642: Know yourself and know your opponent
Wait until the next person tidies up the house, Nalan Jinxiu and Ji Hongye can sit down and talk well. Nalan Jinxiu tugged at his sleeve and asked, "Third brother, why didn't you come back last night?" ”
Of course, Ji Hongye wanted to come back, and he was afraid that she would be worried, but things were not going well, and it was a fluke that he could appear in front of her safely now.
On this night in the Southern Chu Palace, he experienced dangerous things, but fortunately, he finally achieved his wish. He didn't say anything, just took out a small bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Nalan Jinxiu.
Nalan Jinxiu looked at the bottle in the palm of his hand, and roughly guessed what it was. She asked with some uncertainty, "But is it the antidote to the cold?"
"Half. Ji Hongye opened the bottle, and inside was half a vermilion pill.
"Qu Qingze, what did he ask you to do for him, and he would give the other half after the deed was completed?"
Ji Hongye nodded.
Nalan Jinxiu's excitement about getting the antidote dissipated in an instant. She looked at Ji Hongye and said, "Did he let you be the one who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country?"
"Nope. ”
"Then what did he let you do?" The antidote to Hanpo must be very rare, and the reason why Qu Qingze agreed to give it must be because he wanted to get more things.
"He just asked me to sabotage Si Pingxiang's surrender. ”
"Is that it?"
"That's right. Ji Hongye saw her skeptical eyes, and sighed helplessly: "Do you really think this matter is easy to do? The Minister of State and Si Pingxiang have already reached a deal, and many ministers in the DPRK and China have also acquiesced, if you want this matter to fail, it will take a lot of thought." ”
When Nalan Jinxiu heard the word "Prime Minister", her eyes darkened significantly. She never knew what Zong Xuanyi was thinking, if he longed for power, then he had it now.
He always seems to like to do shady things and doesn't mind people saying things about him behind his back. Whether it is that he is a traitor, or that he will do whatever it takes to achieve his ends, or even that he is unworthy of being a human being. When he listened, he always laughed.
Ji Hongye didn't speak anymore, Zong Xuanyi was always a thorn in the middle of them, but whenever he mentioned it, it would always make the atmosphere very embarrassing.
After a long time, Nalan Jinxiu decided to divert the topic, and she whispered, "Then let's go back! I don't want to stay in this place for a moment." ”
If Qu Lianbing once moved her, then this time, this kind of moving no longer exists. Everything in the princess's mansion disgusted Nalan Jinxiu.
Ji Hongye touched her hair, and her voice was soft: "Wait another day, I will take someone back to Daning." ”
"Lu Shengchen?"
Ji Hongye smiled at her: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you." ”
"Does the third brother fancy his talent, or his temperament?"
"He was a rare man of good temperament, and he was a very capable man. Daning's Criminal Department needs such a person. ”
Ji Hongye didn't explain everything to Nalan Jinxiu, the reason why he wanted to stay for one more day was because there was one more thing to do. This matter is a deal between him and Qu Lianbing.
When he came to Nanchu, he knew that this trip must be extremely dangerous. Although careful arrangements have been made before, the safety of Nalan Jinxiu has always been a concern for him.
Everyone knows that she is his lifeline, so they always keep their eyes on her. Qu Lianbing has the ability to protect her, just last night, in a place where Nalan Jinxiu couldn't see, the secret guards of the princess's mansion killed many people.
Those people are from the palace, each of them is a master, and their purpose is Nalan Jinxiu. It's a pity that the princess's mansion is not something they can enter if they want to, and they can only die here in the end.
Qu Lianbing is a cold-blooded person, and she wants Ji Hongye to help her catch Mi Xin, because as long as this person lives in the world for one day, her soul skills will be useless.
She has lived so hard until now, and with her current status, she naturally does not allow others to waver. At the beginning, she was too confident, which aroused Qu Qingze's suspicion and wanted to get rid of her quickly.
In order to survive, she had to pretend to be sick, and she had to borrow Nalan Jinxiu to make a move to dissolve the painting. It was not easy to deceive Qu Qingze, she damaged her meridians, made the illusion that she was injured in practice, and hid from the world.
Of course, Nalan Jinxiu didn't know all this. Ji Hongye knew, but he didn't plan to tell her. He has been up and down in the court for many years, and he knows the minds of politicians too well, Qu Lianbing is not without her in his heart, but a very normal choice.
If something happened to him in the palace last night, the princess's mansion would definitely ignore it. It was precisely because Ah Jin knew that he was anxious, and then he was disappointed and angry with the princess's mansion.
Everyone is afraid of Si Pingxiang, including Qu Qingze himself. No one seems to have discovered that the biggest threat to the Southern Chu royal family was Qu Lianbing.
Ji Hongye saw that Nalan Jinxiu's mood was stable, and said in a low voice: "You didn't sleep last night, okay, sleep for a while." ”
Nalan Jinxiu woke up from sleep last night, basically didn't rest well, and the body of the first pregnancy was already easy to get tired, so it stands to reason that she should be tired at this time. But she didn't feel sleepy now, so she wanted to talk to Ji Hongye.
"Third brother......" she blinked her eyes and looked pitiful: "I don't want to sleep." ”
Ji Hongye sighed: "I'm a little sleepy, you should accompany me." ”
Nalan Jinxiu looked closely at his eyes and found that they were indeed full of red blood. Thinking that he must have been thrilled all night last night, and had no time to rest, he nodded.
Nalan Jinxiu doesn't like to pester people when she sleeps, and they usually sleep on separate bedding. Now the room is not very warm, she rolled up the quilt, and still has no sleep.
Ji Hongye stretched out his hand to grab her, and even the person was hugged together. He also patted her lightly with his hand, and whispered: "You are special now, you need to nourish your spirits, sleep!"
Nalan Jinxiu had a lot of things in her mind, and she was wondering if she could use that half pill antidote to prepare the antidote to the cold break. If it can be successful, then the third brother doesn't need to do anything for Qu Qingze.
Drug discrimination is what she is good at, and it is not impossible to reverse the formula of the antidote. It's just that it should take time, and I don't know if her body can wait. Nalan Jinxiu didn't have a clue when she thought about it, and finally nestled in Ji Hongye's arms and gradually fell asleep.
Ji Hongye never fell asleep. He was thinking about this person Mi Xin, who couldn't even catch him in Nanchuqu, proving that this person was indeed very tricky.
But it wasn't Mi Xin who made him hesitate, but the people who traveled with Mi Xin. The intelligence said that that person was a master, and his martial arts were unfathomable, and he vaguely felt that that person had a relationship with him.
If he didn't guess wrong, that person should be the guard who almost missed Ah Jinming's festival back then. He is a very special existence for Ah Jin, and he can feel all this.
couldn't let that person meet Ah Jin, he let Ji Xiaobai and Ye Bing meet him first. Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.
Mi Xin's soul transfer technique can only have a slight effect on people whose martial arts are much higher than him. It is impossible for him to win against Ji Xiaobai, and Ji Xiaobai can easily defeat him.
As soon as Mu Li came back, he saw the scene in the house, Mi Xin vomited blood and fell to the ground, but the people who came were still making killing moves. Of course, Mu Li saw that the other party was a master, and he didn't dare to slack off.
Ji Xiaobai is a martial arts wizard, he is highly talented, and after the guidance of famous teachers, he has never met an opponent for so many years. Today's move with Mu Li made him suddenly have the idea of wanting to compete with him.
Ye Bing has not shown up in secret, and seeing that Ji Xiaobai is not leaving, he is anxious: "Let's go!"
Ye Bing shouted loudly at Ji Xiaobai, but he was ignored by him. He had no choice but to say again: "If you continue to play greedily and make a big mistake, I will see how you will explain to your grandfather when you go back!"
Ye Bing didn't directly say the third master at this time, but Ji Xiaobai didn't dare to continue to entangle. He wanted to leave, but Mu Li sneered: "You and I are a place here, you can come if you want, and you can leave if you want." ”
Mu Li's long sword was unstoppable, making Ji Xiaobai frequently parry. He originally had weapons, but because no one could make a few moves from him, over time, he was negligent.
Ye Bing was also surprised when he watched from the sidelines. Once he teamed up with Long Yi, and he also had the ability to fight with Ji Xiaobai. But Ji Xiaobai, a martial arts wizard, has made rapid progress, and in the past few years, Long Yi has joined forces with him, and it is difficult to get a few moves from his hands. And the young man in black in front of him can have the upper hand, which is really incredible.
Ji Xiaobai saw that Ye Bing didn't move, and said loudly: "Lend me your sword." ”
Ye Bing was just about to give him the sword, and he came back to his senses, these two people continued to fight like this, but they were afraid that they would delay the time to go back to the third master, so he said, "I'll help you." ”
Ye Bing's body method was extremely fast, and he joined the battle in an instant. Mu Li was born in Jingyun, and his shots were extremely ruthless, and his moves were all to fatal places.
As soon as Ye Bing joined, he fell behind, making it difficult for him to parry. Fortunately, Ye Bing and the others didn't have the intention of continuing to entangle, so they quickly got out and left.
Mu Li went over to look at Mi Xin and saw that his face was pale, his breathing seemed to be absent, and it seemed that he was not lightly injured. Mu Li was naturally anxious when he saw it, and he gave him his true anger.
Mi Xin's consciousness became clearer, and he whispered, "It's Ningren." ”
"Do you have any doubts in your heart?"
"To be able to afford such a master, it must not be an ordinary person. Didn't Daning's cabinet chief assistant come to Luozhong, I suspect it's his people. ”
Mu Li frowned and didn't say anything.
"His wife is Princess Jing'an, the person you have in mind. This time I'm giving you a chance to meet her. ”
"What do you mean?"
"The man's kung fu that hurt me just now was his own method, and if I want to save this life, he must heal me. In this way, don't we send it to the door, and you happen to be able to meet your sweetheart. ”
Mu Li's eyelids drooped, and he wondered, what qualifications did he have to meet her? What happened that day should make her hate him!
