Chapter 108: The Dark Guard

Yizhou is located in a basin, with hot summers and humid winters, and the locals especially love spicy food.

The low-lying terrain made the local buildings pay more attention to the eaves, not tiles, and stones, so as to prevent the enemy from marching arrows from high places.

From the heights, it looks like stones stretching up, so Yizhou is also called "Stone City".

The outside of the city is strictly guarded, but the inside of the city is peaceful, and the local people walk on the streets, laughing and laughing.

Luo Qingzhi looked at Gao Zhen and asked, "What's the matter?"

Gao Zhen shook his head, "I don't know, let's go to the Yuelao Temple to find someone first."

The two of them inquired all the way and came to the Yuelao Temple.

All kinds of incense and candles at the entrance of the Yuelao Temple are selling one after another, and they are extremely lively.

"This Lang Jun, entering the Moon Old Temple to order incense and candles is the most effective." An eldest lady called Gao Zhen.

Gao Zhen shook his head, "I'm not here to offer incense."

The eldest lady smiled, looked at Luo Qingzhi in the distance, and said, "It seems that you haven't caught it yet, so you have to ask Elder Yue to bless you."

Gao Zhen still wanted to continue refusing, but the eldest lady took out a red ribbon, "No, the eldest mother will give you for free, tie this red ribbon to the tree, and the old man will understand your mind, if the two of you really have fate, then, the old man will also match you."

Without waiting for Gao Zhen to wave his hand to refuse, the eldest lady had already stuffed the red ribbon into his hand and walked away, trying to attract customers in the next round.

Luo Qingzhi stood far away, didn't hear the conversation between the two, looked at Gao Zhen, who walked over slowly, with a red ribbon in his hand, and asked, "What is it?"

"Pray, pray for blessings." Gao Zhen asked.

Luo Qingzhi could see that he was concealing it, but she didn't want to ask more, "I asked passers-by just now, and they didn't care about the uprising at all."

"Therefore, it is true that there is a revolt of the people." Gao Zhen asked.

"Let's go in first and find your people."

Gao Zhen nodded, put the red ribbon into the cuff, and walked ahead to lead the way.

In the Yuelao Temple, as far as the eye can see, almost all of them are young women, Gao Zhen and Luo Qingzhi are out of place in the crowd, one is because they are too handsome, and the other is because they are too ordinary.

How bold the women in Yizhou are, without the reserve of the women of the Central Plains, seeing Gao Zhen's appearance, many women have already surrounded her, and Luo Qingzhi subconsciously stepped aside.

Gao Zhen's outstretched hand fluttered into the air.

Suddenly, Gao Zhen was drowned in the crowd.

Luo Qingzhi had no way to retreat, she had already arrived at the edge of the pool, she wanted to turn around and reach another open space, but she saw her appearance in the reflective pool, was stunned for a moment, and was pushed into the pool by the crowd.

The sound of plopping was muffled by the shouts and inquiries in the crowd, so that no one noticed Luo Qingzhi, but fortunately, the pool was not deep, she got up a little embarrassed, walked to the shore, and didn't dare to look back behind her.

"Are you alright?"

Luo Qingzhi raised her head, a person who looked like a scholar, stretched out his hand, ready to pull Luo Qingzhi up.

"It's fine." Luo Qingzhi replied, putting her hand in his palm.

Gao Zhen, who was finally squeezed out of the crowd, saw the picture of the two shaking hands and looking at each other affectionately.

Gao Zhen roared, "Let her go."

Such a sound made everyone's eyes focus on Luo Qingzhi, and she, who was already embarrassed, felt even more embarrassed at this time.

The scholar ignored Gao Zhen, pulled Luo Qingzhi up from the pool with all his might, and then lowered his coat and draped it over her body.

"I told you, don't touch her." Gao Zhen was angry again.

Luo Qingzhi lowered her head, her wet hair dripping into the water, and her self-esteem was being impacted one by one.

"Let's go." Luo Qingzhi whispered.

Gao Zhen saw that the two of them were leaving, and panicked instantly, but there were still many people in front of him, so he didn't care about it, he jumped out and blocked in front of Luo Qingzhi.

The surrounding discussion reached Luo Qingzhi's ears.

"Oh my God, how ugly that woman is, why are there still two Langjun jealous of her."

"yes, okay

It's disgusting."

Luo Qingzhi couldn't help but sigh and whispered, "My clothes are all wet, and I want to change into clean clothes."

The scholar immediately said, "I am a local lifter, and I live in the temple, so it is better for the girl to come with me."

Luo Qingzhi nodded and said, "Thank you."

Gao Zhen naturally refused, but Luo Qingzhi didn't want to be in the crowd anymore, and whispered, "Let's go together."

The scholar walked in front to lead the way, and Luo Qingzhi and Gao Zhen followed one after the other.

Several people came to the backyard, the scholar asked Luo Qingzhi to enter the room to change clothes, Gao Zhen stared at the scholar, and asked very unpleasantly, "Who are you?"

The scholar saluted respectfully and said, "The name of the little student is Mengfang, and he is a local lifter."

As long as she encounters Luo Qingzhi's matter, Gao Zhen is like a hen guarding her cubs, staring at Meng Fang and saying, "You, stay away from her."

Meng Fang maintained her elegance and calmness, "If that girl thinks the same way, then I will naturally respect her."

Gao Zhen wanted to continue talking, but when the door opened, he immediately changed into a gentle appearance, stepped forward, and called, "Ah Luo."

Luo Qingzhi took a step back and said, "You, don't get so close to me."

Gao Zhen lowered his eyebrows and asked, "Is it a headache?"

Luo Qingzhi shook her head, "No, I, let's go find someone first."

Luo Qingzhi didn't know how to speak, and she didn't want Gao Zhen to get too close, because the two of them were like two worlds, so incompatible.

Gao Zhen nodded.

Luo Qingzhi came to Meng Fang's side and saluted, "Fang Cai, I haven't thanked Lang Jun yet."

"The little lady is very polite." "It's all done."

Gao Zhen urged, "Ah Luo, it's time to go."

"The agreed place is the Moon Elder Temple, let's go." Gao Zhen said.

Luo Qingzhi walked in front, Yuelao Temple was on the east side, and the two of them arrived one after the other.

There was only one man sweeping in the temple, and Luo Qingzhi turned to look at Gao Zhen, "Really?"

Gao Zhen stepped forward and said, "What time is it?"

The man stopped what he was doing and replied, "It's just past noon."

Gao Zhen said again, "At noon? Then I don't know if there is still fast?"

"There is still fasting food, but it is already cold, do you still want it?"

Gao Zhen nodded, "Naturally."

Hearing Gao Zhen's answer, the man immediately knelt down and saluted, "Subordinate Zeng Lin has seen the second son."

Gao Zhen pointed at Luo Qingzhi and said, "This is tranquility."

Luo Qingzhi stopped him, and Gao Zhen changed his words and said, "This is my maid, An Ning."

Zeng Lin was a little puzzled, when did a maid also need to be introduced.

"It's not convenient to talk here, so it's better to change places." Zeng Lin said.

Gao Zhen said, "Lead the way."

Zeng Lin took the two of them to a pavilion, which was open on all sides, and any wind and grass could be known immediately.

"What's the situation in Yizhou?" Gao Zhen asked.

"Back to the second son, as soon as we arrived in Yizhou, we found that something was wrong, obviously the city gate is so strict, but the city is peaceful."

Gao Zhen sighed and said, "You say something, I don't know."

Zeng Lin paused, thought for a moment, and said, "We met Lord Bailihan."

"How is he?" Luo Qingzhi asked.

Zeng Lin glanced at Gao Zhen, as if asking for his opinion.

"Answer her question." Gao Zhen said.

Zeng Lin said, "Lord Baili is fine, but there are people watching him all the time."

"Who?" Luo Qingzhi asked again.

Zeng Lin glanced at Gao Zhen again.

"From now on, the question of tranquility will be my question, and you can answer it." Gao Zhen said.

Zeng Lin nodded, "Yes."

"It should be General Mengqing's man."

Luo Qingzhi thought back to the military newspaper she had read, "General Meng is not injured

Is it?"

"I'm confused, too." Zeng Lin said: "I have been here for a few days, and I really haven't seen General Meng Qing come forward, but the defense of the entire Yizhou is indeed General Meng's people."

「......」

Luo Qingzhi said, "Then, there are only two possibilities, either General Meng's injury is fake, or someone controls General Meng."

Gao Zhen nodded, "Ah Luo thinks that situation is more likely."

"I don't know." Luo Qingzhi replied.

"Where is Lord Baili imprisoned? Can you take me to meet him?" Luo Qingzhi said.

Zeng Lin subconsciously turned his head to look at Gao Zhen.

Gao Zhen was a little impatient, "Speak."

"It's not." Zeng Lin explained, "That place, only the second son can go."

"Why?" Luo Qingzhi was puzzled.

Zeng Lin said: "They imprisoned Lord Baili in the male pet hall."

"What!" Luo Qingzhi said angrily, "How dare they humiliate their uncle like this..... Lord Baili."

Luo Qingzhi continued to ask, "Can the guards be strict?"

Zeng Lin replied, "Very strict."

Luo Qingzhi looked at Gao Zhen.

Gao Zhen promised, "I will go tonight, and I will definitely rescue Lord Baili."

Luo Qingzhi frowned, "Master Baili has been a Confucian explanatory since he was a child, and if he is placed in such a place, he will be worse than dead, I am afraid that he will do stupid things......

"Understood." Gao Zhen nodded solemnly, "I will definitely rescue him."

Zeng Lin said: "Second son, you are good-looking, no one will doubt it."

As soon as these words were spoken, Gao Zhen had a cold face, and he didn't look very happy.

Luo Qingzhi looked at Gao Zhen with some hesitation, "If you don't want to, I'll ......."

"Don't." Zeng Lin immediately said, "An Ning, you look like this, you can't get in at all."

This was closed, and Luo Qingzhi also had a cold face.

Zeng Lin felt Gao Zhen's gaze, and immediately said, "Eh, that, I, I'll go and prepare, the second son, I'll wait for you at the door."

Only Luo Qingzhi and Gao Zhen were left in the room, and the two glanced at each other and looked away.

"Knock-knock!"

Zeng Lin said, "That, second son, I left the clothes at the door."

Gao Zhen went to open the door and retrieve his clothes, he sneered, "Didn't you want me to do this early in the morning."

Luo Qingzhi said, "Then you change your clothes, I'll go out first."

"Hmm."

Luo Qingzhi left the room, Zeng Lin stared at her with a smile, and said, "An Ning, you seem to have a lot of relationship with our second son."

"Are you really a Dark Guard?" Luo Qingzhi was a little suspicious, even if the secret guard she had seen before was completely silent, but it would not be like Zeng Lin, who would not talk so much.

"Of course I'm a secret guard, and I've been trained by the second son himself." Zeng Lin said proudly.
