The ghost husband of Jinxiu's good fortune comes to the door

Chapter 99 The Eve of the Palace Banquet
The night was very quiet, dark clouds closed the moon, no stars were visible in the night sky, there was a cool breeze, and there was a curfew in the capital. It was obviously silent, and the sound of insects could be heard. Occasionally, the sound of a watchman beeping could be heard.

In the west courtyard of the Hou Mansion, Li Ruoxian was sitting on the stone steps in the courtyard, holding her knees with her hands and looking out at the endless night. There was only a half-inch long candle at her feet. The scenery becomes the only bright spot in the dark night.

The symphony of crickets in the yard, Li Ruoxian looked ahead with deep eyes...

Since returning to Beijing, a lot of things have happened, and there is only such a quiet night, where she can be alone and listen quietly.

After a long time, Li Ruoxian withdrew her gaze from afar and sighed softly, what's wrong with her, why is her heart empty, and she feels like something is missing?
Is it because that noisy Yan Xingchen is not by her side?Is it because I'm used to him being by her side all the time, but now that he's not here, I can't get used to it?

Why worry about his safety?Sitting in the yard waiting for him without sleeping in the middle of the night, it seemed that he had become a part of her life and could not be let go.

Li Ruoxian stood up and patted her skirt?Holding the candle in the palm of his hand, looking at the flickering candle in his palm, Yan Xingchen's smiling face slowly appeared in the candlelight, Li Ruoxian's heart suddenly missed a beat, she seemed to be moved...

Such a subtle feeling made Li Ruoxian frowned slightly. She had always been rational and calm, but she couldn't control her heart.

She was in a daze again for a while, and finally Li Ruoxian sighed softly, turned and walked towards the room.

The candles in the west courtyard were gradually extinguished, and everything fell into silence, and then this dark and stormy night was destined to be not peaceful...

In the darkness, a black figure came over the wall, standing firmly in Li Ruoxian's yard, looking at the closed door, the black figure slowly approached Li Ruoxian's room...

As soon as the candle was blown out, Li Ruoxian was about to go to bed when she turned her head and saw a black shadow outside the window getting closer to her room, a mocking smile flashed in Li Ruoxian's bright eyes.

Li Ruoxian: Li Qiumei, are you finally going to kill me?It's a pity, I'm afraid you will disappoint you again this time. Not only will I live a good life, but I will live a better life than you... Even if Yan Xingchen is not around, how could such a character kill me?
The bolt on the door was moved away bit by bit by the bright dagger, and the person who came quickly reached out to catch the wooden bolt that was about to fall to the ground, and then slowly pushed the door open.

As the door opened, light gradually illuminated the entire room, and a pair of wolf-like eyes scanned the room.

Before he could see the situation in the room clearly, the sound of "swish swish" pierced through the air, and with the bright silver light sandwiched, it went towards the major acupuncture points on his body with lightning speed.

The man in black narrowed his eyes coldly. He is a top killer, and he is more than enough to deal with these small hidden weapons. He raised his hand and waved the dagger in his hand, and used his sensitive swordsmanship to knock out the silver needles that were flying straight towards him. However, no matter how agile the black-clothed man was, he couldn't resist wave after wave of flying needle attacks.

After a cup of tea, the man in black held the dagger in his hand and was out of breath. Even though he blocked the flying needles with extremely fast swordsmanship, there were still a few silver needles too late to stop them, and they had already penetrated into his arms and thighs, causing a tingling feeling. All over his limbs and bones, the man in black frowned, and cold sweat broke out layer by layer.

The man in black cursed in his heart, it was really embarrassing to be plotted against by a Ruo woman who had no power to restrain a chicken.

The room was too dark, only because there was no moonlight tonight. The man in black swung his dagger, and he slashed wildly towards the dark space. Eyes without a trace of emotion.

In the darkness, the man in black only saw these icy eyes, and she was also dressed in black, blending into the night.

He, the first-class master of the majestic killer organization, was beaten up like this, and was captured alive by a weak young lady!
The man in black felt that the sky was thundering, but he never expected that this young lady would not go to bed in the middle of the night, but actually waited for the rabbit. Did she know that someone was coming to kill her tonight?
No, the employer made it very clear that this is a weak woman, that's why he took it so lightly, thinking that the assassination of the task this time was a matter of hand, and he didn't do any investigation, and directly killed her alone.

Who can tell him why this woman used a hidden weapon and appeared behind him so strangely to hold him hostage, and she seemed to be able to punch him.

He is a dead soldier, if the task is not completed, he can only apologize with death. Thinking of this, a murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the man in black. sideways, broke free from control, and stabbed straight towards Li Ruoxian's abdomen with the dagger...

The corner of Li Ruoxian's mouth raised a weird smile, he covered his nose, and suddenly stepped back several steps. Following Li Ruoxian's retreat, the black-clothed killer followed closely.

However, the speed of the killer in black is comparable to that of a tortoise. The man in black was wondering why he was moving so slowly. Suddenly, he felt a sharp throbbing pain in his heart. The sword was no longer able to hold it, and it fell to the ground with a "bang", making a crisp sound.

Li Ruoxian covered her mouth and nose, and lit the candles in the room. Seeing the man in black curled up and rolling on the ground in pain, wriggling like a caterpillar, she couldn't help feeling a little funny, a little funny.

Opening the window to let the smell of medicine dissipate in the room, Li Ruoxian let go of his mouth and nose, breathing in the fresh air.

Li Ruoxian is very grateful to her master, Mrs. Wankong. She taught her the flying needle technique and the poison technique. The poisoning is only for self-defense and self-protection. It is only because she has a long photo that makes all women jealous. The face of misfortune that all men love.

I remember the master once said: "Xianxian, you know that as soon as you leave this mountain, troubles in the world will follow. Some things are not for your kindness, and the other party will let it go. You can only become better than anyone else. Those people are afraid of you, and being soft-hearted will only kill you, remember."

Li Ruoxian turned her head to look at the painful face twisted on the ground, but her eyes were fixed on the man in black who was staring at her. The man's eyes were sharp, with some appreciation and disbelief.

Li Ruoxian walked up to the man in black, looked him up casually, and asked coldly, "Are you a dead man?... How strange, are all the killers like this?"

Beads of sweat the size of soybeans were already covered on the forehead of the man in black, his lips quivered slightly, and he asked hoarsely, "What poison did you inject?" He would close his eyes and go to see Hades.

Li Ruoxian raised her eyebrows, seeing the man in black sweating dripping from the tormented face, she shook her head regretfully, "Tell me, how much will you pay for your life?" Seeing that your life is not long, I will be with you for the last time business."

"What?" The man in black was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect the other party to answer the wrong question. What the hell kind of question is this, and she wants to pay a high price for his life?

Seeing the astonishment in the eyes of the man in black, Li Ruoxian smiled calmly, "Didn't the killers always only care about money? I'll pay double the price for your life and let you pick flowers, how about it?" "

The man in black closed his eyes, the corners of his mouth turned bruised, and after another round of heartache, he asked in extreme confusion, "Picking flowers!!"

"You are doomed to die anyway. If you fail to kill me, you will die if you fail the mission. Why don't you listen to me and do a romantic thing. Your money can be left to your family. If you don't agree, you will die now... ...I can give you some time to think about it." Li Ruoxian seemed to have a natural mind for doing business, even the dead.

The man in black didn't think about it for too long, "Are you really going to send my reward to my family?" Not much, it's just that the double remuneration can become his private property, he is tempted...

Li Ruoxian nodded calmly, "Of course, tell me where your family lives, and I will send it to you tomorrow. Of course, if you have any last words, I can also send them to you..."

The man in black took a deep look at Li Ruoxian, smiled bitterly at the end, and then shook his head. He would be plotted against by a woman. This life is really sad enough.

In the county prince's mansion, the patrolling soldiers still took their duties in an orderly manner. No one noticed that a gray mist floated to the roof of Rongyu County, and then floated into the room like lightning.

Rong Yujun, who was wearing a purple robe, was sitting in front of the desk, bowing his head and writing vigorously. His face was still the same cold face that hadn't changed for a hundred years, and there was a heroic look between his brows, and his serious and focused eyes were somewhat similar to Yan Xingchen's. , there was a handkerchief folded into a square by his hand, and the lotus pattern on the handkerchief was lifelike. This was the handkerchief that Li Ruoxian had thrown away.

Yan Xingchen walked a few steps, raised his hand and pointed his palm at Rong Yujun, a silver light emanated from his palm, covering Rongyu Jun in it...

The silver light is different from the weak warm light of the candle. The patrolling guards soon discovered the abnormality in Rong Yujun's room, and immediately knocked on the door eagerly. Seeing that there was no sound coming from inside, the head guard's heart jumped a few times for no reason. Pat, gritted his teeth, knocked open the door, and asked with concern: "My lord, are you alright?"

In the room, Rong Yujun turned his back to everyone, the silver light on his body gradually faded, and then he turned his head with a cold face, "What can I do?"

Following Rong Yujun's turn around, the guards secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that they were overthinking. The prince's martial arts is so strong that even a formidable killer can't get close to him.

The head guard carefully looked at Rong Yujun's complexion, and finally bowed his head and folded his fists to plead guilty, "This subordinate deserves to die, for trespassing without the master's permission, please punish me."

Rong Yujun just glanced at the chief guard, then waved his hands, and said in a flat tone, "Go down!"

The guards retreated in response, expressing confusion at the master's gentle handling.In the past, if anyone broke in without the master's permission, he would be fined to kneel for half an hour, but today... since when did the master be so talkative!
