After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

King Ying took one look, his face darkened, and he pulled Liu Yunxiang and ran into the alley.

"You are my king's nemesis!"

"How dare you bet that this man is here to kill you, not me!"

"Are you still talking nonsense?"

"I'm trying to reason with you!"

King Ying was so weak that he couldn't run fast. Seeing the man in black turning into the alley, Liu Yunxiang gritted his teeth and pushed him into the darkness.

"Hurry and hide, I won't be able to escape with you!"

"You want to..."

"I saved you, just remember to repay the favor of saving your life."

After saying that, Liu Yunxiang ran forward as hard as he could. In the dim night, the man in black could not see clearly. He could only see a vague figure, and could not tell whether it was one person or two people.

The man in black chased after him, getting closer and closer.

Liu Yunxiang gritted his teeth, picked up the straw from the pile of firewood next to him, threw it behind him, and then took the opportunity to run away again.

Just when I turned around while running, I found the man in black standing motionless in the distance.

She hesitated and stopped, but the man in black had already turned around and walked back.

This killer has quite a professional ethic and only kills those who deserve to be killed, not innocents. It's just that the King of England is in the dark. As long as the man in black looks for it, he will be found soon.

Liu Yunxiang thought for a moment and ran towards the man in black.

"How much money does your patron give you, and I can give you double that, is that okay?"

Because of these words, the man in black stopped and turned to look at her. Because the man in black was wearing a veil, she couldn't see his face, but she could only see his eyes curled up with a smile.

What is he laughing at? Laughing at her naivety?

Liu Yunxiang coughed dryly, "Don't you killers kill people just for money? You will listen to whoever gives you more money. This is the smart person!"

"You're right." The man in black said.

This voice... sounds familiar.

"You are……"

The man in black took off his veil, and surprisingly it was Ruan Lingyu.

Liu Yunxiang blinked, "Anhong wants to kill the King of England?"

She thought it was Han Lin. After all, Leng Yuxie was looking for evidence of collusion between Xie Shengmao and Han Lin. He had a good reason to kill him.

But An Hong, aren't Anguo's Mansion and Wuwei General's Mansion mortal enemies? It doesn't make sense!

"I know what you are thinking. There is no need for eternal enemies in partisanship. There are only common interests. Killing the King of England will eliminate a major stumbling block for the Duke Anguo's government, and he can also shirk it to General Wuwei's government, killing two birds with one stone." Ruan Lingyu said.

Liu Yunxiang thought about it, it was true!

Perhaps it was because Ruan Lingyu was from Darong and had been a staunch soldier in the Northern Expedition. Liu Yunxiang was not afraid of him and even took a few steps closer to him.

"After all, we are fellow villagers, so you didn't kill me, right?"

Ruan Lingyu laughed again, "They didn't give me the money to kill you, so why should I bother to kill you, not to mention getting into unnecessary trouble."

"Then what I just said, will you consider it?"

Ruan Lingyu was silent for a moment, "1 taels."

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips and said, "You are quite expensive."

"Ha, after all, I am killing the King of England."

"I'll give you 2 taels."

Ruan Lingyu nodded and stretched out his hand towards Liu Yunxiang.

"I don't have that much money with me anymore. I'll give it to you when I get back to Jin'an."

"Oh, you want to pay on credit?"

"Fellow, you're still worried that I won't lie to you."

Ruan Lingyu thought for a while and then said: "An Hong also offered 2000 taels and asked me to kill Yan Mu."

"2000 taels?" Liu Yunxiang snorted, "Why is it so cheap!"

"If you want to give more, I will take over."

"No, 4000 taels, I owe you."

Ruan Lingyu nodded, "Don't be wronged. I can't go back and explain to An Hong."

Liu Yunxiang's thoughts changed, "How about you follow me? I'm much richer than Anhong."

Ruan Lingyu tilted his head and thought for a while, "That's okay, anyway, I only care about money."

Liu Yunxiang gave a thumbs up, "Your advantage of only recognizing money but not people is very good, I like it."

Just as he sent Ruan Lingyu away, Leng Yuxie ran over with weak hands and feet.

Seeing that she was okay, he looked relieved.

"You are still alive!"

"Shut up if you can't speak!"

Liu Yunxiang stepped forward to support Leng Yuxie, "Why are you still so hot? Let's go, I'll take you back and continue taking a cold bath."

"What about the assassin?"

"He saw that I was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to do anything to me, so he left."

Leng Yuxie curled his lips, "Why do I not believe it so much?"

"So many incredible things happened tonight..."

"To shut up!"

After a little rest in Yuzhou, Liu Yunxiang continued northward. After walking for more than ten days, we finally entered the city gate before nightfall.

She had been traveling day and night these past few days, and she was eager to return home. She just wanted to see Yan Mu as soon as possible.

When she walked towards Jingchuan Garden, she saw firelight in that direction from a distance. She didn't pay much attention to it, but when she got closer, she heard the people talking.

"It is said that His Highness the Seventh Prince of Da Rong did not escape and is still in the fire scene!"

"Ouch, there's no way you can escape from such a big fire!"

"It's quite pitiful to say that he died in a foreign country like this."

Hearing this, Liu Yunxiang's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly rode towards Jingchuan Garden.

Jingchuan Garden was already on fire, with raging fire rising into the sky.

The people nearby were pouring water and trying to put out the fire, probably because they were afraid of burning their own homes. However, no one from the government came to see such a big fire.

Liu Yunxiang forced herself to calm down. She looked around and didn't see Yan Mu, let alone the beggars. She only saw Chongming standing in front of him blankly.

She hurriedly ran over and grabbed Chongming, "Where is Yan Mu?"

Chongming was overjoyed when he saw her, and then quickly pointed at Jingchuan Garden, "It's burning. Our home is going to be burned down."

"Let me ask you, where is Yan Mu?" Liu Yunxiang was a little anxious.

"Yan Mu?" Chongming suddenly flashed his big eyes and looked confused.

"That's your master!"

"Oh." Chongming understood clearly and pointed inside, "He is sick and lying in the house."

Liu Yunxiang looked at the gate of Jingchuan Garden. The door had fallen down and was on fire. Thinking that Yan Mu was still inside, she didn't care about anything, gritted her teeth and rushed in.

There were fires everywhere in the yard. Liu Yunxiang ran to the backyard to avoid it, and saw the beggar, Zijin and Hongzhu being entangled by the man in black and unable to get away for a while.

Hibiscus was injured and was lying on the ground clutching her chest.

Liu Yunxiang looked around but still didn't see Yan Mu, so he ran to Mu Jin and asked, "Where is Yan Mu?"

When Mu Jin saw her, tears fell down and she said in a trembling voice: "In the house... the master was seriously injured on the way back to Beijing... is recovering from illness... someone deliberately set a fire... and stopped us from going in to save people... "

Liu Yunxiang looked over and saw that the beams fell down and half of the house collapsed.

"Master!" Hibiscus shouted sadly.

Liu Yunxiang did not hesitate. After confirming that Yan Mu was inside, he took off his outer clothes, wetted them in the pond in the courtyard, then put them on his body and rushed in.

The waves of fire were scorching, and she ran into the sea of ​​fire without any hesitation.
