As for his best friend, the other party, who was already in the midst of a heated conversation with the beautiful lady, had completely disregarded his jealousy.

When they realized that they couldn't burn each other out of jealousy, a few well-dressed men who were leaning against the window had already passed through the crowded tavern and walked towards Shi Chen Wen's table.

He couldn't help but marvel at this era where beauties like the one beside him were not only peerlessly beautiful, but also had a beautiful scenery where they would casually stay with just a lily-tongue-in-cheek mouth.

Shi Chen Wen sat alone in the corner quietly as he watched the few popinjays being gently persuaded back by the beauty. With a face full of infatuation, he slowly walked towards his table three times.

Actually, even though Shi Chen Wen had been watching from the sidelines just now, when the woman resolved the misunderstanding between her lips, the few popinjays at Shi Chen Wen's table had even resolved their enmity and even had the intention to pick a fight with him.

"This servant's name is Xuanyu, so this is what the young masters call this one. Today, I only asked mother for half an hour, and unexpectedly met all the young masters. Next time, the young masters can come to Hibiscus to find me."

Everyone knew that there was a beauty in the fence, but they didn't know what her name was. Seeing that the beauty was about to leave and introducing herself, they were all overwhelmed and told each other her surname.

Xuan Yu lifted the coarse wine pot on the table with her slender hands. Her cardamom nail seemingly brushed past the pot's opening unintentionally. After drinking a cup of wine, she hurriedly bid farewell to the crowd and left the Undermoon Inn.

When the tall guy picked up the wine pot and poured a cup with Shi Chen Wen, his eyes followed the beautiful figure of Xuan Yu and stopped at the door for a moment.

Shi Chen Wen detected his abnormal movements, he turned and looked towards the tavern's entrance, it was empty, other than a bunch of men who were staring at the door in a daze, there was nothing else.

"What's wrong?" Shi Chen Wen patted the tall man lightly, his face full of confusion and puzzlement.

"Hmm? It's nothing, haha. "The tall man thought he was seeing things, so he didn't pursue the matter. Instead, he put on a sloppy look."

After the few of them had eaten their fill, they turned out of the Jinsi Alley, smiling and laughing as they slowly walked back to the military camp.

After Shi Chen Wen stepped into the camp, he immediately rushed to the camp's main tent. He had expected that Wei Guogong would be sitting on the table right now, as if he had already calculated the time she would come and report to him.

"What's wrong?" Wei Guogong's face was ice-cold.

Shi Chen Wen bowed slightly, and returned respectfully: "Returning Duke, there isn't anything abnormal. Besides a brothel girl, I feel that it's very strange!"

Shi Chen Wen told the Wei Guogong, who was in charge of the restaurant under the moon, everything that happened to him in detail.

Wei Guogong picked up the tea that had become cold who knows when, and drank the rest. She then slowly started to speak with a cold voice, "You send people to keep an eye on that woman, and how is the woman that you confined in the kitchen?"

As soon as Shi Chen Wen entered the army camp to report to them, before he even had the time to call over the servants to inquire about the situation, he heard the Wei Guogong suddenly mentioning, and immediately called for his servants.

"How is the woman?" The Wei Guogong casually asked the skinny youth that attacked.

The thin youth was Shi Chen Wen's personal attendant, the woman sent to monitor the kitchen, only to hear that he had not completely taken off his childish voice, and anxiously reported, "Reporting to the Duke, that woman … Today, the ring-hour have not appeared again after they went out of courtesy. "

"What?" Shi Chen Wen made a startled and furious sound before the Wei Guogong, and her deep voice couldn't help but cause the servant to instantly kneel to the ground, trembling with fear.

"If I can't even look at a woman, what's the use of having you?" Shi Chen Wen was a little furious, he stepped forward and ruthlessly kicked the youth, and immediately bent over to beg for forgiveness.

"It is this lowly general who did not properly control the situation. I beg the duke to punish this lowly general."

How could the Wei Guogong not see that Shi Chen Wen did all this for the sake of punishing his own subordinate? To the Wei Guogong, such a valiant general was indeed a loyal person.

"Now is not the time to care about right or wrong. First, send someone to monitor that brothel girl. As for her disguise as a female in the army camp, there must be some kind of unspeakable secret."

Wei Guogong's eyebrows were filled with power, Shi Chen Wen frowned.

This woman thought that disguising herself as a woman would allow her to sneak into the army camp to confuse the crowd. However, since the woman's characteristics were too obvious, he had vaguely realized it the first time he had met her.

Today was Flower Lantern Festival, the reason the Wei Guogong allowed the soldiers to enter the city and follow the customs was because according to the reports of the spies from the Wei Guogong, there were some spies from the one sob tribe who snuck into the Dreamy Cloud City, which was why they secretly sent people out to mix with the soldiers, and Shi Chen Wen was one of them.

Dreamy Cloud City, Moonlight Tavern Number One.

A person whose entire body was wrapped in a thick black cloth sat on a wooden table in front of the desk. His eyes were filled with the faint yellow glow of a candle flame, as if he was focusing all of his energy on the table lamp.

"Senior brother, things went according to plan. The Gu will devour people's hearts in three days."

A sweet and gentle female voice came from outside the door. After receiving a cold reply, the room once again fell into silence.

There seemed to be something strange wriggling in the eyes of the man sitting in front of the wooden table, but it was concealed by the dim yellow candle flame in an instant.

Life in the army camp had always been boring and boring. Today, two youths who had just joined the army sneakily took advantage of Shi Chen Wen's departure to enter the kitchen, looking for food to fill their stomach.

Ever since the kitchen man in front of him had mysteriously disappeared, the food in the barracks had become much worse.

Today, the two of them were disgusted by the specialty dish of the new chef, so they secretly poured it out.

The two of them gently pulled open the cowhide curtain in the kitchen and snuck beside the stove. Just as they were about to flip through the steamer, they saw a pair of black shriveled claws stretching out from the stove.

Out of curiosity, the two sneakily approached the stove. It was good that they didn't look at it, but when they did, they both stood on the spot in fright. Only after a moment did they realize that they had forgotten their goal.

By the time Shi Chen Wen arrived, the Wei Guogong was already in the kitchen. Other than the Wei Guogong and Shi Chen Wen, as well as their two personal guards, the rest of the people were blocked outside the kitchen.

"Duke, this is?" Shi Chen Wen walked over to Wei Guogong and looked at the shriveled up body inside the stove. Around the body was a circle of charred things, and upon closer inspection, it seemed to be the remains of some kind of insect.
