Liang Changgong sighed and returned to his residence.
The two of them thought they had concealed the matter, but they didn't know that Zhang Yan had already noticed something from their words and demeanor, paying special attention to them. What they said after leaving the residence was all transmitted to his ears.
After a brief contemplation, Zhang Yan had made up his mind and called in the Daoist boy outside the door, saying, "The other day I had a meeting with Daoist Hua from the Golden Ling Sect, and I found our conversation very congenial. We agreed to visit each other someday. Do you know where he is now?"
The Daoist boy didn't suspect anything and said, "Daoist Hua resides in the East Garden's other palace. It's not far from here; would you like me to take you there, Daoist?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "It's only a few steps away, no need for you to come along. You may leave now."
