The two of them made a round and settled down at a teahouse.
Zhang Yun said in a low voice, "We can't get in. It seems that the Nanchu King is quite safe." Before Zhou Gu could respond, he shook his head, "No, that's not it. This only indicates that the situation is even more tense. This doesn't mean that it is safe. Once both sides mobilize their troops, the Royal Palace would be vulnerable, despite being heavily fortified."
Zhou Gu nodded, "That's right."
Zhang Yun asked, "So what do we do now? My martial arts skills are not as good as yours, so I definitely can't make it. You could try, but the palace has strict defenses. It's not guaranteed that you won't make a big fuss once you're in. At that point, our initial intention of sneaking someone out would be completely thrown off."
He turned to Zhou Gu, "Moreover, it would be too risky. There could be unforeseen problems. Our lives are at stake after all."
