Back at the county lord's mansion, it was almost dawn. Although Sakura has not woken up yet, her face is much more ruddy.

Calm down, Yu Qianling has to think carefully about who is going to do it to her.

That Li Yuming just knows how to do three-legged cat kung fu, so he doesn't need to care about it at all. Later, the one who escaped obviously came to assassinate him, but he ran away without even seeing his own shadow. Such an unreliable assassin is Gao Mengzhu's masterpiece nine times out of ten.

But what about the dead man? Yu Qianling thought carefully about the people who had a holiday with her and could raise the dead. Except for the eleventh prince Mo Haocheng, there seems to be no one else. He also asked Moyu Baiyao about the people who had a holiday with the Medicine King, but the two of them didn't know. Including those who had a holiday with Mo Zixiang, she thought about it carefully.

Mo Zixiang is the son of the imperial concubine, the former dynasty and the harem, inextricably linked. There are not many people who want to get rid of Mo Zixiang. This is related to politics, and Yu Qianling feels that he has no way to start.

If Mo Haocheng can't get married, will he feel hatred? That narrow-minded man could indeed do such a thing.

"County Lord, Prince Xiang said that he would find out the mastermind behind the scenes. Do we want to check? Bai Yao asked.

"After a night of tossing, you all go and rest." Yu Qianling's face was tired, and her voice was a little tired.

It was a very different night.

***

"Lord Wang, someone sneaked into the county lord's mansion last night and wanted to assassinate the county lord. The assassination failed, and he committed suicide by swallowing poison. ”

Listening to Lifeng's words, Mo Hanyun raised his head and put down the book in his hand.

"Mo Haocheng did it."

Li Feng was a little surprised: "How does the prince know?" ”

Mo Hanyun frowned slightly, and there was a hint of disgust in his eyes: "If you can't get it, you will destroy it." Mo Haocheng has always been like this. Apart from him, the king can't think of anyone who would go to great lengths to assassinate a woman who has nothing to do with politics. ”

Lifeng smiled faintly, he also didn't like Mo Haocheng who didn't like that hanging boy from the bottom of his heart: "The eleventh prince is so narrow-minded. This time he couldn't do it, and his subordinates felt that he must not be expensive and give up. Do you want to tell the fairy lord? ”

Mo Hanyun snorted: "Mo Zixiang will weigh it." ”

***

"Waste, you can't even kill a woman!" Mo Haocheng frowned, his eyes were closed, and his face was angry.

He sat in a chair, half-reclining, with one foot on the table.

"Lord Wang, this Lingxian County Lord is just a false title, she has no foundation in the imperial capital. There's no need to put her to death. "It was Xifan who spoke, Mo Haocheng's personal guard.

"You know what! She married Mo Zixiang, who was the daughter-in-law of the imperial concubine. This means that Wanyao Valley has a relationship with the Shangguan family. Putting all of this aside, I'm now the laughing stock of the entire imperial palace, no, the laughing stock of the entire imperial capital, isn't it because of this woman? This king is a dignified prince, and he has lost face. Therefore, this king is unhappy, very unhappy. As long as she lives, this king feels that there is a thorn in her heart! Mo Haocheng smiled coldly.

"Lord Wang, it's better to go down." Sivan said.

Mo Haocheng opened his eyes and glanced at Xifan: "Before, this king underestimated the black and white double evil beside the woman, but he didn't expect that he still had some skills. Now that Mo Zixiang has been alarmed, he has reported the matter to his father. The father gave an order to specially transfer a team of guards to guard the city and strengthen the patrol near the county lord's mansion. You said, this imperial concubine wants to suppress the mother concubine everywhere. And Mo Zixiang can ask to marry Yu Qianling, but this king can't. What kind of ecstasy soup did this mother and son get used to their father? ”

"My subordinates don't know." Sivan said.

A trace of disgust flashed in Mo Haocheng's eyes, and he kicked Xifan hard: "Go, go!" Go aside! ”

Sivan had no choice but to turn and leave.

"Wait!" Mo Haocheng stopped him.

"What does the prince command?"

Mo Haocheng looked at Xifan, thought about it, took his feet off the table, stood up and walked in front of Xifan.

"How sure are you?" Mo Haocheng asked.

"Lord Wang, if your subordinates miss, they must kill themselves before they are captured!" Sivan said.

Mo Haocheng nodded: "Go, this king is waiting for your good news." ”

"Yes, lord." With that, Sivan turned around and walked out.

Mo Haocheng watched Xifan leave, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"If it weren't for the concubine's trust in your father, if you weren't for the fact that you were a good seedling who practiced martial arts, this king would not have been willing to keep you by your side at the beginning. Over the years, you have been obedient, and your martial arts are not bad. However, there are things about people who have good martial arts and are obedient. Whether that dies or you die, this king has nothing to lose. Mo Haocheng sneered.

Actually, Sivan didn't go far. When he heard Mo Haocheng's words, he stopped, and couldn't help clenching his fists. A flash of resentment and hatred flashed in his eyes, but it quickly vanished.

Tonight is the best chance. Sifan took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind.

There is a reason why Mo Haocheng hates it.

Xifan has a long body, half a head taller than Mo Haocheng. The eyebrows are like ink paintings, the eyes are deep, and the facial features are sharp and angular. The two stood together, and there were two similarities between their eyebrows. Xifan's momentum is not inferior to Mo Haocheng at all.

And Xifan's father is the chief of the Xie family's guard, and he has known Mo Haocheng's mother Concubine Xie Guifei since childhood.

It was night, and there was no moon or stars. Darkness, like thick ink that can't be dissolved.

Dressed in night clothes, Xifan was lying on the roof opposite the county lord's mansion. He didn't move, staring down. Almost blends in with the night.

Not far away, in a dark alley, a dark shadow hid behind a wall and glanced at Xifan hiding on the roof.

Behind him, there was the man with a silver mask and a navy blue outfit.

The man in black turned his head and saw the silver mask, and couldn't help but reprimand in a low voice: "How many times have I told you, don't wear this mask." Big night, so eye-catching! ”

The masked man immediately took off his mask, took out a black mask from his bosom, and put it on his face.

The man in black shook his head a little helplessly, and turned to look at Xifan.

"It seems that Mo Haocheng still doesn't give up."

The masked man glanced up at Xifan, lowered his head, and said, "Master, what should we do?" ”

"What should I do", the corners of the black-clothed man's mouth rose, revealing a wicked smile, "Of course, it's to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." Mo Zixiang, Mo Hanyun, and Mo Haocheng are all for the same woman. Let them toss away. However, tonight's matter, no matter whether Mo Haocheng can get his wish or not, Mo Zixiang will not let Mo Haocheng go. ”

"Master, the guards guarding the city are here." The masked man said.

"Let's go." After the man in black finished speaking, the two left. Disappear into the night.

Guards on patrol pass by the gate of the county lord's mansion. Sifan bowed his head.

After a while, the guards walked away. Sifan stood up and leaped forward. He did very well and came to the county lord's mansion quietly.

Having figured out the county lord's mansion in advance, Xifan went straight to Zilan Pavilion.

Inside the Zilan Pavilion, the lights are bright. The three masters and servants were chatting casually.

Sakura habitually touched her waist, but she didn't touch anything.

"County master, the slave's sachet is missing, and I haven't found it."

"Maybe it fell in the Xiangwang Mansion. You make another one. Xing Yao said.

There was a "bang", and the sound of a fight was heard outside, and it was in the courtyard.

Ying Hong and Xing Yao looked at each other and frowned.

"County Lord."

Yu Qianling was very calm, and took a sip of tea slowly.

"It's okay, be prepared." Yu Qianling put down the teacup and stood up.

In order to deal with the uninvited guests who are likely to come again, Yu Qianling has already ordered Bai Yao and Mo Yu to take turns to guard outside the Zilan Pavilion at night. As a result, so soon, the assassins came again.

Yu Qianling walked out.

"County Lord, it's dangerous outside!" Sakura said hurriedly.

Yu Qianling didn't stop. She crossed the threshold, took a step forward, and then stopped.

Xifan noticed that someone had come out of the main hall, thinking that it should be Yu Qianling. He took the sword, flew up, and stabbed at Yu Qianling.

For a moment, he was stunned. This woman in white is like a fairy descending to earth. Even in this dark night, I feel that she shines brightly.

Mo Yu hurriedly went to block Xifan's sword, but Xifan subconsciously threw the sword.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman, even if the pearl was bright, he could not compete with her.

The sword of the devil was placed on the neck of Xifan. Xifan looked at Yu Qianling blankly.

Ying Hong and Xing Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

"What? Don't swallow poison and commit suicide? Yu Qianling looked at Xifan, walked over, and ripped off his mask.

A hint of surprise flashed in Twilight's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Xifan, it's you."

"Who is he?" Yu Qianling asked.

"He is the personal guard of the Eleventh Prince." Motwilight replied.

Yu Qianling glanced at the sword on the ground: "Didn't you come to assassinate me?" Why did you throw away the sword? ”

Xifan frowned, looked away, and didn't answer her question, just said, "Coming to kill you is my own business, and it has nothing to do with King Cheng." ”

"Joke, since you are his personal guard, Cheng Wang Ye naturally can't get out of it." Yu Qianling said contemptuously.

"This is the king. The marriage is given by the emperor, what does it have to do with the lord of my family! Why does he have to take the life of my county lord! This time the evidence is ironclad, you must let the emperor know! Xingyao said angrily.

Sifan smiled self-deprecatingly and looked at the sword resting around his neck. After hesitating, he did not kill himself. He fell to his knees suddenly.

"What, you want to intercede for your lord?" Yu Qianling's eyes were cold.

"King Cheng's personal guard, how can there be any reason to assassinate the county lord, unless it is instructed by the master. I fell into the hands of the county lord, and if I want to kill it, I will listen to it. ”

In Xifan's mind, the figure of a woman flashed. In fact, no matter whether Yu Qianling is a peerless beauty or not, he Xifan will also be arrested. Because his original intention was to pull Mo Haocheng into the water.

"Xingyao, go tell Bai Yao and let him tell King Xiang about this." Yu Qianling said.

An old story came to mind. Xifan smiled, a little relieved. It's just that whether you can pull down Mo Haocheng and Xie Guifei depends on the emperor's intentions.
