Knowing that Xie Yan was pretending to be pitiful, Gu Ning was still willing to be fooled.

She gradually let go of her mouth, her beautiful eyes widened: "Since you know that I will be angry, why do you still do this?"

Xie Yan's eyes were dim, and his eyes stayed on the top of Gu Ning's head.

"Ning'er, I want to be with you for a long time." Xie Yan sighed softly.

Although Xie Yan didn't say it clearly, Gu Ning has already noticed something strange from his state.

Gu Ning pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but finally returned to calm.

She knew that Xie Yan was worried that one day she would leave without saying goodbye.

At this time, Xie Yan's grip on Gu Ning increased, his eyes were always locked on Gu Ning: "Ning'er, you will not leave me, will you?"

Gu Ning heard the cautiousness in his words, so he snorted softly.

"That might not be the case."

However, just after Gu Ning finished speaking, Xie Yan's dark eyes became extremely serious.

"I'm joking with you!" Gu Ning let out a pain, glaring at Xie Yan who was leaving her lips, "How could I leave you? But if you make me angry again, then I'm not sure!"

"I know."

Xie Yan murmured, looking at Gu Ning with extremely affectionate eyes.

The reason why he conquered the Huns himself was to be able to stay with Gu Ning for a long time.

Only by completely resolving the internal conflicts in Chu State and getting rid of the people hiding in the dark, can he and Gu Ning be together for a long time.

Thinking of this, Xie Yan's eyes darkened.

And Gu Ning leaned in his arms, and suddenly said: "You said, will those assassins do it today?"

It was no secret that Xie Yan was in Yuezhou. Since those people wanted to make a move, they should find the right opportunity. After all, they left Yuezhou and marched all the way. Unless their people wanted to die in vain, they would never make a move.

Xie Yan lowered her eyes, staring at Gu Ning's flawless face like jade.

"They should be able to do it." Xie Yan whispered, "I will let Yue Rong take you away."

Unexpectedly, Gu Ning shook her head, she was sitting on Xie Yan's lap, holding Xie Yan's neck tightly with both hands, refusing to take a step away from Xie Yan.

"No." Gu Ning said angrily, "Since you are fully prepared, why do you want me to leave? I don't agree! Don't try to get rid of me!"

"If you make me angry again, we'll break it off once we return to the capital!"

"You are not the only one who looks good in this world! I have heard that beauties come out of the south of the Yangtze River, and even men are far more handsome than men in other places."

Although he knew that Gu Ning was using aggressive methods, Xie Yan's eyes inevitably became cold.

Outside the room, Yue Rong was standing at the gate of the courtyard. He was two feet away from the gate with experience, while Yue Ming was guarding the gate of the courtyard, refusing to leave a step.

Chunyu squatted on the roof, and glanced at the two of them with cold eyes.

Yue Rong was very upset by her look: "Brother! It's fine if she looks down on me, why should I look down on you? Your kung fu is..."

"Chunyu and we were trained together." Yue Ming interrupted Yue Rong, "You know her skills better than I do."

Whether it is martial arts or spying on intelligence, Chunyu is the most powerful among their group of hidden guards, otherwise, she would not have been sent to Gu Ning by the Eldest Princess.

Yue Rong rolled his eyes: "You're making someone else want you!"

"Okay." Yue Ming drew his sword out of its sheath, and slammed the hilt on Yue Rong's head fiercely, "Is it time to talk about this tonight? Don't forget, there are still a group of people secretly watching!"

Hearing this, Yue Rong's face became ugly.

At the same time, Chunyu also jumped down from the roof, her words were very brief: "Someone is here."

In an instant, dozens of men in black quickly approached the courtyard in the darkness.

They came menacingly, stepped on the wall and jumped down, the cold light on the tip of the knife looked murderous under the moonlight.

The candlelight and silhouettes in the bedroom allowed them to find their target immediately.

"Kill the traitor!"

The leading man's voice was hoarse. After saying this, he rushed towards the bedroom first.

However, as soon as he reached the door, the door was pushed open by a strong internal force. He couldn't dodge it in time, and the door fell to the gate of the courtyard with him.

He looked at the man standing inside the room in disbelief.

"It's...it's so strong!"

Before he could think about it, a sword had already pierced his neck, cutting off his last breath.

Yue Ming came out from the gate of the courtyard, holding a sword in his hand.

Yue Rong and Chunyu walked strangely, they were almost invisible in the night, and in the blink of an eye, they had already arrived at Xie Yan's side.

Obviously there were only four people in this yard, but the dozens of people in black who were surrounded in the middle smelled a dangerous atmosphere.

"Kill the traitor!"

Following a voice, dozens of men in black stared at Xie Yan with red eyes.

And Xie Yan looked indifferent, looking at them like looking at ants.

"Kill the traitor! Take revenge for His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Everyone seemed to be convincing themselves, and desperately chopped at Xie Yan.

Their offensive is fierce, but in Xie Yan's view, there are loopholes everywhere.

Xie Yan took half a step back, Chunyu immediately stepped forward, and as soon as the two swords came out, they blocked the sword of an assassin who had rushed to the front.

At the same time, Yue Rong and Yue Ming also rushed over quickly, only three of them were able to block their fierce attack.

Suddenly, an assassin caught sight of Gu Ning sitting in the bedroom.

Under the dim candlelight, Gu Ning was thrillingly beautiful.

He didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly moved towards Gu Ning.

As long as one of the weakest of these people is caught, there will be plenty of opportunities to kill Xie Yan!

With that in his mind, he acted without hesitation.

But before he got close to the door, a sword pierced his chest.

Xie Yan quickly withdrew his sword, avoiding the blood spattered on his body.

"Let's do it." Xie Yan said coldly, "Leave a few alive."

When the assassins were restless, a group of men in armor descended from the sky.

Dozens of assassins are no match for the soldiers at all.

In just a quarter of an hour, their entire army was wiped out, and the small courtyard was also stained red with blood.

Xie Yan crossed the river of blood on the ground and walked slowly into the house. He stretched out his hand towards Gu Ning: "Ning'er, the smell of blood here is too strong, let's move to another place."

Gu Ning is not like an ordinary lady, she just glanced at the small courtyard where the blood flowed into the river, and then looked away calmly, Xie Yan hugged her horizontally, and never let her be stained with a little blood.

At the same time, in a remote house in Yuezhou City.

Ouyang Wen stared at the General's Mansion in the north of the city with a cold face.

"Why is there still no movement?"

If Xie Yan died, Yuezhou City would never be so quiet!
