In the afternoon, Bishui went outside to inquire about the news. As Yun Yan thought, Yang Ao still insisted that he had embezzled the disaster silver. As for the disaster silver, he said that he had used it all. And he got it from the imperial court.

According to the news, Yang Ao does have several private residences, so this makes sense.

Although Yun Yan knew that Yang Ao's statement was untrue, Mu Yangtian already had a tendency to agree with this statement. After all, after investigating for a long time, he knew nothing about the whereabouts of the disaster money. Originally, there were many officials involved in the case.

, if this case continues to expand, I am afraid it will only make the court more unstable.

There was no wind at night, and the woman in the room was lying on the couch. There was no sound in the room. She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the woman kneeling below. Her originally calm face suddenly seemed to have condensed with frost.

The woman below was kneeling there with her head lowered, her hands on her knees, her fingers clasped tightly, and her fingertips were slightly white. She looked at the ground and did not dare to express her anger. Just because the aura of the woman above was too strong, she

I felt a little scared unconsciously.

After a long time, the woman on the couch finally spoke up. She glanced at the woman kneeling on the ground and said indifferently: "Do you know why I called you here today? And did you specifically open the clear water?"

Listening to this sudden sound, Ling Bo below shivered, and with a trembling voice, she whispered: "Slave, I don't know..."

Don’t you know? Yun Yanfeng narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at Ling Bo. Her eyes turned sharply and sharply. She lowered her voice and said in a deep voice: "Why?"

Perhaps the voice was too low, and Ling Bo's thin body suddenly trembled, almost falling to the ground. She nervously stabilized her body and knelt on the spot. She slowly raised her head, and a pretty face appeared on her face.

Looking at the cold woman above with a hint of astonishment, she seemed to be electrocuted. Her head lowered instantly and she whispered: "I don't understand what the lady means." She slowly clenched her little hands on her knees,

Her nails dug into her flesh, and she didn't even notice.

Yun Yan sat up, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Ling Bo. In his memory, she was gentle, kind, and sensible, but who knew that she would do things that hurt her one after another.

"Why did you harm me? Once, twice, three times, Lingbo, you and I have grown up together. I have always regarded you as my sister. Do you know how uncomfortable I feel?" Yun Yan stared at her with both eyes.

People who love her and betray her usually have only one ending, but this time, it was someone close to her.

Ling Bo lowered her head and buried her face so that no one could clearly see the expression on her face. Her tone was unexpectedly calm. She whispered: "I'm sorry, miss, I, I didn't want to, but..."

She gritted her teeth and cried, "If I don't promise the second lady, she will definitely harm my mother. I can't..." As she said that, she held her face and started crying.

Listening to this voice, Yun Yan closed his eyes slightly, and the expression on his face was not clear. The room was silent, and only the slight sobbing could be heard.

Shaking his head slightly, Yun Yan opened his eyes, looked at Ling Bo disappointedly, and said, "Is it just because of your mother? If it's because of your mother, you can tell me from the beginning. I said that this time,

I will definitely protect you." At this point, she suddenly paused. Lingbo lowered her face, but she could still see her eyelashes trembling slightly. She was afraid. After a long time, she said quietly, "It's because

him?"

He? When Lingbo heard the words, he suddenly looked at Yunyan. Her little face was full of panic. Her expression became more and more sad. She was stunned for a moment. She suddenly realized something. She knelt down and asked

He crawled a few steps forward, climbed to Yunyan's feet, pulled the hem of her skirt, and said plaintively: "Miss, no, it's not because of him. Everything is my fault. If you want to punish me, punish me."

A trace of sigh appeared on Yun Yan's cold face. He looked at Ling Bo at his feet and the panic in her eyes. Wasn't it for him? If not, why should she be so nervous? Why beg for punishment?

"Who is he?" Yun Yan looked at Ling Bo and asked further. She wanted to know who could make the kind and innocent Ling Bo in her memory learn to be vicious and harmful to others.

Upon hearing this, Ling Bo was stunned. She gritted her teeth and sat down on the ground limply. She lowered her head, her face was ashen, tears were streaming down her face, and she looked very miserable. She whispered: "Miss.

, I can’t say. I admit that I harmed you. You can kill or chop him into pieces. I just ask you not to ask about him anymore. In fact, you don’t know that Liu Molin threatens me like this every time.

I do things for her, but I can't help it. Ever since she found out what happened to me, I've been scared day and night. I'm afraid that the matter will be revealed. I often wonder if I die, will this matter end?

Well. Miss, if you can, please let me die and let him go. I just ask you to treat my mother well." As she said this, she kowtowed heavily to Yun Yan. She raised her head and looked at her firmly.

Hold her.

The handle? What handle? Yun Yan looked at Ling Bo in surprise. This matter seemed to be not as simple as she imagined. Ling Bo even gave up his life for that person. Did he even give up his mother? This is Ling Bo.

Did you mean love at that time? Looking at Ling Bo's determined look on the ground, Yun Yan said quietly: "Remember that time, you asked me, do I know what it feels like to like someone?" After a pause, she looked ahead, her eyes

With a hint of sadness in her voice, she took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Yes, I don't know, but at least I know that there are things to do and things not to do. There are many things in life that are more important than the love between men and women. Over the years,

, your mother has sacrificed a lot for you, and I know all the hardships you have endured in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Don't let down your mother's love for you."

"I'm sorry, it was Ling Bo who disappointed my mother and made my lady disappointed. Please don't tell my mother about this, and let Ling Bo do whatever he wants." Ling Bo knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and his eyes were filled with tears.

Sadness, since you have chosen, you can only stick to it.

With a chuckle, Yun Yan suddenly looked at Ling Bo. She didn't know why, but she did something that hurt her. Instead, she envied her. At least she could like someone without any scruples, even if she was timid and timid in the past.

She also threw them away. This was the bravest time she saw Ling Bo. But what about her? Yunyan clenched her palms. She knew since she was a child that the so-called love is just human desire. After getting it,

But abandonment and both are just uses. Otherwise, how could her mother have ended up like that back then. Sometimes, she would rather she was Ling Bo and could simply pursue one thing, but Yunyan is Yunyan after all.

She has no choice.

"Just pretend that this incident never happened, and you are not allowed to mention it in the future. I don't care about anything else. Just don't make Bishui sad. She treats you as her own sister." Yun Yan said suddenly, without looking at Ling.

"Bo," she sighed and said, "Aunt Rong is getting older. She can't stand the trouble. Whatever you do, you have to consider the consequences. Don't let her worry about you."

After hearing this, Ling Bo opened his mouth and looked at Yun Yan in shock. She no longer blamed her. She gritted her teeth and said guiltily: "Miss, why, why do you have to forgive me? I obviously..."

"Why? Oh, of course it's because you are Aunt Rong's daughter, Bishui's sister, and my sister. Okay, please step back. I'm a little tired." Yun Yan was leaning on the couch, closing her eyes and concentrating.

.

Ling Bo looked at Yun Yan gratefully, bowed to her, and said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, Miss." However, Yun Yan on the couch still closed his eyes in reverie, as if he hadn't heard anything.

With a "squeak" sound, the moment the door closed, Yun Yan suddenly opened her eyes. She looked at the empty room, which was full of desolation. There was a bit of deathly silence around it for some reason. She sighed heavily, she had

What kind of power does she have to interfere in other people's lives? She just hopes that Ling Bo can be truly happy and that the person she likes can really like her. If not, she will never let him go.

After a moment of silence, Yunyan stood up from the couch. Through the window, she looked at the night outside. The night was still dark. She gently gathered her clothes and sighed in her heart. It was almost time for them to talk.

I don't know how long it took, but the door opened again.

The room was dark, and after hearing the door being pushed open, a quiet voice sounded from inside the room, "You're here."

A footstep slowly approached, and a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the room. He glanced around and suddenly looked in one direction. He frowned and sat at the table.

"Bishui seems to be a lot happier in the past two days. It seems that you are the only one who can make her happy. I am afraid that she has forgotten me. You must invite me to your wedding reception in the future.

." Yun Yan looked at the black figure and said with a smile.

Hearing these words, Ji Lengxue's eyes tightened, and he hummed lowly but said nothing.

Regarding his silence, Yun Yan had always understood that he was not a very expressive person, but it was precisely because of this that Bishui was able to overpower him. This combination was quite good, at least Bishui would not be bullied.

"How was your investigation of the matter I entrusted you with earlier?" Yun Yan said suddenly, even in the dark night, her eyes still fell on the black figure impartially, as if she could penetrate the shadow.

Like a dark night, it reached straight to the bottom of his heart.

Upon hearing this, Ji Lengxue, who had a gloomy face, had a flash of doubt in his eyes, and he subconsciously asked: "What's going on?"

Yun Yan narrowed her eyes, and a serious look flashed across her eyes. However, just for a moment, a smile appeared on her face and she said: "It seems that you don't remember, but it doesn't matter, it's not a big deal. But next, I will

There's something else I need your help with."

Ji Lengxue glanced at Yun Yan in surprise, and asked lightly: "What's the matter?"

"You should have received the news over there. Because of Yang Ao's confession and the confessions of the officials who were investigated and punished, the emperor has murderous intentions towards Yang Ao. I am afraid that he will issue an imperial edict to behead him in the near future. But here

Before, some people would definitely not be able to bear the loneliness and take action in advance, so I need you to do me a favor, that is, send someone to sneak into those people." Yun Yan lowered his eyes and said calmly.

Sneaking into those people? Ji Lengxue's eyes were even more surprised, and he asked: "Why?"

"Because Yang Ao can't die now, he is still useful to me, so I will rob the prison tomorrow night, but I guess I can only take the people away while they are robbing the prison, otherwise even if I go early,

I'm afraid that people from Gao Qi outside will take advantage of the situation to attack, and it won't be easy for me to take them away by myself." Yun Yan replied, she glanced at Ji Lengxue and said indifferently, "If the people from Tingxue Tower can fool around.

Go inside, and when Gao Qi's people rob the prison, the pressure on me to take away Yang Ao will be less, after all, you also know that I can't use too much internal power."

Hearing this, Ji Lengxue nodded. He was suddenly about to say something, but when he glanced at Yun Yan, he suddenly paused. After a while, he said, "I'm afraid it's not easy for Gao Qi to sneak people in."

As if she could see Ji Lengxue's expression clearly, coldness suddenly appeared in Yunyan's eyes, the corner of her mouth curled up slightly, and she snorted: "You think I don't know, Gao Qi has been trying every means to contact Tingxue Lou during this period.

It’s just that you haven’t seen him.”

Ji Lengxue raised his eyes slightly, and a look of surprise flashed across his face. So she knew it?! That's right, after all, Tingxue Tower is one of her properties. He snorted lightly and said indifferently: "I really

I don’t want to have anything to do with the Gao family.”

"Actually, Leng Xue, you don't have to hide it from me. I already know that the person who wants to destroy the Gao family the most in this world should be you! This is a good opportunity, why do you want to miss it? Or, do you already have your plan?

?" Yun Yan chuckled, but his tone became increasingly cold.

The room became completely quiet, only the faint breathing of two people could be heard.

With a sigh, Ji Lengxue closed her eyes and finally said: "Since you know everything, I will listen to you this time."

"That's good." Yun Yan glanced at the black figure and said lightly.

The room became quiet again, and the two of them were silent again. Looking at Yun Yan opposite, although she couldn't see her expression, Ji Lengxue only felt that she was a little weird today. Although she was like this on weekdays, it was just that today

An invisible momentum makes people feel a sense of urgency in their hearts. She rarely does this. She only does this when something big happens. Could it be because of the incident between Yang Ao and Gao Qi?

"By the way, someone asked me to tell you something." Ji Lengxue suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the room.

After hearing this, Yun Yan said in surprise: "What are you talking about? Is it Chunqiao and the others?" She asked subconsciously. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it wasn't the case. After all, it had only been two days since the letter was sent, so it couldn't be so soon.

reply.

At this time, the man on the seat suddenly stood up and walked towards the door. Near the door, he stopped and said indifferently: "Feng Lingxuan asked me to tell you that unless it is absolutely necessary, never

Don't use your inner strength, this is his warning. But I know you won't listen."

Feng Lingxuan? Listening to this name, Yunyan was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't heard this name from someone's mouth for a long time. She slowly closed her eyes, and all the scenes from that time were in her mind.

In that dark night, her whole body was covered in blood, and there were people chasing her everywhere. They all treated her like a monster, and they wanted to get at her. She had not eaten or drank for three days and three nights, and her body was weak.
