Wang Yanzhou looked at Chen Xin and Liang Shuyi and nodded helplessly. As for Hei Ya, let him go. There were some things he wanted to ask him in private: "Okay, okay, let's go."
As the three carriages from Qingliang Valley slowly drove out of the city gate, the people from Huayue Tower, who had been observing secretly, returned to the abandoned house outside the city to report to Yue Sheng: "Miss, Miss Tang and the others have left."
After Huaping gently wiped the medicine stains from the corners of Yue Sheng's mouth, Yue Sheng coldly ordered: "Since you're leaving, let Yan Shaoqing go."
The visitor said that the Yan family is no longer what it used to be. What if Yan Shaoqing refuses to leave? "What if he doesn't want to leave?"
After Yue Sheng coughed a few times, Huaping helped her calm down while making arrangements: "Just drug him tonight and leave him outside the city. When the city gates open tomorrow morning, someone will naturally find him."
"yes."
That night, Wang Yanzhou set out a little late because he took into consideration that Tang Chen liked to stay in bed. As a result, when it was getting dark, the group was nowhere to be found and had no choice but to set up tent next to the official road.
After making sure that the others had rested, Wang Yanzhou called Hei Ya to a pine forest some distance away from the camp.
Seeing that Wang Yanzhou seemed to be coming with ill intentions, Hei Ya prepared hidden weapons when he came out, but after thinking about it, he put all the weapons on his body that could hurt people back into the tent: "It's so late, is there something wrong with calling me out?"
Without waiting for Hei Ya to react, Wang Yanzhou placed his cold iron black fan directly on his neck. With just a slight force, Hei Ya would probably be covered in blood tonight. "Who are you, and what is your purpose in approaching Tang Chen?"
The corners of Hei Ya's mouth curled up slightly. Sure enough, it was just as he thought. Since Wang Yanzhou was worried about Tang Chen, he would definitely not do anything to him today: "Didn't she tell you?"
Wang Yanzhou snorted coldly and said, "She is a simple person. I'm afraid she didn't even realize she was deceived."
Black Crow gently moved the cold blade that Wang Yanzhou had placed on his neck and said, "Don't worry. Besides, with Valley Master Wang's status and abilities, if I ever do something bad, I'm sure I won't be able to escape his clutches."
"It's good that you know," Wang Yanzhou said, and then he put the folding fan back on his waist. When he was about to reach the camp, Wang Yanzhou warned Hei Ya: "Shu Yang's people have been following you for a long time, don't let those little tails cause trouble for Tang Chen."
After Wang Yanzhou said this, Hei Ya didn't say anything. He just quickly returned to the tent, took something, and then came out and disappeared into the pine forest.
Coincidentally, Wang Yanzhou strolled back just as Black Crow left. This time, he saw Tang Chen, awake late at night, wandering outside with disheveled hair. Those who didn't know better might have thought he was possessed by a demon. Liang Shuyi, on the other hand, followed quietly behind him, even covering her mouth tightly when she yawned, simply trying to eliminate any possible dangers from Tang Chen's path.
Wang Yanzhou noticed that the two men were behaving strangely, so he went up to Liang Shuyi and asked, "What's wrong?"
Liang Shuyi quickly signaled Wang Yanzhou to be quiet and explained in a low voice: "She is sleepwalking. Hush, be quiet, don't scare her."
Wang Yanzhou remembered that Tang Chen had mentioned it before. Normally, she would sleep through the night, but if she had too many things on her mind, she would sleepwalk and talk in her sleep. Sometimes, even the sound of dripping water could make her restless and restless. She said, what is this, neurasthenia?
"Did she encounter any troubles during the days I was away?"
Liang Shuyi paid close attention to Tang Chen's every move and replied, "No, why do you ask?"
Wang Yanzhou couldn't bear to see Liang Shuyi yawning and taking care of Tang Chen, so he said, "You go back to sleep first. I'll carry her back later."
"OK."
Liang Shuyi entered the small tent he and Tang Chen shared. After that, Wang Yanzhou pressed Tang Chen's sleeping point, packed up the things, carried them on his shoulders, and brought them back to his own tent.
Looking at Tang Chen, who was sleeping soundly on the straw mat with her hands and feet restless, Wang Yanzhou lay down carefully beside her with a complicated expression: "I don't know if I'm thinking too much, but I always feel a little uncomfortable when I can't see you."
...It is easy to imagine the psychological trauma Tang Chen suffered when he woke up, closed his eyes and planned to call Liang Shuyi, but when he opened his eyes, he found that the person he had caught was Wang Yanzhou.
"Liang, Shu, Yi!"
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
When Liang Shuyi heard someone calling her, she hurried out of the tent. As soon as she came out, she saw Tang Chen rushing towards her like a madman.
"Why didn't you stop me when I was sleepwalking?"
Liang Shuyi glanced at Wang Yanzhou, who was tidying up his clothes behind Tang Chen, and ran behind Chen Xin with a smile: "...Is it my fault?"
"snort!"
"puff!"
Unlike Tang Chen, who woke up with a flushed face and nervous excitement, Yan Shaoqing was woken up this morning by being doused with cold water. When he woke up, he was no longer in Yue Sheng's abandoned ancestral hall, but was tied to an execution stake.
Seeing Yan Shaoqing regain consciousness, the man who had poured water on him said to the guard standing outside the prison door, "Go and tell the master that the prisoner has woken up."
"yes!"
Yan Shaoqing stared blankly at the devastation around him. In the past, he'd only ever sent others here, never having imagined he'd one day become one of their "guests." Ever since he'd learned of the Yan family's past actions, he'd stopped caring whether he lived or died. Now, he just hoped his father wouldn't make any irreparable mistakes.
A moment later, a familiar figure appeared in front of Yan Shaoqing. Seeing Yan Shaoqing in such a state of disarray, Lin Feng's eyes remained calm, as if he had expected this to happen. His words were devoid of any emotion, as if he and the person before him were just strangers: "Young Master Yan, long time no see."
The moment Yan Shaoqing saw Lin Feng, he suddenly had a bad feeling for some reason: "Why is it you..."
Lin Feng said, "I am currently handling the Yan family's affairs. I hope Young Master Yan can answer my questions truthfully."
Yan Shaoqing looked at him for a moment before finally speaking. He explained to him everything that had happened on the day of the fire at the General's Mansion, and also explained the tragic massacre of the Ouyang family many years ago.
After Lin Feng had someone record what Yan Shaoqing said, he dismissed everyone and said, "You go down first."
Lin Feng stepped forward and whispered, "His Majesty has a secret order to inquire about the identity of the woman in red who appeared at the fire at the General's Mansion."
