She didn't know where she took out a map from, and pointed to several locations on the map and gave instructions.

"We need to send people to monitor here and here day and night. If you spot any suspicious persons, report immediately."

"Besides," she paused, then continued, "I also need a bait."

"Bait?"

Someone raised a question, seemingly not understanding what Lan Wangshu was talking about.

"Yes, you have to have bait to lure the snake out of its hole."

Lan Wangshu's eyes were firm and his gaze was sparkling.

"Moreover, this bait must be able to attract the murderer and make him feel safe enough to take action."

Everyone looked at each other and no one spoke for a while.

"I can."

At this time, Xihe suddenly stood up, revealing his complete face.

"I'll be the bait."

Xihe noticed Lan Wangshu's gaze and volunteered to step forward.

"No."

Lan Wangshu refused without thinking and did not agree with Xihe's proposal.

"No, that's too risky."

"But……"

"No buts."

Lan Wangshu interrupted him, "This is an order."

Xihe wanted to say something, but seeing Lan Wangshu's determined expression, he had to give up.

"I am the bait this time. Your mission is to protect everyone."

"Isn't our mission to protect you?"

Xihe was quite unhappy when he heard this. As the king's personal guard, how could he be willing to do such a thing when he was next to Lan Wangshu?

"I am one of them. If they attack me, I will naturally deal with them. If not, the matter will be dropped. The one you need to protect is the one who may be implicated."

Xihe's lips moved, as if he had a thousand words to say, but they were stuck in his throat, and in the end, he said nothing.

"Everyone, this matter is a foregone conclusion. Tomorrow I will dress in women's clothing and seduce him with my sex appeal to lure the flower thief into the trap. You need to incite everyone to rush towards me like a tide. The purpose of this time is to catch the thief and seize the stolen goods. We must bring this scourge to justice!"

"That's right. Such evil villains deserve to be put to death. They should have been eliminated as soon as possible!" Upon hearing this, the bearded man clenched his fists tightly, his face filled with indignation.

Seeing this, Lan Wangshu became more suspicious. This person was so full of justice.

"This is Dong Lin, who is responsible for issuing missions. He is rigorous and impartial, and is the most principled person among the guards."

Donglin was originally a civilian supervisor. At first, he found Xihe's words pleasing to the ear, but as he listened, he felt something was wrong. Why was this iron-faced and impartial man making faces?

Looking at Xihe, this guy doesn't look like a good person. There must be something behind his words.

No wonder he has such an upright character. Lan Wangshu nodded in understanding, and the doubts in his heart immediately dissipated, as if the clouds had cleared and the sun had appeared.

Dong Lin's eyes were firm and steady, and his voice revealed a convincing power.

The man elaborated on the details and objectives of the mission, as if he knew the entire plan by heart. Lan Wangshu listened attentively, a surge of admiration welling up in his heart.

"Today's matter has come to an end for now. Donglin's words carry a hint of hope. He is a righteous man. I will go to Tonghua Prime Minister tomorrow to discuss the details to ensure that everything goes well."

Lan Wangshu's gaze lingered on everyone's face. All of them had determined expressions. They were well aware of the importance of this action.

Lan Wangshu raised his head and looked at everyone with gentle eyes.

Her voice was filled with gratitude and inspiring strength.

"Thank you for your great help. We will surely embrace the dawn of success together."

These words are like a warm spring breeze, blowing through everyone's heart.

At this moment, everyone's hearts are closely connected. They understand that only by unity can they overcome all difficulties.

They have faith and work hard for a common goal.

After the action, everyone's face was filled with the joy of victory. They hugged each other excitedly and celebrated this hard-earned victory together.

They raised their glasses together to cheer for each other's efforts. At this moment, tears flashed in their eyes and their hearts were filled with gratitude and respect for each other.

Such a scene reminds people of the good times they once had together in Xiqi, when there were no worries or troubles, only joy and happiness.

Unfortunately, the past days are gone forever and have become a passing cloud. Thinking of this, everyone’s heart is yearning for such days and looking forward to returning to such a time again.
