Chapter 36: Gan Ying's entanglement, careful assassination!(1/2)
Although Xinye is a county town, it is not small in scale. It also divides the city into four areas according to the regulations of the county town and the government city.
The group entered the county town and the first stop was to visit Wuhou Temple.
The scale of Xinye Wuhou Temple is quite large, and it can even be compared with the Wuhou Temple in Longzhong, Deng County, Nanyang County.
In the main hall in the ancestral hall, there are stone statues of Zhuge Wuhou, feathered clothes, crane cloaks, a strip of silk, folding fans, and long beards floating, which is exactly the same as the image of Mr. Wolong in the Three Kingdoms in the history of the earth.
Gan Ying and four others were all disciples of Wolong Academy. At this moment, they entered the Wuhou Temple, and naturally they respectfully kowtowed and burned incense under the statue of the main hall, and then they looked at them in the ancestral hall in a regular manner.
Yang Zheng also admired Wu Hou from the bottom of his heart, so he also learned from them and worshiped incense together.
There are many views to see in the ancestral hall. After all, this place was the first battle between Wuhou and Liu Shu at that time. It also collected many old things from Liu, Guan and Zhang and the other three, as well as some strategic sand tables and gadgets left by Wuhou.
After visiting everywhere, it was noon.
When he walked out of the ancestral hall, Yang Zheng glanced around a few times. He saw a restaurant with a crowded city not far away and said with a smile: "I heard that the 'Wuhou Saucer' and 'Hanhua Wine' here are very famous. If you don't try it, you always feel a little regretful. Are you here together?"
"Okay! Since Brother Yang wants to taste the delicious food in Nanyang, this meal should be the host for me. Please ask Brother Yang to taste the flavor of Nanyang."
I realized that I was familiar with Yang Zheng, so Tang Yu quickly intervened.
Gan Ying, who was beside him, wiped her forehead and glanced at Yang Zheng with some depression.
One morning, Yang Zheng either took an enthusiastic look at the old things in the ancestral hall or talked to his two senior brothers, but never said a word to her. This made Gan Ying, who has always been the focus of others, feel quite disappointed.
Even the two senior brothers who always like to please him changed their temperament and kept sticking to Yang Zheng, talking endlessly about the old things about Wuhou, leaving her aside.
"What's so great! Humph, I'm going to be a disciple of the saint. Look, I'm all a disciple who is tempted by the flames and possessed the power!"
Gan Ying couldn't help but complain in her heart, but her feet honestly betrayed her, and followed Yang Zheng to the restaurant with all her steps.
Several people entered the restaurant. When the waiter saw the appearance of the visitor, he immediately knew that the noble man had arrived. He hurriedly greeted him and put the few people in the elegant seat upstairs.
Tang Yu's family is well-off and wants to show the host's style, he is willing to pay money and carefully order a large table of representative food in Nanyang. Of course, the focus is on the "Wuhou Sauce" and "Hanhua Wine" that Yang Zheng wants to eat and drink.
Since gathering Wu Po, Yang Zheng's appetite has become wide open. He is a straightforward person and will not be polite to anyone. He immediately opened his mouth and ate it. After a meal, he ate ten bowls of sauce and the others stopped. It was still a shocking look at Gan Ying and the others. Otherwise, he felt that it would be fine to have another ten bowls.
Dugu Hui and Gu Gaofeng didn't eat much and kept paying attention to the surroundings.
After settled the meal and walked out of the restaurant, Gu Gaofeng suddenly used his spiritual sense to transmit his voice to Yang Zheng that they might have been targeted by a group of killers of unknown origin!
"Are you finally unable to help it?"
When Yang Zheng heard the news, he sneered secretly.
In fact, since he entered Shinno Castle, he felt something was wrong, but since he had never found any trace of the killer, he continued to wander around the city without hesitation.
Dugu Hui and Gu Gaofeng were indeed old and noticed the enemy.
"Your Highness, should you leave or stay?"
Dugu Hui used the message to secretly ask Yang Zheng for advice.
"Keep!"
Yang Zheng said lightly.
The two nodded quietly. If the boat was abandoned and it was time to walk on the dry road, the other party would definitely follow behind and chase after him, and it might not be able to get rid of it. It would be better to prepare first and wait and see what happened.
"You guys, Yang has had a great time today, thank you very much. If you have time to come to the capital, you must enjoy the palace and let Yang be a host. Please ask everyone. Yang remembers that there are still some things to deal with, so let me leave now!"
Yang Zheng bowed to Tang Yu and others.
"Brother Yang is so polite!"
"That's right, everyone is a scholar, so it's up to you. If you go to the capital, I hope the prince will not bother you!"
Tang Yu and Yu Lingxiu smiled and returned the gifts.
"Goodbye!"
"Brother Yang (the prince) walk slowly!"
At the city gate, Yang Zheng, with Dugu Hui and the other three, walked quickly towards the ferry head.
Gan Ying stared at Yang Zheng's back with a resentful look on his face.
"Damn it, he must have done it on purpose!"
When Yang Zheng left, not only did he not say goodbye to her, but he didn’t even look at her. It was so rude and so hateful!
No, I must ask him in person why I treat me like this. Are you still holding a grudge against that?
In fact, after returning from Nanhu that day, Gan Ying remembered something related to Yang Zheng.
Two years ago, she disguised herself as a man and attended the Wolong Cultural Conference, surpassing the heroes at the conference and taking the lead. Then she became a disciple of Mr. Shen, and her daughter's identity was also exposed, attracting countless young talents.
It was at that time that a thin scholar of his age blocked her way in the academy and wrote her a young poem, which was vaguely filled with love for him.
At that time, there were too many scholars who loved him like the little scholar. She didn't take it seriously at all. She even confiscated the poems, and even left without saying a word.
Not long after, someone from the family sent a letter saying that Yang Zheng, who was from the Yang family, had been married to her, visited her again and again, wanting to see her.
Gan Ying found out after inquiring about it that the young scholar was Yang Zheng. He suddenly felt that he was very hateful and could not be courted, so he actually wanted to use his power to suppress her. In anger, he invited several senior brothers and sisters to the capital, found Duke Jin, and retired from the marriage.
Thinking about it now, I did something wrong at that time. I didn’t understand the situation and did this recklessly. It was hard to imagine what kind of blow and harm this incident caused to Yang Zheng at that time.
But this lady didn't mean it, she was such a stingy man!
"Two senior brothers, Senior Sister Ye, and my younger sister have been away from home for many days. Suddenly, I miss homesick. Let's leave here!"
Gan Ying bowed to Tang Yu, Yu Lingxiu and the girl in green, and rushed towards the ferry head quickly.
Tang Yu and the other two returned from studying abroad. They met Gan Ying by chance during the suspension of Xinye. They had gained a lot of money when they were asked about teaching with Gan Ying these days. They wanted to stay there for a few days before returning home, but they didn't expect Gan Ying to leave suddenly, so they naturally felt embarrassed to force it.
The girl in green is in Xinye County, so she waved to Gan Ying.
"Take care, junior sister, all the way is smooth!"
Tang Yu and the other two were very self-aware. They knew that Gan Ying was a top-notch existence in the Confucian sect, both in appearance and talent, and they were not able to cling to them, so they had no intention of entanglement.
It's just afternoon now, and most business trips eat in the city, and there are not many pedestrians on the road.
Yang Zheng and four others were walking towards the ferry head, and Gan Ying's cry came from behind.
"Yang Zheng, wait!"
Yang Zheng turned his head and frowned and looked at Gan Ying who was running over.
Yang Dahai stood by with a smile, looking at Gan Ying.
Dugu Hui and Gu Gaofeng looked calm, one looked at the Dutou and the other looked around.
"Is there something wrong?"
When Gan Ying got closer, Yang Zheng glanced at her faintly and said.
"Aren't you going to Nanyang? I'm going to go home too. I wonder if it's not convenient for me to take you?"
Gan Ying played with a strand of hair and said with a smile.
The merchant ships Yang Zheng and the others were on were a certain number. The four of them had only two cabins. Yang Zheng occupied one alone, and Yang Dahai and the others were crowded in the other.
"inconvenient."
Yang Zheng refused without hesitation.
"You are still holding a grudge against the incident two years ago, right? I said you are the one who has not understood you at the time, okay? It wasn't intentional. Are you really so stingy?"
Gan Ying said with a grievance.
"Don't worry, I've forgotten that thing. It's really inconvenient for me now, so you'd better take another merchant ship, sorry."
Yang Zheng shook his head. He couldn't explain some things to Gan Ying, so he simply ignored her and walked straight to the ferry head quickly.
Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel a little surprised after waiting on the boat.
But he would not relax his vigilance. After discussing with the three of them secretly, Yang Zheng returned to the cabin, sat cross-legged on the bedboard of the cabin, closed his eyes and started practicing.
Gan Ying stomped her feet and stared at Yang Zheng's back with anger on his face. Until he disappeared from boarding the ship, he turned his eyes and quietly cast his spells. He slipped to the merchant ship without anyone paying attention.
At night, Yang Zheng suddenly opened his eyes.
The three people in the cabin next to him were suddenly awakened, quietly opened a gap in the cabin door and looked out.
After seeing the figure standing at Yang Zheng’s cabin door, the three of them suddenly became extremely strange. They quietly shrank their heads back and went back to bed to continue resting.
When Yang Zheng saw Gan Ying at the door, he looked speechless.
"I said why are you like a ghost and you are still pestering me? What do you want to do?!"
"I, I just want to go home!"
Gan Ying bit her tender red lips and said in a low voice.
"If you want to go home, can't you take any boat? Why do you have to pester me in a lingering way? I said Miss Gan, you are the only daughter's house. Don't you think it's a problem to enter the single man's room in the middle of the night?"
Yang Zheng said helplessly.
Gan Ying simply didn't say anything, just stared at Yang Zheng with big watery eyes.
Outside the aisle, a slight sound of footsteps came.
Yang Zheng made way open the door speechlessly.
