Chapter 958 Entering the Courtyard and Climbing to the Roof
It seems that the people in this courtyard really trust the observation capabilities of the three hidden sentries in the three big trees outside.
Indeed, this courtyard is neither small nor very large. Not far from the street outside the courtyard, three trees stand tall, and the sentries, hidden in the trees, have a commanding view of the courtyard and a large area around it.
Since they didn't issue any warning signals, it meant that everything was fine here, so the people in the courtyard naturally had nothing to worry about.
While they were in the tree, both Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu simultaneously looked down and surveyed their surroundings...
After confirming that no one was active in the surrounding courtyards and on the rooftops, they knew that they wouldn't be noticed when they jumped onto the roofs to observe the situation inside.
The two hid in the shadows at the corner of the wall and observed the courtyard closely... They found nothing unusual, and no one was moving around at the moment.
Flipping up their thermal imaging goggles, the two slowly approached the house in the courtyard along the wall.
The courtyard has a main house facing south with one bright room and two dark rooms, and symmetrical side rooms on the east and west sides.
The main hall in the middle of the house was lit up, and there must have been more than one lamp on; the light was very bright.
The rooms on both sides were rather dim, probably because there were no additional lights on; they were just using the light from the main room.
Of the rooms on the east and west sides, only the east room was lit, and the faint sounds of many people talking could be heard from inside—it was definitely the language of the Eastern Wei Kingdom.
Holding Leng Rongyue's small hand, Xiao Jingyu and Leng Rongyue quietly approached the window of the east wing...
He crouched down to avoid casting his shadow on the window in the moonlight.
Listen closely...
The guys inside were chatting idly, saying that after they entered the city gate, they were thinking of going to a brothel to have some fun, but their Crown Prince stopped them!
Not only were they stopped, but they were also scolded by their crown prince...
"His Highness the Crown Prince said that the timing is not right and we should not act rashly, lest we cause trouble and affect the important matters to come!"
Actually, the situation isn't that tense!
The people of Jingyue Kingdom... are incredibly stupid. They have no idea that our Crown Prince has already arrived here and is freely moving in and out of their capital city.
They'll just assume our Crown Prince is still on his way to Jingyue Capital!
One of the people inside said with a look of disdain.
Watch your words!
His Highness the Crown Prince has warned you many times to avoid the customs of our Eastern Venezuela when speaking. You really need to be careful about how you speak!
Another person reminded him.
"You're criticizing me, but aren't you saying the same thing?"
Now that we're on our own turf, it's fine. Just be careful when you go out!
The man was dismissive, speaking in a nonchalant tone.
"Now that we've gotten used to saying it, it's easy to make mistakes when we're out in public. Yours... ours... we all need to be careful!"
The man spoke again.
"Akita-san is right, we all need to be careful!"
Someone nearby chimed in.
"Listen to your own words, haha... just like me! Just like me!"
Hahaha……"
Another person burst out laughing and chimed in.
"Hahaha... Our language in East Venezuela is the best!"
"We have no choice but to change according to the customs of their Jingyue Kingdom. To be honest, I'm really unhappy and unwilling!"
The man spoke disdainfully, his mouth twitching into a distorted, broken shape.
"The unhappiness and resentment are only temporary."
When the day comes that this vast and beautiful Jingyue Kingdom belongs to our Dongwei Kingdom, the people of Jingyue Kingdom… will either be slaughtered or enslaved. And the slaves will naturally speak according to the customs of our Dongwei Kingdom!”
This bastard has some kind of confidence about him, and he seems quite smug about it.
"Yes Yes……"
"..."
What followed was just casual, intermittent chatting.
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu stared at each other, their eyes burning with rage!
The two clasped hands together, tightening their grip.
No words were needed; they shared the same thoughts:
Are you going to kill everyone in Jingyue Kingdom?
Do you want to enslave the people of Jingyue Kingdom?
The beasts of East Venezuela are really bold, and their ambitions are even greater!
Heh... What you don't know is that you beasts only have a few more days to live!
In a few days... you will all be slaughtered!
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu did not linger in the east wing. They moved to the west wing and listened at the window. It was silent inside. There should be no one there... no, it should be said that there were no beasts from Dongwei Kingdom there.
The two moved quietly into the second courtyard.
In the second courtyard, only one lamp was lit on the east side of the main hall; the other rooms were completely dark.
Without further delay, Xiao Jingyu put his arm around Leng Rongyue's slender waist and whispered in her ear, "Yue'er, I'll take you to the rooftop!"
Leng Rongyue didn't mince words and nodded directly.
Feeling Xiao Jingyu's arm wrap around her waist, Leng Rongyue gathered her breath and, with Xiao Jingyu's strength, rose into the air with him.
Once Xiao Jingyu landed silently on the roof tiles, Leng Rongyue gently placed her feet on the tiles to steady herself.
Xiao Jingyu and Leng Rongyue exchanged a smile, and then Xiao Jingyu released his arm from Leng Rongyue's waist.
