agreed, then turned around to make arrangements.
Liu Rumei stood in the yard and looked up at the stars. She calmed down and was about to return to her house when she noticed something was wrong on the roof in the distance.
The darkness seemed to be a little raised there.
Liu Rumei's thoughts suddenly moved, and she suddenly raised her hand, and a little cold star rushed towards it.
As she expected, the black shadow moved.
The black shadow jumped up instantly and retreated very quickly. Liu Rumei was startled, let out a light drink, and chased after him.
The black shadow ran fast, and Liu Rumei chased him very fast. He ran two miles away, and the distance between them was always about three feet.
The shadow found it difficult to get rid of Liu Rumei. He seemed to have murderous intent. He suddenly raised his hand and directed a cold light at Liu Rumei behind him.
Liu Rumei didn't know who the other party was, so naturally she didn't dare to raise her head, so she stepped aside and pressed against the wall tightly.
Liu Rumei dodged the cold light and tried to chase him again, but the other party had disappeared.
It's so fast, Liu Rumei admired sincerely.
He was full of admiration, but he also suddenly became nervous. Such a master came to the Liu family, not just to visit relatives.
Just as she was thinking, Ma Biao, Liu Ce, Ma Xiaoyi and others followed behind them, holding torches.
Liu Rumei took the torch, searched carefully on the ground and soon found the hidden weapon shot by the shadow.
This is a thin needle with a curved arc.
This needle is as thin as a cow's hair and is straight in front, but has several semicircular bends in the back.
In order for such a needle to penetrate the human body completely, it must use great force to achieve it.
Of course, it's difficult to get in, and even harder to get out. The pain suffered is beyond what ordinary people can endure.
Ma Biao glanced at the needle with surprise in his eyes, "Chu family needle."
"Yes, Jiangnan Chu family." Liu Rumei also said slightly.
There was a hint of helplessness in this voice.
"No wonder I can't catch up. It turns out they are the Chu family."
As he walked back, Ma Biao became worried.
"Miss, it is very possible that he overheard our conversation just now."
Liu Rumei nodded, "Yes, we must persuade the prince to give up his plan to enter the mountain tomorrow."
Liu Rumei took the two of them back to the mansion and immediately came to see the prince Xiao Jingyun.
"Your Highness, I just discovered that someone has been eavesdropping on the roof. Our plan may be leaked."
After listening to her report, Jamel Xiao smiled slightly and said, "So what if it's leaked? We have to go when we should."
Liu Rumei quickly bowed and advised, "Your Highness, the other party already knows our plan, and it would be too dangerous to act according to the original plan."
"Rumei, if you are discovered eavesdropping on our plan, do you think we will change the plan?" Xiao Jingyun asked.
After hearing his words, Liu Rumei's eyes lit up and her expression became more respectful, "Your Highness is right. The other party may not expect that we will still carry out the original plan, but we have been exposed to the other party's sight. It is still too dangerous for you to go up the mountain in person. ”
Jamel Xiao looked at Liu Rumei with a smile on his face, "So you have a better way."
"Your Highness, according to the original plan, we will still protect His Highness the Crown Prince as he goes up the mountain, but you have to go up the mountain with another group of people."
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyun looked at Liu Rumei in surprise, "You want to trick them into pretending to be real."
"Your Highness, we still have heavy troops to protect the fake prince going up the mountain. And you will go up the mountain with the villagers to collect medicine."
At this time, a young man next to Prince Xiao Jingyun spoke. He is Xiao Jingyun's personal bodyguard, named Zhou Quan.
"Your Highness, this is absolutely inappropriate. How can some mountain villagers ensure your safety?"
Liu Rumei looked at him and then turned to Xiao Jingyun, "Your Highness, I am not talking about anyone else. It is Chen Xiaobei who asked you to issue the edict a few days ago."
When he heard that it was Chen Xiaobei, Xiao Jingyun became interested. He smiled and nodded, "Okay, I have long wanted to see what kind of villagers are able to be so appreciated by Miss Liu."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Zhou Quan, "In order to make the performance more realistic, just follow Miss Liu's actions."
Yes, if there is no personal guard for the prince, who will believe that there is a prince in the team?
Zhou Quan became anxious, clasped his fists, and was about to say something else, but Jamel Xiao raised his hand to interrupt him, "Okay, stop talking, just do as I say. I believe Rumei's vision is not wrong."
Liu Rumei resigned and immediately made careful arrangements.
Ma Biao took Ma Xiaoyi, Liu Ziming, Liu Ziliang and other six elite soldiers to protect the prince and left Qingniu County overnight.
Liu Rumei stayed to arrange a play.
Chen Xiaobei was about to go to sleep, but was woken up by the village guard hurriedly knocking on the door.
After putting on his clothes and coming out, Ma Xiaoyi stood at the door with a smile on his face and gave him a fist.
"Brother Xiaobei, I'm sorry, something is urgent, so I'm disturbing you in the middle of the night."
Ma Xiaoyi was an old friend. Although Chen Xiaobei was unhappy, he still returned the favor patiently.
"Brother Yi, we don't need to be so polite. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Ma Xiaoyi nodded, "People of the bright side don't tell secret stories. His Royal Highness wants to visit Qingniu Mountain when he arrives."
Chen Xiaobei obviously did not understand what Ma Xiaoyi meant.
"Brother Xiaoyi, just go ahead. Although I have obtained the title deed for Qingniu Mountain, you can come and go as you wish."
Ma Xiaoyi hurriedly explained, "Miss Liu means to ask His Highness the Prince to pretend to be a villager collecting herbs and go into the mountains with you."
What?
Chen Xiaobei was stunned for a moment and looked at Ma Xiaoyi with wide eyes.
"Brother Ma, this is not a joke. His Royal Highness is a man of gold and jade. If anything happens to him, I will..."
Ma Xiaoyi smiled slightly and said, "Master Ma and I will also go."
"Brother Xiaobei, don't worry, you only need to lead the way and ignore the rest."
After receiving this promise from Ma Xiaoyi, Chen Xiaobei felt relieved and looked up at the sky.
"Now that you say that, when do you think we'll set off?"
Ma Xiaoyi remembered Liu Rumei's instructions, "Miss Liu said before I came that everything will depend on your orders."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Then you go back and rest. We'll leave again at dawn."
Ma Xiaoyi turned around and left. Chen Xiaobei returned to the room and briefly explained the matter to Cui Hongyu.
"Husband, why don't you go up the mountain all night? If you wait until dawn, you will have passed the mountain temple."
Chen Xiaobei smiled slightly, "Silly girl, have you ever seen anyone go up the mountain to collect herbs in the middle of the night? Didn't they always leave after dawn?"
After hearing this, Cui Hongyu suddenly realized.
"Then please rest early, husband. I will get up early to cook for you tomorrow morning."
Chen Xiaobei didn't sleep much that night.
