As for Lin Congyun, he quietly came out of the house, found a secluded corner and returned to the space.

She was sitting alone in the cabin, playing with a porcelain bottle that was exactly the same as the one she gave Zheng Qianzhi.

After Lin Congyun sent Zheng Qianzhi back to the backyard, he did not return to the space directly, but hid behind the rockery in the backyard and watched Zheng Qianzhi's every move.

The potion she gave Zheng Qianzhi just now was nothing more than spiritual spring water mixed with some herbs.

As for the poison in Zheng Qianzhi's body, which is a powerful laxative, it will first cause him to have constant abdominal pain, and then he will directly poop in his pants.

There was no poison in Lin Congyun's space. The most common things were sleeping pills. The laxative given to Zheng Qianzhi was taken out from the Imperial Hospital.

Of course, it has to go through her transformation before it can become a powerful laxative.

The reason why Lin Congyun did this was just to make Zheng Qianzhi obedient and cultivate an insider so that he could act more conveniently.

As for why he didn't just kill Zheng Qianzhi...

That's of course because if Zheng Qianzhi was killed, it would inevitably arouse Huo Xiongcai's vigilance, which would probably alert the enemy.

Therefore, Lin Congyun decided to keep Zheng Qianzhi alive and use him for his own purposes.

Thinking of this, Lin Congyun curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer.

The next day, Lin Congyun came out of the space and found that Bianyun Pass, an important border city that was usually bustling, was shrouded in a thick haze. It was so quiet that even the wind seemed to have held its breath.

She quickly crossed the street. The once busy market was now empty, the shops were closed, and the stalls on both sides of the street were hastily cleared away. It was as if Bianyun Pass had become a deserted city overnight.

There were also more soldiers patrolling the streets. If it weren't for the space in his hands, Lin Congyun would have been discovered long ago.

Lin Congyun, who was hiding in the space, carefully observed the movements outside. In order to catch her, Huo Xiongcai would not make such a big fuss, right?

Lin Congyun was confused, but she didn't dare to leave the space rashly. She wanted to see what Huo Xiongcai wanted to do.

However, Lin Congyun did not wait too long, and she soon knew the answer.

"Search every house, don't miss any corner, and you must find the thing for this general." Huo Xiongcai, dressed in armor and holding a long sword, directed the soldiers to search with a stern expression.

His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, scanning the streets, as if he wanted to see the hiding person through the empty streets.

Lin Congyun happened to see this scene in the space.

Are you making such a big fuss just to find something?

Looking for something?

Just then, Lin Congyun saw Zheng Qianzhi following behind her, so she quickly found paper and pen. When Zheng Qianzhi walked in front of her, she quickly stuffed the written note into Zheng Qianzhi's hand from the space.

When Zheng Qianzhi suddenly felt that there was something extra in his hand, he was a little surprised and confused.

But when he saw the contents of the note in his hand, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly stuffed the note into his sleeve.

"Zheng Qianzhi, what are you doing standing here? You're blocking my way." Huo Wan'er put her hands on her hips and looked at Zheng Qianzhi with displeasure.

Zheng Qianzhi was startled by Huo Wan'er's voice, and quickly came back to his senses, looking at Huo Wan'er with a flattering face, "Madam, I'm sorry, it was my husband who was distracted."

Huo Wan'er looked at Zheng Qianzhi's flattering expression, rolled her eyes, and then walked away arrogantly.

Zheng Qianzhi looked at Huo Wan'er's back, a trace of gloom flashed through his heart. Then he looked at Huo Xiongcai again, pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, Zheng Qianzhi took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and tiptoed to a secluded alley. Making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he took out the note from his sleeve and looked at it carefully.

The note clearly read: "What is Huo Xiongcai looking for? Let me know as soon as possible."

Zheng Qianzhi stood in the alley, gently stroking the note with his fingers, his brows furrowed, knowing in his heart that this was given to him by Lin Congyun.

But how to tell him?

Zheng Qianzhi was thinking when he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing from behind. He was startled and quickly looked back, only to see Lin Congyun standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.

"You..." Zheng Qianzhi looked at Lin Congyun in surprise, and forgot to speak for a moment.

Lin Congyun had a smile on his face, but his eyes were very cold. "What on earth is Huo Xiongcai looking for?"

Zheng Qianzhi came back to his senses and looked at Lin Congyun with a look of fear. He swallowed and asked in a trembling voice, "Old Madam, don't show up suddenly. It's scary."

"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly." Lin Congyun's eyes were stern, and Zheng Qianzhi suddenly felt a chill. He quickly told him everything he knew.

It turned out that the treasures in the secret room of the government office had been stolen, so Huo Xiong searched everywhere in a hurry.

"It was stolen?" Lin Congyun raised his eyebrows, with a look of surprise on his face, "Do you know who did it?"

Zheng Qianzhi shook his head. "I don't know. I just got the news this morning."

Lin Congyun fell into deep thought after hearing this. No wonder Huo Xiong made such a big fuss. It turned out that the treasures in the secret room of the government office were stolen.

Thinking of this, Lin Congyun curled up a smile. Fortunately, she acted quickly. It was two or three days later that she discovered that the things in the secret room had been stolen.

Zheng Qianzhi looked at Lin Congyun cautiously, and saw a hint of cunning in her smile. His heart couldn't help but "skimped". He swallowed and asked tentatively: "Madam, this... this shouldn't be done by you, right?"

Lin Congyun glanced at him and said with a smile, "What do you think?"

Zheng Qianzhi suddenly felt a chill coming over him, and he quickly shook his head, "No... No, how could you, old lady, do such a thing?"

"Heh." Lin Congyun chuckled, then patted Zheng Qianzhi on the shoulder, "Don't worry, you won't be able to find your father-in-law."

After hearing this, Zheng Qianzhi was certain that Lin Congyun really did it. He swallowed hard and looked at Lin Congyun with horror in his eyes.

Isn’t this person too bold?

You even dare to steal the secret room in the government office?

Lin Congyun looked at Zheng Qianzhi's frightened expression, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I remember you were not so timid..."

"What is Zheng Qianzhi doing alone?" Huo Wan'er walked over and saw Zheng Qianzhi standing alone in the alley with an ugly expression on his face. She looked at him unhappily.

Zheng Qianzhi quickly came back to his senses after hearing this, looked at Huo Wan'er with a flattering smile and said, "Madam, you misunderstood, I'm just thinking about something here."
