The next day, seeing no one around, he plunged into the No. [-] room assigned to Ruan Xiangrong.

After Ruan Xiang closed the door, he went to push open the tightly closed casement.

Sitting on the sandalwood chair, I couldn't help but raise my hand to block the sun. The light on my eyelids suddenly dimmed.

Ruan Xiangrong leaned against the window and laughed out loud.

I frowned and said, "What are you laughing at?"

He replied unhurriedly, "Look at you, who can link you with the imperial court criminals."

"What's wrong with my appearance!" I stared dissatisfied.

His slender fingers touched the center of my eyebrows, and he turned his body towards the window.

His back is particularly slender, upright yet beautiful.

"Last night...how was it?" He asked tentatively, but his tone was calm.

I squinted at him, "What else, don't you know?"

After speaking, both of them are silent.

I pretended to be casual and asked, "I was able to escape because of you, why did the emperor let you out at this time."

On the contrary, he was obviously at a loss for words, and he replied in a blunt manner, "Ah, yes, something is wrong..." Turning around suddenly, he said with a smile, "Can you believe it, the emperor actually nominated Shangguan to be the servant of the Ministry of War!"

I knew in my heart that if it was a major matter related to the country, it would be impossible for him to reveal half of it according to his personality of being loyal to the king and reporting to the master, so I didn't force it anymore.And according to my previous experience, the chess played by Zhao Yulin is extremely deep, and he always pays attention to the overall development.Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine that his purpose of this move may not be to restrain his party members from each other.So I said unintentionally, "It seems that the emperor is determined to trust Lord Shangguan."

"It's hard to say. According to the emperor's temperament, as long as he dares to use it, there is a way to cure him."

"Too……"

Speaking of this, the atmosphere felt heavy again, and it was even more speechless.

Suddenly, he said again, "Lin Cheng, do you still remember Jiu Fan Dan?"

This question was asked suddenly, I was unconsciously stunned for a long time, and it took me a long time before I muttered, "How could I forget."

"Oh? So, you blame me."

Knowing what he was referring to, I sighed, obviously I must save you, "I won't blame you."

"I'm not talking about that."

"Why?!"

"I prevent you from meeting He Tang, and prevent you from doing business with him."

When I mentioned this, I kept silent.

He also sighed, "Sure enough, you are still blaming me."

I quickly jumped up, "No, no, it's just a pity."

"Lin Teng, it doesn't matter if you listen or not. Now that you have left the court and have no one to take care of you, you have to be more cautious in everything and not act emotionally. That guy He Tang is by no means simple. No matter what his intentions are, think about it. The first time you were asked to help He Yi seize the throne of Miao King, and the last time it was about the Meilu Collection, it is considered even, but what will be the next time?"

"I understand this..."

He looked back suddenly, "Lin Teng, is appearance really that important?"

Is it important?

No.

It's just that I hate me who still asks to beg for my sincerity even though it's like this.

Although he didn't admit it in the past, he knew that some of himself was for Shangguan enamel.

It is different now, but that obsession has not changed.

I'm just Lin Teng, not an ugly wife who is competing with so-and-so, and I'm not the focus of people's heated discussions in the world.

These can only be thought in my heart, and I have no intention of speaking to anyone.

When he came back to his senses, he was staring at me intently, and he seemed to have seen something, and he simply said, "Okay, let me tell you one more thing."

I felt like I was fighting.

He walked over slowly and put his hands on my shoulders.

"About the tragedy of the Lin family's extermination four years ago, there are actually many doubts. Back then, the Jiyuan Villa did receive a notice from the Meilian Sect to seize the Jiyuanbi, so the world believed that all crimes were committed by the Meilian Sect. However, a fisherman returning late at night witnessed a strange-looking monster hovering in the high-speed flames that night. This kind of talk is too absurd, so no one believes it."

I took it for granted, "That's right, it's totally unbelievable."

Directly ignoring my words, he continued, "Those who are interested later will describe the monster based on the fisherman's description. It has long horns and mane on its head, and it has a fierce expression."

I laughed dumbly, "You don't mean to say that this guy committed a heinous crime, do you?"

He made a "listen to me" gesture, "I was lucky enough to see that painting in the Jiangnan area, and it was just a joke at the time. Until..."

His tone paused for a while, and I couldn't help but suffocate, waiting for him to continue.

"Until that day, I saw the tattoo on He Tang's back, and the black pattern on the wall of the Cold Food Palace."

"Could it be?!" My heart started beating wildly.

"Yes, it's the same totem, exactly."

Why are you telling me now.

In fact, I would rather you never know, so that it is possible to protect you from the worldly world.

It's just that Ruan Xiangrong didn't give such an answer when I questioned him.

Only after many years, such a sigh of emotion.

If not, would the result be different.

Meng Youting said, "Lin Teng, you have seen the real rivers and lakes."

I don't know what it means.

Above the Five Elements Hall in Fuyun Building.

Meng Youting is in the high seat, I'm sitting in the lower seat, and next to me are all the principals in the Fuyun Building, while Shangguan Fangang and Ruan Xiangrong are sitting in the VIP seat.

The fact that the two of them will come to this Fuyun Tower is nothing more than the fact that the imperial court and Jianghu martial arts are discussing important matters, so I am not surprised that there will be such a scene.

As for why I appear here, it's all because of Meng Youting's words.

When Ruan Xiangrong saw me, his body was visibly stagnant, and he still sat quietly.

Shangguan Fanglan sarcastically said, "There are so many trifles in Jianghu, it's hard for Leader Meng to spare time."

Meng Youting took a sip of tea, "The two brothers have been here for a long time, but Meng has not entertained you well, so please take care of me."

Meng Youting, Ruan Xiangrong, and Shangguan Fangang had some friendship, that's why there was a farce of "Fighting Four Beauties" before.But today's position involves the interests of all parties, and it is inevitable that there is some alienation.And at this time, Meng Youting can still say "Brother Taiwan", it is really not shallow.

Ruan Xiangrong didn't seem to care about it, "It's easy to say, but the emperor's side..."

"Hey, let's not talk about world affairs today, just to disturb people's interest." Meng Youting lightly put down the teacup, but turned to me, "Isn't it, Lin Cheng?"

I gritted my teeth and endured the internal injury. This fox just kicked the ball to me casually.Knowing that in front of all the people in Fuyunlou, it is impossible for me to dismantle him, and Ruan Xiangrong and Shangguan have to give me face.

I also picked up the tea and took a sip, and it took me a long time to put down the cup, and I naturally catered, "It makes sense, Lin Cheng hates serious things the most, so don't worry about it, don't mention it."

Meng Youting clapped his hands and laughed, "Lin Cheng, you still know my heart best."

"It's just!" I interrupted hastily, "As we all know, Mr. Ruan is famous for his eloquence and witty words. His words should not be boring. Why don't the leader give him a chance to show himself."

Meng Youting's expression was dark and cold, and he said lightly, "In that case, Brother Ruan might as well tell some jokes to open my eyes."

It is extremely disrespectful to classify important political affairs as a joke, but that person is Meng Youting, no one can do anything about it.

Ruan Xiangrong still looked at me gratefully, and then said seriously, "I don't know if the leader has heard about a newly emerging organization in the Jianghu?"
