The daughter of the emperor was reborn and was spoiled by the sickly prince.

Liao Qinglan walked out of the tent and was about to ask Gu Mingzhao where to change clothes.

Gu Mingzhao glanced sideways, with a hint of warning in his eyes, indicating that she should remain silent.

Although she didn't know why, she knew that Gu Mingzhao was meticulous and would not be nervous for no reason, so she remained silent and followed Gu Mingzhao's steps closely.

The two walked to the door of the bathhouse.

Just as Qin Yunhan said, the bathhouse was empty.

Liao Qinglan opened her mouth to ask, but before she could make a sound, her mouth was quickly covered by Gu Mingzhao.

Gu Mingzhao leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Keep your voice down. There are sentries everywhere at night. There is one right above our heads."

Liao Qinglan was startled and asked in a low voice, "Have we been under their surveillance all along?"

Gu Mingzhao nodded and said in a low voice: "I have observed that all newcomers are monitored in their every move, and we are no exception."

After saying that, he began to take off his clothes.

The tattered coat was taken off piece by piece, revealing his solid chest and smooth muscle lines.

Liao Qinglan took a look and blushed, and quickly looked away.

This figure... is completely different from the Gu Mingzhao in her memory...

In his previous life, Gu Mingzhao had never learned martial arts because of an old leg injury.

At that time, he had a well-proportioned figure and looked like a weak scholar.

Nowadays, Gu Mingzhao looks quite thin when he wears clothes.

I didn't expect that after taking off his clothes, he looked so strong and with clear muscle lines, as if he was reborn.

Liao Qinglan couldn't help but steal another glance, but her gaze met Gu Mingzhao's unexpectedly.

She turned away in an attempt to hide her embarrassment.

Gu Mingzhao raised his lips slightly and said jokingly, "Look if you want. I won't eat you."

What else can I say? I can only pretend I didn't hear it.

Gu Mingzhao said no more and quickly changed into new clothes.

"I'll guard the door, you should change quickly." Gu Mingzhao said.

After seeing him leave, Liao Qinglan changed her clothes as quickly as possible and went to the door to find him.

Gu Mingzhao was seen holding a sword in his arms, looking up at the sky outside.

He turned around only when he heard her footsteps coming from behind him.

Liao Qinglan couldn't help laughing when she saw his current appearance.

He was tall, and the new clothes seemed too tight and small for him, and looked a little funny on him.

Gu Mingzhao didn't care. He gently pulled his shirt and said, "Don't laugh. You're not much better."

Liao Qinglan looked down and found that what he said was indeed correct.

My clothes were too loose and hung loosely on my body, making me look like a walking stick.

After laughing, Liao Qinglan couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Although this clothing does not fit well, it is thick and the outer armor is strong enough to withstand ordinary attacks.

She said to Gu Mingzhao: "The situation here is more serious than I expected. I didn't expect their power to be so huge. These armors are not inferior to those of the regular army of the imperial court."

Gu Mingzhao comforted him, "Don't worry, the reason they have been able to grow stronger is because they have not been discovered. I have ordered Qingfeng to notify Prime Minister Liao as soon as he finds their location, and the court will send troops to wipe them out soon."

Liao Qinglan nodded: "We must find Wang Tingzhi as soon as possible and rescue him, so that the court will not be restricted by his concerns."

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingzhao suddenly reached out and pinched Liao Qinglan's waist.

Liao Qinglan felt pain and almost cried out.

Thinking that someone was following her, Liao Qinglan didn't dare to make any noise. She glared at Gu Mingzhao and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

Gu Mingzhao glanced at her calmly and said, "I will naturally go and save Wang Tingzhi, but I don't like to hear his name mentioned by you."

Liao Qinglan: “…”

She was not even allowed to mention the purpose of her visit...

Forget it. Anyway, saving people depends on him, so whatever he says is what matters.

Liao Qinglan shut up obediently and went back to the tent with him.

After days of hard work, everyone was already exhausted.

When they came back, they found that many people had fallen asleep.

Gu Mingzhao waited for a while, until all the whispered conversations had stopped, leaving only the slight breathing sounds echoing in the night air, before he began to act.

Gu Mingzhao was very agile and his footsteps made no sound at all. No one in the tent noticed that someone had slipped away.

He moved silently between the tents, climbing over eaves and walls, his figure hidden in the darkness.

Not only did he evade the patrolling soldiers, but he also used his keen insight to avoid the sight of the secret sentries and approached the dungeon where the prisoners were held.

At the entrance to the dungeon, there was only a heavy iron door closed, covered with mottled rust, looking eerie and depressing.

There were two soldiers guarding outside the gate, and it was difficult to bypass the guards and enter through the main gate.

Gu Mingzhao walked around the dungeon and finally found a broken window frame in an inconspicuous corner.

Gu Mingzhao held his breath, gently pushed open the window frame, and nimbly climbed in.

A cold and damp breath hit me in the face, making me shudder.

The dungeon was dark, with only a few weak torches flickering with faint light.

There was no one on duty inside, which made it convenient for him to act.

However, he searched the place inside and out twice but did not find Wang Tingzhi.

Gu Mingzhao frowned.

They risked their lives to sneak in here just to rescue Wang Tingzhi.

If we can't find him, all our efforts will be in vain.

He calmed himself down and began to carefully observe every corner of the dungeon.

For a young master with a prominent family background like Wang Tingzhi, being alive would be much more valuable than being dead.

I guess he wouldn't be so crazy as to kill him...

He must be guarding somewhere else.

After Gu Mingzhao returned, he told Liao Qinglan about his findings.

"This is not easy. As you said, the guards here are very tight. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack for us to find Wang Tingzhi." Liao Qinglan said.

"That's right. I'll go around during the day tomorrow and see which place is more heavily guarded. That should be where the problem lies."

Liao Qinglan thought it was not feasible: "How long will it take you to find it by yourself?"

"I'll look for it myself first. If it doesn't work, I'll make a long-term plan after three days when I become a centurion. It should be much easier to find someone then." Gu Mingzhao said.

Liao Qinglan looked at him with a smile: "We need to find someone who is familiar with the military camp to lend us a hand."

Gu Mingzhao looked at Qin Yunhan who was already asleep beside him: "He looks easier to be discovered than you."

"It's not him." Liao Qinglan shook her head and couldn't help complaining, "What do you mean by easier to be discovered than me? Am I stupid?"

Gu Mingzhao thought about it and soon understood who she was referring to: "Go find Ah Wu?"

"Yes."

"But there are at least eight thousand soldiers here. How can we find him?" Gu Mingzhao looked a little distressed.

"Then let him come to us on his own initiative!" Liao Qinglan was very confident in her plan.
