The night was already deep. In the pavilions and pavilions near and far of Mengyunxuan, there were faint starry candles swaying uncertainly, like a dream.

In the bedroom, after some clouds and rain, Li Ruiyun fell asleep with a satisfied smile. Only Ding Mengxuan was left lying on the brocade couch gloomy, crying silently.

Thinking that Li Ruiyun was almost perverted and abused her, but she was powerless to resist, she could only close her eyes and be forced to accept this storm-like raging.

At that moment, she felt as if her soul had been pulled away, and she no longer felt heartache, no shame, only endless numbness and sorrow that wiped her out.

She supported her body, which was still aching, and slowly got up, picked up the scattered clothes on the ground, and put them on.

At this time, Li Ruiyun, who was on the brocade, turned over, and let out a muffled murmur in his sleep: "Mengxuan......"

She froze in place for a moment before she answered softly, and reluctantly lay back beside him.

Leaning back against him, countless thoughts flashed in his heart, but he had no clue, and his mind was messy.

The sound of frogs chirping outside the window was not at all pleasant to her ears, but it was very noisy; Her heart also seemed to be hanging in the air, and she couldn't be at ease.

Thinking, sleepiness, exhaustion, and drunkenness, she fell asleep unconsciously.

I don't know how long she slept, but she was suddenly awakened by a strange sound.

She felt her heart pounding and unconsciously bit her lip. She shrunk and didn't move, just tilting her ears to listen carefully to what was going on outside.

It was the sound of the lattice being knocked on, and then a deep voice outside the window said, "Helper, are you sleeping?" ”

Li Ruiyun replied in a low voice, then sat up quietly, turned to Ding Mengxuan and called softly: "Mengxuan, Mengxuan......"

Ding Mengxuan's eyes were closed quietly, his delicate body was motionless, and his narrow eyelashes were like a row of small fans, covering a faint shadow.

Her snort fluttered unhurriedly, and a slight snoring melted into the ambiguous air, accompanied by a characteristic sweet and fragrant taste.

Li Ruiyun called her twice, seeing that she was sleeping very deeply, very fragrant, and did not react at all, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, dressed neatly with her hands and feet, got off the ground silently, tiptoed to the door, and pushed the door away.

When the man outside the window saw him come out, he quietly gave him a look, and walked forward; Li Ruiyun also followed with light steps.

The hazy moonlight flickered in the clouds, casting a dappled shadow on the ground through the jagged trees.

There are mountains, stone walls, peach trees, and willow trees, each with its own color and shape, and under the strange shadow of the moon, it seems that they all contain a kind of secret that cannot be hidden.

Li Ruiyun and the man flew under their feet, and soon arrived in Meng Yunxuan's back garden and stopped.

The man in front turned around, bowed his hand slightly at Li Ruiyun and said, "Helper." ”

The dim moonlight combed the face of the person who came, and the eyes were deep and solemn. Three locks of long hair fluttered on his chest, with floating dust in his hand, and a sword on his shoulder, which more and more vividly brought out his fairy wind bones and chic and elegant aura.

It was the Heavenly Owl Elder White Feather Daoist.

Li Ruiyun nodded at him, which was regarded as a response; Then he asked, "Is the Dao Chief's injuries better?" ”

"I still need to recuperate for some time-" Bai Yu's face was gloomy, covered with a terrifying layer of frost, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Lingyun, this stinky boy, one day I will kill him!" ”

Li Ruiyun snorted lightly, with a light smile hooked at the corner of his mouth, as if self-deprecating and sarcastic, "It's been a few days, and there is still no whereabouts of Ling Yun?" ”

Bai Yu shook his head and said, "What a hell! This kid is also injured, and there are our eyeliner all over the place, where do you think he will hide? Why can't I even see a shadow for a few days? ”

As he spoke, his eyebrows were tangled, and he fell into deep thought.

"Okay, let's not talk about him yet." Li Ruiyun frowned slightly, and said a little irritably.

His deep eyes flashed, and he went straight to the point, "Dao Changshen came here in the middle of the night, so I think there is something important to tell me!" ”

"Exactly." Bai Yu took two steps forward and lowered his voice: "Just now, Commander Li came with the news, saying that our plan has basically succeeded, and our people have been arranged to go to the heavenly prison, and they are specially responsible for the food and living in the area where Lu Wenzheng is located. ”

"Really? That's great! ......" Li Ruiyun said with a gleam of fine eyes: "Lu Wenzheng's old man is stinky and hard, and he refuses to confess to murdering the prince alive or dead; Moreover, Zhao Fu, the king of Jinling, didn't know what to do, and did everything possible to maintain him.

"When we were at a loss, we finally saw the light of day. Tell them to calm down, wait for the opportunity, act carefully, and never make any mistakes. When the time comes, we will ......"

Speaking of this, he stopped, and his sharp eyes dyed the narrow phoenix eyes with a layer of cold murderous intent.

Bai Yu said: "What the helper said is right, as long as Lu Wenzheng dies, the prince's matter will be over; And most importantly, the death of this old man will clear one of our greatest obstacles, and the others will be able to do it; And our nationhood is just around the corner......"

Li Ruiyun nodded, and was about to say something more, but suddenly his face changed, and he shouted in a deep voice behind the rockery not far away: "Who is there?" Come out! ……”

Bai Yu also noticed the abnormal movement over there at this time, and couldn't help but sweep over with burning eyes.

——A few days ago, they took Ling Yun hostage to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department to seize the dragon and phoenix jade talisman, but Ling Yun detonated the gunpowder and wanted to die with them, at that time, Bai Yu was seriously injured, his skills were greatly reduced, and his hearing, vision, and movement were greatly affected, so until now his reaction is still a little sluggish.

Straight to the point. said that the two of them found someone behind the rockery, and they only felt a pang in their hearts, and thought to themselves: "This person heard their extremely secret conversations, if it is really spread, the consequences will be unimaginable; So no matter who this person is, he must not let go! ”

The two of them stared at that side, their eyes shining like arrows, glowing with the cold glow of a bloodthirsty madman, which was only terrifying.

The man hidden in the shadows knew that he could no longer hide, so he had to bite the bullet and slowly escape from behind the rockery.

"Mengxuan?" Li Ruiyun raised his eyes and couldn't help but be shocked, "Why are you?" ……”

Ding Mengxuan's whole body trembled, his face was like ashes, his breathing accelerated, and his dull eyes were full of discouragement and despair.

Li Ruiyun's eyes looked at her with a sharp and cold glin, but they dimmed in an instant.

He froze in place, his expression empty for a moment. Cold Wind Hunting, turning up the black clothes on his body, like a black bat with cold-blooded desire, wanting to devour the person in front of him.

After a long time, he pouted softly and said dumbly, "How long have you been here?" ”

Ding Mengxuan didn't speak. She clutched her chest tightly, the heart-rending pain that made her almost breathless. She couldn't seem to believe what was in front of her, and her delicate body swayed in a trance, almost falling to the ground.

Li Ruiyun said again: "Did you hear what I said to the Taoist Chief?" ”

Ding Mengxuan still didn't speak, as if he still hadn't reacted.

Li Ruiyun's inky cold eyes were filled with broken waves, and he said bitterly: "Alas! It turns out that you haven't been asleep all this time. Even if you weren't asleep, you shouldn't have secretly followed here—Mengxuan, why did you come along? ……”

Ding Mengxuan finally came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "I don't know why I came with you by the devil, if I don't come, I won't know about these despicable and dirty things between you, how good do you think!"

"Li Ruiyun, I really hope that I can live in a dream for the rest of my life, and I will live in a rare confusion for the rest of my life, and I don't know anything, but is this possible? Reality is reality after all, and all dreams will wake up one day......"

Li Ruiyun looked at her silently, sighed lightly, and unconsciously took two steps forward.

"Don't come here! Don't come here! ……”

Ding Mengxuan was terrified, retreated again and again, and said in a trembling voice: "If you take a step closer, I will die in front of you immediately!" ......" said the probe took out a short blade from his bosom and placed it across his chest.

Li Ruiyun had no choice but to stand only a few steps away from Ding Mengxuan, "Mengxuan, promise me, just act as if nothing happened today, no matter what you see or hear tonight, don't say it, okay?" ”

His voice was soft, very different from those cold and strange eyes, and it sounded even more chilling in the dark.

Before the words were finished, Bai Yu had already said sympathetically behind him: "Helper, what are you still talking about with this woman, do you still expect her to keep a secret for you, you are too naïve!" If she wants to die, let her die, save you from doing it yourself, and save a lot of unnecessary trouble. ”

Li Ruiyun's eyes were dark, like a ball of ink that could not be dissolved, "Dao Chief, do you know, Mengxuan is the only woman I love in this life, I really love her!" If it were someone else tonight, I would do what I would do, I wouldn't blink my eyes, but she, I really couldn't do it! ……”

"Li Ruiyun, you still have the face to say that you love me? I'm really going to be flattered! ”

Ding Mengxuan couldn't help but laugh bitterly. I don't know when it began, a little bit of disappointment gradually accumulated, turned into irreparable despair, until now it completely collapsed and exploded.

She stood there silently, without fear, without crying, but with a dry throat, tears sliding silently down her face, and a dead silence in her eyes.

"If you hadn't loved me so much, you probably wouldn't have deceived me into marrying you under the pretense of being the eldest prince of the Hou Yefu; You will not destroy my innocence by deceiving me of my virginity when I am grieved over your feigned death; Later, you won't make me pregnant, and you will provoke my relationship with Ling Yun with clever words, so that I will turn against him......

"Your so-called love for me is all piled up with false deception and your unscrupulous means - Li Ruiyun, thank you for your love, you have made my life a joke! ……”
