In the early morning at the Ten-mile Pavilion, a layer of mountain mist still veiled the top, and the tea stall outside, convenient for travelers, was already bustling. Merchants heading into the city always loved to sit down here, order a pot of hot tea, and add a few freshly steamed meat buns.
The person who was supposed to be drugged unconscious and snoring at the inn suddenly appeared inside the pavilion. Without needing to think, it was obvious that the two people had known his plan in advance and ran away early.
Su Xiang was secretly annoyed at his subordinates' incompetence while keeping a stern face, saying, "I'm not hungry!"
With that, he swiftly put down the curtain and ordered the people to continue the journey.
After traveling a short distance, an accompanying guard came forward and handed him two packages wrapped in oil paper.
Su Xiang took them, one package was brined cooked beef and the other contained two meat buns.
