Chapter 322 322

The petal orchid is extremely precious. There are only three households in the capital. So soon, Lin Sishen received a reply from his subordinates. Among these three, except for one rich businessman, the other two were quite suspicious.

One is the Minister of Revenue, Wen Xuanyang's father, and there are lotus orchids planted outside the study room of Shangshu Wen. The other one, as Lin Sishen expected, was the second prince.

Li Luo was assassinated after following Wen Xuanyang, and Shangshu Wen was the second prince. It seems that the second prince is the most likely to be the mastermind behind it.

However, Lin Sishen still had doubts. Although she had a quarrel with the second prince, the second prince and the fourth prince were at the most intense battle, and she had a rift with the fourth prince again. The second prince should not be so stupid that he completely broke up with her and pushed her towards the fourth prince faction.

Lin Sishen will not say these doubts for the time being. After hearing that Li Luo woke up, she hurried back to the wooden house. In addition to visiting Li Luo, she also wanted to ask Li Luo what happened when she was attacked that day.

The poison on Li Luo's body had been relieved, but the wound in his heart had not yet healed, so he could only lie on the bed to recuperate. But she was used to being alone and was really not used to Meng Yange's careful and considerate care, so when she saw Lin Sishen coming, she suggested that Lin Sishen find another place for her to recover from the wounds.

I don’t know if it was because of Meng Yange’s kindness, Li Luo no longer cared about her feelings as before. Even when talking about this with Lin Sishen, he used the excuse to send Meng Yange away and mentioned it alone with Lin Sishen.

After hearing Li Luo's request, Lin Sishen looked at Li Luo's pale and bloodless face, saying, "But the wound on your body has not healed yet. How can I rest assured if I let you live alone?"

After saying that, Lin Sishen looked out the window and added: "Besides, you are even more disliked if you need others to take care of it. I can't let it go. Meng Yange knows the truth and is familiar with you and me. You might as well stay here for a few more days, and then I will find another place for you."

Li Luo's expression was a little complicated. She followed Lin Sishen's gaze and looked out the window. After a moment, she sighed and murmured: "I really don't know how to repay her kindness, nor do I know how to face her."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Sishen lowered his head and was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Although Meng Yange repeatedly said that she did not ask Li Luo to repay her kindness, but only let Li Luo treat her as usual, everything was just willing. But Meng Yange had such great kindness to Li Luo, how could Li Luo face her with peace of mind?

Li Luo could not ignore his own thoughts, nor did he know how to treat Meng Yange. When he saw Meng Yange dragging his unhealed body to take care of her, his mood became more and more complicated every day.

To her, such a feeling of no return was like a mountain pressing down on her heart. She didn't know how to unload or face it, which made her almost breathless.

Both of them in the wooden house were in silence for a moment, Li Luo was complicated, and Lin Sishen was the same.

That day, seeing Meng Yange willingly save Li Luo without hesitation, Lin Sishen was quite touched. Li Luo has been alone for so many years, and no one has ever been with him. If someone cared about her sincerely and always stayed by her side, Lin Sishen could feel at ease.

But she was not Li Luo after all. She didn't know whether Li Luo had any worries about Meng Yange, so she naturally could not control Li Luo's feelings.

After hesitating for a while, Lin Sishen looked up at Li Luo, raised his lips and smiled: "Forget it, if you really don't want to stay here, then I will send someone to find a residence for you tomorrow and let Mo Zhu take care of you."

Li Luo nodded slightly when she heard this, but her brows were still furious, which shows that this matter still made her quite bored.

Lin Sishen coughed lightly and changed the subject: "Forget it, let's not mention this matter for now. I have one more thing to ask you."

Li Luo raised his eyes and looked at her quietly, opened his lips and asked, "Do you want to ask me why I was attacked that day?"

Lin Sishen nodded and said seriously: "Well, I went to the old yard to investigate a few days ago and found some clues from the bodies of those people. But I still want to ask you, what happened that day, and how did those people follow you to your hiding place?"

Li Luo Dai frowned, looked at Lin Sishen's eyes with some conscience, and fell into deep thought: "I don't know the identities of those people, but it was indeed a bit strange that day..."

After Lin Sishen ordered Wen Xuanyang to follow him and secretly investigate his daily whereabouts, Li Luo has been hiding near the Shangshu Mansion, staring at Wen Xuanyang day and night.

There was nothing unusual at first. Wen Xuanyang, apart from the court, stayed in the Shangshu Mansion every day without leaving the house. Occasionally, he would gather with three or two friends in a restaurant at night, recite poems and talk about the world. Apart from that, he rarely had contact with outsiders.

Until the day before Li Luo was attacked, Wen Xuanyang returned home late after being hungry. On the second day, he took leave and did not go to court. He stayed in the mansion all day and had a big fight with Shangshu Wen at night. Mrs. Wen went to kick the fight, but was pushed down by Shangshu Wen and fainted on the ground. Wen Xuanyang was punished in the study to reflect.

At that time, Li Luoshang remembered that Wen Xuanyang was walking back and forth in the study alone, picking up his pen from time to time and thinking about writing something, but he didn't write a few words and then he kissed him and thought of it. He seemed quite depressed.

After about two hours, he slowly wrote a letter and solemnly handed it to a servant boy in the Shangshu Mansion, asking the servant boy to sneak out from the back door to deliver the letter.

Li Luo followed the boy to a mill. Seeing that he handed the letter to the owner, the owner hurried out after seeing the letter. Before leaving, he placed a pot of orchids on the windowsill.

Li Luo felt strange and sneaked into the mill to observe the secret letter hidden by the owner, but after tossing and turning, it was just a blank piece of letter paper without a trace.

Li Luo suspected that she had been trapped and evacuated in time. As expected, she left before someone secretly surrounded the mill. After avoiding those people, Li Luo fired a shot and returned to the Shangshu Mansion again. Sure enough, he saw Wen Xuanyang conspiring with the second prince in the study.

On the same day, Lin Sishen sent a secret letter, telling her not to stare at Wen Xuanyang anymore. She also planned to inform Lin Sishen about this matter in advance, so she did not monitor it anymore and planned to return to her hiding place.

Not long after returning, Li Luo first received a letter from Lin Sishen and burned the secret letter, and uninvited guests came to the courtyard. Those who came were not kind and had a large number of people, and they were all dead and did not intend to leave any living.

Just as he realized something was wrong, Li Luo first put out the candlelight in the house. Before they could do it, he quietly walked behind them and killed them off guard. It was because of this that the bodies of those people were lying in the courtyard, but there was no trace of them stepping into the house.

After killing all the assassins, Li Luo had no time to take a breath, and suddenly shot a poison dart in secret and shot Li Luo's heart. The man had been hiding outside the yard and never took action. However, when Li Luo breathed a sigh of relief, he seized the opportunity to attack. Only then did Li Luo get hit.

After hitting the attack, the man seemed sure that Li Luo would die, and left quietly without looking forward to check.

In other words, the person who injured Li Luo was not the assassin who was killed in the courtyard, but another person hidden in the darkness, and he was still alive.

After hearing Li Luo's story, Lin Sishen's brows became tighter and tighter: "So, did you come to you after you received my Fei Ge's letter? "

Li Luo nodded, looking a little tired: "That's right."

Lin Sishen took a deep breath and thought, "From the clues I found and the fact that you discovered Wen Xuanyang's message, the ten people who sent someone to hurt you are the second prince."

Li Luo guessed: "Maybe Wen Xuanyang discovered that I was secretly surveillance and conspired with the second prince to design. But what's strange is how did they know where I was hiding?"

Lin Sishen sighed and looked at Li Luo with some guilt: "Maybe they did not find your trace, but I neglected when I sent the message. After all, I was implicated by you."

Li Luo did not deny it, but looked at Lin Sishen quietly and said softly: "You don't have to feel guilty about it. I am the one who has passed today and I don't know tomorrow's life and death."

Lin Sishen had a complicated expression. After pondering for a moment, she suddenly looked at Li Luo and said, "Li Luo, after you heal this time, you can go wherever you want, and you don't have to stay by my side anymore."

Li Luo turned his head and closed his eyes and whispered: "Since they have attacked me, they will definitely not let you go. At such a critical moment, you know I will not leave."

Lin Sishen shook his head helplessly: "But this is the only thing, I don't want to implicate you anymore."

Li Luo looked at her calmly, his pale thin lips slightly pursed, and asked coldly: "Are you going to drive me away?"

Lin Sishen breathed suffocated when he heard this and hurriedly explained: "I'm not trying to drive you away, you know what I mean..."

Li Luo interrupted her, turned her head and said in a cold tone: "Then you should know that I will not leave."

Lin Sishen was helpless. She sighed quietly, looked at her cold and stubborn side face, and said softly: "Li Luo, we have been together for many years, and I have long regarded you as my closest relative. The thing I fear the most is that the person I care about abandons me and leaves..."

Li Luo looked straight into Lin Sishen's eyes and said loudly: "So I will not abandon you."

Lin Sishen's heart trembled, subconsciously turned his head away from Li Luo's eyes, and whispered: "I don't mean that, I'm afraid we will be separated by life and death, and I'm afraid that you will lose your life if you implicate you."

Li Luo was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then asked softly after a while: "Do you still remember when you took me out of Shadow Hall, you told your master why you chose me?"

Lin Sishen looked up at Li Luo, recalling in a daze: "I said I was not hiring you, but to save people."

Li Luo's cold eyes seemed to be mixed with a hint of gentleness: "Master asked you who you wanted to hire me to save. You didn't answer at that time. Later I asked you, but you said you hired me to save the person you wanted to save. At that time, I didn't know what you meant, and now I understand."
