Chapter 71

"My lord, the person you want has been brought here." In the dark room, a man in gray clothes escorted a man in green shirt who was in his 40s and stood in front of Duanyan Chen. The man in green shirt looked at Duanyan with some fear. Chen, lowered his head, this man is none other than Yefu's housekeeper for three years.

Duan Yanchen glanced at him fiercely, narrowed his eyes and said, "You must be very clear about the matter of Yefu."

"My lord, this servant is just a servant and doesn't know anything about Yefu." The housekeeper kept his expression calm and said in a low voice.

Duan Yanchen snorted softly, pursed his lips and said, "Tell me everything you know, Yefu is not as simple as it appears on the surface, right?"

"The slave has nothing to say." The butler even lowered his head, with a trace of determination on his not-so-old face.

"Speak hard, if the prince tells you to say it, you can say it, is it because you have to pay for it to be willing to say it?" The man in the gray shirt beside him made a vicious sound, and the sound of clenching his joints rattled.

"I really don't know, what do you want me to say?" The butler frowned, his expression very embarrassed.

"As far as I know, three years ago, Yefu had no trace of doing business at all, but it suddenly entered into business three years ago. Do you know that a very important event happened in the palace three years ago, and it happened that Yefu's Now that the incident happened around the same time, think about it, is there any relationship between the lack of 300 million gold in the palace and the sudden appearance of a night mansion?" Duan Yanchen slowly said what he was investigating. With a voice, the gentleness and elegance in the usual days have long disappeared from the handsome face, but a little bit of royal aura has been added.

As soon as these words fell, the housekeeper's calm face changed in astonishment, but he still said, "The slaves can't understand what the prince said."

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand this king's words. This king just wants to know the situation of Ye Mansion. You have been in Ye Mansion for so long, haven't you noticed that there are often some unknown people coming and going in and out of Ye Mansion?" Duan Yanchen asked lightly.

The housekeeper shook his head, "The slave didn't see any suspicious people entering the night mansion, the prince is too worried."

Duan Yanchen originally didn't want to use strong means, firstly it was not his style, and secondly he didn't want to make this matter a big deal, but since the matter came to this point, he didn't have to use some means, he said with a bit of lip , "It seems that you don't plan to leave this door anymore. The Ye Mansion is just an empty shell now, doesn't it mean something? If you maintain it like this, you are the only one who suffers. Chang Ming, you should have a way to make him speak!"

"Of course, please don't worry, my lord. The servant will not let him die." The man named Chang Ming immediately cheered up, as if torturing people is a kind of fun.

But in the eyes of the butler, this kind of expression made him tremble all over. Chang Ming took out a green bamboo tube from his side waist. Raising his eyebrows, he stretched out his hand to open the cover, and after a while, a green snake head protruded from the bamboo tube, spitting out a red letter and hissing at the housekeeper a few times.

The butler was already chilling all over his body just by looking at him. He immediately turned pale with fright, and wanted to escape, but was grabbed by Chang Ming, who sneered, "The only advantage of this kind of snake is that it makes life worse. Death, but it will not poison people to death, do you want to try this taste."

"I...I...I really don't know, you guys... please let the young one go! The young one has a wife and children, and elderly parents...My lord...please... Please." The butler was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, begging and wailing at Duan Yanchen.

"As long as you tell me what I want to know, I will naturally let you go." Duan Yanchen said expressionlessly.

"I..." The butler was still hesitating, although he knew everything about it, but Ye Changnian had treated him with such kindness, how could he buy them out?
"It seems that he still wants to repay the snake's power, okay! I will do what you want." Chang Ming said with great interest. After finishing speaking, he was about to take out the snake and put it on Hejia's neck superior.

The butler was so frightened that he almost cried, he quickly shook his head and said, "No...don't..."

Chang Ming grabbed the little snake by its tail, and the little snake seemed to know the person it was about to bite very well. It poked its head out and burrowed into the butler's clothes. The butler was so frightened that he almost paralyzed on the ground. Finally, he yelled loudly, "Don't ...don't... my lord, help me...I said I said...I said it."

In a valley, Ye Tianshang's figure stood out in the wind, and beside him, the leaves flew away, blowing his clothes and disturbing his heart, returning to the old place again, young With arrogant ambition, there is an extra maturity and calmness that does not belong to him. Behind him, more than a dozen men in black are standing steadily, all of them have bright eyes, and it can be seen that they are all extraordinary people. They looked at the man in front of them, He bowed his head and knelt down, "Master."

"Let's disperse, everyone! Do your duty and don't need to appear in front of me." Ye Tianshang ordered lightly, but the people behind him didn't say anything, but silently dispersed from different directions, the crowd dispersed, Only Ye Changnian was left drinking tea in front of the stone table, and he couldn't help asking Ye Tianshang, "Now is your dangerous period, so why not have subordinates to accompany you?"

"I don't like being around too many people." Ye Tianshang raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked over to drink tea with Ye Changnian.

"I heard from the people who came back that Duan Yanchen caught the housekeeper. You know the consequences will not be what we would like to see." Ye Changnian said worriedly. He didn't want the housekeeper to be in trouble, so even if he leaked something , he will not blame him.

"Duan Yanchen, if you want to fight against me, just come, I will let him know the consequences of offending me, and it will be uncomfortable." Ye Tianshang gritted his teeth, and after finishing speaking, he put down his teacup, stood up and walked out, behind Ye Changnian was a little Worried, "Where are you going?"

"Go out for a while." Ye Tianshang dropped the words.

"Going to Luoyang?" Ye Changnian asked behind him.

Ye Tianshang didn't answer, however, Ye Changnian already knew the answer, so it was difficult for him to say, he didn't know whether to be happy or worried, Ye Tianshang's temperament has completely changed since he met Lin Chuchu, became mature and sensible However, Ye Changnian was still worried that Ye Tianshang might be hurt because of Lin Chuchu.

In the streets of Luoyang, Lin Chuchu wandered around for a while, feeling tired, in Luoyang, her heart drifted away, and if Ling Xiefeng didn’t come back, she was going to find him with all her heart, and now seeing her life was back Normally, she can search in the street like a normal person without being chased and killed. She is free and unrestrained, and no one will disturb her. But this kind of peaceful life lacks only one person. For Lin Chuchu , the lack of one person is equivalent to the loss of a world, making her uncomfortable.

Accompanying her was Nangongshou's daughter, Miao'er, a young girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, innocent and cute, as if she was ignorant of worldly affairs, but although she had a cheerful temper, she didn't have the slightest squeamishness of a young lady. easy-going.

"Sister Chuchu, do you really want to go back?" Seeing Lin Chuchu's weak expression, Miao'er, who was playing vigorously, couldn't help asking with concern.

"Miao'er, what else do you want to buy, I'll just go with you." Lin Chuchu didn't show her powerlessness, but everything about her was too forced, and she didn't want Shaoxing either.

"I heard that there is a shop for jewelry, let's go and have a look!" Miao Er happily shouted.

Lin Chuchu nodded, "Yes."

At the gate of Luoyang City, two outstanding figures walked in slowly at this time, a handsome and delicate man and a bright and charming woman in purple clothes, two dazzling figures appeared at the same time, and everyone around them looked sideways in amazement.

"Wow, this woman is so beautiful!" One of the passing men exclaimed loudly, and he was not afraid of being blamed by his wife beside him, and praised him loudly.

"It's so beautiful, which family's rich lady is this?"

"It's as beautiful as a fairy!"

Luo Ziyi was not very happy when she heard these praises. Her beauty was recognized since she was a child, and she didn't bother to talk to these ordinary people. However, she looked at Ling Xiefeng with a little complacency , but saw Ling Xiefeng's hurried footsteps, as if he had no intention of looking sideways and amazed by the people around him, but walked forward step by step.

Luo Ziyi couldn't help pursing her lips, pouting her mouth and stomping her feet, she was really mad, why the man in front of her didn't even look at her when everyone was praising her, how could she bear it?

"Ling Xiefeng, stop." Luo Ziyi shouted deliberately from behind.

Ling Xiefeng stopped and looked back at her. He couldn't bear Luo Ziyi's temper at all. If he hadn't been kind to her, he would have ignored this kind of woman if he was the former him. Sweeping, Luo Ziyi couldn't help raising her eyebrows and said, "I'm tired, you can accompany me to the teahouse over there!"

Ling Xiefeng had no choice but to walk in the direction of the teahouse. God knows how anxious he was, he wished he could go to the Nangong mansion immediately to find out. His face was expressionless, showing displeasure. Arrived, however, she pursed her red lips a little angrily, and said to the boss, "Two pots of good tea."

Seeing such a delicate guest, the boss quickly responded, "Okay, wait a moment, both of you."

Luo Ziyi took the opportunity to sneak a few glances at Ling Xiefeng's handsome face. Although she was angry, it was undeniable that every time she looked at him, her heartbeat would speed up and even become chaotic. Behaving intensely.

After a while, the boss served two pots of good tea, Luo Ziyi slowly tasted it without rushing, while Ling Xiefeng on the side looked very irritable, he stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup and drank it in one gulp, looking back at Luo Ziyi Although he was anxious in his heart, there was nothing he could do about the slow movements. What worried him even more was how long this Luo Ziyi was going to pester him?

After sitting in the teahouse for nearly an hour, Ling Xiefeng became more and more irritable, and he wanted to get up and leave several times. Luo Ziyi saw that his expression was full of helplessness. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he had to get up and said, "Let's go! It seems How much you want to see your beloved girl!"

"En." Ling Xiefeng didn't deny it, but responded lightly, got up and left.

Walking on the street, handsome men and beautiful women naturally attracted a lot of attention. Luo Ziyi ignored the compliments of others, and occasionally glanced at Ling Xiefeng who was on the side, and still enjoyed the feeling of being with him on his small face.

Standing at the door of the jade vessel, Lin Chuchu stared at the bracelet with interest. She didn't have Miaoer's curiosity, so she couldn't help looking around bored. Coming here, when she saw that handsome face, Lin Chuchu almost jumped up, my God. . .Ling Xiefeng. . .Is it Ling Xiefeng?
Lin Chuchu was wondering if she was dreaming. She opened her eyes twice to make sure that she was not dreaming. However, at this moment, a scene happened that shocked Lin Chuchu extremely.

I saw an old man pushing a car full of things when he passed by Ling Xiefeng, the car accidentally tilted, and the car suddenly hit the feet of a woman in purple, and the woman in purple trembled, her whole body was weak He fell into Ling Xiefeng's arms, and at that moment, Ling Xiefeng stretched out his hands to wrap his arms around the body of the woman in purple, protecting her in his arms, with a concerned expression on his face.

Lin Chuchu's whole body was petrified at the door, and she stared at the scene she just saw in disbelief, only to realize that she had ignored the stunning figure beside Ling Xiefeng, who was that woman?Why is she with Ling Xiefeng, and Ling Xiefeng cares about her so much, what is the relationship between the two of them?This series of questions immediately popped into Lin Chuchu's mind, making her froze on the spot, watching Ling Xiefeng help the woman in purple pass by her eyes. . . .away. . .The heart was almost pinched, and the pain made her want to cry. . .

Luo Ziyi bit her lower lip angrily, just now she forgot to dodge for a moment, and that's why the messy car crushed her feet, but she took advantage of it, Ling Xiefeng actually hugged her At this time, her feet were made to limp, but with Ling Xiefeng's strong arms supporting her, she would rather be crushed a few more times.

Ling Xiefeng frowned, and helped the woman beside him. Jun's face was indescribably complicated. He didn't want to touch her, but she was injured, and he couldn't leave her alone. Seeing that he was about to go to Nangong The mansion was gone, and he felt better for no reason.

Miao Er was picking out a jade bracelet she liked, when she turned her head and saw Lin Chuchu with a stiff face, there seemed to be something shining in her eyes, she was shocked for a moment, and immediately asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?" ?”

Lin Chuchu pursed her lips and sniffed her nose, "I'm fine." However, after saying this, she turned around, but her eyes were already red, Xiefeng, how could he?How can he?That purple-clothed girl just now was very beautiful, very beautiful, so beautiful that it seemed that she couldn't eat fireworks. . . .This is the only thing Lin Chuchu knows. . .

Miao Er saw that Lin Chuchu's complexion was not good, so she couldn't help asking with concern, "Sister, are you feeling unwell! Do you want us to go back home?"

Lin Chuchu jumped up nervously, turned around and shook her head, "No...don't...I don't want to go back home...I...let's go shopping again! I know the clothes over there are very nice." Back Seeing that Ling Xiefeng and the purple-clothed woman were heading back to the Nangong Mansion, she was so flustered that she didn't know how to face it. At this moment, she just wanted to escape. . .

"Oh! Let's go!" Miao'er said with a smile on her face, and pulled Lin Chuchu away.

Lin Chuchu completely seemed to have lost her soul, and followed Miao Er unconsciously.

Ling Xiefeng supported the injured Luo Ziyi and stood at the gate of Nangong. He let go of his hand and hurriedly stepped forward to knock on the door. The door was opened by the housekeeper of Nangong Mansion. Seeing Ling Xiefeng, he immediately smiled and said, "So it's Ling Xiefeng. The son is back."

"Housekeeper, are Master Linbao and Master Nangong here?" Ling Xiefeng asked eagerly.

"In...in...the two masters are in the study!" The housekeeper also said quickly, and raised his eyes to see Luo Ziyi standing outside the door, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, "Mr. Ling, this girl yes....?"

"This girl's foot is injured, please let the doctor take a look at her..." Ling Xiefeng glanced back at Luo Ziyi, and quickly entered the gate of the mansion. The wound on her body healed in an instant, and she hurriedly followed, "Ling Xiefeng, you can't leave me behind."

"Girl, your feet...?" The butler couldn't help being a little stunned. Didn't it mean that her feet were injured?

"It's okay, give me a room to rest!" Seeing Ling Xiefeng leaving, Luo Ziyi turned her head and said to the housekeeper.

The butler nodded quickly, and walked towards a guest room in front of her.

In the corridor, Xin Chang's figure ran in a hurry. Ling Xiefeng walked through the courtyard of the middle hall and went straight to the direction of the study. At the door, he heard someone talking inside. He stopped and walked in slowly. In addition to Lin Batian and Nan Gongshou, there are several senior figures who saw Ling Xiefeng come back and couldn't help laughing, "Xiefeng, have you recovered from your injuries?"

"Thank you for your care, seniors. Ling's injury has basically recovered." Ling Xiefeng clasped his fists politely, but he looked at Lin Batian anxiously, and asked, "Overlord Lin, do you have any news about it?" ?”

Seeing that he was so worried about Chu Chu, Lin Batian couldn't help but smiled kindly, "Xiefeng, didn't you see Chu Chu in the yard?"

"What did you say? Has Chuchu come back yet?" Ling Xiefeng asked loudly, the shock and joy in his heart almost overwhelmed him.

"If Chuchu is not in the yard, she must have been dragged out by Miaoer to go shopping." Master Nangong said with a smile.

"Well, that might be it." Lin Batian smiled.

"Chuchu, she really has to come back? Where is she now?" Ling Xiefeng was speechless from the excitement in his heart, but he still restrained his calm image, and asked Shen.

"At this time, Xiang must be back soon, Xiefeng, as long as your injury recovers." Lin batian looked at the young man in front of him with satisfaction, with praise in his eyes.

"I... I'll go out for a while." Ling Xiefeng suppressed his voice and walked out of the study. He looked around, only hoping to see the figure of Xinnian in the corner of the courtyard corridor, but at this time, Lin batian came out behind him, Ling Xiefeng asked involuntarily, "Lord Linbao, how did Chuchu get saved?"

Lin Batian glanced at him with some reproach, and smiled inexplicably, "You still call me Lord Linbao, it's too unfamiliar."

Ling Xiefeng understood immediately, his handsome face flushed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Uncle."

"Chu Chu came back by herself, but I suspect it has something to do with Ye Tianshang." Lin Batian said.

"Ye Tianshang? What does Chuchu have to do with him?" Ling Xiefeng's expression tightened, and he asked with a frown.

"I guess the person who sent Chu Chu back this time is Ye Tianshang." Lin Batian said calmly, and when he heard Lin Chuchu say that a man wearing a mask sent her back, Lin Batian realized something. It's just that he's not sure, now that he has heard about Ye Tianshang's current actions and whereabouts in the world, he can conclude that the man in the mask is him, but what makes him strange is, what is the significance of Ye Tianshang's actions?

Ling Xiefeng couldn't stop the unhappiness welling up in his heart, he frowned and said, "From now on, he won't even think about taking a step closer to Chuchu." After finishing speaking, Ling Xiefeng's eyes shot out a bit of murderous intent.

Lin Batian patted him on the shoulder and warned, "Xiefeng, you have to be careful of this person. This person's skill is unfathomable. I don't want you to be tricked by him again."

"What does uncle mean?" Ling Xiefeng raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"It's very likely that he was the one who sneaked up on you last time."

"It's him?" Ling Xiefeng's handsome eyes sank, and his silver eyes were filled with unstoppable hatred.

"However, don't worry, Ye Tianshang is now the public enemy of the martial arts. I heard that Chaoyan is also tracking him. I believe he will pay the price for everything he has done in the near future." Lin Batian said After that, the light in his eyes became complicated, and he was thinking whether such an approach was right or wrong?Ye Tianshang is an unfortunate person, Lin batian still has a little remorse for him, after all, he only intended to kill his father at the beginning, but unexpectedly his mother and all the servants in the courtyard lost their lives for him, the so-called right way and evil way, Sometimes it is always impossible to distinguish clearly.

At this moment, I saw a little maid hurriedly approaching Ling Xiefeng, "Master Ling, the girl in purple is looking for you everywhere!"

Ling Xiefeng's face changed slightly, and Lin Batian beside him knew something sensitively. He frowned and said, "The girl in purple clothes? Is it the owner of the purple clothes palace?"

"En." Ling Xiefeng responded, with a helpless handsome face, and said to the little maid, "Go down!"

"Why did she come to Luoyang?" Lin Batian couldn't help asking curiously, but he was worried about another thing in his heart. However, he is experienced in the world, and it is not difficult to guess the reason why Luo Ziyi came to Luoyang. It must be an inevitable emotion. Literally, Ling Xiefeng is a handsome man, I believe that any girl who sees him will fall in love with him.

Ling Xiefeng's usually calm and unfazed eyes showed a moment of panic, he turned his head and looked at Lin Batian anxiously, "Uncle, what should I do, I'm worried that Chuchu will misunderstand..."

"It depends on what Chuchu thinks. I believe you can handle this relationship well." Lin Batian patted him on the shoulder and entered the study.

Ling Xiefeng stood at the door with a helpless expression. He was really flustered. The person he didn't want to hurt was Lin Chuchu. Now, would she be misunderstood because of Luo Ziyi's existence?Coupled with Luo Ziyi's extreme temper, he was even more worried that she would be unfavorable to her after seeing Chu Chu.

There are surprises and sorrows at the same time. Ling Xiefeng is facing emotional difficulties for the first time. Even though he was once a happy and envious killer, he still seems at a loss in terms of emotions. One is a beloved woman and the other is a savior. Can have both?
