Xu Jince couldn't help but feel a little depressed when he saw that he wouldn't cry as soon as he promised her, was he too easy to deal with? I thought so, but I still cherished her in my heart, she had just been frightened, how could he be willing to be too strict with her at this time?

After Xu Jince left, Nalan Jinxiu wanted to sleep for a while. But she was still not at ease, and finally forced Jixiang to ask where Mu Li was being held. At first, Ji Xiang was reluctant to say it, but he still couldn't help Nalan Jinxiu's questioning, and finally spat out.

As soon as Nalan Jinxiu heard that Mu Li was in the torture hall, she immediately couldn't lie down on the bed. No matter how Jixiang stopped her, she couldn't stop her, she still got up and got dressed and went out. The guards at the door didn't dare to stop them when they saw that it was the county lord, so they were helpless and asked them to tell the prince that they were following behind them.

The people in the torture hall didn't interact much with other people, and when they saw a little girl with a cold face, they were very merciless and didn't let her in. Nalan Jinxiu raised her eyebrows, snorted coldly, and said, "This is my home's place, I really can't come, and I have to be stopped by you?"

The guards were confused by her, guessing that it was the new princess, and felt that she was a little younger. Then I thought of the county lord again, and then took a closer look, this little girl's eyebrows and eyes were indeed a little similar to those born by the son. I had to say respectfully: "The county lord forgives the sin, a place like the torture hall is afraid that the county lord's eyes will be polluted, and I ask the county lord to move." ”

"What if I don't, what can you do to me?"

The two people guarding the door exchanged glances with each other, and decided to let her in first, and then go to inform the prince and let him make a decision.

This is the first time Nalan Jinxiu has entered the torture hall, and it is not the same as she imagined, it is very clean, without the slightest trace of blood. The only thing that made her feel uncomfortable was the cold. Not the cold in the ice cellar, but the gloomy cold, as if there is no sunlight here all year round.

She took a few more steps inside when she heard the sound of the board hitting the man. An ominous premonition came to her mind, and she quickened her steps, and through a door, she saw a man lying on a bench against the board, blood staining his shirt. Who is that person if he is not Mu Li?

Nalan Jinxiu's eyes suddenly became hot, she ran over, half-knelt on the ground, and scolded: "You all stop for me!"

The two people next to them were stunned for a moment, and they didn't know why a girl suddenly ran out of the torture hall. wanted to continue fighting, but they were afraid of injuring people by mistake, but they didn't dare to go unpunished if the prince personally ordered it. Intending to avoid this girl's shot, the board really avoided Nalan Jinxiu, but it still hit Mu Li firmly.

Nalan Jinxiu saw that Mu Li was covered in blood, and his face turned pale, and he was anxious, and he didn't care that he still had injuries on his hands, so he snatched the wooden stick of one of them and threw it on the ground. She said coldly: "The county lord said that you are not allowed to fight, are you deaf?"

When the two heard that it was the county lord, they didn't dare to refute it, and no one dared to pick up the wooden sticks that were thrown away. Seeing that the two of them were still there, Nalan Jinxiu became even more angry, and went over to grab the other person's wooden stick, still throwing it on the ground.

Mu Li knew that she was coming, but he didn't have the face to see her again, so he simply kept silent. Nalan Jinxiu half-knelt beside him again, looked at him, and whispered, "Mu Li, how are you?"

Mu Li couldn't bear to look at her, but after listening to her weak words, he couldn't help it anymore. He looked up into her eyes, which were as clear as ever, full of worry and worry, but not a trace of resentment and disappointment.

"It's okay for the subordinates, this is not the place where the county lord should come......"

"You're here, how could I not come?"

"If a subordinate commits a heinous crime, it is not an exaggeration to be beaten to death. ”

"You are my guard, I won't let you die, who would dare to beat you to death?"

Mu Xuan's head was hot, and he felt that although he didn't know anything about feelings, he was even stupid and stupid. But he is lucky in the end, he doesn't like the wrong person, this little girl is worthy of his liking, worthy of his love with his life, and worthy of him to give everything for her.

"I'm sorry......" he said sincerely, looking her in the eye.

"We don't have to say sorry to each other. ”

Nalan Jinxiu looked at him covered in blood, and his heart was sour. This person, knowing that the well water was poisonous, resolutely drank it for her. Can there be any person in this world who has no position, whether right or wrong, who simply wants to protect another person with his life? She has not met in the previous life, and Mu Li is her person in this life. She believed that no matter what he did, there must be his troubles, and he would not hurt her.

"Mu Li, tell me, what the hell is going on, why are you doing that?"

Mu Li closed his eyes and couldn't say anything. He also felt that he was particularly strange today, as if his behavior was out of control. There is no trace of reason in his head, there is only one thought, he likes her, he wants to get her, it's so simple and straightforward.

In fact, from the moment he fell in love with her, this thought lingered in his heart. Who in the world has no idea about the girl he likes? He is an ordinary person, not a god, and he can't be so rational. He also hopes to be close to her in his heart, to be her only one, just as she is in his heart.

So, he really doesn't know what to say, because no matter how he explains it, he's excusing himself. Some people feel that thinking in their hearts and putting them into action are completely different things, and they cannot be generalized. Since his behavior is out of control, it is understandable. And he couldn't think so, he made this mistake that he couldn't forgive.

Seeing that Mu Li didn't speak, Nalan Jinxiu felt a chill in her heart. She thought that Mu Li would defend herself and what reason he would use to persuade her, but she didn't expect him to have such a silent attitude. But if he doesn't explain it now, the charge will fall on him, and it might kill him.

"Mu Li, I'm asking you, why don't you answer?" she said loudly, if it weren't for the fact that he was covered in blood, she would have wanted to beat him.

"Nonsense! Is this place for you to come?" Xu Jince entered the door and saw Nalan Jinxiu half-kneeling on the ground, and was very angry.

"Brother, I asked you to let him go now. ”

"No way. Xu Jince refused, and stepped forward to pull up Nalan Jinxiu.

"Why?"

"What do you say?"

"He is obviously my bodyguard, life and death are up to me, and it's up to me to stay or go. ”

Even if he is your guard, then he is also the secret guard of my Zhenbei Palace, and he is also under my jurisdiction. ”

"I don't care, I just want you to let him go now. ”

Xu Jince took a sharp breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and wanted to pull Nalan Jinxiu back. Nalan Jinxiu insisted very much, Mu Li's current situation, if he continued to fight, he would die, and she absolutely couldn't let him go. Although Mu Li didn't explain anything to her, she just felt that he must have a hard time and couldn't help himself.

"Xu Jinsheng, are you trying to me off?

"I don't!" Nalan Jinxiu also refused neatly, she looked at Xu Jince and said: "He has been injured like that, if you continue to fight, he will definitely die." You have a good reputation in Northern Xinjiang, but now you can't check it, and you directly convict him, what is the difference between this and careless human life?"

How can this kind of thing be investigated? If this kind of thing can't be covered up, who will investigate it with great fanfare? Xu Jince secretly grinded his teeth, and really gritted his teeth: "Nonsense, I'm punishing him and helping him atone for his sins, do you want to stop this?"

"If he is really guilty, how can I stop it, isn't it because I haven't investigated this matter yet?"

"I'm sure I'm going to find out about this, but you have to understand one thing, no matter what Mu Li did today, whether he was willing or not, he had to stay in the torture hall forever. ”

Isn't it just to kill him with a rod forever? Nalan Jinxiu's body stiffened, and her voice trembled: "You promised me not to kill him without my permission, what does it mean to let him stay in the torture hall forever?"

"I promised you not to kill him, but I didn't say I wouldn't punish him. ”

"Brother......

Xu Jince turned his head to Ji Xiang who was poked aside, and his tone was full of anger: "Why don't you bring the county lord back? What's the use of raising you one by one? When the county lord has an accident, you can't protect it, and when the county lord is messing around, you can't stop it, you are really good!"

Jixiang had never seen Shizi get so angry, and he hadn't even seen him angry. Although he knew that he was strict in governing the army, he had always been gentle in front of the county lord, and he was naturally lenient towards their subordinates. Now when he saw him like this, Ji Xiang was so frightened that he had no master, so he had to pull Nalan Jinxiu's arm, hoping to bring this aunt back to the Star Picking Tower as soon as possible.

Nalan Jinxiu waved away the auspicious hand, looked at Xu Jince stubbornly,-for-tat: "What's the use of you blaming her, I am the county lord, she is my slave, dare not listen to me? Or do I just have the title of county lord, and everything must be under the command of my brother? If that's the case, how good it would be for you to buy a marionette on the street to be your sister, it will definitely not contradict you!"

"Bastard, Xu Jinsheng, what do you say yourself?"

Xu Jince was angry this time, in his heart, although his sister has a stubborn personality and is very assertive in doing things, she has always been very obedient and well-behaved. He didn't expect her to openly contradict him, or was it for a guard who had made a mistake? Didn't she understand that what he was doing now was all for her protection, for her own good? He was a man, not a beast, and she really thought he was addicted to murder?
