There was a sudden noise outside, as if someone was running over.Both Li Mu and Rong Tan sat up, and then they saw a light outside, and someone walked to the door with a lantern and shouted: "Master."

"what's up?"

"The Fan family is here. They want to find the young master, and they have something important to do."

After hearing this, Rong Tan quickly put on his clothes and got out of bed, opened the door, and Li Mu also came out together.The man seemed to be taken aback when he saw the two of them coming out of a room, but he quickly lowered his head again.

"Where is the person?" Rong asked.

"It's in the front hall."

When they arrived at the front hall, they saw a young man in his twenties, dressed in a green robe, bowing to them.

"Your son sent you to find me?"

The man said: "My young master sent me to tell Mr. Rong that Lu Guangye is fine. Now he is in Fan Zhai. Please rest assured, Mr. Rong."

"Lu Guangye..." Rong Tan turned his head and glanced at Li Mu, barely suppressing the surge in his heart, nodded and said, "I see, tell your son, I'll be there early tomorrow morning."

"Why is Lu Guangye back?" After returning to the room, Rong asked Li Mu.

Li Mu said, "I'll find out when I ask at Fan's house tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly made a booing motion, and Rong Tan turned his head to look out, and saw a figure looming on the paper window.

It seemed as if someone was eavesdropping.

Rong Tan sat on the bed, saw that the person outside seemed to squat down, then there was no more movement, and said: "My third uncle, you seem to be kind."

Li Mu smiled, but did not speak.Rong Tan said again: "If my third uncle is capable, I might as well give him the position of head of the family. I'm a playboy, and I only want to be rich and safe."

After such a night, he and Li Mu went to Fan's house early in the morning of the second day.Rong poked into the door and ran in. When he saw Fan Xingzhi, he asked, "Where is Lu Guangye?"

Fan Xingzhi said: "Just after waking up, Li Wei is taking care of him."

Fan Xingzhi said and took him to the backyard.Rong Tan pushed the door open and went in, and saw Li Wei sitting on the edge of the bed, helping Lu Guangye to feed the medicine.Seeing him, Lu Guangye immediately sat up straight and called out, "Young Master..."

"Lie down and don't move." Rong Tan said, "I'll come and see you."

"I've heard all about you, Su Ling..." Lu Guangye said: "The subordinates are incompetent, they failed to protect Lord Li and the others well."

"What's going on, aren't you with the master and the others?"

Lu Guangye told Rong Tan what happened to him.

It turned out that Lu Guangye didn't fall down after being shot by an arrow, but tried to stop those half-corpses with a knife, but was shot twice in succession. The half-corpses probably thought he was dead, and only took away the old master and Zhu Jian , Abandoned him on the side of the road, or a family surnamed Wang on the side of the street saw that he was still alive, and secretly dragged him into the house after those half-corpses left.

Lu Guangye was seriously injured and fell into a coma for a long time. After waking up, he told the family about his identity one after another.It's just that he also had doubts in his heart, so he became more careful and felt that Rong's house might not be safe, so he asked the Wang family to send him to Fan's house.

"Are you sure those half-corpses captured the old master and Zhu Yan?"

Lu Guangye nodded: "I have personally seen those half-corpses put them on horses."

After hearing this, Rong Wen felt a little more at ease. What he was most afraid of was that the old master and Zhu Yan had already been killed by those half corpses, but they failed to find the corpses.Now that it is confirmed that those half-corpses just captured the old master and the others, it means that those half-corpses are indeed instigated by someone behind the scenes, and the target is probably him, the young master of the Rong family.

"We will take care of the next thing. We don't know who is behind the scenes. Rong Zhai is far less safe than here. You can recuperate here for the time being. Fan Er will take care of you."

"Young Master, Young Master." A servant's voice suddenly came from outside, and Fan Xingzhi walked out the door and asked, "What's the matter?!"

"Someone came from Rong Zhai, saying that he has something important to see Mr. Rong!"

Rong Tan also came out immediately, and asked: "What's the matter, who is looking for me?"

"Master Rong sent someone to take the young master back, saying that there is something to be said about Mr. Li."

Rong Tan immediately took a look at Fan Xing.Fan Xingzhi said: "Then go back and have a look, be careful."

"It's fine with Li Mu here." Rong Tan said and hurried out with Li Mu, but Li Wei followed and shouted, "Brother, is there any news from dad?"

Li Mu turned back and said, "You wait for the news here, listen carefully to what you say."

Li Wei stopped, watching Rong Tan and Li Mu get into the carriage with red eyes, and then walked back.Fan Xingzhi was worried, and sent several guards to see them off.

When he got home, Rong Tan went straight to Mr. Rong's place, but he saw that the courtyard where Mr. Rong lived was very small, and the furnishings inside were also very simple.Third Master Rong was wearing a robe of ink and wash, and was sitting on the couch drinking tea. When he saw Rong poking in, he waved.

"Third Uncle." Rong Tan said, "I heard from my servant that there is news about Mr. Li?"

Third Master Rong picked up a letter on the case and handed it to him with a serious face: "Master Li was really tied up."

Rong Tan took the letter and glanced at it. It was a bloody letter, and it smelled bloody, so every word was shocking.Rong Tan read it once, and handed it to Li Mu behind him, while he frowned and asked Third Master Rong: "Master Li is in their hands, is it trustworthy?"

"Look at this." Third Master Rong took out another box as he spoke, but with a sad expression on his face, he said, "You have to prepare yourself."

Rong Tan nodded, but it turned out that Mr. Rong said to the box, "This box was delivered together with that letter."

When Rong Tan opened the box, his hands shook, and he quickly turned to look at Li Mu, seeing that Li Mu's eyes were slightly red, and he was holding the letter in his hand tightly.

What was contained in that box was a finger, and there was a finger puller on that finger, which was often worn by the master.

"Where's the messenger?" Li Mu asked.

Rong Tan said: "Someone threw it in from outside the wall, but the guard at the door didn't see anyone."

"The superior said that I was only allowed to go alone?" Rong asked.

"This is clearly a trap." Li Mu said.

Third Master Rong also said: "I also think this is a trap, but if we don't follow through, we don't know what the consequences will be. What are these people trying to do? How dare they act wildly on our Rong family's territory? Tan'er, what do you think?" Who could it be?"

Rong Tan said: "I'm going back to Donghe for the first time in so many years. I don't know if I have any enemies."

"Although you don't know, I don't know if you have heard the rumors outside."

Rong Tan pretended not to know: "What rumors?"

Third Master Rong said with a smile: "Some quite absurd rumors think that I want to kill you."

Rong Tan also laughed: "That's really absurd, you are my third uncle, and I am a family, how could you kill me?"

"You're wrong," Rong Sanye said, "If you're not a family, you won't be killed."

Rong Tan restrained his smile and looked at Third Master Rong.

Rong Sanye went on to say: "Father and son brothers will kill each other because of power, not to mention other relatives, how many people in ancient and modern times are blinded by the desire for power, I treat you as a nephew, not necessarily your other uncles think the same way."

"What Uncle San means is that the mastermind behind this scene may be someone from our Rong family?"

"I'm just guessing, but don't look at what your uncles are thinking when they see you, their noses and tears. If it wasn't for my hard work, our Rong family would have collapsed long ago."

Rong Tan laughed and said, "Does Third Uncle really not want to be the head of the family at all?"

"You think it's a good job to be a family member? If your father didn't ask me to take care of this family for you before he died, I would rather continue to be a rich and idle person."

Rong Tan carefully observed his third uncle's expression, and felt that the words came from the bottom of his heart.If he is not really innocent, then he is really deep-minded, and he is too good at disguising.

"Anyway, if you need anything, just tell me, the guards of the Rong family are at your disposal. If anyone dares to murder you, I will be the first to let him go."

"Thank you third uncle, let me think about it."

After coming out from Third Master Rong, Rong Tan lost his smile.Li Mu also looked gloomy and remained silent.Rong Tan said, "I have to go."

Now that the letter has been sent, it is imperative to make this trip in case of accidents.It's just that this trip is obviously going to fall into a trap, and there is always the risk of life and death, so careful planning is required.

Li Mu nodded, and clenched the bloody letter in his hand: "I'll go and call Shen Yan. This matter requires thorough preparations."

"But the letter said that as long as I go alone, if there is a second person following me, the master and the others will lose their lives."

"If you go alone, you will die."

"But master..." Rong Tan gritted his teeth and said, "He is not only your father, he has raised me all these years. To me, he is not a retainer, but also my father. Since I put him As a father, as a son, there is no reason to ignore his father's suffering, I can't do it, and you can't do it."

"That can't make you die in vain, not to mention how do you know that they will let my father go if you go as promised?" Li Mu said, "Don't worry, let me discuss with Shen Yan, this matter should also be let Li Wei knows."

Rong Tan nodded: "We should let him know. I'll send someone to invite them right away."
