Lu Yuan had only one thought at the moment, and that was to kill the dragon!

"Brother, let me do it."

Meng Qianqian reached for the medicine bottle.

Chen Long said: "It doesn't matter. I've been through this all these years alone anyway."

Lu Yuan: "You'll die if you don't play the victim, right?"

Chen Long said to Lu Yuan, "You were mean to me, but you are not allowed to be mean to her again."

Lu Yuan couldn't hold down the knife anymore.

Meng Qianqian treated Chen Long's injuries, wrapped them with gauze, and told Chen Long not to let the affected area come into contact with water or touch a knife or sword.

Lu Yuan snorted, "It's not the first time he's been hurt, why is he pretending to be weak?"

It's just a minor skin injury, no broken bones!

Chen Long immediately said: "This little thing won't cause any trouble."

Meng Qianqian tied the gauze and said, "How can it not be a problem? Don't I know you well? You don't take care of your body at all. You always ignore your injuries."

Lu Yuan: "Meng Xiaojiu, I am also injured."

Meng Qianqian blinked: "Heartbroken?"

Lu Yuan: “…”

I was completely defeated in this round with my brother-in-law.

Lu Yuan's face was dark until he returned to the main courtyard.

Meng Qianqian smiled awkwardly: "Husband, please sit down and I will heal you."

Lu Yuan said coldly: "This governor does not deserve to be injured!"

Meng Qianqian grabbed his arm and said, "I was wrong, I was wrong. In order not to hurt me, you cut your own tendons and veins, and your internal injuries have not healed yet."

Lu Yuan snorted coldly: "Humph."

Meng Qianqian pulled him to sit on the stool, took out the silver needle, rolled up the sleeve of his right arm, and gently blew on the back of his hand: "I will be gentle in a while, it won't hurt at all."

Lu Yuan: "Make another note."

Meng Qianqian shuddered.

Why another one?

Endless?

"do you have any opinion?"

"Xiaojiu doesn't dare."

Meng Qianqian muttered and began to give acupuncture to Lu Yuan.

Thinking of something, she asked, "What did you say to your brother just now? He looked very confused when I went in."

Lu Yuan glanced at her and said, "Since you've seen it, why don't you ask him in person?"

Meng Qianqian sighed: "He obviously doesn't want to say it, I can't force him."

Lu Yuan knew that she was very meticulous and some things could not be hidden from her. Besides, there was no need to hide them.

Lu Yuan told Chen Long about his conversation.

Meng Qianqian was surprised: "You mean, brother found new evidence and planned to use it to negotiate with Prime Minister Xun?"

Lu Yuan said: "It is unknown whether Chen Long found the evidence."

Meng Qianqian murmured, "There was another person in the secret passage. Did he help brother? He was the one who found the evidence. He was the one who gave brother advice on how to negotiate with the Prime Minister. He even told brother not to give you the evidence first, not even to show it, lest the Prime Minister see through it. This person... really understands brother."

Prime Minister Xun dared to use Chen Long because Chen Long was simple-minded. As long as he could find Chen Long's weak point, he could completely control Chen Long.

Lu Yuan continued, "I even suspect that the exit was found by that person for Chen Long."

"why?"

Meng Qianqian asked.

Lu Yuan said expressionlessly: "Chen Long doesn't have the brains. That guy obviously traded his brains for martial arts."

Meng Qianqian: Are you praising my brother or disparaging him?

"Is it the man who followed us in the secret passage?"

She asked.

She remembered that when they entered the secret room to look for evidence, Lu Yuan shot a dart outside the secret room.

Later they chased out but still didn't see anyone.

Lu Yuan said: "It's probably him."

Meng Qianqian didn't see it, but he clearly glimpsed a human figure in the wolf urine. He was sure someone was following them.

However, the other party didn't seem to have any ill will towards them, so he didn't chase after him.

"Speaking of which, I actually met someone during the autumn hunt."

Meng Qianqian told the story of how she fell off a cliff and how someone helped her when she was attacked by a hidden arrow.

"Although I only saw footprints the second time, I felt it was the same person. Unfortunately, his appearance and voice were destroyed, so I couldn't really tell who he was."

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and analyzed: "The first time he saved you, it can be said that he was just passing by and it was a coincidence, but the second time, he must have been following you."

Meng Qianqian nodded in agreement. "Do you think he is the Twelve Guards that Lin Wan'er was waiting for? He was the one who told Lin Wan'er that Haizhu was a traitor, and he was the one who gave Lin Wan'er the box with the poem lock. I had been wondering why it was an empty box before. It was not until I saw the exact same poem lock in the secret room of the Prime Minister's Mansion that I suspected he was reminding us that the evidence of the Prime Minister's crime was hidden in the box with the poem lock."

Lu Yuan hummed: "In that case, the evidence in Chen Long's hand must have been found in the locked box where the poem was hidden."

Meng Qianqian hesitated and said, "It seems like my brother can't do it on his own."

At this point, Meng Qianqian suddenly thought of something and looked at Lu Yuan in shock, "Wait, you didn't deliberately leave my brother alone in the secret passage?"

Lu Yuan did not deny it.

Meng Qianqian opened her eyes wide: "It's true..."

Lu Yuan said calmly: "If we don't keep Chen Long, how can we lure him out? Chen Long can't get out by himself, and he can't let Chen Long be trapped in the secret passage forever."

Meng Qianqian asked: "What if he just refuses to show up?"

Lu Yuan said: "Chen Long is not good at strategy, but his martial arts are second to none. Sooner or later he will find out that there are others in the secret passage."

Meng Qianqian sighed sincerely: "It really has nothing left out."

Fortunately, he is my employer, not my enemy. Look how meticulous his mind is!

Lu Yuan added: "At the moment, it seems that he also wants to overthrow the Prime Minister. We don't have to insist on making him show up."

Meng Qianqian nodded again: "I just want to know, which Twelve Guards is he? Why doesn't he want to see us?"

Lu Yuan picked up the teacup and took a sip: "My appearance and voice have been ruined. If it were me, I wouldn't want to see my old friend again."

-

Bai Yuwei had a nightmare and came to find Meng Qianqian because she was scared awake.

Therefore, after treating Lu Yuan’s injuries, Meng Qianqian went to Bai Yuwei’s house.

I never thought the little girl was not in bed.

Nanny Wan pointed to Tan'er's room.

When Meng Qianqian opened the door, she saw the two little girls, who were always pinching each other, sleeping soundly with their heads against each other.

They are all children.

Meng Qianqian smiled, walked forward gently, pulled the quilt for the two of them, and tucked in the corners.

She touched the back of their necks again to make sure they were not sweating, then she lowered the curtain and left the room.

As soon as I arrived at the corridor, I saw Nanny Li and Nanny Wan were there.

She asked curiously, "Mammy, Mammy Wan, why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Madam Li said, "Miss, go to sleep. We will watch over Master."

Meng Qianqian looked towards the small kitchen again. It was brightly lit and it was Madam Du and Madam Hu who were busy in front of the stove.

Meng Qianqian joked, "He has his own people in the mansion to take care of him. You are my companions, so you don't have to serve him."

Nanny Li said sternly, "You can't say that!"

Meng Qianqian said with a smile: "Okay, okay, he is very popular. But by the way, Mammy, you didn't favor him like this before."

Nanny Li said, "When have I not supported the uncle? The uncle is much more sensible than the young lady."

Meng Qianqian: Well, she is being disliked.

-

Meng Qianqian was busy all day and fell asleep as soon as she lay down.

Someone was still waiting for him to pay back his debt. When he turned his head, his breathing became even.

The sky is bright.

Meng Qianqian woke up from her sleep.

When she opened her eyes, she saw someone sitting cross-legged in front of her, with his arms folded and a pair of huge dark circles under his eyes.

"Meng Xiaojiu."

"Um……"

She rubbed her eyes dazedly.

Lu Yuan said confidently: "Pay back the debt! After collecting the debt, I will go to court!"
