Lin Xingwei followed Luo Fu to the foot of Luting Mountain. There was a thatched hut at the bottom of the slope, and several masked and unmasked soldiers kept walking and patrolling.

Luo Fu said: "They are right here. Those with gray armor and no masks are soldiers of King Yingchuan."

"Are you sure you saw Chen Xinan and not King Yingchuan?" Lin Xingwei asked in a deep voice.

Luo Fu was very firm, and said: "I can see clearly from the mountain, it is General Wei and Chen Xinan who came, there is no one else."

With so many people guarding them, they couldn't get close. The two tied the horses to a secluded place. Lin Xingwei straightened the veiled hat to make sure it wouldn't fall off. Luo Fu took out a veil from his sleeve and covered his face. The two went around to the back of the house and climbed up a small slope. Luo Fu took Lin Xingwei's arm and jumped up, lightly landing on the roof of the thatched hut.

Lin Xingwei looked at Luo Fu in shock through the veiled hat, a little unbelievable that he still had such abilities.

Luo Fu was very calm, as if nothing had happened, gently peeling away the thatch on the roof, revealing the rafters, from the gaps in the rafters, you can just see everything inside the house.

In the room, Wei Mingji and Chen Xinan sat facing each other in front of the desk. Chen Xinan was wearing a deep tongue red dress, and the ruffled jacket had a big opening, revealing a charming collarbone, which was three points gorgeous, five points charming, and two points vulgar.

Wei Mingji's attire was the same as yesterday's, still wearing a black tunic robe, black jade crown, and black lacquer hair, so it's hard to see what kind of expressions the two of them have at the moment.There were two or three small dishes and wine on the table.Looking at the dishes on the plate, it seems that it has just started.Behind Wei Mingji was a sandalwood bed with a white gauze hanging on the top.

Are they planning to cuddle and sleep after drinking and eating?Lin Xingwei just wanted to know what kind of deal was going on between Wei Mingji and Chen Xinan, not to see how they were struggling.

Wei Mingji said: "I handed over the things to the county lord as agreed, we have settled our grievances, and the county lord will not bother me again in the future."

how?Hearing this, Wei Mingji seems like an upright gentleman?Lin Xingwei couldn't help cursing.

Chen Xinan smiled sweetly, raised her white and slender hands and held up the wine cup to toast Wei Mingji, and a brocade box under her hand was exposed, it was Lin Xingwei's brocade box with Secret Order Pei, she and Cao Yi gave the Secret Order Pei as a return gift yesterday Wei Mingji, today Wei Mingji changed hands to Chen Xinan.

What the hell are they plotting?A huge doubt arose in Lin Xingwei's heart, and she couldn't help moving closer to the gap to listen carefully.

Chen Xinan said: "General, don't speak so harshly, if you have no affection for me, you won't help me either."

Seeing that Wei Mingji didn't take her drink, he put it back on the case angrily, "Why can't General Wei let go of Princess Ning? She has already discussed marriage with the youngest son of the Cao family, and there is no chance for General Wei in this life. And I will never let you go in this life." Will betray the general," she put her hand on her chest, "my heart is always with the general, why can't the general see it?"

Lin Xingwei couldn't see Wei Mingji's expression, he just watched him drink the wine that Chen Xinan just gave him, and said loudly: "There is something about Princess Ning, I don't need you to remind me, what happens between me and her has nothing to do with you. "

Wei Mingji put down the empty wine cup, Chen Xinan put her dog's paws on it, and rubbed them carefully on Wei Mingji's fingers, "Is it true that the general can't see me?" The voice was soft and soul-stirring. .

"How are you, it has nothing to do with me." Wei Mingji's voice was very cold, so cold that it made people tremble, he withdrew his hand from Chen Xinan's hand, and continued: "Your Majesty ordered you to contemplate behind closed doors for three months, and now it's only been more than two months Just run out, and you won’t be afraid of hearing it in His Majesty’s ears again.”

No matter what Wei Mingji said, Chen Xinan greeted her with a smile. She said: "I haven't seen the general for a long time, and I really miss him so much. As soon as I saw the general's letter, I couldn't wait to come here. Last time I acted erratically." , someone took the handle, this time you and I meet outside the city, no one will know."

Lin Xingwei snorted coldly, but unfortunately, he was caught again.But now she has no reason to meddle in their business, what they like to do.

Lin Xingwei listened for a long time, but the two of them didn't say anything about the use of Chen Xinan's request for the secret order Pei. The sun had already set, and if they didn't go back, the city gate might be locked.

Lin Xingwei raised his body, stopped listening, and whispered, "Luo Fu, we're going back."

If they are found out by their people, they will still suffer in the end. Since they can't hear what they want to hear, they should go first.

Perhaps the thatch was damp, and Lin Xingwei's feet were wet and slippery. The two of them finally made noise on the roof.

As soon as Luo Fu and Lin Xingwei jumped off the roof, they were surrounded by people from Wei Mingji and Chen Xinan.

One of them was masked and the other was wearing a veiled hat. Wei Mingji's people didn't recognize them. It wasn't until they were taken into the hut and Wei Mingji took off the veiled hat that Lin Xingwei showed his true colors.

The four eyes met, full of astonishment, the air was quiet, no one dared to make a sound for a while.

Chen Xinan's complexion suddenly became gloomy and terrifying, and he asked, "Why is Princess Youning here?"

Wei Mingji asked Zuoqiu Zhi and Bao Shang who escorted them in, "Are you sure there are only two of them, master and servant, and no one else?"

Zuo Qiuzhi replied: "Return to the general, I led people to patrol around, but I didn't find anyone else."

There was no expression on Wei Mingji's face, he turned to Chen Xinan and said, "Miss Chen, go back first, I will take care of Princess Ning's affairs, and I promise not to spread today's matter."

Chen Xinan glared at Lin Xingwei angrily, bumped Lin Xingwei's shoulder and stepped out of the room, leading her people away.

"You all go down too." Wei Mingji said.

Bao Shang pushed Luo Fu out, and Zuo Qiuzhi closed the door after going out, leaving the space for Lin Xingwei and Wei Mingji.

Wei Mingji stared at Lin Xingwei with sharp eagle-like eyes. Before he could speak, Lin Xingwei was frightened. Her palms were sweating profusely on her back. There seemed to be a stone hanging from her chest, which made her unable to breathe. She instinctively walked slowly towards the door. Turning around suddenly to pull the latch, the door was closed from the outside, and could only be pulled half a crack, but could not be fully opened.

At this moment, it would be great if she were Monkey King, and she could turn into a fluttering moth and fly out from the crack of the door.

"Come here!" Wei Mingji yelled loudly, clamped Lin Xingwei's wrist like iron tongs, dragged her to the desk and knelt down.

Wei Mingji sat across from her, where Chen Xinan sat just now. Lin Xingwei knew that it was useless to resist, so he also sat upright, with his hands on his knees, quietly waiting for Wei Mingji to say something.

Breaking through the secret between him and Chen Xinan today, I'm afraid I'm going to die.Or they will drag her to Shangdu Mansion to torture her and ask her how much she has heard.Taking advantage of the fact that the situation is still safe, she is ready to answer every question without any spine.

"You followed me when I left the city?" Wei Mingji narrowed his eyebrows and revealed a sharper cold light.

Wei Mingji is also not sure, the people under him are all ears and eyesight, if someone follows them, they will definitely find out.

"No, no, we were visiting Luting Mountain. We saw you and Chen Xinan entering this thatched hut one after the other on the top of the mountain, so... came." Lin Xingwei secretly glanced at Wei Mingji, no matter what his reasons were. Well, it's not a very upright move to listen to someone's wall.

Wei Mingji looked up at the imperceptible small hole on the roof, and asked again: "You heard... what did you see?"

Lin Xingwei raised his face and let out a dry laugh, "I heard Chen Xinan complain that the general couldn't see her goodness... I knew Chen Xinan's thoughts about the general before. The general doesn't have to worry, I won't spread gossip about the two of you."

Wei Mingji smiled, his eyes darkened, "You probably won't have the chance to spread gossip again, you broke me and gave the secret order to Chen Xinan, so I can't keep you." He put his hands on his waist touch his long sword.

Lin Xingwei hurriedly got up, took a few steps back, and shouted: "You can't kill me, Zhi Ang and my cousin are waiting for me nearby, if they don't wait for me to go back, they won't let it go."

Lin Xingwei's heart was about to pop out of his chest, and he said incoherently, "Lord Cao's troops are also nearby, you won't be able to escape even if you kill me..."

Wei Mingji saw that Lin Xingwei was so frightened that his face was pale and livid, and he moved his hand away from the hilt of his sword. He stood up and walked towards Lin Xingwei step by step indifferently. If you let me go, I swear on my late father, I will never tell what happened today!"

Swearing on a living person is always a bit of a shame, but it's best to swear on a dead person, Lin Xingwei thought.

Wei Mingji's expression was gloomy, and he said indifferently: "Even if you are concerned about the safety of your family and won't say it, there is no guarantee that Luo Fu next to you will not reveal it. Last time, he broke my good deed, which caused you to divorce and troubled me. He lost his face, was ridiculed by his colleagues, and was fined to go to Hexi to blow sand for a month, and today he came to spoil my good deeds, do you think I can let him go?"

"Didn't you say you were going to fight in Hexi long ago, but the Holy Majesty told you to leave early, and Luo Fu can't be blamed." Lin Xingwei retorted softly.

Seeing Wei Mingji's dark eyes after refuting, Lin Xingwei raised three fingers, and hurriedly said: "I swear on my late father, Luo Fu has the strongest mouth, he won't say anything, you don't want to kill him."

Wei Mingji raised his eyebrows, "The secret decree is a big deal, and the son of Prince Chu died because of it, and your father's death is also related to it. If you leak what happened today, many people's lives will be lost. I can't I believe you just because you swear on your dead father!"

His hand reached for the hilt at his waist again, and pulled out half an inch from the scabbard.

Lin Xingwei quickly pressed his sword-drawing hand, wept bitterly, and begged urgently: "I won't say anything,...Luo Fu didn't see Secret Order Pei,...he didn't know there was such a thing as Secret Order Pei , for the sake of my taking the initiative to hand over the secret order to you...forgive us...we will never tell the story of today...go out from here, I just pretend that I don't know you..."

It's hard to live again, she really doesn't want to die, she just wants to live in peace and stability, and doesn't want to get entangled in those unclear right and wrong.If she survived today, she would no longer be curious, and she would definitely stay behind closed doors and live her own life.

It's also strange that she didn't take care of watching the sky these two days. If she could calculate that she would meet Wei Mingji when she went out today, she wouldn't come out.

"No one in the capital doesn't know your past, how can you pretend that you don't know me? If you avoid me, you will make people guess!" Wei Mingji raised his face and lowered his eyes to look at her, with a sharp tone and sharp gaze. Lin Xingwei had nowhere to hide.

"Then, what should we do then?" Lin Xingwei was extremely flustered, but he was still able to think normally. What he said was contradictory. Couldn't these unpleasant pasts make her avoid him?Up to now, she didn't dare to refute and anger him, she could only follow his will and say that life-saving is the first condition.

"It's better like this." Wei Mingji put away his sword and stood up straight, "Leave me that filigree inlaid turquoise bracelet on your wrist as collateral, and I'll let you go."

Without even thinking about it, Lin Xingwei simply took off the filigree inlaid turquoise bracelet and stuffed it into Wei Mingji's hands. It was quite worthwhile to exchange the lives of two people with one bracelet.

Wei Mingji raised the bracelet in his hand and looked at it carefully, and said: "This bracelet was given to you by the empress before. There are countless things that come out of the palace. If you don't tell today's events, you will be safe." , If you say it out, I will throw this bracelet, and say that you have no more love for me, and you gave me the secret order, it doesn't matter if I die, I want you to accompany me in the underworld."

"You blackmail me?" Lin Xingwei raised his eyes and looked at him fiercely. Tears were still shining in his eyes, but he couldn't hide his raging anger. When did I fall in love with you?"

"Since you are ruthless to me, why did you come to eavesdrop and peek when you found out that Chen Xinan and I entered this hut?" Wei Mingji asked coldly.

"That's because..." Lin Xingwei was so angry that she didn't know what to say. It was because she found out that there was something tricky between them. She wanted to know what he and Chen Xinan were plotting. It was all because of curiosity, not because of ruthlessness .

"If you don't agree, then I'll kill you." Wei Mingji was about to draw his sword again, Lin Xingwei hurriedly hugged his arm, and said, "Okay, I promise, you don't have to threaten me, for the sake of the lives of the whole family, I will kill you." I will also promise you not to speak out, general, don’t worry, Luo Fu and I will never speak out.”

"Then how do you explain today's events to Cao Yi?"

Lin Xingwei let go of Wei Mingji, wiped away his tears, and said: "General, don't worry, Luo Fu and I didn't tell them where we were going when we left, and I won't tell him when we go back."

The corner of Wei Mingji's mouth turned up secretly, "I know you won't say it, don't you need an excuse? It's getting late, and it's inevitable that you and I will go to the city together. If he bumps into you, how will you explain it?"

"Ah? Then the general will go first. Luo Fu and I will stay in the mountains for one night. There is a foot shop nearby." Lin Xingwei said in a panic.

"If you stay in the mountains for one night, you won't be afraid that Mrs. Hou will be in a hurry? Or, I'll knock you two out and say that you met a thief and were rescued by me passing by." Wei Mingji slowly approached Lin Xingwei as he spoke.

"No!" Lin Xingwei couldn't help but raised his arms to protect his head. It doesn't matter how serious a soldier's attack is, let alone knocked out, what if he is killed?
"How about...how about you knocking me out and saying you two saved me?" Wei Mingji put down Lin Xingwei's arm, and looked into her eyes with burning eyes.

Lin Xingwei asked angrily: "Can't we not be knocked out? It's not difficult to explain. The general will go first, and we will follow. Zhi Ang trusts me, so he may not question the ambiguity between you and me... "

Wei Mingji turned his back and said negatively: "Then let's all stay in the mountains for one night, so that they will suspect that you and I don't know."

Lin Xingwei: "..."

Bao Shang reported from outside the door: "General, the Cao family's convoy is coming here."

Wei Mingji pondered for a while, and said, "Open the door."
