Su Zhao was stunned by his words. She also understood that he was afraid that she would be in danger, which was why he took the risk to look for her. Otherwise, he could have just left.
For a moment, she was both sad and happy. She was angry that this man was using her, but she was happy that this man had her in his heart.
His straightforwardness and honesty made her unable to hate him even if she wanted to. After interacting with him, she more or less understood him and knew that this man was such a person.
"Why do you want to go to Qingshan County? Can Niu Youdao tolerate me? "Su Zhao suddenly asked. The fact that she could say such words meant that she was moved.
Yuan Gang said, "Given the current situation, once you leave, I won't be able to protect you. The only person I know and can trust is Daoye. I can only go to Qingshan County to look for Daoye. Don't worry, no matter where you come from, as long as you are my woman, Daoye will definitely tolerate you. No matter how big the risk is, he will definitely find a way to protect you. You don't have to worry about this. "
Just as he said, he really had no other choice. It must be known that it hadn't been long since he parted ways with Daoye. If he was alone, he wouldn't have gone back to cause trouble for Daoye. He had no choice but to return to Qingshan County to protect her.
Su Zhao's emotions were complicated. She suddenly asked, "Do you like me?"
Yuan Gang didn't know how to answer her. In all fairness, he didn't like her. It was just the result of a moment of impulse. However, he had to be responsible for his own mistakes.
He also heard the two layers of meaning in her words. The answer to whether she would follow him or not would be in his answer.
Yuan Gang was conflicted, but he still said the words that went against his heart. "I do!"
Su Zhao smiled and cried. She instantly threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly. She was so happy that she cried, "Good! No matter what happens in the future, I am willing to bear all the consequences. I will go with you! "
Yuan Gang patted her back. "There's no time to lose. It will be too late if we delay any longer. Let's go now!" He pushed her away and held her hand.
He had only taken a few steps when Su Zhao suddenly stopped and grabbed him, not letting him go.
Yuan Gang turned around, a little confused.
Su Zhao shook his head and said helplessly, "We can't leave. We can't leave."
Yuan Gang turned around and asked, "Why? Is there anything that you can't let go of? "
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I lied to you. Actually, I knew you were poisoned." Su Zhao's eyes were filled with tears. She held his cheeks with both hands in remorse and shook her head helplessly. "Since you know that I am from the Waning Moon Pavilion, do you know what poison they gave you?"
Yuan Gang: "I don't know, but it's not important."
Su Zhao said painfully: "Bitter Divine Pill! You might not understand, but that kind of poison will act up once every three months. Without the antidote, you won't be able to resist it. The control of the antidote is extremely strict. When I need to use it, I can only get one antidote at a time. What if I don't have the antidote in the future? You should know how it feels to be poisoned. We can't leave. "
Yuan Gang immediately reached into his bosom and took out the three wax pills that he had collected from the tofu restaurant. He crushed one of them and revealed a black pill. He asked, "Are you talking about this antidote?"
Su Zhao lowered his head and sniffed. Then he looked up and was a little surprised. "Three? The control of the antidote is extremely strict. Where did you get so many antidotes? "
Yuan Gang: "The antidote you gave me before."
"…" Su Zhao still didn't understand.
Yuan Gang: "That poison is useless to me. It can't control me at all. I don't need these antidotes. I'll keep them."
"Really?" Su Zhao was very surprised.
Yuan Gang: "I'm not going to court death. Don't waste any more time. If you delay any longer, you won't be able to leave even if you want to."
Su Zhao nodded repeatedly. Then she walked to the door and stopped Yuan Gang. She asked, "Since you're being watched, are you sure you can still leave in broad daylight?"
Yuan Gang was silent for a moment and was a little unsure. He said, "According to the information I received, I don't think they will alert the enemy now. They will probably wait until the night when my people gather together. There's always a way to leave."
"Okay, then listen to my arrangements …" Su Zhao exhorted and then went out the door.
After leaving the room, she waved at Qin Mian, who was pacing around in the distance. She called Qin Mian over and said, "There's a distinguished guest coming. Go to the back door to welcome him."
Qin Mian couldn't help but ask curiously, "Boss, who is the distinguished guest?"
Su Zhao: "Don't ask too much. You'll know when he comes."
"Okay!" Qin Mian agreed and left.
After confirming that she was gone, Su Zhao quickly returned to the room and took some items. Then, she took Yuan Gang out and went straight to a secluded place. She pushed open a fake mountain used for concealment and entered the water cave with Yuan Gang. Then, they left through the secret passage in the clouds …
Qin Mian paced around the water pavilion at the back door. She waited for a long time until evening, but there was no guest.
When the distinguished guest finally arrived, he didn't enter through the back door. Instead, he entered through the secret passage in the clouds. She only knew that the distinguished guest had arrived when someone informed her.
In the dark room, a man covered in a black cloak had his back to her.
Qin Mian, who entered the dark room, hurriedly bowed. "Mr. Bai, I didn't expect Boss to let me welcome Mr. Bai."
"Call Su Zhao over," Mr. Bai, who was covered in the black cloak, said Slowly.
"Yes!" Qin Mian left to look for Su Zhao.
But she couldn't find Su Zhao. She asked around, but Su Zhao and Yuan Gang didn't leave the clouds. Someone saw the two go in the direction of the secret passage, but they couldn't be sure if they left through the secret passage.
Returning to the dark room, Qin Mian could only report the truth.
Half of Mr. Bai's face under the cloak tightened. He asked, "Is An Taiping here too?"
Qin Mian: "Yes."
Mr. Bai: "They left through the secret passage?"
Qin Mian was a little hesitant. "I'm not sure. Logically speaking, An Taiping wouldn't know about the secret passage so easily."
Mr. Bai turned around and walked over. "Continue the search."
"Yes!" Qin Mian replied and turned around.
However, something happened in an instant. Bang! Mr. Bai suddenly hit Qin Mian's back with his palm. It was a complete sneak attack.
Qin Mian didn't move at all, but blood spurted out of her chest. She widened her eyes and slowly turned around. She looked at Mister Bai in disbelief and asked, "Why?"
Mr. Bai said calmly, "An Taiping is Niu Youdao's trusted subordinate, Yuan Gang. Su Zhao's identity has been exposed. The line you're in charge of is of great importance. Nothing can happen to it. Don't worry, the organization will take good care of your son. Go in peace! "
Qin Mian's face was full of sorrow. She fell to the ground, twitching and coughing up blood. Gradually, she stopped moving and died with her eyes wide open …
The sky turned dark.
General Huyan's Mansion. Cha Hu quickly walked into a room. Huyan Wuhen was standing in front of a map of Dajin. She held a two-colored flag in her hand, and from time to time, she inserted and plucked the flag from the map.
Not caring that he might interrupt his train of thought, Cha Hu urgently reported, "General, Niu Youdao might have escaped."
Huyan Wuhen slowly turned around. "Haven't we been keeping an eye on him? Didn't they say he was in the clouds? "
Cha Hu: "The people keeping an eye on him haven't seen him come out of the clouds. Also, those guys who were sent out for training haven't returned yet. I got someone to contact the manager of the Tofu Restaurant. Manager Gao said that the people working at the stall today are the guys who usually don't participate in training. This is very unusual. "
Huyan Wuhen turned around and walked to the table. He threw a two-colored flag on the table. "Did we leak the news, or did the palace leak the news?"
Cha Hu: "Both are possible. Maybe they sensed something ahead of time, and those guys were sent out for training early in the morning. At that time, we hadn't received any news from the palace."
Huyan Wuhen sat on the chair behind the table. "Good lad. He didn't leave for so long. It seems like he's trying to cover for the others and attract attention to buy time for those guys to leave. This guy's style of doing things is big and bold. He trained openly every day, laying the groundwork for a group of people to leave openly. Good guts, he even deceived me. "
Cha Hu asked, "Should we search the clouds to see if he's still there?"
Huyan Wuhen sneered. "Everyone in the world knows that there's a brothel called White Clouds in the capital of Qi. It really has a good reputation. The soldiers are risking their lives on the frontline, but the nobles in the capital are fooling around in a brothel. How can the frontline soldiers bear it? There's nothing to search. I've long disliked it. Let's use the palace's message as an excuse to mobilize troops and directly raid White Clouds! He may have left the city long ago. Pass down my order to send scouts to search. At the same time, contact the school affairs station to open their eyes and search for him. If they find him, immediately contact the nearest army to intercept him! "
"Okay!" Cha Hu agreed. In his heart, he understood that if the Huyan family didn't marry the Eldest Princess, this person wouldn't easily touch the King of the West Courtyard. Because he didn't want to get involved in the disputes of the royal family, he was taking the opportunity to express his stance …
With the military order, the capital was in an uproar.
Inside the palace, Bu Xun walked up to the pavilion and reported to Hao Yun Tu, who was leaning against the railing. "Huyan Wuhen has mobilized troops to surround White Clouds. This means that he wants to raid White Clouds."
Hao Yun Tu said, "Everyone knows that it's Fifth Brother's property. The Great General's style of handling matters is a little rough. This is a public slap to Fifth Brother's face. Fifth Brother will be hopping mad."
Bu Xun secretly glanced at his expression. Some things were clear. Huyan Wuhen publicly falling out with the King of the West Courtyard was something this person would be happy to see …
Just as Hao Yun Tu had said, the King of the West Courtyard, Hao Yun Sheng, rushed to the scene the moment he heard that his property had been inexplicably raided.
By the time he arrived, White Clouds had already been surrounded by heavy troops. The nearby streets had already been cut off by troops with swords, spears, and torches.
The interior of White Clouds was in a mess. People were constantly being escorted out.
Regardless of royal power or wealth, the male customers were forced to kneel in a row on the side of the street, holding their heads in their hands.
It was the same for the escorted women. They were forced to kneel on the other side of the street, their backs facing the male customers. In the middle were soldiers with swords and spears.
Many of them were disheveled.
Some of the male customers relied on their background, while some of the women relied on the backing of White Clouds. In the beginning, they were still making a ruckus. However, when they learned that it was the Valiant Cavalry, those who knew what was good for them shut up.
Those who didn't know what was good for them were beaten half to death on the spot. After a few bloody heads fell to the ground, everyone was instantly intimidated. Everyone became obedient and cooperated.
