Xiao He didn't want to admit it, but there was indeed a subtle connection between her and Mu Churan, which she could feel every time she was by his side.

At this moment, she had a million reasons to run away from him, but she couldn't take a single step as if she had taken root under her feet. She looked at him, reminding herself not to forget her family feuds, and at the same time seemed to find a bond with the memories of the past.

The vision that emerges eventually becomes a dream.

In the end, Xiao He still rushed out of the palace before the palace gate was under the key. She was afraid that if she didn't return overnight, someone in the family would be worried.

After leaving the palace, she subconsciously turned the jade wrench on her thumb, and her heart was heavy.

After drinking a few doses of medicine, Xiaoshan's complexion improved a lot.

Listening to Xue Liangan, the poison on his body was brought out of his mother's womb, and it has been lurking in him for more than ten years, although the recent attack is not the first time, but I am afraid it is the most violent. The specific toxicity is unheard of, and it is guessed that it is not produced in the Central Plains, and he has to go back to study the medical book again.

The current prescription has restrained the toxicity of his symptoms and conditioned his body. It is indeed difficult to completely detoxify, but everything in the world always has a mutual restraint, and there must be an antidote to poison, but it will take a little longer.

Xiao Hecai showed a reassuring expression, "That's good." ”

Xue Liangan hesitated again and again to express his doubts: "When I checked the pulse of this little brother, I found that his pulse was different from ordinary people, and his identity was unknown, even if he was the younger brother of Gongzi's righteous brother, it was really suspicious. If Childe is inconvenient, I can arrange for him to recuperate elsewhere. ”

Xiao He shook his head, "Brother Dai believes in me, so he entrusts him to me, no matter what, I will protect him well." ”

Xue Liangan saw her resolute attitude, so he didn't say more, on the other hand, he was glad in his heart, Xiao He was not the one who blinded everything for revenge, at least she still had good thoughts in her heart, and she was by no means a selfish person.

A few days later, Mu Churan found a letter in the fold, which was written by Zuo Cheng Liu Shenming, and when he opened the content, it was written by Liu Yingluo, the daughter of Liu Shenming.

The letter mentioned that she had selected a good son-in-law through a contest and asked the emperor to grant marriage. Mu Churan smiled lightly, the Queen Mother looked away for the first time, and tried every possible way to stuff it into her own people, but they didn't mean to enter the palace at all.

Then he couldn't laugh, the lover named by Liu Yingluo turned out to be Xiao He.

If it were someone else, he would have swiped his pen and the decree would have gone out.

But how could it be Xiao He?

So Mu Churan could only announce that Liu Shenming came and inquired in person to see what was going on and whether there was any misunderstanding. Who knew that when he asked, Liu Shenming was first shocked, and then he looked confused, not knowing at all. Then his face was a little angry, and he hurriedly retreated, presumably to go back to his home to understand the reason for himself.

After Liu Shenming retreated, he immediately announced Xiao He to come over.

"What's the matter with you and the daughter of the Liu family?" Mu Churan asked straight to the point, and simply showed her the letter.

Xiao He looked at the familiar handwriting, and followed the inscription, "Yingluo ......"

A faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips, it turned out to be really her.

Once when they went to school together in a private school, they fought over who was the older sister, but in the end they became friends who talked about everything. It's a short time, but it's a joyful time.

It's just that she left Duan Heng's name that day, and now Yingluo personally wrote to the emperor, saying that she won the competition to recruit relatives, so it seems that Duan Heng sold herself again.

After reading the letter, Xiao He said: "Your Majesty, this is indeed the case, and the minister did win Miss Liu's martial arts competition that day. ”

Mu Churan had a headache, did he really want to give Liu Yingluo to marry her, so that everyone in the world would know that she was a daughter and that she had committed the crime of defrauding the king?

"Nonsense!" He pinched his temples and said in a deep voice. I really don't know what she's thinking, or is she just here to block herself?

Xiao He continued: "I am afraid that my family background will not be able to climb Miss Liu's family, but I do have great admiration for Miss Liu's talent, and I hope that Your Majesty will be successful." ”

Her words reminded Mu Churan that judging from Liu Shenming's expression before, she didn't know anything about this matter, and it might just be a countermeasure made by Miss Liu in order to avoid marrying into the palace. It's a pity that Miss Liu chose the wrong person, but if Liu Xiang doesn't agree to this marriage, he doesn't have to be embarrassed, and the matter of beating the mandarin duck will be left to Liu Xiang himself, and he doesn't have to worry about finding any excuse for her.

But Xiao He still doesn't know how to advance or retreat, as if he is more energetic than Mu Churan.

"Your Majesty, although the minister is from a poor background, the minister is also sincere to Miss Liu!"

Mu Churan sneered, "Is this true? He paced in front of Xiao He and looked down into her eyes. Xiao He lowered his head to avoid his gaze, but he hooked his chin with his fingers, and slightly forced her to look at him.

"I remember that Aiqing once said that I have not established a harem for a day, and you will never dare to be greedy for pleasure, but now you are thinking about Miss Liu, have you forgotten the agreement with me, and the monarch and the minister are of the same heart?"

Xiao He arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, this time and that time ......" She was about to move out of the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety, explaining why she wanted to marry Miss Liu, when she heard Mu Qingwan's voice at the door of the study, "Brother Huang!" ”

At this time, the princess arrived, and Xiao He secretly screamed in his heart.

She was about to ask Mu Churan to retreat, but was pulled by Mu Churan, "Aiqing, don't be in a hurry to leave, listen to what Qingwan will say about your marriage with Miss Liu." Xiao He couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine, she may be in harmony with this imperial city, and it is difficult to have a harmonious relationship with the masters in this palace.

Needless to say, the Queen Mother was even more eager to die by herself, the only princess who was not hostile to herself, but she always ran after her. What a sad word, if she knew about her affair with Liu Yingluo, I am afraid that she would be able to make trouble before it was done.

Xiao He immediately made a decision and said to Mu Churan: "The minister thinks it's better to think about this matter again, there is still something to deal with in the Jixian Palace, so the minister will not delay the discussion between His Majesty and the princess, and retire first." ”

She secretly made a lot of effort to break free from Mu Churan's hands, saluted Mu Qingwan at the door and left in a hurry.

Although Mu Qingwan didn't chase him over, he did hope to see him, but now that he saw it, he could only sigh at his back. After entering the imperial study, Mu Qingwan couldn't help but lose her temper with Mu Churan, "Why didn't the imperial brother stop Lord Xiao, why did he let him go first?" ”

Mu Churan remembered Xiao Heyi's expression when he heard that Qingwan was coming, as if he was facing a great enemy, running faster than a rabbit, he couldn't help laughing, and suddenly had an idea, since she had to let herself get married, why not let her be a colt and let her taste the taste of telling lies to the king.

What kind of expression will she see on her face at that time, Mu Churan is a little curious.

Xiao He walked out of the imperial study and walked back to the Jixian Palace. On the way, she met a group of patrol guards, and when she passed by the person at the end of the line, her afterglow swept over the man's cheeks, but suddenly there was a hint of familiarity.

Fang turned around and stopped them.

"I wonder what the adults command?" The guard at the head replied.

Xiao He turned his mind around, and said casually: "I need someone to help lift heavy objects, I can't find anyone else at this time, just come and help with anyone." As she spoke, she gestured to the guard at the end of the line, whose head was so low.

"Hey! The newcomer is not clever yet! Why don't you follow the adults? ”

Xiao He turned around and left, and the new guard followed her after receiving the order.

When he was about to arrive at the Jixian Palace, she turned around along the path under the corridor, and she led him to the edge of the small courtyard behind the hall.

"Ten halls of Yama? Why, I couldn't get along in the Qinglong Hall, so I came to the palace to be a guard? There was no one around, so Xiao He spoke.

When the "guard" saw that his identity was revealed, he didn't need to pretend again, raised his head and smiled lightly, "Can Lord Xiao raise your noble hand?" ”

Xiao He also smiled, "Mingren doesn't say dark words, and you don't want to be my three-year-old child." Are you here to assassinate Churan? When are you ready to start? ”

The Ten Halls Yama smiled and pondered for a moment before asking, "Aren't you going to expose me?" What is your purpose? ”

"Do you believe it or not, for the same purpose as you?" Xiao He kept smiling.

"Believe it or believe it." The Ten Temples Yama looked at her.

"If I wanted to expose you, when I ran into you just now, I would have shouted to arrest the assassin, do I need to talk so much nonsense with you?" Xiao He's sentence is true.

The Ten Palaces Yama didn't believe in her very much, but he could only believe in her. In order to break into the inner courtyard of the palace, he also spent a lot of effort, mixed his face to be familiar with the patrol guards, this time to assassinate Mu Churan is just one of the tasks, and there is also a secret agent to the palace of the mission, which is newly assigned by the hall master.

Not counting today, he still has seven days left, and if he doesn't complete the task by then, his dignified killer will be reduced to the point of poisoning death.

"If Your Excellency really has the same purpose as me, then don't save people next time, even if it is helping." The tone of the Ten Hall Yamas was a little sarcastic.

Xiao He remembered that the first few times it was because of her actions that he ruined his good deeds, and couldn't help but laugh deeper, "Is the Ten Palaces Yama a nickname or a code name, what is your real name, and can't you tell it a secret?" ”

"Whether it's a nickname or a code name, it's just one name. I have forgotten what my real name is. His expression was calm, not fake.

Xiao He didn't care, "That's good to call you Xiaoshi, it's too long for me to remember." ”

Many years later, the Ten Palaces Yama, or Xiao Shi recalled the picture at that time, the woman smiled calmly, and set a name for herself at will, making him forget for a moment that he was the top Heavenly Killer of the Qinglong Hall, and his hands were bloodthirsty, as if he was just an ordinary person, and any elf and eccentric woman broke into his heart.

When he was still a little distracted, Xiao He had already turned to leave, his voice was fluttering, and his familiar tone seemed to have known him for many years, "The palace is heavily guarded, and your martial arts are not too good, be careful." ”
