Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

Song Zhi and Xie Ting looked at each other, and silently followed the two men's steps without any prior agreement.

Perhaps it was because Song Zhi had not asked anyone to take care of them during this period, so the people were not very vigilant. Even if they found that they were following them, they would at most think that they were just passing by.

After following them through many twists and turns, we finally arrived at a remote alley.

Song Zhi whispered, "Didn't you say you knew everything about this place? How about this place? Are you familiar with it?"

Xie Ting looked around in confusion and said truthfully, "Well, I'm not very familiar with her."

It seems that this alley was specially chosen by Mr. Hu. If they hadn't followed those two people, they would never have found this place.

Since the other party was so vigilant, Song Zhi did not show up directly, but carefully approached with Xie Ting in the darkness at the base of the wall.

After turning the corner, a back door of a courtyard with a red lantern hanging on it came into view.

Because it was pitch black all the way, the sudden appearance of the red lanterns was particularly eye-catching and prominent.

Song Zhi whispered, "This should be the place. Go around and climb over the wall to get in."

Xie Ting nodded.

The two of them moved quickly and entered the yard as planned.

There was nothing special about this yard, it was just an ordinary family's backyard, but after walking a few steps forward, they saw something unusual.

Ordinary families usually divide their houses into many rooms to facilitate multiple people living in them.

But the house in this yard only has one large connected room and only one door for entry and exit.

There were even a few burly men guarding the door who looked very good at martial arts.

Everyone who wants to enter must show their identity before being allowed in. It is very strict.

Xie Ting hid behind a large water tank and sighed, "I'm afraid this is to protect us."

Song Zhi also thought so, "How about you pretend to be a commoner and go up to test it out?"

Looking at those burly men, Xie Ting swallowed his saliva and said righteously, "I think this is inappropriate. If we're not careful, we'll alert the enemy. It's safer for us to observe together in secret."

Song Zhi looked at him with disdain, "Why don't you just say you're a coward."

Xie Ting said confidently, "Being cowardly is just one side of the story."

"What about the other side?"

"I am mainly concerned about your safety."

Xie Ting spoke sincerely, "Think about it. If I'm caught and beaten to death, it doesn't matter. But what will you do if you're left here alone? If I'm discovered, they'll definitely search everywhere. If they catch you, it will be like severing the lifeblood of the entire Phoenix Nation! The Phoenix Nation can't live without you, just like a fish can't live without water, or a bird can't live without wings!"

Song Zhi: “…”

In the end, neither of them went forward, but just went around to the side and tried to check the situation inside from the window.

Fortunately, there was no one guarding the window, and the two of them successfully sat under the window.

There was a lot of noise inside, and low voices could be heard. It was obvious that some people had arrived.

After making preparations, Song Zhicai held his breath and slowly stuck his head out.

Through the gap in the window, Song Zhi could clearly see the scene inside.

There was indeed a large space inside, with countless small stools placed facing away from them, and many people were already sitting there with their backs to them.

Under the wall facing them, there was a slightly higher platform with a table and a chair on it, and a gavel on the table.

There was no one up there, so it was obviously where Mr. Hu was telling stories.

Song Zhi had a vague suspicion in his mind and whispered, "Xie Ting, go back and inform Aunt Xin. Tell her to bring the guards to surround this place as quickly as possible and not let anyone escape."

Xie Ting was surprised and said, "Leaving you here alone? How can I feel at ease?"

"Go quickly, Moji, this is an order."

"OK then."

Xie Ting obeyed the order absolutely, so he didn't say anything else and retreated into the darkness.

As soon as Xie Ting left, Song Zhi turned his attention back to the house.

The furnishings here are not new, and it doesn't look like they were just made recently.

Among the people sitting inside, there were not only ordinary people, but also some people who were obviously spies.

Their eyes were full of calculations, and from time to time they would lower their heads and whisper gloomily.

Gradually, more and more people came here, and soon the small benches were filled up.

So those who came later could only stand by.

After a while, the standing space was almost full. From Song Zhi's position, he could just see the backs of the heads that were densely packed together.

Song Zhi was worried about being discovered, so he simply hid under the window and stopped looking out.

After waiting for a while, the legendary Mr. Hu finally appeared.

Song Zhi heard a burst of excited shouts and quickly squatted down again to look inside. However, because there were too many people standing there, he had to change positions several times before he could see Mr. Hu's true face through the gap.

Song Zhi's heart skipped a beat; it turned out to be an acquaintance.

Who else could that fat head, big ears, round and smooth face be but Lord Zhang who has long been "incompetent"?

Song Zhi smiled, so sometimes the world is really small and really magical.

Mr. Zhang's full name is Zhang Liu. He used to be an ally of theirs, but unexpectedly, he went back to help Mu Yuanzhi and slandered her.

She had asked about this Lord Zhang when she was in Lecheng before. Li Yan said that they didn't find him at all when they left. The situation was very urgent at the time. If they had delayed for too long, they might not have been able to leave.

There was no choice, Li Yan and the others had to leave a letter and leave.

Later they arrived in Lecheng safely and kept trying to contact him, but they never succeeded.

At this moment, Zhang Liu actually appeared here.

He also gave himself a nickname called "Mr. Hu".

Song Zhi pursed his lips and waited quietly for what was to come.

Zhang Liu was helped to sit on a chair. He looked at the empty room and showed a satisfied expression.

Then he cleared his throat to quiet everyone down.

After the room was silent, he slowly began to speak, "Last time, we talked about how the Empress of the Phoenix Kingdom rebelled against the Tian Gang and used all means to become emperor. Not only did she seduce the Third Prince, Mu Nanqi, and make him fall in love with her, doing countless evil things, she also killed countless loyal ministers and generals, and even assassinated the late emperor in an attempt to usurp the throne. Now, let's continue with the sequel."

Zhang Liu's voice came out clearly, and Song Zhi was stunned listening outside the window.

She asked why Zhang Liu gave himself the nickname "Mr. Hu", because it sounded like nonsense.

Sure enough, she had to admit that these people dared to make up all kinds of nonsense.

If she hadn't heard this today, she wouldn't have known she had done so many things.
