A few sparrows chirped weakly, and the sound made Tang Yingying feel distressed: "Don't talk yet, I'll bandage you."

Just by looking at the appearance of a few sparrows covered in blood, you can know that the other party wants to kill these sparrows. Besides, I'm afraid there are more sparrows who died, and these few just escaped to tell her what someone was doing.

By the time Tang Yingying bandaged a few sparrows, a few sparrows had already fallen asleep weakly.

She made a temporary, soft nest for a few sparrows, so that they could recuperate comfortably in it, and then she ordered the secret guard to investigate.

"Go and see if someone is hunting sparrows or something. If there are really people hunting, following these people may lead to unexpected gains."

Judging from the situation of these sparrows, someone is specifically hunting these sparrows, which means that someone did it on purpose.

Was her secret discovered? Who will be aware of it?

If this is the case, she should be careful in the future, so that no one can detect the abnormality again, otherwise it will bring trouble to her.

The Dark Guard took the order and retreated to do this.

"Probably, the sparrows in the suburbs will be hunted." Mo Chen, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly said this.

Tang Yingying squinted at him, she knew that Mo Chen had doubts about her ability, but there was no conclusive evidence. This time, I'm afraid he has already determined something.

"I'll have to check the suburbs."

Mo Chen saw her vigilance and precaution, and felt quite uncomfortable, but he could also understand the reason why she did this. In other words, after he has such a secret, he will also try his best to hide it.

"You don't believe me so much?"

Tang Yingying retracted her eyes and said lightly, "I can't talk about believing it or not. The regent knows better than I am that human nature is terrible and hypocritical. Whoever calls you a brother one second can kill you for profit the next."

Mo Chen was even more uncomfortable, he tapped Tang Yingying's head: "In this regard, even if you believe me, I will not do anything harmful to you."

Tang Yingying smiled slightly: "Why do you believe it. Just as the Lord Regent is suspicious of anyone, I can't trust anyone completely."

Mo Chen's brows furrowed, and his handsome face sank: "Listen to what you mean, you have never fully believed me?"

Tang Yingying sat in the chair, leaning back with her legs folded, and said with a slight sarcasm: "Then I dare to ask the regent, have you completely believed me?"

Seeing Mo Chen's choking, she spread her hands: "Look, you didn't fully believe me, but you want me to believe you completely, isn't it hypocritical?"

I can't tell if it's uncomfortable or unhappy, but she understands that the reality is like this, and she and Mo Chen are destined not to trust it completely.

As an assistant to the emperor, it is impossible for him to trust one person completely. And she has seen too much human nature, and she can't fully trust a person.

How can they talk about being together like this? Even if they are together, they will be separated again due to the issue of distrust.

Mo Chen pressed his jumping eyebrows and sighed, "I don't know if I fully believe in you. Just now you asked like that, my mind was so mixed for a while that I couldn't answer you."

Tang Yingying didn't need his answer: "Your attitude already says a lot. Mo Chen, you and I can't be husband and wife......

"It's done!" Mo Chen cut off her words and said firmly.

When Tang Yingying heard this, she didn't want to continue the topic: "It's up to you. I have something to do, please take care of it."

"Tang Yingying!" Mo Chen called out to her and asked, "Why don't you give me a chance?"

Tang Yingying looked at him sideways and said calmly, "Because I am very sensible, because I know what kind of life I want, because I will not rely on anyone."

Mo Chen was silent for a moment, and said, "I want to be your supporter, not your support. And what you feared will not happen again."

Tang Yingying shook her head slowly, still looking plain and waveless: "Mo Chen, you still don't understand. I don't want to do that again, I can do it at any time

I can be doubted by you, questioned by you, and tied to you for a long time."

"To put it mildly, I have money, beauty and a lot of free time, isn't it good for me to raise a few male pets? Why bother tying up with you?"

Hearing the word male pet, the chill around Mo Chen's body became a little heavier, and he grinded his teeth: "If you dare to raise a male pet, see how I clean you up."

Tang Yingying smiled faintly: "You see, your focus is always different from mine. Mo Chen, you can't give me the life I want, so why bother me."

"Because I am devoted to you and want to live a lifetime with you." Mo Chen suddenly confessed.

Tang Yingying's heart jumped, overflowing with sweetness and joy, but was suppressed by calmness: "So what? The first time you confessed, I told you that because you are devoted to me, it doesn't mean that I have to be with you."

Mo Chen was a little annoyed by her excessive sanity and calmness, and he exhaled, "Can't you not be so rational? Why do you have so much analysis of emotional matters?"

Tang Yingying smiled, and smiled mockingly: "Listen to what you say, this is the common problem of your men. On the one hand, I want our women to be beautiful like flowers and attach ourselves to you, and on the other hand, I want our women to be independent and be different women."

"If it's not as good as you men, I'll say how we women are."

Mo Chen's brows furrowed into a Sichuan character, and he was a little displeased: "I have never said this, and I have never thought about it like this, you don't use those men to represent me."

Tang Yingying swallowed all kinds of uncomfortable feelings in her heart: "Then you dare to say, don't you think that I obediently agreed to get back together with you, and you also think that I want to maintain my true nature?"

Mo Chen opened his mouth to refute, but he couldn't say anything for some reason, did he think so?

Tang Yingying waved her hand tiredly: "That's it."

She was tired.

Mo Chen grabbed her, "What do you mean by this?"

Tang Yingying looked at him for a while, then shook off his hand: "What do you think these words mean, that's what they mean." I'm a little tired, so please take care of yourself the regent."

She lifted her feet and went into the back room.

Mo Chen wanted to catch up, but stopped again. He knew that catching up at this joint would only aggravate the contradiction between him and Tang Yingying, but this matter had to be resolved.

He had to think about how to solve it.

If this matter is not resolved well, he and Tang Yingying will really come to an end.

This is the last thing he wants to see.

Tang Yingying didn't sleep for a while, and was woken up by Mo Chen, saying that the matter of solving the secret passage had been arranged.

"I thought, you're going to take a look." Mo Chen saw that she was still tired between her eyebrows and eyes, and she was very distressed, what was the incident that bothered her just now.

Tang Yingying pressed her slightly aching temple and mumbled. I haven't been asleep just now, and my mind is full of things related to Mo Chen, this person seems to be a spell.

"Wait a little longer and sleep in the carriage?" Mo Chen tied her cloak.

Tang Yingying waved her hand and said no, she couldn't sleep well, it was better not to sleep.

When the two of them came to the mansion, Tang Yingying saw that the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses Division surrounded the place, and even the entire street was controlled.

"Didn't catch anyone?" She spoke in a firm tone.

Mo Chen walked in side by side with her, keeping an eye on her condition, "When the dark guard came, the building was already empty. It is estimated that Tang Rou escaped in advance in order to avoid being caught."

Tang Yingying also thought so, and sneered: "Tang Rou is the most life-sparing, and he is a power-loving person. Now that she has finally gained some power, how can she allow herself to be arrested."

She looked at the courtyard, which was a very ordinary two-entry courtyard, and the decoration was no different. If it weren't for Honglian's explanation, it would be hard to imagine that this mansion hides so many secrets.

Mo Chen nodded, "There are a lot of things and traces left here. In these aspects, Tang Rou is still very poor."

Tang Yingying said indifferently: "It's not that she is bad, it's that everything she has been arranged and prepared since she was a child, and she doesn't need to bother. She has developed the habit that she will not pay attention to it even if she falls into this step

That's why we have a chance."

"Habits are terrible."

Mo Chen pursed his thin lips, "Are you reminding me of something?"

Tang Yingying didn't understand why he thought of this: "I'm discussing this, how can I remind you of anything? Please don't think too much about it, the Lord Regent is prone to brain problems."

Mo Chen sighed in his heart, since the previous conversation, there had been some problems between him and Tang Yingying, and their relationship had changed a little.

"It's that I'm thinking too much." He knew that this was not the place to talk about things, so he didn't continue the conversation.

Tang Yingying focused on this mansion and didn't think about the matter between her and Mo Chen.

The two came to a relatively secluded compound.

The courtyard looks uninhabited all year round, but it is clean, and there is not even a trace of dust, only the furniture is very old.

The bed in the room had been removed, revealing a bronze door on the floor.

The bronze door has a handle.

Mo Chen tugged the handle.

With a slightly muffled sound, the bronze door slowly opened, bringing a not-so-pleasant smell for a while.

Tang Yingying fanned under her nose with her hand, took the torch handed by the secret guard, and leaned over to take a look: "It looks like a staircase, and there is no end in sight for the time being."

"Does the Lord Regent want to check this secret passage, or do it directly?"

Mo Chen patted the dust on his hands: "Just do it." The following situation is complicated, and it is already a surprise. If you look it up, you can't be sure that nothing will go wrong."

Tang Yingying also thought like this: "Then what are you going to do?"

Then, she saw with her own eyes that the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses poured buckets of oil from the mouth of the secret passage, and she already understood Mo Chen's intentions.

Although I don't know how many secret passages there are, I may not be able to burn all of them. But with this method, you can burn a lot of people.

Then I will be able to learn more from these people.

Tang Yingying was pulled by Mo Chen to stand in a safe place not far away, and she frowned: "Just filling the oil will take a long time, right?"
