The next day, Saturday.

Xie Beiheng knew that Lin Xiangxiang didn't have to work today, and originally planned to accompany her to the hospital to visit her grandparents.

Unexpectedly, before he even reached the study, An Yi appeared in a hurry and reported: "Master, Xie Beiyu has left the house!"

Xie Beiheng paused, his eyes suddenly becoming sharp, and he asked in a deep voice, "Did you bring anyone with you?"

An Yi immediately replied, "No, not even Ling Feng was with him. I suspect Xie Beiyu left the house alone in an attempt to get rid of the secret guards."

Xie Beiheng's dark eyes suddenly flashed with light. Very good, I was afraid that he didn't want to get rid of the secret guard.

"Have them follow closely for a while, then slowly move away and use binoculars to monitor Xie Beiyu. Let him think he's gotten away. This time, we must find out where he went and who he met."

"This prince is in the study today. Any situation must be reported immediately!"

An Yi received the order, "Yes, Master."

After An Yi left, Xie Beiheng traveled to Lin Xiangxiang's bedroom, explained to her, and then immediately returned to the study.

The fishing line moved, which proved that the big fish at the bottom of the water would soon surface. He had to stay in the mansion today!

An hour later.

An Yi appeared in the study, "Master, An Liu just came back to report that Xie Beiyu walked around the city and then headed towards Longhua Temple outside the city."

Longhua Temple?

Longhua Temple is a century-old temple located on Longhua Mountain outside the city. Later, when a member of a prominent family in the capital died and could not be buried in the ancestral hall for some reason, they would enshrine their memorial tablets in Longhua Temple.

Over time, fewer and fewer ordinary people came here to burn incense. Therefore, although Longhua Temple is large in scale and majestic, not many people go up the mountain every day.

Xie Beiheng's eyes darkened, "Send a few more people, make sure to keep an eye on him!"

……

The back door of the Dali Temple's residence.

"Miss, I have sent the people away. Please come out quickly." The maid Xiyuan said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Pei Luoyan cautiously poked her little head out from behind the archway.

She looked around nervously and fearfully, and after making sure that there was no one around, she picked up her skirt, ran out in small steps in panic, and then quickly went out the back door.

After the two of them went out, they got on a carriage. When the coachman saw them get on the carriage, he shouted softly and drove the carriage towards Longhua Temple outside the city.

Inside the carriage.

Pei Luoyan's heart was beating fast, and the palms of her hands folded in front of her were full of sweat. This was the first time she disobeyed her father and left the house without permission. She was extremely scared!

Xi Yuan sat aside angrily, her face full of resentment, and she said angrily, "Miss, if I tell you, we won't go to Longhua Temple, but go to Lingqu City to find the old master. I believe the old master will definitely make the decision for you."

She didn't know why the always well-behaved and gentle young lady dared to disobey the master and do such a thing today, but since she had already done it, she might as well go directly to Lingqu City!

Hearing Xi Yuan's words, Pei Luoyan quickly shook her head and said, "No, no..."

"My mother has been dead for many years. Although my grandfather is the mayor of Lingqu City, my father is a third-rank official in the court. If I anger my father over this, wouldn't that also implicate my grandfather and my uncle?"

Xi Yuan heard this, her lips curled up, and she frowned, "But even if we go to Longhua Temple today, we can't escape the fate of the first month. When we return home, Song will still bring her sickly nephew to the mansion, and Master will still marry you to him."

After saying this, he became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and angrily added, "Ever since the Madam passed away, the Master has changed. Everything in the mansion is under the control of that Song family. Now, even your lifelong affairs are completely under the control of the Song family."

How can such a pretty girl like Miss marry that sickly guy in his twenties?

Hearing Xi Yuan's words, Pei Luoyan's eyes instantly turned red, and her heart became more and more sad. Tears welled up in her eyes and seemed to be about to fall, making her look particularly pitiful.

She choked up and said, "I know that my marriage is not my decision. No matter who my father wants me to marry, I have no choice but to agree."

"It's just... I just can't bear it, so I figured I'd just hide for as long as I could..."

After he finished speaking, the blue color appeared in front of his eyes again. Thinking of this, his nose felt sore and sad tears rolled down uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.

The petite body leaned slightly against the car wall, revealing endless sadness and helplessness.

……

Longhua Temple.

In a secluded and quiet Zen courtyard near the back mountain, there is a square stone table and four stone benches.

At this time, two people were sitting opposite each other on a stone bench.

One of them wore a half-black, half-white mask with fangs painted on it, while the other looked at the other fiercely, exuding an aura of nobility and inviolability.

The secret guards hiding in the distance looked at the person in front of them in shock.

"Hurry, An Liu, go back and report to the master." An San said urgently.

"it is good."

An Liu agreed and was about to use his Qinggong to leave, but An San quickly grabbed him and said, "Wait a minute!" After that, he hurriedly turned on the recording function of the telescope.

After confirming that it was recorded, he hurriedly exchanged the telescope in his hand with An Liu's telescope and quickly said, "Go!"

Xie Beiheng sat in the study and never left. He must know who Xie Beiyu met today!

Dayue is now plagued by bandits inside and outside, and the northern barbarians are eyeing it covetously. At this time of internal and external troubles and disasters, there are still people who collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, and are willing to be traitors and running dogs.

If these termites are not eradicated one by one, Dayue will never be able to usher in a peaceful and prosperous era!

As I thought of this, I heard a slight sound of footsteps coming from outside.

Xie Beiheng looked up and saw An Yi and An Liu entering the study. Normally, someone below him would report to An Yi, who would then report directly to him.

At this moment, seeing An Yi and An Liu coming in anxiously, Xie Beiheng's heart tightened.

"Your subordinate greets the master." An Liu's face was heavy, and there was a hint of panic in his tone.

Xie Beiheng stared at him closely, a sudden ominous premonition arose in his heart, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.

"Who exactly is the person Xie Beiyu is meeting?"

An Liu didn't dare to delay and immediately replied: "Master, the person Xie Beiyu met is... the prince!"
