My years as a soldier

Chapter 118 See you at Haishi

Li Zhaoshuo was extremely anxious, so much so that he felt that even the Youzhou soldier's temper had become much stronger than before in the past few days.

It wasn't until he saw Lao Luo that the anxiety he had been feeling for the past few days was finally released.

He stared at Lao Luo fiercely for more than ten seconds before he finally squeezed out three words from his lips.

"How about it?"

"I've found him. Mr. Li, you have a strange look in your eyes, please forgive me."

"Since he found it, what did he say?"

Li Zhaoshuo couldn't wait any longer, his expression changed instantly.

"He didn't say anything."

"You didn't say anything?"

"Uh... If you want to talk about it in detail, he thinks that I brought too little."

Hearing this, Li Zhaoshuo's eyes lit up, and his whole body became lively.

"That means you have found the wrong person! Lao Luo, I want to meet him. You can go find him tomorrow and find a way to bring him to the county government."

"This... Mr. Li..."

Lao Luo looked distressed, Li Zhaoshuo turned his eyes, it was obvious that he had expected it.

"Old Luo, you haven't sold that simple belt yet, have you? Let me tell you, it's something from the Chang'an Palace. If you can find someone who knows the goods, you will have no worries about food and clothing for more than ten years."

"This, this is so expensive?"

Lao Luo almost dropped his jaw in shock.

"I, I, I haven't sold it yet, Mr. Li, don't fool me."

"I am a person under confinement, and I have reached this level. How can I fool you? I depend on you."

Li Zhaoshuo patted Lao Luo's shoulder meaningfully, Luo Weidao also took a deep breath and looked at him fixedly.

"Old Luo, you can go find him tomorrow, and make an appointment with him in the alley to the west of the backyard of the yamen tomorrow at [-]:[-] a.m. tomorrow. As long as you can bring him into the yamen, I will wait for you there."

"This... is done!"

Luo Weidao thought for a while, and finally readily agreed.After all, this matter is not difficult for him, a night watchman.

This afternoon, Hu Jiuzhang appeared in front of the tea stand again, but this time, Lao Luo was already sitting on the bench of the stall waiting for him.

Seeing Hu Jiuzhang coming, Lao Luo rushed to Hu Jiuzhang, "Brother Hu, we meet again."

"Yes."

Hu Jiuzhang raised his head slightly, and sized up the man in front of him.It's still the same one from yesterday. This figure is really tall, but he doesn't look like a Lianjiazi.If he wanted to do it, it didn't take him much effort to knock this person down.

"I forgot to say yesterday that my surname is Luo, and I came here to wait for you today to deliver a message to you." Luo Weidao looked very eager, "Someone wants to see you tonight."

"Who wants to see me? Gotta give me a name."

Hu Jiuzhang remained calm, his heroic face actually had a hint of scheming.

"I told you my name a long time ago, Li Zhaoshuo. I just want to ask if you have met."

Lao Luo didn't think too much about it. Anyway, Mr. Li didn't say that he wanted to hide his name. He was the only one who passed on the message, and if he didn't speak clearly, he would complain later.

Hu Jiuzhang frowned slightly, he thought for a moment, then nodded.

"See you. Why don't you see me! Time and place, I'll think about it."

Lao Luo was overjoyed when he heard this.

"At three o'clock tonight, come to the back door of the county government office, and I'll take you to see someone."

"The back door of the county yamen? Want to meet in the yamen?"

Hu Jiuzhang suddenly became wary.Although he lost his legs now, he still remembers the deep pain in his calf.

"Yes, are you coming?"

"……Not coming."

After only a moment of silence, Hu Jiuzhang replied in a deep voice.

"I won't go to the county office. If you want to meet, go to the place I choose."

"This……"

What he said made Luo Luo feel difficult.Mr. Li has been imprisoned in the Yamen by a group of people from Youzhou for more than a year.The leader of the Youzhou people is Dong Junsheng, who has a very good relationship with the county magistrate. He is a small official, but he dare not let Li Zhaoshuo go out without permission to offend the county magistrate's friends.

"Why, no?"

Hu Jiuzhang didn't allow him to think about it, but his attitude became stronger.

"If you can't, I won't see you. Anyway, I don't care." After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, and Lao Luo hurriedly grabbed his arm.Hu Jiuzhang had expected this move from the opponent, he saw the right moment, and moved his hand back with force, the strength was so great that he almost brought Lao Luo down.

"Hey! You, why can't you discuss it?"

Luo Weidao was taken aback, and managed to stabilize his figure, but he didn't dare to grab Hu Jiuzhang's arm anymore.

"There's nothing to discuss about this matter." Hu Jiuzhang put on a cold face, not intending to back down.

Lao Luo's complexion was obviously not good-looking, but he faintly felt that the cripple in front of him was not as weak as he appeared on the surface.In other words, he made a wrong judgment from the very beginning, this person——if he really regarded him as a lame person, then he was wrong.His eyes don't look like the indifference among ordinary people, but seem to be bloody and can kill people!

"Uh... Then, tell me, where do you want to meet?"

"At three o'clock today, go to the Yuelai Inn on the east side of the market. There is a dark alley there. If you are familiar with this place, you should know it better than me."

"Then... I'll go back and tell Mr. Li. As for whether he will go or not, I can't guarantee it."

"Whether he goes or not, I'll wait for him there tonight. But if it's past Haishi, I won't wait any longer."

After Hu Jiuzhang finished speaking, he turned and left.

Lao Luo stood there in a daze for a few seconds, he suddenly wanted to know who the veteran was and what kind of power was behind him...

He said he came from Chang'an, so what has Chang'an become now?

Luo Weidao thought silently.

Even though there were huge waves outside, it seemed that nothing had changed in Liaodong City.

The news Lao Luo brought back was not as good as Li Zhaoshuo expected.

He had a vague feeling that the lame soldier Lao Luo was talking about actually didn't know him as Li Zhaoshuo.He should have arrived at the palace after he left Chang'an, right?But since he claims to be from Su Wang's mansion, he shouldn't know the name of the second son in the palace.

Could it be... This person didn't actually do anything in the palace, but just used such a gimmick to bluff around?

When Li Zhaoshuo thought of this, he felt something was wrong.Since he wanted to bluff and deceive, why did this person come to Liaodong?Why didn't he go to Jiangnan?It is peaceful and prosperous there, much better than a small border town like Liaodong.

Li Zhaoshuo pondered over and over again, he always felt that the person Luo Wei said was really connected with the palace.And the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't resist the urge to meet this person.

"Well……"

He took a deep breath.

"I'm going to see him."

Li Zhaoshuo said in a deep voice, with an unusually firm expression.

Seeing his appearance like this, Lao Luo found it difficult.

"No, Mr. Li, you do know that if someone finds out about letting you out privately, Mr. Dong will ask me to settle the score." Lao Luo lowered his voice, bent down and looked at him eagerly. Li Zhaoshuo's face was full of pleading.

"He Dong Junsheng can't control you no matter what, let alone his official... You know, it's a fake official. And you, you are from Tang Dynasty, you must be loyal to the court."

Li Zhaoshuo also lowered his voice, a sly look flashed in his eyes.

"Hey, Mr. Li, look at what you said, I..." Of course Luo Weidao also knew that Dong Junsheng's group belonged to the rebel party, but the chaos in Liaodong is not a day or two.This is obviously a prefecture of the Tang Dynasty, but in fact the people in power are all the dignitaries of Goguryeo.

When Emperor Taizong went to the Northeast to destroy Goguryeo, he did not drive out all the local Goguryeo forces.Since the resignation of General Xue Rengui, the military and political power of the Anton Dufu has gradually fallen into the hands of the survivors of the foreign race. On the surface, the Tang officials are beautiful, but in their hearts they are just decorations.

Now that the Tang Dynasty has also fallen, Luo Weidao of course knows that he is an official of the Tang Dynasty, but he is still in Liaodong, who has the final say here, he knows in his heart.

"What about you? Lao Luo, I will tell you clearly. I am the son of the Tang clan, and my father is the orthodox prince of the Tang Dynasty. The group of people surnamed Dong are rebels and traitors! The next day, the Holy One The army wiped out the remnants of the rebels and regained the Tang Dynasty, who did what and didn't do anything here, and everything has to be liquidated."

Li Zhaoshuo's voice was extremely low, he was not as tall as Luo Weidao, but he looked aggressive.Lao Luo's face was solemn, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he seemed to be a little bit anxious.

"Then if you say that..."

Lao Luo's voice was low, with determination in his eyes.

When Li Zhaoshuo saw that look, his heart felt cold.

Is this guy going to refuse?

As soon as this idea popped up, Li Zhaoshuo broke out in a cold sweat.He must not lose this opportunity, let alone push Lao Luo into a hurry!

Thinking of this, Li Zhaoshuo's eyes softened, and he coughed lightly, looking a little embarrassed.

"Lao Luo, I don't want to force you to do anything. I must go to this appointment tonight. If you are afraid of causing trouble for yourself, I will not force you. I just ask you one thing, you tell me Where is Yuelai Inn and how to get there, I will go by myself. Even if I am discovered this time, it has nothing to do with you."

Li Zhaoshuo spoke earnestly, but Luo Weidao followed suit with a sigh.

"Mr. Li, why are you taking this risk? You say you are a son, can you just stay well? Even if you go to meet that person, what can you change?"

"Hey—Lao Luo, it's meaningless to talk about it now. I promise, this matter has nothing to do with you, and I haven't come to ask you for a question. Let's just pretend that nothing happened, and you tell me where that place is ,I go by my own."

"You... eh, you..."

Luo Weidao let out a long sigh, but he had nothing to say.He looked at Li Zhaoshuo's appearance is really pitiful, and then thought about the Youzhou soldiers who were shouting and drinking at the county government gate on weekdays.Hmph... Those gangsters, someone in the yamen has already seen that they are not going well!

Lao Luo let out a long sigh, and finally agreed to Li Zhaoshuo.

He explained the route to Yuelai Inn in detail to Li Zhaoshuo, and when he was on duty at night, he did not forget to leave the door open for Li Zhaoshuo.

In the evening of that day, those people from Youzhou got together to drink again, making the county government very uneasy.Lao Luo glanced at the house where the Youzhou soldiers gathered, and felt at ease again.After all, if this is the case, then Mr. Li's matter tonight should not cause too much trouble.

At night, Lao Luo dozed off in the duty room as usual.

But Li Zhaoshuo was in no mood to sleep.When the Youzhou soldier came back drunk, he went to rest on the kang as usual.

Seeing the twilight, he became more and more energetic.

The night was long, and just after Xu time, there were bursts of thunderous snoring in the room.Li Zhaoshuo got up cautiously, and before getting off the kang, he did not forget to bring the quilts he had prepared in advance and stuff them into his lying place to pile them up.

In the past, he often went out at night, but this time, he was nervous for no reason.

Finally he tiptoed out the door, and when he arrived at the back door of the county government office, his heart seemed to burst out of his chest again, and the sound of "bang bang bang" became louder every time.

In the darkness, Li Zhaoshuo listened carefully to the sounds around him. He was sure that there was no one around, so he pushed the door of the backyard.As expected, the door was unlocked that night, and Li Zhaoshuo easily stepped outside.

It's been almost two years!

Thinking of the freedom he had been deprived of in the past two years, Li Zhaoshuo couldn't help taking a deep breath, and tears welled up in his eyes for a while.

He opened his mouth wide and took a few breaths, taking advantage of the distant moonlight in the sky, groping forward.

Li Zhaoshuo was in a hurry, and at the same time as he was hurrying, a figure flashed by the gate of the county government's backyard.Apparently, that person also came out from the county government office.
