Chapitre 96: Welcome to Ningzhuo 4

Just outside the border of Ningzhuo

Lu Yaozhu pulled her behind him and unsheathed his sword as he heard footsteps outside the tent. He held the sword tightly and raised it when a shadow appeared at the entrance of the tent. He swung the sword as the tent flap was pulled back, he stopped a breath distance from Yu Tao's jugular vein. 

Yu Tao stepped back immediately and held his hands up, "hold on young master, it is me!" 

Lu Yaozhu pull the sword away and returned the sword into the scabbard, "who just rode in?"

Yu Tao walked closer once the sword was sheathed, he gave Su Liya who stepped out from behind Lu Yaozhu an apologetic smile. "That is why I came in, young master. The Magistrate and a few other officials came with some guards to escort you and our young madam into the city".

"What" she glanced at the quiet Lu Yaozhu and asked, "that is odd, did you inform them that you were at the city's borders?"
