Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

A group of people appeared on the streets of Sea City. The leader was Zhang Jinglin He led dozens of elite soldiers disguised as escorts. Each of them led a horse with goods on the backs of the horses. They deliberately restrained their aura and looked like ordinary escorts.

Su Qing’s eyes flashed when she saw that it was Zhang Jinglin. They came at the right time.

Zhang Jinglin stopped when he saw the relay station. He guessed that if the Empress came, she would stay at the relay station, so he went straight to the relay station.

The shopkeeper’s eyes were regretful when he saw such a big business.

Unfortunately, his shop was already full.

Zhang Jinglin saw Zhong Yong the moment he entered the door. It was hard for

a big guy like him not to notice him.

Zhang Jinglin’s gaze fell on the old man that Su Qing was pretending to be. His belly was so big that it must be the Empress’s makeup. After confirming that the Empress was staying in the shop, Zhang Jinglin retracted his gaze and cupped his hands at the shopkeeper.

“Shopkeeper, do you have a room?”

“No, but if you don’t mind, there are still two rooms in the backyard for storing sundries. I can clean them up for you to live in.”

The shopkeeper could not bear to part with this big business, so he probed

Zhang Jinglin.

“Alright, thank you, shopkeeper.”

Zhang Jinglin pretended to hesitate for a moment before reluctantly agreeing. However, the shopkeeper was overjoyed. He began to ask the waiter to clean up the rooms in the backyard, only to realize that the waiter was missing.

“Liange Chengshi? Liange Chengshi?”

The shopkeeper shouted the name of the waiter loudly. After shouting for a long time, no one came over. He cursed angrily,

“Where did he go? I’m so angry.”

“Sir, please come in and rest first. I’ll go and clean up for you.”

The shopkeeper was afraid that Zhang Jinglin would get impatient, so he coaxed him into the house first. He then ran to the backyard to tidy up the room.

Only Su Qing and Zhang Jinglin were left in the shop. Zhang Jinglin cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Su Qing.

“Hello, sir.”

Su Qing was delighted with Zhang Jinglin’s wit. She nodded and ordered Zhang

Jinglin in a low voice,

Zhang Jinglin listened attentively. Knowing how many people the Empress wanted, he immediately waved to the people outside.

He knew the Empress’s temper. Even the Emperor could not change her decision. He could only listen to her orders, but he could not let the Empress do dangerous things. Zhang Jinglin mustered his courage and advised Su Qing, “Niangniang, the few of us can go. You should stay here and guard!

“If I go with you, all of you will come back alive.

Su Qing only said one sentence. Zhang Jinglin wanted to persuade her again, but Su Qing gave him a cold glance. Zhang Jinglin was so scared that he dared not say anything else.

Although the Empress’ plan was risky, it was a good idea.

“Teach them some common terminologies now.

Su Qing gave Zhang Jinglin an order and quickly changed their appearance. There was no need to change their clothes deliberately. Previously, the thin man and others wore ordinary people’s clothes. They just needed to change their faces a little.

After Su Qing finished putting on makeup for Zhang Jinglin and the others, she asked him to stay in the room and teach them the Japanese language.

After confirming that no one was outside, she returned to her room. Not long after, she heard the shopkeeper scolding the waiter,

“Damn it, where did he go?”

Su Qing also felt that it was a little strange. Why hadn’t the shop assistant returned after leaving for ten minutes? Not only did he not return, but his bodyguard, Little Ding, did not return either. Could something have happened, just as she was feeling suspicious, she saw the shopkeeper walking upstairs. Su Qing’s eyes turned cold. She definitely couldn’t let the shopkeeper go upstairs.

Su Qing went over to stop the shopkeeper,

“Shopkeeper, I just remembered something.”

The shopkeeper was already on his way upstairs when he heard Su Qing calling him.

“Sir, what is it?”

“Are you looking for your partner?

Su Qing asked in return. The shopkeeper nodded.

“Yes, have you seen him?”

■’I saw him when I woke up early. He was walking out in a panic. He didn’t even hear me when I called him.”

Su Qing told him about the waiter leaving in the morning. She wasn’t lying. It was the truth. The waiter opened the door and ran away.

“Where did he go?”

The shopkeeper frowned and thought. Suddenly, he ran to the counter and took out the key to open the drawer’s lock. When he saw that the money was still inside, he sighed in relief.

“I don’t know. Shopkeeper, help me buy some food and send it into the house.” Su Qing took out two taels of silver and placed them on the counter.

‘TH help you look after the shop.”

“This... Alright then.”

The innkeeper wanted to refuse, but he was unwilling to give up the money. He wanted to wait for the waiter to come back and send him, but he was afraid that the customer would not be able to wait and go out to eat like before. He had to get the money first.

“Come out!”

As soon as the shopkeeper left, Su Qing ordered in a low voice..
