Chapter 170 Accidental collision

People were shaking in the main hall of Liujiazhuang, and bursts of women's cries were heard, sometimes mixed with Liu Yuanwai's roar: "What a curse! What a curse!"

A servant lay under the window and listened.

Liu Chuanlin was pacing in his room at this time, looking upset.

With a 'pop' sound, a stone broke through the window paper and flew into the house.

Liu Chuanlin was startled and leaned over to pick up the stone.

There is a note tied to the stone.

Liu Chuanlin quickly untied the note, read it quickly, then slowly raised his head and took a deep breath.

The night was getting darker, and the greenhouse was dark and silent.

With a "squeak", the door opened slightly. Liu Chuanlin stepped into the greenhouse and closed the door behind him.

A woman's voice came from the darkness: "You are here."

Liu Chuanlin stood in front of the door and whispered: "Here you come. Didn't you tell me not to pester you anymore? Why do you want to see me now?"

The woman said: "Chuan Lin, I feel that your mood has been very unstable these days. Do you want to tell your father about us?"

Liu Chuanlin said nothing, tears welling up in his eyes.

The woman sighed: "I know your feelings for me, but the matter has come to this, and it is useless to say anything else..."

Liu Chuanlin raised his head: "Of course, it's useless to you!"

The woman said: "Chuan Lin, I'm sorry."

Tears rolled down from Liu Chuanlin's eyes: "Since I saw you in the village, you have always been cold and alien to me. Today you said 'I'm sorry' to me in an understatement... I don't understand, I did something wrong. What, let you treat me like this? Do you know how anxious I was when I hurried back to my home in Zhoucheng and found that you were missing? "

"I inquired about your whereabouts and looked for you everywhere. I, I...but when I returned to the village, I found that you, you had become...why did you do this?"

The woman said: "Now is not the time to explain. One day, I will tell you the truth, but you have to promise me one thing."

Liu Chuanlin asked: "What's the matter?"

The woman said: "Don't tell your father about us, otherwise, you will be in danger."

Liu Chuanlin sighed: "You are threatening me!"

The woman said: "Can you promise me?"

Liu Chuanlin covered his face with his hands in pain and sobbed softly.

The woman let out a long sigh: "I know you love me, and I love you too..."

Liu Chuanlin suddenly shouted: "No~ you lied to me! Everything is a lie, you are a terrible woman! I don't know why you did this, but you must have a purpose! I want my father to beware of you and not to fall in love with you when!"

With that said, he turned around and rushed out.

A woman's long sigh came from the darkness.

Liu Yuanwai sat alone at the stone table in front of the hall, lost in thought.

A breeze blew by, and he slowly raised his head, with tears in his eyes.

He gently pulled the coat he was wearing and sighed.

Liu Chuanlin was running desperately on the garden path. Suddenly, he stopped and raised his head.

A pair of terrifying eyes appeared from behind the Taihu stone beside the path, and he slowly pulled out the dagger with one hand.

Liu Chuanlin didn't notice any movement, so he continued to walk forward.

The black shadow jumped out from behind the Taihu Stone and followed him quickly. When it approached his back, he raised the dagger high and was about to drop it when suddenly a hand held the dagger in the air.

The black shadow was stunned and turned his head sharply.

Liu Chuanlin in front stopped and looked back, but he found nothing and there was no one behind him.

He continued walking quickly.

The dark shadow whispered: "You will ruin things if you are so indecisive!"

The voice of the woman who was in the flower room before sounded again: "Killing people here is just to alert the snake, and will only expose our identity and whereabouts! Moreover, I am sorry for him. I hope his father can drive him out of Liujiazhuang , our goal will be achieved, instead of killing him!" Liu Yuanwai still sat blankly in the main hall.

Liu Chuanlin walked in and stopped a few feet away from his father.

Liu Yuanwai turned around, and the father and son looked at each other.

After a long time, Liu Yuan said: "Chuan Lin, is something wrong?"

Liu Chuanlin hesitated.

Liu Yuanwai stood up with very cold eyes: "What do you want to tell me?"

Liu Chuanlin smiled: "Ah, no, no, I see if you have rested. You have been too tired recently."

Foreign Minister Liu sighed: "I'm just tired."

Liu Chuanlin whispered: "Then, my son is going back first. You can rest early."

Liu Yuanwai did not speak or move.

Liu Chuanlin turned around and walked towards the way he came.

"Do you really have nothing to say?" Liu Yuanwai saw him hesitating and suddenly asked.

Liu Chuanlin stood still and said after a long time: "No."

Liu Yuanwai said: "Chuan Lin, tomorrow morning, you can accompany my father to climb Cuiping Mountain."

Liu Chuanlin said 'yes' and strode away.

Looking at Liu Chuanlin's leaving figure, Liu Yuanwai had tears in his eyes.

……

Late at night, in the county government office, Zeng Tai was still thinking about this case. News came from outside the door that a person was asking to see him.

This man claimed to be an old acquaintance of the magistrate.

Zeng Tai said: "Please come quickly."

It was Song Huairen who came in, and he thought about it for a whole day before he came up with this idea.

"I've met the magistrate."

"Who are you? I don't seem to have an old acquaintance like you, right?"

"Don't be surprised, County Magistrate. If I didn't say this, I might not be able to see the County Magistrate again."

"If you have anything to do, please tell me quickly."

"Are you, the magistrate, bothered by this case? Or are you bothered by matters above you?"

"What? You too?" Before Zeng Tai could finish what he said, he went out and looked around.

Song Huairen was stunned. This county magistrate had another identity. He suddenly remembered what Zhang Yang said back then.

"Huairen, let me tell you. What the inner guards like to do most is to control the lowest officials, such as county magistrates, governors, chief officials, etc."

Song Huairen remembered that the inner guards relied on the plum blossom inner guard mark on their arms, but he didn't have one.

Said: "Sir, I don't understand what you are saying."

"Okay, tell Shangfeng that I haven't seen the deposed envoy yet. When he comes, I will inform you of all the news."

Seeing that Zeng Tai didn't check his plum blossom mark, Song Huairen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, my people will contact you when the time comes, and there will be another team of people who will contact you. You don't have to tell me when the time comes. my existence."

"Don't worry, I understand."

"This is best, then I'll leave first." Song Huairen handed over a piece of paper with a sentence written on it: Odd changes to even and remains unchanged, the symbols look at the quadrants. Then he said: "This is our joint password. Just remember it and burn it."

Zeng Tai nodded.

Song Huairen completed the task inexplicably. He smiled when he went out and quickly returned to the inn to send the carrier pigeon to Zhang Yang.
