“Since Master Sun has spoken, what should we do now that His Highness has changed the location? All our plans these past few days have been ruined.”
An elderly man wearing a square scarf asked.
“Master Hua is absolutely right. What should we do next? You need to explain,” someone else chimed in.
Sun Yuanzhi sneered, “The messenger from the Prince of Qi just said the outing will be by the Xiaoqing River, near the lotus pond. Every year, many people from Qingzhou City go there to enjoy the scenery. There’s also a small grove nearby. Tonight, we’ll hide our men there. When the Prince of Qi arrives tomorrow…”
“Hearing this, I think our chances are better outside the city. After all, we haven’t managed to sneak many of our private soldiers into the city these past few days,” another person said.
“Exactly. Outside the city, I can mobilize all of the Sun family’s private soldiers. Combined with the men you all send, we’ll have over a thousand men. By then, the Prince of Qi won’t be able to escape,” Sun Yuanzhi said with a cold laugh.
“But what if this is a trap set by the Prince of Qi?” someone else worried.
“I’ve already sent people to keep an eye on the Qingzhou military camp. If there’s any unusual activity, we’ll hold our ground. Are you all reassured now?” Sun Yuanzhi said.

After Sun Yuanzhi and the others left, a shadowy figure emerged from behind the house. He glanced in the direction they had gone and then headed straight for the Governor’s Office.
“Sun Yuanzhi!”
