Chapter 169: Bet

As soon as he left the courtyard in the deep alleys of Night City, a man in black flashed into a room in the courtyard.

Inside the house, Murong Zhi was sitting at the mahogany table in a black satin brocade robe and talking to the two purple-clothed women behind him, when he saw the man in black appearing in the room, he frowned slightly with a few silver eyebrows, and asked coldly,

"What?"

"Lord, Ling Ling has returned to Night City."

As soon as the man in black spoke, one of the women in purple raised her apricot eyes, looked at the woman beside her, and whispered,

"Sister Nishang, are you okay?"

Mu Nishang didn't make a sound, glanced coldly at Ye Mo with a smile on her face, and quietly listened to the conversation between Murong Zhi and the man in black.

As soon as he heard Ling Ling's name, Murong Zhi's eyes were instantly covered with a layer of murderous intent, "Are you dead?" ”

The man in black hesitated for a moment, "The subordinates are incompetent. The secret guard who was in ambush outside the palace had already determined her whereabouts, but a mysterious person secretly helped her avoid the eyes and ears of all of us, and we didn't find out until she entered the palace. ”

Murong Zhi suddenly slapped the tea table, and a crack cracked on the lapped tabletop,

"You can't kill anyone if you don't use anything."

The man in black was so frightened that he knelt down, Ye Mo Xing's eyes rolled, pinched Murong Zhi's shoulder, and said with a mischievous smile,

"The Lord is angry, and now we are in the dark, and they are in the light, is it not easy to kill her? Moreover, my brother had already rushed to the Night City with the secret guards who had taken Grandpa He's batch of pills, and by that time, not to mention Ling Ling, the lives of the entire Night City people were not in the hands of you, the Lord? ”

"Hahaha......"

Murong Zhi laughed when he heard Ye Mo's words, and the smile that had just appeared in his eyes was replaced by a cold killing intent after a while,

"Those Dark Guards are test subjects, and you can't put the bet on them. Those two brothers are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they will clean up all the dark piles in our night city in a short time. Now in Night City, in addition to them and our people, there are also Princess Xisha and the group of mysterious people who don't know their origins, and it is not known whether those mysterious people are friends or enemies, so we can't force them to come. ”

"Lord, Ye Mo has a request."

Ye Mo suddenly knelt in front of Murong Zhi, with a straight face.

"You speak first."

"Ye Mo is willing to share the worries of the Lord, the Lord and his brother are seriously planning to take the big event of Night City, Ling Ling and Long Yunmen, Ye Mo will eradicate it for the Lord."

Murong Zhi raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously,

"The two of you are equal, but her talent is much higher than yours, and Longyunmen has also been set up with a lot of protection, how can you share your worries for this seat?"

The night mosaic apricot eyes are shining, and the corners of the mouth are slightly raised,

"As long as you keep an eye on it, you will definitely have a chance to start. And at that time, as the Lord said to us, from the big to the smallest, one by one. ”

Murong Zhi lowered his eyes and pondered, then took out a token and handed it to Ye Mo,

"Take it and pick a team of Secret Guards and follow you."

Ye Mo's eyes lit up, and she raised her hand in surprise, "Thank you, Lord!" ”

Mu Nishang's hands in his wide sleeves were slightly clenched, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she looked to the side a little distracted.

Ye Mo looked at her at the moment, her apricot eyes narrowed slightly, and her lips were filled with a smile.

On the second day, Ye Er sat in her small courtyard in green clothes and stroked the piano, some pungent wind in winter blew her cheeks, and a faint aroma wafted between her noses, she raised her eyes to look at the entrance of the courtyard, and saw that the slender white figure was approaching her, she raised her hand, the sound of the piano stopped, and smiled,

"Sister Princess is back, has it been smooth along the way?"

Ling Ling walked up to her, his gaze swept over her qin, and stopped at Ye Er's beautiful and moving face,

"Thanks to you, it went very well."

Ye Er smiled unabated, "What is my sister talking about, how can Ye Er be virtuous, it is my sister's ability to do it." ”

Ling Ling said sarcastically, "No matter how great my ability is, where is you big?" ”

Ye Er looked innocent, blinking her eyes at Ling Ling unknowingly, Ling Ling raised her eyebrows and sneered,

"found out about the prince's affairs, and released the news, causing the current situation, do you think you can endure it?"

"Ye'er doesn't know what you're talking about, it's a little cold, Ye'er is going back to the house to rest."

With that, she picked up the piano and turned to enter the house.

"What, afraid of admitting to being killed by me?" Ling Ling raised her voice to stop Ye Er, seeing her stop and stop, Ling Ling stepped forward and continued, "Miss Ye Er, today's Jingwang Mansion is not what it used to be, you are a distinguished guest of the Xisha Kingdom, this princess thinks that you should change it back, right?" ”

Ling Ling's words were very light, but Ye Er felt a chill in her back when she heard it, she always felt that there was something in Ling Ling's words, as if she knew something.

"My sister laughed, Ye'er has a very stubborn personality, once it is determined, it will not be changed, the prince is high-spirited and extraordinary, who else can compare with the prince? No matter what happened to the prince, Ye'er was willing to stay by the prince's side. ”

"Smack, smack, smack......"

Ling Ling clapped his hands lightly, his eyes stared straight at Ye Er's beautiful and harmless face, and the corners of his naturally raised mouth hooked up a cold smile,

"Miss Ye'er's words really make this princess feel ashamed, yes, this princess looks at you, she is really a woman she loves, she is desperate and not afraid of difficulties. It's really worth learning from me! ”

"Sister Princess has won the prize." Ye Er calmed down and replied calmly.

"But there is one thing, this princess will never learn from you,"

Ling Ling's smile was even bigger, and she leaned into Ye Er's ear and whispered,

"For the sake of the beloved, do whatever it takes to risk yourself."

Every word she said hit Ye Er's heart, and after almost confirming that Ling Ling knew her secret, Ye Er gasped, and was about to organize a set of rhetoric to get the words back, when she saw a woman in black walking quickly towards them not far behind Ling Ling.

Ye Er secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "It looks like someone is looking for my sister." ”

Ling Ling looked back and found that the red candle suddenly appeared not far behind her, she frowned slightly, the red candle should be guarding the mask shop at this moment, why did it appear here?

She motioned for Red Candle to stand outside the small courtyard and wait, raising her eyebrows and smiling at Ye'er, who looked relieved, with a delicate and beautiful little face with a look of seeing through everything,

"How about we make a bet?"

"What?" Ye Er didn't understand.

"Just bet on your sweetheart."

"Lord Wang?"

"You know who it is, let's bet on whether your beloved really loves you, or just uses you and treats you as a pawn."

Ye Er's eyes flickered, and the slender ten fingers holding the qin secretly grasped it, and she chuckled,

"Ye Er didn't understand why her sister said this, seeing that the girl was in a hurry to find her sister, Ye Er retired first."

She bowed slightly, and turned again to go back to the house.

"If you don't refuse me, you will accept it," Ling Ling's clear voice echoed throughout the small courtyard, "I bet that he only treats you as a chess piece, as for the bet, help the other party do something, okay?" ”

Ye Er hugged Qin tightly, her eyes looked fixedly ahead, her red lips pursed into a line, she didn't answer Ling Ling, and walked straight to the room.

She bets on the former.

Seeing Ling Ling coming towards her, Red Candle walked quickly to her side and handed a knuckle-sized bamboo tube to Ling Ling.

"Today, a little beggar came to the mask shop, took this thing and said that it was a gift from Li Si in Mingcheng, and the girl said that Li Si was a flower thief you once caught, so the red candle brought this strange thing over."
