Ru Yue Shu Yun Feng Wen Wan

Following the same procedure, Fu Ning took He Ru off the horse and then carried him into the carriage. An Yun tactfully brought his medicine box to him.

He Yusheng quickly made a fire and boiled water.

He Huan helped Fu Ning with the work. Actually, Fu Ning could have done it with or without He Huan, but they were just trying to avoid suspicion. Just because no one said anything now didn't mean no one would say anything in the future.

He only cut a big hole in her clothes around her waist. Seeing the condition of the wound, which was slightly inflamed, he put the knife on the fire until it was hot before he dared to remove the stone from her waist.

He Huan was not allowed to see this process.

After cleaning the wound and bandaging it simply, she went out and asked He Huan to bandage her carefully.

Fu Ning retreated and found Qi Changyun, and Lan Lian had also arrived.

Lan Lian: "Old Qi! Are the flares you used today okay?"

Qi Changyun: "Yes!"

Lan Lian's face was filled with disappointment: "Tell me, what are you doing here for no reason? Now that you're here, what if you're exposed?"

Fu Ning came to Qi Changyun's rescue: "This matter cannot be entirely blamed on Old Qin..."

Lan Lian didn't want to listen to their excuses at all. Everyone knew their little tricks.

"Stop, you can't blame him entirely, blame you! If he hadn't insisted on coming, would you have come here? What else does it take you to do in person?"

Fu Ning stopped talking too.

Qi Changyun knew that he was in the wrong and that he was being willful.

Now we can only think of ways to remedy the situation.

"Okay! I get it! Now we have to return to the capital before we're exposed."

Fu Ning nodded and tried to survive in the cracks.

Lan Lian: "This is the only way. How many people did you bring?"

“It’s all there!”

The three of them looked back and saw that there weren't many people around.

Lan Lian: Rolling eyes, not wanting to talk.

Fu Ning: "Traveling light and simply isn't necessarily worse than going big. Isn't keeping a low profile what we want?"

Qi Changyun had a strong desire to survive: "That's what I thought."

"But the flares you used are recognizable to any official. Do you expect them not to see them?"

There are four types of signal flares in Xiqing: red, yellow, blue and green

Green is the lowest level and carries the lowest risk. Blue is second, and yellow is considered extremely urgent. Red, on the other hand, is only used by the emperor. If someone gets a red flare, it means they are extremely valuable.

But only a handful of people can get the red flare, or maybe none at all.

Currently, in Xiqing, only two people have obtained this flare and made it known to the public: Grand Tutor Lu Qian and King Qin Zihe of Jingbei. It's possible that someone else may have it privately.

This person not only needs to be of noble status but also needs to be trusted by the emperor, otherwise anyone can use this kind of flare and disrupt public order.

If the emperor is in danger, three missiles will be fired in succession. Any capable common people or officials who see the situation will put down whatever they are doing and go to the signal launch site to provide support.

Lan Lian: "If we want to conceal the truth now, it would undoubtedly be reasonable to find someone to fabricate an identity."

Fu Ning analyzed: "The second one definitely can't do it. He doesn't meet the requirements, and I am even less qualified. Maybe I can even confirm Lao Qin's identity."

"Then~" The three of them looked at the carriage together, understanding each other tacitly, and said nothing.

Qi Changyun still hesitated: "But..."

Lan Lian: "But what, is there any choice?"

Qi Changyun: "It's more or less like taking advantage of someone's misfortune."

Fu Ning added: "Isn't it also not possible for you to just be wishful thinking?"

Qi Changyun thought it was not impossible and nodded, "Okay!"

"Okay, stop standing here and go!"

Qi Changyun's coming here wasn't useless; at least he had found He Ru. When they were out of sight, Lan Lian counted the number of people, one dead and three injured, including He Ru.

After everything was arranged, Lan Lian said to the escort leader, "Captain, thank you for your hard work, but you have to remember that no one else has been here today except us. Understand?"

The escort leader was not completely clueless. At least he knew about the signal flare. The more you know about such things, the faster you will die.

He nodded hurriedly to show his determination.

After the escorts left, Lan Lian found the remaining few people and put together a plan.

Lan Lian: "Those people just now have special identities. I hope you can pretend you haven't seen them, okay?"

He Yusheng: "Why?"

Lan Lian really had to think about his wording: "Because..."

Fortunately, He Huan took over the conversation: "If I'm not mistaken, the signal flare just now was red. Could he be the King of Jingbei?"

It seems that He Huan also knows something.

He Yusheng looked at He Huan in confusion: "Seventh Sister, why? How did you know?"

He Huan explained, "Grandfather once said that there were only two people with red flares, the King of Jingbei and Grand Tutor Lu."

He Yusheng nodded. "Isn't the King of Jingbei in Jingzhou? How did he get here?"

Lan Lian: It’s getting even more difficult. What’s going on?

He interrupted hurriedly: "Stop! The flare just now was not fired by Lao Qi, but by Xiao Liu."

He Yusheng blinked his big eyes and looked at He Huan.

He Huan was also confused and shook his head, but still questioned: "Not everyone can use red flares. Where did the fifth sister come from?"

Lan Lian: "I have nothing to say about this. I can only say that you shouldn't know too much."

Just as the two were led into a trap by him, the bystander Tang Shi realized that they might let He Ru take the blame again.

He quickly said, "Was it really our boss who put it there? She was clearly unconscious when we arrived, how could she have put it there?"

He Huan and his sister thought about it and it seemed to be true!

Lan Lian knew that talking too much would only lead to mistakes: "You can wait until she wakes up and ask her."

Tang Shi was now speechless, obviously not expecting him to say that.

But she still didn't believe what he said: "Now the boss hasn't woken up yet, so what do you say? When she wakes up, it will be a done deal, what can we do?"

He Huan also grasped the key: "Since you said it was Fifth Sister who released it, then why did those people leave just now? Is it really such a coincidence?"

He Yusheng finally understood, "If it was my sister who put it there, what consequences would it have on her?"

Well everyone found the key.

Lan Lian was also prepared to explain that it was really He Ru who released the signal flare, otherwise it would be bad if someone regretted it later.

Lan Lian: "You guys first..."

However, a voice like the sound of nature came from the carriage: "Second brother, come in."

She felt relieved that she didn't have to explain to them, but she was still a little nervous because after all, they were blaming her for everything.

Before Lan Lian arrived, He Yusheng got on the carriage like a firecracker.

"Sister! Are you okay?"

He Ru looked at him and felt that her younger brother was also a smart one.

"It's okay, you go out first! I want to talk to your second brother Lan."

He Yusheng also knew that the matter was of great importance, so he went out obediently.

Lan Lian came in: "Did you hear that?"

He Ru nodded: "You are too noisy!"

"Qi Changyun saved me?"

Lan Lian nodded.

He Ru was sure that it was really Qi Changyun.
