The man's big hands held the curve of her lower back, and his voice sounded low and magnetic in the shadow: "The reaction was very fast this time, how did you guess it?"
Xiao Lingyue choked and became furious: "Can you stop making such surprise attacks every time?"
It was also in the alley outside the residence before, and now it's here again.
Is he still addicted to sneak attacks?
The man's voice was a bit innocent: "I didn't know it was you before I took action."
"Didn't you know this during the fight?" Xiao Lingyue gritted her teeth and raised her head to glare at him, "How dare you reach out and hug me? You don't want your life?"
What if she didn't recognize it and was really cruel?
Zhan Beihan didn't take it seriously and said with a low smile: "Is the dagger useful?"
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
"People inside, come out!" A sharp shout suddenly sounded.
Remember http://m in one second.
More than a dozen guardsmen who had just stepped off the cliff surrounded the stone pile, with the blades in their hands pointed at the corners of the stone pile, and their expressions were extremely fierce.
Xiao Lingyue looked up at the man: "Did you bring someone here?"
"There are two hundred guardsmen on the other side of the imperial mausoleum, and most of them are on the cliff." Zhan Beihan finished speaking briefly and let go of his hand.
Xiao Lingyue stood firm again, thoughtfully.
Zhan Beihan immediately walked out of the pile of stones and said calmly: "Don't panic, we are on our own."
"Your Majesty!"
The group of guards who were facing a formidable enemy were surprised and delighted, "My lord, are you okay? The news of the fight just now was..."
Zhan Beihan interrupted: "It was the people arranged by the king who came here. We happened to bump into each other. It's nothing serious. You go check the situation nearby first and report anything."
The guards immediately responded: "Yes!"
After more than a dozen people dispersed, Xiao Lingyue walked out from the shadow of the pile of rocks, holding the broken wooden mask in her hand.
Zhan Beihan glanced at it: "Why are you still holding this thing?"
Xiao Lingyue curled her lips and threw the scrapped mask aside: "Isn't it broken by you? I thought I could cover it up at least."
Now it's good, but it's useless before it works, and it's a waste of effort.
"You have mobilized all the guards. The imperial mausoleum has been dealt with? How many people have been arrested?" she asked Zhan Beihan.
Xiao Lingyue understood immediately just by Zhan Beihan's words "guarding the imperial mausoleum".
The guard army is an army dedicated to guarding the imperial tombs. They are small in number, only about 10,000 people. Under normal circumstances, they are not allowed to leave the area around the imperial tombs.
Even King Xiang has no authority to command them.
Being able to mobilize the guards here proves that Zhan Beihan must have disclosed his identity. Only his identity can make the guards obey orders unconditionally.
And disclosing the identity means that all the investigations that should be investigated have been completed.
People were arrested and evidence was found.
Just waiting to finally close the net.
That's why Xiao Lingyue asked this question.
"All of them, not a few." Zhan Beihan turned to look at her, "Where are you?"
"The leader of Li Zhai's caravan, Zhong Ronggui, is afraid of death and has promised to cooperate with the government. I killed one of the three dead men, one was imprisoned in the county government, and the other was not moved in Li Zhai, but he also exposed
Can't afford any trouble."
Xiao Lingyue said lightly.
She and Zhan Beihan had no prior discussion at all, nor did they make any plans.
After the two people separated after a dispute, they went their separate ways.
But maybe it's due to some strange tacit understanding, or mutual understanding and trust.
Both Xiao Lingyue and Zhan Beihan can roughly guess what the other party is doing. They only need to do their own thing and don't have to worry about someone on the other side holding them back.
In the end, as expected, both of them found their way to the cliff, which can be regarded as a different kind of journey to the same destination.
"but."
Xiao Lingyue paused and said somewhat depressedly: "I didn't find the antidote to the poisonous needle in the caravan. According to Zhong Ronggui, 80% of it is on the person behind the scenes."
