Chapter 1147: Beat Him At His Own Game

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After leaving the brothel, Lu Liangwei headed straight to the horse carriage rental shop.

Although Long Chi’s party may have already left at some point during the past two days, she still redid her disguise for safety’s sake.

This time, she stuck a mustache on her face.

Shortly after reaching the shop, she managed to rent a carriage willing to take her to the imperial capital.

Only then did she realize that, on the day she encountered the bandits, she had taken the wrong direction in a moment of panic and had now ended up in a place even farther away from the imperial capital.

After negotiating the price with the coachman, she felt a sudden urge to go to the bathroom and took her leave.

When the coachman saw her return, he lowered the straw hat on his head slightly.

He was still in the driver’s seat—just like how he was when she left just now—so she did not find his action suspicious. “We can leave now” was all she said before boarding the carriage.

The coachman nodded. “Sit tight, Miss.” With a crack of his whip, the carriage started to rumble forward.

Lu Liangwei sat in the carriage, wondering how long it would take to get to the imperial capital from where she was, completely unaware that the carriage was not heading toward the imperial capital at all.

Lu Liangwei lifted the curtain and looked out of the window. For some reason, the sight of the deserted roads unsettled her.

Although she was not certain about the route from the small city to the imperial capital, she still had a general idea of which direction to go.

The imperial capital was in the south, but the carriage was clearly traveling toward… the west.

The west?

Lu Liangwei’s heart thumped, but she remained silent.

Maybe she had been mistaken with the directions.

She swiftly fished the road map that she had just purchased from the rental shop out of her cloth bundle and read it carefully.

After a while, she put the map away, her eyes glinting coldly.

The carriage was indeed heading toward the west.

According to the rental shop owner, one would have to leave the city and travel westward for only two days to reach the West Water Frontier.

The West Water Frontier was in the west, which was where the carriage was heading.

Was she in an illegal carriage?

The next instant, she rejected that possibility.

However, if that was not the case, then something must have happened while she was away in the bathroom.

The original coachman must have been replaced.

She could not help feeling a little annoyed with herself for being so careless.

She did not expect that Long Chi would be so persistent and send his men to watch the horse carriage rental shop.

After figuring that out, Lu Liangwei calmed down and decided to bide her time.

The coachman probably thought that she was still in the dark.

In that case, she would just have to beat him at his own game.

As usual, she carried her cloth bundle in front of her chest. Aside from a set of clothes and a few packs of jerky, there was only medicine inside.

There were medicine balls, coma-inducing medicine, and poison.

She knew exactly where everything was placed.

Other than that, she took a silver needle that had been dipped in poison and held it in her grip.

After making all the necessary preparations, she leaned against the wall of the carriage and closed her eyes.

The coachman glanced behind at the carriage curtain as the wind lifted it. When he saw that Lu Liangwei was asleep, his lips curved into a smug smile.

This man was none other than Zeng Lunan in disguise.

That day, when Lu Liangwei still did not show up, Long Chi’s party left the small city.

Zeng Lunan had left with them as well, but he shortly returned to the city secretly.

He reckoned that a frail woman like Lu Liangwei would need to rent a carriage to go back to the imperial capital, so he lay in wait at the rental shop.

Sure enough, Lu Liangwei appeared today.

At first, he did not see through her disguise.

However, he started to pay more attention to her when he heard her telling the coachman that she wanted to go to the imperial capital.

The small city was in a remote area near the West Water Frontier. It was rare to have visitors from the imperial capital there, so he guessed that it was Lu Liangwei.
