The word "Gao Chen" was engraved on it, Chu Nian noticed that the red rope was worn to a little broken, but the color was still bright, and there was an inexplicable fragrance on it.

She glanced at Ming Xiu sideways, Ming Xiu looked at her with a focused expression, both turned her eyes, and in front of her was a dark room, and there seemed to be a faint outline of something in the room, and there was also a gentle shallow breathing sound.

Then, it was Xichu Lu Ning's voice that came out from inside.

"Wushuang County Lord, Prince Mingxiu, since you're here, why don't you come in?"

The two of them glanced at each other outside the house, and they all didn't know where Xi Chu Lu Ning's confidence came from.

It seems that Xichu Luning still has other hole cards in his hand? Clenching the jade pendant in his hand, Chu Nian glanced at Ming Xiu sideways, and the two walked side by side towards the door.

The inside of the door was still dark, only a little bit of light was revealed by the crack in the roof because of the irritability of Xi Chu Luqing outside, and the eyes of the two gradually adapted to the light, and they saw a figure in the room standing quietly in a shadow.

It was Xi Chu Lu Ning.

Looking at Xi Chu Lu Ning's pretending to be deep, Chu Nian smiled slightly, "The prince is so calm and calm, but he was turned upside down by Yuan Niang outside." ”

Xichu Luning looked back at the window, his eyes faintly flashed with a little unbearable light, and he saw Chu Nian take a step forward, and his gaze fell on Xichu Luning's hand, "What is the thing that the prince is holding in his hand?" But what is used to manipulate Yuan Niang? ”

At this moment, Xichu Luning was holding an object in his hand, and Xichu Luning raised his hand, and with a trace of light cast from the roof, the thing was emitting a trace of inexplicable green fluorescence.

Seeing Chu Nian's gaze fall on his hand, Xi Chu Lu Ning smiled and put away the things in his hand, "The county lord seems to care about Qing'er very much, but it's a pity ......"

"But her biological mother didn't care about her, but persecuted her to the end of the road?" Chu Nian looked at Xi Chu Lu Ning in front of him with a smile, and there was a lot of sarcasm in his eyes, "Lord Wang, as a mother, you are really unqualified. ”

"You know what?" As if poked in the heart by Chu Nian's sarcastic gaze, Xi Chu Lu Ning glared at Chu Nian angrily, and the things in his hands became tighter and tighter, "I'm doing this for their good, if I don't be cruel to them, they will only be as indecisive as the empress in the future!" ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, and Ming Xiu on the side pursed his thin lips and said, "No matter how indecisive the empress is...... The royal daughters are still human. ”

The figure in the shadows slammed suddenly. At this time, he saw a roar outside, Chu Nian frowned, turned around and went out, sure enough, Xichu Luqing seemed to be more and more brutal, Xichu Yueling and Xichu Yao were dealing with them, although they did not fall behind, but in the end, they were afraid that they would hurt Xichu Luqing's body and did not dare to act rashly.

Chu Nian looked at Xi Chu Yao, who was suffocated in anger on the side, and shouted at Xi Chu Yue Ling: "Don't hurt the life of Xi Chu Lu Qing!" ”

Xi Chuyao glanced at Chu Nian, his face became more and more irritable, but he still withdrew the weapon in his hand, "Okay!" I know! Just hide a little! Did you hear the little ones, the county lord ordered, if anyone dares to hurt a single hair of Xichu Luqing, they will take their lives to resist! ”

The words just fell, and the stunned maids happened to be overturned by the fist smashed down by Xichu Luqing, Xichu Yao took a sip, and hurriedly rushed over to save people, Xichu Yueling flashed Xichu Luqing's attack, rushed into the house where the three of them were, and saw Xichu Luning's eyes lit up.

"It turns out that Her Royal Highness is also there."

Xichu Yueling frowned slightly, and saw Chu Nian spread his hands and looked at Xichu Luning with a serious face, "I also advise the prince to be interesting, if the prince continues to ask Yuan Niang to hurt those soldiers outside, the courtiers don't guarantee that the prince's only spiritual sustenance in this world will go to hell with those dead and wounded soldiers!" ”

When these words fell, Xi Chu Lu Ning saw the jade pendant in Chu Nian's palm, and his face was suddenly stunned, and the voice outside suddenly stopped, at this time, he saw Xi Chu Lu Ning's eyes tightening on the jade pendant in Chu Nian's hand, "This ...... But his stuff? ”

Chu Nian raised her eyes slightly and looked at Xi Chu Lu Ning, with a serious expression that Xi Chu Lu Ning had to believe it, she looked at Chu Nian in astonishment, for a long time, her eyes were cold, "If it is really something you did, but what is the use of you taking it out now?" Do you think that, after all that's been through, I still have half hope for that cold and heartless person? ”

Hearing this, she saw Chu Nian smiling slightly, she lowered her head, and the jade pendant in her palm was playful, "If the prince is really ruthless to the palace lord of Gao Chen, he will not pause for so long, doesn't the prince want to see the palace master of Gao Chen...... The last side? ”

Xi Chu Lu Ning's face suddenly turned pale, and then, he saw Xi Chu Yue Ling turn his eyes to look at Chu Nian, "Now?" ”

Chu Nian raised his eyes and looked at Xi Chu Lu Ning meaningfully and said, "It depends on what the prince means." ”

Hearing this, Xichu Yue Ling nodded and said, "Well, yes, anyway, my people have already taken Gao Chen Palace Lord outside the door, until Fang Cai, Gao Chen Palace Lord also asked me if the prince was okay, but now it seems that it is Gao Chen Palace Master's wishful thinking." ”

As soon as the two sang and called Xi Chu Lu Ning's face became more and more pale, Yu Guang saw Xi Chu Lu Ning's complexion, Chu Nian pulled the corners of his mouth, and looked at Xi Chu Lu Ning's right hand, which was holding the thing that could be used to control Xi Chu Lu Ning, and on his wrist, there was a red nylon rope that looked equally old.

In order to add fuel to the fire, Chu Nian raised the jade pendant in his hand high and placed it under the ray of sunlight projected from the roof, and the jade pendant was exuding a bright light.

"It's a pity, such a beautiful jade pendant, if the prince doesn't want it, then I can only throw it into the fire to burn, I just don't know if the palace master of Gao Chen will feel distressed......"

He ...... Why do you still keep it? Xi Chu Lu Ning raised his head and looked at the pendant in Chu Nian's hand with a flickering gaze.

When these words fell, it was Chu Nian who smiled slightly, "Gao Chen's palace master's thoughts, how can we know?" If the prince is not in a hurry to see the palace master of Gao Chen, then I will retire after this trip, and it is a big deal to go back and ask the princess for guilt, so I will say that I really can't save Yuan Niang. ”

Saying that, she really turned around and left, and the other two were not idle, Xichu Yueling glanced at Xichu Luning with regret, and then sighed, while Ming Xiu on the side had a slight flash in his eyes, and immediately swept the jade pendant in Chu Nian's palm, hooked the corner of his lips without a trace, and turned around.

Xichu Lu Ning's face turned pale suddenly, "Wait." ”

Her subordinates clenched the things in their hands, and their eyes were firmly fixed on the jade pendant in Chu Nian's hand, "I...... I want to see him! You bring him in, I have something to ask him!" ”

"Oh?" Chu Nian stopped, turned around and looked at Xi Chu Lu Ning meaningfully, "The prince finally figured it out?" ”

Seeing the ridicule in the corner of Chu Nian's eyes, there was a sound of grinding teeth from Xi Chu Lu Ning's mouth, but he could only half-hang his eyes and say, "Well, how are you going to ask me to see him?" ”

Chu Nian smiled slightly, "As long as the prince asks Yuan Niang to return to the original state and hand over the method of controlling Yuan Niang, Her Royal Highness will naturally bring the palace master Gao Chen in." ”

When these words fell, Xi Chu Lu Ning seemed to hesitate for a while, then raised his eyes and looked at Chu Nian fixedly, "I hope that the Wushuang County Lord will not break his promise." ”

Not long after, the ragged Gao Chen Palace Lord was escorted in by several maids, he was no longer as radiant as before, his face was very weak, his arms were bruised, and he seemed to have been beaten a lot.

Chu Nian couldn't help but glance at Xi Chu Yue Ling, and his gaze turned to Xi Chu Lu Ning, "Lord Wang, can you liberate Yuan Niang?" ”

Looking at the Gao Chen Palace Lord in front of him, Xi Chu Lu Ning lost his mind for a moment, and at this moment, the Gao Chen Palace Lord was also raising his eyes to look at Xi Chu Lu Ning, and there seemed to be a bit of begging light in his eyes.

"Ning'er."

Gao Chen's palace master spoke, his voice inexplicably hoarse, "Ning'er, save me." ”

As soon as these words came out, she saw that Xi Chu Lu Ning's face turned pale, and after a while, tears rolled down her eyes, and she raised her eyes to look at Chu Nian and Xi Chu Yueling, "You guys will release him quickly, and I will give you the token." ”

Xi Chu Yue Ling glanced sideways at the two maids who were escorting the palace lord of Gao Chen, and the two maids let go of the hand that was originally holding the arm of the palace lord of Gao Chen, and regained their freedom, the palace lord of Gao Chen suddenly rushed towards Xi Chu Lu Ning, and at the same time, Chu Nian also received the jade plate thrown by Xi Chu Lu Ning, and the huge noise outside the door that was originally caused by Xi Chu Lu Qing stopped in an instant, and he saw Xi Chu Yao coming in panting.

"Xichu Luqing has returned to normal."

Seeing this, Chu Nian slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked sideways at Xi Chu Yue Ling on the side, Xi Chu Yue Ling suddenly understood, nodded towards Xi Chu Yao and said, "Aunt Yao, you take Qing'er back first, and call a doctor to give her a good physical examination, I am here." ”

Xi Chu Yao glanced at Xi Chu Lu Ning who was standing opposite vigilantly, nodded slightly, and swept her eyes over Chu Nian and Ming Xiu, at this point, Chu Nian felt that a big hand suddenly held the hand she put on her side, and she looked at her side with some doubts, and saw Ming Xiu on her side looking at Xi Chu Yao like a great enemy.

Seeing this, Xi Chuyao snorted coldly, turned around and walked out the door.

Chu Nian looked at Ming Xiu beside him with a smile, "Your Highness, the general is a woman. ”

Ming Xiu pursed his thin lips and did not speak.

At this time, there was a cry of pain from Xichu Luning from the opposite side, and when everyone's attention shifted to the past, they saw a short blade appear in the hand of the Gao Chen Palace Master at some point, and at this moment, the short blade was deeply inserted into the chest of Xichu Lu Ning, and Xichu Lu Ning stared at the Gao Chen Palace Lord who was close at hand, and his eyes were full of surprise.

"You ......"

She muttered, but the voice she made was hoarse, Gao Chen Palace Master turned his back to Chu Nian and the others, and he couldn't see his expression, but the voice came from that side, it seemed to tremble faintly, but the voice was still cold and ruthless.

"As long as I kill you, the empress will definitely understand my loyalty, Ning'er, if you really love me, then die for me......"

Chu Nian looked at Xi Chu Lu Ning, who was gradually falling not far away, her eyes were full of disbelief and made people's hearts feel a little sad inexplicably, at this time, Xi Chu Yue Ling also exclaimed, "Fourth aunt! ”

There was a bit of chill in his palms, Chu Nian looked at the smiling Gao Chen Palace Lord who was holding the corpse of Xi Chu Luning not far away, "Gao Chen Palace Master, why are you ......?"

It was clear that there were still tokens between them, why did he kill Xi Chu Lu Ning when Xi Chu Lu Ning exchanged his last retreat for a way to live?

Gao Chen Palace Lord turned around, with a somewhat empty smile on his face, he raised his eyes and looked at Xichu Yueling quietly, "Please, Your Royal Highness, tell the empress, just say that the thief has been brought to justice, and no one will threaten her in the future." ”
