Chapter 240: The Assassin
Huo Ran didn't say that he protected them, but said to help each other, after all, Jiang Xuan and Jiang Zhi are both men, and saying that they need protection will also make them feel uncomfortable.
"That's okay, everyone is also an acquaintance, but what are you doing in the capital? Is it also a business?"
Jiang Zhi was very familiar with Huo Ran's conversation, and even Jiang Zhi got on Huo Ran's horse, Huo Ran didn't say anything, generously gave it to him, and went to ride another horse by himself.
Huo Ran's subordinates were all shocked, this prince is too generous, even his beloved horse can be let out, it seems that in order to please his daughter-in-law, the eldest uncle has to be happy.
Jiang Xuan didn't speak, but returned to the carriage with Jiang Mi, and the group continued to hurry.
Fortunately, they brought a lot of food, and they didn't have to worry about eating and drinking along the way.
Sure enough, it was very late in the night, and I saw a very remote inn, although the conditions were not very good, but it was better than sleeping in the wilderness.
Jiang Xuan and Jiang Zhi both felt that it was nothing, they all suffered when they were children, and Jiang Mi didn't feel anything, but Huo Ran looked accustomed to it, which made Jiang Mi feel very surprised.
Jiang Mi slept in a room by herself, Jiang Zhi and Jiang Xuan, the two brothers, were used to saving, so they lived together at night and saved the money for a room, but when they paid the money, they found that Huo Ran had already paid for it.
"This Huo Ran, it's strange to be so polite, speaking of which, he is still the big financier of our family." Jiang Zhi not only sighed, but the big money is broad-minded, and he doesn't care about this little money at all.
Jiang Xuan just listened, and didn't say anything, he kept following Jiang Mi closely, I don't know if it was his delusion, he always felt that this Huo Ran wanted to get close to Jiang Mi intentionally or unintentionally, those eyes almost never left Jiang Mi, and a clear-eyed person felt that he was too enthusiastic.
"Huo Gongzi, it's not early, you should rest early."
Jiang Xuan stopped Huo Ran and stopped him from continuing to follow Jiang Mi, this person is definitely not that simple.
"Okay, then you guys should rest early, we have to get up early tomorrow morning to hurry." z.br>
Huo Ran also felt that his performance was too obvious, after he was reminded by Jiang Xuan, he immediately turned around and went back to his room, if he continued, he was afraid that he would annoy the two brothers-in-law.
It was the first time that Jiang Mi had sat in such a carriage for such a long time, she had eaten and bathed and fell asleep, and she slept very sweetly this night, until she heard some movement on the roof in the middle of the night, and she was woken up.
"What's that?" She muttered to herself, she finally slept so soundly, who made a movement in the middle of the night?
She rolled over and sensed that something was wrong, who would go on the roof of a good person? Isn't there a bad guy?
Thinking of this, she hurriedly got up and got dressed, and found that the person on the roof went to the right, she also hurriedly opened the door and went out, followed the footsteps to the right, and did not stop until Huo Ran's door.
No movement? Could it be that the villain is coming for Huo Ran?
Just when Jiang Mi was hesitating to call someone, the door was suddenly opened from the inside, and Huo Ran was only wearing a white single dress, staring at her in the hazy night.
Jiang Mi's face turned red again, how did this person manage to be so serious and tempting?
"What's wrong? Can't you sleep?" Huo Ran's voice was very gentle, especially in the night, as if there was a little more bewitchment.
Jiang Mi almost forgot the purpose of her coming, she came back to her senses and said, "No, I just heard a voice over here, so I came over to take a look, this voice disappeared when it came to you, did you hear it?"
Of course Huo Ran heard it, if he didn't hear it, he wouldn't have come over to open the door, he didn't expect to open the door and see the woman he liked.
"Shhhhhhhh......h
Sure enough, after a while, there was the sound of broken tiles inside, and then the window on the other side was opened, and then someone quietly walked to the bed, raised a long sword high, and slashed at the bed.
"Bang-" There was a very heavy voice from inside, and it was obvious that the man had used all his strength.
Jiang Mi opened her mouth wide in surprise, it seems that this person is going to put Huo Ran to death!
She turned her head to look at Huo Ran, and saw that Huo Ran's expression was still very calm, and she didn't seem to be surprised, and it seemed to be commonplace.
When the people inside realized that something was wrong and wanted to escape, Jiang Mi was just about to remind Huo Ran, but at this time, Liu Min and the others seemed to have been waiting outside, and a group of people blocked the person inside, and then Huo Ran and Jiang Mi also followed.
"Say, Who sent you?" Liu Min first glanced at Huo Ran, and then pressed the assassin to question.
The assassin saw that he had no hope of escaping, the corners of his mouth moved, Liu Min hurriedly shouted badly, hurriedly rushed up, and pressed the person's mouth, but unfortunately it was over, the person had already bitten the poison in his mouth and swallowed it, and died of poison.
"Master?"
Liu Min called out and lowered his head very reproachfully, "It's all my fault, I should have thought that he had poison in his mouth, but he still let him succeed."
Huo Ran didn't care: "It's okay, anyway, you and I know who did it, besides that person, who else will there be?"
Liu Min only lowered his head and didn't speak, Huo Ran waved his hand, and the rest of the people moved the body out and cleaned up the room again.
Liu Min felt uncomfortable and asked, "Master, do you want to change your room?"
Huo Ran was stunned for a moment and said, "Let's change, it's already dirty here, and I don't want to continue living here."
Huo Ran's room was arranged next to Jiang Mi, not because they did it on purpose, but there was only one room left, Huo Ran looked at Jiang Mi's expression, and asked worriedly, "Did you scare you just now?"
Jiang Mi shook her head: "It's okay, I'm afraid I'll see more in the future, you're also frightened, rest early."
Huo Ran always felt very worried when she looked at Jiang Mi's back, but Jiang Mi didn't look back, she lay back on the bed, but this time she couldn't sleep, she didn't fall asleep again until dawn, so when she got to the carriage, she began to feel sleepy.
Jiang Xuan's face was stinky, and he asked, "Didn't Huo Gongzi sleep in the east room last night?" Why did you come out of the honey next door this morning?"
Jiang Zhi was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Really? I didn't pay much attention, did you remember wrong?"
Jiang Xuan looked at him coldly: "Impossible, I am absolutely not mistaken, and I am not mistaken, but you, as an elder brother, have no heart for honey at all."
