Shen Huaixin was confused, Huo Changhe was even more confused than him.

"Envoy Shen Cheng, the ones you lent me are the weak and sick. How good are their fighting capabilities? Don't you know? If it weren't for the few guards around me, my life would not have been saved. Most of them died in battle. On the spot, several were seriously injured and brought back for treatment, but they also died of their injuries.”

"I wrote down these circumstances and their list clearly. I sent someone to your house, but a counselor stopped me at the door and said I would hand it over to you personally."

"What? Didn't you see?"

Shen Huaixin didn't see any adviser. He originally asked the adviser to write a book about Huo Changhe and Princess Mingzhao, but the book was not written and people were talking about his father and Princess Mingzhao all over the street.

He also asked the counselor and found out that the counselor had disappeared a few days ago.

Now when he heard Huo Changhe mentioning counselors, Shen Huaixin felt a breath in his chest, feeling that Huo Changhe seemed to know everything.

They were arguing here, and Yan Ruyu was listening quietly, but she was not idle at all. Her attention was on the ruined temple behind her.

There was a lot of noise here, and there were gangsters shouting and yelling in the distance, but Yan Ruyu still heard a slight "click" in the ruined temple.

She knew this sound all too well, it was the sound of some kind of mechanism being activated.

She whispered something to her abbot.

The abbot understood, stood behind her, fished the myna out of the space, and stuffed it through the window hole of the ruined temple.

Shen Huaixin was completely unaware and said loudly to Huo Changhe: "I have never seen any counselors, nor have I seen anything written by the prince. In that case, you can write another one."

Huo Changhe came with a stern look: "Messenger Shen Cheng, I am not your subordinate. If something happens in your own house and the counselors can't control it, they will find the cause in your house. I will not do useless things."

Shen Huaixin pointed to the distance: "As for those people, can you bring some people to quell them, right?"

"Envoy Shen Cheng, you are the envoy protecting the city. Isn't this your job?"

"The envoy now wants me to inspect the food!"

After Shen Huaixin said that, he turned to look at the room: "Are you okay?"

"Sir!" The person inside yelled, but the sound didn't sound right.

When Shen Huaixin heard this, he felt a little happy and knew that it was done.

"What's wrong?" He turned around and held the lantern to enter the temple.

Yan Ruyu said: "I'll go take a look too."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Huo Changhe suddenly blocked Shen Huaixin's path.

Shen Huaixin frowned: "My lord, what do you mean? Please get out of the way and don't delay my envoy's food inspection."

Huo Changhe was calm: "I think that what Ambassador Shen Cheng just said is right. As a military general, it is your duty to kill bandits and destroy enemies. You see..."

He blew a whistle, the whistle was long and full of murderous intent.

As soon as the whistle fell, a dozen black shadows suddenly appeared on the trees on both sides. The shadows flew quickly, with unsheathed knives, like meteors and will-o'-the-wisps, and they rushed towards the gangsters.

Shen Huaixin's eyes suddenly widened: "You..."

Huo Changhe said calmly: "I know that it is a big deal for Shen Cheng to trade grain here, so I have been prepared in case someone robs the grain. Unexpectedly, it will come in handy."

There were shouts and clashes of swords in the distance. From such a distance, the smell of blood seemed to be drifting in the wind.

Shen Huaixin's eyes were cracked, and there was a sweet taste in his throat. He clenched his hands hard, and the lantern pole was broken with a "crack".

Huo Changhe glanced at Yan Ruyu from the corner of his eye. She had already led the abbot into the house.

Bago fell back onto Yan Ruyu's arm and hid in the curtain hat.

When Yan Ruyu entered the room, she placed two drug bombs, and everyone in the room was stunned.

"quick!"

The abbot immediately touched the grain bag, gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "It's grass inside, it's been transferred."

"There are so many, how do they adjust them?"

Yan Ruyu quickly looked at the ground: "I made a mark here just now, but now the mark is gone."

The abbot was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"There are mechanisms underground, and a large area of ​​the ground is made like an elevator. It can go up and down. Our food is put down, and their straw goes up."

"When the goods were inspected, they were told that we only gave them a few bags of grain, and the rest was grass."

The abbot was so angry that he suppressed his throat and said: "Bah! You are really nothing. You still want to ask for my food in vain. What should I do now?"

"He doesn't just want our food in vain," Yan Ruyu said in a cold voice, "he wants our lives."

"Stay back," Yan Ruyu waved her hand, "Go and see the door, I'll take care of it."

"it is good."

The abbot said nothing and did as Yan Ruyu said - he couldn't be of much help and must not hold him back any longer.

Yan Ruyu acted quickly and put the straw into the space. The same amount of grain was also prepared in the space, and she quickly took it out and put it back on the ground.

The abbot was sweating nervously. Shen Huaixin, who was just across the door, was already heading this way.

"Envoy Shen Cheng," Huo Changhe stopped, "don't you want to see what those gangsters look like?"

Governor Cao said on the side: "You should see, these people are so arrogant. You two are here and dare to be so provocative!"

Shen Huaixin glared at him, and Governor Cao shrank his neck again.

"No need. Your Majesty's men are so brave. It's great."

Every word in Shen Huaixin's words seemed to be grinded out from between his teeth.

"I'd better check the food first."

The abbot pressed against the door, but Shen Huaixin pushed it open.

"What are you doing? Open the door!"

The abbot gritted his teeth: "Wait!"

Shen Huaixin's expression changed: "What are you waiting for? What are you doing in there? Is there any problem?"

"No problem, why are you in a hurry?" the abbot asked angrily.

Huo Changhe said: "Envoy Shen Cheng, the night is still long, there is no need to rush at this moment."

Inside the house, Yan Ruyu put down the last food and poured some cold water to wake up the people.

They shook their heads and woke up dazed.

Shen Huaixin was already outside and ordered someone to knock on the door.

The abbot asked urgently in a low voice: "Are you ready?"

"All right."

When the people outside were about to hit him, the abbot suddenly let go and those few fell into the room.

Shen Huaixin entered the house with a lantern and looked around, but couldn't see anything unusual.

Huo Changhe also entered the room afterwards, putting his hand on the hilt of his sword and looking at Yan Ruyu first.

Yan Ruyu nodded imperceptibly.

Shen Huaixin looked around with sharp eyes, stared at the abbot and asked, "What are you doing?"

The abbot opened his mouth and started talking nonsense: "I have been with these grains for a while and have feelings for them. I want to say goodbye to them, can't I?"

Shen Huaixin sneered and took out the dagger: "Okay, then I'll let you say goodbye properly."

He pierced the nearest bag of grain with his knife and slashed hard, and white rice flowed out.

The abbot gritted his teeth and said, "Just test it carefully. Isn't this a waste of food? This is enough for a bowl of porridge."

Shen Huaixin was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't hear what he said, and then opened a few more bags.

Without exception, they are all filled with food.

Where is the grass? Where did it go?

Could it be that there was something wrong with the mechanism underneath and it was not replaced?

Yan Ruyu took a step forward: "Sir, have you finished the test?"
