Apart from Dong Ao, Gu Haoran was also fearful to them.
It's just that Gu Haoran acts erratically and has no fixed address. He says he is a part of the old street. In fact, he only occasionally runs a fortune-telling stall at the end of the street. On weekdays, he is completely wandering around.
But after hearing Su Cai's words, Lu Xianzhi understood why Gu Haoran didn't show up here tonight. It was probably the old man who had spoken, or maybe Gu Haoran had deduced some clues and concluded that Mrs. Lu was not in danger.
With this thought, Lu Xianzhi couldn't help but smile bitterly again.
"It turns out that we were just two self-righteous idiots from the beginning to the end."
Shaking his head, Lu Xianzhi took the chessboard from the young man's hand with great dismay, and said calmly: "Miss Su, please... also tell the old man that Lu is grateful for his care over the years, and now he has committed a major crime. Wrong, I broke the rules, and I really have no shame in continuing to live in the old street. From now on... Lv will never set foot on the old street again."
Su Cai looked at him quietly, neither saying anything to persuade him to stay, nor having any intention of agreeing.
Lu Xianzhi seemed to be used to Su Cai's style. He laughed at himself and led the young man into hiding into the long night.
Xiang Rong was silent for a moment and whispered: "I will go to the hospital to apologize tomorrow."
"No need, grandpa said, we are all neighbors, it is inevitable that we will bump into each other. We are all here by fate. Whether we go or stay, there is no need to force it."
Su Cai said softly, then looked around and said with a smile: "It's the damaged streets and buildings that I have to trouble Shopkeeper Xiang to repair."
"That's natural."
Xiang Rong agreed hurriedly and felt relieved at the same time.
After all, he is not as free and easy as Lu Xianzhi. If he leaves the old street, a weapon refiner like him who does not care about refining weapons is afraid that a powerful person will come to his door immediately. In addition, he offended many people in order to snatch the materials. Among them were many scary guys like Mu Hongxiu. Without the protection of the old man in the medical center, Xiang Rong knew that he would die soon.
So when Su Cai said these words, Xiang Rong felt confident.
Su Cai could naturally see his worry, so he just smiled slightly without revealing it, nodded and said goodbye to Xiang Rong.
After returning to the hospital, he saw the old man standing in the yard wearing a single coat. Su Cai scolded: "Grandpa, are you secretly drinking again?"
The old man was still feeling a bit sad, but Su Cai's words broke his sigh, and he said awkwardly: "Is it so obvious?"
"You can't hide the smell of alcohol."
Su Cai stared at the old man for a moment, and finally decided not to argue with him, "It's just this once, it won't happen next time."
"As expected, Xiaocai still feels sorry for me, an old man."
The old man immediately beamed with joy and sighed: "Those two idiots... must be very unconvinced."
Su Cai shook his head and did not tell the old man about Lu Xianzhi's departure.
But the old man had known about this for a long time, and said with a faint smile: "Lv Xianzhi left his mind a long time ago. Jing Chi's actions stimulated him to a certain extent. So he would leave, old man, I am not surprised at all. On the contrary, Xiang Rong This boy, the arrogant weapon refiner back then, has now turned into a rotten person who lives an ignoble existence and fishes for fame, which really makes me feel a little heartbroken."
"Grandpa, since you don't want to see them kill each other, why don't you take action as soon as possible?"
Su Cai thought for a while and finally expressed his doubts.
The old man was stunned for a moment, then said: "If I take action, they won't know what awe is."
"A warrior's power comes from heaven and earth, so he should fear heaven and earth."
"The sword of the Deer Clan is just a son of luck born in this world through the hands of several generations of the Deer Clan. It involves a lot, so Gu Haoran, a little cunning guy, dare not have anything to do with that female doll. These two idiots, Lu Xianzhi and Xiang Rong, actually want to interfere with it. If they are not allowed to think clearly, they will be liquidated by the Dao in the future."
When the old man said this, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and laughed at himself: "Sure enough, people will miss the past when they get old. Although those two guys are a little stupid, they have been neighbors for many years, and I really don't want to see them seek death."
While he was talking, the old man noticed that Su Cai had stopped moving, and turned his head strangely, only to see her walking out of the hospital, holding a wine bottle in her hand.
Seeing the half-smiling expression on Su Cai's face, the old man choked and his whole face turned red, "You... you are cheating!"
"When dealing with a shameless person, you have to be even more shameless than him. Isn't this what Grandpa has always taught me?" Su Cai shook the wine bottle in his hand, "It seems that Grandpa, all your hidden goods are here."
"Confiscated."
As Su Cai took the pot of wine away, the old man's eyes lost their sparkle and he said dejectedly: "I can't live this day..."
…
"How are you preparing?"
Early in the morning, Ge Xinyue called the remaining female guards in the mansion.
"Manager Ge, everything is ready. When the time comes, we will leave the imperial capital first, and we will meet at the next state capital."
A female guard replied.
Ge Xinyue nodded, glanced at everyone, and said calmly: "You may encounter some dangers here, I won't say anything more, please be careful."
"Don't worry, Manager Ge."
"We got it."
After receiving a positive answer, Ge Xinyue asked them to prepare to set off.
Just as the guards turned around, they happened to meet Lu Li who was looking for Ge Xinyue.
"Good morning, Mr. Lu."
"I've met Mr. Lu."
They all greeted Lu Li and looked at him with curious eyes.
They were still very curious about the newly appointed foreign affairs manager in the government. However, Lu Li didn't stay in the mansion most of the time, nor did he stay in Dongyuan. It was really difficult for the guards in the mansion to see him.
"Good morning, what are you doing here?"
Lu Li waved to the group of 'Yingying Yanyan' and couldn't help but ask when he saw that they looked fully armed.
A group of female guards suddenly laughed, their gazes making Lu Li's scalp tingle.
Ge Xinyue walked out, frowned and said, "Go do something."
Then he drove away the group of female guards, and then looked at Lu Li and said, "His Royal Highness is returning to Yanzhou today. To be on the safe side, I have arranged for some guards to leave in batches. If anyone has evil intentions, it can also be used to confuse some people." effect."
Hearing this, Lu Li turned his head and looked at the group of female guards who were walking lightly, and couldn't help but said: "Isn't this just using them as bait?"
"This is your duty as a guard of Prince Yan's Mansion." Ge Xinyue noticed the implication of Lu Li's words, her tone was calm, and she changed the subject: "What do you want from me?"
"Nothing, just wanted to ask when we are leaving."
Lu Li shook his head and did not get too entangled in Xin Yue's actions.
In Ge Xinyue's eyes, no matter how many lives there are, they are not worth a single hair of Mu Hongxiu's. Now that Mu Hongxiu's cultivation has been abolished, there is nothing wrong with making such an arrangement for the sake of safety.
"Prince Yan and Princess are still preparing, you..." Ge Xinyue originally wanted Lu Li to help, but suddenly thought that Lu Li was a man after all, and it would be inappropriate to disturb him at this time, so he hesitated when he spoke. , then said: "If you have some free time, why not help me sort out the things in the house."
Lu Li said: "Is there anything else in the house that needs to be taken away?"
"The palace's treasury is protected by formations, so there is no need to worry. But other properties and important documents cannot be left here."
Ge Xinyue said something and led the way, and Lu Li followed naturally.
As if taking a leisurely stroll, the two of them went to the warehouse of Prince Yan's Mansion, and then went to Mu Hongxiu's usual 'office' place, where they sorted out all the important documents and took them away.
After doing all this, Ge Xinyue stopped and said calmly: "You should come to me if you have something to say."
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from Sister Ge." Seeing that Ge Xinyue saw through his little trick, Lu Li smiled awkwardly, then rubbed his hands and said, "Didn't I spend some money at the house before?"
"A little money?"
Ge Xinyue glanced at Lu Li, with a hint of murderous intent in her tone, "A whole box of jade coins turned into a little money in your mouth?"
