Ye Chutang looked at him frankly.

Hmm... It's true that I can't tell him, it's the same if he asks again.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yanchuan nodded in understanding.

"King Qi is suspicious by nature, the mansion is heavily guarded, and there are many checkpoints. It is really not easy to leave someone to do things. It is only natural that Second Miss Ye is cautious."

Ye Chutang: "...???"

Did Shen Yanchuan misunderstand something?

Hearing this, he actually thought she had an eyeliner in Prince Qi's mansion?

...Why does this reason seem to be quite useful?
In this way, all her actions can be directly pushed to the non-existent "informant".

Ye Chutang didn't say anything. In Shen Yanchuan's view, it was acquiescence.

Although I don't know how Ye Chutang did it, but this matter is not against her.

She is a person, as long as she thinks, there seems to be nothing she can't do.

Shen Yanchuan always knew how to measure, so he didn't ask any more about these.

Ye Chutang also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was raining outside, and the cave seemed extraordinarily quiet.

Ye Chutang raised his arm slightly, the wound on his shoulder was pulled, and there was another sharp pain.

She frowned slightly.

"Those people are really persistent. From Jiangling to the capital, they still refuse to give up. There are at least five people who sneaked up today, right? They all went to you alone, but everyone should move slowly—but I see the situation of His Royal Highness. It seems to be okay, everyone said that he is both civil and military, and seeing him today, he does have some skills."

Shen Yanchuan turned his head to look.

Ye Chutang blinked: "See what I'm doing?"

Shen Yanchuan said: "If you want to ask me anything in the future, just say it."

Hearing this, Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows lightly.

Shen Yanchuan looked at her, his deep black eyes were clear and calm.

He said—

"The assassins today were indeed sent by Xiao Chengxuan."

……

The rain outside seemed to have become lighter, and Shen Yanchuan's voice was particularly clear during the moment when the wind stopped.

Ye Chutang was really surprised by this.

She just wanted to test it out, to ask Shen Yanchuan, who was the one who secretly killed him like this.

I thought Shen Yanchuan wouldn't open his mouth, but who knew - he actually admitted it directly like this! ?
Seeing Ye Chutang's expression in a daze for a short time, and a rare bit of bewilderment appearing in those clear and dark eyes, Shen Yanchuan suddenly felt much happier.

He smiled: "Why, don't you believe it?"

Ye Chutang shook his head slowly.

"That's not true, it's just... I thought you wouldn't tell me."

As soon as this sentence came out, it was equivalent to directly revealing the deadliest conflict between him and Xiao Chengxuan.

Shen Yanchuan was thoughtful and thoughtful, so he would never tell others about this matter so easily.

Especially for someone like Ye Chutang who has nothing to do with him.

But he just said it to her lightly.

Shen Yanchuan nodded: "I also thought you wouldn't ask."

After all, in the past, she was most afraid of getting involved in his affairs, and would never avoid it.

Ye Chutang: "..."

Why do these words sound weird?
In fact, she really didn't want to ask more, but after having that dream last time, she knew that this trip was necessary.

That dream was definitely related to her.

So she came today anyway.

This also means that she has made up her mind to get involved, so naturally the clearer she knows, the better.

Ye Chutang sighed silently in his heart.

"So he deliberately made such a move today. In fact, he didn't really want to discuss something with you, but to take the opportunity to attack you? It would be best if he could solve you, and if not, at least he could clear up the past. ,Yeah?"

Shen Yanchuan's eyes moved: "Did you hear that?"

"A little bit."

Shen Yanchuan didn't seem to mind either, and nodded: "He knew I wouldn't agree, so from the beginning, he had other purposes."

Ye Chutang felt that he had touched the crux of the problem.

"Agree to what?"

……

Lian Zhou hurried over with his men, and when he saw Yun Cheng, he frowned and asked, "Where's master?"

Yun Cheng shook his head: "I haven't found it yet."

Lian Zhou looked around, pulled him aside, lowered his voice and hurriedly asked: "What's going on? Isn't it all planned? How did it happen?"

Yun Cheng comforted: "Don't worry, Master will be fine."

Lian Zhou didn't believe it at all: "The situation in this mountain is so complicated, how can it be so easy to find someone? What if the master—"

Yuncheng coughed and whispered.

Lian Zhou didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

Yun Cheng had no choice but to repeat it again.

"Master and Miss Ye Er fell together, and they should still be together now."

Lian Zhou's anxious expression froze for a moment, and then he spoke slowly.

"...Oh, that's all right."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Yun Cheng again, with a third of contempt and a third of admiration.

"Tsk, it has to be you. How about you being the chief housekeeper?"

Yuncheng modestly said: "Where. The rain is about to stop, we still have to find the master and Miss Ye Er quickly. By the way, there are also those assassins——"

Lian Zhou raised his chin behind him.

"Don't worry, if you brought someone here this time, you must clean it up."

……

Time passed slowly, and in the evening, the pilgrims trapped in the temple were finally released one after another.

The half-mountain and the foot of the mountain are strictly guarded by guards.

In addition to the people from Dingbeihou's Mansion and Princess Chang's Mansion, the Jingwei Office also dispatched elite soldiers, some of whom were in charge of guarding, and some began to search the mountains.

Fortunately, the rain finally stopped at this time.

The corners of Qinyang Princess' skirt were covered with a lot of mud, but she still insisted on searching with the team.

She followed the location where Ye Chutang and Shen Yanchuan fell, detoured from the side, and went straight down.

The hillside was steep, and no one knew where the two were and whether they were safe.

Princess Qinyang waved a long whip to knock off all the branches and leaves that got in the way, while walking non-stop.

Xiao Chengxuan was also here, but he also had wounds on his body, so he didn't go down.

Seeing the figure of Princess Qinyang gradually moving away, Xiao Chengxuan frowned and ordered: "Send more people and make sure to protect the princess."

"Yes!"

The guards responded, and soon a group of people followed.

Someone behind him persuaded: "Your Highness, you are also injured, why don't you go back and rest? With so many people here, we will definitely find the eldest son and Miss Ye Er soon."

Xiao Chengxuan waved his hands without looking back.

"The king is waiting here, you don't need to persuade!"

As he said, he looked towards the bottom of the cliff where the branches and leaves were criss-crossed and it was almost impossible to see the bottom, and a cold light flashed across his eyes.

……

The sky gradually darkened.

Ye Chutang gradually felt a little cold all over his body, tiredness surged up, and his eyelids became heavy.

Finally, she turned her head and fell to the side.

Shen Yanchuan suddenly felt his shoulders sink.
