"He Miao, you immediately take someone over there to check it, pay attention to safety!"

Seeing that everyone seemed to be a little uncompromising, obviously more like they were shocked by her reaction just now, Meng Xia had to cough lightly and told He Miao to do the right thing first.

Hearing Meng Xia's order, everyone finally recovered, and hurriedly put away the shock and distraction just now, the investigation that should be investigated, and the guards who should be guarded.

After a while, Meng Xia sat down again, looked at Gu Zhan, who was still standing there looking at him a little unrefreshed, and said, "Look at what, sit down." ”

"Oh......"

Hearing this, Gu Zhan subconsciously responded, and then sat down on the side in a daze.

"Is there still water? I've just drunk a lot, but somehow I suddenly feel thirsty again. ”

Meng Xia asked again, staring at Gu Zhan and smiling slightly.

"Yes, yes!"

Seeing Meng Xia's smile, Gu Zhan finally came to his senses, and hurriedly untied the water bag on his body, found the plug and handed it over.

Seeing that Meng Xia took the water and drank a lot in a row, he was relieved, and admired the woman in front of him even more in his heart.

Generally speaking, in the face of extremely stressful emergencies, the human body will have some more normal self-regulation reactions afterwards, such as being like the Nine Princesses now.

This shows that Meng Xia had the same nervousness and fear as a normal person in what happened just now, but at that moment, she forcibly suppressed it, and was replaced by unparalleled composure and highly concentrated ultra-fast reactions.

In the army, this is the most valuable and indispensable ability of an excellent general, Gu Zhan felt that Meng Xia did better than anyone else.

"You saved my life just now, thank you."

Handing the water bag back, Meng Xia felt a lot more relaxed and comfortable, she sincerely thanked her, if it weren't for Gu Zhan's alertness and strange reaction, the first sleeve arrow would have killed her.

"The Ninth Princess is polite, protecting the Ninth Princess is what Gu Zhan should do! It's just that the princess should have been left alive and tortured strictly, these people are too rampant! ”

Gu Zhan regretted it when he thought about it at this time, but fortunately he didn't fight for anything today, but fortunately, he was cheeky and followed Meng Xia's side.

It's just that I really didn't expect that two days ago, the emperor had just punished the Seventh Princess and a cadre so severely, and today there were people who had the audacity to take advantage of the hunt to assassinate the Ninth Princess.

These people are crazy! It's really hateful!

"It's not necessarily useful to keep alive, and the most important thing in the palace is a scapegoat."

Meng Xia's expression was calm, obviously not feeling any loss from what he had just done: "I live, for some people, it is an unforgivable sin, one day either they die or I die, but there is no need to die to investigate." ”

In front of Gu Zhan, Meng Xia didn't deliberately hide anything.

And this is really a heart-wrenching word, but it is too practical to be realistic.

Gu Zhan suddenly felt that his heart was like a knife, and the whole person was so uncomfortable, and suddenly he wanted to kill people, kill those **** people who were always in the dark and wanted to harm Meng Xia with vicious methods!

"You can't die, you have to live!"

He clenched his fists fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "They are the ones who are unforgivable, those who want to harm you!" No matter who they are, I'll help you, just you! ”

Too many words, too many emotions he couldn't express, but Gu Zhan knew the real decision in his heart.

"What I say is true, believe me!"

Seeing that Meng Xia looked at him without making a sound, he emphasized it again with some eagerness.

As long as Meng Xia said a word, he was willing to do whatever he wanted, and even if she didn't say anything, he would do everything he could for her!

"I know, I believe in you."

Meng Xia was silent for a while, and said these six words with a smile.

She didn't say anything more, just handed her handkerchief to Gu Zhan and motioned for him to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

Maybe she was too nervous, maybe she was subconsciously afraid of her unbelieving worries, otherwise how could she sweat for no reason in such a late autumn.

Seeing that Meng Xia believed him, and wiped his sweat with his own handkerchief with a smile, Gu Zhan was indescribably excited.

He forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, trembled slightly and took the handkerchief embroidered with hibiscus and stained with the unique body fragrance of Meng Xia, and said "thank you" repeatedly.

"The seedlings are back, and it seems that the investigation has been completed."

Looking at the seedlings that were quickly walking towards them, Meng Xia quickly shifted his attention to the other side.

Gu Zhan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly recovered his normal color in a moment.

However, he was completely reluctant to use the handkerchief to wipe his sweat, so while Meng Xia looked at him, he hurriedly and quietly stuffed it into his arms and carefully put it away close to his body.

"Ninth Princess, it has been investigated, there are a total of three assassins, the one who fired the first arrow was hit by Gu Gongzi's hidden weapon and died, and the other two have all been shot by you, and none of them escaped."

He Miao immediately said: "The three men in black have not left any useful clues on their bodies, and they have a huge poison hidden in their teeth, even if they are caught alive, they will bite the poison and kill themselves, and there is no way to trace it." These people are all dead, and they are supposed to die. ”

For these things, He Miao is still quite clear, there are special people in the rivers and lakes to raise the dead, and there are many high-ranking officials.

When the dead man shoots, it has always been either the death of the target, or they died by themselves, and there is no way to find out at all.

"Damn, it's really ruthless!"

Gu Zhan said at the moment: "Although there is no way to trace it down, the bodies of these people must also be brought back and handed over to a special person for reporting, and then I will personally present the emperor, and I must not let these people who murdered the Ninth Princess be so cheap!" ”

"Forget Gu Zhan, there's no need to be so troublesome."

Meng Xia said: "It is difficult for these people to see any connection with the previous fall from the horse, at most they are regarded as ordinary assassins. Since my father has personally closed the case of the Seventh Princess, at this time, he is following up with these things that cannot be verified at all, not only will it not have any effect on me, but it will only make my father feel unhappy. ”

"But ......"

Meng Xia's meaning, Gu Zhan naturally understood, but he just couldn't swallow this breath.

The ninth princess almost lost her life just now, could it be that it was so in vain, so that those people had nothing to do?

"Actually, it's really nothing, you have been walking in the palace for many years, don't you know the depth here. As I said, unless I die or they die, it's normal for things like this to happen, and there's no point in making it shorter than that. ”

Meng Xia stood up, but he really didn't take it too seriously.

Since the death of her mother, she has understood what kind of road she wants to take, and it would be abnormal if there was no blood and rain along the way. (To be continued.) )
