Lin Yao put the calligraphy and painting in his hand on the case, and said coldly:

"No need, the lord only ordered me to deliver things, and he has no other orders, so I will take my leave."

After that, he turned and left.

The young general said angrily:

"General, are you going to let them be so arrogant?"

Ren Heng took a sip of the new tea in the cup with a smile on his face, and said indifferently:

"Why are you angry? They have entertained us with delicious food and drinks for several days, and now they are still considerate to give gifts. We should be grateful in our hearts."

The young general couldn't listen anymore:

"Gifts? I'd like to see what kind of gifts they give! I think you, General, haven't been on the battlefield for a long time, and your vigor is gone! I..."

He rudely opened the "calligraphy and painting" that Lin Yao put on the tea table just now while feeling angry, but he lost his voice when he saw the contents inside.

"This is the waterway map between the two cities of Yangzhou and Huai'an. It shows all the strongholds where King Duan raised his troops with bandits. This..."

Ren Heng was still drinking tea with a smile on his face, as he had expected:

"Look, I told you earlier, people are here to 'give presents', right?"

The young general said aggrievedly:

"General!"

Only then did Ren Heng put down the teacup with a smile, stood up, and stretched his muscles and bones:

"Okay, okay, stop teasing you. Now that you know everything you need to know, and those who need to rest have had enough rest, order the army to pull out the camp tonight, and make another copy of this picture, and Feige will pass it on to the two. The Yangzhou navy stationed a hundred miles away, let them act together tonight, and we must hurry and take them down before the thieves react!"

He finally picked up the "calligraphy and painting" that was supposed to be "successful immediately", and said with a smile:

"After being a guest for so long, we only asked the host to take care of us. Now we should treat us as a 'return'. They all wish us success immediately, so we should naturally do things more neatly. Don't fall for their blessings."

Lin Yao didn't care about how Ren Heng arranged his troops after he got the blueprints. He only knew that his "gift" had been delivered, and the rest was up to Ren Heng himself.

What needs to be concerned about now should be another thing——

Lin Yao, who came out of Renheng's courtyard, turned around and walked to the place where the deputy commander was. Seeing that he really kept his promise to see him, Dang even stood up happily, and was about to put his arms around him when he came up.

Lin Yao gave him a cold look, and then he remembered that Lin Yao had always disliked physical contact with others, so he retracted his arms embarrassingly, and explained:

"Ahem...I'm so happy, I forgot how to measure."

Lin Yao withdrew his gaze and said coldly:

"Speak the truth."

The deputy commander quickly echoed:

"Yes, yes, business, business!"

As he spoke, he quickly took out more than a dozen portraits of soldiers in the army from his sleeves, and unfolded them for Lin Yao to see:

"Commander Lin, look, these guys are all bright figures in the army, and their loyalty to our lord can be learned from the sun and the moon. It's just that when the guards were selected earlier, they suffered some injuries and were not selected in time. Now the injury just healed, you see..."

Lin Yao didn't look closely, but only glanced briefly, raised his eyes and said:

"There are more people."

The deputy commander choked, thinking that there would be too many people. Commander Lin suddenly fell ill and was suddenly offered a way out, so he had to rush to grab it first, otherwise Commander Lin would stop having convulsions in two days and wouldn't give him another chance. What should we do?

But this can't be said directly, the deputy commander thought of a new way as soon as he changed his mind:

"The city is now under martial law, and the thieves are very cunning. In order to prevent the thieves from sneaking into the palace and getting close to the prince, it would be good to have more people."

Lin Yao said:

"Now there are two teams in the house, which rotate day and night. Each team has six groups. Every hour, the two groups exchange patrols. It is too simple and straightforward to simply increase the number of patrols. It is better to add two more teams to each team and patrol more frequently. It’s so hard for people to see the key.”

The deputy commander did not expect Lin Yao to be so subjectively active. Not only was he uncharacteristically willing to accommodate, but he even took the initiative to think of a way to confuse the king. He was immediately overjoyed:

"A good way, a good way! Then we... get the silver, and divide it into four or six?"

After speaking, he was afraid that Lin Yao would go back on his word, so he hurriedly said:

"I'm four and you are six. You know the commander, it takes a lot of money to get through the upper and lower joints. I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yao said impatiently:

"But, call them to be on duty tonight. I'll arrange the timing of the patrols quickly, so as not to teach thieves to sneak in."

So the deputy commander left happily, while Lin Yao stayed in the room alone, and drew the patrol route and succession timing after joining the dozens of people on a piece of paper, then folded the paper and put it in the In his arms, he walked out of the room.

Following the wishes of the deputy commander, he proposed to increase the number of shifts, which seemed to make the guards of the palace tighter. In fact, it was not the case. The original arrangement of patrols and exchanges was the most reasonable, well-organized and not chaotic. It seemed simple but covered The entire palace.

Especially the dormitory where King Rui lives, and the study area, almost every moment there are patrolling guards passing by, and the patrol routes are airtight. Nobody sneaks in.

But after joining these people, it was different. These people were not familiar with the mansion before, and it was a new defense. It seemed dazzling and very strict. No one would suspect that such a strict defense was actually deliberately avoided by Lin Yao. A gap was left for Fei Wusu and others outside the mansion.

As long as you enter the palace at the right time and place, you will be able to pass through layers of obstacles and arrive at the room and study area where King Rui is.

Lin Yao carried the confidential paper in his arms, walked out of the palace all the way, came to the breakfast stall in front of the palace again, and took out ten copper coins:

"Four steamed buns, one bowl of vegetarian porridge."

The boss laughed and shouted:

"Okay, wait a minute—"

The moment Lin Yao sat down, someone at the stall happened to get up. When Lin Yao passed by, their sleeves brushed against each other invisibly, and the piece of paper had quietly passed from Lin Yao's sleeve to the man's hand. inside.

As usual, the boss quickly took out four white and fat steamed buns from the steaming steamer, put them in a small plate and served them to Lin Yao, and then filled another bowl of warm vegetarian porridge and put them in front of Lin Yao. He took away the ten coins on the table and said with a smile:

"Please eat well."

Almost the same breakfast as in the past ten years, every day, Lin Yao took a mouthful of hot steamed buns, and drank a mouthful of warm porridge. The cage was opened again and again when the diners came, and white porridge came out. Steam, diffuse in the street.

The scene in front of him was so familiar that it seemed to be engraved in his memory, but this time, Lin Yao looked at the open gate of Duanwang Mansion not far away, but knew clearly——

Everything will be different.
