[Leaving Gongzi: You are just a pawn of this childe, since your defeat has come, then there is no need for us to cooperate. 】

Just as Shizome was about to leave this strange place, he suddenly heard a commotion, and the sound came from inside the wall at the end of the road. It made Shizome, who was just about to lift his feet and leave, stunned, and immediately quietly approached the wall with bated breath, gently attached his left ear to the wall and listened carefully to the movement inside.

Faintly, she heard a few people talking about what craftsmen, what those two people, or something, which made Xi Ran listen more and more like they were discussing those missing craftsmen and Emperor Xuan Lie and Mo Hexin, and she was overjoyed, it really didn't take any effort to come, it turned out to be here.

But Xiran thought about it again, no, this is Ji Tao's special guide for her. Isn't that right?

She suddenly felt chills, and her eyes looked at the place where Ji Tao disappeared again, so Ji Tao, who is he?

Another corner of the street

"Your Highness, mission accomplished." A man in black held a folding fan in his hand to lower his voice and said respectfully towards the darkness.

"Okay, then the next thing can only depend on the creation of the fifth brother, and I can only help here, I hope they can all be safe." The man in the dark nodded lightly and spoke slowly, because the light was dim and the man's expression could not be seen.

"Don't worry, they will definitely have no problem, and there is no need for His Highness to bother so much."

"You don't know, every move has to be made carefully, and every piece has to be used in the right place in order to play the role he should play. By the way, has her identity been confirmed? ”

"It's confirmed, the subordinates think she's their child, but she doesn't seem to know her identity, do you want to kill?" The man in black paused, raised his hand with the folding fan to his neck, and said in a killing gesture.

"No, don't kill it yet, it's still useful to keep it. It's really getting more and more interesting. ”

The gaze comes back

Xiran listened to the wall for a long time, and when there was no sound inside, she held her breath and quietly climbed up the wall, and slowly popped up a small head, only to find that behind this wall was actually a huge courtyard!

Shizome looked at the guards patrolling inside, and guessed that this should be another residence of Prince Snow, and just as she was about to climb over the wall to sneak in, there was movement next to her, making her shrink back immediately.

"Childe, Childe is waiting for you in the hall." Seeing Xue Man coming back from outside the door, a personal guard hurriedly ran forward to lead the way.

Xi Ran took a look, it turned out that this courtyard was snowy, looking at the scale of this mansion, this should be the house where he would be crowned the king of the county in the future, and he couldn't help but scold in his heart that the father and son didn't have a good thing, so they continued to stare at their words and deeds and secretly observe.

"What is he here for?" Although Xue Man can't see with his eyes, in the past few weeks, he has been able to handle affairs on his own, he is much more mature and stable, and began to help Xue Rongqing take care of some things, and he no longer goes out to spend time drinking, and the whole person has a lot of responsibilities.

"My subordinates don't know." The guard lowered his head in response as he led the snow man.

Soon the two walked through the courtyard to the hall, and when Xiran saw that there was no one around, he moved quickly, immediately turned into the courtyard, quietly ran to the vicinity of the hall, saw that there was no one around, and hurriedly hid under a window and peeked inside.

In the hall, a man in a dark purple windbreaker sat leisurely on the upper chair in the hall, wearing a half-drawn silver mask on his face, fiddling with a tea set in his hand, and wearing a domineering silver ring on his right index finger, with very strange lines on it.

When the man saw Xue Man coming in, he slowly put down the tea set, and said before Xue Man spoke: "Xue Man's son really asked me to wait." ”

Xue Man stopped when he heard the man's voice, motioned for the guards to retreat, and stood in the center of the hall with a smile: "Some things have been delayed, I remember that you have taken people away, and it should have nothing to do with us, I don't know what happened to Gongzi who came to me today?" ”

"Leaving the child? Could it be? As soon as Xi Ran heard Xue Man's words, he knew in his heart that the man's identity was the owner of the mansion they had investigated before, Ligongzi, but he didn't find anything unusual.

Now it seems that he has indeed joined forces with Xue Rongqing. After all, if you want to forge a clean identity here, you still need Xue Rongqing's help.

"Oh? You want to get rid of the relationship so quickly, don't think that this son doesn't know what you are doing. The Ligongzi said in a not very friendly tone.

"You are not doing anything good with each other. It's just that your father asked you to assassinate you before, but you didn't succeed. Now that his two companions are still in your hands, it should be much easier for you to assassinate again, right? Xue Man groped his way to the side and found a chair to sit down, and his momentum was not lost to Ligongzi.

"I'm afraid that the person you want to kill will not be able to do it, and the previous assassination has not been settled with you, so you have come to blame this son. At that time, you took advantage of the absence of Ben Gongzi to fake your will, and you also took away an elite team of Ben Gongzi, and in the end, no one returned, how to calculate this account? ”

Li Gongzi poured himself a cup of hot tea, blew it, took a small sip, and without waiting for Xue Man to say anything, he said again:

"But for the sake of the people you sent, we will write off this account, but this son also helped you catch those two people that day, their qualifications are very good, and they are very good hosts. But now you want to go back, and you want my son to help you assassinate, it's a bit too deceitful. ”

"Ligongzi, you don't like to listen to what you say. Although I haven't been involved in these things before, I've heard from my father that if it weren't for my father's reasons, I'm afraid you would have been exposed. So let's make it convenient for each other. ”

Xue Man listened to Li Gongzi's words, his eyelids couldn't help jumping up and down a few times, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, but he still responded politely, and the air began to slowly fill with a strong smell of gunpowder.

"This son also helped out for the sake of your father's face, what kind of ordinary people do you think you want to arrest those two people? And the target to be assassinated this time is the fifth prince, that is the future prince, let this prince go to assassinate in person, this difficulty is really not small, you have to open a good condition, right? ”

"You mean, those two people?" Xue Man seemed to understand what Li Gongzi wanted, and asked uncertainly.

"That's right, the Snow Barbarian is really smart, I don't know how?" Li Gongzi smiled, the corners of his mouth curled into a beautiful arc, and nodded in response.

"I can't make the decision on this, when I go back and ask my father to leave the prince again, but it's getting late today, and I can stay here for a few more days, so you can also go and see those two people, and wait for my news." Now these two people are still in your hands. ”

Xue Man waved his hand and said, he also guessed what kind of calculation Gongzi played, pinching soft persimmons still has to divide the situation, and now Xue Man is no longer the gentleman, so he hurriedly prevaricated.

"Okay, then Ben Gongzi will stay here for a few days, but Ben Gongzi's patience is not so much, please ask Xue Manzi as soon as possible, how about three days at the latest? If not, then there is no need for us to continue to cooperate. ”

After saying that, Gongzi got up, flicked his sleeves, came to Xue Man with his hands behind his back, bent down and whispered a few words in his ear, and saw Xue Man clenching his fists, the green tendons on his neck began to protrude, and he closed his mouth tightly, as if he was enduring something.

After leaving the child, he got up, with a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth, and walked to the door with his hands behind his back.

She found that things were getting less and less simple, what was the identity of that child? Listening to Ji Tao's prompt just now, who should those people be taken away, could it be Xue Man or someone who left Gongzi? I thought of the people I just said about Gongzi, they should be the craftsmen and relatives, and the other two must be Emperor Xuan Lie and Mo Hexin!

It's just that she never expected that the two of them would be locked up in this snowy mansion, and their life and death are uncertain.
