Chapter 97 Nanting's Conspiracy

「I’m going to the Cangmang River.」

After Ruan Youqing said these words, his eyes were extremely firm.

Sighing softly, Gu Changan knew he couldn't stop her.

He reached out and touched the top of her head. At this time, Gu Changan was very gentle: "But... I can't go with you."

The current situation is not suitable for the love of children.

Although he really wanted to go with her, but now...he couldn't leave.

Cangmangjiang needs Ruan Youqing, and Jingbian City needs him, Gu Changan.

Although the two places are only an hour apart...

But... It's hard to sleep if you don't see each other.

Ruan Youqing raised his hand and grasped the big hand that was resting on top of his head, and crossed his hands. Ruan Youqing's resolute expression just now turned into tenderness after meeting Gu Changan's eyes:

"Don't worry, I will take good care of myself."

"Me too."

After the words fell, the two of them didn't dare to say anything more, Ruan Youqing gave him another serious look, then turned and left.

After Ruan Youqing left with the fan, Gu Changan's gentle expression disappeared instantly.

"What is the master's order?" A black shadow suddenly appeared beside Gu Changan. This black shadow is Tian Wen, the dark guard who has never shown up beside him.

Gu Chang'an secretly has four capable subordinates, named Tian Wen, Gan Gu, Di Ming, and Zhi Sen. And although these four people secretly identities are Gu Chang'an's subordinates, in fact, each of them has other identities of their own.

For example, Zhi Sen...is the scholar Bai Lian who sold his food in Wuyun City earlier. Bai Lian was just his pseudonym.

"Follow me out of the city to Yizhuang." Gu Changan said with a cold face.

Tianwen was a little surprised: "You want to go there in person? These things... just do it for the subordinates."

Gu Changan is very serious: "My little fox personally instructed, so I naturally have to do it myself."

Tian asked: "..."

I think back when I was in the secret room with my master in Yunjian Pavilion, my master became very interested in this young lady of the Ruan family.

Now it seems... his master has fallen completely.

So, not long after Ruan Youqing left, Gu Changan also set off out of the city, leading people straight to Yizhuang outside the city.

As a result... When he got there, he saw a few sneaky figures under the east corner of Yizhuang.

Gu Changan's eyes darkened, and he led someone to search for it quietly.

Afterwards, he saw a few little beggars who seemed to be looking for something.

"What are you doing?" Tian Wen asked coldly.

The little beggar with a guilty conscience froze and froze in place, not daring to move.

Seeing this, Gu Changan raised his feet and walked to a place still some distance away from them to stop, narrowing his eyes, with a cold and scary expression: "What are you looking for?"

"We didn't look for the dead body!" There was a little beggar who was only seven or eight years old and his face was already pale with fright.

Originally, he was scared out of his wits by the large barren mounds, but when a group of stern-faced people appeared suddenly, he was so frightened that he spoke out without restraint.

Gu Changan hooked the corners of his lips, and sighed in his heart that children are easier to fool than adults.

Thus, the master and servant played the role of two sinister and stern villains in a tacit understanding, and the guards all kept silent with cold faces. Sure enough, these little beggars couldn't stand the intimidation, and directly stated their purpose of coming to Yizhuang without hesitation.

When Gu Changan and Tianwen heard this, they looked at each other in shock.

It turned out that someone told these little beggars that there was a dead body buried under the east wall of the righteous village. All they have to do is dig up the body and throw it there...the man will feed them forever.

For the little beggars during the famine period, this condition is undoubtedly a huge temptation.

They didn't understand anything and naturally agreed happily.

But such a seemingly simple matter, to Gu Changan and the others, it sounds like a huge conspiracy!

This corpse...is the one mentioned by the old man who worked in Yizhuang in the medical center!

If, this corpse was intentionally made by Nanting people...

The little beggars dig him out and expose him...

Gu Changan's face has completely darkened.

..

Ruan Youqing took the fan out of the city and hurried all the way to the bank of the Cangmang River.

Fortunately, when she arrived, there was no dispute as she imagined by the Cangmang River.

Everything seems to be calm.

It's just that when she wanted to continue walking, she and Fan'er were stopped by someone.

The other party was from the Ruan family army, but this person didn't know her.

"Little girl, it is forbidden to move forward here, please go back."

When Ruan Youqing was about to reveal his identity, there was someone walking slowly behind the soldier:

"Let them in, this is our Miss Ruan."

The voice is somewhat familiar, but it does not belong to Ruan Lingjun.

The person who came was Ruan Lingjun's personal bodyguard, Wuxin.

After seeing Wuxin, Ruan Youqing suddenly had a bad feeling, her heart sank suddenly, and she asked in a low voice, "Where is my brother?"

Wuxin pointed out the way, smiled and said: "Miss, the master is in the camp, and this subordinate will take you there."

Although the other party seemed to be fine, Ruan Youqing was still a little uneasy.

Sure enough, when they got to the tent, Wuxin stopped and said solemnly:

"Miss, my master...something happened."

"Is something wrong?" Ruan Youqing's brows and eyes were instantly stern.

Wuxin nodded, and continued: "You will know when you go in, but... you must keep a distance from the master, and don't take off the things you are wearing on your face."

After Ruan Youqing nodded, he ordered Fan to wait outside, while he lifted the curtain and strode in immediately.

After she walked in, she saw Ruan Lingjun sitting in front of the couch.

Ruan Lingjun didn't turn his head when he heard someone walk in, but reprimanded him in a somewhat impatient tone:

"I didn't say that, no one is allowed to enter my tent at will, unless the Nanting people attack."

"Brother." Ruan Youqing's voice was a little trembling, and she could already hear that something was wrong with Ruan Lingjun's voice.

After hearing the familiar voice, Ruan Lingjun turned around abruptly, and saw his little sister looking at him with reddened eyes, with a worried expression on her face.

"You girl... hurry up and get out!" Ruan Lingjun didn't approach her as usual, but took a few steps back in panic.

Ruan Youqing, who saw everything in his eyes, naturally understood everything.

She's still...late...

"Brother, how did you get infected by...?" Ruan Youqing asked straightforwardly.

It only took them a few hours to separate, how could it be so fast...

Ruan Lingjun saw that Ruan Youqing didn't go forward recklessly, and after he calmed down, he sighed and said, "When I just arrived, I saw a little girl crying on the bridge of the Cangmang River. Although I didn't know she was from Ningguo, I was still from Nanting, but I went there anyway. Then, in front of me...the little girl was shot to death with an arrow."

At this time, Ruan Youqing's face was covered with dark clouds.

Looking at his little sister's frown, Ruan Lingjun wanted to reach out to smooth her out, but at this moment, he could only keep his hand in the air.

The appearance of the little girl before she died could not be shaken off in his mind for a long time, and the spurted blood stained his face.

At that time, he didn't think it was wrong, but he was very puzzled why a little girl was allowed to die in front of him.

Until he came back, he found that he was not feeling well, and even started to have a low-grade fever for no reason.

He understood instantly.

This plague is a conspiracy of the people of Nanting.

And he was unfortunately recruited.
