The three of them dodged the patrol all the way and quietly walked deeper, the surrounding houses quiet, like man-eating beasts hidden. Fastest update┏┛

Soon, Chu Nian and the three of them saw the innermost room that looked the most luxurious, this room had three rooms connected together, the two on the left were dimly lit and seemed to be empty, and the one on the far right, the candle flame was reflected through the window paper, and there seemed to be a figure sitting upright.

The figure seemed to have lost a lot of weight, but it was still erect, and he was sitting by the window, as if he was bothered by something.

Chu Nian's watery eyes couldn't help but be dyed with a little moisture, she forcibly pressed down the moisture, and gently waved her hand at the two people behind her, "You guys hide here first." ”

As she spoke, she took the lead and walked slowly in that direction, and the person in the room seemed to sense something, only to see him get up, but he walked deeper into the room with a pace.

Chu Nian's eyes flashed with a moment of loss, but at this moment, a deep voice suddenly sounded behind him, "I thought something had happened to you on the road." ”

Immediately after, her body fell into a warm embrace, Chu Nian suddenly remembered something, and she didn't have time to continue to feel this faintly fragrant embrace, she pushed the people behind her, until she reached the shadows hidden by Tianluo and Xiao Susu, and then in the eyes of one big and one small stunned, she opened her arms and immediately hugged the person in front of her.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid you've forgotten what you look like."

Without a single breath, Chu Nian's body was tightly clamped by a pair of powerful arms, Chu Nian raised his head, and saw that he fell into those narrow eyes.

His silhouette was still resolute, but he seemed to be a little thinner, and a pair of narrow eyes were staring at her tightly, and there seemed to be a thousand words in his eyes, but he couldn't spit out a word from his thin lips.

Chu Nian's heart suddenly rose a trace of grievance, "Your Highness stared at me like this, but did you really forget me?" ”

When these words fell, Fang Mingxiu pressed her in his arms again, and in an instant, a lotus fragrance penetrated into Chu Nian's nose again, which made Chu Nian inexplicably calm down a little, and he could hear the person's deep voice coming from above.

"Little fool."

At this time, Tianluo on the side seemed to be unable to stand it, he covered Xiao Susu's eyes with some embarrassment, and then coughed lightly and said, "You guys...... Know? ”

It was also at this time that Ming Xiu noticed that there were other people here, and his originally gentle eyes suddenly became a little colder, he looked sideways slightly, and a pair of narrow eyes narrowed dangerously, "Who are you?" ”

Tianluo shrank a little embarrassed for a moment, only to see Chu Nian gently push Ming Xiu away, then saw Xiao Su Su break free of Tianluo's hand, and then trotted all the way closer, Chu Nian and the two of them raised their little heads, and a pair of big watery eyes seemed to have some doubts written in them.

"Have I seen you? What is your relationship with my sister? ”

As if there was a hint of familiarity from that ignorant little face, Ming Xiu squatted down slightly, his eyes flashing slightly, "Are you...... Little Susu? ”

Xiao Su Su blinked curiously with a pair of big eyes, bit one finger in his mouth, and saw that Fang Mingxiu twisted his brows, and after a while, he spit out a sentence, "I hugged you when you were a child." ”

When these words fell, Chu Nian on the side couldn't help but chuckle before he spoke, "Your Highness, I'm afraid there won't be so much time for us to catch up, this is Tianluo, Tianluo, come here, meet His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Tai ......" Tianluo's face was stunned for a moment, and then he knelt on the ground, "Caomin Tianluo, see His Royal Highness the Prince's ......"

Ming Xiu didn't speak, so he saw Chu Nian smile and whispered, "This kid has a good heart, and he is protecting me all the way." ”

Hearing this, Ming Xiuhu glanced at Chu Nian suspiciously, and then turned his head, "Excuse yourself from being polite." ”

"Your Highness." Tianluo stood up, and after a moment, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "Su Nian, you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ......"

Halfway through his words, his eyes widened as if he remembered something, and he patted his head in annoyance, "Look at my stupidity, I dare to have a relationship with the unequaled county lord, but I still have a question......

He glanced at Ming Xiu cautiously, and saw Chu Nian said with a smile: "Since Xiao Susu has recognized you as his brother, you are my younger brother, there is no need to be so polite, if you want to ask anything, just ask." ”

Seeing that Ming Xiu didn't seem to have any expression, Tianluo took a deep breath and said, "Didn't the capital say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had died, how could he be here?" Also, you...... Did the county lord bring me here with the intention of coming to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from the beginning? And ......"

Tianluo's face suddenly sank, and he said softly: "You are here now, you don't need to lie to me, do you want to exterminate this cottage, or is this cottage your property in the first place?" ”

Ming Xiu glanced at him, without meaning to explain, and saw Chu Nian raise his eyebrows slightly, "Do you think that if I wanted to harm you, you would still live until now?" ”

Tianluo was dumbfounded, and after a while, he scratched his head embarrassedly, and then he didn't speak again, only then did he see Chu Nian turn his eyes to look at Ming Xiu, his brows furrowed, "The last time I received news from you, it was a month ago, what is the situation here now?" What about Tao Jinyan? ”

Ming Xiu's eyes flashed slightly, "He's fine, now it can be said that the wind and rain are in the cottage, and now the people in the cottage here have completely believed us, but a few days ago, I don't know why, the people I sent out to deliver the letter to you have no reply." ”

Chu Nian twisted his eyebrows, "There are only two possibilities in this situation at the moment, either the people in the entire village are playing dumb with you, or a small part of the people in this village are directly under the orders of Dark Rin, and it is they who have secretly removed your messenger, but if it is the second possibility, why didn't Dark Rin order someone to tell the truth to the people in the entire cottage?" ”

Ming Xiu's brows tightened, "Dark Rin already knows?" ”

"Now it seems that I know." Chu Nian nodded affirmatively, and then looked at the candle flame burning not far away, and his eyes blinked slightly, "That woman is still by your side?" ”

Ming Xiu pursed his thin lips and nodded slightly, but after a while, he once again ignored the gazes of the two people around him, one big and one small, and hugged the thin little man in front of him into his arms, "Don't worry, I'm still innocent." ”

Chu Nian smiled helplessly, and then pushed Ming Xiu away, "We are pretending to be caught in, and there is not a lot of time, I should go and see Tao Jinyan again." ”

A month ago, Ming Xiu sent a letter to Chu Nian saying that he needed someone to help manage this cottage, and Chu Nian went to ask Tao Jinyan for help.

Seeing that Ming Xiu's brows were obviously tightened, he seemed extremely reluctant, "I'll take you there." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards a house farther away, Chu Nian shook his head helplessly, and hurriedly followed, and Tianluo behind him also pulled up Xiao Susu and walked in the direction of the two.

After a short time, I came to the front of the black-lit house, and there seemed to be some vegetables and fruits growing in the yard, which showed the elegance of the owner.

Ming Xiu unceremoniously pushed open the wooden door of the room, and suddenly there was a sound of breaking the sky in the darkness, Chu Nian was standing at the door, and he saw Tao Jinyan's plain white figure that was extremely abrupt in the dark night and rushed towards Ming Xiu without hesitation.

Seeing that Ming Xiu twisted his brows, he didn't know when there was an extra dagger in his hand, and with the sound of "Zheng", there was a burst of iron collision in the darkness, and the two figures, one black and one white, separated in an instant, and saw Tao Jinyan who had fallen to the ground, and suddenly let out an exclamation.

"Nian'er!"

As soon as these words fell, the plain white figure rushed towards Chu Nian at an astonishing speed, but he saw that Ming Xiu on the side quickly blocked in front of Chu Nian.

The plain white figure stopped in front of Ming Xiu, and under the moonlight outside the window, there was a pale and enchanting face.

He glared at Ming Xiu dissatisfiedly, "I protest, I haven't seen my thoughts for a long time, can't you hug me?" ”

Ming Xiu's thin lips opened lightly, but the three people behind him inexplicably felt a murderous aura, "Your thoughts? ”

Tao Jinyan seemed to shrink for a moment, and then he had the courage to ignore Ming Xiu's gaze that he wanted to swallow his life alive, and looked at Chu Nian over Ming Xiu's shoulder, with a complaining face, "Look at him, I let go of the Tao family, I came all the way to him, and tried my best to help him, but he treated me like this, you don't care?" ”

Chu Nian smiled silently, "You volunteered." ”

"You stinky girl......"

"Okay, I've wronged our dignified martial arts alliance leader, now it's time for us to discuss what to do next."

When these words fell, Tao Jinyan instantly extinguished the fire, and his eyes swept over Tianluo and Xiao Susu beside Chu Nian, before he reluctantly let go, "Then just come to my house and say, the group of people outside have always thought that I am not easy to get along with, and my yard does not dare to approach half a minute, but it is much stronger than someone who has a woman hidden in the house." ”

Ming Xiu twisted his brows slightly, but he didn't talk to him, so he saw him turn around and light the candle, and in an instant, the whole room was brightly lit.

Several people walked to the table and sat down, Tianluo hugged Xiao Susu, took out a few snacks out of nowhere and stuffed them into Xiao Susu's hands, Xiao Susu was eating with relish.

After staring at Tianluo and Xiao Susu for a while, Tao Jinyan retracted his gaze and turned his eyes to look at Chu Nian, "You mean, Dark Rin already knew?" ”

Chu Nian nodded slightly, and then saw Tao Jinyan touching his chin and pondering: "Then why didn't he just take this opportunity to eradicate this thousand-knife killer......

Ming Xiu frowned and glanced at him coldly, but Fang Bisheng didn't know how to restrain at all, "If Dark Rin takes this opportunity to eradicate Ming Xiu, I can pursue Nian'er openly, and then ask for a kiss, and then bring Nian'er back to Tao's house......"

Before he finished his conjecture, a cold dagger had already fallen on his throat, Tao Jinyan's face was obviously stiff, and he turned his eyes to look at Chu Nian as if asking for help, "Let's get down to business, can you tell him not to be so murderous!" ”

Chu Nian couldn't laugh or cry, "You brought this on yourself." ”

"Hey, you...... Let me tell you, Ming Xiu, I am the leader of the martial arts alliance, if you kill me, just wait for the entire martial arts to hunt you down! ”

"I'm still the prince."

"You ......"

"Okay," Chu Nian patted Ming Xiu's shoulder helplessly, "Spare him his life." ”

As soon as these words fell, the faces of several people in the room sank, and they all looked at each other, and at this stall, they heard a call from outside, "Ah Xiu? Ah Xiu? Mr. Sincerely? Can my husband be in your house? ”

Ming Xiu's face was not good-looking, but Tao Jinyan turned his eyes to look at Chu Nian, "You guys avoid it first?" ”
