Rebirth: Splendid Wedding

Chapter 216: An Insane and Smart Man (2)
Concubine Yan smiled, and said: "I should be the one asking you this, you were discovered when you broke into the prefect's mansion at night, if it wasn't for me, you would have been caught by them now."

"Thank you!"

He said thank you and didn't speak again.

Concubine Yan saw that he didn't seem to intend to say who she was, and she didn't force it, "Someone came here just now, it's not convenient for you to stay here, I'll go and dismiss the guards, you can leave from the backyard."

After hearing this, the man nodded.

She patted him twice, unlocking his acupuncture points.He rolled over and got out of bed, possibly touching the wound, he frowned and covered his chest.

Yan Feiran didn't enthusiastically ask to bandage his wound, she walked to the window and looked out, and saw two guards standing motionless at the gate of the courtyard, like two Buddha statues, and listened to the surroundings, feeling nothing There are people nearby.

She looked up at the sky, Tuoba Lin should be back soon after being out for so long, there were assassins just now, they must be vigilant now, if she went to distract them now, it would definitely attract suspicion.She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, reached out and groped on the window sill, and touched two very small stones. With a light flick, the two guards standing outside softened and fell asleep leaning against the door.

"You go." She stepped forward and opened the door to let him out.

The man looked at her twice, and after confirming that she really wanted to help him, the guarded look on his face finally eased, and he cupped his hands at her, "Thank you!"

Just as he was walking out the door, a picture suddenly flashed in Yan Feiran's mind, she remembered who this man was, and when she chased him out, the man had already climbed over the wall and left.

She patted her head, turned around and walked back to the room, thinking as she walked, let him go like this, when will we meet again?
This man is none other than the son of Chen Zhiming, the magistrate of Huzhou, who went to Beijing to sue for impeachment a year ago. At that time, the case was closed and Chen Zhiming died. Later, something happened to her Yan family, and she forgot about it.I didn't expect that they would meet again here. He has changed a lot. He used to look like a clean scholar, but now he is a down and out uncle. No wonder she couldn't remember it for a while.

Why did he break into the prefect's mansion at night? Does he still want to overturn the case?And she had a vague premonition that this matter was not simple.

Tuoba Lin came back at dawn, she didn't know what he did all night, but thinking of the blood that sneaked into the man's body before, she was afraid that he would come back with injuries when he went out, so she couldn't help but say He looked up and down to see if he was injured, and when he saw that he was not injured, he was relieved when he lifted it up.

"So you care about me so much." Seeing that she was so nervous, Tuoba Lin hugged her, smiling, and seemed to be in a good mood.

Concubine Yanran ignored his words, pushed him away, and asked anxiously: "What did you do after going out for so long? Do you know? Yang Liwan came just now, and you were almost discovered not to be there."

If she hadn't been clever enough to break the jug, the smell of wine covered up the smell of blood, and she pretended to be drunk, Yang Liwan would not have been dismissed so easily.

"I see. If I hadn't led him away, you thought he would have believed it so easily. By the way, who is in the room?"

When he came back, he happened to meet Yang Liwan standing outside the door, and seeing the unrest in the mansion, he probably guessed something, he was afraid that Yang Liwan would enter the room to search, so he deliberately pretended to be an assassin to lure him away .

"I don't know. He didn't say anything, and I didn't ask. It might be Yang Liwan's enemy or something, who came to find out Yang Liwan's crime." She didn't dare to tell him who the man was, because once he said it, She was going to explain a lot of things, and now was not the time, so she had to hide it from him and tell him in another way.

"Well, it's possible." He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if remembering something, and said, "I heard that someone broke into Yang Liwan's study when I came back, but I don't know if there is anything missing, and who it is, said Maybe new clues will be found from him."

Concubine Yan said: "I have seen this person, I will be responsible for finding this person tomorrow."

……

The next morning, when Yan Feiran woke up, Tuoba Lin had already left the house.

While washing and washing, she suddenly remembered that when she asked Tuoba Lin what he did last night, he didn't seem to answer, why didn't he answer?Is there an unspeakable secret, or can't trust her?Is it really so simple that he was ordered to secretly investigate the theft of official silver?

As soon as she stepped out of the room, she saw Yang Jiumei walking over with two maids.Yang Jiumei was dressed in rose-colored silver and floral satin, showing a delicate and graceful figure. She swayed and swayed when she walked, like a peach blossom blooming in winter, charming and charming.Her facial features are very delicate, and her eyes are watery, looking at you as if she is smiling.

With such a beautiful woman, it's no wonder Yang Liwan wanted to use her to climb high branches.

"Mr. Yuan." Yang Jiumei came over and nodded to her.

"Ms. Yang, good morning." She smiled and said, "Hey, what did you bring? It smells so good!" She had a good nose and smelled a burst of fragrance. She didn't eat breakfast, and her stomach started to growl.

"It's peach shortbread and some breakfast, specially prepared by the slave family. I wonder if the prince is up yet?" Yang Jiumei replied, with a shy expression on her face, she looked even more charming.

Sure enough, he came here for Tuoba Lin, what a pity, what a waste.She smiled and said: "Miss Yang came to look for the lord, are these cakes also prepared for him?" She really wanted to eat the cakes in the basket that the servant girl was holding on her arm.

"Well, Mr. Yuan also has it." She knew it was too obvious to do so, but there was nothing she could do about it. After the banquet last night, her mother kept nagging in her ear that she must make the prince agree before he left Shanghai. Accept yourself as a concubine.

"Thanks to the lord, I'm lucky today." She took a step back and invited, "Come in and sit down. The lord has gone out, and he may be back in a while."

"This..." Not good.Yang Jiumei hesitated.

"It's okay, we are friends. Although we only met last night, seeing you is like seeing my own sister. Your dancing posture last night was very charming. The prince said..." She pretended to stop, and Yang Jiumei really took the hook up.

"What did the lord say?"

"Why don't you come in and sit down, I'm a little hungry and my mouth is a little dry."

Hearing what she said, Yang Jiumei didn't hesitate. Anyway, she was at her home, and there were guards at the door. She believed that Mr. Yuan would not mess with her, so she ordered the servant girl, "Huan'er, Zhen'er, go in with the cakes."

Concubine Yan stepped aside and invited them in, thinking, it turned out that Yang Jiumei cared so much about Tuoba Lin's thoughts, then the next thing to investigate would be much easier.
