Ma Xiaoshuai quickly raised the steel knife, and Xu Sanduo squatted behind the door with his waist bent, holding the small stool that was sitting under his buttocks in his hand.

"Bang bang..." Someone knocked on the door.

Since he knocked on the door, he must not have returned from Chengcai, and the three people in the room were silent.

"Master Gao!" Someone called out.

Gao Cheng gave him a wink, and Xu Sanduo swallowed: "Who? You are in the wrong place. We are ordinary people, not some lord!"

"I was sent by Yuan Lang to take Master Hou into the inner city!" The voice of the visitor was very low.

Gao Cheng hesitated for a moment, and nodded to Ma Xiaoshuai. Ma Xiaoshuai hid behind the door and signaled Xu Sanduo to open the door.

The door opened, and a man who looked like a Taoist came in, with a tall figure and a calm face. He glanced at Gaocheng and took out something: "This is the token that Yuan Lang gave me!"

Xu Sanduo took it and handed it to Gao Cheng. Gao Cheng recognized the arrowhead dug out from his shoulder, and looked up at the person who came: "How do we go?"

When someone came in, he didn't even look at Ma Xiaoshuai behind the door. He dropped a burden and took out two pieces of paper from his wide sleeve: "Tomorrow at noon, the Yunzhou merchants who are stranded in Wangdu will come back. You just need to hang out with it." That's it, here are the guides and clothes."

Gao Cheng took Lu Yin and looked at it. Each card was a master and a servant, and he could bring all four of them into the inner city. Gao Cheng was relieved. He was afraid that Yuan Lang would just take care of him and leave the talented Xu Sanduo behind, so Gao Cheng bowed: "Thank you sir... dare to ask sir..."

The person who came seemed to be smiling, but his eyes were light: "My surname is Tie Minglu, and I'm just a wandering Taoist!"

Gao Cheng cupped his hands: "Thank you, Mr. Tie..."

The railway didn't take it seriously, turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly turned around after walking a few steps: "Master Gao has nowhere to go in the inner city, right?" He said, still glancing at Xu Sanduo: "They are ordinary people!"

Gao Cheng frowned, he knew that if he was still with Xu Sanduo Chengcai, maybe he would really harm them, so he hesitated for a while.

The railway reached out and brushed off his cuffs, and said, "When you enter the city tomorrow, go to Zhima Hutong, and someone will take you to find a place to hide!"

"Sir, you are very kind..."

"There is no great kindness, and if Lord Gao hadn't bravely resisted He Sheath, we wouldn't have helped you either!" Tie Tie said very straightforwardly: "What's more, you and Yuan Lang are also brothers!"

"Yuan Lang, he..." Gao Cheng didn't know how to ask, but he didn't intend to continue. He cupped his hands and turned to leave.

On the second day, Gao Cheng and Ma Xiaoshuai wore decent clothes, followed by Xu Sanduo and Chengcai, and entered the inner city smoothly. When they reached the entrance of Zhima Hutong, Xu Sanduo Chengcai said goodbye to Gaocheng and Ma Xiaoshuai. Gao Cheng and Ma Xiaoshuai walked into the alley, alley It is very narrow, because it rained the day before, the stone slabs on the ground were wet, the sky was gloomy, and the light in the alley was dim. Ma Xiaoshuai looked around vigilantly: "Master, if this place is surrounded by people, we will not escape." ah!"

Gao Cheng didn't know what to do, but he was still relatively calm. He looked into the alley and said in a low voice: "If they want to catch me, there are plenty of opportunities outside the city, so don't waste so much trouble!"

Ma Xiaoshuai thinks it makes sense, and they really have nowhere to go, just as he was thinking, a person came from the depths of the alley, with a turquoise robe and a graceful figure, holding a lotus-colored paper umbrella, his face could not be seen clearly, and he approached Gaocheng , the man stopped and looked up at Gaocheng, only then did Gaocheng see the person coming, he was taken aback for a moment, at first he thought it was a fair lady, but unexpectedly it was a handsome young man.

"Master Gao?" The young man covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled lightly.

"Your Excellency is..."

"If the red building, Qinyu!"

Gao Cheng was confused, hearing the name sounded like a man in the dust, but this was clearly a man.

Ma Xiaoshuai's eyes widened: "Ruo Honglou?"

"This little brother has heard of it? Could it be that he is a regular customer?" Qin Yu teased.

Ma Xiaoshuai's face was red and green, he couldn't tell what the expression was.

Qinyu turned around and walked away, looking back with a smile: "Master Gao, come with me!"

"Where are you going?" Gao Cheng said, already following Qin Yu.

Ma Xiaoshuai hastily walked over to pull him: "Master Hou, he is..."

"What?" Gao Cheng grabbed Ma Xiaoshuai's wrist with his backhand: "Hurry up!"

Ma Xiaoshuai was dragged forward and ran two steps forward, so he had to follow Gaocheng. He looked at the person in front of him, and said in a low voice, "Master Hou, this person is probably a young lady from Ruohonglou!"

"Xiao Guan?" Gao Cheng's eyes widened, and out of the corners of his eyes he glanced at the charming man in front of him.

Ma Xiaoshuai said: "Ruohonglou is the largest Nanfeng Pavilion in Yunzhou!"

"Ah?" Gao Cheng was even more stunned: "There is still such a place in Yunzhou?"

Ma Xiaoshuai raised his forehead, looked at Qinyu who was walking non-stop, and couldn't help raising his voice: "This...brother, where are we going?"

Qinyu stopped and turned around, with a smile in her eyes: "You'll know when you go!"

Turning left and right in the alley, Qinyu stopped again, and Gao Cheng and Ma Xiaoshuai were stunned: "Ruohonglou?"

Qinyu took a look at the two of them, turned around to avoid the signboard of Ruohonglou, and walked back. Gao Cheng and Ma Xiaoshuai breathed a sigh of relief, and continued walking. When they reached the alley behind, Qinyu pushed open a wooden door: "You two, please come inside." !"

"This is..." Gao Cheng and Ma Xiaoshuai walked in. Inside the door were pavilions, towers and pavilions, flowing water and strange rocks, like a garden of a rich family.

Qinyu locked the door and turned her head: "This is the backyard of Ruohong Mansion, where we live!"

Gao Cheng and Ma Xiaoshuai were stunned, and stood stiffly in place.

Qinyu took two steps, then turned around and said, "Come with me!"

Ma Xiaoshuai's small face wrinkled into a bun: "Master Hou, this... this..."

After pondering for a while, Gao Cheng understood what Qinyu meant. He turned his head and followed, and when he came out of the garden, there were independent courtyards. To be honest, Gao Cheng was very surprised. He never thought that a Nanfeng Pavilion would occupy such a large area. People live such a luxurious life.

Qinyu led Gao Cheng into a courtyard, and Gao Cheng noticed that the word "Qinyu" was written on the plaque on the door.

Qin Yu looked back and saw Gao Cheng looking up at the words on it, and smiled lightly: "That was written by Yuan Lang!"

"Yuan Lang?" Gao Cheng looked at Qin Yu in surprise, guessing his relationship with Yuan Lang.

Qinyu pursed her lips and smiled, stopped answering, and stretched out her hand as a gesture of invitation: "It's the season of wind and rain, I have wronged Lord Gao to temporarily live in my courtyard, and I live in the first room, Lord Gao and... Mr. Yuan has already sent someone to clean up the two rooms inside the little brother’s house, please go ahead!”

Gao Cheng pushed away the room indicated by Qin Yu, and everything was tidied up very well.

Qinyu stood at the door and didn't come in, but he didn't leave, and said with a smile: "If He Xie sends people to search over, Lord Gao will inevitably suffer some humiliation!"

"Humiliation?" Ma Xiaoshuai had a bad feeling.

"For the outside world, Master Gao is the newly bought child of Ruohonglou..." Qin Yu pursed her lips and narrowed her eyes with a smile.

Gao Cheng's face turned red and white, and he didn't know what to say.

Ma Xiaoshuai exclaimed: "How did this happen? This, this, this..."

Qinyu finally couldn't help it anymore, and bent down with a smile: "Just kidding, if someone comes, I will say that Lord Gao is my guest, but there are usually no outsiders in the backyard, Lord Hou just take good care of his wounds."

It was night, Yuan Lang turned back to his room in the mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a person sitting on his bed. If he was not too familiar, the bone erosion needle in his hand would have almost been sent out.

After entering the door and lighting a candle, Yuan Lang took off his white gauze robe and handed it to the man: "If you come in sneakily, I won't be afraid that I will kill you by mistake!"

The man came out from the bed net to pick up his outer robe, and walked to the range of candle light, with a gentle and handsome face, he put the clothes on the screen casually: "If your eyesight is so poor that even I can see it wrong, you can only count me in." I don't know people clearly!"

Yuan Lang was sitting at the table, Wu Zhe had already poured the tea and handed it to him: "Hu Qitu left?"

"Just sent them out of the city, have you settled down in Gaocheng?"

"Don't worry, your confidante is a safe person!" Wu Zhe said with a hum.

Yuan Lang didn't change his face, took a sip of tea and said, "What's the matter with you here? You can't just report to me about your confidante!"

Wu Zhe frowned slightly: "Senior Brother Zhen Chu received news that he encountered resistance in Zhuozhou and assassinated Hu Fei, the prefect of Zhuozhou. He has been disguised as Hu Fei and entered Zhuozhou smoothly."
