Before Cui Hengyue could answer, the waiter standing in front suddenly shouted: "Here comes someone."

As soon as she finished speaking, dozens of people rushed out from all directions and immediately surrounded her.

There are so many waiters in a small inn, and the waiters are so alert. It really doesn't look like an ordinary inn.

Cui Hengyue couldn't help but guess the identity of the man in black. It must not be simple.

Then I thought about it, the man in black was able to sneak into the South Hall silently, and he could see the weak points in the defense of the Ksitigarbha Pavilion. He was already extraordinary in strength, and owning an extraordinary inn shouldn't be a problem.

Now, King Chu's people have not yet left Mingyang Town, so it is not appropriate for her to make any noise.

Thinking of this, Cui Hengyue said to these people: "I have something important to see Shopkeeper Sun, and I would like you to pass it on."

The guys looked at each other, and finally one guy turned around and left.

Not long after, the leaving clerk led a middle-aged man over: "Shopkeeper Sun, this is the lady who said she wanted to see you."

Shopkeeper Sun wiped his eyes, looked carefully at Cui Hengyue's exposed eyes, and asked doubtfully: "Dare I ask this little lady, do we know each other?"

"I didn't know him before, but now I know him." Cui Hengyue said seriously.

Shopkeeper Sun paused for a moment and then asked: "What do you want from me, little lady?"

Cui Hengyue took out the jade pendant from his arms and held it up with his hand.

Seeing the jade pendant, Shopkeeper Sun's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly bent over and walked over: "Little lady, please come this way."

As he spoke, he waved to the guys.

The guys dispersed immediately.

Shopkeeper Sun led Cui Hengyue all the way into the main room in the backyard before he dared to ask: "Where did the jade pendant in the lady's hand come from?"

Cui Hengyue said calmly: "I am your master's savior. Before leaving, he gave me this jade pendant and asked me to come to Fulai Inn in Mingyang Town to find shopkeeper Sun.

"He said that no matter what I ask for, Shopkeeper Sun can do it."

After hearing these words, shopkeeper Sun immediately knelt down and said, "My dear lady, if you have anything to do, just ask me. Sun will fight to the death."

Cui Hengyue straightened her back, held her head high and said, "First prepare a table of food for me, and then prepare a room for me, with hot water and clean clothes."

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."

Shopkeeper Sun turned around to leave, but was stopped by Cui Hengyue again: "Wait a minute——"

"Do you have any other instructions, young lady?" Shopkeeper Sun asked respectfully.

Cui Hengyue: "Don't leak out the fact that I live here. It's best if only you and I know about it."

Shopkeeper Sun: "Don't worry, little lady, those guys just now are my confidants, and they will never leak the fact that you have been here.

"As for you living here, I won't tell anyone else. From now on, you will live in this room.

"When my master came to Mingyang Town, he also stayed in this room. No one except me would come near this room."

Cui Hengyue looked satisfied: "Then there will be shopkeeper Laosun."

"You're welcome, young lady. Please sit down for a while and drink some tea."

After shopkeeper Sun exited the room, he explained to the waiters before going to the kitchen.

...

A certain village outside Mingyang Town.

Chen Linshen looked at his subordinates kneeling on the ground, suppressing the anger in his eyes: "We've searched for hundreds of miles? We haven't found it yet?"

Songmu knelt at the front and replied tremblingly: "Reporting to the prince, we have searched for hundreds of miles around, but we have not found Cui Hengyue.

"Moreover, we found that King Chu recalled all his people. Could it be that... Cui Hengyue has been captured by King Chu?"

At this time, a weak voice came from behind: "However, during the day, I saw someone in the next village holding Cui Hengyue's portrait and asking around, saying that their young lady came to Yunxuan Temple to offer incense and accidentally got separated.

"I guess those people pretending to be civilians must be the people of the King of Chu."

Chen Linshen looked at the speaker: "What's your name?"

"Guyuan."

Seeing that Chen Linshen was interested in a little guard, Songmu felt jealous, turned back and stared at Gu Yuan and said: "How do you know that the portrait they are holding is Cui Hengyue's portrait?

"If I remember correctly, you should have never met Cui Hengyue."

Gu Yuan lowered his head and replied respectfully: "The commander remembers correctly, my subordinate has indeed never seen Cui Hengyue, but after receiving the order, he secretly approached the people in Yunlin and saw the portrait of Cui Hengyue in their hands."

Pinewood: "......"

Chen Linshen showed an expression of appreciation: "Gu Yuan, you have done a good job. From today on, you will be on duty in the main courtyard."

"Thank you, Prince." Gu Yuan kowtowed excitedly.

Song Mu clenched his fists, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, Songmu regained his indifferent expression and unclenched his fist: "Prince, we have not found Cui Hengyue, and Gu Yuan has not made any meritorious service. I am afraid that everyone will not accept it if we transfer him to the main courtyard as an errand like this."

The joy on Gu Yuan's face instantly froze.

The other guards did not say anything, but the expressions on their faces showed their position, they were not convinced.

Chen Linshen glanced at the crowd and said with a smile: "That makes sense, so I will take back what I just said."

Hearing this, Gu Yuan's face turned pale, and his expression was full of disappointment.

Chen Linshen glanced at Gu Yuan and said casually: "However, if anyone can catch Cui Hengyue, I will give him an official status.

"Of course, if you all work together to catch Cui Hengyue, you will all be given official status."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly shone with light.

With an official position, not only does one's status rise, but one can also get an extra salary, and most importantly, one can gain the respect of the king.

Thinking of this, everyone said in unison: "Prince, please rest assured that we will do our best to catch Cui Hengyue."

Seeing the high morale of everyone, Chen Linshen was very satisfied and continued: "The King of Chu called back those who were visible to the public, but secretly sent people to search. This shows that the King of Chu has some scruples, and Cui Hengyue must be very important to him.

"Feilong Canyon is the territory of the King of Chu. The people of the King of Chu are most familiar with this place. There may be other places that we haven't thought of.

"From now on, stop searching for Cui Hengyue. First find the people secretly sent by the King of Chu. Keep an eye on them. Once they find Cui Hengyue, you will snatch him."

...

Yunxuan Temple was very quiet at night, as was the South Hall. It seemed that Cui Hengyue's incident did not cause any disturbance.

Just before midnight, two black figures sprang out from the south and north courtyards of the Ksitigarbha Pavilion respectively. They carefully avoided the guards and walked all the way from the roof to the verandah.

"You came."

Hidden in the bushes outside the verandah, Subiwen was very excited when he saw another black shadow.

Li Bier nodded and looked towards the cliff.

"Ever since Cui Hengyue fell off the cliff, the guards here have withdrawn." Su Biwen saw her eyes and explained.

Li Bier withdrew her gaze and looked at Su Biwen: "Where is the rope?"

"Here." Su Biwen took out the rope from a hidden bush.

Li Bier asked curiously: "When did you prepare it?"

She clearly saw him coming out of the North Courtyard just now.

"After I discussed it with you during the day, I asked someone to prepare it for me." Su Biwen looked a little proud.

Hearing this, Li Bier was shocked.

As far as she knew, those people that Su Biwen had attracted in the South Hall were also punished and asked to reflect behind closed doors. But he just said that he had people start preparing during the day, so there should be people from Su Biwen who were not punished.
