Wanhua Tower.

Madam Yan had just gone to bed when the maid knocked on her door: "Master, someone is looking for you."

"Go away, don't disturb my sleep."

Wanhua Tower does business at night and closes its doors to customers at dawn.

She is sleepy.

The maid added, "It's white tea for you."

Madam Yan paused, threw back the quilt and sat up: "I know, let him wait in the tea room."

"Yes, landlord."

The maid went.

Madam Yan propped up her sleepy head.

Sending tea is the lord's secret signal. Each type of tea represents a different task, among which white tea is the most urgent task.

Madam Yan went to the tea room.

A secret guard from the prime minister's residence wearing a bamboo hat was sitting on a chair waiting for her.

Lady Yan asked calmly, "What do you want, my lord?"

The secret guard said, "The Lord asked you to go to the Governor's Mansion and meet Lu Yuan at any cost. You must see him alive or dead."

Madam Yan frowned deeply.

Half an hour later, the carriage from Wanhua Tower arrived at the Governor's Mansion.

The maid jumped off the carriage and said to the boy at the door, "Please tell Madam Lu that my master is here to visit."

The servant said rudely, "Young Madam has ordered that the Governor's Mansion will not receive any guests today."

The maid said, "My host is a friend of the Grand Commander and Madam Lu."

Slave: “No!”

"Whose friend?"

Liu Qingyun's cold voice came from the mansion.

The servant turned around and bowed: "Madam, this is Lady Yan, the owner of Wanhua Tower."

The maid said to the boy, "So you know my wife?"

Liu Qingyun turned to look at Lady Yan in the carriage, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes: "Are you the Lady Yan who worked for that bastard?"

This was the first time that Madam Yan met Liu Qingyun. She was deeply shocked by her beauty, but now was not the time to comment on someone's appearance.

"I……"

Just as she was about to speak, Liu Qingyun raised his sword and slashed at her.

The sword used up all its strength, and Lady Yan hurriedly grabbed the coachman and swung him to the side.

There was a loud bang, and the carriage was split in half.

The driver turned pale with fright.

Madam Yan's expression was slightly solemn: "Madam Lu, what do you mean?"

What happened to Lu Yuan?

Why did his mother start killing people when she saw him?

Liu Qingyun attacked with one sword after another, but Madam Yan didn't want to fight with her and avoided her moves.

The more you avoid it, the more difficult it becomes.

I didn’t expect Liu Qingyun’s martial arts skills to be so high.

When Liu Qingyun swung his sword again, Madam Yan was unable to dodge and shot out a silver needle.

Liu Qingyun deflected the silver needle with one sword!

"mother!"

Meng Qianqian left the mansion, walked down the steps, and blocked Liu Qingyun's sword. "Go into the mansion first, and I'll talk to her."

Liu Qingyun stared at Lady Yan coldly: "I don't want to see anyone related to the Xun family. If I see one, I will kill him!"

Liu Qingyun finally gave face to his daughter-in-law and turned to enter the mansion.

Meng Qianqian walked up to Lady Yan and stared at her indifferently: "What brought Master Yan here?"

Madam Yan did not answer Meng Qianqian's question, but said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "When she was trying to kill me, you pretended not to see it, and when I fought back, you immediately showed up."

Meng Qianqian said frankly: "She is my mother-in-law. May I ask who is Master Yan Lou to me?"

Madam Yan's lips moved.

Meng Qianqian said: "Go away, the Governor's Mansion does not welcome you."

Madam Yan asked, "What happened to Lu Yuan?"

Meng Qianqian said calmly, "The Prime Minister sent you here, right? You should understand that I can't possibly tell you about him."

Madam Yan looked at Meng Qianqian's eyes, which were obviously crying, and sighed, "I have no ill will towards Lu Yuan, and I have never done anything to hurt Lu Yuan. If Lu Yuan didn't trust me, he wouldn't have entrusted Bao Shu to me before going to the border."

A hint of hesitation flashed across Meng Qianqian's eyes.

Madam Yan stepped forward and said, "If something really happens to Lu Yuan, maybe I can help him."

Meng Qianqian paused, her eyes swept over the maid and the coachman behind her: "You go in alone, I don't trust them."

Madam Yan nodded and said to the two of them, "You wait here."

The two responded: "Yes, host!"

Madam Yan followed Meng Qianqian into the Governor's Mansion.

The last time Madam Yan came to the Governor's Mansion was to treat Meng Qianqian's cold. At that time, Baoshu had just arrived at the mansion and the Jinyiwei were also there. There were many "prisoners" imprisoned in the dungeon. Every step left a bloody footprint and the water in the pool seemed to be blood red.

After more than half a year, the Jinyiwei withdrew, the dungeon was closed, and the garden was full of flowers and the fragrance of fruits, which was very different from the dreaded "Ashura Mansion" in memory.

"arrive."

Meng Qianqian spoke.

Madam Yan regained consciousness, hummed, and followed Meng Qianqian into the main courtyard.

The servants in the main courtyard all cried with red eyes.

Madam Yan has seen countless people. She may not be able to see through a monster like Lu Yuan, but a group of ordinary servants cannot deceive her.

Meng Qianqian pushed open the door.

Madam Yan saw the seriously injured Lu Yuan lying on the large bed.

"What's up with him?"

Madam Yan asked with a frown.

Meng Qianqian tucked in the quilt for Lu Yuan, covering the gauze on his shoulder: "He was hit by a sword, and the injury is very serious."

Madam Yan stretched out her hand: "Let me see."

"Don't touch him!"

Meng Qianqian vigilantly blocked Yan Niangzi's hand.

Madam Yan glanced at Meng Qianqian with a complicated expression: "I won't harm him."

Meng Qianqian pushed her hand away: "I don't know if you will hurt him or not, but I know that your medical skills are not as good as mine. It is enough for me to save him."

Lady Yan reluctantly withdrew her hand: "Was it the Prime Minister who did it?"

Madam Meng Qianqian kept looking at Lu Yuan: "Madam Yan, who do you belong to? If you can't answer me, please leave."

……

Xiangfu.

Prime Minister Xun was sitting in the study reading a secret letter, along with Xun Qi and Xun Liu.

The servant reported that Madam Yan had arrived.

Xun Qi glanced at his adoptive father.

Prime Minister Xun calmly replied to a secret letter, sealed it with candle wax, stamped it with his seal, and then said to the servant, "Let her in."

Madam Yan told what she saw and heard in the Governor's Mansion, including how Liu Qingyun almost killed her.

Xun Qi asked in confusion: "So, Lu Yuan is not dead?"

Madam Yan said, "He is breathing. I am sure he is still breathing."

Xun Qi murmured, "This is strange. Did Chen Long miss? How badly is he injured?"

The last sentence was asked to Madam Yan.

Madam Yan said, "Meng Qianqian wouldn't let me touch him, so I don't know how badly he was injured."

Xun Qi said: "Not letting you touch? Isn't this too weird?"

Madam Yan sighed, "She said that my medical skills are not as good as hers. She probably doesn't believe me. She's afraid that I will harm Lu Yuan, right?"

Xun Qi sneered: "If I don't trust you, there is no way I can take you in."

Madam Yan looked at Xun Qi: "What do you mean..."

Xun Qi narrowed his eyes: "I suspect that the Lu Yuan you saw today was not the real Lu Yuan! It was the Lu Yuan that Meng Qianqian wanted you to see!"
