The moment Zhao Yuan turned around and left, he put on a cold face, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, filled with determination and hatred.
"Master Yuan, where are we going?" Xiaodouzi followed Zhao Yuan and watched him turn and leave, but did not go to Guo Wanrou's residence.
"Go and deal with some necessary matters!" Zhao Yuan's eyes flashed coldly.
Xiaodouzi didn't speak again and followed him closely. There were too many changes this night, and he vaguely felt that Zhao Yuan was about to take action.
Xiaodouzi is a person who understands the entanglement between Leng Changxi and Zhao Yuan. Leng Changxi is Zhao Yuan's bottom line. He can tolerate Guo Wanrou's arrogance and domineering because he still needs the Guo family. But the situation is gradually changing.
, the Guo family is already a threat to Zhao Yuan. This time, the Lingshan incident happened in the side hall, and anyone with a discerning eye can vaguely guess that the incident is closely related to Guo Wanrou.
Zhao Yuan walked quickly back to the main hall and whispered to Xiaodouzi: "Go and call Mr. Leng over..."
Before he finished speaking, a figure walked out of the main hall. He rushed to Zhao Yuan anxiously: "Zhao Yuan, what's going on?"
At the time of the incident, Leng Zhanchen was not in the Wende Hall. He had just come back and heard people talking about it, saying that an assassin had entered the side hall, and that the woman who lived in the bamboo forest was related to the assassin. Immediately, Leng Zhanchen
Chen was startled and broke into a cold sweat.
"Zhan Chen..." Zhao Yuan's eyebrows flashed with guilt and distress: "Lingshan was plotted against and died!"
Leng Zhanchen took a deep breath when he heard this. Although Lingshan was not his, he was still a member of the Leng family and had grown up together. Besides, Leng Changxi's feelings for Lingshan were the same as those of a sister.
What happened to Lingshan was probably a big blow to Leng Changxi.
"So, how is Little Baoer, how is she..." Leng Zhanchen's eyes could not hide his worry.
However, Zhao Yuan shook his head gently: "Lingshan was killed with a sword in her arms. She..."
Thinking of the empty despair and sadness on Leng Changxi's face, Zhao Yuan still felt scared.
No need for Zhao Yuan to finish his words, Leng Zhanchen had already guessed the terrible consequences.
Taking a deep breath, Leng Zhanchen slowly closed his eyes, opened them again, turned around and walked out resolutely.
Zhao Yuan had quick eyesight and quickly grabbed him: "Where are you going?"
"I want to go see her!" Leng Zhanchen's voice was hoarse and distressed.
Hearing this, Zhao Yuan shook his head slightly: "Don't go, she can't be disturbed now, just let her stay quietly for a while."
In fact, Zhao Yuan didn't want Leng Zhanchen to go because he was afraid that Leng Zhanchen would be impulsive and do something after seeing Leng Changxi's sad look.
"Yes, who is it?" Leng Zhanchen's eyes were about to split, and there was a cold light in his eyes. Zhao Yuan overestimated his endurance. Even if he didn't see Leng Changxi, Leng Zhanchen still couldn't help the urge to kill.
Zhao Yuan's eyes flickered for a moment, and his thin lips coldly spit out a name that Leng Zhanchen had never heard of: "Qingfeng."
Leng Zhanchen frowned quietly: "Who is it?"
"If it's correct, it should be Guo Wanrou's person." Zhao Yuan clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves. He had always known about the Guo family's bribery of people in the world under his nose, but it was just that they were not powerful at that time.
She could only turn a blind eye. But in the face of his repeated tolerance, the Guo family and Guo Wanrou were repeatedly arrogant. If he took a step back, she would push forward. If he, Zhao Yuan, could endure it any longer, the entire
I'm afraid that the country will fall into the hands of the Guo family!
"Xiao Baoer gave me one day to bury Lingshan with Qingfeng's head. She said, if you don't know who Qingfeng is, just ask Guo Wanrou!" Zhao Yuan said coldly, with a sharp look in his eyes.
Leng Zhanchen's hand was slightly bent, with veins protruding on the back of his hand. His eyes flashed with bloodthirsty light. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "Guo Wanrou! I will cut her into pieces!"
"Don't worry, it's not the time yet!" Zhao Yuan stopped Leng Zhanchen's impulse with a deep voice: "How did you go about the things I asked you to arrange before?"
Leng Zhanchen took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "The Guo family has been secretly communicating with people in the world, and I have all the evidence. Once the emperor appoints you as the prince, we can collect the evidence
Leave it to the Xia family. The Xia family has made arrangements. All you need is an order from you to step up and stab the Guo family in front of the emperor! In addition, there are several important ministers in the court who can rely on. So.
, you don’t have to worry about being implicated by the Guo family.”
As for the Guo family, Zhao Yuan began to plan for this day since the day he was unable to resist and could only accept it. Marrying Mrs. Xia and doting on her alone before Leng Changxi came. This was a step-by-step plan.
Plan, you can start closing the network now!
"Regarding Qingfeng, I will go to Guo Wanrou to ask for someone, but just in case, you go and find out the whereabouts of this person. No matter what, his head must be removed before sunset tomorrow!" Zhao Yuan said with a blank expression.
Although his expression was cold, his anger at the moment could be seen from his cold tone.
Hearing this, Leng Zhanchen nodded solemnly, turned around and disappeared into the dark night filled with blood without saying a word.
Lingfeng didn't know how long Leng Changxi had been lying in the forest. He only knew that when he received the news and hurried back to the palace, what he saw was this scene - Leng Changxi's arms were tightly holding the morning face.
Lingshan, who was bloodless and stiff all over, was humming a tune softly in her mouth, her voice was hoarse and cracked. A thin coat was put on her body, and a thin layer of frost had already fallen on it.
The forest was silent, and Leng Changxi's tuneless ditty was whirling in the wind. It sounded a little strange, but it could make people feel sad.
A gust of wind swept by, and the bamboo leaves drifted with the wind, swirling and falling on the two of them. The scene was so beautiful that it was dazzling.
Lingfeng stood in the distance and watched this scene, without moving for a long time. His eyes were sore, and something wanted to break free, but in the end, they were still dry.
He didn't dare to get close, not at all. Looking at it from a distance, he could still imagine that this was just a dream. When he woke up from the dream, everything was sunny again.
However, no matter how long he stood there, this scene was like a painting, frozen there forever. The petite figure in Leng Changxi's arms affected all Lingshan's emotions.
"Lingfeng! Call me Miss! Don't be too big or too young!"
"Lingfeng! Let's go see where the lady is?"
"Lingfeng! Don't always help the young lady to commit crimes!"
"Lingfeng! You have to protect the young lady, and you have to protect her well all your life!"
"Lingfeng! Lingfeng! Lingfeng!"...
Ling Shan's voice sounded over and over again in his mind, and Leng Changxi was inseparable from every sentence.
