"So, you even gave away your own reputation and mine?"

"There are a lot of new things in the imperial city, true and false, false and true, who really cares? It's just gossip for fun. If a more interesting wind blows at this time, the matter will soon pass. ”

Her strong words really made Xiao Huaijin angry, so she could only raise her hand and poke her forehead: "Do you know that if you are convicted, you will be punished." ”

"But this matter is just a matter of chasing after the wind, and there is no evidence for conviction, right?"

"In this world, not everything needs proof."

Wanxiang leaned towards him, bending a pair of crescent-like eyes: "But my husband is the regent, even if the evidence nails people to death, my husband has the ability to snatch me back." ”

"What if I don't want to?"

"Then I can only be a revenant under the knife, and the prince will be a widower again~"

"You ......"

She just looked at Xiao Huaijin like this, and she couldn't beat or say anything, so she could only smile and take her into her arms: "The red pupil is even more different from ordinary people, treacherous and smart." If you want to solve him, you can't rush it.

I have no time to be idle these days, why don't I wait for Liang Cuo to come back before I do it? ”

"General Liang has every opportunity, you are a soldier, a grain and a treasury, and he has no skills. It's still the same as before, and I'll do it in secret. ”

Xiao Huaijin didn't seem to find a reason to refute, pursed the corners of his mouth and stopped talking, but he looked thoughtful. If it had been two years ago, maybe she would have thrown a whetstone at her and told her to sharpen her knives.

But now Xiao Huaijin has nothing left but worry.

……

The night is getting cooler, and the rain disturbs the lotus pond.

Xiao Xiao's light rain was good for sleeping, but Wanxiang didn't fall asleep, looking at the candle flame at the scimitar that had not been stained with human blood for a long time.

Willow leaf scimitar, chasing souls and asking for life.

The blade is exquisite, the handle is exquisite, and the twenty-five hand-forgings are not unparalleled in the world, but they are also cold and chic.

Wanxiang plans to use this knife to claim another person's life. But in her own heart, she is not completely sure.

How can the red pupils beside King Xiang be idle? That's the first one in the imperial city called Wanxiang who will frown when he hears it.

But it is precisely because of this that he is tricky, so he threatens Xiao Huaijin, and Wanxiang must get rid of him.

Even if Juanxiang feels that she is not as good as before, there is always a half-chance of winning the matter. For Wanxiang, everything is decided, and she dares to give it a go.

This time it was the same, she calculated that Qi Yu would find a way to lure Chitong to come, and she calculated that Xiao Huaiyue would not dare to come to Pingnan Wangfu to ask for someone. The worst is the worst, as long as he is sleepy, he can cure him of a big crime that Xiao Huaiyue can't exonerate.

This time, what is the reason not to do it?

There was a sinister smile on the smiling face in front of the case, and his eyes were lowered and he looked at the blade obliquely, such a smooth and sharp blade was really itchy.

Even more so that Wanxiang couldn't help but reach out to touch it, but as soon as her hand touched the blade, she felt cold, and blood droplets flowed down into the knife relief.

The thin eyebrows didn't wrinkle, and Wanxiang didn't care about her hands, just picked up the handkerchief on the side to wipe the blood stains on the knife.

Put the knife back in the sheath and bring the wrist guards, because the sky is almost dawn, and it is time for Wanxiang to get up and go to Qionghuatai. Xiao Huaijin patrolled the western camp at night, and he had not returned to the house at this time, so he wanted to order the soldiers of the palace to be scattered all over the palace in disguise, and the weapons were hidden in the grass.

The palace looked as calm as a lake, but the maid who was working with her head didn't know that every step taken by Wanxiang was pulling the surging dark tide.

The drizzle wet the oil-paper umbrella, the door of Qionghuatai was hidden, and Wanxiang stood in the corner and quietly looked inside.

Seeing Qi Xiao sitting in front of the desk, his red pupils kneeling on the ground.

Qi Xiao was not in a hurry to speak, only poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chitong: "Although it is almost ambushed, but the rain is cold, drink a cup of tea to warm up." ”

The red pupil was unmoved, kneeling in place and looking at Qi Xiao vigilantly: "Thank you, madam, the red pupil doesn't dare to exceed the rules." ”

"It's just a cup of tea, what's not overdone?" Qi Xiao smiled kindly: "You know, I am not a serious master.

When he was in Qi Hou Mansion, he was not welcomed, and now he is just a decoration in Pingnan Palace. King Xiang lifted, let me call him brother-in-law, you are the brother-in-law's arm, and the 'master' and 'servant' between us don't have to be so clear. ”

"Red Pupil still has important things to do, and I ask Mrs. to speak up about what is the matter with Red Hitomi."

Seeing that the red pupil oil and salt did not enter, Qi Xiao looked a little anxious and embarrassed, raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Wanxiang, and Wanxiang shook his head at her.

Chi Tong was too cautious, and Juan and Qi Yu couldn't find a gap to poison them.

Qi Ji stood up and said to Chitong: "I have something I want you to take back, so I must hand it over to my sister." ”

After saying that, she turned to leave, her footsteps were not finished, and the red pupil stared at the teacup in front of Ya's eyes and suddenly realized that something was wrong, and just as she wanted to get up and leave, a three-inch-long arrow slashed through the red pupil's face from the darkness.

Then the familiar willow leaf scimitar slashed in front of him, and Akira appeared so suddenly that the red pupil couldn't dodge and had to grab Akika's wrist with brute force first.

Qi Xiao ran out of the back door of Tingyutai and was sent to the south courtyard as promised, and the government soldiers outside found the weapons hidden in the corner when they saw people.

The front door and the back door of the rain platform were opened together, and the door was blocked, and the bow and arrow jumped on the wall and the arrow pointed at the red pupil.

These government soldiers trapped Qionghuatai as firmly as an iron bucket, locking the incense and red pupils in the courtyard like a cage.

Before the red pupil could react, he had already been kicked out three steps away by Akika.

The two confronted each other in the rain, and the crown of the wolf's head tied to Juanxiang's head was wet, and the hair was soaked. The clouds were so black that the whole sky was still gray, and the raindrops hit people's eyes, making it even more difficult to see what was in front of them.

Standing in the rain, Wanxiang's hands began to tremble for some reason, and Wanxiang tried her best to control it to make herself look as calm as ever: "It turned out to be someone from King Xiang's side, did you come to see Mrs. Qi for King Xiang and Princess Xiang?" ”

"I've seen the princess."

"Even if you are a distinguished guest, why don't you put your name on the post? Could it be that the threshold of my Pingnan Wangfu is not high enough, and only the courtyard wall is worthy of Xiangwang Yubu. ”

"I believe that when the regent was still the sixth prince, the princess did not do less things to climb over the wall and go to the tiles."

"You can walk through other people's yards, but the regent's backyard doesn't allow you to be presumptuous. But you just entered the door of Qionghuatai and frightened Mrs. Qi, even if it is your master, he can't protect you. ”

"You don't dare to kill me."

Seeing that the red pupil was so determined, Wanxiang raised her knife and pointed it at him: "Between this heaven and earth, I really haven't met anyone I dare not kill." ”

The red pupil also smiled rarely, and looked at Wanxiang in awe: "Then please ask the princess to teach." ”

He said flattering words on his lips, but secretly touched his waist, and as soon as his left hand moved, he immediately noticed it, and rushed over with a knife to stir up the rain with the intention of preemptively.

The willow leaf scimitar slashed across the red pupil's eyes, and he saw that Wanxiang's hand holding the handle of the knife was trembling slightly. When the red pupil saw it, she dodged and looked for an opportunity, wanting to use her strength to raise her hand and hit her wrist, but Wanxiang missed it so easily, and made the scimitar fly out.

Chi Tong knew that he could not escape from the palace, and he only thought that Dora would go on the road alone, and there was no doubt that Juanxiang was the best choice.

So as soon as he saw that Wanxiang had no weapons, he rushed to Wanxiang desperately, and swept past Wanxiang like a swift wind, but the knife in his hand did not stick to Wanxiang's body.

Wanxiang dodged lightly, and the red pupils rushed out and fell straight to the ground.

Apart from the sword cut on his face, there were no other wounds on his body, and the blood from the corners of his mouth was scattered in the water as he lay on the rain-soaked stone slab.

knew that the moment before he died, the red pupil didn't understand how he fell.

Wanxiang looked at him with lowered eyes and whispered: "I didn't want to wait for you for so long, but the sleeve arrow missed and the poison was too slow."

You're just waiting here to breathe, and then I'll order someone to ...... you Divide it into three parts, hide it in a swill bucket, carry it out of the palace in three days, and pour it in different places.

Make sure your master won't find anything. ”

Red Hitomi watched as Akika took the oil-paper umbrella handed over by someone, stared at her, and looked at her until she disappeared into the rain, and his pupils gradually dilated.

The red booties were reflected in the red eyes.

……

The water of Qingming Pool gently wrapped the incense, expelling the coldness left by the rain when it soaked on her. Akika raised her arm and looked at it repeatedly, as the regent's secret guard, she didn't know why her hand couldn't hold her weapon.

It's even less clear why it trembles when it fights.

Thinking of this incense, he sighed lightly, put down his hand, and splashed white water on the water. She picked up the wine glass and asked Qiu Di beside her, "The prince hasn't come back yet, has he?" ”

"Not yet."

"Before the prince returns, be sure to dispose of the corpse of the red pupil."

"Yes."

Ayaka closed her eyes to calm herself down, burying herself in the steaming mist. After a while, okra came: "Princess, King Xiang is here." ”

"It's coming so soon."

"Yes, the gate of the palace has not even opened, and they have come to the door." Qiu Di asked, "Does the princess want to meet?" ”

"It's not good, I don't see." So Akika got up from the water, and Akira wrapped her robe to wipe off the water on her body, and after dressing up, she went to the front hall.

Xiao Huaiyue is a person who cannot be slackened, since he came when Xiao Huaijin was no longer in the house, there is no reason for people to return in disappointment.

Red gauze cloud brocade shoes, looking at the dazzling figure from a distance, you know that it is the fragrance coming. After entering the house, Aki Di stood aside and shook the rain on his umbrella.

Xiao Huaiyue sat in the front hall, and when she looked up, she was still as amazing as when she stood on the city tower at the palace banquet that year.

But at this moment, Xiao Huaiyue will not forget the purpose of her trip because of her appreciation for her. He got up and bowed to Wanxiang: "Sixth sister-in-law." ”

"It's really unfortunate that King Xiang came, my prince went to the western suburbs yesterday to patrol the camp and hasn't come back yet."

"Sixth brother went to the western suburbs?"

"Well, it was said that he was caught off guard by killing those people, and he led people to pretend to attack the city in the middle of the night."

Xiao Huaiyue couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "The sixth brother is invincible and invincible, and after his round of offensive, I'm afraid he will frighten people." ”

Wanxiang followed with a smile in agreement: "How can there be any winning generals, but it's just a chess opponent?" ”

"When will the sixth brother come back?"

"I haven't said it, if it's not very important, just talk to me."

"This matter is indeed to ask the sixth sister-in-law."

"You say."

Xiao Huaiyue leaned forward slightly and asked in a low voice, "The sixth sister-in-law can see the red pupils?" ”
