Chapter 180: One Step Wrong

Lu Zhi gently covered the quilt with the remaining jade. Stretched out the back of his hand to probe her forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, got up and twisted a wet handkerchief in the corner of the house, carefully wiped her tear-stained face clean, and stared at her somewhat restless sleeping face for a while before walking out of the bedroom.

After closing the door, he turned around and walked to the chair opposite Li Tai and sat down, his mood fluctuated greatly at the moment, and it was inevitable that he would make a slip of the tongue when talking to Li Tai, and if he showed a little something, he could be pulled out by the other party. Therefore, he did not take the initiative to speak.

Although he had already known that the Wei Palaces would be besieged on the night of September 30, he never expected that Li Tai would arrange such a simple guard, which was simply risking his life.

Thinking that if it weren't for the fact that he had handed over a note to Yu Yu just in case, and had a heart palpitation last night, he sent Lu Yao here to see the situation, then his only sister would-

Lu Zhi's left hand on his side was clenched into a fist to suppress the slight tremor in his body.

Lu Yao only experienced the second half of last night's incident, and with some information he had heard intermittently from Yi Yukou just now, he roughly introduced the details of seven points.

Li Tai looked faintly at his almost imperceptible gaffe, giving him enough time to calm down. It wasn't until he raised his head that he put the tea that had already been cold in his hand on the side of the table, and asked out loud, "How much do you know?" ”

Lu Zhi knew that he was asking not only how much he knew now, but also how much he knew beforehand.

His attitude was not as respectful as before, he lowered his head in thought, and after a while, he only spit out two words lightly, "Not a lot." ”

Li Tai didn't show dissatisfaction with his uncooperative answer, and looked at him lightly with his eyes, "Li Ke has your eyeliner by his side?" ”

Lu Zhi answered his question with silence, without denying or admitting it.

"You knew in advance that he was going to send someone to attack the king at night, but you didn't know that he would temporarily borrow five blood guards from the prince to make up the numbers, intending to take the opportunity to take the blame."

Lu Zhi nodded, his eyelids drooping, covering the remorse in his eyes.

"Where did you borrow the man who came in the middle of the night?"

Lu Zhi replied half-truthfully: "Your Highness, everyone has friends. ”

Li Tai's eyes narrowed, and his flat tone somehow carried a little coldness, "Since you already knew in advance, you can rest assured that you will put her here with this king, because you have full confidence in the person who is late in the second half of the night, and you are still sure that this king will protect her." ”

Last night on Yiyu's side, he did a good job of guaranteeing, not only asked the maid to put some harmless sleeping pills in her bedtime tea, but also sent one of his personal guards to secretly protect her.

If Yu Yu hadn't woken up inexplicably, he would have been taken to his room by Zhao He "in a daze". You'll definitely sleep until dawn and won't know anything about the night.

Li Tai's right hand wrapped in white yarn was placed on his lap, and he moved his wrist slightly, he gave Yinxiao an order not to go out of the room before last night, just because there was only one guard left around him, in order to prevent him from being attacked while sleeping.

As he expected, it was the prince who was deceived by Li Ke to fight the vanguard, and the one who arrived later to be the fisherman who planned to be the snipe and clam competing for profit was the Smoky Flame Dead Soldier who was carefully used by Li Ke as a treasure, and even the second ranked Red Refining Jun among the martial artists under his command was also lured out, and the people who couldn't even catch a shadow on weekdays were all wiped out last night.

It was said that he should be satisfied, but the last step was interrupted by Yu Yu, who was not supposed to be involved in last night's incident, and when he thought that at that time, Yu suddenly stopped Chi Lian Jun with a loud voice, and played an extremely dangerous little clever, which did stop Chi Lian Jun's footsteps, but also made the other party kill her.

In the face of the sudden attack of the Red Refining Monarch, the twin guards hidden in the shadows would not stop him at all under the condition of his safety as the first priority, while the person sent by Lu Zhi was entangled by the Smolder's Dead Soldier, and no one could stop the soft sword at all.

It's also her fate. He always has the habit of hiding a chess move in his work - inside and outside this small building, including Zhao He, including the relict jade who detoxified him, he doesn't know that the time of his nightmare sleep is not three hours at all!

As early as after Yi Yu was led to his house by Zhao He, he had already woken up, but when things were progressing to the most critical point, he subconsciously stopped the soft sword, but at the same time, he also ruined his future plans...

"......" Lu Zhi was poked in his heart by his words, the calm look on his face cracked, and a nameless fire rose in his heart, which was a thick self-blame.

According to Lu Yao, if Li Tai hadn't stopped him in the end, the sensible and caring sister who was lying in the house since childhood, I am afraid that he would have died now, and he had no intention of thanking him, after all, it was Li Tai who had left the jade behind.

He also had no intention of complaining, after all, his own sister was not protected by him.

This matter is like a basin of cold ice water poured on his head, which has made him a little anxious recently, a lot more sober, and the truly precious things, without perfect protection, even the slightest sign of danger, can spread into a disaster and make her disappear......

Inside the door, Yu Yu's sleeping face was much more stable than before, unaware that the two wonderful men sitting in the living room outside the house were each in deep thought for her business.

Pharmon Fong, Magenta House

As night fell, many families were ready to rest. And the magenta building, which had been sleeping for a day, had just woken up, and the dance floor was full of warblers singing and dancing, and the scattered seats were full of laughter and laughter.

In a spacious private room on the third floor, Li Ke sat on a chair with a gloomy face, his hands trembling as he grabbed the wine glass because he was too angry, and he stared at the spy who was kneeling on the ground.

"Say it again."

It is said that the Red Lianjun and the Smolder Guard, who should have come back early in the morning to report the news, have not returned for a long time, and the first batch of spies sent in the morning have not returned, and he has already felt bad in his heart, Li Chengqian, who woke up in the woman's arms and questioned him after nearly noon, sent a second group of people to Li Tai's secret house to inquire about the news.

But I didn't want this group of useless people to come back at night, and brought the news that he wanted to kill them alive!

The spy's head was close to the ground, and he responded in a trembling voice: "The guards outside King Wei's secret mansion have suddenly quadrupled, and there is no news inside, and the group of people in the morning are gone. ”

Holding back his anger, Li Ke said coldly: "Send more people and continue to investigate!" Go explore! So a large group of people can still turn into ashes and be blown away! ”

"Yes, yes." The spies retreated in a panic, but bumped into the deputy head of the Wu Wangfu who was also acting panicked at the door.

"Master, it's not good, it's not good!"

Li Ke, who was already in a very bad mood, scolded angrily in a low voice: "Bastard, close the door and talk about it!" "Li Chengqian is still on this floor, so he naturally has to avoid speaking.

The deputy steward hurriedly closed the door. Walked quickly to Li Ke and knelt down, in his cold eyes, he hurriedly reported: "Master, someone just sent more than 20 big boxes to our house, because it was a post from the eldest grandson's mansion, the small one was not stopped, Rong Miao's side concubine opened the box when she collected the warehouse, and the sacks inside were all filled with... The little one recognizes one of the Smolderfire Dead..."

He shuddered and took out two identical signs from his sleeves, on which the dragon flew and danced with the word "flame", and the word "flame" was painted red with top-grade cinnabar. That font was written by Li Ke himself!

"Bang!" Li Ke smashed the wine glass in his hand on the person kneeling in front of him, and said with a hideous face: "Get out!" Get lost! ”

The deputy chief covered his bleeding forehead, bowed his head, and then withdrew from the room with a cry of pain.

Li Ke stood up from the chair suddenly, waved off the tea set and plates on the table next to him with one hand, and in the crackling sound, walked to the corner of the screen and kicked the four high-height embroidered screens, stretched out his hand and tore the light veil hanging down everywhere in the room.

The door was pushed open again, and this time it was a beautiful woman with a bewitching figure, looking at the mess in the room, and asked with a sad face:

"Your Highness, but you have received bad news?"

The woman's unique soft voice made Li Ke stop tearing the gauze curtain in his hand for a moment, turned his head and half-squinted his eyes, staring at the woman at the door.

"Shen Manyun! It's not you who hurt the king, isn't it! ”

The bewitching woman named Shen Manyun suddenly showed sadness on her face, her face was full of disbelief, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, do you doubt me?" Man Yun can do without this life for you, you even doubt me? ”

Li Ke's hideous face showed half hesitation, Shen Manyun bit his silver teeth, his face showed a fierce color, bowed to him Yingying, and said softly but clearly: "Your Highness, Manyun wishes you your wish to come true and ascend to a high position as soon as possible." ”

As soon as the words fell, Shen Manyun suddenly turned around and rushed towards the railing, seeing that the posture was actually about to jump from the third floor that was three or four feet high, she didn't hesitate at all, the railing on the third floor was only half the height of her body, as long as she leaned over, she could jump down.

"Don't!"

Li Ke's face changed greatly, in the end, he was just suspicious, and he had some appreciation and love for this woman, and at the same time as he spoke, half of the bewitching woman's body had already probed outside the building. When he saw that he was about to fall, a white figure suddenly jumped out from the side, grabbed the back of her neck like lightning, and after a clip, he sent her to the death line and saved her.

The middle-aged man in white who suddenly came out half-caught Shen Manyun, who had already fainted, and only after she snorted did he enter the house, threw her on the only soft couch that was not kicked over by Li Ke, turned his head and frowned at Li Ke and said:

"Master, be still."

This rebuke-like words did not make Li Ke, who was in anger before, turn his face, and after he took two deep breaths, the blue and white color on his face gradually disappeared, and he returned to the gentle appearance in front of people.
