"Lu Gong, do you still have any secrets hidden in yourself?" Liu Nianru asked.

Although there was nothing wrong with Lu Gong's reaction, she always felt that something was wrong, as if he was deliberately hiding something.

"What a secret is there in me." Lu Gong shook his head.

It's just that fleeting bitterness, but no one notices it.

Duan Bailan glanced at Lu Gong and asked Liu Nianru, "Are you done asking?"

Liu Nianru nodded slightly, but she felt that there was something wrong.

At the beginning, he said that he had to protect the secret with all his life, but now Duan Bailan has already asked it in a few words, which is really a little untrue.

And Duan Bailan had already helped Lu Gong open the lock, released him, and said: "There is a secret passage here, which can go directly to the foot of Hongfu Mountain, where there is already a carriage waiting for you, you are incognito, don't come back."

Lu Gong was a little surprised, and then a cold sweat broke out on his body.

Duan Bailan told him before that he was letting him go down the mountain tomorrow, and he would let him go now, and he also used the secret passage that was unknown to others in this temple.

He was so dangerous, Duan Bailan almost had the intention of killing him.

However, now that he let himself go, he is not worried about encountering another ambush.

And Duan Bailan opened the secret passage and just motioned for him to leave.

"Lord Wang, I don't know when I will see you again. In the future, if you can have a place to use me again, Lu Gong will never give up. Lu Gong knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Duan Bailan.

He was confined here, and it wasn't because of Duan Bailan's protection. Duan Bailan also has a life-saving grace for him.

"I don't ask you for anything in return, stay away from Qingling in the future, don't go to her again. The disparity between your identities is like a difference between you and mud, and there will be no results. Duan Bailan said lightly.

Lu Gong didn't speak, he bowed again, and left.

Liu Nianru then remembered that she still had a question she hadn't asked.

What is the entanglement between him and the eldest princess? If the emperor killed Lu Gong because Duan Bailan was a descendant of Prince Gong and didn't want to reveal this secret, what about the eldest princess?

It stands to reason that among them, only one person is enough to chase and kill Lu Gong, so why bother the two of them to go out together. And judging from the pursuit of Jiangnan, the eldest princess and the emperor did not know that the other party was chasing Lu Gong.

She told Duan Bailan what she was thinking, and Duan Bailan shook her head helplessly.

"People have already walked away before you remember to ask this question." Duan Bailan rubbed the broken hair on her forehead and said.

"I don't believe it, I can think of it, you can't think of it, do you know something?" Liu Nianru asked.

Duan Bailan's influence is all over the country, especially now that there are secret agents trained by Liu Nianru for him, it is naturally not a problem to get information or something.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go out and talk." Duan Bailan said.

Thinking of this, she didn't ask any more questions, and went out with Duan Bailan.

The little monk who delivered the food was still standing at the entrance of the passage, waiting for them. As soon as Duan Bailan appeared, he bent down and saluted.

"Well, you don't have to send any more food in the future." Duan Bailan said.

The little monk was stunned, and didn't seem to react.

Liu Nianru kindly added: "As for the people, they have been let go just now, you remember to report to the abbot when you go back."

The little monk was still a little lost, and he didn't know what he was sorry for. Or maybe no one embarrassed him anymore and asked him to bring meat.

It's just that none of this is a big deal.

What Liu Wanyan said was true, and at dusk, Xiao Yan climbed up to Hongfu Temple with Qingling, preparing to settle here for the night.

If there are so many big people living in ordinary monasteries, even if they are all monks, they will inevitably be a little trembling. But the abbot is not, how to arrange it, or how to arrange it, and there is no panic.

Liu Nianru still listened to what Changwu said, she only had a deal with Xiao Yan, and she didn't hate Liu Wanyan as much as she did.

It's just that why did Xiao Yan come to the temple and bring Qingling? Especially Lu Gong has just come down the mountain.

She felt that Xiao Yan seemed to know something, and things were definitely not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

She doesn't go out for a walk, but that doesn't mean no one is looking for her.

Early in the morning of the second day, Changwu opened the door with a complicated mood and saw Qing Ling and Xiao Yan who had already dressed up.

"Changwu, I heard that Sister Nianru came to this Hongfu Temple a few days ago, is it really a coincidence? Is Sister Nianru freshened up? Qing Ling blinked his eyes wide, and said to Changwu with a wink.

Chang Wu said respectfully and politely: "I have seen the Qingling County Lord, and I have seen the Seven Princes. It's just that the lord of my family hasn't gotten up yet, so come back later. ”

This is what Liu Nianru ordered before, let Changwu really say. She knew that Qingling was sticking to her tightly, and if she couldn't find her, she probably went to stick to Duan Bailan.

Sure enough, although Qing Ling was a little disappointed, he still discussed with Xiao Yan: "It's not good to disturb Sister Nianru's Qingmeng, why don't we go to Brother Duan first?" Seventh brother, what do you think? ”

Xiao Yan shook his fan, his eyes kept on the back of Chang Wu, as if Liu Nianru would suddenly appear there.

"Then let's go visit Duan Wang Ye first." Xiao Yan said.

They turned around and were about to leave, but Duan Bailan's courtyard door suddenly opened, and behind him was Wang Xun, who was in high spirits.

With a surprised expression, he walked over and said, "Did you also come to find Ru'er this morning?"

When Changwu heard the word "also", she was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Liu Nianru's original intention was to send them to Duan Bailan, but he never thought that Duan Wang Ye would come to Liu Nianru early in the morning.

It's really early and coincidental.

"Brother Duan!" Qingling exclaimed sweetly.

"Lord Wang, long time no see." Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows lightly and said.

"How can it be a long time, not long ago, the Seventh Prince visited the palace at night, but he was very concerned about this king." Duan Bailan said.

What he was referring to was Xiao Yan taking the blueprints of the memorial crossbow in the middle of the night to please Liu Nianru.

Xiao Yan didn't expect this matter Duan Bailan didn't know, not to mention that with the deployment of the palace's troops, he could be regarded as a dismount when he entered.

"I'm bothering." Xiao Yan admitted it clearly.

Qingling was confused, but she didn't bother to ask. Because most of the time she couldn't understand what they were saying, so why did she still ask everything? What's more, it has nothing to do with yourself.

"Brother Duan, Sister Nianru hasn't gotten up yet, why don't we go and sit in your yard, how about it?" Qing Ling proposed.

She and Xiao Yan's courtyard was still some distance away from here, so it was naturally more convenient to live in Duan Bailan's place.
