Chapter 233: Counter Espionage

Same day, after the Prime Minister left the chamber of the Intelligence Chief.

Jaydev wrote a small report on a scroll that he needed to pass to the Mughals and left his official chamber.

A patrol guard discreetly followed him, stationed outside the corner as he went out of his office. This guy was a spy agent set by Aditya to keep track of Jaydev, but despite his best efforts, he couldn't hide his presence.

Jaydev knew he was being followed but didn't bother and went straight out of the imperial palace to the city.

There, he went to a merchant shop to buy some flowers. The shop was a street stall with items meant for prayers. The merchant remarked as he received the pouch of silver coins, "I hope all your worries get sorted, my lord." Jaydev smiled as he left, leaving onlookers bewildered by the sudden presence of a noble. He was a known figure there and often bought things for offering in the same temple of Goddess Durga.
