Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Shadow

Liu Nianru looked down at Duan Bailan, his jade-like face was placed in front of him, staring straight at him. She was inexplicably flustered.

Duan Bailan's feelings for her, she was actually vaguely aware of it before, but she didn't want to face it all the time.

"Duan Bailan, I-" she said in a slurred voice.

His eyes twinkled, and he looked at her expectantly.

Finally, she calmed down and said, "I don't like you. ”

He froze, his eyelashes fluttering slightly.

Obviously, she likes herself, but why don't you dare to admit it?

"Duan Bailan, it is impossible for us to be together, we are simply people from two worlds." Liu Nianru closed her eyes and said.

She comes from the 21st century, and she's the best killer.

She had seen so many people who were obsessed with power that she couldn't believe that there was still truth in this world.

What's more, Duan Bailan has royal blood, and he is such an ambitious person. She did not dare to put her feelings on such a person.

"Why?" Duan Bailan stood up, grabbed her hand, stared at her eagerly and asked,

All the evidence points to the fact that she likes herself, but she just keeps avoiding their relationship.

"There is no reason, the prince is thoughtful, and the prince and I still maintain the original cooperative relationship, and the water does not interfere with the river. As for the rest, don't think too much about it. Liu Nianru said.

She shook off Duan Bailan's hand and distanced herself from him, not looking into his eyes.

"In that case, I see." Duan Bailan said, his eyes were unconcealable disappointment, and then turned around and left.

The door creaked, and his footsteps were soft, but they seemed to step on her heart.

Liu Nianru sat down with her chest covered, and suddenly felt a little breathless, Duan Bailan's face kept playing back in front of her eyes, his joy, his expectation, and his loss.

Changwu and Aya packed their things and came in, they saw Liu Nianru looking like she had lost her soul, and hurriedly asked, "County Lord, is something happening?" ”

"No, no." Liu Nianru said.

She stared at the window, which had a hole in the paper. A cold wind passed through, and she suddenly felt a little cold.

Changwu followed Liu Nianru's gaze, and she also found the hole.

"County Lord, wait a minute, I'll go and paste this layer of window paper later, it's almost winter now, and it's easy to catch a cold." Changwu said.

As she spoke, she put down what she was holding and went out to find someone to mend the window.

In the past few days, she unexpectedly did not go to the barracks, as if she had lost her mind, and sat in the courtyard all day.

In the afternoon of this day, Chang Wu and Aya went shopping with Wang Xun, and they also figured out Liu Nianru's temperament, living together like this, it was no different from their family.

She sat alone in the yard again.

Suddenly, a masked man appeared behind her.

That's her exclusive dark line, codenamed Shadow, who specializes in providing her with all kinds of things to do in Kyoto.

Much more reliable than the gossip of the long dance and hearsay.

"What? Did something happen again? Liu Nianru asked.

If it weren't for something big happening in Kyoto, the shadows wouldn't have come out easily.

"Back to the county lord, although the prince said that he was sick and avoided going to the north, the emperor took the opportunity to seize the prince's military power. He ordered yesterday to let General Zhao temporarily replace the prince and take the northern army to the border. Shadow said.

Liu Nianru squinted her eyes, the emperor deserves to be the emperor, and he is scheming, even if it is so, he has to calculate Duan Bailan.

"Does the prince know about this now?" Liu Nianru asked.

Shadow replied, "Moon Shadow should have told the prince about this by now. ”

Moon Shadow is Duan Bailan's exclusive dark line, but Moon Shadow and Shadow belong to the same level, and the two are friends, so it is inevitable that they will exchange news.

This is equivalent to Liu Nianru and Duan Bailan using the same information system together, and they are open and transparent with each other.

If it was in the past, Liu Nianru wouldn't think there was anything wrong with this, after all, this set of information systems was designed by her, and the people here were also cultivated by her.

After the incident that Duan Bai Lan confessed a few days ago, she felt that this seemed a little ambiguous.

"Shadow, you don't want to exchange news with Moon Shadow in the future, no one who belongs to me is allowed to communicate with Duan Bailan." Liu Nianru said.

"Why is that?" Shadow asked, puzzled.

In their opinion, the county lord and the prince are a community of destiny, and they are convinced of both of them. Moreover, the power given by the prince to the county lord is not under the prince, and he can almost do whatever he wants.

They all thought that the county lord and the prince would definitely be together. Even the Qingling County Lord didn't have this kind of honor in the past?

"What? Are you questioning me? Liu Nianru said with some displeasure.

Why are they all so taken for granted?

"The shadow doesn't dare, the shadow is naturally the only one who is the county master." Shadow said.

He was puzzled, but he answered. Maybe the prince and the county lord have other more important things?

"Stand down." After Liu Nianru finished speaking, she completely closed her eyes.

I don't know if it's really sleep, or fake sleep.

At the same time, Duan Bailan, who learned the news, was in the study, with Moon Shadow beside him.

Moon Shadow and Shadow are wearing the same touch, and they are also similar in size, because the training patterns are similar, so it is difficult for people to tell which of the two of them is who.

"It's really interesting, leading the Northern Army, which General Zhao is it?" Duan Bailan asked.

"It was the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Zhao Yan, who was personally promoted by the emperor." Moon Shadow said.

Zhao Yan, when he was in the palace before, it was rumored that he was the emperor's most loyal dog, sitting on the position of deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and he was beautiful for a while.

With him in charge of the Northern Army, it seems that the emperor has the intention to take the Northern Army as his own.

"Have you exchanged the list in the Northern Army?" Duan Bailan asked.

For an army, the core is always its generals, those soldiers who have undergone training

Of course, it is also very important, but it is not comparable to the status of a general.

"Back to the prince, high-ranking generals like Yuan Shen have already hidden into our assassin alliance and will not serve General Zhao. The list of generals of the Northern Army is absolutely secret, so they will not be aware of it. Moon Shadow replied.

Duan Bailan nodded, a small part of the thousand people who were cultivated by Liu Nianru had stayed in the Northern Expeditionary Army before, and the vast majority had entered the Assassin Alliance.

The League of Assassins is one of their killer features.

"By the way, you let Chen Qin and Chang Ying stay, the two of them often follow me and show their faces on behalf of the Northern Army, so as not to let them notice." Duan Bailan said.
