At the time of Xu, Luo Xiaoyao and the other two followed the Arrow Guard to the branch courtyard, but Lin Youde was not in the other courtyard. Luo Xiaoyao thought that he was going out to find someone to find Zhuo Qinglian's whereabouts, so he sat down in the hall with Xiao Muyun and Xu Wenxiang.

"Junior brother, I have checked the entire Dongcheng... I haven't seen the house where the bad woman's surname is hanging. Do you think this bad woman will change her name?" Xu Wenxiang said suspiciously.

"No." Before Luo Xiaoyao could answer, Xiao Muyun shook her head apart, "She is recording the identity of an official. Unless the Southern Han Emperor gave her the surname Liu, it would be impossible for her to change her surname at will."

"That evil woman must have known that the murder of Poison Scholar was killed. Will she have resigned and hid?"

"What my senior sister said may be possible..." Luo Xiaoyao pondered: "But An Longxing said that she had returned to the Xing Palace to be transferred to the position of commander of the imperial guards. I think she would rely on the power of the imperial guards to prevent us from seeking revenge..."

"Qi Zhousheng and she are both greedy for glory, so they should not give up their official position easily." Xiao Muyun smiled and continued, "Senior Sister, don't you worry, have you not investigated the North City and the Inner City? Maybe you will see the house with the plaque of the surname "Zhuo" tomorrow..."

As he spoke, Lin Youde, who was smiling, walked into the hall quickly. Luo Xiaoyao felt something. After he saluted and saw him sitting down, he smiled and said, "Have you found out the news?"

"Haha, fortunately, I'm not disgraced." Lin Youde nodded and smiled, "I asked someone to find Zhuo Qinglian's whereabouts from an official from the Ministry of Rites. He was the general of the prison guard."

"What is the function of the Guardian Guard?" Luo Xiaoyao said suspiciously. He also had some understanding of the official system of various courts, but he did not know the responsibilities of the Guardian Guard.

Lin Youde smiled and said, "Since the troubled times, the titles of personal guards of various dynasties have changed, but the Southern Han still followed the Tang Dynasty's official system, and the capital city imperial guards and the prefectures are organized by the six armies and twelve guards."

"The guards of the outer periphery of the palace city and the various officials' offices, such as the eight major gates of the palace city, are all under the responsibility of the left and right guards, while the palace is under the guards of the left and right Qianniu Guards. The official system is all equipped with one general and two generals. Zhuo Qinglian is the guard of the left and right guards."

"That's where she found her house?"

"The subordinates may be suspicious, so they have never asked anyone to inquire." Lin Youde smiled and said, "That is, she is known to be in the prison guard, so it is easy to detect. The young master can report her appearance to his subordinates, and also arrange for the arrow guard to wait for her to leave... and then he can follow her secretly."

Luo Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Tomorrow, you can just find someone who knows the guards and yamen in the prison and the guards and yamen to take me there."

The three of them had not seen each other for nearly three years, but it was difficult to describe her face clearly for a while, but they were afraid that they would miss it, so Luo Xiaoyao decided to go in person.

Lin Youde hesitated after hearing this, shook his head and said, "The official yamen is in the imperial city forbidden garden, which is difficult for ordinary people to get close to. There are eight places for the entrance to the palace city, so the young master and the three of them cannot take care of..."

"Well. What the manager said is reasonable..." Luo Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, "I have checked the Dongcheng residence separately just now, but I have not seen any house plaques in the surname Zhuo. Tomorrow, the manager can first check the place where the officials in the city are in detail...

Xu Wenxiang suddenly said in surprise: "I forgot something for a moment. When Qi Zhou was born in Shaozhou, he had already changed his name. If he used his surname..."

After she and Xiao Muyunxun went to Shaozhou to meet the maid Cui'er, she guessed that Qi Zhousheng had changed his name. Then she suddenly thought of it and expressed her doubts.

"It should not be. Judging from Qi Zhousheng's dependence on Zhuo Qinglian to seek glory, his official title should not be higher than Zhuo Qinglian... In the Southern Han Dynasty, women were mostly held in power, and eunuchs were in power. If there was a plaque in the house, it should be known as Zhuo's surname." Luo Xiaoyao said.

"If you can't find out her house tomorrow... the subordinates will arrest the leader of the prison guard to inquire. What do the young master think?"

"It's good, but when you need to catch someone after the departure level, so as not to alarm Zhuo Qinglian."

"Subordinates obey the order."

………

When the hour of You, the Jianwei who went out to inquire, he still did not find the house with the door plaque in the city with the surname "Zhuo". Luo Xiaoyao asked Lin Youde Yice to capture a guard to inquire.

At the third hour of Xu, Lin Youde followed a gatekeeper who had changed his duties. When he walked out of the north gate of the inner city, he controlled him and installed him on a carriage that had been prepared and transported it to the secret room of the other courtyard.

The head of the prison guard is over 30 years old and is good at Guizhen Xiaocheng. After Lin Youde untied the acupoints, he looked at Luo Xiaoyao and others with a look of surprise and said, "Du and you all have no acquaintance... Why did you catch Du?"

Luo Xiaoyao saw that although he was shocked and was quite brave, he knew that he was a person who was greedy for life and feared death. He smiled slightly, "I will look for Du Juntou this time, and there is something to ask about..."

"Oh?" The leader surnamed Du narrowed his eyes and said again: "When asked, should he kill or release?"

But he didn't ask what Luo Xiaoyao and others asked. Lin Youde smiled and said, "We are not cruel people, and we have no grudges and grudges with Du Juntou, so we will not do anything to kill people and silence them... But the matter is not secret, so we have to aggrieved Du Juntou and stay here for a few days."

"Then you don't need to ask, just kill Mr. Du."

Everyone was surprised when they heard this. The leader of Du looked around at the secret room with only wooden doors and no windows, and said, "You know Du's identity and captured Du. The thing they planned is not simple. Even if they want to let Du off, it may be three or five days later. But if so, Du's family will die because of this..."

Luo Xiaoyao was even more surprised and said suspiciously: "Why did Du Jun say this?"

"The generals of all courts and towns recruited soldiers into the army, and all asked the soldiers' families to bring them to the camp to live. Although it could make the soldiers bravely fight the enemy without any worries, they actually had to prevent the soldiers from turning against each other in the middle of the journey, so that they would be cautious."

Since the collapse of the military system of the government, the recruitment system of the troops in various places has led to the military support and the chaos in the world has caused great chaos. After Liu Zhi of the Southern Han Dynasty established the country, he knew the harm and had abolished the recruitment system and restored the military system of the government.

Lin Youde thought to himself when he heard this, "Didn't the Southern Han Dynasty change the military system of recruiting soldiers and family members to accompany the army?"

"But the guards and Qianniu Guards guards protect the imperial city's home, to prevent us from rebelling... All the families of the guards were stationed in the camp. If Du disappeared for no reason and had twelve hours, all the young and old in the family would be monitored. If there was no news in three days, they would be imprisoned."

"Even if you let Du go in the future... Du will not explain clearly at that time, and the whole family will cause death." The leader of Du paused for a moment and suddenly bowed to him. "You will kill Du, and I hope to abandon Du's body immediately to the Ming place to avoid the Du family's death..."

Even though Lin Youde was in the Xing Palace for many years, he didn't know the reason for this, and he was stunned for a moment.

Luo Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment and said, "As long as you can tell me what I asked about, I will immediately put Du Jun's head down."

"Ah?! Young Master must not." Lin Youde said anxiously.

"If I harm innocent people because of this, how can I feel at ease?" Luo Xiaoyao shook his head, "I think Du Jun is the most filial person, so he should not go back on his word."

Lin Youde looked at the happy-looking leader Du, hesitated for a moment, and said, "That's true, then please ask Du Jun to swear poisonously."

Although the winds of the times are getting worse in the midst of troubled times, even the traitors and evil people are unwilling to make vows easily. Lin Youde was afraid that the leader of Du would tell others about the matter, but he asked him to make a poisonous oath to restrain him.

"I wonder what you are going to ask about?" The leader named Du thought that he had the chance, so he asked about the reasons.

"I only ask about the whereabouts of one person..."

"Where is a person's whereabouts?" The leader of Du looked at everyone, hesitated a little, and then said seriously: "The emperor is above, Du Qing swears here that if he tells others what he sees and hears tonight, the family of six will not die well..."

"Okay." Lin Youde nodded when he heard him swearing, "Do you know where the house of Zhuo Qinglian, the guard guard of the prison, is?"

"General Zhuo Lang? Hehe, I think only General Zhuo Lang's whereabouts are something you can't find out..." "Du Qing frowned and smiled bitterly: "Since she served as a post, she only appeared in the prison guard's yamen when the daytime and noon were changed."

The guards and Qianniu Guards of Weisu Imperial City changed their rotation every four hours, and Zhuo Qinglian only appeared during the day. Luo Xiaoyao knew that she was worried that she would be so for revenge, so he was not surprised to hear this, and asked, "Then she was on duty until the rotation?"

"She is the confidant of Shizhong Lu. Even if she doesn't go on duty on time, no one dares to object. Every time she goes to the Siya, she just stays for a moment, and never greets anyone when she leaves, even if the general is present... she doesn't know where she left the palace gate."

Du Qing paused and looked at Luo Xiaoyao, "If Du expected it was not bad, she should be guarding against everyone for revenge..."

Luo Xiaoyao did not deny it and nodded, "Then where is her house?"

"No one in the prison guard knows where her house is."

Everyone was stunned, and Lin Youde asked, "If you have something to do to find Zhuo Qinglian, how can you contact her?"

"There was a consort in the Siya that was named Lu, who was the confidant of General Zhuo Lang. If there was any problem, he and General Zhuo Lang would notify him." Du Qingyan said: "But three months ago, General Zhuo Lang had never been involved in the Siya for a long time, so the same is true for the Lu Gong."

Luo Xiaoyao had already guessed that the Lu Gong in Du Qingyan was the one he was secretly following in Shaozhou. He was stunned again when he heard this, "How can you tell where they went?"

"I'm going to recruit talents for Shizhong Lu." Du Qingyan said: "There is a recruitment hall in the south city called the guards to recruit guards. It is actually a Taoist couple who practices Taoist dual cultivation techniques..."

In this world, Taoist people use the technique of practicing both men and women to prolong their lives. The officials in the court, and even emperors, would seek this method, but they all misunderstand the true meaning of practice and indulge in eroticism and achieve nothing.

"So that is Zhuo Qinglian in the recruitment hall?" Luo Xiaoyao's eyes shone brightly.

Du Qing shook his head, "The recruitment hall is just the first threshold. Only when unmarried men have the Guyuan realm or above can they meet the registration requirements. On the tenth day of the month, a competition will be held in the hall. Those who have won the top three will be sent elsewhere to choose... No one knows where the second test is located."

"Oh?! How do you say this?" Luo Xiaoyao was surprised and suspicious.

Du Qing paused for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Du has a junior brother who is not married yet. He is the realm of Guyuan's great success. He did not want to join the army at the beginning because he was afraid that his parents would accompany him and there would be no accidents."

"When I learned that the family members of the prison guards were not required to be in the camp for the recruitment of the prison guards, my junior brother went to register, but after the competition, he got the second place. I thought I could go to the prison guards' office, but I was told that there would be another test. When I went to the second test, I not only had to seal my cultivation, but also blindfolded my eyes."

Lin Youde asked, "What is the name of the competition among the people in the Recruitment Hall?"

"First, we compare the amount of wine, mixed with the fine wine produced in each court. If the person who has not drunk himself is considered to be a 15-pound person, he will be played in it..." Du Qing paused, glanced at Xiao Muyun and Xu Wenxiang, and wanted to speak but stopped.

But if you guess or make someone play erotic songs, coupled with the determination of the person taking the erotic dance test, Du Qing was concerned about Xiao and Xu, and was afraid of offending and dared not speak out. Luo Xiaoyao nodded and turned to the topic, "What about junior brother later?"

"My junior brother and others were surprised and suspicious. At that time, the person in charge told me that the person who was selected would protect a powerful figure in the court in the future. The identities of the people below have not been fulfilled, so they must go there in this way."

"You all know that it is difficult to enter the Southern Han Dynasty." Du Qing shook his head and smiled bitterly, "If anyone who has a seventh rank or above has achieved success in martial arts, most of them will suffer from castration... My junior brother knew it was not easy to enter the government, so he held a guard position to support his parents, so he nodded and agreed."

The Emperor of Southern Han was afraid that his ministers would be unfaithful, but he wanted people to be castrated before they could become officials. The so-called people who have achieved success in martial arts are all skilled and at least to return to the true realm. These martial arts talents are hard to find in all courts. In order to keep them, the Emperor of Southern Han also gave up the requirement of castration for martial arts people, but they were mostly appointed as guest officials in the army and worship positions.

"How could I know that when I arrived in a different courtyard, I was told the truth. It was to recruit Taoist couples for those who practice Taoist dual cultivation techniques. The so-called second test was to check whether the innate yin and yang and five elements of the person who passed the barrier, and whether it was in line with the woman who practiced the technique together."

"At that time, many masters looked around and their cultivation was restrained. Junior Brother Chang and others knew that if they had any objections, their lives would be difficult to protect and they had to be at the mercy of others... Fortunately, the Yin-Yang and Five Elements Qi of the three selected were inconsistent with the women who practiced the exercises, so they were blindfolded again..."

"But after coming out, I was sent back to the recruitment hall. After the people in the hall realized that my junior brother's household registration was not false, I also appointed my junior brother as the left and right Wuwei Guards, responsible for the inner city security guards."

"Du Juntou means that Zhuo Qinglian is in that villa... responsible for detecting the Yin and Yang and Five Elements of the selected person?" Luo Xiaoyao said.

"Afterwards, Du asked my junior brother, and the person who tested the selected yin and yang energy was a Taoist surnamed Yimu. As for General Zhuo Lang... Although my junior brother didn't know her, he also heard the person in charge of the other courtyard. He was called Commander Zhuo, and I think it was General Zhuo Lang."

Although Du Qing did not explain the identity of a woman who practiced dual cultivation techniques, Luo Xiaoyao guessed that it should be the female servant Lu Qiongxian, and Zhuo Qinglian would not be in charge of the other courtyard. He wanted to ask about Lu Qiongxian's martial arts cultivation, but he knew that practicing Taoist dual cultivation techniques was to focus on the innate yin and yang and five elements of men and women. The level of martial arts was not a prerequisite, and even Lu Qiongxian could practice it without martial arts.

After all, Xiao and Xu were women who were listening next to each other. If you ask in detail, it would eventually cause embarrassment. Luo Xiaoyao put away the idea of ​​inquiring and nodded, "Thank you, Du Juntou, for telling you frankly. I am grateful, but the matter is secret and I offended..."

Before Du Qing reacted, Luo Xiaoyao moved his right hand, but he controlled his sleeping hole. When he was about to fall, Lin Youde hugged him in his waist and took him out of the secret room under his armpit.

However, he did not put Du Qing on the carriage, but directly used his light skills to take him to an alley on the street, unbuttoning his acupoints. In Du Qing's trance, Lin Youde chuckled and jumped away.

………

Lin Youde returned to the other courtyard, Luo Xiaoyao and the other two had moved from the secret room to the hall. After greeting him to take his seat, Luo Xiaoyao asked: "Manager Lin, there is no marriage in the Arrow Guard at present. How many people are in the Guyuan realm?"

Lin Youde was a little stunned, then smiled and said, "What the young master meant was to let these arrow guards register and get in and find out where Zhuo Qinglian was in?"

"I'm going to sign up with me..."

"Oh?! How can that young master hide his cultivation level?" Lin Youde didn't know that Luo Xiaoyao could hide his energy.

"I am fortunate to be helped by a master. My martial arts and qi can be as easy as a person who has mastered the great cultivation of the elixir... The manager can pick up a few smart arrow guards and go with me."

"But the young master once fought with the guards around Zhuo Qinglian in Shaozhou, if..."

"I used to fight with him on a roof, but before I could even strike the man, the man was shot down under the house. I thought he had never seen my tricks clearly... Besides, under the night, the man should not be able to recognize him, so there is no need to worry about the affairs."

But if you want to be defeated by Luo Xiaoyao in a flash, you should have never seen Luo Xiaoyao's face clearly. Lin Youde nodded and said, "If this is the case, you will act according to the young master's plan... Jianwei Zhan Wen, Zhan Wu, the two brothers from Fengzhou, are from Guyuan realm, and they are all very skilled. The young master is about the same age as them, and you can pretend to be one of them under your name."
