"Second Emperor Brother...... I should have guessed that it was his man, but I didn't expect him to be so bold. β
"Childe, you are so merciful to King Lingnan, according to your subordinates, you should give it to him-"
"Needless to say, I have my own plans." Lu Chengjing stood straight in the courtyard, looking at the inky black sky in the distance.
"Lu Gongzi." Lin Qing called in a low voice.
Originally, she just passed by by chance, but when she saw Lu Chengjing's slightly gloomy back, she suddenly wanted to talk to him.
Lu Chengjing turned around slowly, facing Lin Qing's face and couldn't see any extra emotions, "Why doesn't Miss Lin rest so late?" β
"There are some things I haven't been able to figure out, so I want to come to Lu Gongzi to find the answer." Lin Qing said as he walked in the direction where Lu Chengjing was, it stands to reason that knowing Lu Chengjing's identity as the emperor, her attitude towards him should have changed more or less, but the strange thing is that she didn't.
"Miss Lin, it's okay to ask."
Lin Qing's eyes looked at the man in front of him seriously, and finally asked the confusion that had been hovering in his heart: "Why did you save me three times and twice?" Also, why do I always feel like we used to know each other? β
The expression on Lu Chengjing's face was still faint, "I saved you, but it's just because I want to save it, and the girl doesn't have to take it to heart." As for the girl's thought we had known each other, this ......"
To say or not to say? Lu Chengjing, who never hesitated no matter what kind of crisis he faced, was entangled at this time, he changed his appearance, in order to let himself forget his past self, but looking at Lin Qing with a serious face, he suddenly had an urge to tell her everything!
"I understand, I was abrupt, Lu Gongzi doesn't need to say it anymore." It was only a short moment of hesitation, which made Lin Qing guess that the man in front of him might have something unspeakable, "I have always remembered Lu Gongzi's kindness to me, from the moment you saved me, I secretly made up my mind that he would repay me one day." I-"
"Lin Qing." Lu Chengjing suddenly interrupted Lin Qing with a voice in a somewhat eager tone: "I also have a question for you." β
Lin Qing was puzzled by Lu Chengjing's sudden change of attitude, "Lu Gongzi...... You ask. β
"Will you be happy with a man who has saved your life?"
"Huh?" Lin Qing couldn't help but exclaim, what kind of problem is this...... However, Lin Qing suddenly remembered that he liked Ning Canglan in the past, but it didn't seem to be because Ning Canglan had saved her.
"This ...... Probably not. β
"Then ......" Lu Chengjing wanted to ask again, but in the next second, he suddenly hugged Lin Qing's body and flashed behind a clump of phoenix tail bamboos in the courtyard, "Shhh β
Lin Qing felt that his heart had almost reached his throat, and although his heart was full of doubts, he didn't ask out loud.
Through the gap in the bamboo, Lin Qing saw dozens of sneaky black-clothed people, but among that group of people, there was a figure that Lin Qing felt very familiar. Lin Qing thought about it carefully, and finally remembered that the person was Ouyang Feng beside Ning Canglan.
"What is he doing here? Could it be that they are here to arrest me and return to the Canglan Sect? Lin Qing couldn't help but think like this in his heart, completely forgetting that he was still being held in Lu Chengjing's arms at this time.
"Whoever captures the emperor will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold." Ouyang Feng's cold and ruthless voice suddenly came into Lin Qing's ears.
It turned out that he was here to take Lu Chengjing's life? But why......
Lin Qing knew that the Canglan Sect did sometimes take on some assassination missions, but how did he kill the emperor of the current dynasty this time? Their guts are too great!
At first, Lin Qing thought that there were only more than a dozen people in black, but as time went by, more and more people in black appeared in the courtyard, squeezing the already small courtyard into a crowd. Lin Qing knew in his heart that if he confronted those black-clothed people head-on, there was almost no chance of survival.
"I'll lure them away, and you find a chance to escape." Lu Chengjing said in a low voice.
"No, the disparity in numbers is too great, you will die if you rush out!" Lin Qing immediately retorted.
"They're coming at me, and they're going to drag you down with me, and I can't let you have any trouble!"
"But-" Lin Qing still couldn't accept such an arrangement, she was not a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, how could she watch her benefactor go to death?
"Promise me that nothing will happen." Lu Chengjing let go of the hand that was wrapping around Lin Qing's body, and then rushed out like lightning.
"Someone, he's here!" A man in black suddenly shouted.
A large group of black-clothed people immediately chased in the direction where Lu Chengjing appeared.
Lin Qing was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
It turned out that it was him......
Most of the black-clothed people in the courtyard chased Lu Chengjing, including Ouyang Feng, but there were still a few black-clothed people left in the courtyard.
Lin Qing had mixed feelings in his heart for a while, but more of them were worried about Lu Chengjing. Even if he had great ability, how could he escape in the face of so many masters of the Canglan Sect?
"In the past, you came to save me, but this time, it's my turn to save you." Lin Qing muttered, his face calm but extremely resolute.
After making up his mind, Lin Qing jumped out from behind the phoenix-tailed bamboo, and breathed heavily and coughed heavily to attract the attention of the black-clothed man in the courtyard.
"Who?" The man in black was really caught by Lin Qing's movements, and immediately ran in the direction where Lin Qing was, his sharp long sword shining sharply in the pale moonlight.
"What do you ask?" Seeing that Lin Qing was silent, the other man in black said viciously. Originally, they were assigned to stay in this broken courtyard, and their hearts were already full of resentment. If they can't chase the emperor, they will lose the opportunity to receive the reward, how can they not be angry!
"Why, can't even the master of the hall recognize it?" Lin Qing's posture was like a pine, his eyes were like electricity, and he did not lose his momentum at all even in the hazy night.
"Who is the little girl bluffing, the hall master? Who are you? A black-clothed man said disdainfully, this girl is talking nonsense, but I am afraid that most of them are crazy women.
"Even Ouyang Feng didn't dare to talk to me like this, I didn't expect you to have such guts."
"Such a girl claims to be the hall master, but I don't know which hall master you are?" Another man in black asked, but according to the usual situation, they had already killed the woman, but for some reason, he always felt that the aura emanating from the woman's whole body was a little terrifying.
"What do you have to talk to a crazy girl, why don't we ...... a few brothers"
"Wait! Brothers, look at herβ"
"What's wrong with her?"
"What does she look like...... How does it look like the Lin Hall Master of Muyan Hall? β
"Alas, don't say it, I have seen Hall Master Lin at the appointment ceremony, and now it seems that that girl is really Hall Master Lin!" (To be continued.) )
