Lu Zhenzhen nodded and straightened Fu Zhiyi's clothes. "Go ahead. Leave the matters of the county government and the government office to me. Don't worry!"

Fu Zhiyi looked at Lu Zhenzhen deeply, turned around and walked out with his men.

After watching them leave, Lu Zhenzhen turned around and sat down again, smiling and saying, "Your parents have some things to deal with, let's continue to have our own fun! Whoever told the joke just now was a good one. Tell two more. If you tell a good one, there will be a reward later--"

Everyone was feeling a little nervous, but when they saw Lu Zhenzhen smiling and in a good mood to listen to jokes, they calmed down.

He cheered up and told two jokes, which really made everyone laugh.

Lu Zhenzhen did what she said and immediately rewarded him with a mooncake and a pot of fine wine.

When the people around saw this, they were also eager to try it.

He bravely recommended himself.

Some people sang folk songs from their hometowns, and those who were skillful made a lot of things with the flowers and plants in the garden, including straw grasshoppers, puppies, and flower baskets.

Presented it to Lu Zhenzhen.

Lu Zhenzhen didn't expect that there were such skillful people under her. They all loved it and she rewarded them with mooncakes and a dish.

It was so lively and bustling that it lasted until the moon was at its highest point in the sky and it was almost three o'clock in the morning.

Lu Zhenzhen then said it was time to disperse, and asked everyone to clean up the mess and go back to rest. She also instructed that everyone would be given an extra month's salary tomorrow.

Everyone cheered immediately.

But in the end, Lu Zhenzhen also warned, "From tomorrow on, no matter who asks about the master, just say that the master is drunk. Do you understand?"

Everyone immediately nodded and agreed in unison.

Nanny Ye sent Lu Zhenzhen back to her room, and couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Is the master really okay?"

Although Lu Zhenzhen was unsure, after all, the plot had long since deviated from the original book. She was not sure what would happen to Fu Zhiyi in the future, whether he would be injured or if something would happen to him.

But in front of Madam Ye, she was very calm: "I believe in the Fourth Master!"

Seeing Lu Zhenzhen so calm, Nanny Ye felt relieved a little. After helping Lu Zhenzhen fall asleep, she left.

Only when Lu Zhenzhen was the only one left in the room did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Come to think of it, Chinese people always cram at the last minute.

Although she didn't believe this, she had already traveled through time, so there was no harm in believing it occasionally.

She got up and touched her belly, which had grown from the good food and drink she had received in South Vietnam over the past few months. She prayed to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, "I would like to use this piece of flesh around my waist to pray for my husband, Fu Zhiyi, to return safely and smoothly!"

After thinking about it, afraid that the gods and Buddhas in the sky would think that his sincerity was not enough, he added: "If this is not enough, then let's sacrifice the abilities of those scumbag men in Ningping Marquis' Mansion! Keeping them will only harm women. It's better to sacrifice them. They won't harm women anymore, and it will also be a good deed!"

After saying this, he kowtowed sincerely.

He didn't care at all what mood and expression the gods and Buddhas in the sky would have when they heard about this sacrifice.

After praying, Lu Zhenzhen felt a little calmer. She thought again that nothing would happen to Fu Zhiyi tonight and she could sleep peacefully.

After all, when she wakes up tomorrow, she will have to face many things. If she is not in a good mood, it will be bad if something goes wrong.

After convincing herself, Lu Zhenzhen fell asleep within a few minutes.

At this moment, outside the Nanyue County, Fu Zhiyi was riding a horse and galloping along the official road with a group of people.

Fortunately, tonight is the fifteenth day of the eighth month, and the moon is as bright as silver. Even at night, it is bright, which is perfect for traveling.

Fu Zhiyi's face was as gloomy as he thought about the news reported by the visitor.

It turns out that Tang Liang and his gang have been waiting outside the peninsula for an opportunity to enter the peninsula?

With the cheating weapon of the telescope, plus the deployment of secret sentries outside and the shift changes, all of them are modeled after the military system.

After observing for half a day, he also figured out the pattern of the secret sentries and patrolmen's movements.

Tang Liang and his men found a gap in the second half of the night. Taking advantage of the time when the secret guards were changing shifts, they broke through the defense line set up by the secret guards and patrolmen without anyone noticing.

They did not dare to advance rashly and could only sneak behind the sentries and patrolmen who had come to rest.

Follow inside at a close distance.

The further you go inside, the more frightened you become.

In addition to the secret sentries and patrols on the mountain road at the beginning, there are several layers of sentries inside.

Moreover, the sentries and patrolmen outside were still wearing local clothes, but the second-level sentries were already wearing military uniforms.

Tang Liang recognized that these were the clothes of the local garrison.

Several people showed horror on their faces.

This outpost even has secret codes for communication, and its operations are exactly the same as those of the local garrison of the imperial court.

Seeing this situation, Tang Liang didn't dare to move.

He could only select two of the best ones to follow him and explore inside.

The others followed the original path and looked for an opportunity to exit.

With the help of telescopes and because it was dark, the few people finally passed through two levels of sentry posts in this deep mountain forest.

Suddenly everything became clear.

Finally I saw the flat ground.

Surrounded by a circle of dense forests and mountains, the place does not look big. In addition to some local houses in the middle of the flat land, there are also many tents scattered outside.

After leaving the dense forest, there is a stone wall made of thorns, vines and rocks, and a gate, with people guarding on both sides.

The security is very strict.

Occasionally, you can see people patrolling between the tents and the houses.

The more Tang Liang looked at it, the more familiar it looked. The Kyoto Imperial Guards Camp was somewhat similar to this.

Judging from the situation, this might really be a military camp.

Taking a few deep breaths, Tang Liang tried hard to suppress his heartbeat that was about to burst out of his chest. He made a gesture, indicating that the two people following him should hide more secretly.

The place where several people were hiding was not a good place, it was right in a blind corner.

Although others cannot see them for the time being, there is still a problem.

Perhaps because this place is remote, some people regard it as a place for the recycling of grains.

Before I even got close, a strong smell of urine hit my nose.

The three of them were almost suffocated to death.

The three of them were about to leave with their noses pinched when they heard a series of clattering footsteps coming towards this place.

Tang Liang was quick-witted and quick-handed. He grabbed one of his men and squatted behind a bush.

I heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, accompanied by the sound of talking.

A few people walked up to Tang Liang and the other two, and through the bushes, they began to rip open their sweat towels. The sound of water being flushed was accompanied by their chatter: "Should we change shifts tomorrow?"

Another person echoed: "That's right, I'm counting the days. Even though we're only there for a month, we might earn a year's salary."
