Lord, the female supporting characters will marry her

Chapter 18: Unexplained Peace of Mind

Thick clouds blocked the bright moon, and the deep night concealed the starlight.

Yan Sheng, Leng Yan'an and Dong'er came out of the secret passage. Leng Yan'an said to Xiaoqiu who was guarding the pool, "Xiaoqiu, clean up the side room. And you should stay with Dong'er tonight."

There are only three rooms in the Plum Courtyard, one for Leng Yanan, one for Xiaoqiu, and a side room for miscellaneous items. Dong'er is a woman after all, and you can't let her sleep in a secret passage with a group of masked men in black.

Although Xiaoqiu was somewhat curious about why Dong'er was secretly talking, and what the relationship was between the masked man in black and the young lady, she would obey unconditionally as long as the young lady gave the order.

"Yes, ma'am."

"No need to clean up, I'll just sleep on the roof." Yan Sheng, a professional roofer, said this, then flew to the roof and lay down on it.

Xiao Qiu looked at Leng Yan'an somewhat helplessly, "Miss, this?"

Leng Yanan saw Yan Sheng lying on his roof with ease, and couldn't help but twitch his lips, "Don't worry about him, and don't clean up."

"it is good."

"Sister Xiaoqiu, don't worry. I sleep very well and won't snore--" Dong'er quickly took Xiaoqiu's hand and said happily.

Xiao Qiu was amused, "You, I don't mind you even if you snore."

At night, Leng Yan lay quietly in bed, thinking about what happened today, and couldn't fall asleep.

Many things are different from the previous life, and my abilities are still limited. If Yan Sheng hadn't set up a magic circle at the entrance of the secret passage today, I would probably be finished.

However, in this life, I have changed their fate of tragic death at the coming-of-age ceremony, and it is the only thing I can do now.

I always feel that Yan Sheng is different from the leader of the secret guards I saw in my previous life, but I can't tell how.

In his previous life, he had only seen the leader of the secret guards once, and he was also masked. But if Yan Sheng was not the leader of the secret guards, how could he assassinate the prime minister? And how could he know about the young lady?

Leng Yanan turned over carefully. She could still feel Yan Sheng sleeping on the roof of her house. Looking at the beams in the house, she felt inexplicably at peace.

the next morning

After Leng Yan'an finished washing up, he walked out of the house and looked towards the roof. There was no one there. He saw a few packets of medicinal herbs on the table.

Xiao Qiu came over and whispered, "Miss, that young master sent a few packets of medicinal herbs early last night—"

The medicinal materials were prepared so quickly. Leng Yanan asked Dong'er to deliver food to the masked man in black in the secret passage.

"I just heard that the fourth young lady woke up. She also said that she saw the man in black killing the third young lady before she fainted yesterday. I don't know anything else."

"It's expected that Leng Ruozhen would say that." Even if it was an assassin who killed her, why did he only kill Leng Ruoyan and not Leng Ruozhen and Leng Ruoqing?

Leng Ruozhen should have seen the real murderer, but he didn't dare to say. Who would take the opportunity to kill Leng Ruoyan?

After breakfast, Leng Yanan had been fiddling with medicinal herbs. He had just delivered the medicine to the masked man in black and was about to go back to the house when he saw Yan Sheng standing by the pool.

"Yan'an, I will take them out of the house tomorrow night..." Yan Sheng decided to take them out of the house as soon as possible. After all, staying in the secret passage all the time was not a long-term solution.

Leng Yan'an didn't expect Yan Sheng to take action so soon, "Tomorrow night?"

"Yes." The guard shift change at the Prime Minister's Mansion has been figured out. As long as he takes advantage of the gap during the shift change and uses his lightness skills to quickly avoid the Prime Minister's secret guards, he can get out. He has also asked Anye to bring people to meet him outside the mansion.

"Ah Yan, can you take Dong'er out of the house with you?" Leng Yan'an knew that taking one more person would increase the risk, but now only Yan Sheng had the ability to do so, so he had to ask.

Leng Yanan's subordinates are all good at medicine and pharmacology, but not very good at martial arts. Dong'er is good at light work, but his martial arts skills are average.

The mansion is now heavily guarded and it is impossible to leave safely. The account books must be sent out as soon as possible to avoid any further trouble.

The killers of the Blood Bamboo Hall are all very skilled. If they hadn't been injured, it would have been no problem for them to get out. Leng Yan'an wanted to send Dong'er out of the house. There must be something important that needed to be taken out. Everyone has their own secrets, so it wouldn't be difficult to take one more person with them.

"Okay," Yan Sheng handed Leng Yan'an his handwritten tutorial and said calmly, "This is the basic operation of the 'concealment' formation. Study it first. If you don't understand anything, I'll teach you."

Leng Yanan was slightly startled, "Okay, thank you, Ayan."

I thought he was just saying it casually, but I didn't expect he actually wrote a tutorial on the magic circle himself.

These past two days, Leng Yanan was either tinkering with medicinal herbs or studying magic arrays, while Yan Sheng returned to the Blood Bamboo Hall to handle matters.

"Miss, this is the invitation sent by the eldest prince. The imperial concubine's dinner will be held in five days. And this is the third prince inviting you to watch the lantern festival the day after tomorrow--" Xiaoqiu handed the two invitations to Leng Yanan.

"Xiao Qiu, please leave the eldest prince's invitation and please decline the third prince's invitation for me." Leng Yan'an put away the eldest prince's invitation. The imperial concubine's dinner was coming soon, and he had to prepare well.

"If the Third Prince sends such a boring invitation again, just throw it away."

Today he invites me to go boating on the lake, and the day after tomorrow he invites me to watch the lantern festival. Does Yu Qianmo think he is still the same fool as in his previous life?

In his previous life, he was afraid of water but still invited people to go boating on the lake, and he also directed and acted out a hero-saving-a-beauty drama at the lantern festival. Yu Qianmo is truly a hypocrite who will do anything to achieve his goals.
