Concubine Zhan blinked her eyes and asked, "Will the emperor believe it?"

Lin Yiwan slowly uttered, "If he really cared about Zhan Yan, and truly cared about the kindness he showed me when he risked his life to save me, he would definitely believe it!"

She wanted to gamble, gamble on the emperor's sincerity!

But after leaving, she hesitated again.

Would the emperor be willing to give his true heart to Zhan Yan?

That is a serious crime of confiscating property and exterminating the entire family!

She can't afford the gamble!

Having made up her mind, she went straight to the Dali Temple.

Her uncle Lin Ran has many tracking experts under his command, and she wants to use them to find the whereabouts of King Zhongyong.

At this time, Emperor Sheng An's face was ashen and ugly in the imperial study of the palace. The smooth marble floor was covered with broken tea bowls and tea stains everywhere.

He gritted his teeth and said, "That traitor actually dared to escape from Jiming Mountain. Those guards were either dead or injured. He's really capable!"

Zhan Yan complex said: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that the loyal and brave king has been forced into a corner!"

Emperor Sheng An suddenly frowned, "What is he going to do? Will he go all out to assassinate me?"

Zhan Yan shook his head: "No, he will get rid of me first. He needs to properly place those private soldiers in his hands, and the military power in my hands is what he wants!"

Emperor Sheng An interrupted without hesitation: "Then he really miscalculated. I trust you the most. No matter what, the military power in your hands will never be taken back!"

A complex expression flashed across Zhan Yan's face. He really wanted to ask, if you knew my life experience, would you still be so sure?

Seeing him suddenly fall silent, Emperor Sheng An couldn't help but raise his voice and ask, "Zhan Yan, you heartless man, you won't doubt me, will you?"

Zhan Yan raised an eyebrow. "How could that be possible? It's just that the King of Loyalty and Bravery is cunning. Who knows what sinister tricks he will come up with to deal with this humble minister?"

Emperor Sheng An snorted coldly: "No matter what tricks he uses, I will trust you!"

Zhan Yan nodded: "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty!"

As night fell, several figures rushed towards the Lin Mansion.

Lin Yiwan, who was originally waiting for news in Lin Ran's study, stood up suddenly when she heard footsteps.

At this time, a spy walked in quickly and said, "Your Excellency, I have discovered that the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion has purchased a lot more dishes than before, including some game. These are all the favorites of the Zhongyong King!"

Lin Ran nodded: "So, the King of Loyalty and Bravery is hiding in the Sheng family of the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion!"

Lin Yiwan narrowed her eyes: "Sheng Baozhu? We're old acquaintances!"

She didn't hesitate any longer and said quickly, "Uncle, you should have someone under your command who is good at disguise, right?"

Lin Ran pondered, "Yes, but do you want to risk your life to sneak into the uncle's house? Do you want your uncle to find some help for you?"

Lin Yiwan shook her head. "The King of Loyalty and Bravery is extremely treacherous. More people would only arouse his suspicion. Since I'm going alone, I'm confident I can escape unscathed. Trust me!"

Lin Ran knew her ability, so he didn't insist.

He found a woman and calmly introduced her: "Her name is Wanmian. She is the aunt who is best at disguise in Dali Temple. You can call her Aunt Wan!"

Lin Yiwan's eyes widened. "Aunt? She doesn't look much older than me, right?"

Aunt Wan immediately narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Oh, thank you for the compliment, Madam Hou. I am almost fifty years old!"

She reached out and wiped her face, revealing her weather-beaten face.

Lin Yiwan was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth. "You looked so young just now, how come you looked so much older in an instant?"

Aunt Wan laughed: "This is the effect of disguise. I didn't get the name Wanmian for nothing. Not to mention a young woman, I can even pretend to be a beautiful girl!"

Lin Yiwan's face was full of admiration, and she was once again glad that it was the right decision to find her uncle.

I have to say, he has a lot of capable people under his command.

About half an hour later, Lin Yiwan was disguised as an old-looking bell doctor.

She was carrying a worn-out medicine box and had dark skin.

Lin Ran couldn't help but joke, "If Zhan Yan were in front of you right now, he might not even recognize you!"

Lin Yiwan blinked. "Really? If I can even fool him, then I'll be a true success!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhan Yan's voice was heard outside: "Is uncle here?"

Lin Ran's eyes lit up: "I'm here, Zhan Yan, come in quickly!"

Zhan Yan pushed the door open and walked in. He first looked around the room. When his eyes fell on Lin Yiwan, they moved away in an instant.

He subconsciously asked, "Uncle, has Wanwan been here?"

Lin Ran said meaningfully: "You didn't see her?"

Zhan Yan shook his head: "No, I went back to the mansion and the servants said she came out from the back door. I guess the only place she could come is the Lin Mansion!"

At this time, Lin Yiwan quickly walked up to him and said, "My Lord, you look exhausted. Would you like to have a cup of tea first?"

She handed him the tea and kept waving it in front of his eyes.

Zhan Yan felt that she was blocking his view, so he leaned half of his body out to look at Lin Ran.

Lin Ran couldn't help but be amused by him and couldn't help but say, "Zhan Yan, take a closer look. Who is the person pouring tea for you?"

Zhan Yan frowned and looked up to meet Lin Yiwan's mischievous eyes.

She narrowed her eyes and smiled: "What? Marquis Zhan Yi can't even recognize his own wife?"

His face was full of surprise. To be honest, if he hadn't heard her voice, he wouldn't have thought she was Lin Yiwan.

After all, her face really doesn't look like him.

Not to mention her dark skin, her eyes were completely different from before.

He subconsciously called out, "Wanwan?"

She lowered her eyes and chuckled softly, "Yes, it's me. I just had Aunt Wan change my appearance, and I'm planning to go to the Cheng En Marquis's Mansion!"

Zhan Yan's expression suddenly changed: "What are you doing there?"

Lin Yiwan leaned over to his ear and whispered, "I've discovered that besides the Crescent Jade Pendant, there's also a Saint Maiden Token that can prove your origins. It's already in the hands of the Loyal and Brave King, and he'll seize the opportunity to make a big fuss about it!"

Zhan Yan's pupils contracted violently. He never expected that Madam Zhan was hiding something.

However, fortunately, Lin Yiwan found out the information in time!

Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous!

He knew better than anyone that Lin Yiwan was a bold and careful person. Now that she was ready to sneak into the Cheng En Marquis's mansion, no one could stop her.

He pulled out a bamboo tube from his sleeve and said, "This is a signal firework. If you are in danger, just pull it open and I will appear in time!"

Lin Yiwan sweetly put away the bamboo tube, then quickly left with the medicine box on her back.

Looking at her leaving back, Lin Ran's eyes were complicated and obscure.

He said hoarsely, "Zhan Yan, is King Zhongyong trying to use your background to discredit you?"
