Chapter 207: The Trap
After saying goodbye to the woman, Lian Yan continued to walk in the direction of the imperial capital.
It's just that unlike usual, Lian Yan felt that someone was following him all the time, and when he looked back, the person hid behind the tree with a "sigh".
Suspecting that the robbers had just returned and wanted to retaliate against him, Lotus Death clenched the dagger in his hand and prepared to quietly go over to subdue them.
When he walked to the tree, he saw that the woman just now stood up and said to him, "Childe, it's me."
When Lian Yan saw her, he hurriedly put the hand holding the dagger behind his back, looked at her with a surprised expression, and asked, "Why are you here?"
Could it be that she followed her all the way? Lian Yan was suspicious of her, wondering if she had evil intentions towards her and wanted to be ungrateful.
The woman saw the doubts in his eyes about herself, and immediately followed his purpose out of the tray: "It's such a son, the little woman just saw that you were alone, and the direction I went home was also this, so I wanted to walk with you." She said timidly.
She had just experienced such a terrible thing, and she must not dare to go alone. Lotus blamed herself for not thinking it through, and let go of her suspicions.
"I'm sorry, your home is also in the imperial capital, so we're still quite lucky." He laughed, relieving the embarrassment of their atmosphere just now.
Then they continued to walk side by side together, but in the place where the lotus could not see, the woman showed a sly smile, as if it were all a conspiracy.
Before arriving in the imperial capital, the sky was dark, and looking at the sky, Lian Yan thought of staying with the woman in an inn on the outskirts of the city.
"Little two, two rooms." Lian Yan said to Xiao Er, gave a deposit, and Xiao Er led them up to the second floor.
Lian Yan originally wanted to take advantage of this time to rest, but there was a knock on the door.
He was puzzled, thinking of the black shop he had encountered with Ji Ketian before, so he immediately became vigilant, took out a dagger and held it in his hand, and slowly walked to the door.
But as soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by the gentle face of the woman who was walking with him, and he slackened at once, and slipped the dagger back into his sleeve.
He pretended to be casual and said to her, "What's the matter, girl? But what's the matter? ”
The woman raised the food in front of him, her face flushed slightly, and said, "I saw that you didn't eat dinner, so I specially asked the kitchen to prepare it for you."
Lian Yan looked at the food she was holding in her hand, it was full of color and fragrance, and felt that this was also her intention to prepare with her heart, so she accepted it.
"Thank you, girl." Lian Yan accepted the meal, but did not intend to invite the woman into the room, and closed the door with a smile.
The woman outside the door wanted to follow him into the room with the food, but she didn't expect him to be so vigilant and close the door directly.
Across the door, the woman's expression changed, she was extremely annoyed, and she stamped her feet angrily and left.
Lian Yan returned to the table with the food, looking at the delicious food, but he had no appetite at all, he put the food on the table, and suddenly smelled a smell of incense.
"What is this?" Lian Yan took a closer look and sniffed it, and there was a smell other than the food wafting from the food, and he carefully identified it, and it turned out to be *.
He thought of the woman he saved, and he could guess her trick, and the corners of his mouth hooked, but he didn't expect that he had such wolf ambitions to save people.
Then he heard a noise outside the door, guessed that it might be the woman, and found a place to hide in the room.
After a while, there was a sound of breaking down the door, and then a man's voice came: "Huh? What about people! The voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember anything.
The people who broke in looked at the food on the table and could guess that Lian Yan had seen through their plan.
Looking around, there was no sign of the doors and windows being opened, and the man said, "He must still be here, search carefully!"
He gave the order, and the sparse clamshell sound entered Lian Yan's ears, and he became vigilant, knowing that he had nowhere to escape, so he could only fight to the death. He clenched his dagger tightly, intending to fight them.
The footsteps of those people slowly approached, and Lian Yan's heart was horizontal, and he appeared in the eyes of everyone with a dagger, and he looked carefully at the people, who were the robbers he had encountered during the day.
He frowned, feeling that something was wrong: "How could it be you?" Then, he sorted out the whole thing again, and finally came to a conclusion: from the heroic rescue of the beauty during the day, he lived in only one conspiracy.
His brow loosened, and he sneered at the realization of their original plan.
"You've really worked hard to lure me in." He sneered, feeling that he was really stupid and had fallen into their trap.
When the robbers saw that he had learned the truth, they swung their knives and started a fight with Lotus Death, the fight during the day was not their true level, and Lotus Death was injured this time, the old wound did not heal, and the new wound was added.
Knowing that her body could no longer fight, Lian Yan jumped out of the window and took the opportunity to escape.
Xiao Jin has been looking for Ji Ketian for the past few days, monitoring Xiao Yi while looking for her in the city, but there has been no news in the past few days.
And at this moment, the maid beside Ji Ketian hurriedly ran in front of him and said, "Lord Wang, it's not good, the lotus is gone!"
Lian Yan has been missing for a day and a night, and the maid has been waiting for news from him, but in the end she can't see it, so she is in a hurry to find Xiao Jin to say a way.
When Xiao Jin heard this, he frowned and wondered, "How can this be?"
The maid went out of the tray where he was going to find a dumping matter, and within a few days, they were missing a master and a servant in the Jin Palace.
Hearing the news, Xiao Jin remembered what he said to himself that day, and blamed him for acting impulsively, but now the good people are gone.
Now Xiao Jin is worried about whether it was when Lian Yan went to find Ji Ke Tilt, he was discovered by Xiao Yi's people and had already encountered an accident.
He was secretly anxious, and he couldn't help but have a headache.
However, Xiao Yi's side, when he heard that there was no sound in the dark room, he thought that the two people in the dark room had hung up according to his own ideas.
"Heh, this king didn't do much and you died, and I blame you for your thin life and met this king." Facing the stone door of the dark room, Xiao Yi said these words proudly.
Now that Ji Ketian has died inside, Xiao Yat has the opportunity to regain control of the throne and ascend the throne with the support of his own party in the court.
And now Emperor Wei's body has not been buried because he said that he wanted to investigate the case, and it has been delayed. At present, he wants to hold a funeral for Emperor Wei, and then he will ascend the throne justifiably.
