Xia Wanqing paused, clenching the handle of his blade, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Upon recognizing the figure, he slowly relaxed his hand, his face as resolute as stone.
That figure leapt a few times and appeared before Xia Wanqing.
The South Alley was inhabited by dignitaries; they always used the main entrance, traveling by carriage or horseback. Who would use a dark, deserted alley?
At this moment, with no one around, Xia Wanqing whispered, "Old Fifth!"
It turned out that the visitor was Bai Feichen, who had arrived in the Capital City long ago but had not shown himself.
Bai Feichen clasped his hands and said, "Elder Brother!"
Xia Wanqing said, "Old Fifth, you came just at the right time. I've gathered some information and suspect Wenjin is inside. With your help, we can surely rescue Wenjin!"
Bai Feichen glanced at the courtyard wall, then at Xia Wanqing, "Does Elder Brother know whose mansion this is?"
Xia Wanqing said solemnly, "Prince Zhuang Mansion!"
