Luoyue was stunned for a moment and subconsciously stepped back.

"Chen Xuanling? Why are you here?"

Luoyue was expelled from Tianshui Tower on the day of the trial conference, so naturally she didn't know that the man in front of her was a traitor of Tianshui Tower.

"Why are you so surprised?" Chen Xuanling looked down at Luoyue's hands covering her belly, "Are you pregnant?"

"none of your business?"

"When I came here just now, I saw two familiar people. One of them was anxiously looking for a woman named Luoyue."

There was no expression on Chen Xuanling's face, but Luoyue heard a mockery in it.

"He also told people on the street that it was his pregnant wife who escaped today."

Luoyue felt a little dazed when he heard the word "wife".

That man actually called himself his wife? Was he sincere or did he have to say that just to save face?

The expression on Luoyue's face changed several times, and Chen Xuanling looked faintly impatient.

"I'm not interested in what's going on between you two, but Lin Ruojin means a lot to me, so..."

Chen Xuanling showed a strange smile and said word by word: "Please do me a favor..."

At this time, inside the Mirror Flower and Water Moon Pavilion.

When Zhe Ye came back from outside and heard that Baili Shun was acquitted, he was so angry that he smashed everything within his reach.

Like an angry lion, he lost the rationality that he was proud of.

"Bastard!"

"Tilanna, that bitch! How dare she betray Duansha!"

Zhe Ye's chest heaved violently and his breathing was unstable. Yun stood behind him but did not step forward to comfort the boy as he did in the past.

"Yun, where is that bitch now?"

"My Lord, after Tiliana betrayed the killing to Sikong Lie at noon in the palace, she returned by boat under the protection of the Lin State Guards and the Imperial Master's Guards."

After finishing speaking, Yun paused. Seeing that Zhe Ye still had his back to him and had no movement or reaction, he continued: "Just now the spy reported that..."

"What?" Zhe Ye asked.

"It is said that on her way home, Tiliana suddenly fell ill and her skin became itchy. After she arrived at the neighboring country, her skin completely ulcerated and festering, and she died of the infection!"

Such news was beyond Zhe Ye's expectation. He turned around in shock and confirmed again, "She, is dead?"

Yun nodded.

It turned out that after entering the palace, Tiliana immediately cried to Sikong Lie about what had happened to her not long ago.

She first cried so hard that she almost fainted, and then she spoke in tears about how she accidentally discovered on the night before her execution that the Duansha Organization had murdered Ji Yuheng on their way back to Qifeng, and put the blame on Baili Shun, with whom she had a dispute.

Duansha, a killer organization lurking in the dark night was betrayed by Tiliana.

No one knows why she suddenly betrayed Zhe Ye, nor does anyone know why Tiliana died tragically.

"Fortunately, Master, you were thoughtful and did not let Tiliana know too much about the organization's secrets. So as long as we act carefully, change our identities and leave this place, we can escape this danger safely!"

Zhe Ye closed his eyes in anger, "I never thought that I was the one who missed the mark. Wait..."

The boy's bloodshot eyes suddenly widened.

"Where's Baili Shun?"

"...Still in the death row, the puppet was welcomed back by the people of Tianshui Tower."

"Master, we have to make plans early. Duansha's reputation has been exposed, and Tianshui Tower and the imperial court have already started sending people to track him down."

Zhe Ye's eyes were filled with gloom, "Where is the person I arranged to report the news at the execution ground? Why didn't any news come?"

If he had gotten the news earlier, he would have been able to prepare in time to ambush Tiliana.

"Because of Tiliana's betrayal, the assassins we sent to escort the puppet were also detained. Fortunately, they all committed suicide and were not exposed."

Seeing that Zhe Ye was getting more and more impatient, Yun's expression changed slightly, and he continued to persuade him, "Mirror Flower and Water Moon was created by Ji Yuheng, and there are many things related to him. The things that cannot be seen in public have not been dealt with yet..."

"Even if you want to torture Baili Shun, you have to wait!"

“Okay, I’ll leave this matter to you, Yun. Please handle it cleanly.” Zhe Ye pulled off the brass key hanging around his neck and threw it to Yun. “As for the plan for Tianshui Tower, proceed as usual. Before I leave here, I want to see Tianshui Tower turned into a pile of ruins!”

Yun accepted it without hesitation, lowered his eyes and bowed, "Yes."

Yun pushed open the door quietly and prepared to act according to the plan, when suddenly, Zhe Ye called him again.

"Yun, you and I worked together in times of crisis to eliminate the former leader of Duansha. I only trust you."

Yun turned around, and a rare smile appeared on his calm face. "Thank you for your trust, Master. Yun will definitely live up to your trust."

After saying that, he pushed the door open and left. After he walked away, Yun's smile instantly sank.

There was a festive atmosphere inside Tianshui Tower.

The servants were finally freed from their fears. Everyone had a smile on their face and they all had plenty of energy to work.

Although Tianshui Tower lost a lot of assets after this incident, within half a day, those shopkeepers who had tried their best to cooperate with Baili Shun in the past came to send generous gifts one after another.

Baili Shun divided a large portion of it and asked Bai Yi to use all the money as rewards to his loyal servants.

It was at this time that Lin Ruojin came into the building.

Ah Shi was the first to see the person coming and hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"Miss Lin Er, you are here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of servants rushed over to thank Lin Ruojin for calling on the people from the Gu Yao Sect to help Tianshui Tower in this incident.

Lin Ruojin looked left and right, feeling a little overwhelmed by such enthusiasm, and said jokingly: "When I came here before, I was always treated with a cold brow. Now I am not used to it."

Ah Shi and everyone else blushed.

Behind him, Fourteen and Seven came back angrily.

When they saw Lin Ruojin in the lobby, they quieted down at the same time and moved their gaze to the right to a corner upstairs. The two of them bowed and saluted in that direction.

"You're here." On the second floor, Baili Shun was wearing a black cloak, with a gentle smile on his face. "You came at the right time. The dishes prepared for the Gu Yao Sect are just ready. Are you here to see if there is anything else you want to add?"

He reached out to Lin Ruojin who was downstairs, "Come up quickly."

Lin Ruojin: "So generous? Then I'm going to make you bleed a lot!"

On the second floor, Baili Shun naturally reached out and held her slightly cool hand.

"Why don't you wear more clothes? Your hands are so cold." Baili Shun put the cloak on Lin Ruojin's shoulders and then sighed to himself.

She lost weight.

The cloak was draped over her, but it didn't hold her up at all and made her look even thinner.

"Today, I specifically asked the kitchen to make some sweets for you to replenish your blood. You should eat more. We said goodbye to Qingyun and will see each other again in Death Row. How come you have lost so much weight in just a few days?"

Lin Ruojin: "Because I'm worried about you and her."

"She? Is she your sister?"

Baili Shun didn't know what had happened to Lin Ruofan, and subconsciously thought that Lin Ruojin was worried that he would bother her sister again.

The corners of the man's lips, which had just been smiling, moved stiffly, "Xiao Jin, I want to tell you, I..."

The explanation had just come out of his mouth, but before he got to the point, he was interrupted by laughter coming from a room.

Then Lin Ruojin pushed open the door and saw the joyful scene of Wu Zhiyun and others drinking with Ling Shuang.

Downstairs, everyone who heard the conversation between the two had an expression of disbelief on their faces.

Ah Qi was so shocked by the gentle host that he couldn't close his mouth. "It's over, it's over. Xiao Shisi, we are done..."

Fourteen hadn't recovered from Luoyue's escape yet, and asked in a deep voice, "What does this mean?"

Ah Qi sighed helplessly and held his forehead.

"No wonder Luo Yue wanted to run away. You are such a stupid guy. Don't you see how well the host treats Miss Lin Er?"

It's like he's become a completely different person.

Before, they called Lin Ruojin "concubine lady" all the time, and mocked her every day with that unrecognized and non-existent identity.

If Lin Ruojin wanted to pursue the matter now.

Isn't it over?

Inside the room, the people from the Gu Medicine Sect surrounded Lin Ruojin and looked him up and down.

"You've lost weight, you've really lost weight!" Ling Chen caressed Lin Ruojin's shoulders distressedly, "You were well taken care of in the Gu Medicine Sect."

"How about, when you are done, come back to Gu Yao Sect with us."

Ling Shuang looked at Baili Shun's unhappy expression and quickly added: "Xiao Jin, come and sit over here. I've saved a seat for you. It's almost time. Let's serve the food."

The maids brought dishes to the table, and the variety of delicious dishes was an eye-opener.

"It smells so good..." Long Jun's eyes were wide open.

Lin Ruojin glanced at the other people in the room and suddenly asked: "Why is Aguzhu in such a hurry to leave when he is fine?"

There was a loud bang of thunder.

Wu Zhiyun and the others all changed their expressions.

Liu Fufeng: "Ahem, leave her alone, she won't enjoy the food!"

Ling Chen: "That child, misses home..."

Long Jun almost buried his head in his rice bowl, "Yeah."

Lin Ruojin thought about it and felt even more strange. "I bumped into her on the street today. She even changed her clothes on purpose, as if she was hiding from something..."

Rumbling--

There was another burst of thunder.

Liu Fufeng: "Oh my, these meatballs are really round. How did you make them so round?"

The maid who was serving the dishes nearby thought he was asking her, and quickly replied: "I rubbed it with my hands."

Liu Fufeng: "No wonder, it's so good, how can it be so good, hahahahaha."

Everyone: "..."

At this time, Baili Shun, who had been picking up food for Lin Ruojin, looked at Wu Zhiyun who remained silent and said, "Master, shall we chat after dinner?"

Wu Zhiyun: It’s broken!

Now I really have to take responsibility!

Ling Shuang took Lin Ruojin aside and told her many things that happened while she was away. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a very familiar figure, so she called out to stop the girl who was serving the dishes.

But when the other person turned around, Lingshuang sighed again.

"Lingshuang, what's wrong?" Baili Shun asked.

Ling Shuang thought about it for a moment and felt that it was necessary to explain this matter to Baili Shun, so she explained to him in a low voice, "Actually, when I came to the dungeon to find you that day, I met a girl on the way..."
