I Have Awakened The Deduction System

Chapter 206 206, We're All Actors

He Chuan and Cai Lian naturally didn't greet Wei Qiancheng and pretended not to know each other.

"Our family is in this Yangzhou City. The He family was originally a large family, but later, Young Master's family fell into a sorrowful state," Cai Lian told a story to Lia with a serious face.

Anyway, they did buy a house in Yangzhou City. As for their past, Lia did not have the ability to investigate.

It was mainly to let the First Prince and the Eldest Princess let down their guard.

The group arrived at the courier station where they were staying at.

"My honored guests from the grasslands, please rest for a while. I will welcome you tonight. If you planned to wander around Yangzhou, please follow the rules. After all, the Great Zhou is ruled by law!" Wei Qiancheng said a few polite words and then left. He still had to send a letter to the Imperial Court.

"Big Sister, Cai Lian and I are going to go shopping. Do you want to come with us?" Lia had long been unable to suppress her inner desires and was prepared to take a stroll around.

If even Yangzhou City was so beautiful, then how prosperous would the capital city be?

"You can go with Miss Cai Lian. I'm going back to rest." The Eldest Princess said with a smile.

She had other things to discuss.

Lia nodded her head and went out to play with Cai Lian.

He Chuan, on the other hand, held his books and returned to his room to rest indifferently.

Wei Qiancheng had just returned to his study to write a secret memorial when he found He Chuan sitting in a chair waiting for him.

"Greetings, Duke He!" Wei Qiancheng was not surprised at all and quickly said,

"There are at least three saint cultivators in the Xiongnu group. Inform the capital to be prepared. There is no need to send experts to monitor them, just put on a good show." He Chuan nodded, not surprised by his new identity.

Empress Changning was already pregnant with his child, and the identity of a eunuch was no longer suitable for him.

But He Chuan neither about the title Duke or Eunuch, and he remained the same.

It made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.

"Three saint cultivators!" Wei Qiancheng was shocked, but then he remembered that Jue Lengxin had died at He Chuan's hands, and the stone in his heart gradually fell. It would be useless to send a half-step saint cultivator to monitor an expert of this level.

He just needed to send people to monitor them and not let the Xiongnu people become suspicious.

If they didn't send anyone, the other party would instead suspect that they had a plan.

Or perhaps they thought that their actions had been exposed.

"I understand!" Wei Qiancheng said.

When he raised his head, He Chuan had already disappeared.

He was already used to experts who came and went without a trace, so he immediately wrote He Chuan's instructions into the secret memorial.

...

Cai Lian brought Lia to the small courtyard where they had once lived.

The yard was already overgrown with weeds, but the house was well maintained, except for the dust.

Cai Lian looked around with a nostalgic look, her sleeves fluttering as dust and weeds fell together.

"So Sister Cai Lian and Master used to live here, then why did they come to a place like the grasslands?" Lia asked, pretending not to care.

In fact, she also wanted to probe Cai Lian's intentions.

In her opinion, Cai Lian was more honest and kinder, and would not lie.

"After Young Master was successful in his study of cultivation, he felt that we shouldn't limit our vision to the Central Plains. You should travel everywhere. It just so happened that a White Lotus Society from the outer realms entered the Central Plains and was destroyed by a mysterious master. That's why we started looking for traces of the White Lotus Society to see if we could find anything." Under He Chuan's tutelage, Cai Lian wasn't just a kind-hearted palace maid.

She was actually very clear about the Sixth Princess's plans, but she pretended not to know.

Therefore, there were some truths and some lies in her words, and could not be considered a lie.

The two of them looked around, and Lia had a better understanding of He Chuan and Cai Lian's identities.

Her wariness was also gradually lowered.

"Let's go! I'll bring Little Sister Lia out for some good food!" Seeing that the fire was about ready, Cai Lian prepared to do the most important thing, which was to eat delicious food.

Lia was also looking forward to it.

Cai Lian didn't go to a luxurious restaurant.

Instead, she went straight to the first street snack.

The sanding bun was a famous traditional food in Yangzhou. It was said to have originated during the era of the First Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty when master ding of Yangzhou had made breakfast for him.

It was a bun made with sea cucumber, chicken, meat, winter bamboo shoots, and shrimp as the filling. Later, in consideration of the consumption level of the civilians, the sea cucumber and shrimp were removed, and the three-piece bun was now made.

Of course, if you had the money, you could also eat the luxury version of a sanding steamed bun.

Of course, the two of them were not short of money, so they bought two luxury versions to try.

The bun was fresh, fragrant, crisp, and tender, fat but not greasy.

"It's so delicious. Unfortunately, it's a little small. I haven't had enough yet!" Lia swallowed the last bite of the bun reluctantly.

The cuisines of the central plains truly lived up to their reputation. They were much more delicious than roasted meat.

"Sister Lia, you're so stupid. How could there only be one type of Yangzhou snack? You have to save your stomach for other snacks!" Cai Lian had already finished the bun in her hand, and she was already thinking about a delicious dish.

Only then did Lia realize that she was completely addicted to the food.

The Yangzhou spring roll was a famous local traditional snack, and it was said that it evolved from the spring cake.

It was usually long and stuffed with pork, bamboo shoots, leeks, black fungus, winter mushrooms, and carrots. It tasted fresh, salty, and delicious.

Thousand-layer fried cake, Yangzhou soup dumplings, Huangqiao shaobing, and finally, half a salted goose each.

Lia was lying on the chair, rubbing her round belly. She really could not eat anymore.

"I regret not coming here earlier. If only I could eat so much delicious food every day!" Lia's pretty face was filled with happiness.

It was simply too delicious.

She even wanted to stay in Yangzhou for a few more days.

"We'll be able to eat a lot of delicious food on our way to the capital." Cai Lian also said while rubbing her belly.

At the same time.

The First Prince was looking at a map in his room.

"The Imperial Advisor has marked quite a few places. There's one in Yangzhou. You should go and check it out during the banquet. Don't be discovered." The First Prince was also very curious about what kind of treasure could make the Imperial Advisor so solemn.

"The people monitoring the relay station are at most at the sixth-stage Xiantian. They can't detect my whereabouts." The black-robed expert said confidently.

"Hmph! The Great Zhou Dynasty had nothing better to do than to hold a Martial Arts Conference, so their plan to harm this King had to be changed. I think we should be worried about that b*tch next to us, their goal is the same as ours!" The First Prince wasn't afraid of the people here. They weren't even half-step saint cultivators, so they posed no threat.

The main thing was that the Eldest Princess also had saint cultivators following her, and they were all after the treasure. There would definitely be a fight between them.

The black-robed expert didn't say anything this time. There were strong and weak saint cultivators as well, and he didn't know the strength of the saint cultivators around the Eldest Princess.

Therefore, he didn't dare to comment further.

"But you don't have to worry too much. This King has especially left a way to deal with that cheap woman. You just have to act according to the plan tonight." The First Prince put away the map, a sinister smile on his face.

If the Eldest Princess obediently gave him the thing, then it would be good. If she dared to snatch it, then don't blame him for being ruthless!
