Two of her subordinates also stood up and followed her.
Rui'er walked to the counter. Shopkeeper Bai stopped calculating the accounts. He raised his head and said enthusiastically: "Ma'am, do you have any instructions?"
Rui'er said: "Your lion's head tastes really good. I want to ask the cook how to make it. Once I learn how to make it, I can make it for my master."
Shopkeeper Bai smiled and said: "The cook is my nephew, and I taught him his skills."
Rui'er said happily: "I see, then please teach me the shopkeeper. I will reward you heavily."
Shopkeeper Bai thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
Then the two began to whisper. It seemed that shopkeeper Bai was teaching Rui'er cooking skills, but in fact the two were having a secret conversation. The two subordinates stood beside Rui'er and looked around the diners in the store alertly.
The other three people were still sitting at the table eating and drinking.
Lin Yi was clearing away the dishes on a table outside his home. He secretly observed the two men. Lin Yi felt that these two men were also from Tianji Palace.
If this is the case, then Rui'er is not the only disciple of Tianji Palace beside Gu Lingfeng.
…
At this moment, Xiao Lianqin also arrived in the backyard, and Gu Lingfeng was waiting for her behind the toilet.
The two whispered quietly.
Xiao Lianqin said: "Senior Brother Gu, why did you come to Jiangcheng?"
Gu Lingfeng said: "Rui'er misses her uncle and is coming to visit. I happened to be free, so I just accompanied her. We plan to stay in the city for one night and go to Hao Cun'er tomorrow to visit her uncle."
Xiao Lianqin stared at him and said: "Senior brother, you and I are brothers. You made a big mistake back then, and I was the one who manipulated you to make you guilty. I also completely forgive you and still treat you sincerely. So please don't hide it, senior brother.
I!"
Xiao Lianqin's words made Gu Lingfeng confused. He whispered: "Lianqin, I really didn't hide it from you. I will never lie to anyone again. What happened?"
Xiao Lianqin said: "Then tell me, are you from Tianji Palace?"
Gu Lingfeng said: "Tianji Palace? Didn't the master say that Tianji Palace had disappeared long ago? Lianqin, how can I be from Tianji Palace? Can you explain it more clearly!"
Hearing what Gu Lingfeng said, Xiao Lianqin understood, but Gu Lingfeng was also in the dark.
Xiao Lianqin said: "Senior brother, your Rui'er is from Tianji Palace. And her status is not low. She is hiding next to you, I'm afraid she has evil intentions..."
Gu Lingfeng was shocked when he heard this, but he couldn't believe it. Gu Lingfeng said: "She is so good... she thinks about everything for me, how could she be from Tianji Palace! Lianqin, are you mistaken?
"
Xiao Lianqin said: "There is not much time to elaborate now, and the situation is also urgent. I want you to say something now. Do you believe me or her?"
Gu Lingfeng hesitated, but he still said in an affirmative tone: "I believe you!"
Xiao Lianqin was very pleased and said: "Then you do as I say..."
Xiao Lianqin whispered in Gu Lingfeng's ear, and Gu Lingfeng returned to the inn after listening.
At this moment, Rui'er had "asked for advice" from shopkeeper Bai on how to cook and returned to the table to continue eating and drinking. Gu Lingfeng also sat down. Although he was upset when he learned the truth, Gu Lingfeng remained calm on the surface.
After finishing their meal, Gu Lingfeng, Rui'er and their men went to the guest room on the second floor to rest.
After they went upstairs, shopkeeper Bai pretended to accidentally break the teapot on the counter, causing the tea to flow out. Lin Yi went over to clean it up. Taking this opportunity, shopkeeper Bai whispered to Lin Yi: "I reported something to Liang Mei first. Liang Mei
Tell me, there is an order from above. King Lin must die this time. Therefore, no matter how King Lin changes and hides, you must be found. As for how to kill King Lin, the palace owner has a clever plan. Finally, she told me
, In a few days, there will be a big event in Tianji Palace. She will notify me then."
Lin Yi nodded.
Lin Yi cleaned up the counter, and shopkeeper Bai told him: "The female guest in the seventh guest room upstairs asked for a basin of water. She also said that the floor in the guest room was dirty. Go and clean it up."
Lin Yi brought a basin of water upstairs.
Entering the corridor, Lin Yi saw two men standing at the door of a room. They were Rui'er's two men. They were protecting Mr. Gu and his wife.
At this time another guest came upstairs.
This man was in his fifties or sixties, with gray hair and a thick, neatly trimmed beard. He looked like he was dressed like a businessman.
He walked behind Lin Yi, less than ten feet apart. Lin Yi felt as if there was wind blowing from behind. Lin Yi understood that this was not wind. It was Qi. It was the Qi emitted by the businessman behind him as he walked.
It was emitted unintentionally and was extremely weak, but Lin Yi felt it.
Lin Yi immediately understood that this businessman was a master with profound cultivation.
Lin Yi calmly carried the basin of water to the door of Lu Yaozhu's room. Lin Yi shouted twice inside. Lu Yaozhu opened the door and Lin Yi went in.
The door is double closed.
The businessman also entered his room.
Lin Yi entered the room and put the basin of water on the ground. Then he went to the window and lifted up the screen and jumped out. It was nightfall and it was dark outside.
Lin Yi quietly sneaked under the window of Gu Lingfeng's room in the dark.
Lin Yi then held his breath and listened carefully to the sounds in the room.
At this moment, Gu Lingfeng and Rui'er were talking in the room.
Just listen to Rui'er say: "Brother Feng, look at your serious appearance, what do you want to say to Rui'er?"
Gu Lingfeng in the room looked at Rui'er in front of her. In the candlelight, Rui'er looked even more delicate and beautiful.
Gu Lingfeng said: "Ruier, how do I treat you?"
Rui'er said: "Okay! It's not ordinary. I feel like the happiest woman in the world now. Brother Feng, Rui'er will definitely treat you twice as well. You and I will be the most loving couple in the world..."
As she spoke, Rui'er peeled off a grape. She pinched the grape with her crystal-clear fingers and wanted to feed it to Gu Lingfeng.
Gu Lingfeng opened his mouth, and Rui'er smiled tenderly and put the grape into his mouth.
She was about to shrink back and peel the grapes for Gu Lingfeng to eat, when Gu Lingfeng suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
It was so hard that Rui'er felt pain.
Gu Lingfeng stared at her with a strange look, then slowly chewed and swallowed the grape.
Gu Lingfeng said: "I told you everything. Including the big mistake I made back then, including how Junior Brother Lianqin manipulated me to save my life. In short, I didn't hide anything from you. Because I feel that you are the most important person in my life.
My favorite woman, so I can’t lie to you. But why would you lie to me?”
Gu Lingfeng's expression was also full of resentment.
Rui'er hurriedly said aggrievedly: "I was honest with Brother Feng and didn't hide anything. What happened to you? Why did you suddenly become so weird?"
Gu Lingfeng grabbed Rui'er's hand harder and harder, and said: "Actually, I knew it a long time ago. But I never questioned you. I just hoped that you would take the initiative to tell me. But you didn't. You still lied to me. This time you
You said you came to visit your uncle, but you lied. I followed you because I love you and don't want you to leave me. I have been extremely kind to you..."
Rui'er looked excited and said: "Brother Feng, what on earth are you talking about? Rui'er really can't understand. How can you tell me...where did I lie to you?"
Gu Lingfeng said with resentment: "You have been lying to me from beginning to end. Your name is not Rui'er at all, your name is Liang Mei. You are from Tianji Palace!"
