No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 812 Who put the little girl on my bed? (Monthly ticket requested!)

After experiencing that thunderbolt, the white sturgeon seemed to have shed its skin and flesh, which grew back to cover the blood-bronze body inside.

The newly grown snow-white scales emit a faint white glow in the dark night.

The bright white light was particularly obvious in the dark inner room, like a solitary lamp in a dark room, reflecting the figure of the girl behind the bed curtains directly on the wall inside the bed.

Perhaps mistaking the gaze of its male owner for encouragement, the white sturgeon simply wagged its tail and turned around, circling in the air in front of the bed in a somewhat joyous manner, and did not move away...

From the perspective of the desk in the outer room, one can clearly see the girl with her knees bent on the bed, wearing a relatively thin nightgown.

Small and delicate, huddled in the corner.

It's the middle of the night, a man and a woman are alone, and there's this scene on the bed. You can guess what it means just by thinking with your toe.

Qin Ying looked at the silhouette of the girl on the bed, then looked at Ouyang Rong's face next to him, frowning and speaking with a strange tone:

"Ouyang Lianghan, are you... hiding a beautiful woman in your golden house?"

Ouyang Rong kept his head tilted, looking at the happy white sturgeon with his mouth slightly open, as if he didn't hear Qin Ying talking.

Qin Ying looked at him with a complicated look.

Behind the curtain, Rong Zhen's face was burning hot and she felt extremely ashamed.

At this moment, her eyes were wide open, and she stared at the stupid fish swinging outside with an almost murderous look.

Like Ouyang Rong, I can’t wait to grill it tonight.

Rong Zhen had never experienced such a shameful scene before.

Even though she was shocked when Yi Qianqiu called her "young couple" that day in Xunyang Grottoes, she quickly adjusted herself and returned to her angry expression.

However, at this moment, as cold and proud as she was, she was blocked on the man's bed by a silly fish and Qin Ying.

How else could one explain her running to the man's room in the middle of the night? Getting on his bed? You couldn't say she got lost... Or did she wake up and find herself here, then slap Ouyang Lianghan and denounce him as a hypocrite and a pervert?
This time, there is no way to wash yourself clean even if you jump into the Yellow River.

Rong Zhen thought about it carefully and found that even if Qin Ying had just arrived and found her in Ouyang Lianghan's room, it didn't seem to be a shameful thing. At most, she would have to explain a few words, which was a bit embarrassing.

After all, didn't Qin Ying come to Ouyang Lianghan's room in the middle of the night? They were both unmarried girls, so why couldn't she do the same?

It was just that Rong Zhen subconsciously wanted to maintain the image of a dignified and noble female official at the time. There was also another idea that she did not admit in her heart, which was to hear why Qin Ying came to find Ouyang Lianghan in the middle of the night. This started from a kind of faint hostility buried deep in her heart as a woman.

Just now, when Rong Zhen was hiding behind the bed in the inner room and heard Qin Ying correct Ouyang Lianghan's address and told him to just call her by her name, a sneer appeared on his stern face...

In any case, she just wanted to find a place in the house to hide temporarily.

It doesn't matter whether it is a bed or not, I just hide inside subconsciously. Maybe I have a subconscious desire to explore where the man sleeps, so I chose this place. But it is definitely not subjective, it's just... just a coincidence.

However, at this moment, trapped here by a woman and a fish, with everything silent, Rong Zhen suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter.

The etiquette and religious rules she had been exposed to since childhood made her very clear that this was what the mainstream of that era considered obscene.

On the bed, Rong Zhen's whole body was burning hot, he was stiff and speechless, and he was almost dead.

To make matters worse, she saw through the curtains that Qin Ying, who was standing by the desk, seemed to have been waiting for Ouyang Rong for a while. Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, she quickly approached and took the initiative to walk towards the bed, saying as she walked:
"I've been eavesdropping for a long time, why didn't you say anything..."

Just then, a "bang" sound came from behind.

Qin Ying stopped and looked back curiously, and saw Ouyang Rong suddenly throw a small bag on the table, then slap the table with a "bang", and the bowl of fish soup on the table shook.

He looked dissatisfied and shouted:

"This cunning county magistrate is getting more and more outrageous. He stuffed everything into my room. First it was fish soup, then a valuable gift. Now he's even hiding something... It's really outrageous!"

Qin Ying: ...

Rong Zhen:......

The air in the room was silent for a while.

Qin Ying looked at Ouyang Rong's somewhat angry face, then turned back and looked at the silhouette of the girl on the other side of the bed.

Rong Zhen couldn't describe her mood at this moment. She didn't know what she was thinking. She reached out her hand and picked up a wooden pipa beside the pillow. It seemed that the old musician had given it to Ouyang Rong... She held the pipa in her arms and lowered her head reluctantly.

This scene, seen through the curtain, gave the look of a poor young girl holding a pipa and half-covering her face. Combined with her petite and lovely figure with her knees hugged, it was really pitiful.

Qin Ying moved her eyes away and asked:

"So... you don't know Ouyang Lianghan either?"

Ouyang Rong did not answer, but only sighed.

At some point, his palm had already drawn a Kuixing Talisman blindly and threw it out of the window.

The white sturgeon hovering beside the bed in the inner room turned around like a cat seeing a fish, and swam past Ouyang Rong, out of the window, and went to look for the talisman.

The bright white light disappeared, and naturally the silhouette of the "poor devoted girl" on the bed in the inner room could no longer be seen.

"Let's go out first. It's a good opportunity to go to the county government office and see what Magistrate Diao is doing."

Ouyang Rong suggested seriously.

Qin Ying hesitated for a moment, withdrew her gaze from the bed in the inner room, and nodded.

"Well, let's go."

On the bed in the inner room, Rong Zhen, who had been holding his breath, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ouyang Rong turned off the lights and went out.

However, when Qin Ying walked into the yard, she looked back and saw that the young man in Confucian robes took off his Confucian robe jacket and put it on the table outside the curtain in the inner room before leaving the house. Then he turned around and continued to leave.

Qin Ying pursed her lips, slightly moved.

The lights in the house went out and the two left one after another.

On the bed, Rong Zhen listened attentively and heard the sound of the two people walking away, and some fragments of words came:

"Ouyang Lianghan, you are so considerate to others. It is well known that you are not interested in women, but your subordinates are so reckless, and you are still magnanimous. You treat the girl with care, fearing to hurt her self-esteem... I think that the girl on the bed may have come voluntarily when she knew it was you. She must admire you. Why don't you go back and tell her not to hurt her feelings, and persuade her not to have any more fantasies..."

Qin Ying suggested.

Ouyang Rong stood with his hands behind his back, saying nothing, and just walked...

Inside the house, Rong Zhen's face was stunned for a moment, then she suddenly opened the curtain, dropped her pipa, and ran out barefoot.

When I ran to the door, Ouyang Rong and Qin Ying had already walked away.

The yard was empty.

The only one left by the door was a cold-faced young girl with messy black hair.

……

The next morning, dewdrops were still hanging on the branches.

Penglang Ferry.

An official ship, about to sail south to Raozhou, temporarily stopped at the port.

The group was divided into two fleets.

Ouyang Rong, Rong Zhen and Qin Ying led fifty lightly armed soldiers into battle.

Qin Yanqing led the remaining soldiers to follow behind. There were more people and their speed was slightly slower.

Qin Ying and Qin Yanqing were boarding the ship under the command of their subordinates.

A young girl in palace dress with an angelic appearance passed by them.

"Madam..."

Qin Ying paused and noticed that Ms. Rong Zhen's face looked a little bad. She walked past her coldly without saying anything.

Ouyang Rong was checking the waterway map on the deck.

Rong Zhen walked up to him.

Stand shoulder to shoulder.

The lady gathered her sleeves, looked straight ahead, and said nothing.

Ouyang Rong didn't turn around, but looked down at the map. Rong Zhen was the first to move.

She slowly turned her head and looked at him.

The air became quiet.

Fortunately, footsteps were heard from behind, breaking the atmosphere.

It was the footsteps of Qin Ying and County Magistrate Diao.

Magistrate Diao must have just arrived and rushed over to see someone off.

Qin Ying's voice was somewhat dissatisfied:
"County Magistrate Diao, did you prepare all the things in Governor Ouyang's yard?"

"Yeah, that's right."

Magistrate Diao had dark circles under his eyes, as if he had not slept all night, and he nodded hurriedly.

Qin Ying frowned:

"Pay attention. It's a critical moment. We are racing against time. You are still trying to curry favor with him. Delaying Governor Ouyang for even a minute or a second will be a serious offense."

Magistrate Diao was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and said to Ouyang Rong with concern:

"Mingfu, I've prepared the fish soup for you. Did you have an upset stomach after eating it?"

Just as Ouyang Rong was about to speak, a voice from the side answered:
"The soup is very good. I have tasted it. You are very thoughtful."

Rong Zhen's cold expression softened at some point. Ouyang Rong and Qin Ying saw that she looked calm and raised her head and asked:

"By the way, what's your name? Tell me again. I'm sorry, I can't remember it clearly."

County Magistrate Diao was delighted and his tiredness disappeared.

"It's okay, it's okay. Madam, you tend to forget things. My surname is Diao and my given name is..."

Magistrate Diao quickly gave the name, and Rong Zhen nodded slightly, as if he remembered it.

Qin Ying frowned slightly and wanted to say:

"It's not just the soup, Madam, you don't know..."

"All right."

Ouyang Rong waved his hand, just in time to interrupt Qin Ying's words, and said to Rong Zhen, who snorted and looked sideways, and Magistrate Diao, who looked straight ahead:

"It's time. The ship is about to leave. We can't delay."

He patted Magistrate Diao on the shoulder and left a few words:

"You have done your best, keep up the good work."

Magistrate Diao breathed a sigh of relief, then his brows lit up with joy and he got off the boat and left.

As the waves of the river crashed, the official ship slowly started moving.

Magistrate Diao, along with his subordinates including the county lieutenant and the county magistrate, waved goodbye vigorously on the shore.

Qin Ying couldn't help but look at the other side. He stepped forward with his sword and shouted to Magistrate Diao on the shore:
"If the girl you hid on the couch is from a good family, comfort her. If she has any intentions because of your promise, make her give up completely. Don't let her talk nonsense outside and ruin the reputation of Governor Ouyang. I can testify that nothing happened!"

The words echoed on the shore.

Magistrate Diao was startled and looked around subconsciously:

"Little girl, what little girl..."

Seeing this, the surrounding county lieutenants, county magistrates and other trusted subordinates all shook their heads:
"Report to the county magistrate, we have absolutely no arrangements. Everyone knows that the governor is a gentleman. How could he flatter him and make random arrangements? Isn't this making things uncomfortable?"

Magistrate Diao lowered his head and thought for a moment, then his expression suddenly changed.

The county magistrate asked cautiously and concernedly: "Sir, what's wrong with you..."

Magistrate Diao suddenly patted his chest and said loudly:
"That's right, it was arranged by me. It was a young lady who delivered fish soup. Yes, that's right. I was so busy that I almost forgot about it. Oh, I'm so stupid. I'm not as smart as you. How could I use this to test the governor? In fact, it wasn't intentional. It was just to deliver fish soup. I guess the young lady herself is ignorant. But you see, didn't I fail? The governor remained calm when the situation was so bad. He is really a role model for our generation!"

No one noticed anything wrong and said yes.

County Magistrate Diao finally got his way and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he secretly glanced at the official ship that was gradually disappearing in the distance, and the cold and arrogant figure of the girl in palace dress vaguely visible on it.

Only four words echoed in my heart:

I drop well.

The Governor is indeed a role model for our generation!
Magistrate Diao's face was filled with reverence.

Meanwhile, on deck.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Qin Ying, who had left a word, realized something vaguely. She turned around and found that Rong Zhen had disappeared.

"Governor Ouyang, where is the Lady Historian?"

Ouyang Rong turned around and walked towards the cabin:

"Maybe he's in a bad mood."

Before Qin Ying could ask more questions, he had already left.

Ouyang Rong walked into a spacious and private cabin, closed the door tightly, and walked to the luggage rack.

On the shelf, there was a cloth bag as long as an adult man's arm, which seemed to contain a scroll.

This is all Ouyang Rong’s luggage.

All the things were put into the Peach Blossom Spring picture.

Compared to the heavy sword case, it is easier and faster to carry only a bronze scroll.

"Does she like you? Is she trying to please me?"

Rong Zhen's voice suddenly came.

Ouyang Rong did not look back.

It was as if he had known that Lady His Majesty was in the room, but he had not looked at her since he entered the room. He just walked over silently to check the Peach Blossom Spring painting.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Ouyang Rong shook his head and walked straight away.

Rong Zhenzhen stood by the bed and waited, and asked angrily:

"Why don't you just say it's me? It's nothing big."

Ouyang Rong nodded in agreement: "I do want to, but you were the one who hid first last night, and I didn't have time to stop you. Why do I feel like you were the most panicked."

Rong Zhen lowered his head slightly and remained quiet for a while.

She first raised her head and glared at Ouyang Rong, "You wish, this way I will give you a good deal."

After a pause, he said hesitantly:
"Well, I am different from the embroiderer. I must have a legitimate status and cannot be so muddle-headed. I must stand beside you with dignity and no one can point fingers at me. In fact, some of what the Qin family girl said is true. I am definitely not the kind of bitch she described me as, the slutty bitch that everyone despises. I am definitely not."

The girl in palace dress raised her delicate chin and couldn't help but emphasize it again.

Ouyang Rong pursed his lips and nodded. Then he remembered something, took out a small bag, and gestured to her:
"What's going on? Are you really going to send me..."

Rong Zhen suddenly interrupted and started talking about business:
"I heard what you discussed with Qin Ying last night. Your worries are not unreasonable. As far as I know, Li Congshan doesn't really listen to Yi Qianqiu. The Qi Refining Technique he has mastered is very unique and can track the enemy. It is the most effective scout talent. This may be related to Qiu Shenji's master-disciple relationship... In short, this group of White Tiger Guards may indeed put the palace to death."

Ouyang Rong narrowed his eyes.

Rong Zhen turned away and said softly:

"I will go with you to find Li Congshan, Miaozhen and the others. I will come to help! With me here, let's see if they dare to kill people wantonly to silence them."

Ouyang Rong was slightly startled, and took a closer look at the noble lady from the Wei family in front of him who was trying hard to bend her elbow.
