Lin Ruo told Li Yan all his considerations the next day, and sure enough, he got the other party's approval. After that, the two also tacitly agreed on the same coping strategy: to respond to all changes with the same.

Since the momentum of the Lin family's re-emergence remains unchanged, waiting for the mastermind behind the sneaking to be revealed first.

After agreeing on this matter, there is another important matter: "The secret letter to Junyang has been sent, let him be careful." Meng Zhuo's people have been surrounding Meng Jiu for more than half a month, and it should be a result. If nothing else, Meng Jiu becomes a prisoner and is executed by Meng Zhuo, then the evacuated outposts will return one after another with the people who 'fled';

If there is an accident and Meng Bin fights against the odds and turns things around, then those who have already withdrawn will hardly be able to risk going back to die.

Lin Ruo nodded, and then asked in a low voice, "Who do you think will win in the end?" ”

Li Yan pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "Meng Zhuo's name is right, and he has an army in hand, and the difference in strength between the two is so great, it stands to reason that Meng Zhuo's chances of winning will be greater." But his opponent is Meng Jiu, it's hard to say. Why, listening to what you mean, do you think the winner will be Meng Jiu? ”

"Well," Lin Ruo replied lightly, his expression solemn, "The golden cicada is out of its shell, and the bottom of the kettle is drawn." ”

"What do you mean......"

"He shouldn't have been trapped in Changyong, but he had already taken the opportunity to blend into the palace in the capital, or, already in the palace."

Li Yan frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Black Armor Guard? ”

Lin Ruo nodded solemnly: "Although the Black Armor Guard needs to be at the disposal of the person who holds the Molin Order, but there are three Molin Orders in total, and with Meng Jiugong's person, he must have considered how to deal with it if the token falls into the hands of the enemy." Moreover, this secret should only be known to Meng Jiugong, and he didn't tell Meng Jiu until soon after he realized his fate—it should have been before Meng Bin sent to Donglu. That's why I mentioned in my letter to Meng Zhuo that he must deceive the Molin Order in Meng Jiugong's hand, and give him my Molin Order as a favor. ”

"That's right, Meng Jiu was still able to let half of the black-armored guards obey him. It proves that your inference is not wrong, and Meng Zhuo should not have discovered the key secret from Meng Jiugong......" Li Yan's face was also solemn, "You still know Meng Jiu." ”

Lin Ruo smiled wryly: "If you think about how much effort I put into it to let Lao Qi stay in the Lin Mansion willingly, you can estimate Meng Jiu's personality and means." ”

Li Yan nodded, and commented pertinently: "I know that you have remembered the friendship with him for many years, if it weren't for the fact that he killed Uncle Lin and Shaoqing, you wouldn't have gone so far." Although you say that you will leave his life to God, you still leave him with a way to live. ”

Lin Ruo was silent and noncommittal.

Li Yan knew her too well, and there was no need to hide it in front of him.

She did still have a glimmer of benevolence, but she understood that as long as Meng Jiu believed that "Lin Ruo" was dead, and he was also an accomplice, she should not hurt everyone she cared about, including Murong Chong.

Although somewhat idealistic, the possibilities are not small.

The two chatted about some other things in a scattered manner, and finally before leaving, Li Yan also asked Lin Ruo something that she had been asked by many people these days—about her and Murong Chong.

Li Yan knew Lin Ruo better than others, and knew the reason why Lin Ruo was in danger and desperate. Everything is to be able to be with Murong Chong, but now, the time has not come. Therefore, the questions he asked were different from those of Lin Qi, Qu Xiaoxiang, Leng Shu and others, not to ask her why she still didn't recognize Murong Chong and didn't tell Murong Chong that she was still alive, but:

"On the ninth day of the first lunar month, do I want to bring you wine?"

Lin Ruo looked hesitant for a long time, and finally replied softly: "...... Good. ”

On the ninth day of June, Murong Chong's birthday. It was night, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, Leng Shu carried the amber light specially prepared by Li Yan in one hand, and took Lin Ruo to jump up to the rockery in the hidden garden, placed the people and wine, and then waited silently aside.

Since the injury, Lin Ruo has not drunk a drop of alcohol. Now there is finally a chance and an excuse for her to have a good drink. If it weren't for the fear of being seen, Lin Ruo actually wanted to go up to the roof, set up a wooden board on the main ridge as a small table, and drink wine.

It's a pity that everyone knows that the young lady of the Lin family and Princess Rong Lin Ruo are dead, and she is hiding in this corner, and only a few cronies are waiting for her, so she can't be found out and causes trouble.

Before leaving the cabinet, the person who accompanied her to drink on the roof was Su Muyu; After getting married, the person who pushed the cup on the spine with her and drank all night was Murong Chong. Now, there is only one guard Leng Shu who has protected her for six years, and he is just watching from the sidelines and not drinking with her.

"Ashu, come and have a drink with me."

Lin Ruo beckoned to Leng Shu, but it was not a cup that drank, but a bowl-sea bowl, and there was only one. Leng Shu looked at her smiling face, didn't say anything, but picked up one of the jars, looked up with a cold face, and took a sip with his head up.

"How does it taste?"

“…… Good! ”

Lin Ruo smiled, raised his head and drank the wine in the sea bowl, then handed the bowl over, glanced sideways at his right arm, which was unable to move, and motioned for Leng Shu to help pour the wine.

Li Yan sent five altars of amber light, Leng Shu hugged one altar, two altars were placed beside him, and two altars were under the rockery. He sat silently at a distance of Lin Ruo's arm's length, without persuading him, and when Lin Ruoman finished drinking and handed over the bowl, he picked up the wine jar beside him and poured wine for her; When she raised her head to drink, he also silently hugged the jar and took a sip.

Mellow and lingering wine, across the throat, not strong, not spicy, but long aftertaste, just like his loyal employer Lin Ruo, always in front of people with just the right but indifferent and alienated smile, gentle, dignified, with a very deep city, but rarely let people notice, only really get along for a long time, will be discovered.

"Do you know why I like amber light the most?" Lin Ruo held the wine bowl, squinted at the wine halo rippling in the bowl, and didn't seem to have any intention of waiting for Leng Shu's answer, and then said to himself, "One life is glazed, and three lives are amber." In the past life, this life, and the next life, people who are destined for all three lives can sit together and taste this rare wine! ”

Leng Shu looked at the wine jar in his arms, the wine that was sparkling and shining under the moonlight, his angular facial features gradually softened, and he looked at Lin Ruo silently. If he drank this wine, he would be able to meet her again in the next life, even if he still stayed by her side like this, even if he was drunk to death in this wine, he would be willing!

But Lin Ruo didn't realize it, his eyes turned around, and finally settled in one direction, and sneered: "That's the direction of King Rong's Mansion, right?" Rongwangfu, Shaoqing...... When I got married, I promised him that I would trust each other and not lie. Unfortunately, I lied to him more than once. Do you know what the biggest lie I told him was? ”

Leng Shu didn't answer, still looking at Lin Ruo silently, the answer was undoubted, she was still alive in front of her.

Lin Ruo smiled, but the smile was full of sadness: "It's not that I didn't tell him that I'm still alive, but ...... I convinced him that I didn't love him that much......"

Tears appeared in the corners of his eyes, but those clear eyes still had a smile: "I made him think that his position in my heart was always inferior to that of the Lin family...... And I thought, I thought so......"
