Sure enough, the next morning, Lan Wanyun knocked on the door of the Lin Mansion again, and Nanny Qi led her to the vacant house on the west side and left her there for the whole day.

After it got dark, Lan Wanyun said goodbye to Madam Qi with a smile, and the west gate of the Lin Mansion had just closed.

Lan Wanyun walked a few steps away, her expression changed instantly, and she cursed:

"This bitch, when I succeed, I will make up for the loss of face she made me wait for these two days, and I will torture her well to appease my anger..."

"oops……"

A stone flew in from somewhere and landed at Lan Wanyun's feet. She lost her balance and fell to the ground.

The old woman who was supporting her also fell heavily and said she sprained her foot.

Seeing this, the servant who came with them hurried to help Lan Wanyun and the old woman.

Lan Wanyun said angrily: "I should have checked the almanac before going out today. I fell down on a good road. It's really bad luck to go out. It's all that bad bitch who brought bad luck to me..."

Supported by a servant, Lan Wanyun rubbed her right hip and limped, cursing non-stop.

See the three people walk away.

Two men in night clothes disappeared into the night.

Not long after, two men in night clothes jumped in through the back window of Prince An's bedroom and reported to Prince An what had happened truthfully.

Prince An rubbed his fingers for a few times and waved his hand, saying, "You two should protect Miss Lin. There is no need to report such trivial matters back to the palace to the prince."

These two were the secret guards that Prince An had kept for many years. After they clasped their fists and received the order, they disappeared.

Prince An turned around and handed the housekeeper a folded piece of rice paper, saying, "Tomorrow you will go find Doctor Yan in person and ask him to pass it to Lin Luoling. She is a smart person and will naturally understand what to do."

The butler responded, then took out two tiny rolled-up pieces of paper from his bosom and said, "A secret letter from the capital."

Prince An opened it and a smile spread across his lips. Just as he burned the secret letter, the voice of Princess July came from outside the door.

"Cousin, I've been idle in the mansion for two days. It's really boring. Would you like to take me to Luo River for a night boat ride?"

……

The next day, word spread among the people that Prince An and Princess July were assassinated while they were boating on the Luo River last night.

The news spread around and reached Lin Luoling's ears. It had become the news that Prince An and Princess July were assassinated last night. Prince An was seriously injured, and Princess July fell into the Luo River and her whereabouts were unknown.

Young Master Jiang, who was sitting nearby roasting venison, took a piece of roasted meat, rolled it in salt, and put it in his mouth. It hissed twice from the heat, and he sighed:

"It's really not easy for His Royal Highness Prince An to live to this day! How many assassination attempts have he faced?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped his thigh, stood up, looked at the maid who had just said this, and asked, "What did you just say? Princess July fell into the Luo River and her whereabouts are unknown?"

Chen Yin picked up a piece of meat and said with a frown, "Why is Young Master Jiang so excited?"

Jiang Chi said, "How can I not be excited? She hasn't even competed with me in pitching pots yet."

After that, Jiang Chi said, "You two eat first, don't eat it all, save some for me to eat when I come back. I'm going to Luohe to take a look."

Before he could finish his words, Jiang Chi had already run out.

Seeing this, the maid ran after him, shouting, "Young Master Jiang, please slow down. If you want to leave the house, ask the servant to harness the carriage. This has caused a big commotion, and now the city gates are closed."

Chen Yin blew the roasted venison slowly and asked, "Sister Ling'er, don't you want to go and take a look?"

Lin Luoling pushed a cup of fruit wine in front of Chen Yin, raised the cup and said, "If it is really as serious as that maid said, Jingxuzhou will not just be as simple as closing the city gates."

Chen Yin smiled and said, "You and I can see that, but Young Master Jiang took it seriously. Such a smart person made such a low-level mistake. Haha... It's interesting!

The wife of Ningyuan Marquis is still trying to match you up with Young Master Jiang, but in my opinion, it's not appropriate."

Having said that, Chen Yin said no more and clinked glasses with Lin Luoling.

Lin Luoling drank the fruit wine and said honestly, "I have long lost interest in love and marriage. Young Master Jiang and I must have a deep bond as siblings!"

"What about Zhu Xianzhi?" Shen Yin understood the implication of Lin Luoling's words and asked.

Lin Luoling raised a cold arc at his lips. Seeing that there was no one else in the room, he whispered in Chen Yin's ear:

"He! He has done too many bad things. Who knows, he might be taken away by the King of Hell one day. I won't collect his body for him anyway."

Chen Yin's eyes narrowed. She had always known that Lin Luoling was a kind-hearted person. The fact that Lin Luoling said such a thing was enough to show how much Lin Luoling hated Zhu Xianzhi.

Chen Yin was about to open his lips to ask.

Doctor Yan came in breathlessly, holding onto the door frame, wiping his sweat, and said, "Miss...Miss, you are so hard for me to find. Why are you hiding here?"

Before Lin Luoling could respond, Doctor Yan walked forward, took out a folded piece of paper from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Lin Luoling.

Lin Luoling opened it and took a look.

Blank!

She instantly understood that this was another message from Prince An, but she pretended to be surprised, holding the paper in the light, and asked, "Doctor Yan, why did you give me a blank piece of rice paper?"

Doctor Yan was startled, and he stepped forward to look at it carefully for a long while, wondering, "The housekeeper of Prince An's Mansion said that this was an urgent letter and asked me to give it to the young lady. Could it be that I took the wrong letter?"

Chen Yin knew the secret and poured a cup of tea for Doctor Yan, saying, "Drink some tea and relax, Mr. Yan."

Doctor Yan took the teacup and just took a sip when he heard Shen Yin say, "The maid in the mansion said that Prince An and Princess July were assassinated in Luo River last night. Prince An was seriously injured, and Princess July's whereabouts are still unknown.

I guess Mr. Yan must have been invited to Prince An's Mansion last night and stayed awake all night, right? The housekeeper of Prince An's Mansion might have taken the wrong letter in a hurry, which is normal. "

Doctor Yan was furious when he heard this: "Who is talking nonsense? The assassination was true, and it was also true that His Royal Highness Prince An was injured, but it was not serious. He just fell while avoiding the assassin and had some scratches on his right wrist.

As for Princess July falling into the water, that is pure nonsense. When I was bandaging Prince An's wound last night, Princess July was right beside him."

Shen Yin sighed, "So this rumor is not to be believed. Young Master Jiang might have made this trip in vain."

Lin Luoling stood up and said, "Since something happened in Prince An's Mansion, it is common for the housekeeper to take the wrong letter. If there is really an emergency, he will naturally look for Old Yan again. Old Yan does not need to bother asking about this matter."

Hearing this, Doctor Yan nodded, said goodbye, and turned to leave.

Lin Luoling took a clay pot for boiling tea, placed it on the stove, and when the water boiled, placed a blank piece of rice paper on it.

The words immediately appeared on the rice paper.

Lin Luoling took a look and found that it was the detailed address of two shops.

Her eyebrows moved slightly, and after a little thought, she immediately understood what Prince An meant.

Two days later, Emperor Deshun learned that Prince An had been assassinated. He was furious and severely reprimanded Cao Peng, the governor of Xuzhou in the capital, on the letter of greeting.

On the surface, he said that Cao Peng failed to protect Princess July, but in fact he felt sorry for Prince An.

Within two days, the Secretariat sent Cao Peng's letter of greeting, together with the empress dowager's imperial edict, to Xuzhou in the capital.
