C75 (2/2)

Liu Ruyan frowned. Even though she had known about it from a long time ago, she still felt troubled when she heard it.

Then, he looked at Lin Xiaode, who quickly bowed and replied: ”This subordinate has already investigated over at Anyang Mansion Court, and obtained some unexpected rewards.”

”General Liu is in the Anyang Mansion, and indeed, he is staying in the magistrate court. That magistrate is especially kind to the general, however, the general seems to have been assassinated in the magistrate court.”

Liu Ruyan's hand that was holding the teacup paused, and then she raised her spirits, ”What did you say?”

At first, it was just a little bit shocking. Although it was no longer a secret that Liu Yuanzhan had gone to the border to escort the King Luo, he was still slightly surprised that he was ambushed inside the Anyang Mansion.

”How do you know?” Liu Ruyan tightened her fingers, guessing if the man had already made her move. She forced herself to calm down. She couldn't let her guard down at this moment.

If that was truly the case, then it was hard to say how Liu Yuanzhan's current situation would be.

Liu Ruyan was even more worried.

Lin Xiaode hesitated for a moment, then said: ”This subordinate saw Luo Li, who was still in the mansion, General Liu's deputy general.”

”When your subordinate snuck into the yamen, I coincidentally bumped into Vice General Luo. It seems that General Luo's injuries weren't light; it seems to be precisely because of this that he remained in the yamen to recuperate.”

”Your subordinate has already talked to Vice General Luo. That's also why I know some things about the general.”

Luo Li!

Liu Ruyan stood up abruptly and held her hands tightly inside her sleeves.

”Did you tell Luo Li about me leaving the capital, or did you mention me in your words?” Liu Ruyan was very nervous.

This Luo Li, she had actually forgotten about this person, this spy who had always been by his father's side!

How could she forget, this Luo Li was a great helper to Lu Mingyu at that time.

Back then when his General's Mansion were surrounded, Lu Mingyu had been the one to pick on him. Luo Li was right by Lu Mingyu's side, and he was the first one to make a move.

In the past, Luo Li did not show any mercy to people of General's Mansion. He was like a Yama from the Underworld, slaughtering someone from the General's Mansion, how could he still be a loyal and considerate deputy general who seemed to be by his father's side!

Of course Liu Ruyan was nervous, such a person was terrifying!

Lin Xiaode was stunned for a moment at first, but was immediately frightened by Liu Ruyan's astounded tone. Her right foot pushed back for a while, and then she hurriedly cupped her fists and said: ”Don't worry miss, this subordinate knows the importance of the matter, and never revealed a single word about it to Vice General Luo.”

Liu Ruyan heaved a sigh of relief, staggered a few steps back and fell on the chair.

Zhuang Lu Sheng and Lin Xiaode looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. He thought that Liu Ruyan was worried that the matter of him leaving the capital on her own would be exposed, ”Lady …”

Just as the two of them were about to ask something, Liu Ruyan raised her hand and shook her head: ”I'm fine.”

But after a while, Liu Ruyan suddenly thought of something.

Lin Xiaode and Zhuang Luusheng had just been recalled back because of that storyteller. In other words, the news that Lin Xiaode had just received from the Residence of Ye was not long ago.

If Luo Li was still Lu Mingyu's hidden ace in the hole, then Liu Ruyan would be in grave danger right now. When Lin Xiaode returned, he must have exposed her whereabouts!
