Under the protection of four sword masters, Cao Yuan, who successfully saved his son, and Cao Yan, who survived the disaster, walked slowly in the snow. On the way back to Cao's mansion, the light of the candlelight on the street seemed a little dark.

The prisoner who replaced the prisoner has been killed. Meng Yan and the other two who knew the inside story have also committed suicide. Lin Mo certainly would not tell it. Now as long as he insists that he killed his own son, no one will do anything to him, Cao Yuan, and his son has been saved.

At this moment, the father and son who should have been happy had heavy faces on their faces, and Cao Yan was particularly gloomy.

"Dad, are you really going to follow Lin Mo and join the puppet emperor without any real power?" Cao Yan, wearing a prison guard uniform, didn't know why his father was so respectful just now, and gave the annoying Lin Mo so much money.

Cao Yan and Lin Mo have met him five times. The first time was on the street. Because Baili Qingcheng, Xifeng killed one of his swordsman's guards. The second time was to apologize in the Lin Mansion. He thought that it was clearly the one Baili Qingcheng who was seducing him first, but in the end, he wanted to apologize and admit his mistake. Thinking of this, Cao Yan was particularly unfair.

The third time was when He Yuner from Zuisheng Building was getting married. That time, Cao Yan had the intention to defeat Jian Ying and take down He Yuner, the beauty, but was disturbed by Lin Mo, and he even fled in a panic.

The fourth time was on the street, because of the couple and that child. When they saw the graceful woman in purple, Cao Yan originally wanted to snatch her back home, but she was disturbed by Lin Mo again, which made Cao Yan hate him!

The fifth time was tonight. Unexpectedly, his former enemy, his father obeyed his words and looked flattering. Although Lin Mo made a surprise plan to save him, Cao Yan did not intend to appreciate it.

Seeing his son so angry, Cao Yuan suddenly laughed: "You are stupid to be your father when you join the puppet emperor? Is it enough to give him Lin Ziyong so much money today, which is already considered thanks!"

Thinking of the current situation, he joined forces with Lin Mo to Meng Yan and was already separated from King Rong. King Rong would not use him anymore. King Rong would definitely not be able to go there again, but it would be impossible for him to follow Lin Mo and turn to loyal to a puppet emperor.

Because Cao Yuan still has a way to go.

"Dad, what do you mean?" Cao Yan heard his father's implication and immediately felt happy.

Cao Yuan has a very deep foundation in the Ministry of Revenue. King Rong could not do it if he wanted to undermine and replace him for a while. Now, as long as Cao Yuan surrenders to Empress Dowager Xuan Shu, he can use Empress Dowager Xuan Shu's people in the Ministry of Revenue to help her re-manage the Ministry of Revenue.

Cao Yuan nodded with a smile on his face: "Yes, let's go and serve the Empress Dowager. The Ministry of Revenue, which is in charge of the world's money and grain, is still in the hands of your father and me. The Empress Dowager will definitely use your father..., you..., who are you?"

As he was talking with a gaze, Cao Yuan suddenly found two figures on the corner of the street, but because it was night, the two of them stood a distance and could not see the person's face clearly.

Although he didn't know who it was, Cao Yuan could feel that no, he was sure that the other party must have been bad, because the sword in the hands of one of the two had been unsheathed and had awesome murderous intentions.

"Mr. Cao, we have just met you, and you don't remember me anymore." The man standing up in front of him spoke, his old and contented tone was extremely cold.

The two of them kept approaching. After a second, Cao Yuan recognized them under the reflection of candlelight on the street. His slightly fat body trembled suddenly and said tremblingly: "Mr. Jian, Guard Zhao, what are you going to do?"

The visitor was Jian Wencheng, the doctor of the Ministry of War, and the guard of Xuan Yuan's great swordsman, Zhao E.

Looking at these two people, Cao Yuan's four sword master guards immediately became alert. He drew out his long sword and wanted to protect Cao Yuan and Cao Yan behind him. But when he felt the ten-foot martial arts domain that Zhao E had expanded, he hesitated and dared not move anymore.

"What are you doing?" Jian Wencheng's face was gloomy and his tone was cold: "Do you think I didn't expect you, Lord Cao, to secretly overcome Chen Cang's plan? I am not stupid. Therefore, I borrowed Guard from Lord Xuan and waited for your arrival on the way back to Cao's mansion."

Listening to Jian Wencheng's words, Cao Yuan's slightly fat body trembled again. He knew exactly what Zhao E was in. His four swordsman's guards could not stop them at all, and he did not dare to go forward to stop him.

Looking at Zhao E and Jian Wencheng who were approaching, Cao Yan hugged his father's arm with a pale face and said in panic: "Dad, you must save me, Yan'er doesn't want to die yet."

Looking at his son who was crying, Cao Yuan had no choice but to beg him: "Mr. Jian, we have been officials in the same dynasty for many years. I know that it was Yan'er who killed Mr. Ling, so you can spare his life!"

Cao Yuan wanted to escape but he didn't dare to escape at all. Zhao E was a great practitioner at the level of a great sword master. Within a hundred meters, he could move the long sword and take down anyone's life.

"As long as you can live my son, you can do whatever you want me. I can give you a lot of money and I can also go to your son to mourn for a hundred days. Lord Jian, please spare my son. Please beg you." Seeing that Jian Wencheng was still not moved at all, Cao Yuan was about to kneel down.

Jian Wencheng held Cao Yuan's figure that was about to kneel down and said angrily: "My Lord Cao, your son is life, my son is lifeless? Don't worry, today I will only kill your son and not take your life."

As he said that, Jian Wencheng looked straight at the trembling Cao Yan with cold eyes: "Mr. Cao, don't worry, guard Zhao's sword is very fast, you won't feel any pain, please go on the road with peace of mind!"

"Ah——" As soon as Jian Wencheng's words came out, Cao Yan was suddenly shocked, turned around and ran away.

Jian Wencheng, who ran out more than ten meters, waved with a cold face. Zhao E looked at Cao Yan, who was fleeing. The sword in his hand tightened, his eyes gathered, and threw the sword. The sword broke through the air and was about to pierce Cao Yan's body in a blink of an eye.

"Guard Zhao doesn't want it. I'm willing to be loyal to the Empress Dowager. Please spare my son's life, Cao..." Cao Yuan howled heart-wrenchingly, but it was too late.

After Cao Yuan finished speaking, the long sword that broke through the air had pierced Cao Yan's body and nailed it to the door panel on the street without any rest.

"Yan'er--"

The son was killed in front of him. Cao Yuan opened his body and let out a shrill and extremely desperate wail. His voice broke through the silent night and shocked a piece of night bats hanging upside down on the eaves.

"Mr. Cao, brothers, hurry up, something happened to Lord Cao!" Another voice suddenly sounded in the darkness, and then a sound of armor rubbing from nearby.

He pointed his hand at the long sword that nailed Cao Yan to the door panel and condensed. The long sword flew into his hand. Cao Yan, who turned into a corpse, landed on the ground, rolled a few times before stopping.

"Yan'er!" Cao Yuan turned his mind and got up and ran towards his son. His face was full of pain. When he saw the blood hole in his son's body, he fell into complete despair and his eyes immediately lost their spirit.

After returning to the sword and returning to the sheath, Zhao E glanced at Cao Yuan who was crying with his son in his arms, and then looked at Jian Wencheng: "Mr. Jian, the people from the security camp are here. Are we going to kill them?"

Jian Wencheng stroked his beard and shook his head: "There is no need to fight with the people in the security camp. I'm afraid it will bring a lot of trouble to the Empress Dowager. Since Cao Yan has already killed him, let's go."

After saying that, Jian Wencheng took Zhao E away.

As soon as the two men disappeared, Ji Qian came with more than a hundred security battalions soldiers.

Ji Qian pressed the sword around his waist and walked to Cao Yuan. Seeing Cao Yan who had lost his life in his arms, he sighed quietly: "Mr. Cao, Lin Shangqing suddenly thought that Jian Wencheng might have kept a backup plan, so he sent me to come hurriedly. I'm sorry, it's still too late to come."

Hearing Ji Qian's words, Cao Yuan, who was holding Cao Yan, suddenly burst out and made a stern and painful voice: "Xuan Yuan and Xuan Shu, I, Cao Yuan, will not be a human being if I don't avenge this revenge..."

Under the escort of Xifeng and Qiu Yun, Lin Mo walked to the door of Lin Mansion's backyard and was about to push the door open and enter, two figures suddenly appeared here, which was Jian Wencheng and Zhao E.

"A man was killed? No flaws were seen?"

"No, how could a little girl make a mistake in doing things? Sect Master Lin doesn't believe in the little girl?" Jian Wencheng nodded, and then tore off a mask from his face with Zhao E. They were two women, Han Qianyue and Xiaoying.

"How can it be? Sect Master Han's disguise technique has reached the realm of transformation." Lin Mo looked at Han Qianyue and saw that his waist was very thick, completely losing his previous graceful and slenderness: "Sect Master Han, what are you doing?"

I looked at Xiaoying's waist next to me again. It was also very thick, and there was no shape the woman should have. I couldn't help but become interested in the mystery of Han Qianyue's disguise technique.

"This is the secret!" Han Qianyue smiled slightly, then changed the subject and asked, "Sect Master Lin, your eldest wife's disguise skills are not bad, why did you come to me? Are you not afraid that I will tell Cao Yuan about the murder of Cao Yan?"

At noon today, when Lin Mo went to the kitchen of Kangle Inn to discuss the killing of Cao Yan with her, Han Qianyue couldn't help but be surprised. Although he promised to give him enough benefits, the two of them were opponents!

Isn't he worried about his leaking secrets?

Lin Mo shook his head and smiled, "Sect Master Han is a smart person and will not tell this secret."

As he said that, Lin Mo grinned again and said, "Besides, the one who killed people is Sect Master Han, what does it have to do with me, Lin Mo? Who can testify that you and I were conspiring to kill Cao Yan?"

"You..." Han Qianyue was blocked and had nothing to say at once, and suddenly smiled and said, "Sect Master Lin is really calculating. No wonder he has to let his people go. It turns out that he is going to pull the little woman into the water."

Han Qianyue's smile was extremely beautiful. Although she still showed Lin Mo with a mask at this moment, the smile came from the heart, as if she had taken down all her defenses, which was very real.

Looking at Qiaoxiao Yanran, Lin Mo couldn't help but be infected by it and smiled knowingly: "Look at what Master Han said, you are giving you enough benefits to you."

Lin Mo did not believe that Han Qianyue, who was the leader of the Yue Sect, did not see his thoughts. The reason why he still chose to join forces with him was just that the benefits he gave him were enough to tempt her.

Although the beauty in front of her is talking and laughing and chatting happily, if someone gives her enough benefits and conditions at this moment, Lin Mo believes in her and will immediately take action against him, causing him to die without any hesitation.

But the others present didn't think so, such as Xiaoying.

Xiaoying watched her sect leader chatting with Lin Mo so happily, as if she was a close friend, and her face was still calm, but Mo, who was smiling at Lin at this moment, was so angry that she wanted to swallow Lin Mo alive.

When he looked at his sect leader, he smiled so happily and was unprecedentedly happy. Xiaoying really couldn't understand it. The two of them were obviously opponents, so why did the sect leader smile at him so much and promise to help him kill someone?

What's more, he even kept him at Kanglai Inn for a meal. His sect leader was immediately the Queen of Chu. How could he be so close to his opponent? Isn't he afraid that the Lord of Chu will be angry?

Xiaoying was angry, and Xifeng and Qiu Yun were happy, especially Qiu Yun.

Qiu Yun was very convinced. The other party was the leader of the Yue Sect and was his opponent. However, the leader of his family forced the general to become a friend, and he also wanted to accept the beautiful female leader as his wife.

At the door of Lin Mansion's backyard, after chatting with Han Qianyue for a while, the two of them resigned. Lin Mo pushed the door and entered the backyard, and Han Qianyue took Xiaoying back to Kang's inn.

As soon as he entered the backyard, Lin Mo's smile immediately disappeared, and turned to seriousness, and immediately ordered: "Xifeng and Qiu Yun will give orders immediately, and the interval between patrols and guards in the mansion will change."

After saying that, Lin Mo walked towards the main room of the inner courtyard.

Looking at Lin Mo who was leaving, Qiu Yun looked at Xifeng with confusion and looked at Xifeng: "Xifeng, why did the sect leader suddenly change the interval between guards and patrols in the mansion? Didn't it change every three days before? It's only two days later!"

Xifeng shook his head and smiled faintly: "Qiu Yun, have you forgotten who was standing outside the door just now? He is the master of the dignified Yue Sect, a great practitioner above the level of the Great Sword Master!"

People at the Great Sword Master's level and above have extremely sensitive ears. You can hear the breathing and slight footsteps of the people inside through a wall.

Just now, Han Qianyue stood outside the back door and said it was not long or short, but it was enough to find out the interval between the guards in Lin Mansion patrols, which would inevitably lead to a major security loophole.

"I understand!" After Xifeng mentioned this, Qiu Yun suddenly woke up, turned around and asked Xun Chao's guard to change the patrol interval, but he felt puzzled again.

He looked at Xifeng in a slight manner, Qiu Yun said in confusion: "Xifeng, the Han Sect Master had such a happy chat with our Sect Master just now. I guess he was interested in our Sect Master. Will they come to harm the Sect Master?"

Xifeng smiled helplessly: "Xifeng, it seems that you have your sister Yun'er, you have become stupid. The joy of chatting is just superficial, but in fact they are all calculating each other."

"I understand. It seems that I have been really lazy these days!" Qiu Yun nodded thoughtfully, and a faint sense of shame and self-blame flowed out from his eyes.

On the way back to Kangle Inn.

Han Qianyue calmed down her sweet smile and walked slowly. Thinking about the benefits Lin Mo promised to give him, she felt a little confused and worried. But the light from the corner of her eyes suddenly glanced at Xiaoying's face, with a little depressed face and her brows locked.

"Xiaoying, what's wrong? Are you worried?"

Han Qianyue's question made Xiaoying come back to her senses. She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Sect Master, Xiaoying really can't hold it in anymore. Xiaoying just wants to ask you, you want to cooperate with Lin Mo, he is the sect leader of Mo Sect."

The Mo Sect and Yue Sect have fought against each other a lot, and there have been casualties and injuries, but in general, the Yue Sect has been trapped in the Mo Sect more times, and the Yue Sect’s Ancient Butterfly and Yue Sect’s Yue Sect have also died. It can be said that the two sects have blood feuds.

But now, the leaders of the two families have cooperated, and there are people talking and laughing. What is even more incredible is that Han Qianyue even let Lin Mo into the kitchen, eating and washing dishes together like a couple.

Han Qianyue sighed and explained, "Silly girl, of course I know that he is the leader of the Mo Sect. Many of our sisters died at the hands of her Mo Sect. I remember this clearly, but when the other party has the benefits we want, our two sects can also be friends or cooperate."

The world is prosperous and profitable. When the Tao is different and the plan is not mutual, friends can become enemies. When the Tao is the same, enemies can sometimes cooperate or even become friends.

"Xiaoying understands!" Xiaoying understood Han Qianyue's words, but then said with some concern: "Sect Master, you are about to become the queen of Chu. Xiaoying thinks you should be a little far away from Lin Mo."

"Oh, why is this?" Han Qianyue asked in confusion, not understanding what Xiaoying said.

Xiaoying thought for a while and said, "Master, you may not have realized that you were cold and cold when you were in front of others and the Lord of Chu, but when you were in front of Lin Mo, you often laughed, and Xiaoying could see that it was from the heart. Xiaoying was really afraid that you would fall into it."

"boom--"

Xiaoying's words were like a bomb exploding in her mind, and Han Qianyue's body suddenly trembled, because she realized at this moment that she really loved to laugh when she was in front of Lin Mo, and several times it was from the heart.
