Chapter 150: Unruly
After hearing this, Du Lin fell into deep thought. He raised his head and stared at the three people in front of him.
After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "So, please tell me, gentlemen, who is trustworthy? And who should not be trusted? Do you think that just a few words from you can ensure the safety of the hundreds of people in my mansion?"
There was a hint of helplessness and doubt in his voice, and he seemed to be very confused about the situation. Then, he paused for a moment and continued, "We are just using each other.
You came to me only because of Li Ziyan's matter. But if you want me to tell you who is in frequent contact with Han Chi and others and what they discuss, the premise must be to ensure the safety of my wife and children. Otherwise, there is no point in talking about anything."
At this time, Zhou Aoyang snapped his fingers lightly, and then said confidently: "The people lying in ambush outside the door are General Zhao and Marquis Guangping's secret guards.
The two secret guards under their command are well-organized and well-trained, and their strength is far stronger than the imperial guards in the palace. With such a powerful force guarding here, do you still think it is not enough? " His words revealed a strong confidence and confidence.
After saying this, Du Lin stepped out of the house and looked up. He saw more than a dozen figures standing in the courtyard like ghosts. These people were dressed in red and black clothes, with sharp scimitars hanging from their waists. They looked about the same age as the three people in the house. Seeing this scene, Du Lin's doubts disappeared - he knew very well how powerful the secret guards under Zhao Nian and Li Yin were. Everyone in the Great Wei knew about it.
Everyone was salivating over this mysterious power, but they were helpless because those secret guards were loyal to their master and had no second thoughts. At this time, Xu Wenhe asked, "Master Du, do you still trust these secret guards?"
Du Lin nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, I trust you! In that case, please follow me inside." After that, he turned around and led the three people into the house.
After entering the room, Du Lin took out three wooden boxes from his arms, gently placed them on the table, and then said to the three people with a serious face: "There is a note in each of these three boxes, and it states the name of the person you need to find.
These three people were the ones who had close ties with Handan Chi, and Minister Li was blamed for this because he accidentally discovered their conspiracy with Handan Chi.
Late at night, everything was quiet, Zhao Junning quietly stepped into the prison again. At this moment, Li Ziyan was concentrating on studying the map and did not notice that the cell door had been gently pushed open.
Zhao Junning walked carefully to the cell door and gently signaled the cell guard to leave. Then, she walked into the cell quietly and put the food box on the ground. At first, Li Ziyan did not notice these movements, but just nodded slightly to show that he understood.
However, when he smelled the familiar scent of tassel flowers, his heart was moved. He raised his head and his eyes met with Zhao Junning's. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "My wife..."
Then, Li Ziyan quickly stood up, helped Zhao Junning sit down, and asked with concern: "Why are you here so late?" There was a hint of confusion and worry in his voice.
Zhao Junning smiled and replied, "I brought you some food specially. This is fish soup and grilled meat made by my mother-in-law and mother. It's still hot, so eat it while it's hot." As she spoke, she opened the lid of the food box, and immediately, an enticing aroma filled the air.
As soon as Li Ziyan got close to Zhao Junning's soft body, it was as if all the strength in his body was drained away. He collapsed limply in her warm embrace, mumbling, "My dear, you are so kind to me. If you weren't by my side, I really don't know how I would have survived this difficult prison life."
After hearing what he said, Zhao Junning couldn't help but said in a light voice: "Li Ziyan, you are becoming more and more out of character! I heard that the Ninth Princess once came to visit you. Could it be that the Ninth Princess is still thinking about you?" There was a hint of blame and a bit of jealousy in her tone.
Li Ziyan's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he quickly explained: "My lady, please don't misunderstand me! She did come to see me, but I have already declined her kindness. In my heart, only my lady and my father are the most important.
You will definitely find a way to rescue me from the cage. But I, Li Ziyan, am just an ordinary person with limited space in my heart. Apart from my wife, there is no room for anyone else.
So what about that high and mighty princess? Even if she is of noble status, if I don't like her, I don't like her. In this life, I, Li Ziyan, am destined to stay with my lady and never leave her. " At the end, he held Zhao Junning's hand tightly, his eyes firm and affectionate.
Li Ziyan spoke love words fluently and effortlessly, and every word lingered in Zhao Junning's ears like sweet words. However, these words made Zhao Junning feel an inexplicable sadness in her heart, her eyes gradually moistened, and she blushed unconsciously.
Li Ziyan keenly noticed the change in Zhao Junning, raised his head, and his eyes met her red eyes. He panicked immediately, and quickly reached out to hold her cheeks, and said softly: "Don't cry, I... I am most afraid of seeing you cry, please don't cry, my Ning'er." There was a trace of trembling and heartache in his voice.
Zhao Junning suddenly laughed and tightly held Li Ziyan's hands that were on her face: "Silly boy, I'm not crying, it's just... I just think you are too silly and too good, how can I bear to let you be taken away by that princess?" Her smile revealed a firmness and determination.
At this moment, Zhao Junning thought to herself, "Even if I no longer have a noble status in this life, Li Ziyan must belong to me! No matter what the cost, I must protect this relationship."
Li Ziyan's heart was filled with mixed emotions. He realized that until this moment, he had never truly believed that Zhao Junning had indeed experienced rebirth. She must have gone through hardships along the way. He secretly vowed that he would never let her suffer so much again. Those who did evil would eventually receive the punishment they deserved, and this was just the beginning.
