Views:

Hearing Shen Rongxi's words, Ning Jiuwei took a step forward. She didn't want to cause trouble, but this Shen Rongxi was pushing the envelope a bit.

Ning Jiuwei turned around, raised her hand and grabbed the guard's hand. When she heard a "click", the guard covered his shoulders and took a few steps back.

"Don't follow me." After Ning Jiuwei said that, he ignored the others.

Mu Xiaoxiao stood aside and watched without saying a word, because to her, this matter had nothing to do with her, so why should she humiliate herself.

"What are you doing standing there, why don't you go and arrest them both." Shen Rongxi jumped angrily.

"Forget it, Xi'er, why bother with them? They are just fools." Mu Xiaoxiao said.

When Shen Rongxi heard Mu Xiaoxiao's words, she said unhappily: "No, they treated me like this today. If I don't teach them a lesson, I, the princess, will never see anyone again."

"Then you don't want to see anyone. I'll give you some disfiguring medicine, and you can legitimately stay at home from now on. Do you want to give it a try?" Qi Lexuan turned her head, shook the bottle in her hand, and said happily .

"You...you dare?" Shen Rongxi suddenly covered her face with lingering fear, pointed at Qi Lexuan, and said with a trembling voice.

Qi Lexuan looked at Shen Rongxi, showing an eight-toothed smile, which was extremely bright. She smiled and said, "Then you still dare to stop me?"

"Princess?" The guard looked at Shen Rongxi and shouted softly.

"Let them go." Shen Rongxi said angrily.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Shen Rongxi's furious look and said, "Xi'er, don't be angry. They are all reckless. They were kicked out by my aunt two days ago. You don't have to be ordinary."

"Is this happening? What's going on, Xiaoxiao, tell me." Shen Rongxi asked curiously.

Ning Jiuwei, who had left long ago, looked at Qi Lexuan and asked, "Lexuan, tell me the truth, did you give me the antidote?"

"Jiuwei, didn't you realize that what I gave you wasn't the antidote?" Qi Lexuan said, looking at Ning Jiuwei in surprise.

Ning Jiuwei looked forward and said with a slight curl of his lips: "I have been with you for five years. When have you ever been so obedient, especially when you were scolded?"

"Jiuwei, do you know that when she asked her maid to beat me just now, I was so angry that she thought she was the princess, so I asked her to see what happened to the princess. If she offended me, let her I regret it to death." Qi Lexuan raised her chin and said.

"Don't go too far, I am the princess."

"No, there are no clues at all, but as Gu Qingchen said, I did see some abnormal people near Mu Mansion." Qi Lexuan said while holding a bunch of candied haws.

Hearing Qi Lexuan's words, Ning Jiu nodded slightly. The longer she stayed in the capital, the more uneasy she felt, especially after meeting the Mu family and Qin Lin.

"Le Xuan, get ready. Let's go explore it tonight." Ning Jiuwei said.

Qi Lexuan was stunned for a moment, then said: "Jiu Wei, don't be impulsive. Those people must have extraordinary skills to attack Brother Chu. Let's check again. They go there so recklessly..."

"We don't have time. We have been here for three days. My mother is not in good health. I want to go back to be with her as soon as possible. And I only need to catch one person tonight. I didn't say that I would fight hard." Ning Jiuwei looked at Qi Lexuan He spoke.

"Okay, now that you've decided, it's useless for me to say anything. I'll prepare more poison tonight, and you bring your piano." Qi Lexuan took a bite of the candied haws and said.

"Yeah." Ning Jiu nodded slightly.

… … ..

That night, Ning Jiuwei and the other two put on black clothes, jumped out from the back window of the restaurant, and headed straight to Mu Mansion along the road.

"Jiu Wei, I have told Gu Qingchen the news, do you think he will come out? What if he is too timid to come out?" Qi Lexuan asked in a low voice.

Ning Jiuwei looked at Qi Lexuan, and then said: "It doesn't matter, as long as he comes out, that's it. If he doesn't, I will tie him out and throw him to the ground."

Qi Lexuan looked at Ning Jiuwei with bright eyes and said, "Jiu Wei, I didn't expect you to be so... In Sister Long's words, you are a sinister person."

However, Ning Jiuwei frowned slightly, feeling the sound of the wind rustling the leaves, and stopped, staring at the surroundings defensively.

"What's wrong? Is someone following us?" Qi Lexuan frowned and said softly.

Ning Jiuwei looked serious and said, "Who is it? Come out."

However, the only thing that responded to her was the sound of Xiao Sa's wind. There was no one, and the moonlight shone through the branches, which made Ning Jiuwei's frown tighten even more.

"Jiuwei, could you have heard wrongly?" Qi Lexuan asked softly.

Ning Jiuwei shook her head. She had clearly felt it just now, but suddenly it disappeared. Then there was only one possibility. This person was a master.

"Let's go." After a while, Ning Jiuwei gave up after not feeling the person's breath anymore, turned around and said to Qi Lexuan.

The two of them were walking in tandem, not too fast. As Ning Jiuwei walked, she felt the movement around her attentively. For some reason, she always felt that there was someone behind her, but she didn't know where it was.

"Jiuwei, listen, there seems to be a sound of fighting ahead. Has Gu Qingchen been assassinated?" Qi Lexuan pointed to the sound coming not far away and said.

Ning Jiuwei also heard it, and with a tap of her toes, her body flew out as light as a swan goose, heading straight towards the sound that just came from, while Qi Lexuan followed closely behind.

When Ning Jiuwei and two others arrived, they saw Gu Qingchen surrounded by more than thirty men in black. The swords and swords were as cold as a cold pool.

"How are you?" The silver needle in Ning Jiuwei's hand blocked the knife chopped off by a man in black, and then landed next to Gu Qingchen and asked softly.

Gu Qingchen looked at Ning Jiuwei's cold face, shook his head and smiled and said, "I'm fine."

"Who is it? Get out of the way quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being rude." The man in black pointed the sword at Ning Jiuwei and Qi Lexuan, and said in a sinister voice.

Ning Jiu curled her lips slightly, walked up slowly, and said, "Are you rude? I want to see why you are rude? Five years ago, did you kill Chu Tianyi so rudely?" "

Hearing Ning Jiuwei's words, the man in black's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at Ning Jiuwei with a slightly focused gaze and asked, "Who are you from Chu Tianyi?"

"It seems that you people really killed him. I just want to ask who killed him. Give him to me and I will let you live." Ning Jiuwei stared at the leader in black with a pair of phoenix eyes.

The man in black paused. Are you kidding? The person who killed Chu Tianyi was their pavilion master. Do they want to hand over the pavilion master

"Since you insist on refusing to leave, don't blame us for taking action." The man in black said, tilting his head slightly.

The men in black, who had been motionless just now, all started to take action, surrounding the three of them, unsheathing their swords and using ruthless tactics.

Although Qi Lexuan's martial arts skills were mediocre, there were so many poisons on her body that everyone who came close fell to the ground.

And Gu Qingchen's swordsmanship is even more superb. Just when he was outnumbered, he was at a disadvantage. Now his swordsmanship is like a swimming dragon, moving like wind and thunder.

Not to mention Ning Jiuwei, the hidden weapon in his hand was like flying flowers, small and delicate, but his moves were vicious, and many people's skills were ruined because of it.

The purpose of the three people was very clear, which was to catch the leader in black and find out who was behind it. Ning Jiuwei wanted to know who killed Chu Tianyi, while Gu Qingchen wanted to know who wanted to To hunt him down.

The black-clothed leader looked at the three upright but highly skilled young men and shook his head secretly. It seemed that the stabbing mission had failed. If it failed this time, he might not have another chance in the future.

Ning Jiuwei pressed forward step by step, shooting the silver needles in her hands at the leader in black one after another, but she missed repeatedly. This made her feel worried. If a leader in black was so powerful, how could he kill Chu Tianyi? How high is a person's martial arts skills

Just when Ning Jiuwei was distracted, the leader in black seized the opportunity, raised his hand and struck Ning Jiuwei directly on the chest.

"Pfft~" Ning Jiuwei covered her chest, took a few steps back, and spit out a mouthful of blood.
