Chapter 86: That Man’s Written Order Part Two
“Station people in two locations for sure. If he wants to reveal that I lied to His Majesty, two places are the best locations to do so. One is the Martial Arts Academy, and the other is the Ministry of War,” Luo Wen said.
“Probably not the Ministry of War at this moment,” Luo Two said after thinking for a while, “The Ministry of War was attacked at night, and more than 100 people got killed. Although the information is being suppressed right now, some rumors are going around. That young man probably wouldn’t go to the Ministry of War right now. If that young man truly got lured into the training field, then the people who want to kill him must be related to the Ministry of War.”
Luo Wen nodded. He knew that his mind was in a mess due to the anxiety; he overlooked this basic information, but Luo Two thought it through.
“Just keep an eye on the Martial Arts Academy then. Once that young man gets close, instantly kill him. Don’t worry about casualties on our end; we can’t let him live.”
“I understand.” Luo Two nodded. Then, he hesitated for a while and asked, “Gongzi Li and Gongzi Jin are both inviting you to Beckon of the Red Sleeve for drinks to celebrate your placement as the no.1 in the academy. Are you going?”
“Of course!” Luo Wen nodded and said, “I would look impolite if I don’t go. Also, I heard that Beckon of the Red Sleeve was the no.1 song and dance ensemble in Chang’an, and they just returned after disappearing for ten years. It was created by Royal King Zhong, and it was the best entertainment spot in the city. I wonder if Beckon of the Red Sleeve is still as unparalleled as before. No matter what, I’m going to check it out.”
“Ok,” Luo Two nodded and said, “I will go and arrange it.”
-Beckon of the Red Sleeve-
Lanterns and colorful banners were hanging everywhere. This was Beckon of Red Sleeve’s grand opening after they returned to Chang’an and obtained the license from the government.
In the early morning, the servants already cleaned the street before the building, and they hung red lanterns on trees and red silk ribbons on the windows.
It was surprising that Beckon of the Red Sleeve was still this influential in Chang’an. Just its name written on the signboard at the top of the gate shocked many people. Huai Qiugong, the Head of the Ministry of Rites, wrote those words himself.
The servants in cyan robes and formal shoes stood on the two sides of the gate, and they were all clean-looking young men.
The velvet carpet reached far outside of the building; this alone showed Beckon of the Red Sleeve’s class.
Before the opening time, many important guests had already arrived.
The first important person who arrived was the Magistrate of Chang’an, Mr. Cui. He came here with a few servants, and they carried in a screen that had plum flowers, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum engraved on it.
Xi Huamei quickly walked up to receive Mr. Cui with a smile, and they chatted as they walked alongside each other, looking like they were acquaintances. The residents in the area who were watching outside were surprised, and they felt like they went back in time and saw the fancy and grand first opening of Beckon of the Red Sleeve more than ten years ago.
Soon, people’s hope became a reality.
After the daily morning meeting with the Emperor ended, the big figures from the important governmental agencies arrived one after another in their horse-drawn carriages that had unique symbols.
The people watching were stunned to their cores.
Compared to these big figures, other important guests didn’t have governmental power, but their status was more prestigious.
Wu Yidao, Gold-Sharing Duke, and Yang Kai, King of Xu State, came at the same time, and they walked alongside each other while chatting and smiling. Behind them, there were a few people who had noble titles such as marquises and counts. They were rich and had a ton of leisure time, and they were all famous in Chang’an.
Soon, an ordinary-looking horse-drawn carriage stopped at the gate. Huai Qiugong came down the horse-drawn carriage with the help of a servant, and Xi Huamei who was talking with people like Wu Yidao quickly walked over and assisted this senior.
“Probably not the Ministry of War at this moment,” Luo Two said after thinking for a while, “The Ministry of War was attacked at night, and more than 100 people got killed.
