Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 251 Zhou Heng's whereabouts are leaked

Shi Qingshan was dazed by the few drinks and showered Feng Xiuyuan with compliments.

He instantly felt like he was floating on air: "No problem, Brother Feng, if you have such a kind intention, I will definitely help you with this."

Having achieved his goal, Feng Xiuyuan had a long talk with Qingshan before taking his leave.

Back at the house, Feng Xiuyuan splashed several buckets of cold water on his face.

Only then did he respectfully walk up to Chi Yanfei.

“Master, back then, Qingshan provided some information that might be useful to you.”

"Oh, tell me!"

Chi Yanfei looked at Feng Xiuyuan, who reeked of alcohol, and said with a smile.

"That Eighth Prince, bah, that is, Zhou Heng, will be coming to Andu City soon!"

"What did you say? Zhou Heng is coming..."

Upon hearing this, Chi Yanfei immediately stood up.

"Is the news true? What is the specific timing?"

Faced with Chi Yanfei's persistent questioning, Feng Xiuyuan smiled awkwardly: "Master, it will probably take another round of drinks to find out the answer."

"But don't worry, Master, the Eighth Prince's arrival will certainly be a grand affair. I'll immediately arrange for men to guard the major city gates. Once he appears..."

Before Feng Xiuyuan could finish speaking, Chi Yanfei impatiently interrupted him.

"Alright, what you do is your business. I just want the result, understand?"

"I obey my orders."

Seeing that Chi Yanfei was angry, Feng Xiuyuan quickly took his leave.

After Feng Xiuyuan left, a sinister smile suddenly appeared on Chi Yanfei's face.

"Haha, this is truly heaven's help! I'd like to see how you react when you see your loved ones die in front of you."

After saying that, he called out to the outside, "Xiao Si, come in."

Upon hearing the chirping of the red swallow inside, the young lady quickly went into the house.

"Master, you were looking for me?"

"I have received definite news that Zhou Heng will be arriving in Andu City soon. You will have to do your job. As soon as you see him, kill him on the spot."

"Ah, kill him on the spot? You don't..................."

"Just do what I'm told to do. Do I need you to teach me what to do?"

Xiao Si glanced at Chi Yanfei and was so frightened that he dared not speak.

She has been raised by Chi Yanfei since she can remember.

For so many years, she didn't know who her parents were. This Chi Yanfei, although she called him "Master" and "Young Master" on her lips.

But in her heart, he was already like her father.

Moreover, no matter how big the problem Chi Yanfei encountered or how big the mistake he made, he never got angry with himself.

But why am I so angry today?

Chi Yanfei seemed to realize his lapse in composure and reached out to pat Xiao Si's head.

"Alright, I lost my temper. Don't kill him yet, just bring him here."

"Xiao Si understands!"

Feeling the warmth of Chi Yanfei's palm, the young lady softly finished speaking and then rushed out the door.

The next day, the straightforward Shi Qingshan arrived at Mu Zheng's city lord's mansion.

"Brother Mu, it's said that the Eighth Prince is coming to Andu. Has the date been confirmed?"

As soon as Shi Qingshan met Mu Zheng, he went straight to the point and asked.

"Brother Shi, why are you concerned about the Eighth Prince today?"

"Haha, Brother Mu, as you know, my brother-in-law has a very good personal relationship with the Eighth Prince. Without the Eighth Prince, there would be no Shi Qingshan. So, since the Eighth Prince has come to Andu, as a resident of Andu, we should at least show our appreciation."

At this point, Aoyama suddenly became clever again.

Knowing that inquiring about the prince's whereabouts was a major taboo, they used the same words Feng Xiuyuan had used before.

After hearing Qingshan's explanation, Mu Zheng didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

At this point, Qingshan was no threat, but he couldn't afford to mess with his brother-in-law!

So he laughed and said, "Haha, it's rare that Brother Shi is so thoughtful, so I'll tell you."

"The Eighth Prince is tentatively scheduled to come to my city of Andu to inspect the disaster situation on the third day of next month, which is twenty days from now. You must come alone and do not let the news slip. This world is not at peace!"

"At that time, I thanked Brother Mu in advance and promised to come."

After saying that, he bid farewell to Mu Zheng and left.

No sooner had he arrived home than Feng Xiuyuan arrived at Shi Qingshan's residence with some gifts.

"Brother Shi, we didn't have enough fun yesterday, so today, I'm here to ask you for a few more drinks."

Shi Qingshan was instantly delighted when he saw Feng Xiuyuan approaching.

"Brother Feng, you've come at just the right time! I just came back from Lord Mu's place. Come, come, please have a seat!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Xiuyuan was overjoyed. Judging from Qingshan's expression, he figured the matter was settled.

So he quickly and politely sat down and placed the gifts on the table.

"Oh dear, as the saying goes, timing is everything! Brother Shi, you've done me a great favor!"

"That matter?"

While politely probing, Feng Xiuyuan pushed the gift over.

"Haha, Brother Feng, I haven't disappointed you. I found out that on the third day of next month, His Highness the Eighth Prince will come to Andu City. He will be there with City Lord Mu to check on the results of the disaster relief efforts."

Shi Qingshan laughed and revealed Zhou Heng's whereabouts without any warning.

After saying that, he instructed his servants to prepare a feast.

"Brother Feng, it's noon now, let's have a few more drinks."

"By the way, you and I, brothers, should discuss what gift we should prepare for His Highness the Eighth Prince!"

Unable to refuse, Feng Xiuyuan also moved to the table with a smile.

At this point, Qingshan was easy to handle in every way except for his drinking capacity, which was difficult to control.

Every time I come, I have to get him completely drunk.

But there was no other way; the act had to be played out completely. If he left at this moment, or if he killed Qingshan, he would be in trouble.

None of those are wise moves. If Qingshan tells Mu Zheng about it or if a murder occurs and Mu Zheng investigates, all my efforts will be in vain.

At this time, Qingshan was naive, but Mu Zheng was a seasoned veteran in officialdom and not easily fooled.

The two drank until mid-afternoon before Feng Xiuyuan, drunk, returned to Chi Yanfei's side.

"Master, we've found out that on the third day of next month, the City Lord's Mansion will be inspecting disaster relief matters together with Mu Zheng."

"Oh, the information is accurate?"

"It's absolutely true. Back then, Qingshan was innocent and still considers me his closest friend."

Chi Yanfei was overjoyed upon hearing this.

He turned to look at Feng Xiuyuan with admiration: "Well done. Continue to maintain a good relationship with Shi Qingshan and try to find out more useful information."

After saying that, he waved for Feng Xiuyuan to leave, then turned around and told Xiao Si the news.

She was instructed to give the order that all members of the church should not show their faces for the next few days, and should wait until the third day of next month.

Xiao Si understood immediately, turned around and left the room.

It was no longer appropriate to give orders to Feng Xiuyuan at this point.

So he found a deputy hall master in Andu and said, "Pass down the order: everyone, starting today, must lie in wait and await further instructions!"

Meanwhile, a few kilometers from the capital, a group of people were walking towards a mansion in the suburbs.
