【Part 139】Flint
Cao Yi'er and Ji Shuikun went to the Forbidden City during the day to make a thorough plan. At this point, Ji Shuikun had a good idea of how the entire plan would be implemented. The two took Wu Yixin to discuss it in a private room of the tea house.
Cao Yi'er reminded a few key points: "The fence is no longer a problem now. We will break the fence the day after tomorrow so that you can go in at night. The trouble now is that after you enter, you have to go straight to the Qianqing Palace. In case the emperor is not here. If it’s the Qing Palace, but it’s in the Wuying Palace or the Dashan Palace, it’s going to be bad.”
Jishuikun said disapprovingly: "No, the Dashan Palace is on the edge of the Neitongzi River. I can swim not far along the river and reach the Dashan Palace. If I want to go to the Qianqing Palace, I have to pass through the West Sixth Palace. Judging from the map, there are hundreds of houses, and the concubines in the west are all there. There are so many people, and it is even more dangerous."
Wu Yixin listened to the discussion between the two people, and she also felt that the Dashan Palace was a good place to start.
At this time, Yu Yilian and Nie Xiaoxiao happened to come back. Passing by the lobby, Wu Yixin saw them coming back and called out to them.
Nie Xiaoxiao was called out, and when she thought of the trouble she had just caused, her simple nature immediately turned red. Yu Yilian thought it was nothing, and replied openly: "What does Sister Yixin want from us?"
Yu Yilian is a good person, but Wu Yixin is also exquisite and clear, and she immediately felt that Nie Xiaoxiao looked wrong.
Wu Yixin asked Nie Xiaoxiao: "Xiao Xiao, where have you been?"
Nie Xiaoxiao was not good at lying and hesitated immediately. Yu Yilian quickly answered for her: "Sister, we went to see the night view of the Qinhuai River and had something to eat. We came back late. We walked too much today and were too tired. Now. We have to wash up and go to bed early. Sister, you should also rest early, don’t make yourselves too busy." After saying that, he half pushed and half let Nie Xiaoxiao go away.
Wu Yixin looked at the two people's backs and sighed: "There must be something wrong with these two people. I don't know what trouble they got into. Xiaolian is like Xi Shi's rebirth or Diao Chan's reincarnation. Wherever she goes, men follow her like flies."
Ji Shuikun echoed: "It's true. Xiaolian is so beautiful and charming."
"No, I don't think so. I think Sister Yixin is more beautiful." Cao Yi'er said coldly.
"Don't talk nonsense." Wu Yixin glared at Cao Yi'er.
Ji Shuikun looked up at Cao Yi'er, then at Wu Yixin, and found that the two seemed to be... flirting.
He shook his head in disbelief, wishing he hadn't heard this part.
Cao Yi'er thought that he seemed to have spoken too quickly, and said sheepishly, "Let's continue talking later."
Ji Shuikun shook his head and continued to ask: "Why didn't you choose the Great Good Hall or the Wuying Hall?"
"If Zhu Di is in the Dashan Hall or Wuying Hall, then he is working, and who is most likely to be serving him?"
Ji Shuikun suddenly realized that if he met Yao Guangxiao in these two halls, he would have a high chance. Yao Guangxiao possesses the unique skills of two major martial arts schools. Whether it is Shaolin Boy Kung Fu or Yu Gu Liang Yi Kung, he has reached the state of perfection, so it is best not to encounter him.
Wu Yixin said: "Yes, if you meet Yao Guangxiao, I would rather you give up the mission, protect yourself wisely, and retreat first. Leave the green mountains without worrying about having no firewood."
Ji Shuikun also felt that he might not be able to defeat Yao Guangxiao. It is said that he is the number one person in the martial arts world today. He nodded and said: "This is clear. Well, I have to study more carefully how to pass through the West Sixth Palace."
"If you go through the royal kitchen, the royal kitchen and some workers' rooms, the security will not be so tight. You'd better go through these tool places."
Wu Yixin suddenly thought: "There is another question!"
"Sister Yixin, what's the problem?" Ji Shuikun replied.
Wu Yixin said: "How do you bring the flint in? How do you light the incense of the other side?"
Ji Shuikun smiled and said: "Haha, Sister Yixin, you are mistaken. There are bright lights everywhere in the palace. I can just find a torch to light it. It won't be a problem. But my Bianxiang must be wrapped in oilcloth. It will not be good if it gets wet.
