The elderly couple was startled when I suddenly popped out from the carriage.
I took out a few silver notes and handed them to them, saying, "Thank you."
The elderly couple accepted the silver notes with broad smiles, saying, "You're welcome, you're welcome."
I said, "I have some matters to attend to, so I must leave. Take care of yourselves."
The elderly couple replied, "Be careful."
I nodded, jumped down from the carriage, and walked towards the alley.
I exited the alley and arrived on the main street, where I hailed a vegetable cart heading towards the city gate.
When I reached the city gate, the cart came to a stop.
I got off the cart and walked towards the city gate.
A few guards were standing at the gate. Upon seeing me, they raised their guns and shouted, "Who goes there?"
I calmly replied, "I am Ye Yifan."
The guards were momentarily taken aback and said, "Ye Yifan?"
I nodded and took out an Oiled Paper Umbrella, opening it as I approached them.
Seeing the Oiled Paper Umbrella, the guards' expressions changed. They immediately stood at attention and saluted, saying, "Greetings, sir!"
I smiled slightly and said, "Hello."
With that, I closed the Oiled Paper Umbrella and walked past them, exiting the city.
When I returned to the inn, it was already past eight in the evening.
Sister Thirteen, Yuan Bufei, Mou Xiaoning, and Wang Ningyuan all stood up upon seeing me and asked, "How did it go?"
I smiled and said, "It's done."
I nodded and recounted what had just happened.
Sister Thirteen exclaimed in surprise, "You really found Qi Ziyue?"
Yuan Bufei frowned and asked, "Are you saying that someone is actually trying to steal the charity funds?"
I nodded, "Yes."
Yuan Bufei inquired, "Who is it?"
I replied calmly, "Feng Qinian."
Yuan Bufei was taken aback, "Feng Qinian?"
I nodded and detailed the collusion between Feng Qinian and the Yingzhou People, as well as their plan to steal the charity funds.
After listening, Yuan Bufei was furious, "A small-time Yingzhou scoundrel dares to target my Xiazhu? This is outrageous!"
Sister Thirteen also expressed her anger, "This is too despicable; we must stop them!"
I nodded and said, "Yes, we have to stop them."
Mou Xiaoning remarked, "But Feng Qinian is the biggest force in Haining, with many desperate men under him. Plus, he has ties with the Yingzhou People. If we confront them directly, the risks will be significant."
I replied calmly, "You don't need to worry about that; I have my ways."
Mou Xiaoning asked, "What ways?"
I paused for a moment and said, "I need your help."
Yuan Bufei responded, "You say."
I said slowly, "Our operation this time must be carried out quietly and without revealing our identities. Therefore, we need two fast horses. When Qi Ziyue and the others enter Qingfeng Town, we will ride out of the city and follow them. If Feng Qinian and his group dare to make a move, we will take them down."
Yuan Bufei nodded, "Alright, I'll go prepare."
I shook my head and said, "No, you can't go."
Yuan Bufei asked in confusion, "Why not?"
I looked at him and said, "You're too conspicuous. If you go to prepare the horses, it will easily attract attention."
Yuan Bufei awkwardly replied, "Then who will go?"
Wang Ningyuan stood up and said, "I'll go."
Yuan Bufei looked at him and asked, "You?"
Wang Ningyuan chuckled and said, "I used to be a thief; I have experience in stealing horses."
Yuan Bufei laughed and said, "Alright then, you go."
I patted Wang Ningyuan on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead, be careful."
