It was clearly just a simple word, yet it seemed to take Luo Yi a long time to understand what it meant. The hand holding the cloth was shaking, and after a while, his fingers suddenly relaxed, and the piece of cloth gently slipped out from between her fingers.
The news couldn't reach the Innocent Medical Center yet, so Luo Yi was not too worried about her safety. Furthermore, long before the operation had begun, Xu Heng had already made arrangements for the future — —
She grabbed a piece of clothing from the bed and draped it over her shoulders, but before she left, she unknowingly turned her head back and smiled at Luo Yi who hadn't said a word since she was received, "What are you doing sitting there foolishly for, come over here!"
It was rare for Helian Rong to think like this for someone else, Liu Yin's heart softened and she replied yes with a soft voice. In the end, she even took the initiative to tiptoe to give him a kiss on her lips.
Liu Yin laughed involuntarily, and intentionally threw a flirtatious glance at him with her head raised. Then, she quickly left before Helian Rong could react, and once again pushed him out of the door.
"Alright," she said in a teasing tone. "I'll be waiting for you."
After saying that, she stuck out her tongue at him, and quickly withdrew her body and closed the door without waiting for Helian Rong's response.
Helian Rong's breath was stuck in his throat, but he did not say much in the end. In the end, he only nodded a little towards the reflection of Liu Yin's figure that was projected in the door and windows, and said in a low voice: "Watch how I torture you when I turn around."
Liu Yin also did not speak, she only turned around after seeing that his silhouette had completely disappeared from the bed.
The smile in her eyes had yet to fade, but her expression quickly turned serious.
Luo Yi had so many things she wanted to ask her, so she finally got rid of the Crown Prince who was obstructing him. She opened her mouth, but before he could speak, Liu Yin was the first to shake his head towards her, then walked to the bedside and pressed the hidden twists on the bed: "I know you have a lot of things that you want to say, but I'm not too clear on the details, go in and ask him."
"Him?" Luo Yi repeated herself in a daze, and various guesses about the identity of the person flashed across her mind, in the end, they uncontrollably stopped on top of a person who did not even dare to think about it – just in case … It was just that her plan had failed, and he took advantage of the chaos to escape, but she did not know why she could not return to the General's House, so she could only hide in the Drunk Dream Pavilion?
Once this idea appeared, it quickly grew in her mind like a bamboo shoot after a spring rain. Luo Yi thought of this seemingly unrealistic possibility, and anxiously walked forward with trembling steps, but immediately calmed down when she heard the voice inside clearly: "We have let Miss Luo down."
It wasn't him …
Luo Yi could not explain the emotions that flashed past her mind at that moment, but after rolling around in the wind, fire, and lightning, he finally fell into a dead silence.
It was as if he didn't even have the strength to interrogate them anymore, so he could only drag his ruined body along as he resigned himself to his fate.
"What did Liu Yin mean when she said that the plan failed? Didn't you figure out the layout of the Royal Tomb long ago? What happened? "
After a long while, Luo Yi finally spoke with a low voice. What made Liu Liangyun surprised was that she did not ask about Xu Heng's situation first.
Liu Liangyun probably came in a hurry because he didn't have time to bring his folding fan with him, but his habitual movement made him shake his wrist. When he realized that there was nothing in his hand, he slowly pulled it back.
Liu Liangyun paused. "His Majesty wasn't locked up in the imperial tomb at all."
"How could that be?" Luo Yi asked: "Didn't you provide the information? "Why would there be a mistake?"
"I did provide it, but we underestimated the quality of the medical service."
Liu Liangyun sighed softly, not caring about Luo Yi's suspicious gaze at all. She continued, "He was always very careful, in order to not reveal the true location of His Majesty, she placed heavy soldiers at various places. My men followed him for nearly half a month before they managed to discover the location of the imperial mausoleum.
"Recently, there haven't been any strangers entering or exiting the Royal Tomb. No wonder the Medical Examiner can be at ease not setting up the slightest amount of troops here."
Luo Yi did not sound like she was lying, but she had personally witnessed how good this person's acting was. She did not make any comment, and only pretended to change the topic carelessly after two seconds of silence: "What about him? He was so smart that even if he entered the Royal Tomb, she wouldn't be able to see the problem. Moreover, his Qing Gong was so good, so it shouldn't be difficult for a single person to escape, right? But why didn't he get out? "
In fact, no one mentioned Xu Heng's situation to Luo Yi, but for some reason, she knew. Hence, he saved this step and directly asked Liu Liangyun why Xu Heng was unable to escape the imperial tomb.
She trusted Xu Heng, and trusted his abilities, but she had no proof of this trust. She only trusted him with her two silvers.
"The archer hurt the old wound on his arm." Liu Liangyun answered calmly, as if he had already thought of the answer, "That's why he fell off the wall …"
"How do you know?"
However, the other party's reaction was also very quick. Hearing her question, he replied without hesitation: "My people are planted in the Emperor Tomb, at the critical moment, I can fish in the river for them and give them a hand, but Xu Heng … As soon as he fell off the wall, he was surrounded by guards. My people couldn't help it even if they wanted to. "
He raised his head and looked at Luo Yi, not dodging at all.
Luo Yi looked at him for a moment, then shifted his gaze away first.
Liu Liangyun's reply could be said to be flawless. He didn't even pause when he answered her. His tone was natural and quick as he answered all her questions, but …
Too fast.
Liu Liangyun answered these questions almost without thinking, as if the answers were just on the tip of his tongue. In this situation, it was more like he was reciting the answers behind his back than answering the questions. However, if it was Liu Liangyun who betrayed them …
Luo Yi felt a headache.
Luo Yi could roughly guess why she was still safe until now — — With the doctor seat outside the city, no matter how fast the news of the attack on the imperial mausoleum would spread to him, it would still take half a day. But Liu Liangyun had plenty of ways to make this half a day go longer than a day, and in that time, Liu Yin naturally had ways to make Helian Rong take the initiative to take her away from the General's Estate.
Even if they were found by the medical examiner, it would be fine.
Transferring prisoners without permission was a serious crime, especially when it came from someone as important as the king of a country. Even if there was the reason for the capture of spies, the method of the Liefeng Priest still cheated of Jun Wu Yi, so he would definitely not dare to speak the truth with Helian Mu Da or Helian Rong. Although Xu Heng was convicted in the end, and could only be placed as a "trespasser", and not a "spy from an enemy nation", he was still far from a crime that could involve all nine clans. So, even if Helian Rong took him away, the Liefeng Priest had no reason to take him away openly. Most importantly, Helian Rong didn't know about the relationship between him and Xu Heng, and the low level doctor didn't know about the relationship between him and Liu Yin, so no one would suspect Liu Yin …
Wait a minute!
Luo Yi suddenly thought of something, and her face changed. The Liefeng Priest knew that Liu Yin was related to him, the scented sachet from yesterday was delivered in her name!
Before he could even think about how to settle this matter, Liu Liangyun, who was standing opposite him, seemed to have already guessed what he was thinking and replied slowly, "He doesn't know."
For a moment, Luo Yi could not tell whether the other party was answering her question or not. However, before she could ask further, a thought flashed through her mind. She remembered the two guards at the entrance that Helian Rong saw when he brought her out of the general's mansion.
It was not the same person who came to deliver the scented sachet yesterday.
The other was also very unfamiliar.
Luo Yi's memory had always been slightly better than that of an ordinary person's. She probably wouldn't show it normally, but as long as she thought about it carefully, she could recall any of the details, such as Xu Heng's actions of folding the paper and the two guards she saw at the door of the General's Estate when she entered.
"What about them?"
"Kill him." Liu Liangyun was indifferent to it all, as if two lives were just like ants in his eyes.
He had never really paid attention to Luo Yi before, but now that he had a true conversation with him, he suddenly felt that this person was exactly the same as the person Xu Heng was talking about.
"She's very smart," At that time, Xu Heng did not know what he was doing, but he stuffed an extremely ugly money bag into his pocket. He looked unsatisfied, and then he went deeper two levels into the clothes: "I just can't be bothered to think about it. "If one day I'm not here anymore, you'd better be careful when you talk to her …"
At that time, he was filled with disdain towards Xu Heng's words. He recalled the few times he had met Xu Heng, the girl who kept his head down without saying a word, and was occasionally distracted by things, thinking that Xu Heng must have been bewitched by his beauty.
What was there to be nervous about, a little girl who wasn't familiar with the affairs of the world?
However, after what happened today, Liu Liangyun couldn't help but change his mind.
This person could quickly figure out a character line without knowing anything, as well as the pros and cons within it. He could even figure out all of the logic behind his casual words … Liu Liangyun thought, maybe Xu Heng was right, it was just that because she was too reliant on someone, she unconsciously retracted his corner.
Before this, Liu Liangyun was unsatisfied that Xu Heng had handed over the second half of the plan to Luo Yi. He had even planned to hide the truth from Xu Heng to find someone more suitable to his demands to do this task.
A trace of an unfathomable smile flashed across his face, but it disappeared in a flash. Combined with the dim candlelight in the secret room, even Luo Yi, who was the closest to him, did not notice.
"Do you want to see him again?"
Luo Yi suddenly fixed her gaze on Liu Liangyun's face.
Liu Liangyun shrugged and said nonchalantly, "There's no way the Liefeng Priest will let him leave the Northern Tribes alive. I can't help you with that, but …"
He said, "I can find a way for you to meet him."
I can figure out a way for you to meet him...
These words were like a flower blooming on a cliff, it had a fatal attraction, Luo Yi could not even describe how her heart had rushed down the cliff in an instant after hearing these words, but was pulled back by her reason, finally forming a suspended image of someone grinding things down.
To be honest, she didn't really trust Liu Liangyun.
This person made up too much of Xu Heng's plans, to the point where he could move his entire body at any time. Xu Heng's mishap this time could be said to be an accident, but after thinking about it carefully, every single link that they connected to cause this accident involved his participation. From the initial address, to the person who said that he wanted to help him escape. However, just as she suspected, if Liu Liangyun really betrayed them, why would he still let her and Liu Yin stay here forever? Even if the most important prisoner in this robbery case was Xu Heng, since he had already been captured, why did he deliberately give him the chance to see him? Was it because he didn't manage to get anything out of Xu Heng? Then what information did he want to use himself to obtain from Xu Heng?
Luo Yi felt that his brain had never moved so fast before. She separated the chaotic and disorganized parts of his brain little by little, but no matter how she looked at it, she couldn't figure out Liu Liangyun's real motive for doing this.
From beginning to end, there was a dead knot at the center of that ball of hemp. She could not untie it, and did not know that the name of the dead knot was Xu Heng.
"Alright."
She finally raised her head as if she had made up her mind. With determination flashing in her eyes, she said, "Then I'll have to trouble Lord Liu."
