Gulu gulu...

Four carriages loaded with large wooden barrels drove slowly through the long street and gradually came to the back alley of Wutong Street, stopping outside Sifangzhai Kitchen.

Zhe Yunli wore a bamboo hat and dressed up as a chivalrous girl, crawling on the building, looking down at the large kitchen courtyard, where the mist could be seen steaming, and there was a large open-air stove in the middle, with a lamb being roasted on it, and the apprentice was cooking beside it.

With the sauce, the grilled meat is shiny, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside...

"grumble!!!"

When the birds saw this scene, their eyes were straightened, and their claws were a little disobedient as they walked past.

Zhe Yunli quickly pushed down Niaoniao's head and carefully observed the kitchen where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was possible. As a result, he found an old man with a white beard walking out of the house holding a tobacco bag and came to the carriage:

"Why buy so much?"

"Oh, there is a lot of goods coming, the boss is eager to sell, asking for a low price, half selling and half giving away..."

"Have you never heard of the saying that cheap goods are not good ones? Can you pick the cheap ones when you put food in your customers' mouths?"

"I have inspected the products from Yanzhou Jiangwangfang and they are of very good quality..."

The old man with the white beard looked quite fierce, so he asked the waiter to lift the oilcloth, find an unopened wooden barrel at random, pry open the lid, and take out the sauce bricks from inside to weigh:

"Ha! It's really Jiang Wangfang's product... Open it and see if it's covered in yellow mud. Yan Shang's heart is dark...'

"okay……"

…

When Zhe Yunli saw the kitchen clerk cutting the sauce cubes, he couldn't help but feel confused, and then his eyes were shocked.

I saw that after the two guys separated the soybean paste bricks, they found that the inside and outside were about the same color. They were all authentic Yanzhou doenjiang. The same was true when they opened a few more pieces.

Even the old chef below was stunned by this scene. He didn't understand why the merchant at the dock suddenly started charity.

After Zhe Yunli was at a loss for a moment, he secretly thought that something was wrong, and knew that he had been tricked - among the dozens of wooden barrels in the cabin, only Yanzhou Doenjang should have been removed to cover up others' eyes, while the real thing was still on the ship.

After Zhe Yunli reacted, he immediately got up and ran towards the outside of the city. After running a few steps, he threw out the bird who was still looking at the roasted sheep:

"Go to Cousin Jing quickly and tell him that the things are still on the boat and ask him to..."

"Dong dong dong——!!!"

Before he finished speaking, intensive drumbeats suddenly came from the city wall, and the whole city was instantly silenced.

Then there was a lot of noise, and the officers and soldiers who were patrolling the streets ran towards the east city wall almost at the same time.

Tap tap tap...

Zhe Yunli's heart skipped a beat, knowing that something big had happened, he quickly threw the bird out and ran towards the imperial city...

——

On the other side, Yutan Villa.

The sky has not yet completely darkened, and gorgeous palace lanterns have been lit up halfway up the mountain.

The maid who won the football match today was commended by the empress and a dinner was held in the villa, where many maids sang and danced to celebrate.

The losers group were pitifully working as usual in the villa, and could only look at them with envy from afar.

As the current Prince Jing, Dongfang Liren could not be punished to work even if he lost. After nightfall, he sat in the study with a stack of files in front of him and slowly read through them with a gold pen:

"Dongfang Shuoyue has not left the capital for ten years, how can he die secretly?"

It has been several days since Ye Jingtang got the news from Nanxiao Mountain. At this time, the imperial court reacted. Now that the leader of Pingtian knew it, it was difficult to say that it was Ning'er who leaked it. He just came back to Liren to ask, and he had already told the general situation. Of course,

The source still said that Master Xuanji discovered it accidentally.

Ye Jingtang stood behind Dongfang Liren's chair, lowered his head to check the files together, and responded:

"I guess it's King Yan who is planning it behind the scenes. As long as something happens to the Holy One, King Yan will be the one who benefits..."

Dongfang Liren shook his head: "How can the inheritance of the imperial throne be such a child's play? It's just like the Jianghu sect. The old master who has nurtured you dies and passes the throne to his son. If you want to replace him, you can do it in an honest way.

My son was chopped into pieces? After he was chopped into pieces, do you think you can sit firmly in the position of leader?"

"Does the imperial family also pay attention to these things?"

"I won't say it in private, but I still have to show off on the stage. No matter how rebellious King Yan is, he can't think of using regicide to gain power. I suspect there are other forces, such as green bandits,

Beiliang, the Pingtian Sect, and even the King of Liang, supported Dongfang Shuoyue in plotting rebellion behind the scenes, hoping to force the King of Yan to rebel in a way that was already done."

After Dongfang Liren spoke for a moment, he closed the file and frowned again:

"Black Feather Grass is not a poison. It has a short effect and is not harmful to people. Dawei is also rare. There are no doctors who will study the antidote for this thing. They specialize in researching antidotes that have immediate effects. If you are lucky, it will take ten days and a half.

It will be next month until a large amount of allocations are released and distributed to the Forbidden Army... Prince Yan chose Black Feather Grass because he found out about the imperial court's drug reserves and exploited the loopholes. If he really let him take action, the Forbidden Army outside the villa would definitely collapse...

…”

"It's really hard to guard against poison gas warfare, but it depends on the weather. Strong tailwinds and headwinds can easily hurt yourself..."

Ye Jingtang was about to speak, but suddenly frowned and looked out the window.

Dongfang Liren looked back and then looked at the window. His ears twitched slightly, as if he heard some noise coming from down the mountain:

"what happened?"

"There's water somewhere, why does it smell like smoke..."

…

Ye Jingtang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly came to the study window and looked outside the mountain. It could be seen that on the Baishi Avenue at the foot of the mountain, there were many commanders of the imperial army running towards the river, and there were also some secret guards in the village who jumped up to the roof, looking around.

.

It was already dark at this time, and the gentle river breeze blew in his face. Ye Jingtang sniffed, and sure enough he smelled a faint smell of smoke. He scanned the river field carefully, and soon found a red spot on the river upstream.

Because the distance was far away, he picked up the telescope in the room and looked around, and then he saw clearly that it was a ship. The entire deck was covered by unknown objects, blocking most of the firelight. Only some tongues of flames could be seen coming out of the gaps in the ship, and the light flickered.

It was dark, and it was obvious that the cabin was blowing smoke out.

"Holy shit..."

Ye Jingtang's expression suddenly changed, he quickly put down the telescope and shouted to the foot of the mountain:

"Enemy attack! Cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel, seal off all the main entrances and exits, shoot and kill those who trespass!"

Dang Dang Dang——

Phew~~~

Bang!

The moment the shouts came out, the entire villa was agitated, warning gongs and signaling fireworks went up, and countless guards poured out from everywhere.

At the same moment, dazzling fire suddenly erupted in the woods around Yutan Villa, and a thunderous explosion instantly filled Jiang Ye:

Boom boom boom boom——

It was a dark and windy night, and a series of loud explosions came like an overwhelming force. Under the cover of night, there was no trace of the enemy, let alone how many people were lurking.

The Forbidden Army did not know the enemy's direction, so they all retreated to the outside of the villa to form a circular formation and set up powerful crossbows. However, some people could already be seen falling behind, or running and doing front flips. They were obviously not thinking clearly.

Ye Jingtang secretly thought that something was wrong, so he turned around and picked up Dongfang Liren, who wanted to check out the window, with one hand and ran towards Xilongchi:

"Cover your nose."

Dongfang Liren was caught off guard by the sudden movement, but he still had a calm mind and did not struggle. Instead, he hugged Ye Jingtang's neck and shouted sternly to the outside:

"It's Black Feather Grass. The imperial army cannot guard the mountain gate. All secret guards go to the quiet room to guard the entrance. Order the garrison to rush to rescue immediately..."

Boom boom boom——

The deafening loud noise spread far into the mountains and fields, almost suppressing the shouts from all sides. It was heard from all directions. It was obvious that the opponent was deliberately disrupting the garrison position.

Ye Jingtang didn't stop for a moment and rushed directly into the Xilong Pond not far away.

The empress of the Wei Dynasty was taking a bath in the hot spring pool. She drank loudly. After a loud noise was heard, she stood up and asked the palace maid to put on her bathrobe.

As a result, when the empress stood at the edge of the bathing pool, with water drops rolling down her slim and graceful figure, she saw Ye Jingtang flying up from outside the wall like a monkey in the sky, and landed accurately in front of her.

.

thump--

"ah--"

The empress didn't react at all, but the maid next to her who was about to serve and dress was so frightened that she screamed with a horrified expression.

After landing in the Night Terror Hall, I looked up and saw a field of white flowers, white balls hanging with water droplets, and a barren little hollow beside the bathing pool.

But Ye Jingtang didn't have the time to appreciate the beauty of the imperial concubine when she came out of the bath. He stepped forward and hugged Yuhu's waist, hugged her and ran towards the back of the Dragon Washing Pond.

"Night Terror Hall!"

After all, the empress is an emperor of a generation, with a terrifyingly tyrannical mind. Even if she is carried away naked by a man, her expression remains calm, she hugs her chest with her hands and frowns:

"The thief is outside the mountain. Even if he can fly, it will take him a while. Do you need to be so anxious?"

Dongfang Liren was held on the other side and saw her sister being naked in the arms of her sweetheart. She was extremely anxious and confused for a moment, and then began to explain to the rash man:

"The thief is so powerful and his origin is unknown. Go to the quiet room first and don't worry about these small details."
