The assassin was surprised to see that Xiao He was so clear about his plans, he really just gave her an ordinary elixir, which was used to heal her wounds, and it was not toxic. Xiao He also thought that she was taking poison at first, but as time went on, the assassin's attitude was not slow, and her pulse did not change from beginning to end, so she deduced that what she had eaten was not poison.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Xiao He asked rhetorically while looking around the furnishings in the house.

"If you want to kill me, you will do it a long time ago, why wait until now, besides, you think that you can win me alone?" There was confidence in the Assassin's tone.

However, he also told the truth, Xiao He was indeed not completely sure that he could defeat him in a solo fight, a killing move that was good at fighting for his life. She then changed her words, "Your headquarters is in the imperial capital?" Could it be that this Huan Ge Building is also related to Qinglong Hall? ”

The assassin seemed to have heard an extremely ridiculous joke, laughed out loud, and only replied after a moment: "For the sake of you finally helping me escape, I advise you, it is best not to track down the details of the Qinglong Hall." ”

Seeing that his mind was broken by the other party's words, Xiao He frowned slightly, "Then why did you bring me to this kind of place?" ”

"It's like a dock where you can take a break and you don't have to think too much about it. I'll let you go. He smiled lightly, "Although in your heart, I am a shameless person, but at least what I have said still counts." ”

Xiao He saw him smile, but he felt that there was still a bit of heroism between this person's eyebrows, and his face was also a little good-looking, and the slender scar on his left cheek was still due to himself. But it was that injury that made him a little gloomy.

Xiao He chatted with him a few more words, and when it came to the key issues, he was tight-lipped and couldn't say anything. Xiao He said that this person seems to be casual, but he is not a dull person, so he feels even more sorry.

"Then what's your name, you should be able to tell me, right?" Xiao He asked.

He raised his eyes to look at Xiao He, just about to ask her why she was curious about him.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, accompanied by a soft song of a woman, seemingly humming casually, but the tune was full of infinite tenderness, so that Wen couldn't help but stop and want to hear more of her voice.

But the assassin's face changed slightly, pulled Xiao He into the closet next to the hibiscus couch, and hinted to her with his eyes that she should hide it and not make a sound.

He closed the closet door and sat back on the edge of the bed when it was pushed open.

A pair of embroidered shoes inlaid with a large Dongzhu brocade stepped in front and back, a purple tulle dress wrapped in a brocade mink shoulder, although the clothes were thin, but the owner's face was ruddy, not afraid of the cold. She is the jade-faced Rakshasa of the Blue Dragon Hall.

She paced into the room, her skirt swaying and floating with a dark fragrance, and her gait was infinitely merry. She suddenly sat down next to him, her body was almost close to him, and then she leaned into his ear and said, "You are the only one who comes back, and the target is still not dead?" ”

He frowned slightly and said, "Almost." ”

"The Ten Palaces Yama failed to attack twice, you still have one last chance, don't blame me for not reminding you." The jade-faced rakshasa said softly, but the tone and expression seemed to be saying something sweet to his sweetheart.

Her slender fingers caressed his cheek, and she gently scraped a layer of impatiens on the whiplash scar that was just beginning to scab, "Don't break the rules." ”

He looked ahead, not squinting. They had worked together for so long, and they had rarely encountered such a tricky task, but when she thought of the rules in the hall, the jade-faced rakshasa was also a little reluctant, she climbed on his shoulder and leaned over, "You know, I don't want you to die either." Next ......"

She was about to offer a plan, but he suddenly grabbed her shoulders, pressed her down on the couch, and gagged her mouth with his lips.

Xiao He hid in the closet and listened to them, and suddenly it turned into a strange sound, which made her sweat. But there is still something to gain, at least I know that this person's nickname is called Ten Palaces Yama.

The jade-faced Rakshasa gave him a long kiss that suddenly attacked, although he was a little surprised, but he also enjoyed it, and was about to untie his shirt and continue the following things, but he held down his hand and said lightly: "You go first, I still have some things." ”

The jade-faced Rakshasa showed a slight anger on her face, "Hun people! teasing the slave family, and driving the slave family away! ”

His face remained as usual, and he said no more.

After a few moments, the jade-faced rakshasa cleaned up and left the room. As soon as she walked on her front foot, the Ten Hall Yama listened to her footsteps far away, so she opened the wardrobe and saw Xiao He's face crimson, and she was a little embarrassed for a while, and hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take her out.

"You go quickly, now we don't owe each other, and we won't be soft next time we meet."

Just now, in order to prevent the jade-faced Rakshasa from discovering that she was hiding in the cabinet, he actually took the initiative to forcibly kiss the woman, and he couldn't help but wipe his lips when he thought about it. In Qinglong Hall for so long, how many times did the jade-faced Rakshasa take the initiative to send it to the door, but he never cared.

Now that he is actually defending a strange woman, he is still an enemy who has injured himself twice, and he has even done such a thing as sacrificing hue, and he is in a complicated mood for a while.

Xiao He saw that he had already discovered his purpose, and there would be no result if he continued to follow, so he planned to leave through the main entrance, but was stopped by him, "Go through the back door." ”

Seeing Xiao He go out of the door and his emaciated figure disappeared into the alley, he withdrew his gaze.

After Xiao He returned home, Hongzhu cried so much that pear blossoms rained, "Childe, you're finally back!" ”

Previously, after Hongzhu received Xue Liangan's news, she hurriedly notified Han Chun, and sent out the manpower in the mansion to look for her inside and outside the city. Unexpectedly, in the end, she came back by herself.

Then the news of her return was immediately reported to Mu Churan. Although Mu Churan didn't come to see her immediately, he put down a stone in his heart and officially returned to the palace immediately.

The next morning, Mu Churan announced that Yin Pan Keyan of Jingzhao Mansion would be removed from his post and investigated, and asked the officials to select a suitable replacement as soon as possible.

There was an uproar in the court, and someone stepped forward and asked: "I don't know what crime Pan Keyan has committed, I hope Your Majesty will make it clear." ”

Mu Churan said coldly: "I was assassinated in Nanyuan, this is the top priority of Gyeonggi's defense, and he can't do it well, what else do I want him to do?" This was the first time Mu Churan announced the assassination of Nanyuan, and he quietly observed the reactions of the ministers below in the palace.

Li Zhaoting, the secretary of the household department, said that he was sick and did not go to court, and Lin En, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, was silent and silent. Some people were shocked and hurriedly asked the emperor if anyone was injured, and some people were furious and threatened to deal with Pan Keyan strictly, and even let the assassins infiltrate the royal forbidden garden, and the imperial guards could not get out of it, which attracted verbal refuge. Liu Zixin bore the brunt of the disaster, but Mu Churan just quietly listened to his subordinates' discussions, and did not reach a conclusion.

After Mu Churan glanced at the various states of the courtiers, her eyes fell on Xiao He, who stood there quietly, not participating in this discussion. Mu Churan couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart, sitting in this hall was so cold, only in that direction could he feel a little warm.

He remembered the time he spent with Xiao He before, which was about the happiest time in his life for more than 20 years. Now back in the palace, although there are only a few marble steps between them, they are actually close to the end of the world. If he hadn't learned that she was safe and could let himself look at her again, he really wouldn't be in the mood to go back to the palace to deal with government affairs.

The assassination of Nanyuan made him realize that although Qinglongtang acted under the banner of revenge for Tang Qinghua, it was too abrupt, if it weren't for the internal response in the court and the fact that they knew their whereabouts well, they would not be so bold.

That speculation can only show that there are remnants of the past still lurking around him. The situation in the court is not optimistic, what he wants to eliminate is not only the enemies disguised on his side, but also outside the territory of Dayin, there are barbarians in the north, the Dayue Rong clan in the west, and Fengguo in the south, and how many pairs of tigerish eyes are staring at him.

In order to avoid further turmoil, some personnel transfers have made it possible to operate in secret.

And as a king, looking at the court, there are so few credible people, how sad is it?

When he went down to the court, Wang Siyi, the secretary of the ministry, couldn't hide his joy, and he was followed by a group of people who followed him, complimenting him again and again. Soon after, it was the end of the year, and he held the power to select the replacement for Jingzhao Mansion Yin at this time, and it was self-evident how many people would take the opportunity to flatter and curry.

Xiao He walked up to the road, Duan Heng followed, he wanted to thank him in person, and he saved Duan Shengyi in Nanyuan before. Before Duan Heng could speak, Gonggong Liu hurriedly came out of the hall and called Xiao He away to say that His Majesty had something to summon him.

Xiao He glanced at Duan Heng, didn't bother to say anything, and followed Gonggong Liu.

She also guessed in her heart whether Mu Churan would be suspicious of herself again for the sake of Nanyuan's affairs, and interrogated herself.

After being taken to the imperial study, Gonggong Liu retreated.

Xiao He walked into the inner hall and saw Mu Churan standing on the edge of the bookshelf, flipping through a booklet.

"Are you alright?" Mu Churan didn't raise his head, and when he heard her come in, he asked directly, and his tone was familiar with a little cordial. He knew that she had returned from the Assassin's hands safe and sound, but he couldn't help but ask her a word himself.

Now that the dragon robe is in his body, he is back to the one with a cold face and a lofty voice, all he can do is to ask her softly afterwards if it's okay, and he can't even give her any reward in the open. Obviously, she saved herself again and again. She wants to hide her identity, but she can only help her hide it.

After Xiao He gave a salute, he replied: "Let Your Majesty bother, everything is fine with the minister, but unfortunately I haven't found out where the nest of Qinglong Hall is." ”

Mu Churan closed the book in his hand, put it back on the shelf, looked at her and said, "This matter is left to them to investigate, I have another matter that must be Aiqing." ”

Xiao He arched his hand and asked, "I don't know what Your Majesty wants to tell your ministers to do?" ”
