The back garden of County Governor Manor was a pocket-sized garden, but it had everything: flowers, grass, wood, stones, a lake, and a pavilion. There was a small lake in the center of the garden. It wasn't stagnant water and was connected to the surrounding mountain streams. With a closer sniff, one could even hear the sound of flowing water.
Summer had arrived, and the heat of the day had dissipated. It was extremely cool and refreshing. A gentle breeze blew, and Li Hao's gaze was gentle as he quietly looked at the girl by the stone platform.
The young girl had changed into female clothing and had some makeup on. Her collar was like a bun, her teeth were like a gourd rhinoceros, and her eyebrows were like a crescent moon…In short, she was very beautiful. She was a classic beauty, especially the heroic spirit of a Jianghu chivalrous woman that she exuded. Li Hao couldn't help but be impressed.
Being stared at by Li Hao, Beauty Jie couldn't help but blush. She opened her charming eyes and opened her jade-like lips."Young master, why are you looking at me like that?”
"You shouldn't have gone north with Elephant Lord!" Li Hao smiled warmly and turned his head, leaving Ling 'er with a handsome side profile.
Ling 'er looked at Li Hao in confusion.
"Youzhou is not a good place at the moment. Do you think the task will be easy for the other party to hire the Thunder Pavilion at such a high price?”The ripples in the lake glistened under the moonlight.
Li Hao's expression was very serious and full of charm. Suddenly, a figure flashed in front of him. The instinct of training for a long time made Li Hao subconsciously tense up.
Then, he slowly relaxed. Ling 'er actually boldly stretched out her hand and smoothed the wrinkles on Li Hao's forehead.
"Young Master, are you worried about me?" With a smile on her face, Ling 'er said confidently,""My martial arts aren't bad either. Even Elephant Lord might not be my match!”
Sensing Ling 'er's actions and being affected by her emotions, Li Hao's expression also eased up.
He looked at the sword at her waist and held Ling 'er's hand."Then let me see how good your martial arts are!”
Hearing this, Ling 'er smiled faintly and jumped out of the pavilion. With a flash of sword light, her figure moved elegantly and danced in the garden.
Drinking alone under the moon, beautiful women dancing with swords.
Li Hao looked at Ling 'er's agile figure in the garden and was a little lost in thought. Subconsciously, a solemn expression appeared on his face.
……
A group of more than ten cavalry, fled to Changping, to the state city. Li Hao was wearing armor, his expression was calm, and his face was resolute.
Elephant Lord was ordered by Li Hao to contact the subordinates of the Thunder Pavilion in the north and restrain them.
Li Hao didn't want the Thunder Pavilion to be overly involved in Youzhou's affairs. If they were to get involved with those traitors, they might not end well.
Ling 'er dressed up as Li Hao's personal guard and followed closely beside him. She changed her clothes and looked different.
"Young master, what are you going to Youzhou for?”Her breathing was a little hurried as she jolted on the horse's back. Ling 'er looked at Li Hao curiously.
"Youzhou Province!" Grabbing the reins of his horse, Li Hao looked south along the official road and smiled indifferently.""Soldiers eat rations. This Youzhou Provincial Governor still owes a lot of military supplies to Ji Province.”
The matter of asking for food was just a joke with Ling 'er. During this period of time, Li Hao could smell the tense atmosphere that enveloped Youzhou even when he was in the Ji Province.
The turmoil in Youzhou was basically centered around the capital city. Due to his blurry memory, Li Hao could not see the current situation in Youzhou. Now that the Thunderclap Pavilion had joined, Li Hao could not sit still in Jizhou.
He wanted to go to the provincial capital to scout the situation and determine how far the situation had developed. Otherwise, he was not sure what role he would play in the upcoming chaos in Youzhou.
Of course, Li Hao couldn't tell Ling 'er about these things.
Ji Province was only a hundred miles away from the city, and they arrived in less than four hours on a fast horse.
It was the time when the sun was high up in the sky, and the sun was a little hot. Under the city gate tower of the state city's north pass, the merchants lined up in a long line, waiting for the guards to check.
Up and down the city pass, the state capital's foreign soldiers were patrolling much more vigorously, and the atmosphere looked very solemn.
Li Hao and his group of officials rode up, and the commoners at the city gate tactfully dispersed. In front of the city gate, the soldiers who were interrogating them were surrounding the three of them. An old man, a middle-aged man, and a young man seemed to be arguing.
The middle-aged man had a dignified expression as he glared at the soldiers around him.
The old man had a smile on his face and was explaining something to the captain of the guards. He held his hand and took out something from his bag and stuffed it into his hand.
The guard, who was originally fierce, immediately changed his expression. He took it and glanced at the old man."You're still tactful. Take good care of your son in the future. Otherwise, he'll go to jail sooner or later!”
"Yes, sir! Yes!" The old man still had a peaceful look on his face as he nodded repeatedly.
Li Hao's group had long attracted everyone's attention. The leader looked at their military attire and was still a little wary. He raised his head and said,"Which part are you from? Dismount!"
Li Hao didn't answer. His attention was on the three people under the door. When he saw the fat old man, he sighed in his heart. What a coincidence.
He recognized the familiar face immediately. It was exactly the same as the image in the TV series " God 1 " in his mind.
Di Renjie, Hu Jinghui, and Li Yuanfang had indeed secretly arrived at Youzhou.
He didn't know him, but he knew him. This kind of encounter gave Li Hao a strange feeling.
"Why? Do we have to check the soldiers of our Great Zhou when they enter the city?”Li Haowei glanced around and leaned on the saddle, looking down at the captain.
"The Provincial Governor has ordered that anyone entering or leaving the city must be checked!”Li Hao's expression revealed a hint of ridicule, causing the captain of the city gate to be furious. He immediately shouted.
Di Renjie was very alert. Li Hao's gaze made him frown slightly. He glanced around and said to the captain cheerfully,""Captain, then we…this…"
The captain waved his hand impatiently.”
Upon seeing this, Di Renjie hurriedly pulled Hu Jinghui and Li Yuanfang, who still had angry expressions, and quickly walked into the city.
Not far away from the city gate, Di Renjie stopped and turned to look at the situation below the city gate.
"My lord! What's wrong?" The one who spoke was Hu Jinghui. The indignant expression on his face gradually dissipated.
He was stopped by Di Renjie. Fatty Di smoothed the bag on his shoulder and looked thoughtful.
"When did the Youzhou guards become so arrogant?”At the city gate, Li Hao lowered his head and looked at this small captain. His tone was indifferent, and coldness surged in his eyes.
