Murong Qianran stared intently at the door of the passenger station, and there were several subordinates standing behind him with straight waists and uniform black clothes, their red lips were slightly upturned, and they sneered: "If you get into trouble, you want to run, when I Murong Qianran eats rice?"

Then she turned around, glanced at the night rain that was buried in her head, and ordered with the domineering spirit of the king: "Arrest him and bring him back."

"Yes", Yeyu received the order, led the two men in black and left.

Murong Qianran looked at the others behind him again, "You guys go back too, you don't have to follow me."

The man in black hesitated, and when Murong saw that he didn't get a response, his phoenix eyes immediately narrowed into a slit, exuding a burst of coldness: "What?" Didn't you hear what I said"?

Seeing that the master was a little angry, all the black-clothed men knelt on the ground respectfully, and said in unison: "Subordinates obey orders", and then turned around and got on their horses and whipped away.

For the master who has never met, they have been looking forward to it in their hearts for a long time, but what they can see is a petite woman who looks very weak, which is somewhat unbelievable, and Murong Qianran happens to know how to figure out people's minds the most, so when he started with the dead man just now, he did not let others participate, the purpose was to establish his own prestige.

She was still half-squinting her phoenix eyes, without words, staring at her distant back, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking at this time.

"Miss, why don't you let your subordinates escort us", Xiao Tao saw that Murong Tianran didn't speak for a long time, and asked.

"There are many people, besides, I, the master I have never met, have a somewhat underestimated status in their hearts", she sighed lightly and said, it seems that the Assassination Hall should be reorganized.

The open space opposite the inn was full of straight corpses, the street was empty, Murong Tianran and Xiao Tao finished settling the account, and left quickly in the carriage, they didn't want to wait for the government to come and cause trouble again.

Out of the twilight city, turn to the water road to the next town, drive for three days and three nights, and finally arrive at the capital of Xuanyuan in the early morning of the next day.

Unexpectedly, when I first came here, I actually caught up with Xuanyuan's annual autumn lantern festival, and someone set up a stall on the street early, selling almost all lanterns, and the colorful lanterns dazzled Murong Qianran's eyes, and they were used as carriages and wandered on the side of the street.

"Miss..... Look, this is a phoenix, it's so beautiful", Xiao Tao walked to a stall full of lanterns, and gently touched the golden paper lantern.

Murong Qianran smiled indifferently, Xiao Tao is really a child who doesn't grow up, but if you look closely at the lifelike phoenix lantern, even the edging is very detailed, the pointed mouth is open, as if it is chirping, and the small eyes are also depicted so vividly.

"If the girl likes it, buy it, this is a unique lantern", the lantern was bought for the old man, at this time he was pasting the lantern in his hand, and when he saw someone standing in front of the stall, he stepped forward and smiled.

Murong Qianran nodded lightly, and was just about to ask the price, when a man suddenly stood beside him, pointed to the phoenix's lantern, and said without hesitation: "Uncle, help me wrap this lantern."

"Hey, this lantern is the first thing we saw", Xiao Tao said as she grabbed the handle of the phoenix lantern and looked at the man dissatisfied.

The man slowly turned around, glanced at Murong Qianran, and was slightly stunned, as if he was frightened by her ugly face, and replied unhurriedly after coming back to his senses: "This girl, you haven't paid for this phoenix lantern yet, have you?"

"That.... So what? Anyway, we have bought this", Xiao Tao saw the man looking at him, his cheeks were a little rosy unconsciously, but he was still unwilling.

The man smiled gently, but only at Xiao Tao, completely treating Murong Qianran as a transparent person, "Why is this girl so arrogant, since you didn't pay, then everyone has the right to choose fairly."

"You ........", Xiao Taoqi's whole body trembled, but he held the handle of the phoenix lantern and refused to let go.

"This is for you", Murong Qianran, who had been ignored for a long time, suddenly threw out a piece of silver, and the old man looked at the man and reached out to take it.

Seeing this, Xiao Tao looked happy, glared at the man, happily followed behind Murong Qianran with a lantern, and walked away all the way.

"Girl stay", the man shook his head helplessly, followed in a few steps, and blocked their way.

"Girl, I really like this phoenix lantern in the next, everything related to the phoenix, my mother also likes it very much, can the girl be an adult, sell this phoenix lantern with the next, and I will be very grateful to the next", the man waved his hands, the movements were very elegant, and he was obviously from a famous family.

"In that case, Xiao Tao, sell it to him", Murong Qianran on the side could finally speak.

Xiao Tao frowned slightly, looked at the young lady dissatisfied, pursed her cherry sip, and glanced at the man again, then unwillingly handed the phoenix lantern to the man: "Here you are."

After hearing this, the man was overjoyed, took out a silver ingot from his arms and handed it to Xiao Tao with both hands, "Thank you, girl."

Murong Qianran looked at the ingot of silver, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said with an indifferent smile: "I'm afraid that this son has the wrong intention, if you want to buy it, how can one ingot of silver be enough, besides, this phoenix lantern is unique."

"Girl, please bid", the man also pursed his lips and smiled, as if he didn't pay attention to this unreasonable request at all.

"One hundred taels of gold".

Xiao Tao couldn't help but be a little stunned when she heard her young lady lion open her mouth, and after hearing this, the man didn't hesitate to take out another silver ticket from his arms and handed it to Murong Qianran, and said gently: "This is five hundred taels of silver tickets, the girl put it away."

Murong Tianran calmly took the silver ticket, as if it was a matter of course, smiled at the ugly face, and turned to leave.

Xiao Tao wanted to say something, but when she saw that the young lady was gone, she quickly followed.

The man stared at the back of the person who was going there, gradually put away his smile, and a strange moment flashed his eyes, pinching the handle of the phoenix lantern, and went away.

Along the way, Xiao Tao kept asking Murong Qianran why he had to sell the things he bought for only ten taels of silver to the man for five hundred taels.

Murong Tianran swept the ornaments on the side of the street, and said casually: "What he said, everything related to the phoenix, his mother likes it, think about the whole world, who else can be worthy of the phoenix."

Xiao Tao thought for a moment, and suddenly realized, her smart eyes were extremely surprised: "Could it be ..... His mother was ..... Queen Mother or Empress"?

Murong Tianran turned around, gently poked Xiao Tao's forehead, pursed his lips and smiled: "It's not stupid, the monarch of Xuanyuan Country doesn't even have a queen now, if you say that you are worthy of a phoenix, you can only be the queen mother."

After hearing this, Xiao Tao spit out the tip of her pink tongue, "It's good that Miss sold the phoenix lantern to him, otherwise, the sin would be great."

Murong Qianran looked at Xiao Tao's playful appearance, and suddenly felt good, and pulled Xiao Tao into the most prosperous street and the most luxurious restaurant in Xuanyuan Capital, and had a meal in the sea.
