Gu Shiwei's heart moved, and he wanted to look towards the caravan again, but saw that the leading lady had been lost in the crowd and was out of sight.

When the Dayong delegation arrived, Nanda Palace was already full of distinguished guests and the crowd was buzzing.

The South King Xiao Ding was quite tall, more than eight feet tall, with thick lips, a slightly fat oval face, and two mustaches. He looked like a somewhat strong and kind old man.

Only those eyes were very much like the Queen Mother in the palace, with sharp eyes that made it impossible to hide.

Yelu Yu was going to marry his youngest son named Xiao Hang. At this time, Xiao Hang went to the palace to welcome the bride and was not here.

Gu Shiwei listened to Han Shiyan's greetings with the Southern King, but his attention fell on observing everywhere. Judging from the route he took from entering to now, it was exactly the same as the map given by the Crested Ibis.

Xiao Ding has five sons in total. The eldest is as fat as a winter melon, the second is as thin as a hemp pole, the third has a pockmarked face, and the fourth has been chopped off, only two-thirds of his brothers. He also looked sallow and somewhat sickly.

What a bunch of crooked melons and jujubes!
Gu Shiwei complained in his heart, but he was secretly wary of the sickly fourth child.

This man's temples are bulging, his eyes are bright, and he can hardly hear any sound while walking. At first glance, he is a master. As soon as they came in, Gu Shiwei felt the strong fighting spirit in him.

Moreover, his palms are thick and covered with a thick layer of calluses, which should make him good at palming.

Gu Shiwei was just thinking about it when he heard her name coming from King Nan's mouth, "This should be Gu Shiwei, who is in command. I heard Yu'er say that you saved her life. I'm really grateful." Not enough."

"I have long heard that all the officials in the Great Yong Imperial City are top masters. When I saw Mr. Gu today, he was really heroic and extraordinary. We were martial arts in the Northern Dynasties, and it is not a strange thing for women to serve as officials and generals!"

"If Mr. Gu is willing, you can come to our Northern Dynasty and become a general!"

As Xiao Ding, the King of the South, said, he clapped his palms, and then a man dressed as a butler came over with the two of them carrying a small wooden box. The box was inlaid with various gems, and it looked like It is extremely gorgeous.

The butler opened the wooden box slowly and then stepped back.

"Originally, I wanted to give a horse to the hero, but Yu'er said that Master Gu already has an extremely smart horse. So I prepared some small earthen gifts to thank Master Gu for saving Yu'er's life."

Gu Shinwei looked towards the box! It was almost like a Baotu Spring was born in her heart, but the water she breathed was sour water.

Is this also called Xiaotuyi?
Looking at the old wild ginseng that looks like her long-lost grandfather, the golden cake bigger than the horse dung of the little red horse, and the big bead that can seal Wu Jiang's mouth...

She didn't expect that she would get a box of gold, silver and jewelry for nothing during this trip.

Why didn't she understand what King Nan meant? This box was what he used to cut off this life-saving grace. In the future, Gu Shiwei would not be able to use this to coerce the second princess Yelu Yu.

But what does it matter? She will leave today and will never come to this barren place again in the future. The money given by the enemy general must not be wasted! Every bit and cent here may turn into a knife cutting off the heads of Dayong soldiers in the future.

"King Nan has given me a reward. I don't care about Gu's duties, and I have no intention of repaying the favor."

Come and sign up! Come and sign up!
King Nan laughed heartily when he saw Gu Shiwei's upright face. He closed the box with a snap, waved his hand and said to the housekeeper, "Send it to Mr. Gu." Get on the carriage, please be careful and please don't delay." He said, without waiting for Shi Wei to speak again, he waved his hand, "There are many guests today, please forgive me for being rude. These sons of mine are very clumsy and have bad taste. If we don’t want Dayong’s tea, I’d better ask Mr. Liu to accompany you.”

Liu Fu curled his lips and walked out of the crowd. He looked at Han Shiyan with a resentful look.

"Yu Shi Han, I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep last night..."

Han Shiyan nodded, "Han slept very well and had no dreams all night..."

Liu Fu's eyes became even more resentful...

Han Shiyan didn't care about this and took the lead to move away and walk to the side with Liu Fu. Gu Shiwei's eyes moved, but he secretly thought that something was wrong. King Nan seemed to be generous and kind, but in fact he was very wary of them.

This Liu Fu was not here to entertain them, he was clearly here to monitor them.

She had thought before that there were not many people who knew her and Wei Changming, so they could fish in troubled waters and leave quietly. She quickly stole the imperial seal before Yeluyu made a big gift and let Wei Changming take him away quietly.

Yelu Yu was quite familiar with her, and after the ceremony was completed, he had to say a few words to her and say goodbye. This was considered normal behavior.

Therefore, they had to act before this, otherwise, after she finished speaking to Yelu Yu, there would be only time for the banquet. Everyone at the wine table has a fixed seat. If they were no longer available, it would easily arouse suspicion.

But now, not only was Liu Fu on the surface, but Xiao Ding's shorter fourth son was also staring at her with eyes that seemed to have been tempered with poison.

Gu Shiwei thought, feeling heavy in his heart.

If they continue like this, even if they pretend to leave during the day, she and Wei Changming will come back again at night. But the entrance to the secret room is on Xiao Ding's bed. He always sleeps at night. Even if they go in, they can't get out!
You can't just ignore it and overturn Xiao Ding and his bed board!

Liu Fu said that Han Shiyan could handle it, but Xiao Xiao was not easy to handle.

Just as she was thinking about it, she saw a familiar figure walking towards the shorter one. As Gu Shinwei looked at it, she felt that the crested ibis's ordinary face suddenly became extremely beautiful!

She decided that from now on Lord Crested Ibis would be nicknamed Timely Rain, a time of need!

She thought, taking advantage of the gap when the shorter one turned around to talk to the ibis, she and Wei Changming flashed together and disappeared. Immediately afterwards, where no one noticed, a girl wearing the same dress as Gu Shiwei followed Han Shiyan not far away like a ghost behind her.

Gu Shiwei didn't pause and made a one-two gesture to Wei Changming.

Wei Changming understood immediately that the crested ibis had explained to them before that the patrol formation of Nanda Palace changed every day. No one knows what patrol arrangements will be tomorrow until the second day.

He gave several different options and asked Gu Shiwei and Wei Changming to adapt accordingly.

Gu Shiwei had already observed before that today's patrol was in Formation B, which was also the most rigorous one.
