I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

"Big? I don't think it's big enough." Jiang Yuan sneered.

After Zhao Kai looked around, he whispered, "When do we set out? It's still dark, and we're only about two hundred miles away from the imperial capital. With these truth grenades, we should be there by midnight."

"But we have to find a way to prevent these boatmen from getting suspicious."

Jiang Yuan nodded. "That's right. If we succeed, someone will definitely come to investigate. These boatmen must be dealt with properly."

"But I already have a plan. You can just act according to the situation later."

After saying that, Jiang Yuan walked straight to the bow and said softly, "Brother, I'm busy."

"Sir, what's the matter?" The captain put down what he was busy doing and looked at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan pointed to the overcast sky and said, "Nothing, I just heard that big fish are more likely to be caught on cloudy days, so I wanted to borrow a fishing rod from you."

"Oh, it's a piece of cake. Sir, please wait a moment, I'll get it right away." The captain said, turned and walked into the lower cabin, and soon returned with a fishing rod and some fishing tools.

"Sir, there's corn in here for making nests, and there are earthworms in the soil. If it's not enough, come to me for more."

Jiang Yuan took the fishing rod and looked around, then casually said, "Brother, I'm afraid there won't be any big fish if you fish on a big boat. I remember you guys also towed a small boat, right? Can you lend it to me?"

"I can give you a deposit, and it won't be damaged."

The captain was stunned for a moment, then whispered, "Sir, it's no problem to lend it to you, but we are short of people on board, and we can't spare anyone to go with you."

"That's okay, he can drive a boat." Jiang Yuan said, winking at Zhao Kai.

"Oh yes, I can drive a boat. You don't need to send anyone to follow me. The two of us can do it." Zhao Kai said quickly.

The captain looked Zhao Kai up and down for a few times, then nodded happily. "In that case, then I'll do as you say. However, please don't go too far. The winds on the Qianlong River are strong and the waves are high, plus it's going to rain today. Just stay around here."

"Okay, thanks, bro."

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the cabin with Zhao Kai, and kicked Mu Cangtian, who was dozing off with a sword in his arms, to wake him up.

"What are you doing?" Mu Cangtian shouted, rubbing his eyes.

Jiang Yuan glanced at him angrily: "Don't fucking sleep, ever since you followed us, you've been eating for free all day..."

"I'm not an idiot!" Before Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Mu Cangtian stood up and retorted loudly.

"Okay, okay, you won't eat for free. I have something for you to do now." Jiang Yuan said with a smile.

Mu Cangtian put his sword back on his back and looked at Jiang Yuan with a serious face: "Tell me, who do you want me to kill?"

Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes immediately and said, "Even if you dare to go, I wouldn't let you go."

To put it bluntly, a killer like you will bring bad luck to anyone who comes looking for you.

"Zhao Kai and I are going out fishing. We probably won't be back until tomorrow. In the meantime, please take good care of Wang Gang."

"Cook a piece of beef for him at a fixed time every day, cut it into powder, mix it with fresh deer blood and feed it to him. He hasn't woken up yet, so feed him slowly."

"Also, use your true Qi to help him open up some acupuncture points tonight. Then listen to Gao Yan. If she asks you to do anything, you have to do it. Do you understand?"

Jiang Yuan explained a lot, and Mu Cangtian immediately wilted: "You're asking me, the assassin king of ten years from now, to do something like this. Isn't that a waste of my talent?"

"Stop talking nonsense, just do what I tell you to do. Also, don't peek at my wife!" Zhao Kai threatened viciously.

Mu Cangtian glared at Zhao Kai angrily: "I want to travel the world with my sword, how can I let love hinder me?"

"What a little brat."

Zhao Kai shook his head and concluded that everyone was once a young man who dreamed of traveling the world with a sword.

Walking into the room where Jiang Yuan was, Zhao Kai was carrying a basket full of truth grenades, and Jiang Yuan was doing the same. All of them were wrapped in moisture-proof oil paper with some food on top to cover up their tracks.

"Young Master, how long do you plan to fish?" The man at the bow looked at the frame behind the two men and opened his mouth in surprise.

"It won't be long, just one night. Bring some food and a raincoat. It's going to rain." Jiang Yuan had already thought of an excuse and fooled the boatman away naturally.

After getting on the small boat, Jiang Yuan immediately cast out the fishing rod, while Zhao Kai controlled the small boat to gradually move away from the big ship.

After the two pretended to fish for a while, the sky had completely darkened. Zhao Kai immediately drove the boat directly to the shore.

After reaching the shore, they tied the boat rope to a big tree, and the two of them carried two backpacks and headed non-stop to the nearest village.

It is not difficult to run all the way there, but it is not easy to have the energy to escape after taking revenge. You should save your energy if you can.

They bought two horses from the village at a high price, and the two of them immediately mounted their horses and galloped away.

The truth grenades behind him have been separated one by one by Jiang Yuan. As long as the fuse is not ignited, they will never explode.

The two of them galloped all the way, and two hours later, they finally saw the imperial capital in the distance.

After tying up the horses in a small wood, the two men thought for a while and realized that the imperial capital was indeed the imperial capital. The city walls were heavily guarded and there was no loophole to exploit.

"It's a bit troublesome. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get in without going through the city gate." Zhao Kai said in a low voice.

After thinking about it carefully for a while, Jiang Yuan was at a loss. It was impossible to climb over the city wall, and going through the main gate would expose his identity. This was indeed a difficult problem.

The two men squatted outside for a long time, but still had no good ideas. Just when they were about to bite the bullet and sneak into the caravan to see if they could get in, a treacherous voice sounded behind them.

"You two, do you want to sneak in?"

Jiang Yuan turned around suddenly and saw a fat man standing behind them, squinting his eyes and looking at them.

Zhao Kai stood up, his hands naturally reaching for the long sword at his waist: "What are you talking about? We are decent people, why would we sneak in? But you, I see you have shifty eyes, you are not a good person at first glance."

"Hey, you two, don't be in a hurry. I can take you in." The fat man said quickly.

Jiang Yuan and Zhao Kai looked at each other and decided to wait and see.

"Come on, how can you take us in?" Jiang Yuan said lightly.

The fat man smiled knowingly and said, "Little guys, how could I not know what you are thinking? I can tell at a glance whether you want to sneak in."

"It's an underground tunnel. Don't ask too many questions. If you want to go in, I'll take you in for one hundred taels of silver each." The fat man whispered.

Jiang Yuan immediately handed over two silver notes with a face value of 100 taels. After the fat man took them, he looked around and waved to the two of them.

"follow me."

They followed the fat man all the way to an abandoned teahouse outside the imperial capital. The three of them went straight to the basement. The fat man moved the large water tank in front of him with great effort, and a dark hole immediately appeared in front of them.

"Jump down from here and keep walking. You can reach the imperial capital in half an hour."

"Oh my god, it goes straight to the imperial capital, what a huge project!" Zhao Kai exclaimed and was about to jump in.

Jiang Yuan grabbed Zhao Kai and looked at the fat man: "Why don't you come with us?"

The fat man's expression changed: "You, what do you mean?"
