business lady

Chapter 46
In the dead of night, in the mansion of Dali Temple Qing Guochao.

Since Guo Chao was assassinated last time, he has been in panic all day long. He lives in fear every day. He always feels that the assassin is hiding in the dark and watching him, and he will give him a fatal blow when he relaxes.

He couldn't sleep day and night, he finally fell asleep tonight, and had the nightmare of being chased and killed by the assassin again, and finally woke up, before he woke up from the dream, he saw himself At some point, someone hung a steel knife around his neck.

The steel knife was glowing fiercely in the night light, and he slowly looked sideways along the knife, and saw a black-clothed masked man standing in front of the bed with a steel knife in his hand.

Seeing that he woke up, he said to him in a gloomy voice: "Don't blame me if Mr. Guo has gone to Lord Yan. If you want to blame, blame you for knowing too much!"

After speaking, he raised the steel knife and slashed at him fiercely. When the light reflected from the steel knife closed his eyes, he thought to himself that my life was over.

At this critical moment, there was only a "clank" in my ears, and I opened my eyes to see that the steel knife was blocked by a thin sword, less than an inch away from my neck.

He was still in shock, the man had already fought with the gangster with the steel knife, he saw figures flying quickly in the room, his eyes were dazzled, and he couldn't tell who was who, occasionally there was the cold light of swords and swords There was a flash in front of his eyes, and the sound of "clank" swords colliding in his ears kept making him tremble with fear.

Not long after, I heard that gloomy voice say: "You are lucky today!" After speaking, a figure flashed out of the window and disappeared.

It seemed that he was defeated by those who came later. Guo Chao was overjoyed when he saw it. It seemed that the villain had been beaten away by this man.

Still wanting to say something, the man sneered and said in a bad tone: "You don't have to thank me, I just wanted to kill you to avenge my parents by myself!" After speaking, he walked towards him, the sword in his hand It refers to the place where Guo Chao's neck is no more than an inch away.

Guo Chao's frightened legs limp on the ground, looking at her through the dim light, and listening to her voice, he can't hear her wrongly, this is the voice that appears in his nightmares every day, coming from hell to take revenge on him the sound of!

It was the assassin that day. He lived in anxiety every day, fearing that she would come looking for him, but now that she really did, he felt a sense of acceptance that he could not escape!
She sneered and said: "Hmph! You are a dog official, you are so reckless about human life, it seems that I am not the only one who wants to kill you!"

After hearing her words, Guo Chao thought of what the villain with the steel knife said before doing it, saying that he knew too much and wanted to kill himself to silence him. Could it be them? !

I was startled and suddenly thought that he seemed to have found the only straw to save his life. He knelt down on the ground towards her and said in a hurried voice: "Heroine, please spare me! I know I deserve death, but your father's I am not the real culprit, I just obey orders."

When she heard this, the sword in her hand moved forward fiercely. The point of the sword pierced his flesh. A faint smell of iron rust could be smelled in front of him, and the body kneeling on the ground trembled slightly in fright, and cold sweat dripped down his face like rain.

She asked in a harsh voice, "Whose orders are you listening to?"

".Yes. It was ordered by Wan Chong of the Duke Protector's Mansion, the current Minister of War, Mr. Wan Chongwan!" Shocked, he immediately said loudly, fearing that he would not have the chance to speak if it was too late.

Speaking of this secret that he had buried for more than ten years, he himself breathed a sigh of relief.

After she heard this, she tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, and the tip of the sword twisted around his neck. Although the wound didn't deepen, it hurt even more, but Guo Chao could only kneel on the ground, enduring the pain on his neck. It was so painful that I couldn't even move.

After waiting for a long time, she asked again, "Say! Why did he want you to harm my parents?"

"I don't know about that! At that time, I was very soft-spoken, so how could he tell me the reason!" Apart from knowing that Mu Ji and the Duke's Mansion are brothers-in-law, he really didn't know anything about it.

He didn't know and didn't dare to know the secrets of this kind of aristocratic family, so he didn't say a word after finishing this matter. After he came back, he didn't talk to the Huguo Gongfu except to report to the Huguo Gongfu. The public house has come and gone, and this is how I will make a great success in the future.

She seemed to believe what he said, and withdrew the sword pointing at his neck: "Let me let you go today, if you have half a lie?!" When she said this, her tone became heavy, and she let out a stern 'hum'.

The frightened Guo Chao shook his body, and immediately said: "I don't dare, please ask the heroine to look into it!"

After finishing speaking, he waited for a long time without hearing anyone answer, looked up, there was no one in the room, it was really coming and going like the wind.

He ruthlessly fell to the ground, only to feel that all the strength in his body was sucked out at this moment. Originally, the injury on his body was caused by his overthinking, and he never recovered. It's heavy.

As soon as she left the room, she saw the person with the steel knife waiting outside, she said in a low voice: "This is not a place to talk!" Then she flew out with lightness kung fu, and the person immediately followed behind her.

The two of them are Mu Niangui and Yingqi!
Ying Qi has been investigating Guo Chao's background during this period, but found that his background is very clean and clear, and he has no close contacts with any family on weekdays. If the prince hadn't deduced based on the seized evidence, he might be doing it for him. The Duke Protector's Mansion really hides things deeply enough for people not to see them.

Tonight, Yingqi came to monitor Guo Chao as usual. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he saw a man with a long sword sneaking into Guo Chao's room. He drew out the long sword and wanted to kill him. How could this be possible!

Although I really don't want to save him, but the matter has not been clarified yet, if he is killed in front of my eyes like this, the prince will not have skinned me when I go back!

So he immediately stepped forward to stop her, and after a few moves, he found that this person was Mu Niangui, who was rescued by the princess at the beginning. His eyes turned and he thought about it, so when he took her move, he whispered: "Miss, can you return?" Do you remember the old friend of Hongye Temple?"

When she heard it, the movements of her hands were indeed a little slower, and she asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"

Ying Qiyi heard something interesting, and immediately said: "I'm from Duan Wangfu, you can't kill this person for the time being!"

As soon as she heard that Ying Qi wanted to stop herself from taking revenge, she moved her hands a little harder. Before Ying Qi finished speaking, she saw that her actions were even more ruthless than before. Knowing that she had misunderstood, she quickly continued: " The girl misunderstood! I am not trying to save him, but he is just an accomplice in your father's case, and the culprit is someone else!"

Nian Gui paused when he heard this, and asked in a low voice: "What do you mean by that?" Seeing her stop, Ying Qi let out a sigh of relief, if he continued to fight, he would be overwhelmed!

Glancing at Guo Chao on the bed, he said: "It's a long story, please tell the girl outside with me!" Niangui nodded and left the room with him.

Ying Qi told her all the results of these days of investigation, and also told her about Xia Zhi's conjecture, and added a sentence at the end: "If the girl kills the wrong enemy today, let the real murderer go free. How can I deal with my parents under Nine Springs!"

Nian Gui listened to it for a long time without saying a word, and after a long time, he opened his mouth and said: "You said it too, this is just your lord's guess, how can it be true!"

Knowing that she was shaken, Ying Qi said, "It's actually very simple to know if it's true!"

Nian Gui looked at him with doubts on his face, and Ying Qi looked like a mountain man who had his own tricks.

So there was the scene just now.

After leaving the Guo Mansion, Ying Qi saw her ugly face, knowing that she had just learned the truth, her heart was hard to calm down, no one would be at peace now knowing that the enemy he has hated for so many years is actually someone else.

But what should be done is still to be done, so he said: "What are your plans, girl!"

Gritting his teeth, Nian Gui said, "Of course it's revenge!"

This was an answer that did not surprise him, and he continued: "Young lady is alone, how can she touch the Duke Huguo's mansion at all, isn't it like a mantis' arm is a car!" This is a bit ugly, but it is true.

"Even if your body is smashed to pieces!" Nian Gui said firmly.

"My lord just happens to want to move the Duke Hu's mansion. If the girl is willing to conspire, she can come to the palace at any time. It just so happens that our princess is still talking about the girl!" After speaking, she knew that she would not answer immediately, so she turned and left first. up!

Niangui stood there for a long time, until the cold dew wet her clothes, a gust of cold wind blew by, she shivered suddenly and then woke up, and left this deserted alley, if she went back too late It's not good to be discovered by Fan Xuan!
