It's still the same small courtyard, but it's no longer quiet. There were several layers of people surrounding the courtyard outside, and their swords were unsheathed and filled with murderous intent.
Even though Lianxiang and the other two women in the yard were very smart, they still felt chilly and uneasy.
I had thought there would be danger before, but I didn't wait for the emergency evacuation order from above, so I kept hesitating, and ended up in this situation.
"Miss, it seems that the people surrounded by our clothes are the crown prince's personal soldiers. These people are unreasonable. Do you think they will deny the documentary voucher given by Master Shen?"
The anxious Xiaoqin couldn't help but climb to the window and look out several times. Every time she was stared back at by a cold, murderous look from outside, she felt very panicked.
"It must be effective for the time being, otherwise we would have been captured. We wouldn't just surround the courtyard." Lianxiang affirmed. But she really couldn't tell how long the current situation would last.
At the same time, the three women knew in their hearts that they could only have this buffer because of a document and three waist cards left by Master Shen during his last visit.
The document was an appointment document from the Yamen of the Black Flag Camp. Lianxiang and two maids were appointed as spies for the Yamen of the Black Flag Camp in Jingxi. Their mission was to lurk in the Yueying Tower to spy on intelligence. There are also waist badges to prove your identity.
This is actually the gift Shen Hao left for Lianxiang when he came to visit. Because it is impossible for him to stay by Lianxiang's side all the time, and it is not suitable, so the safest way is to change the identities of Lianxiang's three daughters, otherwise it will be difficult to maneuver in the current situation.
The Black Flag Camp Commander's Office is basically affiliated with the Xuanqing Guard Commander's Office. It is also a subordinate of the Xuanqing Guard and a member of the emperor's personal soldiers. In other words, in the final analysis, they were on the same side as the prince's army, so the document was not ignored.
"Will Lord Shen come?" Xiao Rong rarely looked down upon Shen Hao in terms of address at this time. She also understood that her life was saved by the man named Shen.
Lianxiang was not in the mood to make fun of Xiaorong's name. Under normal circumstances, she would have had a good quarrel with him. At this time, he just shook his head with a serious face and said: "He won't come. If he comes in person, it will look deliberate, which is not good."
"What if those people outside..."
"There is no chance! If there is, it is our life. You have already taken the soul-breaking powder. If something is wrong, swallow it without hesitation. Otherwise, life would be worse than death." Lianxiang changed her usual attitude. Delicate and delicate, she now exudes determination and calmness. She knows exactly what she should do and how she should do it.
The two maids nodded quickly. They had already held the so-called Duanhunsa in their hands, but their hearts were beating very fast. They had never been so nervous.
About half an hour later, there was a knock on the door. Lianxiang and the other three were startled at first, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief. Knocking on the door instead of breaking in basically shows the attitude of people outside.
"Here are your badges and documents. Take them. Also, please forgive me for disturbing you. We will leave now." The expressionless leader of the prince's army knocked on the door and took the documents and waistband that Lianxiang had given him. He handed back the card, then stiffly raised his hand and turned around to leave.
"No!" Lianxiang also imitated the other party with a straight face and cupped her hands. After that, dozens of the prince's personal guards in the courtyard outside flew away like a gust of wind. After a while, it was impossible to tell that this small courtyard was still tense not long ago.
"call!"
The three women looked at each other and let out a long sigh of relief.
"My, my legs are weak!" Xiaoqin was the timidest. Just now she was so nervous that she almost bit her lip, but now she relaxed and felt so weak that she couldn't stand.
"Me, me too."
"Shall we sit down and drink some water?"
When had the three women ever seen such a battle? My face was tense, but my heart was still very nervous and scared. They were just spies, not assassins who often struggled on the line between life and death. It was already rare to have such a calm performance just now.
The three of them drank tea and felt relieved. Then they put smiles on their faces and returned to their former appearance. However, after having fun for a while, Xiao Rong said worriedly: "Miss, it seems that Yueying Tower is really in big trouble now. A-level spies like us have been found out and blocked the door. I'm afraid the other people are... It’s a disaster but a disaster. Damn it, there was no news at all about this matter beforehand!”
A gentle-tempered person like Xiaoqin could not help but feel angry at this moment. She nodded repeatedly and said, "That's right! How do the people above do things? There is no news about such a big thing in advance? If it weren't for Mr. Shen If we make arrangements in advance, we will be dead this time.”
The two maids chattered to vent their dissatisfaction, but Pianxiang's face was gloomy and she didn't speak for a long time.
"Miss? Why don't you speak?"
"It's nothing, I just thought of something."
"Miss, what did you think of?"
Lianxiang took a deep breath, looked at the two maids and said, "Maybe the people above didn't get the news, but they got the news and deliberately didn't disclose it to us."
Hearing this, Xiao Rong and Xiao Qin were both surprised: "Why is this?"
"In order to use us as a target to attract the Spiritual King, no, it should be the Crown Prince now. Use us to attract the Crown Prince's attention and then cover up the higher-ups to hide. If my guess is correct, the message from above last time told us to be safe. The orders given by Cao Cao were actually designed to paralyze us. It’s just that we have been accustomed to trusting their orders for so long that we almost got killed.”
"this......"
Whether it's Xiaoqin or her smile, her face is not looking good. Because after all, they are not die-hard fans of Yueying Tower, and they are not the kind of fans who will die if they are told to die. No one likes to be used by others, let alone being abandoned casually like abandoned children. life.
Could Yueyinglou do such a despicable and shameless thing? No doubt, the eyes of the three women said it all. What can't the Yueying Tower do?
"So, we were abandoned, right?"
"Yes. We were abandoned."
Lianxiang leaned back in her chair and suddenly smiled: "Xiao Rong, do you still think we can't live without Yueying Tower?"
Xiao Rong shook her lips and said nothing. She is different from Xiaoqin and Lianxiang. She was picked up and raised by Yueyinglou, and she has a different kind of emotion towards Yueyinglou. But this incident seemed to have a big impact on her.
At night, there was a knock on the door of the courtyard again.
"who?"
"It's me, shopkeeper Zhang."
Shopkeeper Zhang? ! The three women were each surprised. If they were to be secret agents in Hongenyuan, then their top line would be Shopkeeper Zhang. This man is different from them, he belongs to the upper echelon of Yueying Tower. He usually has no idea where he is, so how could he suddenly knock on the door? And it seems that this person really wasn't captured, was he hiding beforehand?
