If it weren't for the few extra packets of his favorite snacks that appeared on the table from time to time, Lu Ze would really suspect that Lu Jiao had gone on a long journey.

Lu Jiao has indeed been "busy" recently, and a task like keeping an eye on people is really suitable for her!

She went up to the high building between the three major government warehouses every day, and then divided two strands of mental power to stare at Urgutu and Sergan.

Sometimes you don't even need to move for a whole day.

In the evening, he returned to the Prince's Mansion and together with Yan Yuanhao, he painted portraits of all the people that Urgutu had seen.

Of course, Yan Yuanhao was responsible for the painting and Lu Jiao for the description.

After finishing the painting, he returned to East Market and continued staring.

Lu Jiao has not treated himself badly these days.

She found time to go back to Lu's house and asked Uncle Yang to make a long list of delicious restaurants for her.

That greedy look made Uncle Yang feel so distressed.

Lu Wei is familiar with Lu Jiao's tactics, but he is not as easily fooled as Uncle Yang.

He pulled Lu Jiao aside and asked, "Why did you suddenly go to the East Market? There are many foreigners there. Did the prince ask you to go there?"

After some consideration, Lu Jiao told Lu Wei about the interests in the northwest, and also mentioned his own speculation about the war in the south.

It was also tacit permission for him to tell the news to his cheap uncle.

"I understand. I will convey your instructions to the king truthfully."

Lu Wei felt very relieved.

It had only been a short time since they left the palace when they got such important news.

It seems that following this prince is much more reliable than following the concubine in the palace.

When they first came to Jiang State, the king felt guilty towards his sister, thinking that she had left her hometown for the country and must be missing her hometown day and night and unable to sleep at night.

Later, all Lu Wei could find out were some trivial matters such as the competition for favor in the harem, or well-known news at the grand court meeting.

For ten years, no secrets were reported back, and the king felt that it was a peaceful and prosperous time where everyone could live and work in peace and contentment.

Unexpectedly, the disaster has existed for more than ten years.

Comparing the two, the difference is truly drastic!

Lu Jiao had always asked Yang Da to carry the shops on several streets.

It’s not that he didn’t want to continue reciting, or that Lu Jiao felt that three sheets of paper were enough for her, but Wu Sangui, who was in charge of writing, quit.

Lu Jiao touched his nose, thought about the words he had written like a dog paddling, and sat there without moving.

It was because Lu Wei wanted to write a letter to the king that he took on this important task.

"Brother! You see, the young master only thinks about food and drink all day long, this..."

Before Wu Sangui could finish, he was interrupted by Lu Wei: "Enough! Do you think you can interfere with the young master? Where did you get the money to buy the house? Wasn't it given by the young master?"

Wu Sangui's eyes widened: "Isn't this the silver given by the king?"

"It hadn't been two days since the silver was delivered to me before the Concubine Shu sent someone to take it away."

Wu Sangui was a little surprised for a moment, and his expression was very stiff.

He looked at Lu Jiao: "How do you have so much money?"

Lu Jiao was not afraid at all: "I got it from Qinming Cottage."

Wu Sangui's lips contracted and expanded several times, but he didn't utter another word. He turned around and walked outside.

Lu Jiao asked Lu Wei: "Are you angry out of shame?"

Lu Wei nodded: "We have been in Jiang Country for almost ten years, so it is understandable that we are a little confused for a while.

Please bear with me, sir!"

"I'm not his parents, what can I do for him?

I don't care what he says, as long as he doesn't get in my way.

By the way, please explain this to the people below.

If you see me on the street and I don't say hello to you, just pretend you don't know me.

Otherwise, if you ruin my business, I will let you try my tricks."

"Understood, sir!"

Lu Jiao understood that these words were meaningless and few people would really take them seriously.

Most people, like Wu Sangui, don't take it seriously.

With the insight of Yan Yuanhao, a reborn old fox, if they really met on the street, the acting skills of the people in Lu’s house would not be able to be concealed at all.

I just don't know if they can bear the consequences if the day really comes when Yan Yuanhao finds out all their secrets.

That is to say, Yan Yuanhao's minions are not yet sharp, which makes him appear a little passive.

If he becomes powerful and ascends the throne one day, he will definitely not tolerate such a group of people active under his nose.

Wu Sangui, who was in the way, went out, and Lu Jiao urged Uncle Yang to continue, and this time it was Lu Wei who copied it.

Lu Jiao left with a thick stack of papers, satisfied.

On one of the pieces of paper were written the addresses of the five snack shops they opened.

Except for one Southern Yunnan style noodle soup shop located in the south city, the other four are all located in the inner city.

There happened to be a beef noodle soup restaurant near Ding'anmen in Dongcheng District.

With the purpose of investigating and supporting his own small business, Lu Jiao hired a bullock cart to go there.

Who knew that when we were almost there, we actually saw Urgutu entering a restaurant not far away.

Lu Jiao followed him for a few days. He either stayed in the yard and didn't go out, or met some people with tribal faces, basically in other people's homes.

This is my first time in a restaurant.

Could it be that the Guo family is planning to discuss cooperation?

Lu Jiao remained calm and continued to follow Urgutu with his mental power. He randomly found a teahouse and sat by the window.

He ordered a pot of tea for two taels of silver, and four kinds of snacks.

In this way, even if Lu Jiao asked other families to send food, the waiter of this teahouse would not say anything.

However, there were five or six customers coming from nearby shops one after another, and the waiter in the teahouse was beginning to get a little uneasy.

He pinched the two cents of reward money that he had hidden in his sleeve, then went into the kitchen to prepare snacks.

His snacks are delicious too!

This damn desire to win!

Lu Jiao only took a bite of each of the snacks in the teahouse and didn't touch them again.

She didn't notice at all that the waiter was eagerly waiting for her praise.

Her attention was on Urgutu and Sergan.

"Fourth Prince! The Guo family is going too far!

You left us alone for three days, and now the agreed time has passed, but no one has come yet!"

Urgutu was much calmer than Bisergan. He thought it was boring to drink from a wine jug, so he directly asked the waiter to bring four jars of wine.

He drank another bowl of wine and glanced at Sergan.

"You're so loud, are you afraid that people outside can't hear you?"

Sergan touched his nose.

Although I knew that people outside or next door could not hear it, I still felt a little guilty.

Urgutu squinted his eyes and glanced at the door again, but there was no sign of anyone coming outside.

"They're leaving us hanging, so we just need to slack off a bit when we're looking for someone.

It’s not like we’re in a hurry to find Tong Renjie.”

Sergan's eyes lit up: "That's true!"

After being persuaded by Urgutu, he was no longer in a hurry.

He asked the waiter to bring six more jars of good wine, sat down next to Urgutu and started drinking too.

Lu Jiao opened a package of braised beef and ate it with tea.

Just seeing everyone over there drinking, I couldn't help but feel that something was missing.

She thought of the pollen in the vial and couldn't help but add some more ingredients to them.
