No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 115 White Phoenix Slave Seal (Part [-])
Although Luo Jinyan said that he would not let Luo Junyao take care of this matter, in fact, he still couldn't stand Luo Junyao pestering her and took her there.

Luo Junyao thought, maybe every high-ranking family has such a similar place, right?
Because Luo Yun, father and son are not at home all year round, it is obvious that the dungeon of the Luo family is rarely used.

The inside is quite clean, except for a little cold and damp, there is almost no scary place to be seen.

Luo Jinxing was very puzzled by Luo Jinyan's bringing his sister to such a place, but he had never been able to resist his brother, so he had to shake Jun Luo to protect him.

Before entering the dungeon, he never gave up persuading Luo Junyao to give up this trip to the dungeon.

Luo Junyao was very moved by his love and concern for his second brother, and then firmly rejected him.

Luo Jinxing was very sad about this.

My sister is disobedient.

In the innermost room of the dungeon, which was brightly lit, three people were imprisoned.

The three of them were locked in cages in three corners of the room, and Luo Junyao saw the lame man Shen Lingxiang was talking about at a glance.

Under the bright firelight, it was a middle-aged man in his fifties with sallow complexion and skinny bones.

He didn't sit on the floor like the other two roommates, but stood.

Because of a lame leg, he couldn't stand upright even though he was holding on to the railing of the cage, and it was still very conspicuous that one shoulder was high and the other was low.

But it can be clearly seen that this is a Central Plains person.

It is not the appearance of the people in the Dasheng border area, but the appearance characteristics of the people in the hinterland of the Dasheng Central Plains.

When he saw the three young men and women who walked in, he was obviously taken aback, and then his eyes fell on Luo Jinxing's face.

Luo Jinyan and Luo Junyao followed his gaze and also looked at Luo Jinxing. Luo Jinxing was baffled by the three of them. He rubbed his forehead and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You are Luo Yun's son?!" the lame man said.

"You know my father." Luo Jinyan and Luo Junyao said in unison.

The three voices sounded almost simultaneously, and the dungeon fell silent for a moment.

In terms of appearance, Luo Jinyan Xiao's mother, Luo Jinxing Xiao's father.

This person can confirm Luo Jinxing's identity at a glance, his eyes are not like ordinary spies, obviously this person knows Luo Yun.

"Are you also Luo Yun's children?" The lame man looked at Luo Jinyan and Luo Junyao, nodded after a while and said, "Yes, Luo Yun has two sons and a daughter, and you are that Luo Junyao."

Luo Junyao waved at him and said with a smile, "Then old man, can you tell us who you are?"

"Old man?" The man was taken aback for a moment, then quickly looked down at himself and sneered, "Do you think I'll tell you?"

Luo Jun said: "If you don't tell me, we can find out, it just takes a little more effort. Don't tell me, old man, do you think someone will forcefully break into the general's mansion to save you?"

The man's face changed slightly, and he shot Luo Junyao with gloomy eyes.

Luo Junyao looked at him without blinking or avoiding, as if the eyes that almost made an ordinary woman feel creepy were just ordinary in her eyes.

After a while, I heard the man laughing and saying: "Luo Yun's daughter, she is quite courageous. You are completely different from what she said."

Luo Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "The she you are talking about is my cousin Lingxiang?"

"It really is because of her!" the man said coldly, with a hint of remorse in his tone.

Luo Jinyan next to him suddenly said: "You were arrested by me last night, do you know why I only came to see you now?"

"What do you want to say?" The man stared at Luo Jinyan cautiously.

Although it was the first time meeting each other, among the three children Luo Yun seemed to be the most gentle and gentle, it was the one that made him feel the most wary.

Luo Jinyan said: "I'm looking into what this... is."

The man's eyes fell on Luo Jinyan's right hand, and he saw that he was playing with an unpretentious pendant in his hand.

His gloomy eyes narrowed, staring at Luo Jinyan and said, "What did you do to her?"

Luo Jinyan turned his head slightly and thought for a while, then smiled lightly and said, "You think... I snatched this thing from Shen Lingxiang?"

The man didn't answer, he obviously thought so.

He thought that Shen Lingxiang was accidentally followed when she went out to meet him, and was imprisoned by the Luo family after that, and the thing was forcibly taken from her.

Not all right, but not all wrong.

Luo Junyao smiled and said: "No, old man. Cousin Lingxiang gave it to elder brother. Cousin Lingxiang has not been imprisoned either. She is going to marry Mr. Xuanyu in a few days. She exchanged this pendant for this opportunity." of it."

Luo Junyao spoke seriously, half-truths and half-false words.

"What?" The few muscles on the man's sallow face twitched and twisted, making him look even more terrifying.

He grabbed the cage made of fine iron with both hands, and patted it hard twice, "She gave it to you on my own initiative?!"

The other two people in the cell were also taken aback by him. The man of the foreign race just looked at him coldly, but the simple and honest boy shrank even more into the corner in fright.

Luo Jinyan neither affirmed nor denied, but smiled lightly and said, "Do you think I won't be able to find out who you are if you don't tell me?"

The man was silent, Luo Jinyan laughed lowly, as if mocking him for not dying until the Yellow River.

"Shen, Han. Since you are dead, you shouldn't come back to life."

"you!"

Luo Jinyan said: "You probably forgot, back then... I met you. I was already 11 years old at that time."

Although the appearance of this person in front of him has changed too much, it is difficult to remember it just by looking at his appearance.

But with some other clues, I can remember it after thinking about it carefully.

This man was none other than Shen Lingxiang's biological father, Shen Han who was exiled to the border because of dereliction of duty ten years ago and later died of illness.

He obviously hasn't had a good life these years. It looks like he has passed his destiny, but in fact this person is only 38 years old now.

The lame man——Shen Han sneered, and said, "So it was you."

I did meet Luo Jinyan more than ten years ago, when he made a special trip to the border to visit Luo Yun.At that time, Luo Yun was on the front line, and in the not-so-big General's Mansion, this boy who was only in his early ten years was the master of the house.

Although there was nothing rude about the other party, he just couldn't like it.

Luo Jinyan, who was still a child, still couldn't perfectly disguise himself with a gentle and elegant appearance like he is now. Even though he tried his best to behave politely, it still made Shen Han feel a kind of displeasure of being looked down upon.

It is also because of this that Shen Han's memory of this incident can be regarded as quite deep.

Thinking of this, Shen Han became even more wary of Luo Jinyan.

The young man in front of him was very difficult to deal with when he was 11 years old, let alone now?

"So what if you know who I am?"

Shen Han said in a cold voice, "If you want to kill, you can do whatever you want, you don't want to ask anything from me!"

Luo Jinyan said indifferently: "The spy spies arranged by various parties in the capital are like crucian carp crossing the river, and I don't think you are an important role in it. If you insist, I will execute you as a fugitive. In contrast, I'm more interested in this one."

While speaking, Luo Jinyan had already turned to look at the foreigner with long black curly hair on the other side of the cell.

Shen Han's expression froze for a moment, the feeling of punching nothing was obviously not very good.

That foreigner looks really good, there is a pattern on the cheekbone that looks like a word or a painting.

Seeing everyone looking at him, he immediately showed a habitual smile as a businessman greeted him, and said in very standard Dasheng official words: "This... Mr. Luo, did you misunderstand something? I am just an honest businessman , I have been here for seven or eight years, and Miss Luo Er has seen me too. I have never done anything I shouldn't have done."

Luo Jinyan said: "Really? Someone told me...you and him often meet secretly."

The man innocently said: "How is it possible? I... I have indeed met him. This gentleman's appearance looks very impressive, and it hasn't been too long, so I probably remember some of it."

Luo Jinyan asked, "When did you meet him?"

The man thought for a while and said, "Is it the beginning of this year or the end of last year?"

"You are from Rouran." Luo Jinyan suddenly asked an irrelevant question.

"What?" Rao was also stunned, and it took a while to react, and said with a smile: "Young master, I'm afraid I made a mistake, I'm a kind person, and it has nothing to do with Rouran. Rouran... not for many years Have you been exterminated before?"

Luo Jinyan said indifferently: "The tattoos on your face are the modified ancient characters of the Qi people, which is only used by the royal family of the Qi people. Only the royal family of the Qi people will print their names on their slaves to show ownership. You The words on the face are translated into Dasheng characters - Baifeng. If I remember correctly, the totem of Bai Jingrong of the Qi clan is a white phoenix."

"However, the Qi people mark their slaves on their foreheads. Only the warriors of the Rouran tribe who passed down the past generations would tattoo their family's emblem on your position. The tattoo of the Rouran people is special, and it cannot be completely washed off. Yours The color of the tattoo is not the same as that of ordinary Qi slaves, because the original tattoo was forcibly covered. Did you suffer a lot because of this?"

Luo Jinyan looked at him calmly and said, "You survived the extermination of Rouran, prisoner of war."

The man's face darkened in an instant, and he stared at Luo Jinyan and said in a dark voice: "Young Master Luo is really well-read, and he even knows many ancient characters that the Qi people don't know." Except for criminals, ordinary people in the Central Plains don't go there. Face tattoos, but many foreigners have such a custom.In addition, he usually pays attention to decoration, most people will only regard this as a pattern and think it is the custom of other tribes, and will not think it is some ancient characters.

Luo Jinyan said: "I once heard that although Rou Ran is weak, she would rather bend than bend. When the Qi people wiped out her clan, she would rather die in battle than surrender. I didn't expect that there are still people alive, and this person is willing to replace the Qi people. Working hard. When Rouran was exterminated, you were not young, right?"

"What do you know!" the man snapped.

Luo Jinyan was a little disappointed: "I don't need to understand. Since you have the mark of Bai Jingrong on your face, she still sent you to Shangyong, so it can be seen that she didn't take you seriously. It seems that the harvest this time is unlikely to satisfy me gone."

It is true that not many people know the ancient characters of the Qi nationality, but it is not absolutely no.

Who knows if there will be a few people in Shangyonghuang City who have nothing to do to study these things?
If that person knows more about the Qi people, or has a few more friends who know about the Qi people, there is no guarantee that his identity will be exposed at any time.

So, what exactly is that crazy woman Bai Jingrong trying to do by getting these spies to come to Shangyong?
Although it is inevitable that there are spies lurking in the dark, isn't the frequency of this happening too high recently?
When something goes wrong, there must be a demon, but it seems to be intentional.

So, what exactly does Bai Jingrong want to do?
Luo Jinyan had never met Bai Jingrong, but it did not hinder the things he had heard about Bai Jingrong when he was a child at the border.

Therefore, Luo Jinyan would never regard Bai Jingrong as a weak woman who is simply seduced by sex and has to rely on Qi people to survive.

Although there are a lot of detailed works by all parties in Shangyong, they have been kept low-key these years.Now that he is suddenly so active, something must be happening.
