Next time Niuniu found something she liked, she would definitely tell Song Yaoyao and have her get it for her.
Song Yaoyao had no idea what Niuniu was thinking!
If she had known, she would surely have felt that she had brought home a little overlord to serve!
When she first took Niuniu in, she had been counting on the bird to support her. Who would have thought Niuniu would start making demands first?
Song Yaoyao's plan to rely on a bird in her old age had fallen through!
Song Yaoyao handed Niuniu over to Ginkgo before going off to attend to other matters.
Meanwhile, Qi Yanzhen was still following his usual routine, heading up the mountain every night.
That day, Seventh came to report:
"Commandery Princess, some of Qi Yanzhen's men entered Illusion City today."
Song Yaoyao had expected this:
"Are they being watched?"
"We don't have enough men on our side.
As soon as Qi Yanzhen's men entered the city, I notified Young General Han. He has already sent men to watch them."
Young General Han was Han Chuyu.
Song Yaoyao nodded:
"Don't stir the grass and startle the snake just yet."
"Yes."
Song Yaoyao had already received a letter from General Han. They were expected to arrive in another three days.
They had to be especially vigilant during the three days before General Han arrived. Qi Yanzhen would probably make his move during that time.
Song Yaoyao continued:
"Qi Yanzhen must know exactly how far General Han and his men have come.
They'll probably act within the next few days. Keep a close eye on them. We can't afford a single slipup."
"Yes."
Next, Song Yaoyao followed Seventh and the others to check on Qi Yanzhen's subordinates who had already slipped into the city.
