"My injuries are almost healed, your concerns are right, this is a critical period, and the less people know about my whereabouts, the better. An Ran said.

Leng Zhen nodded, he was still very worried about An Ran, he knew that An Ran was a very strong person, and he couldn't say anything, originally he wanted to tell Lin Yin about it, but An Ran didn't agree anyway, so he had to give up.

Now he only thinks that this matter will pass quickly, and An Ran's body will get better quickly, leaving no root cause of illness.

"Leng Shu, there is one more thing to trouble you. An Ran said.

"I know what the eldest lady wants to say, don't worry, I will always keep an eye on Granny Lin's side, but I think that since the eldest lady is no longer on the farm, even if some clues are found, but there is no evidence, I guess I won't dare to treat them like this." Leng Zhen analyzed.

"I hope so. Either way, you'll have to take care of it. Granny Lin, they are so kind to me, and I must not let them be implicated. An Ran sighed.

"Don't worry, Miss, I won't let them have anything to do. Leng Zhen assured.

The two chatted for a while, the sky was a little dark, Leng Zhen got up, and said: "Miss, I'll go down the mountain first, in a few days, I will come up again, and then I will bring you the news of the traitor, and then how to deal with it, and then ask the eldest lady to decide." Leng Zhen promised An Ran.

"Okay, there's Lao Lengshu. Stay safe when going down. An Ran said.

After sending away the cold shock, the sky had already darkened, An Ran looked outside the cave, and his eyebrows couldn't help frowning, why hasn't Xiaobai come back yet, usually at this time, he should have come back a long time ago.

An Ran walked uneasily in the cave, she wanted to go out to find Xiaobai, but the snow mountain was so big, and she was afraid that she would go in the wrong direction, and when Xiaobai came back, she saw that she was not there, maybe she would go out to find her again.

So, she decided to wait and see in the cave, and after half an hour, if Xiaobai hadn't come back, she would go out to look for it.

Time passed minute by minute, An Ran paced back and forth in the cave, and finally, a moment later, Xiaobai walked in.

An Ran ran over excitedly, squatted down, touched Xiaobai's head, and said, "Xiaobai, where have you been?" I'm so worried about you, do you know it." ”

It's good to be back, as soon as Xiaobai came back, she suddenly felt a lot more relieved.

With a faint smile on his face, An Ran hugged Xiaobai's head and put his face close to it.

After a long time, she let go of Xiaobai, and then saw Xiaobai holding something in her mouth, and An Ran looked closer suspiciously, as if it was something like ginseng.

She stretched out her hand and took it out from Xiaobai's mouth, this is the snow ginseng on the wild snow-capped mountains, which has a miraculous effect on nourishing the body and enhancing the physique.

Could it be that Xiaobai came back so late just to pick this snow ginseng?

She had heard that the environment in which this snow ginseng grows is very difficult, and it is very difficult to pick it.

Thinking of this, An Ran hugged Xiaobai tightly again, regardless of his own danger, he picked a snow ginseng for her to nourish her body.

Somehow, her eyes suddenly felt a little moist, An Ran was speechless, or rather, she didn't know what to say, so she could only hug Xiaobai tightly and let it feel her thoughts.

Five days later, Leng Zhen came up the mountain again, this time, he had found the cave himself, walked in directly, and saw An Ran boiling water, Xiaobai did not go out, but lay down beside her very tamely, accompanying her.

"Miss, your complexion looks much better. Leng Zhen looked at An Ran and said, in just a few days, the eldest lady's face has become much ruddy, which is very different from the last time I saw her.

An Ran smiled lightly, glanced at Xiaobai next to him, and said, "Thanks to Xiaobai." ”

Then, An Ran told Leng Zhu about Xiaobai picking snow ginseng for her, and Leng Zhen listened very incredible, animals can be so psychic.

Leng Zhen was once again impressed by Xiaobai.

"Leng Shu, is there any news to tell me this time?" An Ran found that Leng Zhen came up this time and brought a lot less things, at most only three days of daily necessities and food.

So she guessed that the situation outside might have changed.

"The eldest lady is really as smart as the main mother. Leng Zhen praised with a smile, looked at An Ran and continued: "I don't know why, the new emperor doesn't search your whereabouts now, all the soldiers sent out have withdrawn back, and I have also found out the traitor, according to the instructions of the eldest lady, first locked up, and then how to deal with it, please instruct." ”

Two days ago, he found out that Nan Lingye had recalled the soldiers, and it seemed that he had given up searching An Ran's whereabouts, but he was still not sure, Nan Lingye was scheming, and it was hard to guarantee that he was just pretending, in order to lure An Ran out by himself.

"Who is the mole?" An Ran asked in a deep voice, she was very concerned about this question.

Hearing this, Leng Zhen lowered his eyelids with some guilt, shook his head slowly, and said ashamedly: "Miss, this matter is ashamed, I don't know people clearly, I believe the wrong person, and I betrayed you, it's my buddy who has been with me for five years." ”

"That young man?" An Ran frowned and asked, when she first came to Beichu, it was that person who received her, and every action after that, Leng Zhen took him with him, looking very real, but she didn't expect it to be the person who betrayed her.

Sure enough, knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, just like her, she also believed Nan Lingye wrongly at the beginning, which led to today's fate.

"Yes, it's him!" Leng Zhen became more and more ashamed and guilty the more he spoke, if it weren't for his unclear acquaintance, he wouldn't let the eldest lady

Suffering like this, I came to this snowy mountain, "Miss, this matter is my fault, and I accept any punishment from you." ”

"Leng Shu, it's none of your business, you keep him under strict control now, and you must not let him come into contact with other people, otherwise, my whereabouts will still be exposed. An Ran explained.

"Miss, don't worry, I know what to do, everything is according to your orders, all this will not go wrong. In addition, in your opinion, how credible can the new emperor be in recalling the soldiers?" Leng Zhen asked.

"Nan Lingye's scheming is very deep, and this matter cannot be conclusive. An Ran said. For Nan Lingye, she knows too well, something must have happened, or what plan he has, otherwise he wouldn't have withdrawn for no reason.

"I think so too, so I have to grieve the eldest lady for a while, and when this matter is implemented, I will pick you up again. I'm afraid that Nan Lingye has some plan, if he wants to lure you back by yourself, it will be miserable. Leng Zhen said.

An Ran's safety is the most important thing, no matter what, he must implement it first, and only after it is determined can he dare to take An Ran back.

"Well, no matter what, you have to be careful. An Ran admonished.

"What's going on with Yanyun?" This matter is related to An Ran's life and status in Northern Chu in the future, and she must not be careless.

"Still no, that person still has to see you before he is willing to cooperate with us, but I have already fought for ten days, but now, five days have passed. Leng Zhen sighed.

In this matter, he has done his best, but that person is very shrewd, and he knows at a glance that there is another person behind him, no matter what, he refuses to believe it, and also says that unless he sees An Ran, there is no need to talk about cooperation. Although he had already agreed with the other party, An Ran would meet him in ten days.

But because Nan Lingye searched for = An Ran's whereabouts, she couldn't show up, and now she can only drag it out like this, and it's useless to be anxious.

Hearing this, An Ran was silent, and after a long time, she spoke: "In this way, we only have five days now. ”

As if muttering to herself, An Ran's thoughts drifted a little far.

"Does the eldest lady have any plans?" Leng Zhen looked at An Ran, it seemed that she had a plan.

Sure enough, soon, An Ran looked at Leng Zhen, looked at him with firm phoenix eyes, and said, "I can only break the cauldron and sink the boat." ”

"How do you break the boat?" Leng Zhen was a little puzzled.

"Leng Shu, these days, you continue to observe the movements in the city, if Nan Lingye really gives up searching my whereabouts, then it is best, if not, within five days, you still have to come up, and also, bring all the things I want to men's clothes and disguises. An Ran said word by word.

Leng Zhen pondered An Ran's meaning, and finally understood why she said that she was going to break the boat.

It turned out that An Ran planned that five days later, no matter whether Nan Lingye was searching her whereabouts or not, she would start to show people in men's clothes and start to handle the salt transportation, but in this way, she would risk being recognized by Nan Lingye.

"Miss, is there really no other way?" Leng Zhen asked, to be honest, he really didn't want An Ran to try such a method, if it succeeded, it would be fine, if it didn't succeed, then An Ran would be caught back by Nan Lingye again, and I am afraid that his life would be difficult to protect.

"Leng Shu, you should understand our current situation very well, how willing I am to try, it's just that I have no choice. An Ran said quietly.

If she still had a choice, even a little hope, she wouldn't joke with her life.

God knows how strong her desire to live is.

Knowing that what An Ran said was also true, Leng Zhen didn't say anything more, but sighed helplessly: "In the next few days, I will investigate the situation carefully, and I will inform you when the time comes." ”

"There's Lao Lengshu worried. An Ran said.

After Leng Zhen left, An Ran and Xiaobai stayed in the cave, she stroked Xiaobai's hair, it was very soft and comfortable, and sighed silently, her eyes were a little red, she blinked her sour eyes, she showed her usual cold expression.
