"How about what?"
Liu Ruyan glared at her angrily, then shook the handkerchief in her hand and looked at the three of them angrily.
"That man is like a piece of wood. A beautiful woman like me, Liu Ruyan, fell in front of him, and he didn't even help me. It's so abominable. I will avenge this sooner or later."
After saying this, she twisted her slender waist and prepared to leave, but Liu Wei and three others blocked her way.
"You failed to do what we told you, so take out the one hundred taels of silver."
Ruyan looked at the three of them with cold eyes, rolled his eyes and said coldly:
"I'm not done yet. You didn't ask me to do it in one day. You have to take your time. Why rush?"
With these words, she shook the handkerchief again and left proudly, leaving Liu Wei, Daming, and Xiaobai in a daze, messy in the wind...
Leng Yu didn't pay attention to the arrival of the woman in the flower house, but Luo Lan felt a little uneasy.
Sitting in the main hall, she took a sip of water. Just as she was about to put down the teacup, Ah Hong walked in and whispered to her:
"Miss, we found it."
Luo Lan's eyes suddenly tightened, she glanced at Leng Yu, nodded to her and said:
"Say it!"
"My lady guessed it right. Those two women didn't come to cause trouble for no reason. Not long after they left the Huichun Hall, they said a few words to the three men. I didn't hear what they said clearly, but..."
"but what?"
Luo Lan couldn't wait to ask, "Say quickly."
"But among those three people, one of them is the one named Liu."
Hearing this, Luo Lan's eyes burned brightly, but there was also a hint of confusion.
When Leng Yu saw this, he looked at Luo Lan and asked,
"Lan'er, what's going on? Who's surnamed Liu?"
Seeing that she could no longer hide the matter, Luo Lan told her about Liu Wei's previous assassination.
Hearing this, Leng Yu's face suddenly darkened, and his eyes became as deep as a wolf's. He thought for a while, and then asked:
"Who wants to assassinate you?"
Luo Lan shook his head, with a hint of confusion in his watery, almond-shaped eyes.
"I don't know. He doesn't seem to know us, otherwise he wouldn't have tried to get close to us first, and then carried out the assassination operation after confirming my identity. So I think this person must have come prepared. As for who sent him, I can’t think of it.”
Hearing what she said, Leng Yu's brows tightened, a trace of clarity returned to his eyes, and he said with a cold face:
"I will investigate this matter carefully, but I don't understand, since he wanted to kill you, why did he send two women from the flower house? What does this mean?"
Regarding this question, Luo Lan lowered her eyelashes, pondered for a long time, and then shook her head vigorously.
"I can't think of it either."
At this time, A Cai interjected:
"I think they wanted to kill the young lady, but seeing that the young master was back, they couldn't do anything, so they let the two women sneak in with us and look for an opportunity to kill her."
"Will not."
Ah Hong shook his head and interrupted her, "Those two women didn't carry any weapons. Besides, judging from their body shapes and steps, they don't know Kung Fu and won't be stupid enough to die. Therefore, they must be the ones who come." Purposeful."
Luo Lan agreed with A Hong's guess. Leng Yu pondered for a while and secretly made up his mind to find out who was going to assassinate Luo Lan. He couldn't let Luo Lan live in danger, otherwise, he would really Not daring to leave her for a moment.
Liu Wei, who was hiding in Ningluo City but did not dare to show his face, was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. When the emperor came, he asked him to take Prince Yu back as soon as possible. Twenty days have passed since he came out of the palace. Now, he didn't dare to assassinate Luo Lan, and there was no way to let Leng Yu return to the palace. If he had known this, he shouldn't have rushed to assassinate Luo Lan. In that way, he could at least walk in Ningluo City with integrity.
It's better now. I don't dare to appear in front of Luo Lan, so I can only do some small tricks secretly.
Thinking of this, he could only sigh secretly.
Da Ming and Xiao Bai just came back from outside. Seeing him sitting there, they secretly felt sorry for him. They stepped forward and clasped their fists, saying:
"Sir, we are back."
"how's it going?"
Liu Wei knew that there was little hope for the two of them to go out to do something, so he didn't have much interest in it and couldn't even bring himself to talk.
"We searched around the city and couldn't find a suitable candidate, but I asked Liu Ruyan to go to the Huichun Hall again. I told her that if she can't sneak into the Huichun Hall again, we will give her the money we gave her Want to come back,"
"What's the use?"
Liu Wei sighed helplessly, "Now we have to think about how to report to the emperor and how to get Prince Yu to return to the capital. If it doesn't work, we have to do it forcefully."
Having said this, he looked up at Da Ming and Xiao Bai and said solemnly:
"We don't have much time. We have less than a month to celebrate the New Year. We must complete the tasks assigned by the Emperor before the New Year. Because this year is different from the past, the Emperor has invited various Tibetan kings to Beijing. So, starting from today, you two Go and guard the door of Huichun Hall. If that woman goes out alone, we will take action. We must make the prince return to the palace as soon as possible."
Hearing what he said, Da Ming and Xiao Bai's eyes were filled with sinister looks, and they nodded heavily together.
"Okay, I understand."
Although Liu Wei and the other three are palace guards, they often carry out special tasks under the orders of the emperor. Let them do the killing job, which can be said to be easy for them to do.
Inside the main hall of Huichun Hall
There were not many patients today, so Luo Lan returned to the main hall to rest early. As soon as she stretched, Leng Yu came over and took her hand.
"Lan'er, it is said that there is a big market in Ningluo City today, shall we go and have a look?"
"ah?"
Luo Lan looked at him in surprise, "Don't you like to join in the fun? Why do you want to go to the market?"
"New Year is coming soon, I want to buy you a gift..."
Before he finished speaking, A Cai pouted and walked in angrily.
Seeing her look like this, Luo Lan asked in confusion:
"You can tie up a donkey with a pouty mouth. Who messed with you?"
A Cai rubbed her nose and said angrily:
"Miss, that Liu Ruyan is here again, and... and she's crying and can't go away. What should I do?"
Hearing what she said, Leng Yu's brows knitted together, Luo Lan's smart eyes turned, took Leng Yu's hand, and said with curiosity:
"Let's go! Let's go see who she is from."
After saying this, the two of them walked out of the main hall door hand in hand and walked into the courtyard.
Sure enough, at this time, Liu Ruyan was sitting on the ground with a bundle in front of her, her hair unkempt, and the girl beside her was gone. She squinted and saw Luo Lan and Leng Yu coming, and she suddenly burst into tears. ,
"Who can pity me? I am helpless here in Ningluo City. In such a cold weather, I will freeze to death and starve to death."
Seeing that there was a hint of loneliness in her cries, Luo Lan and Leng Yu looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
Luo Lan couldn't help but ask:
"What’s wrong with you?"
