Reborn Daughter of the Clan

Chapter 22
Seeing Han Yao secretly coming to visit her daughter, she said nothing on the surface, but there was a thorn in her heart.

"Long'er, so mother hopes that you can choose your cousin Yu. You are about the same age, and your cousin Yu is also good to you. Mother will tell you now, as long as you agree, after you hold the ceremony of marriage, Chen The imperial concubine will ask the emperor to marry Yu'er for you..."

"Oh, mother, my wound hurts so much..." Nangong Linglong suddenly cried out in pain, her pretty face turned pale, her eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and tiny beads of sweat leaked from her forehead.

Hearing Nangong Linglong say that the wound hurts, Princess Yichang immediately stood up and asked with concern: "What's the matter? Didn't you take the medicine? It still hurts? Quick, let mother take a look."

Nangong Linglong hurriedly prevented Princess Yichang from inspecting her wound, and said, "Mother, Cousin Yao brought me a good medicine from the palace. In Linglong Pavilion, I'll go back and apply the medicine first."

"Mother help you go back." Princess Yichang was distracted by her yelling, she had long forgotten about the choice of marriage, and she didn't even notice that Nangong Linglong secretly pressed hard on the wound just now.

"Mother, there's no need, I'll go back to Linglong Pavilion by myself. Mother, my daughter will leave." After Nangong Linglong finished speaking, she slightly covered the wound on her left arm, and hurried away with a pale and pretty face.

"Long'er..."

After Nangong Linglong walked out of Princess Yichang's courtyard, her pale face immediately returned to rosy, her frowning eyebrows were released, she let go of her hand covering her wound, and she muttered softly: "This scene is really difficult to act. "

It was my own mother who lied to her. It is natural for a mother to love children, so she can successfully pass the test. If she is a step late, she will be forced by her mother to become Han Yu's princess.

She didn't expect that her mother had been secretly choosing the county horse for her, and the person she chose was Han Yu, who she didn't like to get along with the most in her previous life.Now she began to understand why Han Yu often came to Nangong Mansion. It was because Concubine Zhao Chen and her mother had a tacit agreement to get married.

Thinking that Han Yu was a bit unusual, Nangong Linglong trembled, she didn't want to be with Han Yu, that guy's city was too deep.

The sky was gloomy and the air was colder than yesterday.

Nangong Linglong returned to Linglong Pavilion very quickly, and before she entered the courtyard, a cloud of blue shadow suddenly floated down from the roof and blocked her way, it was a mute slave.

"What's the matter?" Seeing him, Nangong Linglong stopped immediately, and looked around cautiously to make sure there was no one else, so she asked calmly.Since the dumb slave returned to Nangong Mansion with her, he has been staying on the roof, even eating. His inner strength is extremely deep, and he can't feel the cold in the ice and snow. Nangong Linglong suspects that he is practicing pure yang inner strength, pure yang inner strength When you reach the highest level, no matter how cold the weather is, you won't feel cold even if you only wear unlined clothes.

The dumb slave looked behind her, his deep eyes became deeper, his lips were pursed like a straight line, his loose hair was blown to pieces by the wind, and his green clothes fluttered, escaping His chic.

Nangong Linglong turned her head in doubt to look behind her, but there was no one there.She raised her eyebrows and looked at the dumb slave.

Han Yao said that the mute slave was the servant of the right minister Wen Renchu, and the one who chased and killed him was also a member of Wen Renchu.Had he seen anything on the roof since the dumb slave had jumped off the roof for the first time since coming back with her?

"Is there anyone else visiting Nangong Mansion besides His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Nangong Linglong asked tentatively. When she was asking, her big bright eyes were fixed on the dumb slave. The dumb slave couldn't speak, so she could only hold tight Only by staring closely at his expression can you be sure that you are asking the right question.

The dumb slave nodded, pleased with her intelligence.

"who is it?"

The dumb slave drew his blunt sword.

Nangong Linglong made a pretty face, and asked in a low voice: "Is it the person who chased and killed you?"

The dumb slave nodded and straightened his right arm.

"Master Right?"

The dumb slave nodded again.

Nangong Linglong couldn't help but take a closer look at the dumb slave again. Ever since Wen Renchu ​​became the right chancellor of the Tianyun Dynasty, she had never been to Nangong Mansion, but she unexpectedly appeared in Nangong Mansion today. Know the whereabouts of the dumb slave.What secret is hidden in the dumb slave that Wen Renchu ​​attaches so much importance to?

"What secret are you keeping?"

The dumb slave's face became dark, worry flashed across his eyes, he didn't want her to know, otherwise it would bring her danger.

"If you don't tell me, Wen Renchu ​​will think that I already know this secret, and he will never let me go again. His visit today will prove it." Nangong Linglong glanced at him and said sharply.She passed the dumb slave and walked to her small study, and the dumb slave followed.

After entering the study, Nangong Linglong found a pen and paper, spread it on the desk, then looked at the dumb slave, and said, "Can you write down the secret you carry with you?"

The mute slave hesitated, embarrassment flashed across his face, he was illiterate, how to write.

He couldn't speak or write, but the secret he knew by accident still brought him death.

Nangong Linglong raised her eyebrows, still handed him the pen, and said, "I can't write, but I can draw?"

The dumb slave nodded immediately.

He took the pen from Nangong Linglong, and drew a room on the paper. There were many books in the room.

"Study?" Nangong Linglong asked after he drew these.

The dumb slave nodded, and then drew a door behind the bookshelf. After drawing the door, he stopped drawing.This is all he knows. There is a secret passage in Wen Renchu's study, and he doesn't actually know what is hidden in the secret passage, but what he knows is enough to make Wen Renchu ​​want to kill him.

Nangong Linglong picked up his "painting" and pondered it carefully.There is a secret passage in the study of Xiangfu, what is in the secret passage?
"Have you never entered the secret passage?" Nangong Linglong asked.

The dumb slave shook his head.

It is estimated that there are no more than three people in the prime minister's mansion who know that there is a secret passage in the study, otherwise he would not have killed himself if he knew it unintentionally.

"Let's go take a look tonight." Nangong Linglong said suddenly, she really wanted to know what secrets were hidden in Wen Renchu's study.

The mute slave immediately shook his head, preventing Nangong Linglong from visiting the Prime Minister's residence at night.The Prime Minister's Mansion is heavily guarded, and there are many masters. After he escapes, the guards inside will probably be even stricter.

"Operation Midnight." Nangong Linglong insisted on her own intention.

The dumb slave didn't move any more, thought for a moment, then nodded silently.

It was night, so dark that you couldn't see your fingers.

The cold wind that had been blowing for several days stopped, and the sound of howling ghosts and wolves could no longer be heard in the silent night.

Nangong Linglong held her own soft sword, changed into a tight-fitting black dress, then pushed open the window in the room, walked out through the window, and jumped onto the roof.
