The Regent's little feral cat bites again

Chapter 205 Revisiting Dali Temple

"General Du, are you teaching me how to do things?" Xuan Yinruo raised his eyes to look at Du Zhuo's cold face, "Do you think that if the emperor sends you here, you will really become the boss of Lanzhou?"

Du Zhuo paused, and slowly lowered his eyes: "This subordinate dare not."

The one in front of her, apart from her status as a secret talker in Lanzhou, is the only remaining daughter of the Xuan family, and most of the Amber Army misses this daughter.

The emperor has also warned many times not to disobey Xuan Yinruo in the open, how could he forget these?

Xuan Yinruo lowered his eyes and played with his fingers lazily: "It's good that you know it. Let's put aside the matter about the rebel forces in the city. If you are bored, you can go and find out what other forces in the court are available that do not belong to Gu Chengyuan. Make a list and give it to me."

Du Zhuo looked a little hesitant, but still nodded: "Yes, this subordinate understands."

Xuan Yinruo raised his eyes: "If you have nothing to do, go back."

Du Zhuo pursed his lips, took a deep look at Xuan Yinruo, and finally left the room.

After Du Zhuo left, Mo Xuan couldn't help giving Xuan Yinruo a thumbs up: "Sister Xuan is amazing."

Xuan Yinruo's face was not so good-looking, and he glanced at Mo Xuan: "You have sent someone to watch him for the past two days. I gave such an insult today, and he will definitely inform Zong Wei, so that he cannot let the news out to Lan. State."

Mo Xuan nodded: "I understand."

Xuan Yinruo got up now, and said lightly: "I have to go somewhere later, you go back."

"Where are you going? Do you want me to accompany you?"

Xuan Yinruo thought of his performance last time, and gave him a disgusted look: "Dali Temple. I can go alone."

Mo Xuan obviously also thought of his embarrassment last time, touched his nose: "Oh. Then be careful."
-
After burning an incense stick, it was completely dark. Xuan Yinruo changed into night clothes and walked on the road. When she passed a deserted intersection, she raised her head and yelled somewhere: "Yanlin."

In less than two seconds, Chongwei Yanlin, who was dressed in black and had an abnormally white complexion, appeared beside Xuan Yinruo.

He hasn't appeared for a long time since the Anping military camp. Although he has been secretly following Xuan Yinruo, but with Gu Chengyuan's presence, he has never been able to get close.

Yan Lin always had a bloodless expression on his face: "Master Xuan."

Xuan Yinruo looked at him from top to bottom, only felt that he seemed to be thinner again, and asked: "Is your body better?"

She didn't forget that last time at the gate of Lanzhou City, several insect guards stumbled and looked for blood in a horrible state.

Yan Lin lowered his head: "It's much better. It's just... because I couldn't get in touch with Master Xuan some time ago, the master cut off our medicine for half a month."

The "master" in his mouth naturally refers to Zong Wei.

Xuan Yinruo raised her eyebrows, she felt sad that Yan Lin's face seemed to be paler than before, and his figure was also weakened.

She sighed, reached out and patted Yan Lin's shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work."

Yan Lin tilted his head, as if he didn't quite understand the meaning of these four words, finally he just lowered his eyes and said indifferently: "It's not hard work."

Xuan Yinruo naturally knew Zongwei's method, these insect guards did not know what method was used to train them, and they had long lost the consciousness of normal people.

She didn't say any more, just said: "I'll go to Dali Temple to inquire about some things later, you can watch for me outside, don't let anyone in."

Anyway, Yan Lin will follow her no matter what, instead of letting him follow her secretly, it's better to let him come out openly and act as a lookout, why not do it?
Yan Lin thought for a while, the master meant to ask him to report Xuan Yinruo's daily action trajectory, and he would do as he was told, so he answered without thinking for a long time.

In Dali Temple, Xuan Yinruo has been familiar with this place for a long time, and coupled with the information seen in the study of the Prince Regent's Mansion, he also knows Lin Tingran's prisoner by heart. Therefore, without wasting time, he went straight to his destination and found him soon. the cell where she was held.

With Yanlin present, he easily dealt with the two guards guarding the gate. Xuan Yinruo ordered him to keep watch outside, and broke in alone.

This cell was obviously much more tightly guarded than the cell where Yu Xiuxian was detained last time. Xuan Yinruo was almost discovered, but he confiscated him and killed a guard directly.

She bit her lip, and didn't care so much anymore, she dealt with it briefly, and then walked deeper.

In the innermost cell, a woman with disheveled hair and a prison uniform was paralyzed on the ground with her hands and feet bound.

Her face was gray and covered with dirt, and she couldn't even distinguish her face. Her eyes were tightly closed, her limbs were curled up, and her wrists and ankles were covered with red marks from the chains. She looked extremely miserable.

Xuan Yinruo walked over and squatted down, unable to tell whether the woman was dead or alive, she stretched out her hand to shake her, and softly called her name: "Lin Tingran, Lin Tingran."

Lin Tingran's closed pupils moved, but still did not open them.

Xuan Yinruo frowned, and could only report his family name first: "I came from Dongyang, I came here to ask you something."

Lin Tingran's eyeballs moved again, and he opened them very slowly, his eyes were blurred and very unclear.

Seeing a person being tortured like this, Xuan Yinruo couldn't bear it in her heart, but after staying in the feudal society for a long time, her heart seemed to have become much colder. Seeing this scene, apart from sympathy, she couldn't bear it. extra thoughts.

Lin Tingran opened his lips, apparently he hadn't spoken for a long time, his voice was hoarse and stiff: "You are..."

Xuan Yinruo took out the token from his bosom that he used to deal with Yu Xiuxian before, and said nonsense solemnly: "I came from Dongyang to take up the post of imperial censor. The emperor heard that you were arrested, so he came here to let me see you .It's just that some time ago I was delayed because of some things, so I came late. Are you... all right?"

Xuan Yinruo's acting skills have always been superb, and at this moment, in Lin Tingran's eyes, he really looks like a compatriot who is worried about his condition and safety, looking at her eagerly.

Lin Tingran's tears fell down without warning: "It's useless, you came in vain. My limbs and tendons have been crippled, and now... I am no different from a crippled person. I will never... never go back gone."

For some reason, Lin Tingran's last words suddenly moved Xuan Yinruo greatly. Why didn't she struggle desperately in this power vortex because she couldn't go back?
She collected her thoughts, and asked tentatively, "Then... have you leaked any information to them?"

Lin Tingran did not suspect him, and shook his head firmly: "Don't worry, my lord, I didn't say anything. I will be Dongyang's soul until my death."

Hearing this sentence, Xuan Yinruo felt a little uncomfortable, but this woman did nothing wrong, and she ended up in such a tragic end entirely because of her different regime and beliefs.
