Chapter Eighty-Nine: Temptation
I returned to my room full of doubts and shock, and as soon as I closed the door, I heard a noisy sound outside: "Search for me! Don't let go of every corner!"
Soon, there was a rush of footsteps, and her door was slammed.
Hua Chengcheng hurriedly loosened his clothes, calmed down, and then yawned and opened the door: "Big brothers, it's so late, what's the matter?"
The guard who knocked on the door looked at the painting and asked, "Are you alone in the house?"
The painting Allure nodded innocently.
"Did you hear any strange noises or suspicious people knocking on your door?"
Hua Chengcheng rubbed his eyes and said inarticulately, "What suspicious people? I'll see you all this night." ”
The guard frowned, then said to the person behind him, "Go in and have a look." ”
Painting Allure secretly breathed a sigh of relief, anyway, there was no one hiding in her room, just look at it.
After the guard walked into the room and looked around, he found that there was nothing suspicious, and then he hugged his fist at the painting Allure: "What a disturbance, if you find any suspicious people, please tell us immediately." ”
Hua Chengcheng hurriedly replied politely: "It must be." ”
The guards searched the area around the east wing one by one, and finally found only a square scarf near the pavilion at the end of the east wing, and nothing else was found.
After the guards left, not long after the painting closed the door, there was a knock on the door, and it was not someone else who came back, but Aunt Hui.
"Auntie......"
"Shh......h Let's go inside. ”
As soon as Hua Chengcheng opened his mouth to shout, he was stopped by Aunt Hui.
Entering the room, Aunt Hui immediately asked with concern: "Allure, there is an assassin in the palace tonight, how are you doing?"
Hua Chengcheng shook his head: "I've been asleep in the house, if it wasn't for the palace guards knocking on the door just now, I wouldn't know what happened outside." ”
"That's good...... Aunt Hui breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "It seems that it must be the one who tried to kill the monarch in vain, and I was worried that we would detoxify the Gu poison in his body, so I couldn't help but choose to do it tonight." ”
Hua Chengcheng nodded thoughtfully. Cang Wunian was injured tonight, and the hidden weapon that hurt him was still a poisonous nail, it seems that the woman who used her fingernails as a hidden weapon must be inextricably linked with the person who plotted to kill Chu Yu under the Gu.
"Auntie, why don't we leave the palace tomorrow. The affairs of the royal family are not something we can interfere in, and the person who can murder the monarch will certainly not be a simple person. If we continue to stay here, in case we offend the initiator, I am worried about ......," said Hua Allure worriedly.
Aunt Hui nodded when she heard this, and after a moment of silence, she sighed again: "Even if you don't leave, your aunt will be helpless against that Gu poison." The magic of witchcraft is not something that can be solved by ordinary pills. It's just a pity that the silver pair we searched for news has not been found again. ”
......
In the Wuxin Temple, Cang Wunian returned to his room unconsciously, he changed his night clothes, applied some special muscle cream to the wound, and before he could deal with the blood-stained hand towel and the blood in the basin, he heard a rush of footsteps outside the door.
Cang Wunian hurriedly put on a nightgown, and with a wave of his hand, he hid all these things behind the screen in the house.
"Confused, open the door!" Xia Roumeng's anxious voice came from outside the door.
Cang Wunian frowned, this Wushan princess came at a really good time. After a slight pause, Cang Wunian walked to the door unhurriedly and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, Xia Roumeng threw herself into his arms, so that he couldn't die, Xia Roumeng's hand was still pressed on his wound, and he couldn't help but gasp in pain.
Forcibly suppressing the urge to push Xia Roumeng away, Cang Wunian patted Xia Roumeng's back with his hand a little stiffly, and asked softly, "Rou'er, what's wrong?"
Xia Roumeng leaned into his arms and whispered: "Just now, a guard came to report, saying that there was an assassin in the palace tonight and wanted to assassinate the imperial brother, but fortunately, the Luo Fan Dao person made arrangements in advance, otherwise...... I'm afraid that the royal brother will be more than lucky!"
"Did the assassin catch it?" asked Cang Wunian hurriedly.
"Nope. Two Assassins, a man and a woman, were said to have been wounded, but they were eventually allowed to escape. Xia Roumeng replied.
"Don't worry, since those two assassins didn't succeed tonight, I'm afraid they won't have another chance. Didn't that Mortal Daoist say that he could remove the Gu poison in His Majesty's body tomorrow?" Cang Wunian comforted.
Xia Roumeng slowly raised her head, and in the dim light, she could see a little bright light flashing in her eyes, and it seemed that tears were rolling in her eyes.
"You're right. When the sun sets tomorrow and the mortal Dao people have solved the Gu poison of the imperial brother, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and destroy the nine clans of the Gu people. Xia Roumeng said hatefully.
"This matter must be thoroughly investigated. But it's not too early now, so Rou'er should go back and rest early. Cang Wunian said patiently.
"Confused, you have also lived in my Heartless Palace for more than a month, how have I treated you in the past month, don't you feel it?" Xia Roumeng's tone was a little resentful.
Cang Wunian's scalp tightened when he heard this, this Wushan princess came to his bedroom in the middle of the night, was it to find a reason to push him to further develop the relationship between the two by taking advantage of the fact that there was an assassin in the palace?
But no matter how he thought about it, Cang Wunian felt that this matter was not quite right. From the time he was discovered by Luo Fan to the time he returned to the room to clean up his wounds, Xia Roumeng should have gotten the news and come here to find him. But it was just so coincidental that not long after he came back, Xia Roumeng came, could it be that she was suspicious of him?
Cang Wunian sighed deliberately: "Rou'er, you do treat me very well, but think about it, how good you treat me is different from other men?"
Xia Roumeng was stunned, and then said with some unwillingness: "Naturally, there is, I won't allow other men to always disobey my will like you." ”
Cang Wunian smiled: "Then let me ask you again, are you willing to recruit me as a colt and be loyal to me from now on?"
Xia Roumeng was silent, I have to say that Cang Wunian asked this question very trickily, she really never thought about recruiting a horse, let alone calling her face a horse.
Seeing that Xia Roumeng didn't speak for a long time, Cang Wunian sighed again: "Rou'er, your heart is not here with me." If I have a skin-to-skin relationship with you, it won't be long before you want to find another man. Then you'll never know what your heart really wants. ”
"No, Confused, I know what I want, but I know it, but I don't feel it. I'm afraid, I won't feel it in my life......" Xia Roumeng's faint tone revealed a little desolation, she gently pushed away Cang Wunian and slowly left the room.
"I know, but I can't feel ......," after Xia Roumeng left, Cang Wunian muttered thoughtfully.
Could it be that this princess of Wushan is just like him, she has no soul, or has she lost one of the seven spirits? But looking at her performance, she doesn't look like it, if she can't feel her own feelings, how can a woman have sex with other men at will? Even he, as a man, will instinctively reject this kind of thing.
Exhaled deeply, no matter what, to solve Chu Yu's problem quickly, he really didn't want to stay in this palace for a moment.
As soon as Xia Roumeng left, there was another knock on the door of Cang Wunian's room.
"Who?" asked Cang Wunian in a deep voice.
"It's me. An Ruyue's voice sounded outside the door.
Cang Wunian breathed a sigh of relief, got up and opened the door, and then grabbed An Ruyue's hand and dragged her into the room.
"Don't you know that the guards in the palace are patrolling at this time, why did they still come to me?" asked Cang Wunian with some displeasure.
"That's why slaves and maids come in. The guards said that there was an assassin in the Qiankun Palace tonight. Little prince, are you ......" An Ruyue asked worriedly.
Cang Wunian nodded lightly: "I did go, and I fought with that assassin." In terms of kung fu, the other party is not under me. ”
"I heard them say that one of them was wounded, little prince...... Are you injured?" An Ruyue asked with concern.
Cang Wunian's eyes condensed: "If you are careless for a while, you have been hit by the other party's secret weapon, and it is no big deal." I'm afraid that something will happen in the palace tomorrow, you inform Hei Kui and Hei Yao, don't act rashly without my order. ”
