"I should have discussed the secret code with Wu Liang earlier!" Gu Yunru muttered to herself. Soon the agreed time came, but she still didn't hear any movement outside.
"Are you coming or not? If not, I'm going to bed..." Gu Yunru yawned and felt drowsy. Suddenly, she felt someone slowly walking towards her. The feeling was very hazy and light, just like in a dream.
She could already sense that this person was going to take the cloth bag in her hand, so she quickly slapped the table.
"Who!" Gu Yunru was shocked when she saw the man in front of her, and looked him up and down cautiously. The man was wearing a chestnut colored floral robe, with a dark colored jade belt tied around his waist. He had a pair of bright tiger eyes, a strong and sturdy body, and a hint of indifference and arrogance in his eyes. He stared at Gu Yunru intently, as if he was also full of question marks.
"Who are you? How did you get in?" Gu Yunru would certainly not have thought that the young and handsome man in front of her would be the mayor of Tao City. At the very least, he should be about the same age as the old doctor.
The tall and elegant man raised his eyebrows and looked at her and said, "Didn't they tell you? This thing should be given to me."
"You said you would give it to you, so I'll give it to you. Answer my question first. What's the next sentence after 12345?" Gu Yunru spontaneously thought of a code word and wanted him to match it, but she didn't expect that the man was completely confused.
Those cloud-like eyes were full of doubts. It must be said that this man was really gentle and elegant, with a dignified bearing, giving people a bright feeling. However, his identity was still questionable.
Gu Yunru would never hand the things over to him so easily. The man looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and raised his eyebrows slightly. "Hurry up and give me the things. Do you know that you will ruin everything?"
"Why should I give you the things? You don't even know the secret code, and you want to take the things away. Unless you step over my dead body?"
Gu Yunru was as stubborn as a child, holding the cloth bag and refusing to let him touch it.
"You! What's your name?"
"What's my name? What does it have to do with you?"
“………”
The man was completely speechless. At the same time, the old doctor and Wu Liang finally came back. Gu Yunru quickly hid behind them. "This guy, this guy wants to steal things!"
The old doctor looked at the excited Gu Yunru with a confused look on his face, then he laughed and walked to the man.
Wu Liang sighed and said, "This is the Tao City Lord Zhuge Jinyu that the old doctor and I talked about."
"What do you mean he is the city lord?"
"Yes, the city lord was ordered to take charge of a critical situation a few days ago, and he has just returned. We can stay at Zhuge's mansion for a while and then discuss important matters."
"………" Gu Yunru realized that he had been a little presumptuous just now, and hid behind Wu Liang, fearing that he would be reprimanded by this Zhuge Whale. However, this name was quite nice, and it really lived up to his name! "Brother Whale, no, City Lord Zhuge was very offensive just now, please forgive me."
Gu Yunru smiled at him flatteringly, but Zhuge Jinyu did not show any expression. Instead, he spread out the cloth bag on the table.
"What on earth is in here?" Gu Yunru thought that she was a member of Zoroastrianism after all, but her understanding of Zoroastrianism was very little.
"You don't understand that this concerns the fate of the entire Zoroastrianism."
"The situation in the court has begun to reverse again." Zhuge Jinyu didn't know what he was talking about. The two grown men suddenly became weird. Gu Yunru felt like an outsider. He continued his business with his old friend while drinking a few sips of wine and eating a bowl of peanuts.
"Girl, you seem to be worried."
Gu Yunru didn't realize where the source of the speech came from. She didn't expect that the old doctor could actually speak Chinese.
"Oh my god, old doctor, you can actually speak the Central Plains dialect now."
It was as shocking as discovering a new world.
"I've been with you guys for a long time, so I'm naturally influenced by you."
I didn't expect that the old doctor could speak such standard Chinese. Now I finally have a reason to ask him for advice.
"Old doctor, after you treated my Ah Zhao last time, do you need to clear the toxins according to the schedule next time?" What Gu Yunru was worried about was that Rong Zhen couldn't find her and what hardships he had encountered in the meantime. If she was not by his side, what would Rong Zhen do?
"Don't worry. From what I've observed over this period of time, there will be no problem as long as you don't use your internal energy."

"oh."
The scene changed, Nangong Ruowei found several uncles and uncles who had a good relationship with her father before, but she didn't expect that they would be kicked out with various reasons before they even stepped into the door. What is the fickleness of the world? Nangong Ruowei now deeply understood, sitting in the corner of the alley, hugging her knees and crying, even the little beggars passing by could bully her at will.
"Go away." Rong Zhen drove the group of little beggars aside. To add insult to injury, for some people, this is the best way to balance their life.
Seeing Nangong Ruowei change from a well-off young lady to a passerby despised by everyone, Rong Zhen felt a little guilty.
"A Zhao, you are a member of the Zoroastrianism, so you must know several elders of the Zoroastrianism. Can you take me to meet them? I want to ask them to avenge my father."
This idea suddenly popped up in Nangong Ruowei's mind, and she excitedly grabbed Rong Zhen's arm, but Rong Zhen looked at her with embarrassment and slowly pushed her hand away. At this time, he heard the footsteps of soldiers nearby, and Rong Zhen suddenly had an idea and quickly took her to a nearby ruined temple.
"A Zhao..." Nangong Ruowei was so frightened when she saw so many dead bodies in this dilapidated temple that her face turned pale and she stuck closely behind him.
"If you still insist on avenging your father, your fate will be no different from these people." Rong Zhen had long seen through what these people were thinking. Nangong Ruowei frowned painfully and shrank to one side and said, "Could it be that those soldiers were all trying to arrest me? Did those people sell my information to them?"
"What else is there besides this?" Rong Zhen couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that Miss Nangong was really missing a thread in her brain. She used to be a phoenix high and mighty. If Sima Bo and his gang of vulgar people knew how down and out she was, they would definitely bully her.
"A Zhao, take me to meet the Zoroastrians." Nangong Ruowei gritted her teeth and stood up. She couldn't be defeated by those people. She must cheer up and avenge her father. No matter what the outcome was, she would gladly accept it.
