Chapter 20, The Red Demon
As night approached, a woman dressed in red sat in front of the mirror, her face bewitching, the red tulle outlined the woman's beautiful figure, and there was a golden mask on the table.
"County Lord, why don't you let Flower Shadow go instead of you."
Looking at the woman's frightened face, Hua Ying had a moment of sadness, when he was in Nan'an, the county lord never had to think about it so much, he just needed to be carefree like an ordinary woman, but now, ......
"Not necessarily."
The red lips opened lightly, and the woman reached out and took the mask and put it on, only covering half of her face, and the intricate patterns on the mask were delicate and full of mystery.
This time, the person Ning Wu brought with her was Chan'er, the person she secretly brought from the land of Nan'an, and even her father and queen mother didn't know, although she didn't have too much contact, but Ning Wu remembered that Chan'er died to protect her mother and concubine in her previous life......
Half an hour later, in a courtyard somewhere in the east of the city, looking at the neat and orderly fifty people in front of them, the women's eyes crossed their faces one by one, trying to remember each and every one of them.
These people are all fatherless and motherless orphans, both male and female, as old as eighteen years old, as young as ten years old, basically she secretly sent someone from Nan'an, after a few months of training, whether it is martial arts or piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, they have made great progress.
She stopped in front of the only older woman, and her red lips opened lightly: "Are you Fu Rou?" ”
The woman in Tsing Yi immediately knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "Master Qi, subordinate Fu Rou." "There is nothing else to say.
If she remembers correctly, Fu Rou's original name was Feng Yue, and she was her father's secret guard to her mother's concubine, but she didn't expect it to be ...... this time
Perhaps sensing the woman's doubts, Fu Rou said again: "Please rest assured, in this life and this life, Fu Rou will always be loyal to the master." ”
Thinking that the father and the princess must have known something, but never mentioned it in their hearts, they chose to believe her without hesitation......
Putting away those emotions in his heart, Ning Wu said coldly: "From now on, I will be your master, Red Demon." ”
Calling Fu Rou to the house alone, Ning Wu took off the mask on her face, and couldn't wait to ask, "How is my father, the princess, and the princess?" ”
"Qiyu County Lord, the prince and princess are all right, and Fu Rou was specially sent to protect the county lord." Fu Rou knelt on one knee and opened her mouth without being humble or arrogant.
A heart fell, and Ning Wu waved her hand to signal her to get up: "Now that the situation in the capital is complicated, I'm afraid it won't be so simple to get out if you come in." ”
Before coming, King Nan'an specially explained the current situation, Fu Rou naturally knew it, thought about it, and still conveyed the meaning of the prince.
"I understand what my father meant, he still thinks about the brotherhood with Emperor Song, and wants me to protect myself."
After listening to Fu Rou's narration, Ning Wu sighed slightly, in fact, her father's thoughts coincided with her, after all, the land of Nan'an belonged to the Great Song Dynasty, and the people of the land of Nan'an were still the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and if they really went to war with the Great Song Dynasty, there would be no benefit.
The situation is becoming more and more complicated, and no matter what the situation ends up in, it is necessary to leave a way out.
"Tomorrow night, the Red Garden will officially open, I will come forward as a red demon, I have already said the specific matters, I will let her stay to assist you, and anything can be passed on to me through her."
Ning Wu instructed earnestly, after all, it was not so easy for Fu Rou to enter and leave Qinyuan at will.
"My subordinates understand."
Waiting until Fu Rou retreated, Ning Wu began to think about the future, although Hongyuan had been planning for several months, she was always a little uneasy.
On the way back to Qinyuan, I saw a firelight, listened carefully, and the sound of weapons colliding, after thinking about it, she still went in that direction, but she never expected that it was the prince's mansion.
Calculating the time, the day is about to dawn, and I don't know how long this assassination lasted.
"Have you seen enough?"
A male voice suddenly came from behind him, Ning Wu turned his head suddenly, but saw that the man who was wearing a son didn't know when he was standing behind him, his martial arts had reached such a point?
Fortunately, she was still wearing a mask at this time, so she should not be recognized.
"Who are you?"
Feng Qi had a cold face, the long sword pointed directly at the woman in red, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were full of killing intent.
Having never seen such a look on Feng Qi's face, Ning Wu cautiously clenched the dagger in his sleeve and deliberately lowered his voice: "I'm just passing by to see the excitement." ”
He could be sure that he hadn't seen the woman in front of him, so it shouldn't be Feng Yu's person......
"Heh," suddenly sneered, the long sword stabbed like a sharp arrow, Ning Wu subconsciously dodged sideways, but his sleeve was still broken, so fast swordsmanship!
Thinking of this, Ning Wu didn't make a move, but instead took a light move and retreated a few meters away.
"I have no grievances with Your Excellency, and Your Excellency can't make a move against me."
The sound of the fight became smaller and smaller, and it seemed to have a tendency to calm down, Feng Qi withdrew his long sword and glanced into the distance, could it be that this person was really not with them?
Seeing that the man withdrew the long sword, Ning Wu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he didn't expect that the man a few meters away suddenly came to the front in an instant with a strange step, and choked his neck with one hand.
Feeling the man's strong killing intent, Ning Wu had to hurriedly speak: "It's me!" ”
The man who was about to do it was stunned for a moment, then reached out and took off the golden mask on the woman's face, was stunned for a second, and chuckled: "Heh, it's you." ”
Letting go of the man, Ning Wu subconsciously took a step back, thinking that this man's face changed so fast.
"Not leaving?"
The smile just now was like a flash in the pan, Feng Qi frowned, and his face had returned to its previous cold color.
When the woman's back disappeared into the night sky, and the fight below had stopped, Feng Qi reached out to pick up the woman's lost mask, smiled, looking at her dress, it must be another good show, interesting......
Seeing Feng Qi coming back, Linglong was leading people to clean up the corpses of the assassins in the yard.
"Did you find out?"
Feng Qi glanced at the corpse on the ground absently, as if he was looking at flowers and plants, but the words he said were cold and ruthless.
"Your Highness, there are a total of thirty assassins, all of whom have committed suicide by biting their tongues, and nothing can be found on their bodies to prove their identity." Linglong was a little afraid, after all, Feng Qi had always been moody......
Who knows, this time Feng Qi was unusual, and only lightly ordered: "After dealing with it, go down and rest." ”
Just as Linglong was about to leave, Feng Qi didn't want to stop her again: "Wait." ”
Looking at the half mask in his hand, he thought thoughtfully: "Go and check what has happened recently in the land of Nan'an." ”
Now that Ning Wu has moved, maybe Nan'an has something abnormal, but he was almost negligent.
