Chapter 331 Big Plan

Blind Tang stretched out his rough and calloused hands, took the teacup steadily, and drank the tea in the cup without hesitation, as if it was not an ordinary cup of tea, but a sweet rain that could quench his thirst.

However, after drinking it in one gulp, he still seemed to feel it was not satisfying enough, and a trace of desire remained in his throat.

Ru Yue, who was sitting next to him, looked at Blind Tang quietly without urging him.

She knew very well that things had developed to this point and that no major changes would occur in the short term. Therefore, she chose to wait patiently and give Blind Tang enough time to calm down.

Blind Tang drank three large cups of tea in succession, finishing each one as quickly as a cow.

Finally, as the last drop of tea slid into his throat, his tense nerves gradually relaxed and his emotions slowly returned to calm.

He gently put down the teacup in his hand, wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and then slightly straightened his slightly messy hair and face. With a bit of apology, he said to Ru Yue: "I am really sorry to have embarrassed you, young lady!"

Hearing Blind Tang's words, Ru Yue smiled slightly and responded softly, "Sir, you are too kind. I believe something extremely serious must have happened. Otherwise, with your usual calm demeanor, you would never have lost your composure like this. Could you please tell me exactly what happened?"

Blind Tang nodded slightly, first looked at Ru Yue in front of him thoughtfully, and then looked around the courtyard vigilantly.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual around him, he turned and waved to Tietou and Aji, who were standing not far away, and whispered, "You two, be smart and keep a close eye on everything going on in front of and behind the house. Don't let anyone take advantage of the situation and ruin our plans."

After the two of them took the order and left, Blind Tang turned around again and lowered his voice to tell Ru Yue in detail about the specific situation outside.

turn out to be--

Ever since Ru Yue and others left the capital, a large number of all kinds of strange people suddenly poured into the capital.

At the beginning, Blind Tang did not take this too seriously and simply regarded these people as ordinary passers-by.

Although the imperial court had always been strict with those chivalrous men who violated the law by force, it had never explicitly issued a ban to prevent them from entering the capital. Therefore, "Chasing the Wind" initially paid no attention to these new faces.

That day, Blind Tang was drinking tea and exploring the surroundings in Qinxiang Garden when he accidentally discovered that several gangsters armed with swords were arguing with others. This was a very common occurrence that often happened on the busy streets of Beijing.

However, as the conflict between the two sides intensified, Blind Tang keenly noticed something amiss - the moves these people used were not the common moves in the martial arts world, but standard military fighting techniques!

What is even more shocking is that judging from the ruthlessness of their attacks and the skill and experience of their movements, it is obvious that they are people who have experienced life-and-death battles and have blood on their hands.

Blind Tang thought to himself that something was wrong and realized that this matter was by no means simple.

At this moment, he knew that he had to act cautiously and must not act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy.

However, what made it difficult for him was that Ru Yue was not in the capital at the moment, so he could not go directly to Marquis Wu'an or the Emperor of Chu to inquire about the court's views and attitude towards the matter.

After careful consideration, Blind Tang decided to ask for help from Divine Doctor Shen first, hoping that he could pass on the message to Master Qin through him and understand the situation.

But what he never expected was that when he arrived at Qin Taifu's mansion, he found that it had already been secretly controlled by unidentified people, and it was almost impossible to get close to it.

In desperation, he knew he had no other choice but to take a gamble and take a risk. On a dark and windy night, he quietly sneaked into the heavily guarded palace.

After he successfully sneaked in, he was shocked to find that Marquis Wu'an was also trapped in the palace!

However, this would make it easier for him to protect the Emperor at a closer distance.

You should know that inside this palace, there is a guard every three steps and a sentry every five steps, and the defense is extremely tight.

Fortunately, however, Blind Tang possesses extraordinary lightness skills. Even in such a dangerous environment, he can still move around like a fish in water and successfully find out a lot of important information that is unknown to others.

Emperor Mingde was extremely partial to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and this favoritism had long caused extreme dissatisfaction among the Second Prince.

The second prince secretly colluded with the lineage of Duke Ningguo, and through them won over the General Zhenxi who guarded the western border.

The purpose is obvious. If there is no hope of ascending the throne through normal means, then he plans to use the powerful military force of the Zhenxi Army to realize his ambition of ascending the throne.

Previously, the Second Prince had intended to exploit the unusual phenomenon in Jiangning County to suppress the Crown Prince, hoping to force His Majesty to depose him. This would allow the Second Prince to ascend to the throne and become the new Emperor.

But who could have predicted that His Majesty would defend the Crown Prince with all his might, remaining unmoved. This incident made the Second Prince and his followers realize that the path to the throne was becoming increasingly difficult, and their hopes were becoming increasingly slim.

Therefore, they decided to take a risk and ordered the Zhenxi Army to disguise themselves quietly, sneak into the capital, and wait for an opportunity to act.

The palace was now in a state of tension, tightly controlled by Duke Ningguo and the Imperial Guards. They were waiting to capture the Crown Prince, and would immediately launch an operation, collaborating internally and externally, using force to coerce Emperor Mingde into passing the throne to the Second Prince.

"Miss, after going through untold hardships, I finally succeeded in contacting Marquis Wu'an! This is the letter he asked me to pass on to you and Lord Chu." As Blind Tang spoke, he carefully took out the letter from the inside of his lapel and handed it to Ru Yue respectfully.

Ru Yue took the envelope with a serious expression, quickly opened it and briefly glanced at the contents.

She frowned slightly, as if she was quite worried about some of the information in the letter, but then she put the note into her sleeve pocket without hesitation.

She raised her head, looked at Blind Tang with a sharp gaze, and asked, "Where did you go just now? Why did you look so panicked when you returned?"

Faced with Ru Yue's questioning, Blind Tang couldn't help but feel a little panicked. He hurriedly bowed and replied, "I was just outside, gathering information, and I didn't expect to hear such shocking news—the Second Prince is afraid of changes, and the longer the night, the more trouble he has. I heard that whether or not he can successfully capture the Crown Prince in three days, he will forcibly start a rebellion and ascend the throne!"

Hearing this, Ru Yue's heart sank.

There are only three short days left, and the situation has developed so urgently that it is really caught off guard!

Ru Yue frowned tightly, thinking to herself that this matter was really extraordinary and could not be easily resolved by her alone.

There is no doubt that Chu Ning'an must discuss carefully with the prince before making the final decision.

She quickly called over Ah Ji and solemnly instructed him, "Ah Ji, quickly convey to my brother-in-law exactly what Mr. Tang said. Also, be sure to give the letter that Marquis Wu'an asked Blind Tang to pass on to Chu Ning'an to him. Remember that?"

Ah Ji nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry, sister! I promise to convey these words to my brother-in-law."

He took the letter carefully, turned around and left quickly.

After Aji left, Ru Yue breathed a sigh of relief, but her expression remained solemn.

She turned to look at Blind Tang and asked, "Sir, would it be convenient for you to take me to the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion tonight?"

When Blind Tang heard this, he immediately understood what Ru Yue meant. It was obviously impossible for her to walk into the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion in a swaggering and dignified manner.

Knowing that this matter could not be delayed, Blind Tang nodded without hesitation and replied, "Please rest assured, young lady. I, Blind Tang, will do my best to protect your safety and ensure that you can go back and forth smoothly."
