Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 448 - 351: Yet Now She Harbors the Vicious Idea of Killing Her Husband—How Can He Still Turn a Blind Eye?!
Li Ren glanced at her, kicked the horse’s belly, and continued forward.
But he didn’t respond directly to her question: "You’ll know once we get there."
When they reached the city gate, it was already past midnight. Li Ren held a document in his hand, and Ruan Mian didn’t know what it was. Still, the guards, upon seeing the document, allowed them entry without question, not even searching them.
Given they had a carriage, not searching them felt peculiar.
Could it be that among the guards, there were insiders collaborating with Li Ren and his group?
Perhaps that was the case.
Originally, she thought they’d stop at an inn, but unexpectedly, they headed straight to the east gate of the city. Seeing the quiet surroundings, Ruan Mian frowned slightly.
At this moment, Li Ren suddenly ordered his men to move the gunpowder boxes, disguised as goods and grain, under the city gate.
Seeing this, Ruan Mian seemed to realize something. Before she could ask, Li Ren had already walked up to her.
"Miss Mian, within one hour, I need you to properly arrange for all this gunpowder to be buried under the east gate."
"Rest assured, everyone around us is our people, so there’s no need to worry."
Ruan Mian suddenly looked up, clearly not expecting they wouldn’t even have a moment to rest; they came to work straight away!
Once the gunpowder is buried, will they be launching the rebellion tonight?!
Why wasn’t there any hint of this earlier? If it’s indeed a rebellion, why is there no movement from Yun Xiu’s brother’s side?!
Ruan Mian’s eyes tightened suddenly, clearly not expecting such an unexpected situation.
Her whole body instantly tensed up.
Seeing the crowd gathering around, she couldn’t find a way out, nor could she contact Ah Huai immediately.
If she gets exposed, the subsequent plans might have to be advanced.
By then, it’ll be even harder for Ah Huai to handle.
She calmed herself down, having no choice but to go with the flow, temporarily trying to find out if they’re indeed planning to rebel tonight.
If tonight is just an ambush, she still has a chance to convey the information.
At worst, she could leave everyone’s sight and use the spirit beast with spatial abilities to send a message to the Horse Transport Gang.
It might take some time going back and forth, but Ah Huai wouldn’t be completely unprepared.
A message had been sent earlier, and over these few days, the Imperial Palace would undoubtedly remain heavily guarded.
Seeing how brazen these people were, clearly, many had been bribed in secret.
Not sure how the imperial guards of the Imperial Palace are positioned.
She hadn’t heard of King Yan arriving in the Capital City.
Thinking of this, she asked Li Ren: "Is the lord completely in charge tonight? Is the lord working for the Fifth Prince, has the Prince come too?"
Li Ren looked at her warily and only said: "Miss Mian, you don’t need to know these matters, just make sure to properly arrange the gunpowder."
At this time, someone had already come to communicate with Li Ren.
Even if Li Ren leaves now, she has no room for extra maneuvers, with so many eyes watching her.
Especially one of Li Ren’s guards, who even followed closely behind: "Miss Mian, I’m here to protect you. Just focus on your task with confidence."
How is this protecting safety? It’s clearly supervision; to put it bluntly, it’s surveillance.
It seemed Li Ren regarded this matter very seriously. Even though he seemed to trust her completely on this journey, at a critical moment, he still remained cautious.
Thinking of this, Ruan Mian could only observe the situation as it unfolded.
Originally, she hoped to find an opportunity to send a message out, but she realized there wasn’t any chance or enough time given to her.
Without her guidance, Li Ren’s men had already set up the gunpowder formation with the fastest speed.
Seeing this speed, Ruan Mian was stunned for a moment.
Just as she was about to search for Li Ren’s figure, suddenly a group of people in the crowd led them away from the area.
Li Ren’s guard, along with the others, reassured Ruan Mian: "Miss Mian, let’s wait outside for news, shall we? The lord will be back soon. He also instructed that you must stay close to him for safety."
