It was late at night, the rain had stopped, and not long after Zifeng returned to Wude Hall, Zhou Yunqi came.

Zifeng asked, "How's it going?" ”

Zhou Yunqi said in a low voice: "When you came out of Liufu, he followed you all the way, until he saw you enter the Yiwang Mansion, he turned his head and rushed to the Prince's Mansion, how did he know that the praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches were behind, and before he reached the Prince's Mansion, I slaughtered him halfway, and then threw him into the alley near the Yiwang Mansion." ”

"Well done."

Zhou Yunqi really lived up to expectations, and Zifeng praised: "Tomorrow the prince will know, the Wing King is surrounded by thorns, not something he can touch if he wants to." A sneer crossed his lips.

Zhou Yunqi said with some concern: "It's just that the hall master, Yunqi still thinks that you are a little too risky to do this, risking your net worth and life to fish, in case I lose my hand, you will be in danger, even if I don't miss it, if you are discovered by the Wing King...... Anyway, I don't want you to do anything like this again, otherwise, if something happens, I'll ......"

"Yunqi don't worry too much, I know in my heart, it's not too early, you go back and rest first, and we'll talk about tomorrow tomorrow." Zi Feng's expression was indifferent.

"The hall master...... Yes, Yun Qi understands. Zhou Yunqi retreated.

……

Zifeng returned to Liufu, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw Liu Qingyun standing upright in his room.

"It's so late, why are you standing in my room if you don't sleep, is there something wrong?"

Liu Qingyun's face was cold, and she asked, "Yes, it's so late, it's still raining, what are you doing?" ”

Zi Feng said: "There are a lot of things in Wudetang. ”

Liu Qingyun: "Why are you busy so late?" ”

Zi Feng: "Wudetang has never been idle. ”

Out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a puddle of water stains on the ground, and his eyes swept over Liu Qingyun's long skirt, only to find that most of the hem of the long skirt was wet, obviously, those water stains were dripping from her skirt.

Zi Feng's heart suddenly tightened, and he suddenly shot at the cold star, and said in a muffled voice: "Liu Qingyun, you dare to follow me?!" ”

Liu Qingyun stared at him with straight eyes, for a long time, and said: "That's right, I followed when you went out on a rainy night, I saw you go up to the roof of the Yiwang Mansion alone, and saw a person behind you who has been following you twenty steps away, and I know that with your kung fu, it is impossible not to know that there is a person following you, but you pretend not to know, I originally thought, if that person shoots at you, I will make a move, who knows, but then he turned around and left, I saw that the direction he walked should be to the prince's mansion, I guess, Is he going to report your whereabouts to the prince? I wanted to kill him, but before I could do it, someone came out and killed him before me, and the murderer was Zhou Yunqi! ”

Purple Wind was silent.

Liu Qingyun asked, "Who is the person Zhou Yunqi killed?" ”

Zi Feng looked at her coldly, and only faintly replied with four words in his mouth: "Be the one to kill." ”

Liu Qingyun asked: "Who should be killed?" ”

Zifeng frowned and said, "It's not your father anyway." ”

Liu Qingyun: "What are you risking?" ”

"Enough, Liu Qingyun! Don't you know what to ask and what not to ask?! Purple Wind roared, apparently losing his patience.

Liu Qingyun took a step closer to him and said in a low voice: "Zifeng, I know, there have been a lot of things near the Yiwang Mansion recently, the emperor's people are dead, and Wudetang is also dying every day, and you are still running out so late, you don't tell me anything, don't tell me anything, do you know how worried I am about you?!" ”

Zi Feng took a deep breath, he couldn't tell her a lot of things, let alone how to say them, not because she didn't understand, but because she was the daughter of the Sky Shaking Tiger. No matter how much she hated her father in her heart, after all, what flowed in her body was the blood of the Sky Shaking Tiger, and if she rushed to this point, if the Sky Shaking Tiger did not die for a day, he would not tell her any of his plans and actions.

Liu Qingyun's face turned pale and asked, "Zifeng, what are you doing?" You've confused me, what are you doing in the Wing King's Mansion? Or are you just trying to kill that person today? Don't make up stories, you tell me the truth! ”

After a moment of silence, Zi Feng said, "You're right, I just made a scene today, just for the person who followed me. His name is Liu Mingyu, he was originally a deacon of Wudetang, he is a close confidant of the prince, and I only recently learned that the prince has been ordering him to monitor my movements, and he has reported my words and deeds to the prince, so I deliberately designed him to follow me to the Yiwang Mansion today......"

Liu Qingyun said: "Just because there are too many people from Wudetang near the Wing King's Mansion, his death will naturally become killed by the Wing King, and the prince will not notice that you did it, right?" ”

Purple Wind nodded in acquiescence.

Liu Qingyun said: "From the time Zhou Yunqi carried that person's body back and threw it at the mouth of that alley, I knew your intentions. You are too risky, the insidiousness of the prince is by no means as simple as you see, once he finds out, your life is in danger. ”

Zifeng said: "I know how to protect myself, so don't worry, and also, don't follow me in the future, never stand behind me, understand?" ”

The two looked at each other and were silent.

After being silent for a long time, Zi Feng reached out and pinched her arm, trying to calm her tone as much as possible, "Qingyun, I know what I'm doing, and I know what to do, it's better for you not to participate, so as not to burn yourself." ”

Liu Qingyun said bitterly: "You are busy every day, I know that you are doing things for the prince and working hard for him, but you don't know how important your life is to me, in this family, I only have you." ”

"You still have your father!" Purple Wind blurted out.

"Purple Wind! You know what I mean, you don't have to taunt me like that all the time. Liu Qingyun was a little anxious.

Zi Feng looked at her quietly: "I didn't mean to mock you, I just reminded you that you still have a father!" He's a Sky Shaker, I said, I won't kill him, and that's because he's your father, you know? Your father is living a good life, don't make the mistake of thinking that he is an orphan. ”

A trace of sadness flashed in Liu Qingyun's eyes: "It's still because of my father, I know that as long as he is still my father, as long as he is alive, it is impossible for you to open up to me." Zifeng, I don't mean anything else, I just hope you don't fight him anymore, it's not worth it to take your life for that heart knot! Zifeng, you know, I'm so scared, every day when you go out, I feel flustered! ”

No matter how cold Zifeng's heart is, Liu Qingyun's sincere feelings for him will still touch the weakest place in his heart, and he said gently:

"I know, Wudetang has been really busy lately, don't worry, I'll be careful."

In the final analysis, after all, it is still the identity of "the daughter of the Sky Shaking Tiger", like a thick barrier between them, and the two of them also know it, but this barrier is as hard as iron, at least when the Sky Shaking Tiger is alive, it is difficult to shake.

……

And everything was as Zifeng expected, the next day, when the prince learned the news of Liu Mingyu's killing, he rushed to Wudetang in a rage, and was furious, asking Zifeng why he asked Liu Mingyu to monitor the Yiwang Mansion and why he wanted him to participate in the operation.

Zi Feng was not in a hurry, and replied indifferently: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Zi Feng did not send Liu Mingyu to do any risky actions. ”

The prince was furious and roared: "Then why did Liu Mingyu appear near the Yiwang Mansion and be killed? Is it because you didn't arrange it properly, or do you have other selfish intentions? ”

Zifeng replied unhurriedly: "Zifeng is not selfish. ”

The prince's eyes were full of fire, and he said in a deep voice: "Then you should tell me, why did he die?" He's a deacon, and you've always kept him in the action, so why did you send him this time? He was the former chief deacon of Wudetang, and now he is dead when he says he is dead, you need to give me an explanation! ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince......" Zi Feng was stopped by the prince as soon as he spoke.

"You don't have to quibble, I want to hear what they have to say."

The crown prince glared at Zifeng fiercely, turned to a commander and asked, "Xiao Ze, you have been in Wude Hall for six years, this prince can trust you, you say, why did your hall master send Liu Mingyu to death?!" “

The commander bowed down and clenched his fists, and replied: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this matter is definitely not the idea of the hall master, and no one has asked him to send him to death, this is Liu Mingyu's own idea." ”

"His own idea? How can it be? The prince looked at him incredulously.

The commander replied: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you don't know, in recent days, Feisha Wuyin has suffered heavy losses, and the Wude cousins have been killed one after another, and the brothers are all in danger and their morale is low. Liu Mingyu proposed that the hall master of Wude Hall should personally participate in the monitoring of the Wing Wangfu and the interception of its disciples, so as to set an example in order to revive the majesty of the Wude Hall, and all the deacons and commanders should take the lead, so the hall master adopted his suggestion, and the hall master personally went out to explore the Wing Palace, and several of our leaders and deacons were also dispatched. ”

"In order to prevent the brothers from being discovered by the people of the Wing King, the hall master also ordered everyone to keep a sufficient distance from the palace, but for some reason, we all saw Liu Mingyu run into the alley without authorization, which led to being killed, and we, the brothers who strictly followed the instructions of the hall master to stay away from the Wing King's Mansion, are all safe and sound."

"Smack", the prince angrily smashed a white jade teacup in his hand and scolded: "It must be Liu Mingyu's greed for merit that led to the murder, this idiot!" ”

The commander replied: "Your Highness, last night the hall master braved the rain to explore the Wing Palace, and he almost encountered an accident, if it wasn't for Zhou Yunqi's quick response, I'm afraid the hall master wouldn't be able to stand here properly at this time." ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, the prince looked at Zifeng, the anger in his eyes was slightly subdued, but his face was still gloomy, and he asked, "Have you found anything?" ”

Zi Feng said: "Back to Your Highness, last night Zi Feng took advantage of the wind and rain to sneak into the palace and saw a few people. ”

The prince asked, "Who?" ”

Purple Wind: "Hot Black Wood, Dongfang Jue, Zang Feiyi, and Hot Black Wood's daughter, and more than 100 guards." ”

The prince frowned: "I didn't see them for a few days, and I thought they had left a long time ago, but it turned out that they hadn't left yet?" Are these guys planning to live in the Wing Palace? Could it be that they want to do it? There are more than 100 guards in the palace? That's tricky...... You can't kill it, you can't drive it away, how can this be good? ”

He glanced at Zi Feng, who was cold, and a faint smile was provoked at the corner of his mouth, and he said gently: "Zi Feng, this prince didn't check, but he wronged you, you don't have to take it to heart." ”

Zifeng bowed: "Zifeng doesn't dare." ”

The prince asked, "Then tell me what we should do next?" ”

Zi Feng said: "I can only wait for the opportunity to move." At present, they either don't show up in the mansion, or they just hug each other, we can't find a chance at all, Zi Feng thinks that the assassination can't be successful, it is better to lure the snake out of the hole and break it down. ”

The prince raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "How to lure the snake out of the hole?" ”

Zi Feng said: "At present, we can't act rashly, so as not to startle the snake, there are many guards in the palace, we can't bargain, Zi Feng thinks, since they don't come out, we can set up a bait to lure them out of the city and kill them one by one." ”

Hearing this, the prince closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said, "Okay, I don't care what method you use, what I want to see is the result, understand?" ”

Purple Wind's forehead: "Yes, Your Highness." ”

How did the prince know that Zifeng's so-called method of "luring the snake out of the hole" was the idea given to him by his younger brother Gao Le, and he used this method to kill Feisha Wuyin a few days ago, which was really unpleasant, and then he generously "sent" this idea to Zifeng.

The prince asked again, "What has the Sky Shaking Tiger been busy with lately?" He is never seen. “

Zifeng replied: "My master is busy, maybe he is busy with the errand you sent him." “

"An errand sent to him by Prince Ben? When did I send him some errand?! The prince snorted coldly, his face gloomy.
