The white clouds are floating in the blue sky, and there are people running under the white clouds.

That's right, under the big sun, it was Gu Qi and Xia Jin who were struggling to dig a pit.

The two of them secretly borrowed two copper shovels from the Mulan paddock steward, sneaked back to the horse race, and chose a few suitable locations to start digging pits.

According to Gu Qi's requirements, this pit should not be too big or too deep, as long as it was enough to stumble the horse's legs.

"Miss Shen, do you think this pit is useful?" Xia Jin wiped the sweat on her head, held her waist, and looked at Gu Qi with an ugly face.

Thinking that he was dignified and young master, how could he have just done this kind of drudgery, if it weren't for the fact that the matter of this test was particularly tricky, he would not have done such hard work.

When Gu Qi saw Xia Jin asking her, she also temporarily stopped her copper shovel, and fanned the wind a few times with her sleeve: "Young Master, this pit is just one of them, in order to be foolproof, there must be other preparations in the future." ”

"Then we'll be ready according to the rest, what kind of pit to dig, I'm tired to death!" Xia Jin complained, looking at the small dirt pit under his feet that had only been dug a little more, and said: "Besides, someone will definitely come to check before the competition, and if we dig like this, we will definitely be discovered." ”

"Don't worry, young master, I'll find some branches and leaves to spread later, and I don't plan to dig too much, let's just dig a few on the side of the road along the horse race, young master, you just have to ride the horse here, even if they fall, they won't care."

"Really?" Xia Jin looked at her suspiciously, not because he didn't believe her, but after the failure of the last game, he was a little skeptical, whether these little tricks were reliable or not, and it would be bad not to be seen through by the cunning princess when the time came.

"Young master, you have to have confidence in yourself!" Gu Qi made a cheering gesture, making Xia Jin smile.

Forget it, it's really not good, and there is the last sentence, if you don't get sick or make a disaster when the time comes, you have to find a way to get through.

The two of them worked in the Mulan paddock for most of the day, until they were almost satisfied, and then put the crime tools back to the steward, and unknowingly rode on the jujube red BMW, taking advantage of the wind before the sun set. The dusty servants hurried back.

As soon as they arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, the two of them went their separate ways, and they didn't even bother to say goodbye, so they went their separate ways.

Gu Qi was in a hurry to go home, while Xia Jin was only in a hurry to take a shower and change clothes.

He really can't stand the smell of sweat and earthy smell all over his body!

Yes, as soon as he returned to Di Huaxuan, he beckoned Le Lan and asked her to arrange it in the bathroom as soon as possible, but he Young Master Jin didn't want to wait for a minute.

Fortunately, the servants of Di Huaxuan all knew that the master they served had a slight habit of cleanliness, and the water was also prepared early, so they could use it directly if they waited for the water to be taken away.

Xia Jin couldn't wait, and when he saw that the water in the bathroom had just arrived, he couldn't wait to push the maids around him, leaving only two maids who often served him to bathe.

As soon as he entered the warm water, Xia Jin let out a long sigh of comfort, and in an instant, even the earthy smell in his nose was reduced a lot.

The swirling water vapor was constantly coiling in the bathroom, and Xia Jin crawled on the edge of the tub as if boneless, letting the two maids who served her knead the shoulders for him.

"On the right, the right arm is heavier." Xia Jin muttered comfortably, this sweat, it felt so good to come back and take a bath, he even felt as if he was in a fairyland.

The moderate pressure of the massage made him almost drowsy, but suddenly the increased force on his right shoulder made him feel a slight pain.

Xia Jin opened his misty eyes slightly, and scolded the shadow in the mist on the right with difficulty: "You want to die, make so much effort, do you want to pinch the young master to death?" ”

"I wouldn't mind if I could!"

A faint male voice came, revealing a hint of coldness, even the warm moisture in the bathroom could not make it much warmer.

Xia Jin trembled unconsciously, and stabbed into the water again out of instinct: "Who are you?" Dare to peek at Young Master Ben taking a bath. ”

The voice laughed loudly, but no one came over with such a loud voice, it seemed that this person had been prepared.

Xia Jin suddenly felt refreshed, and caught a glimpse of the person wearing a silver mask in the swirling water vapor, and the dark red corners of the mask were exaggerated and curved in a large arc, as if mocking everyone who appeared in front of it.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the key is to know that your life is in my hands, and I can end it at any time."

The man's hand was shaken, as if there was really a fragile neck in front of him, Xia Jin swallowed, it seemed that he didn't realize that he was lying, this person could avoid the heavy guards and come here, and appeared in front of him without a sound, he did have this strength.

"What do you want to do?" Xia Jin asked in a low voice, and her brows, which were wet with water, also wrinkled.

"Very smart." The man chuckled appreciatively, and then said, "But a wise man can only live long if he does a smart thing." ”

"What do you want me to do?" Xia Jin asked again, his voice was much more relaxed than before, at least for now, he should not be worried about his life.

"Zaifu's third young master is indeed extraordinary, and he guessed the purpose of Zaifu so quickly, it seems that dealing with smart people is really much easier~" The man was still looking at him with his arms crossed, and the silver weird mask flashed with cold light in the mist: "It's just that I don't know how to trust you, young master?" ”

"You...... What do you want! This time Xia Jin almost gritted his teeth and said, this masked man made it clear, although he wouldn't kill him, it wouldn't make him feel better.

The masked man's figure slid forward, as if floating over, and he stretched out his hand in front of Xia Jin, and there was a brown pill lying in his palm.

"Good, eat it, I'll let you go after eating it."

Xia Jin looked at the pill in his hand without blinking, even if it was not a poison, it must be something that could control him, he was hesitating.

"Come and eat it, if you don't eat it again, I can't guarantee that your head will still be on your shoulder, young master."

This...... It's a threat to the red fruit!

What else can he say, he can only obey his words.

Xia Jin took the pill from the masked man's hand and swallowed it reluctantly, only then did he ask with a frowning face, "Can you talk about it now." ”

"Very good," the masked man tapped twice, and then said, "In the next two competitions, I want you to win, and you must do everything possible to stumble on the third prince, and you must not let him win, do you understand?" ”

"Understood." Xia Jin replied with a pulled face.

"Good, that's good." The masked man's figure kept receding, and he disappeared completely without noticing, only his last words echoed in the air.

"Don't try the antidote, there is no cure for this medicine, if you don't believe it, just try it!"
