The city lord is dead, and Liu Nianru doesn't have much expression. I've wanted to kill this guy for a long time. And in this situation, this city lord can't stay, and sooner or later it will be a scourge.

The city lord died, and Liu Nianru was the only one left in the secret room.

There are all kinds of signs that Yao Jing is not in the secret room, and Liu Nianru will not waste time looking for people, and the top priority is to leave this secret room first.

After this wave of short swords was shot, there was no movement in the secret room, and Liu Nianru waited for a while before continuing to walk forward. Fortunately, there is only one way to this secret room, otherwise it would have taken some time.

Before he had taken two steps, he heard a "click", which was the sound of the mechanism activating.

Liu Nianru scolded secretly. Why did you step on the mechanism again, what did this city lord want to do when he made this place like this?

A big stone in front of him rolled to this side, Liu Nianru hurriedly retreated, I don't know where it was pressed again, the wall was overturned, the big stone rolled by, and Liu Nianru escaped.

Hearing that the stone was rolling away, Liu Nianru had the heart to look here, this was a stone room, and there were some gold and silver treasures in it, thinking that it should be the place where the city lord hid the treasure.

Looking at this amount, I have been greedy a lot over the years. Liu Nianru plans to take out some of these things and return them to the people, help Duan Bailan accumulate public opinion, and confiscate the rest for military use.

Well, now it's time to think about how to get out.

Looking around, it doesn't look like there is any mechanism, and Liu Nianru is not very good at finding organs, so she groped for the walls of the stone room, but she didn't find any mechanisms or anything like that, and Liu Nianru now had to sit in the stone room and worry.

Suddenly, Liu Nianru caught a glimpse of the calligraphy and paintings on a shelf that were different from those placed next to it. Maybe not, but you still have to give it a try, right?

Fortunately, Liu Nianru came to try, this painting is indeed a mechanism, after turning the scroll ninety degrees, a wall slowly rose, Liu Nianru's eyes lit up, and he could finally go out.

"I don't know if Duan Bailan and they found Yao Jing." Liu Nianru muttered as she walked towards the tunnel.

The tunnel was not long, although it was a little winding and turning, it was also walking upward, and a quarter of an hour later, Liu Nianru came out of a small alley next to the City Lord's Mansion.

"Where have you been?" As soon as Liu Nianru entered the door, she met Duan Bailan, looking at the worry in the other party's eyes, Liu Nianru smiled and opened her mouth to explain to Duan Bailan.

"I saw the city master running at that time, so I arrested him, I wanted to ask Yao Jing's location, but I didn't expect to be taken into the secret room."

"How? Are there any injuries? Hearing about the secret room, Duan Bailan was a little anxious, and hurriedly pulled Liu Nianru to see if she was injured.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Liu Nianru patted Duan Bailan's arm, and then continued, "And I found the City Lord's Treasure Pavilion inside, I want to ......"

After telling Duan Bailan his thoughts, Duan Bailan immediately sent someone to go into the secret room with Liu Nianru to get the wealth of the original city lord.

As for Yao Jing, he was also found and locked in a water prison under the City Lord's Mansion, and it seemed that he was suffering a lot, Duan Bailan handed Yao Jing over to the military doctor, and he didn't ask again.

After distributing a part of the finances according to Liu Nianru's plan, the time was already in the afternoon, alas, it was delayed for another day, but it was ...... Looking at the grateful expressions of the people of Yaocheng, Duan Bailan felt that it was quite worthwhile.

If the emperor is really so ruthless, what can he do if he overthrows him and re-establishes a new policy? For the sake of future life, it is better to plan early.

After explaining to the current Yaocheng City Lord, Duan Bailan planned to continue the march, but he had been delayed for many days.

Duan Bailan gave an order, and five thousand people left Yaocheng again and continued to march northeast.

On the Teikyo side.

Near evening, General Liu entered the palace to face the saint.

"Your Majesty, Ru'er is following King Ding?" General Liu squinted his eyes, and did not lower his posture at all because the person in front of him was the emperor, because General Liu came for Liu Nianru today.

"Yes." The emperor did not hide it, and did not mention that he had concealed this matter.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" General Liu glanced at the emperor.

"General Liu, Duan Bailan, we have a common enemy, and if we want to get rid of him, we must sacrifice something." The emperor narrowed his eyes, unable to see his emotions.

"Your Majesty has forgotten why the minister promised His Majesty to get rid of King Ding." General Liu got up and bowed to the emperor.

The emperor frowned, "That's it, I promise you, I won't hurt Liu Nianru." "Although it is said that it is a word, let alone His Majesty's golden mouth, no one hears it, and the emperor's heart also has his own little ninety-nine.

With the protection of His Majesty the Emperor, General Liu also relaxed, sat back in his seat, and discussed with the Emperor how to get rid of Duan Bailan.

"Since General Liu also knows that your daughter is by Duan Bailan's side, why don't General Liu send someone to protect Liu Nianru." The emperor looked at General Liu, his eyes full of treachery.

"Commandment." General Liu saluted, and then retreated, saying that it sounded good to protect Liu Nianru, but didn't he just want to monitor Duan Bailan, but General Liu didn't stop it, Duan Bailan really needed to be monitored.

In the evening.

Duan Bailan camped on the road to rest, and after a while, he received two letters, one from Wang Xun and one from the emperor.

In the letter, Wang Xun said that the army had chosen the wrong road, because the map had not been updated for a long time, and the villages that were originally marked had become swamps, so they needed to take a detour.

In this way, the army lagged behind Duan Bailan and them again. Duan Bailan wrote back to Wang Xun and told him to be careful and not to be impatient.

On the emperor's side, he said that General Liu was worried about his daughter and wanted to send someone to protect Liu Nianru, and also explained the basic situation of this person.

When Liu Nianru saw the letter, it was clearly sent to monitor her group, and what protection she said was really high-sounding.

"Why don't we kill this person directly, and the emperor won't be able to know the situation on our side." Liu Nianru suggested that it was not that she didn't know how to scheming, but that she thought it was too troublesome, and it was better to solve it with a knife, and she didn't have to think about it.

"No." Duan Bailan directly vetoed Liu Nianru, "You killed one,

There will be another one. There is no way to solve the problem if you continue like this. Let him come, there is nothing to be afraid of. We're on the lookout for something that might even take advantage of him. ”

Liu Nianru sighed, it would be really troublesome to watch out for another person in the future.

Although he was not afraid of people coming, Duan Bailan still asked someone to check on the person who was about to be sent to spy on him.

He was faster than Duan Bailan and the others, but it would take a few days to arrive.
