Huanyu woke up from her sleep, thinking about what happened last night. She felt her heart beating wildly, and jumped down from the Jintao. She rushed to the door of the room and shouted: "Jiao Xing! Jiao Xing!..."
She could only call her Jiao Xing; because Xiang Yun was assigned by Ling Yun to be on duty in the garden outside a few days ago.
The garden in front was short of manpower during this period and was really too busy. Ling Yun obtained Huan Yu's consent and assigned her to take over temporarily.
It seemed like they were randomly selected; but in fact, Ling Yun did it intentionally. Because he didn't want one more person to know his whereabouts that night.
It's not that he doubted her or didn't trust her, he just became more defensive. After all, the more people know, the more risk it will be leaked. He did this just to minimize the risk.
Of course, Huanyu didn't know what he was thinking.
But Huanyu called out "Jiao Xing" angrily and repeatedly. Jiao Xing responded: "Princess, do you have any orders?"
Huan Yu was still confused at this time, "Where is the county horse?"
Jiaoxing's eyes turned like water, and she lowered her voice and said, "The county horse said last night that he had to go out for something, and asked the servants to serve the princess well and not to tell anyone."
Huanyu gently pressed his head, which was still a little hazy, and asked, "Did he say anything else before leaving?"
Jiao Xing shook her head and said, "I have asked you to keep this matter a secret. You are not allowed to tell anyone except the princess."
Huanyu's crystal eyes looked over meaningfully, with a somewhat probing meaning: "Jiao Xing, it seems that Jun Ma trusts you very much!"
Jiao Xing saw the condescension on the face of the princess, and couldn't help lowering her head in panic, and said in panic: "It is the slave's duty to serve the princess and the princess wholeheartedly. Apart from this, I dare not do anything else." Other ideas.”
When Huan Yu saw Jiao Xing's frightened face, she felt pity in her heart. She sighed softly and asked, "Where is the county horse? Has he come back?"
Jiao Xing lowered her eyebrows and said, "The princess has come back a long time ago. Seeing that the princess has not yet woken up, she did not disturb her and was sitting in the hall outside."
Huan Yu raised his brows, and his star-like eyes flashed with brilliance: "Really? Let him in quickly!"
Jiao Xing responded, lowered her head and went out.
After a while, Ling Yun walked in with a lonely look, one step at a time, and his movements seemed a little difficult.
Huan Yu hurriedly stepped forward to support him and asked, "Jun Ma, what's wrong with you?"
Ling Yun slowly sat down, his movements seemed a bit sluggish; he turned his face and whispered to Jiao Xing: "Jiao Xing, you go out first."
Jiao Xing nodded and lowered her eyebrows and said "Yes" before Gong Gong Jinjin stepped back.
Ling Yun went out and carefully inspected the surroundings of Huanyun Pavilion to confirm that no one was listening within a few steps before returning to the dormitory and carefully closing the door.
Now there are only two people in the room, Ling Yun and Huan Yu.
Ling Yun's eyes narrowed slightly and he said, "Princess Princess, do you know what I did last night?"
Huan Yu's clear and bright eyes stared at him intently.
Ling Yun said: "I went to Tianlao and tried to rescue Du Zhenghai, but I failed. I was ambushed by them and almost lost my life."
Huan Yu's beautiful eyes widened in shock, "What? Prison robbery?..."
Ling Yun smiled bitterly: "That's right. You and I are husband and wife, and we shouldn't hide anything from each other, so I will tell you everything."
Then, he recounted how he went to Tianlao to rob the prison last night, was plotted by Ying Chuanlin to "fall down in the wind at ten steps", and then was surrounded by guards and almost died on the spot.
Later, he also briefly told her about Lian Nanchun's rescue and the treatment of his injuries. During the statement, of course, he carefully omitted Lian Nanchun's name and only said that it was before. A friend from the world.
Huanyu was stunned and speechless for a moment.
No wonder Ling Yun said those words to her with a solemn expression last night. It turned out to be like this!
Seeing Huan Yu's beautiful face turn pale, Ling Yun was speechless for a long time. He raised his lips disapprovingly and said, "Princess, are you afraid?"
It took Huanyu a long time to calm down and murmured: "Are you...are you crazy? Are you desperate for your life? You are the commander of the guards of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Punishment. How can you know the law, break the law, and do such lawless things?"
Ling Yun's eyes were quiet and distant, and he said slowly: "You may not understand some things, but I know that I have to do this."
Huan Yu stared at Ling Yun in astonishment and said, "Why?..."
Ling Yun avoided her eyes full of resentment, looked away with a pair of clear eyes indifferently, and said in a calm tone: "Du Zhenghai is a very good friend of mine. When we were at Feiyun Villa, if he hadn't helped us, we would have If I couldn’t escape from that devil’s cave, I wouldn’t be here today.”
He paused and then said: "A drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring. Now that he is in trouble, if I stand by and ignore it, I will be uneasy for the rest of my life..."
Huanyu glanced over with disdain with her narrow eyes, "Is that all?..."
Ling Yun lowered his eyelids, his long eyelashes covering the obscure emotions in his eyes, and said silently: "Also, his mother Ge Shi once begged me sadly before she died, that she must protect her son. I can't let her down. Entrust..."
Huan Yu glanced sideways at him, curled her lips contemptuously and said, "Who are you, Ge? You don't need to risk your life desperately, right? How dangerous is Tianlao? Don’t you know, why would you want to die?
"Besides, who are Yu Ting and Ying Chuan Lin? Can they let this matter go? If he finds any clues or you leave any clue to them, then you will be dead!..."
The more Huan Yu spoke, the angrier she became. Tears welled up in her eyes and her voice trembled, "What will I do if you have any shortcomings? Ling Yun, you are too selfish. You only care about your own feelings and don't care about my heart at all. I hate you so much!..." She said, turned around, covered her face and started crying.
Her weak shoulders were like leaves messed up in the wind, quivering as if she had been greatly wronged. Her bowels were shaking, she was exchanging tears, and she was sobbing non-stop.
Ling Yun hates seeing women cry the most, especially Huan Yu's endless, lingering crying.
He was at a loss for a moment and didn't know how to comfort her. His handsome face flushed with anxiety and he said incoherently: "Princess, am I not fine now? What are you doing? Okay, I was wrong. ...I promise there won't be a next time, please don't cry..."
As she was talking, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside. Ling Yun quickly raised his hand to signal her to stop and said coldly: "Who?"
Jiao Xing walked in with Lu Wenzheng's servant Rong'er.
Rong'er first saluted Ling Yun and Princess Huanyu, and then said respectfully: "Commander Ling, Master Lu asked you to come over."
"Master Lu is looking for me?..." Ling Yun couldn't help but feel his heart sink, "Rong'er, do you know what's going on?"
Rong'er shook his head and said, "I don't know about this little one, but when I passed by the living room just now, I seemed to have heard that Master He and Master Ying from the Marquis' Mansion were here..."
Huanyu's face suddenly changed, and she said in a trembling voice: "What?... Commander Ma, you must not go, there must be nothing good for them two coming to the house!"
Ling Yunruo smiled nonchalantly and said to Rong'er: "Rong'er, go back and report to Mr. Lu first, and then I'll change my clothes and I'll be here later."
Rong'er responded and turned around; Jiao Xing also bowed to the two of them and followed them out.
Huan Yu said: "Jun Ma, do you really want to go?"
Ling Yun said: "What do you think! If I don't go, won't it make them suspect that I am a guilty thief?"
"But..." Huanyu was so nervous that sweat started to form on the tip of her nose, and she looked like she was hesitating to speak.
Ling Yun looked at her cute and cute expression and couldn't help but smile.
He lightly tapped Huan Yu's nose and said: "Silly girl, don't be afraid, nothing will happen! Besides, I don't have anything in their hands, as long as you can prove it to me..."
As he spoke, he turned his cunning eyes and whispered a few words in Huanyu's ear.
Huan Yu held her breath and listened quietly, nodding her head.
Her originally dim eyes became brighter, like the glistening autumn water, and her pretty face, as bright as a peach blossom, also showed a knowing and comfortable smile...
In the living room of Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice.
Lu Wenzheng was accompanying He Yuting and Ying Chuanlin to drink tea and chat.
It turns out that Ying Chuanlin has always been worried about the robbery in the prison and the escape of the thieves last night.
The next day, a close confidant next to him (a disciple of Tianxiao who was arranged by Li Ruiyun to help him) secretly told him something: According to a disciple of Tianxiao who was undercover in Junma Mansion, Ling Yun had not slept all night last night. Return.
Ying Chuanlin couldn't help but sneer secretly: "Ling Yun, it's your time to die!"
So he came directly to He Yuting and repeatedly encouraged He Yuting to go with him to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice to find out what was going on.
In this way, the two came to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice. Taking advantage of the opportunity of conversation, the topic gradually turned to Ling Yun.
He Yuting's deep eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "Last night, someone went to Tianlao to rob the prison. I wonder if Mr. Lu heard about it?"
Lu Wenzheng said: "I just heard them talk about this this morning - what's wrong, Master He? Is there any progress on this matter?"
He Yuting shook his head; he considered the way and tone of his words, and said slowly: "Not yet. But according to the memories of the guards, jailers and others who witnessed the scene, the body of the man who was so bold and robbed the prison and caused trouble last night was unknown. The shape and features are actually somewhat similar to... Commander Ling! - Mr. Lu, don’t you think it’s funny?”
Lu Wenzheng's face darkened and he said, "I wonder what Lord He means by this? Commander Ling was in the Junma Mansion last night. Besides, there are many people with similar appearance in the world. Just based on this wild guess, you can't make a fool of yourself." Regarding your remarks, Master He came here with murderous intent to raise an army to investigate, isn't it a bit of a fuss?"
Lu Wenzheng's words were sharp and merciless; He Yuting, who had always been sophisticated and calm, was choked for a moment. His face was dark, his mouth was speechless, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
When Ying Chuanlin saw this, his expression twisted for a moment, and then he laughed slowly, "Really, Master Lu, are you sure that Commander Ling was at the Junma Mansion last night? Then please ask Commander Ling to come out and see everything, and everything will be clear. Are you sure?"
