Guo Ping didn't expect Ning Yi to insert it diagonally, so he could only endure the stuffiness in his chest.

The hall returned to the peaceful atmosphere of singing and dancing, and at the end of the song, Zhao Yancheng clapped his hands a few times and said: "Sure enough, the dancing posture of this dancing girl in Xizhou City is in line with the customs of various countries, and it is unique——"

Guo Ping's smile was in line with that, Ning Yi just tasted the sake in the cup by himself, Guo Ping saw that Zhao Yancheng gave him a look, so he also stubbornly said: "I heard that there is a powerful lady in the prince's mansion, and if you want to come to this great song and dance, you must also miss it very much, why don't you pick a few for the prince to go back to Xiliang with the prince?" ”

Ning Yi didn't shirk it, so he responded with a smile.

Guo Ping took the opportunity to say: "Seeing that Lord Shangshu also likes it, why don't you choose a few to go back?" ”

Qi Xiao's heart moved, sure enough, Zhao Yancheng was planning to take someone back, there must be the Jiang family, Zhao Yancheng waved his hand casually: "Just her - it's inconvenient if there are too many people, I'll take one person back to train the dancing girl in the mansion." ”

The woman who was pointed at looked overjoyed, hurriedly stepped forward, and happily blessed a salute, and said, "Slave and maid, Lord Cuihe Xie is very kind—"

It's not Jiang's, from the body shape to the posture, to the voice of the voice, it is very different from the Jiang family.

Guo Ping asked people to go down to prepare their bags, and the hall was staggered, and Qi Xiao was also dragged to forcibly drink a few glasses.

After the wine, the sky gradually darkened, Guo Ping raised his glass and got up, and said loudly: "The two of you came to Xizhou City this time, and the hospitality was not considerate, and I ask you to forgive me again, but there is no feast in the world, and I don't leave two more in the next, I wish you two a safe journey." ”

A grand feast came to an end, Qi Xiao was suddenly a little frustrated, Peng Yu had already arrived with rain and snow, bustling outside the door, Xiliang's team, Dali team, each orderly sorted out their outfits.

Qi Xiao stood beside Guo Ping and looked at him coldly, Guo Ping didn't want to pay attention to him, but sighed with hatred.

Yuxue saw Qi Xiao and whispered a few words to Peng Yu, Peng Yu also looked in Qi Xiao's direction, and then nodded.

Yuxue walked around the carriage towards Qi Xiao, he had something to ask Qi Xiao, his steps were a little hurried, and he didn't notice a person passing behind the carriage.

The man was wearing a coarse gray cloth robe, and his hair was also in a simple maid's bun, with his head hanging down, and he looked humble, clearly the maidservants of those dancing girls, and I think this person was the maidservants of Cuihe.

She and Yuxue were both in a hurry, so they collided head-on, Yuxue was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly leaned over to apologize, but the strange thing was that the woman didn't seem to dare to let Yuxue see her face, so she hurriedly turned sideways and lowered her voice and said, "It's okay-"

But it was just a simple sentence, and he left in a hurry.

The rain and snow were unknown, and they continued to go in the direction of Qi Xiao.

He pulled Qi Xiao to a place where there were few people and asked, "Brother Qi, what are you going to do?" ”

Qi Xiao's eyes didn't want to let go of anyone in the field, Zhao Yanchen would definitely take Jiang Shi away, but who was she pretending to be?

Hearing Yuxue say this, Qi Xiao's heart was shaken, and he gently pulled Yuxue and said: "If you want to say that you believe in Brother Qi, you will go to Xiliang with that prince, who is the person behind the Great Calendar, we still don't know, the enemy is in the dark, we are in the light, there is really no advantage." ”

Yuxue frowned and said, "What about you?" ”

Qi Xiao clenched his fists, and suddenly said, "I still have something to do, if I do it, I will definitely go to you." ”

Yuxue nodded, but Peng Yu said anxiously as if something had happened: "Have you seen Zhou Qiang?" Yesterday I thought he was just out drinking, but why hasn't he shown up yet? ”

Yuxue and Qi Xiao glanced at each other, then shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.

Peng Yu frowned and said, "No, I'm going to tell the lord-" After speaking, he left in a hurry.

Yuxue couldn't help but say: "Why are they all rampage and hurried today." ”

Qi Xiao said casually: "Oh? Zhou Qiang is Peng Yu's subordinate, and if he is gone, he must be anxious, but who else is there besides him? ”

Yuxue thought for a while and said, "There is another one, I accidentally bumped into her just now, who knew that she didn't even let me finish speaking, and left after saying that it was okay." ”

Qi Xiao seemed to feel that something flashed in his mind, and asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”

Yuxue recalled carefully: "It's a middle-aged woman in gray cloth, it seems that it should be the maid of the Cuihe girl." ”

Middle-aged woman!

Qi Xiao instantly grasped the point of these words, he wrapped his hands around Yuxue's arms, and asked, "Who are you talking about?" Where is it? ”

Yuxue didn't understand why Qi Xiao was so excited, but she also pointed to the location of one of the carriages, and Qi Xiao saw that the carriage had lowered the curtain and was about to leave, so she hurriedly ran over and stopped in front of the carriage.

The driver of the car, seeing Qi Xiao's officers and soldiers, knew that it was Guo Ping's subordinates, so he also hurriedly pulled the carriage and said respectfully: "This official, you are-"

Qi Xiaozheng pulled out the long sword on his waist, and the coachman didn't even see how Qi Xiao moved, only heard a tearing sound, and the carriage curtain was actually cut by the sharp long sword.

Cui He screamed, Qi Xiao was short, and his movements were as fast as lightning towards the gray-clothed maid behind Cui He, but he didn't want to suddenly hear a strong wind in his ears.

Qi Xiao subconsciously waved his hand to block, but he didn't want the man to shoot quickly and ruthlessly, so he knocked the defenseless Qi Xiao out of the carriage.

Qi Xiao took two steps back before standing firmly, and Yuxue subconsciously flashed behind Qi Xiao and drew the long sword in his hand.

The scene was chaotic for a while, Peng Yu's face was ugly, and he glanced at the carriage, and Cuihe was shrunk in the corner trembling with a frightened face.

However, the maid goddess was indifferent, just sitting in the corner with her head down, as if she was accompanying her master, but in fact it was not.

There was a gradual commotion around him, Peng Yu looked at Qi Xiao with a solemn face, and said, "Qi Xiao, what are you going to do?" ”

Qi Xiao looked at the carriage coldly: "Peng Yu, don't tell me you don't know who is doing in this carriage?" Will you also protect her? ”

A look of embarrassment flashed on Peng Yu's face, and then he turned his face away and said softly: "I'm sorry, I can't be the master of this matter-"

Qi Xiao knew that Peng Yu had no way to resist Zhao Yancheng's order, and if he could, he wouldn't have waited until now.

The coldness in Qi Xiao's eyes was even worse, Guo Ping saw the commotion, he was busy, and when he saw that the initiator turned out to be Qi Xiao, his angry eyes were about to burst into flames, and he scolded loudly: "Qi Xiao! What are you doing! Are you crazy! ”

Qi Xiao just stared at the humanity in the carriage: "My lord, as the parent official of Xizhou, is this how you shield the murderer?" ”

Guo Ping didn't expect such a subtle plan, it was actually seen through by Qi Xiao, his face was ugly, Zhao Yancheng naturally inquired, and when he saw Peng Yu guarding the carriage, his heart was relieved, Guo Ping spread his hands a little dejectedly, Qi Xiao's character He understood it during this time, but he didn't know that he was such a thorn in the past.

Zhao Yancheng waved his hand slightly and said, "Qi Xiao, how about we talk about the conditions?" ”

Yuxue leaned closer and said in a low voice, "Brother Qi, be careful of deception." ”

Qi Xiao nodded without changing his face, and said to Zhao Yancheng: "Since you want to talk about the conditions, then good, my request is very simple, leave Second Lady Lan behind, and it has nothing to do with Qi Xiao whether the adults leave or stay." ”

Zhao Yancheng suddenly chuckled and said, "Second Mrs. Lan? Don't you know that Second Lady Lan had committed suicide last night? There are so many things in the city that everyone knows, you are not confused. ”

Qi Xiao didn't want to waste any more words with these people, he moved his pace slightly, Guo Ping had already acquiesced to Zhao Yancheng taking away the Jiang family, and it was impossible to stand on his side, so everything could only be on his own, he turned his head to Yuxue, and said in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "You help me contain Peng Yu-"

Yuxue bowed slightly, Peng Yu naturally sensed Qi Xiao's intentions, and he raised his voice: "Qi Xiao, don't do foolish things, do you know that disobeying orders is a capital crime." ”

Qi Xiao ignored it, found the opportunity, and suddenly burst out, thinking that it was an arrow that had been off the string, and ran straight in the direction of the carriage, not caring at all that he exposed his back to Peng Yu and the others.

Zhao Yancheng's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand behind him, and the casual guards also showed their weapons one after another, and they were bound to kill Qi Xiao.

Although Yuxue's injuries had not yet fully healed, he also rushed to the direction of Qi Xiao by taking advantage of his short stature.

Seeing that Peng Yu's long sword went straight to Qi Xiao's back, suddenly the figure in front of him flashed, it turned out to be rain and snow, Peng Yu put away the sword style in time, and with a slanted blade, he slashed on the frame of the car on the side, and he said eagerly: "Yuxue, do you even have to disobey the order?" ”

Yuxue's slightly pale face was a little unbearable, Peng Yu took care of him a lot along the way, and now he saw each other, but he didn't have time to explain more, he put a delicate dagger in front of his eyes, and said bitterly: "Brother Peng, I'm sorry, I can't do anything, if there is a chance in the future-"

Before the words fell, I heard the screams of the woman in the carriage and suddenly remembered, Cuihe looked at the angry man in front of him, almost fainted with fright, Qi Xiao pushed Cuihe away with one hand, and reached out to catch Jiang, who knew that Jiang, who had been sitting in the corner of the carriage in a daze, suddenly raised his head, smiled suspiciously, and then opened his hand, Qi Xiao subconsciously went to block, but there was still a little thing in his eyes.

His eyes were hot and painful, Qi Xiao tried his best to calm down, made a decision immediately, took out the water bag from his waist, poured it from his head, and suddenly his neck was cold, it was a dagger against his neck, and Qi Xiao could barely open his eyes.

I only saw the person in front of me, although he was forty or fifty years old, but it was not Jiang.

The woman moved very fast, and in such a short period of time, she could dodge in front of Qi Xiao, she must be able to do martial arts, Qi Xiao realized that he had a plan, but it was too late, he suddenly heard Yuxue screaming, he subconsciously turned around, only to see that Yuxue's right shoulder was pierced by a guard's long sword, and the dagger slid to the ground, making a piercing sound.

When the woman saw that Qi Xiao was still thinking about looking at others, she said darkly: "Don't worry, you will meet in the Netherworld Mansion in a while." ”

As he spoke, the dagger in his hand was sent forward.
