Seeing that the princess had made up her mind, Xia Yan could only nod helplessly and said worriedly: "Princess, you must be careful!"

"Don't worry, you just stay outside and if someone comes, you just..."

"Yes! Princess." Xia Yan replied.

Ouyang Yunyao looked around the entire second floor again. Although she did not find any guards secretly on the floor, she felt that the people in this strange Wanhua Tower would be very vigilant.

So she whispered something in Xia Yan's ear. After listening, Xia Yan nodded solemnly and then turned and left.

Not long after, a man who looked like a servant appeared on the corridor on the second floor. He was holding a plate and quickly came to the door of the house.

The servant held the plate steadily in one hand and knocked on the door gently with the other: "Knock knock knock... knock knock knock..."

"Damn, who is it?" A drunken voice came from the room, with a bit of impatience.

"Master, I'm here to serve you food and wine." The servant answered calmly, but there was a barely perceptible light flashing in his eyes.

The door creaked open, and the man who opened it looked puzzled. He stared at the boy and asked, "Who asked you to deliver this?"

The servant lowered his head, hiding the dark light in his eyes, and said respectfully, "The shopkeeper asked me to deliver it."

The man who opened the door looked back at his companions and asked in confusion: "Why is Old Man Yao so nice today?"

The man inside was just worrying about running out of wine, and when he heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "My friend, ask him to bring it in quickly. It must be the boss who asked the shopkeeper to send it in as a reward for us."

The man who opened the door paused, then opened the door wider and motioned for the servant to bring the plate in.

The servant carefully put down the wine and food, bowed slightly and turned to leave. The door was then closed again and peace returned to the doorstep.

Looking at the food and wine, the drunk man reached out and grabbed the chicken on the plate. "Hey! What's wrong with the boss today? He's so generous that he actually gave us a roasted chicken!" He said loudly.

"Tao Dahu, you can't drink anymore! If the boss sees you so drunk, he will..." another man reminded.

"My buddy! Why are you always picking on me and nagging me? Isn't this sent by the shopkeeper? It's a reward from the boss! Why can't we drink it?" Tao Dahu glared and waved his hands impatiently.

"Why do I feel like something is wrong! Tao Dahu, can you tell me when the boss has ever given us alcohol?" Tiezi looked at the drunk man in confusion and said, "This wine might have problems."

"I think you're really thinking too much! This is Wanhua Tower, our territory. The women inside today will definitely be useful to the boss. If you don't drink, I'll drink it alone, and you can't eat this chicken!" Tao Dahu said, tearing off a piece of chicken and stuffing it into his mouth. He also shouted: "It's delicious"

Ouyang Yunyao, who was walking towards the inner door, looked back when she heard this and thought to herself, this boy is quite vigilant.

The man named Tiezi looked at the golden and fragrant roasted chicken and was reluctant to give it up. He hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't want to drink anymore. Tear off a chicken leg and a chicken wing for me. I'll go in and see if the person is awake."

Tao Dahu took a sip of wine and waved his hand, "Go! Go! I'll eat first." It seems that this man can drink quite a lot, he drank quite a bit but was not drunk.

Ouyang Yunyao found that the door to the inner room was locked. She was about to use drugs to knock the two people unconscious. When she heard someone was going in, she was delighted: Isn't this just right? So she stood quietly by the door, waiting for him to open it.

Ouyang Yunyao had just quietly come in behind the servant who brought in the wine and chicken. That servant was Xia Yan in disguise.

The man named Tiezi took out the key from his pocket, quickly opened the door of the inner room, and walked into the inner room.

He came to the bed, opened the curtains, and carefully looked at the woman lying on the bed, only to find that she was still motionless. He breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to leave.

This is a good opportunity! Ouyang Yunyao didn't wait for him to raise his feet. She quickly got behind him and slammed his neck hard.

The friend fell to the ground limply without even a groan. Ouyang Yunyao quickly supported him and put him on the ground silently. There was a cold flash in her eyes and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Ouyang Yunyao then turned around and lifted the bed curtain. With the faint candlelight coming in from outside, she carefully looked at the person tied to the bed.

The man was motionless, his face facing the bed, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep. Ouyang Yunyao was full of doubts: Could it be that this man was drugged? She reached out and turned the man's head over.

When Ouyang Yunyao saw this person's face, she was very excited. This was exactly the Princess Ronghui whom they had been looking for all night.

Although the little fox spirit's tracking skills were generally correct, she knew in her heart that this might be Princess Rong Hui, but she was still very excited when she actually saw that this was the person she was looking for.

Ouyang Yunyao saw that her eyes were tightly closed, but she realized that she might be awake, so she gently patted Princess Ronghui's little face.

Princess Ronghui knew in her heart that this person had discovered that she was awake, so she had to open her eyes. She turned her angry gaze towards the person who patted her.

But there was no one in front of her, which frightened the princess so much that her eyes were wide open in fear. If she could make sounds, she would probably scream out in fear.

When Ouyang Yunyao saw her reaction, she realized that Princess Rong Hui couldn't see her. She couldn't help but find it a little funny, so she leaned over and whispered in her ear: "I am the Princess of Jing, please don't make a sound."

Princess Rong Hui stared at the source of the sound with her eyes wide open. She was very confused and wanted to ask, "Why can't I see you?" But she couldn't open her mouth.

She shook her head, wondering if she was dreaming? Was it Princess Jing who was talking to her in her dream? She blinked and found that she was not dreaming, but why couldn't she see her?

At this moment, a drunken voice came from outside: "My friend, what are you doing? Why haven't you come out yet? Is he awake? Are you going to eat alone?"

Immediately afterwards, there was a "creaking" sound of a stool being pushed open, and Tao Dahu stumbled into the inner room.

Ouyang Yunyao quickly flashed to the door, and when the drunk Tao Dahu walked in, she punched him in the back of the head. Tao Dahu uttered a vague "Who..." and fell to the ground with a "thump" and fainted.

Ouyang Yunyao quickly returned to the bedside and took the cloth out of the princess' mouth, but found that she still couldn't speak.

She sighed: "You have been drugged." As she said that, she took out a hundred-poison pill and stuffed it into Princess Ronghui's mouth.

He said, "Princess, there is no time to untie the ropes on you now. Hide in my Qiankun bag first, and I will untie it for you when we get out."

Princess Ronghui nodded, and was sent into the space by Ouyang Yunyao's wave of her hand.

Ouyang Yunyao was just about to walk towards the door when she heard three slight knocks on the door. This was the secret signal Xia Yan gave her: someone was coming!
