Shen Lansui followed the man in black out and was about to reach the ground. She was about to take a closer look at where this place was when she felt a sudden pain in the back of her neck and was knocked unconscious again.
Shen Lansui: "..."
You guys are really nothing—
The man in black caught her limp body, put it directly on his shoulders, and carried her out.
The candlelight flickered in the secret room, and the masked man was still standing there playing with the jade flute in his hand. A stone wall behind him suddenly rose up, and a person slowly walked out of it, it was Jin Jianyun.
He walked to stand behind the man and asked in a low voice: "Just let her go?"
"What?" The man didn't even look back.
"Is that Gu insect really reliable?" Jin Jianyun said quickly and said, "I'm not doubting Your Highness, but if something goes wrong with that Gu insect..."
"So what if something went wrong?" The man turned around and chuckled, "First she didn't see my face, second she didn't hear my voice, and third she didn't have any evidence. What can happen?"
Jin Jianyun was stunned for the same reason.
"What's more, I got that Gu from a witch doctor who is proficient in the art of puppetry. His Gu has never made any mistakes and no one can resist it."
"In that case, let's just wait for the good news." Jin Jianyun smiled slowly.

Shen Lansui woke up again and met Luo Yisu's worried eyes.
"You're awake, but are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"Why am I back?"
Shen Lansui looked around and saw the familiar curtain. She was now in the cubicle.
"You almost scared me to death!" Luo Yisu whispered: "I was giving medicine to the patient. The clerk hurried in and told me that a carriage was parked at the door. The driver fell to the ground and was unconscious. I hurried I went out to take a look. Isn't this your carriage? I was immediately confused. I opened the curtain and saw that you were indeed inside. You took off the power fence and fell on the soft couch wearing a mask. You didn't scream no matter what. Awake."
"Later, I had someone carry you in and check your pulse to make sure you were okay. Then I breathed a sigh of relief."
Luo Yisu patted his heart with a frightened expression on his face.
"I'm fine, where is Meng Cheng?"
As soon as Shen Lansui finished speaking, a figure moved outside the curtain and said, "My subordinate is here."
"You come in."
Meng Cheng obeyed and entered. Shen Lansui quickly took a good look at him to make sure that his face was rosy and his heart was a little relaxed. He still asked one more question, "Is it serious? When did you wake up?"
"My subordinate woke up as soon as he was lifted up. Nothing happened. Miss Luo bandaged his flesh and skin injuries."
As he spoke, he glanced at Luo Yisu. His dark face was slightly red, but because it was not obvious, no one noticed it.
Luo Yisu held Shen Lansui's hand and frowned: "How did you end up like this? Someone is making things difficult for you?"
"It's a long story." Shen Lansui pressed his eyebrows with a headache. After thinking for a moment, he decided to keep the Gu worm thing a secret.
"Meng Cheng, go out and take a look. Is there anyone suspicious looking here? Be careful and don't make it too obvious."
"Yes!" Meng Cheng walked out quickly.
Luo Yisu was even more worried.
"Just tell me what's going on, so I know better."
Shen Lansui held her hand tightly with both hands and looked at her sincerely, "Yisu, I can't tell you the details because I'm not sure who the person behind it is. The more you know, the better." It's very dangerous, maybe they are spying on me."
As she spoke, she looked around and lowered her voice: "But don't be afraid. My husband is very powerful. I won't be in danger with him around, so don't worry too much."
Luo Yisu pursed his lips, "Then what can I help you with?"
Shen Lansui pondered for a moment and said, "I can't think of it right now. I'll come back to you when I get it straightened out."
Luo Yisu nodded, "Okay, I'll be waiting at any time."
Looking at her firm eyes, Shen Lansui smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will hurt you?"
Unexpectedly, Luo Yisu's face changed as soon as these words came out, and he glared at her angrily, "Are you heartless? If I was afraid that you would implicate me, I would not have agreed to your sitting in court in the first place."
Shen Lansui said hurriedly: "I'm just kidding, sir, don't take it seriously."
"You -" Luo Yisu sighed helplessly, and after a moment he warned worriedly, "You should have a good talk with the Marquis after you go back. It's too dangerous."
Shen Lansui also understands this truth, but how to say it is another matter.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Duke's Mansion. Shen Lansui took off the power fence and mask in advance and put them in the dark compartment. He also wiped the human skin mask on and made sure there was no problem before lifting up his skirt and getting out of the car.
At this time, the sun had set, and the orange-red sunset burned half of the sky. The afterglow made the nails of the red door shine brightly, and also illuminated the jade pendant with blue tassels on the steps of the man.
"Master?" Meng Cheng shouted.
Shen Lansui immediately raised his eyes and met Lu Xingyue's eyes.
At that moment, she felt blessed. She held up the hem of her skirt and stepped forward quickly. Lu Xingyue hurriedly walked down the steps, gave her a hand, and said warmly: "What's the hurry?"
Shen Lansui looked at his gentle and beautiful face in the afterglow and asked in a low voice: "You...are you waiting for me?"
Lu Xingyue smiled: "Wait for Meng Cheng."
Meng Cheng: "Huh?"
Is there anything else about him here?
Shen Lansui pinched him gently through his sleeve, "Tough talk."
Lu Xingyue was not annoyed and just looked at her with a smile.
Shen Lansui couldn't pinch anymore, so she retracted her hand and walked forward with him. After taking two steps, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She stopped and walked around him again, "Your legs..."
Lu Xingyue said softly: "That's great."
"Really?!" Half of her surprise was fake, but half of it was true.
"You take two more steps and I'll see!" Shen Lansui urged with a smile.
"good."
Lu Xingyue took two more steps obediently. If you don't look carefully, you can't see the limp at all. He was almost the same as a normal person, except that he walked a little slower.
Shen Lansui's face was filled with joy, her eyes reflected the sunlight, burning brightly, she said softly: "It's great."
Feeling that it wasn't enough, she repeated, "That's great."
Lu Xingyue was not that happy when he came out of the medicine hall, but at this moment, facing the glow of the sky and Shen Lansui's bright smile, he suddenly felt that people could be a little happier.
Shen Lansui laughed while backing up and walking forward. If he was not careful, he would hit the screen wall. Lu Xingyue stepped forward quickly, took the person back to him with his long arms, and said in a deep voice: "Watch the road."
His big palms were holding her waist through the clothes. Shen Lansui straightened his body subconsciously. The distance between the two of them was not retreating but increasing. The two little girls were reflected in those usually calm eyes. This feeling Very subtle.
Her heart seemed to be hit head-on by a light cloud.
"Lu Xingyue..."
"Um?"
Lu Xingyue stared at her doubtfully.
"Why don't you ask me why I came back now?"
When Shen Lansui stood up straight, Lu Xingyue withdrew his hand, and the two walked side by side. (End of chapter)
