Someone followed behind him.

Even though he did not feel the sign of being spying, Wu Jian was sure that behind him, there must be a spy sent by King Ning to track and monitor him, and it is very likely that the Ye Owl who brought him back to Prince Ning's mansion before.

But Wu Jian did not show any concerns. He was locked in the small yard of the Ning Prince's Mansion for more than ten days. He was almost forgetting the taste of freedom.

Although he had food and drink in the Ning Palace, and even two maids served him in daily life, in Wu Jian's opinion, this life of only more than ten days was more than the tragic years he could only stay among beggars and refugees when he fled before.

So, although he said to King Ning that he needed to come out to understand the situation, in fact, today he left the palace when the sky was just dawn and the curfew was just lifted. More so, he just wanted to go out and enjoy the taste of freedom.

Even though he knew in his heart that the word "freedom" was not actually true.

...

"Is that the goal this time?"

When Wu Jian was like a cage bird that finally flew back to the blue sky, he seemed to be wandering in Hongdu Prefecture and eating many common snacks for the people in the city, he didn't know that at a place dozens of steps away from him, the two of them were locking their eyes firmly on him sitting at the food stall, leisurely enjoying the food.

"It seems that he has done a good job and has indeed been mixed into the Ning Prince's Mansion."

Compared to the person who asked the question, the other person was obviously more familiar with Wu Jian’s situation.

"Ha, if I could get such a lot of money from Xuanwu like him, I would definitely be better than him."

The person who asked the question before did not seem to be as happy as his companions because he saw Wu Jian. Moreover, it sounds like he should be from the North Pole Heaven or Di Ting, and he has no respect for Xuanwu, the nominal leader.

"Ha, the Ruo Ning Palace is really as easy as you imagined to enter. How could the Lord grit his teeth and take a huge risk to hand over this task to an outsider?"

My companion didn't seem to feel angry when he spoke about Xuanwu, but he couldn't help laughing at his obviously sour words.

"Hmph, what difficulties can there be? Although Dongjitian has been buried in the hands of six doors from the Qinglong, there are still many fish that have missed the net. What's the difficulty of pretending to be one of them?"

However, it was obvious that he was a little disdainful of his companions' ridicule.

"A mere seldom take a step forward in the gate of that royal palace. Even the deadly soldiers sent to assassinate the defenseless Xuanwu, you can fool it as much as you want. There are so many people in Dongjitian, can he still know the situation of everyone?"

"If he is really just an incompetent waste as you said, how could Liangjiangtang be removed from Hongdu Prefecture almost overnight, and even Hongdu Prefecture dare not stay there and run away directly?"

Looking at his very rational companion around him, who was a little too arrogant and was unable to help but shake his head gently.

"As for the failure of assassination, the position of the Xuanwu Lord in the capital was enough to find the position of the Lord Xuanwu in the capital, just because he had not expected that he would have three holes in advance and changed his house and went to bed after nightfall. Being able to do this is enough to prove that this King Ning is not simple."

As he said that, his companion couldn't help but look at him, and said in a slight voice.

"After all, even if you have been with the Master Xuanwu for many years and have great strength, you have spent several months and have not found any trace of Master Xuanwu, right?"

The arrogant man with disdain and ridicule on his face, after hearing that his companion had said very accurately what he had been doing secretly for several months, his expression on his face changed, and his pupils immediately spread rapidly. Then, as if he was afraid of being seen by his companion, he immediately narrowed his eyes and tried his best to control the expression on his face, so that he could calm himself down quickly, at least on the surface.

"You are following me?!"

After forcing his mind to calm down, he looked at his companion again, and a dangerous light appeared in his eyes.

"Ha, don't be so nervous."

But the other party seemed to ignore the dangerous light in his eyes, and there was still a faint sarcasm on his face.

"If I have reported these messages, do you think you can still stand in front of me and question me?"

"Hmph. I knew that you guys who said respect had actually turned completely black."

After staring at his companion's eyes for a few seconds, he finally put down his guard all over, couldn't help but snort coldly, and turned his head away with a little disgust.

"Ha, each other."

His companions obviously did not feel dissatisfied with his evaluation. On the contrary, they seemed to have been praised and showed a very bright smile.

"Okay, since everyone's goals are the same, there is nothing to say next. Complete this task as soon as possible and return to the capital as soon as possible."

He seemed unwilling to waste his talk, and seemed to feel that continuing to argue with him would not be of any benefit to him, so he changed the topic.

"Maybe, after successfully returning to the capital this time, you will be able to see the old turtle that has been hiding in the turtle shell."

Perhaps he had confirmed that his companions around him had similar thoughts in his heart as he did, and when he talked about Xuanwu, he became increasingly uneasy.

"Haha, so what if I see it? Do you really think you can really kill him with your own strength?"

His companions had no objection to the "old turtle" he used to refer to Xuanwu, but they obviously had no confidence in his abilities.

"At least, only by confirming where he is first, can he succeed be possible, right?"

Even he himself did not deny this. After all, as the Lord of the North Pole Heaven and the founder of Di Ting, Xuanwu's more than ten years of power was obviously not so easy to eliminate in their hearts. What's more, in Di Ting, there may be some people who have similar thoughts to them, but most people will eventually stand by Xuanwu and act according to his orders.

Fortunately, his mentality is still very optimistic.

"I don't deny this. But, as I said before, you're too simple to see this task."

But his companions around him seemed to have been determined to sing the opposite tune today. Even though they had agreed with his opinion, they still did not forget to change the subject, deny it again, questioning his words and ideas.

"This guy has already walked out of the heavily guarded Prince Ning's Mansion. Now he is in front of you and me, so what's the difficulty?"

"That's because you are completely attracted by the bait in front of you. You didn't notice the hook wrapped in the bait and the hanging thread tied to the hook."

"You mean he has a tail behind him?!"

Faced with such obvious prompts, he naturally couldn't not understand, but this made his expression even more excited.

"This is impossible! I've checked it long ago, there's no tail behind him!"

"Of course there will be no tail behind him,"

Facing him with a very excited expression, his companion still looked slow on his face, but what he said seemed like a big bell in his ears, which shocked him.

"Because the tail that was originally following him had already become your tail when you went to investigate before."

But not far away, another figure was even more shocked than him.

"You have been following us for a long time. Haven't you shown up yet?"

However, just as the figure had just come back from the shock and wanted to withdraw immediately and escape from danger, the sound that had just shocked him rang out at the right time.

"Hahaha."

Maybe I felt that it was too cowardly to retreat like this, or maybe I had full confidence in my skills, and I felt that even if the other party joined forces, I could not stop me. But after less than three breaths, a somewhat rampant laughter rang out.

"Good ears."

As the laughter subsided, an old man wearing a navy blue cheesecloth jacket and looking dry and thin appeared in the eyes of the two. It was Ye Xiao who followed King Ning's order to follow Wu Jian.

"Where is the senior who is too proud."

Although it was not what Ye Xiao said, and he could sense Ye Xiao's existence by ear, the man who called Ye Xiao still replied modestly with his fists.

After all, even though Ye Xiao did not self-destruct his identity, he had already vaguely guessed the origin of Ye Xiao. As an enemy, how could he tell the other party about his reliance on his life?

In fact, even this companion around him did not know how he sensed the existence of Ye Owl.

The so-called trump card is naturally the fewer people you know, the better, and the fewer the safer.

"My younger generation Chu Xun, this person is Zhu Zhuan. I wonder if the senior generation can give him a name?"

Chu Xun's attitude was very polite, as if two juniors in the world met a senior in the world whom he had admired for a long time.

"Ha, the etiquette is too complicated and it will be faked."

Ye Xiao faced Chu Xun's kindness, although he had a smile on his face, his attitude was obviously not very friendly.

"Since you already know that I have existed and you have deliberately said those words in front of me. Obviously, the clan has already guessed my identity. Since you have guessed my identity, why should you be so hypocritical?"

Zhu Zhuan, who heard Ye Xiao's words, finally figured out why Chu Xun deliberately lured him to express his dissatisfaction with Xuanwu again and again today. He finally understood why Chu Xun expressed his dissatisfaction with Xuanwu in front of him today.

It turned out that it was deliberately said to the old guy in front of me!

Although this time it should have been designed by Chu Xun and made a tough move, Zhu Zhuan did not feel too dissatisfied with Chu Xun because of this.

He had long been dissatisfied with Xuanwu. Although he would not rush to the thighs of the Prince of Ning's Mansion, he obviously would not feel any shame about the thighs of the Prince of Ning's thighs.

On the contrary, if he could take advantage of the opportunity to approach King Ning this time and give himself a chance to go further, he would not mind holding King Ning's thigh tightly.

After all, for him, King Ning's thigh is much thicker than Xuanwu.

More importantly, the Ning Wang family has great achievements and has always had considerable ambitions. Under the command of Ning Wang, he will probably no longer be as miserable as under Xuanwu.

As the saying goes, "Being an official for thousands of miles is just for wealth."

Even scholars who have read so many books of sages and great principles understand the "truth" that he Zhu Zhuan cannot understand.

He fought to the death, wasn’t it just the yellow and white thing?

Therefore, since they are all working hard, it is naturally best to work hard for a master like Ning, who can get more money.

...

"Ha, the lesson I have taught you."

Without mentioning Zhu Zhuan's thoughts, Chu Xun, who was scolded by Ye Xiao, still had a good attitude.

"I am the deputy head of Jingji Hall under the slogan. This is the Tongyou Zhu Zhuan in Jingji Hall. I have met my senior."

"Um."

It seemed that he was very satisfied with Chu Xun's attitude, and also seemed to be very satisfied with Chu Xun's tactfulness. After Ye Xiao nodded, he finally talked about his identity.

"I am the leader of the Death Soldiers under the King of Naining - Ye Busuo, Ye Owl."

When he mentioned his identity, Ye Xiao couldn't help but feel a sense of pride on his face.
