In the dark night, above the eaves, a touch of black stood, his knife-like face was full of coldness, and behind him, a woman followed, walked to his side, and sat directly on the eaves.

Looking at the woman who had already sat down next to her, a hint of mockery flashed in the black man's black eyes, but she was calm. He sat down.

"How do you know I'm coming?" The man in black said indifferently.

Yun Yan looked at the dreary night and said indifferently: "You know that I recognize you, so you will definitely come over." ”

The man in black glanced at her, his eyes were shining black in the night lights, and she was always in such an unquestionable tone, she was confident enough.

"Leng Xue, why do you want to assassinate the emperor? Your purpose has always been that you don't want to have anything to do with the royal family and nobles, so the people in the building also depend on the object when they take on the task, why did you make an exception this time, and it's you. Yun Yan looked at the man in black with a solemn expression.

Ji Lengxue said indifferently: "There must be someone to make an exception in everything, and this time the reward is good, so I took it." ”

"Really?" Yun Yan still had disbelief on her face, she looked at Ji Lengxue and continued to ask, "Can you tell me, who hired you?" ”

"Didn't we say yes earlier? Listen to the affairs of the Snow Building, you can't meddle. Now that you're too busy to take care of yourself, don't worry about these things. Ji Lengxue said indifferently, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.

With an indifferent smile, Yun Yan said: "Since you don't want me to ask, then I won't say more, did you bring wine?" ”

"You don't look good." The man in black took out a wine bottle from his side, raised his head and took a sip of wine, and casually threw the wine bottle to the woman next to him.

"Is there one? Leng Xue now knows how to read words and colors? Yun Yan smiled indifferently, took the wine bottle, and took a sip, but as soon as she drank it, she felt a pain in her throat, she stroked her chest, coughed in a low voice, and the expression on her face looked extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Ji Lengxue snatched the wine bottle from Yun Yan's hand, looked into the distance, and put away the killing aura on his body, "This Liangdu is the same as you said, it is full of dead silence everywhere, it is a dead silence that cannot be covered up by prosperity, and it is cold to the hearts of the people." ”

Hearing this, Yun Yan turned his head to look at him, it was rare to hear such touching words from his mouth.

"This time, you asked me to come to Liangdu, what do you want me to do for you?" Ji Lengxue took another sip of wine.

Yun Yan chuckled, he was always cold, Yun Yan looked at the night sky, thinking of the man who was like a dark night, the dead silence of the whole body made people tremble, she said indifferently: "Help me check someone, Night Charm!" ”

Hearing this name, Ji Lengxue put down the wine bottle in her hand and looked at Yun Yan with a little surprise.

As if sensing Ji Lengxue's reaction, Yun Yan turned his head to look at him, "What's wrong?" ”

Ji Lengxue came back to her senses and said lightly: "I am also investigating this person, it is said that he has extremely high martial arts, can kill people invisibly, and seems to have a lot of power, but unfortunately, his whereabouts are secret, and we still don't know about him." ”

"I didn't expect that listening to Xue Lou wouldn't be able to know his information." Yun Yan muttered to herself, her eyes became deeper and deeper, that person was really mysterious enough, although she was cooperating with him, but she was always a little uneasy about people or things she couldn't control.

Looking at the gloom in Yun Yan's eyes, Ji Lengxue stood up and said indifferently: "I will help you find out his information." ”

Seeing him stand up, Yun Yan couldn't help but say, "Aren't you going to see the blue water?" That girl misses you. ”

Shaking his head slightly, a trace of composure appeared on Ji Lengxue's cold face, and after a while, he said: "With you, she will be fine." ”

They all believe her, Yun Yan smiled bitterly, but sometimes, what they need is not stability, but the care of others, she thinks she can't do it, looking at Ji Lengxue's cold and hard expression, he, when will he know how to care about others?

Ji Lengxue glanced at the sky, turned her head, looked at Yun Yan, and said indifferently: "Don't forget the agreement between you and me, before that, you have to leave your life behind, and you can't die." With that, he soared into the air and disappeared into the night.

He waited for a long time, just to say this? Can't die? The corners of Yun Yan's mouth raised slightly, looking at the night sky that was overwhelming, sometimes, people really didn't have the slightest choice. If they could live, who would want to die?

Looking at the direction in which Ji Lengxue disappeared, Yun Yan's eyebrows couldn't help frowning, the purpose of his coming here is definitely not so simple, assassinating the emperor is not a trivial matter, if the matter is revealed, even if the power of Xue Lou is great, I am afraid that he will be attacked by the imperial court at that time, he is not such a disproportionate person. It always felt like she didn't know what was going on.

……

Imperial Palace, Xiangtian Palace

In the room, a man stood at his desk, his eyebrows furrowed, the pen in his hand moving, as if he was drawing something, on the ground, all over the paper, and most importantly, on each piece of paper, there was a person, the same person. It was a woman, with beautiful eyebrows, but she had an extra birthmark on the left side of her face, which ruined the whole beauty.

A eunuch next to him stood there, he looked at the man at the desk, his face was anxious, these four princes have been painting all night, and after returning from Yunxiang's Mansion last year, they have closed their doors, and even the emperor's investigation of the assassin has been put aside. The woman in this painting, he has seen, isn't it the ugly third lady of the Yunxiang family? At the beginning, the fourth prince personally begged the emperor to withdraw from the marriage, but now how did he draw her. The more I thought about it, the more scared the eunuch became.

"Lord Wang, you can rest." The eunuch mustered up his courage and said.

The pen in Mu Qingyuan's hand suddenly stopped, looking at the painting on the table, a beautiful woman jumped on the paper, almost the red spot on the left side of her face, Xu has been thinking about her appearance all night, he didn't think how ugly the birthmark was, on the contrary, it was even more beautiful that made his heart move.

This whole night, he seemed to be in her magic barrier, his mind was full of her shadow, looking at her in the painting, he felt excited, thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Next to him, the eunuch saw Mu Qingyuan smiling to himself, and the whole person was even more scared, he knelt on the ground with a puff, "Lord Wang, stop it, if you go on like this, your body will not be able to bear it." ”

Interrupted again by this sudden remark, a trace of displeasure flashed on Mu Qingyuan's face, and he said, "Dog minion, get out of the way." ”

The eunuch shrank back, he raised his head, looked at Mu Qingyuan, and said in a mournful voice: "Lord Wang, this is a slave who is bold, but the case that the emperor wants you to investigate, you haven't started yet, if you blame it, I'm afraid it will be ......."

"Zhilu Dao, you can go out of the Lu." Mu Qingyuan said in a calm voice.

As soon as he heard that Mu Qingyuan didn't blame him anymore, the eunuch was also relieved, he glanced at the woman on the ground, and she could still confuse a smart and wise person like the fourth prince, she was really a demon.

Corning Palace

The Queen Mother Gao was lying gracefully on the soft couch, and the queen next to her was holding the portrait in her hand, a trace of coldness flashed on her beautiful face, and her hands trembled unconsciously.

Glancing at the queen's expression, Empress Dowager Gao said with a cold face: "How did you behave as a mother, you didn't even notice your son's careful thoughts, but now you're angry here, hum." ”

Hearing this, Gao Yueli knew that she was out of shape, she lowered her head and said, "It's the concubine's negligence, please forgive the queen mother." ”

"Forgiveness? What can I do to you, you are the queen of the world, but you are the queen of the world, but you are really the queen, you can't manage the harem well, the mourning family can help you, the emperor you don't serve well, you tell me how many days the emperor is in your palace this month, now, you can't discipline your son well, the mourning family really regrets it now, let you enter the palace and become the queen. The Queen Mother's arrogant eyes fell coldly on Gao Yueli, her eyebrows and eyes were full of coldness, and the words she said were even more ruthless.

Hearing these words, Gao Yueli's face was also unhappy, and she argued: "Auntie, it was you who asked me to play the role of a gentle and graceful woman, and you said that this can please the emperor, but where did the emperor look at me squarely." His eyes are clearly on that woman, hmph, where am I worse than that woman, he just doesn't want to look at me, even Concubine Rou is more pleasing to him, what did I do wrong? Speaking of this, the anger in her heart suddenly surged, and her usual noble image completely collapsed.

Empress Dowager Gao glanced at Gao Yueli coldly, and said angrily: "Let you play the role of a gentle and graceful woman because if you don't do this, I'm afraid that when you enter the palace, the emperor will ignore you." Fortunately, you have a strong stomach and a son, and when he inherits the unification, you will be the empress dowager of the Dongyue Kingdom, and when the time comes, Concubine Rou and the like will not be at your disposal. ”

Being said by the Empress Dowager Gao, Gao Yueli's face also improved, she glanced at the portrait in her hand, looked at the hateful face, and said in a deep voice: "Then what should we do?" If he hadn't divorced the marriage at the beginning, Yuan'er would marry her, I wouldn't say anything, but now that he is the fiancée of the sixth prince, he must not let Yuan'er go wrong, it will affect his position as the crown prince. ”

"Now that I know this, why did I go earlier." Empress Dowager Gao glanced at her, looked ahead, and said in a cold voice, "The mourning family wants to see if this Yunyan has three heads and six arms, and can hide from the hands of the mourning family." dared to covet the grandson of the mourning family, she should have known that Lu Dao would have such an end. ”

Hearing this, Gao Yueli's heart instantly relaxed, she is very clear about the Queen Mother's methods, and now with the Queen Mother's words, everything is simple, Yunyan, she is destined to be unable to escape, just like her mother.
