After Rong Xiao released the carrier pigeon, he had to regain his confidence and rack his brains to deal with the matter.

Shen Ruogu, he must be saved.

But now, he didn't know where he was being held, and his next plan had to be stalled

Distraught, he pushed open the door, not expecting a group of people kneeling in front of the door, begging for punishment.

"You ......" He was taken aback, and stood stunned in place, looking at the rare scene in front of him.

"Lord Rong, your subordinates have not done their job well, and they should be punished." The man at the head clasped his hands into fists and saluted respectfully.

They have been stationed here for so long, and they have wasted a night of time without finding Miss Shen, which is indeed their dereliction of duty.

Even if Rong Xiao didn't blame them for anything, the pimple in his heart made it impossible for them to pass this matter.

"Well, your abilities are limited. I'm going to go to the palace myself tonight. Rong Xiao raised his hand to signal them to get up, and told them to draw a map of the palace for themselves.

"If you really don't want to go, you will wait for my news outside, and if something happens to me, it is better to make a reasonable appearance."

The group of big men in front of them, there is no need to say some things explicitly, they know it in their hearts.

Besides, this kind of superficial punishment is meaningless at all. He didn't feel the need to do it.

Several people looked at each other and stood up hesitantly.

"Alright, after you draw the map, tell me about the layout of the palace, so that I don't find the north when I get to the palace at night."

Before you know it, night falls.

Rong Xiao looked at the night outside the window and secretly clenched his fists.

The people he sent out last night searched the palace all night, but they didn't find any trace of Shen Ruogu.

It is conceivable that Shi Yao must have some secret room inside the palace. It's just that it's too secretive for them to notice.

Tonight, he planned to sneak directly into Shi Yao's dormitory and confront that woman.

At this juncture, instead of looking around in the palace like a headless fly, it is better to go straight to the target and let the person concerned personally tell Shen Ruogu where he was tied up.

"Lord Rong, the palace is heavily guarded, no matter what you do, you must be careful in everything." After learning of Rong Xiao's plan, others will inevitably start to worry.

The palace is Shi Yao's territory, and if he is not careful, Rong Xiao may also be caught and locked up.

"Okay, I'm in my own hands, wait for my good news." Rong Xiao didn't care, in his eyes, if he couldn't fight a woman, then he would be Qin Lingjue's subordinate.

According to the map they gave in advance, Rong Xiao first used light skills to avoid the guards at the gate of the palace. Sitting on the eaves, he began to study which direction he should go.

Although the palace is heavily guarded, there are people patrolling around at every time. But in between shifts, it's the best time to take advantage of it.

After going back and forth like this, it is not as difficult as imagined to sneak into Shi Yao's dormitory smoothly.

"Who? Who's there. The two guards guarding the door heard a strange noise not far away, and their originally lazy expressions suddenly became vigilant.

They glanced at each other, each picked up the dagger in his hand, and walked in unison in the direction of the strange noise.

Rong Xiao, who was hiding on the beams of the house, looked at their cautious appearance, resisted the idea of laughing, turned over, and rolled smoothly into the backyard.

As long as he walked a few steps further, Shi Yao's dormitory was close at hand.

"This woman who doesn't know what to do is have to give her some color." Rong Xiao muttered in his mouth and walked towards the door step by step.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to sneak into the palace and force Shi Yao to tell Shen Ruogu's whereabouts. However, things didn't seem to be as simple as he imagined.

"It's too quiet, isn't it?" The closer he got to the dormitory, a strange emotion arose spontaneously in Rong Xiao's heart.

He didn't know why he had such an intuition in such a situation, and he thought that he was too nervous to have such a thought.

Suddenly, an arrow cut through the silence until it was fired at him.

He was stunned for a moment, but reflexively turned around and let him pass by the arrow.

There is an ambush here!

An alarm bell suddenly rang in his heart, and his eyes scanned his surroundings vigilantly.

He originally thought that he was too proud of the vigilance of this palace, but he didn't expect that all this was Shi Yao's carefully laid out plan.

"Rong Xiao, you are really amazing, three roots came to visit in the middle of the night, but they didn't squeak."

Before anyone heard it, they heard it first, and before Qin Lingxiao could react, a group of guards suddenly sprang out around the originally quiet surroundings.

"You knew I was coming." Only then did Rong Xiao realize that he had accidentally fallen into her trap. I secretly regret that I was too careless to get to this point.

"Do you think it's easy to enter the palace? You can come here without even noticing a person? Shi Yao's face was sarcastic, and he didn't take Rong Xiao in his eyes at all.

From the moment Shen Ruogu was caught red-handed by her, Shi Yao had already realized that someone would definitely sneak into the palace and secretly rescue Shen Ruogu.

Just last night, the people arranged by her subordinates did inform her that there were several sneaky shadows, looking for something in all corners of the palace.

She was ready to stand still, just waiting for Rong Xiao to throw herself into the net.

"Do you think I'm here to come and go whenever you want?" Shi Yao was only one step away from Rong Xiao, as long as she raised her hand, as long as she blinked, the man in front of her would be shot with a bow and arrow.

"When you do this, you should know what you're about to face!" Rong Xiao warned her not to try to hurt Shen Ruogu.

"Are you threatening the wrong person? Do you think I'm going to be afraid of those few words from you? Shi Yao sneered, feeling that Rong Xiao didn't seem to understand his situation.

"If I move a finger lightly, you're going to be stabbed into a hornet's nest?" Thinking of such a ridiculous scene, Shi Yao couldn't help laughing, looking at him with stupid eyes.

Rong Xiao glanced at the group of people around him, each of them had a bow and crossbow in their hands, as long as Shi Yao spoke, tonight would be his death day.

However, he was not afraid of what Shi Yao did.

In his cognition, there is no compromise!

"People are born to die, even if I die here tonight, I will be a good man in eighteen years! Don't try to scheming me with your thoughts! Rong Xiao said word by word, not afraid of her threat at all.

"You really don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin!" Shi Yao looked up to the sky and laughed, feeling that he was not self-sufficient.

With this little brain, he dared to break into her palace without permission! What a stupid person.
