Chapter 25: The misunderstanding is resolved

The girl was obviously aware, but she still held her saber and looked wary.

"Tell me, why did you kill me, who sent you?"

The girl snorted coldly, her face was dusty, but her foundation was good, and her delicate little face puffed up angrily.

"It's good that you know I'm going to kill you, and knowing too much won't do you any good."

Cheng Liu shrugged slightly.

"You're going to kill me, and I still want you to be nice to me? What's more, with your strength, you are indeed no match for me, let alone my men, so you might as well tell me what your purpose is, and maybe I can let you go. ”

The girl snorted coldly.

"I'm leaving, can you stop me?"

Cheng Liu pointed out the window.

"There is a team of servants here, although they are not my people, but as long as there is turmoil here, they will block the inn as soon as possible, and then take the suspicious people away, you should have seen it when you come up, they are not idle people."

"Second, my personal guards are in the opposite room, if you do it at this time, they can rush over as soon as possible, since you can't jump out of the window and leave, and you can't swagger out of this door, you say, do you have any other way than I let you go?"

With such an explanation, the other party understood it thoroughly.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say, you want a girl, why do you want to assassinate someone in a good way?"

Cheng Liu had offended many people in Luoyang before, and even many high-ranking officials and nobles, but with the passage of time, those people may not intend to pursue them for a long time.

And in Danyang County, the policy he pursued was indeed not very friendly to some rich people, but it was just unfriendly, and it was not to the point of enmity at all, so this person suddenly thought of killing himself, and Cheng Liu was still a little incomprehensible.

"Would you believe me if I said it was just a misunderstanding?"

Cheng Liu nodded: "I can listen to your explanation." ”

"I followed you all the way from Danyang County to here, the purpose was not to assassinate you, that day in Linjiang, it was because of an accident, in fact, I didn't have any bad intentions, but at that time...... Maybe it's because of my weak heart, so I subconsciously fought with your people, but I know that my purpose is not to assassinate you. ”

Cheng Liu was a little surprised, he had imagined many results, but he didn't expect this kind of result.

"But if you don't kill me, why didn't you say it when I asked you just now?"

This girl is also a straightforward person, and replied directly: "I actually want to say, but when I think about it, people like you who are officials will not care about the life and death of civilians, I was regarded as an assassin at the beginning, and now that you see me, you will definitely get rid of me as soon as possible, so it is useless for me to explain more at this time." ”

"Rather than that, I might as well not explain."

After hearing this, Cheng Liu couldn't help but laugh and said, "But the sword just now was only a fraction away from my throat, if I couldn't react, wouldn't I die on the spot?" ”

She also laughed and said: "You have guards by your side, I have fought against those few people, I know that I can't beat them, and you know that I am here, and you deliberately support your personal guard, I think it is because you have confidence in your own strength, so you dare to take such a risk, my sword is just a temptation." ”

Cheng Liu actually understood, after all, that position, it was still easy to dodge, it was just a matter of reaction.

However, at this time, the focus was circled back, and Cheng Liu continued to ask: "Then what is the purpose of your approach to me?" ”

"It's simple, I want to join your escort."

Convoys?

Cheng Liu was a little confused.

"Who told you I had a convoy?"

The girl suddenly changed her aggrieved face, and said angrily: "That day, I went to your house to participate in the assessment, but I was eliminated in the first game, so I had no choice but to make this decision." ”

Cheng Liu was a little puzzled, this person's skills should be much better than when those people first came in, why wasn't he selected?

At this time, the girl took the initiative to explain: "Actually, I can only blame myself, I can't read words, so I ...... I went to the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting competition, and I didn't know until I started writing......"

"Poof......

Cheng Liu couldn't hold back at all......

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh out loud."

The girl snorted and continued: "But I want to try again, just now that sister won't let me compete, I don't want to say anything, I have no choice, I went to look for you with anger, but I just heard that you left Danyang County, I can only chase after you quickly, and finally catch up with you in Linjiang......"

It turned out that what had happened was like this, and Cheng Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that he knew that the other party had no malicious intent, he also took off his defense.

"What's your name?"

"Jiang Xue."

After she finished speaking, she added: "But you can call me Xiaoxue, because ......"

Cheng Liu hurriedly waved his hand: "Eh, don't be so detailed, I just asked casually." That Xiaoxue, I think your light skills are not bad, I can keep you by my side, but my side is not just as simple as protecting me. ”

Jiang Xue nodded in understanding.

"Your martial arts are so high, you obviously don't need protection."

Cheng Liu continued: "Since staying by my side is safer than protecting me, you need to spy on intelligence, of course, you don't need it now, so you can only be my escort for the time being, but then I want you to leave my side." ”

Jiang Xue nodded: "It's okay, I know." ”

After finishing the general situation, Cheng Liu was about to leave the room, and suddenly thought of something.

"I'm still curious, why did you suddenly think to follow me?"

Jiang Xue hesitated for a moment, but still said: "You have been in Danyang County for a few days, and you have made the people talk about it, and those places where the people themselves are strong have praised you, and I occasionally hear a little, and I also know that you are indeed a good official for the good of the people, so I plan to follow you." ”

It turns out that the reason is so simple, and it is in the charm of his own personality.

Cheng Liu's heart is secretly cool, if this is placed in modern times, it should be his fan, right?

"What about your family?"

"I ...... I'm actually an orphan, I've been alone since I was a child, and I used to work with a busker master, so I learned some skills. ”

Cheng Liu nodded slightly, what should be said is finished, and it is time to go to the carriage for the night.

Walk outside, close the door, and go straight down the stairs.

But the more he walked, the more he felt that something was not right.

"Hey? No, since it didn't hurt me, you could let her sleep with sweet potatoes, so I could live in this room? ”
