The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

A small house in the middle of the lake.

Two handsome men were playing chess against the wind, with a gentle breeze blowing. One was wearing a blue shirt, the other a white shirt.

Blending among the green water, green mountains and white clouds, it is sparkling, with birds singing and flowers blooming.

As he chuckled and talked, his blue shirt was free and easy, and his white clothes were warm, like a picture as clear as ink and a handsome man as beautiful as a painting.

No wonder most of the noble women in Fengyao don't want to marry royal descendants.

Instead, they are these two men who are known as the two heroes of Fengyao, Gu Jingxuan and Qi Tianchen.

"Haha...Brother Jingxuan, you lose..."

Qi Tianchen looked at Gu Jingxuan with a smile.

"Hahaha... I won't play anymore, I won't play anymore, Brother Tianchen, this is Jingxuan's chess skill.

How dare I even dream of winning a single chess piece from Brother Tianchen?

Every time I just hope that I don’t lose too badly. ”

Gu Jingxuan had a relaxed look on his face, and he looked free and open-minded. Even though he lost, he still felt extremely happy.

"Next round..."

Qi Tianchen lowered his head, smiled and said.

The slender fingers sorted the black and white chess pieces on the white jade chessboard.

Gu Jingxuan leaned back casually, narrowed his almond-shaped eyes, waved his hand, and said knowingly: "Brother Tianchen, if you have something to say, just say it."

He finally realized that in the past, he had to pester this guy before he would reluctantly agree to play with him.

But today, not only did he offer to play chess with me, he also deliberately let me win so that I didn't lose too badly.

Even though his thoughts were exposed, Qi Tianchen did not feel embarrassed at all and covered the chessboard.

I looked at Gu Jingxuan with a smile and said, "Since Brother Jingxuan asked, I will just tell you directly."

Gu Jingxuan rolled his eyes, huh!

It's as if you wouldn't tell me if I didn't ask.

Qi Tianchen didn't care about Gu Jingxuan's attitude and asked, "Brother Jingxuan, how did you investigate the incident at Yingfeng Tower that day?

Is the assassin really targeting Mr. Suxu or Princess Liuyang?"

Gu Jingxuan sat up straight and looked straight at Qi Tianchen, as if trying to read from his face his intention of suddenly asking about this matter.

After a long time, there was nothing on Qi Tianchen's face except pure curiosity and confusion.

"Brother Tianchen, why do you say that? Do you know something?"

Qi Tianchen shook his head, his expression solemn:

"No! I just had a hunch that the assassin wasn't going after Mr. Su Xu.

But I don’t understand, if not, why would Mr. Su Xu say that?

That's why I thought of asking you if you have any clues."

Gu Jingxuan sighed softly: "No... The short arrows used by the assassin are very ordinary, and there is nothing special about his clothes.

Just a little bit, there is a crescent shape on the wrist, like some kind of icon."

"That fatal blow between the eyebrows wasn't done by Prince Sheng, right?"

Qi Tianchen's sudden judgment made Gu Jingxuan look at him in surprise.

Qi Tianchen shrugged: "I guessed it, it turned out to be true!

Although I don't know Prince Sheng, but based on his skills.

If you wanted to kill the assassin, you could just use the Nether Blade in one strike. Why would you cut off his legs first and then strike him directly between his eyebrows?"

Gu Jingxuan said admiringly: "Brother Tianchen, you are indeed thoughtful.

Brother Chen, why don't you guess who shot the knife that day?"

Qi Tianchen looked embarrassed. He didn't know martial arts. It was impossible for him to consider it from any angle or direction.

The scene was extremely chaotic at the time, and all attention was on the man who fell from the sky.

There are so many people who are hiding their true abilities that he naturally did not notice who shot the knife.

"Brother Jingxuan, do you know..."

"Son..."

A deep male voice sounded outside the house, and Qi Tianchen stopped talking and wanted to ask something.

"Come in…"

A man in black came in. He saw Gu Jingxuan sitting beside him and nodded, "Mr. Gu."

Gu Jingxuan responded: "Oh, Qi Shi..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Jingxuan quickly jumped out from the chair, clenched his fists and hit Qi Shi directly.

Qi Shi did not hesitate, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he quickly raised his hand to receive the attack.

Although Gu Jingxuan is from a military family, he has the unruly and free-spirited nature of a man of the world.

Although he was in the right wing camp, he often discussed with his subordinates.

But how could the battle with Qi Shi be so exhilarating?

It was extremely enjoyable at that time.

Although Qi Shi is Qi Tianchen's close guard, he is not a dull person who is obsessed with etiquette.

On the contrary, he is a martial arts fanatic. Apart from his master's orders, his greatest pleasure in life is to compete with people with great martial arts skills.

The two men moved faster and faster, and strong winds blew up, blowing up leaves.

The two figures sometimes separate and sometimes come together. Qi Tianchen is extremely talented, but he is powerless.

It means that I can't see clearly the movements of the two people.

But one can also feel the tacit understanding between the two, and a sense of mutual appreciation.

Neither of them used any weapons, they just fought each other with bare hands.

It made people feel even more excited, and the two fought for nearly an incense stick of time.

Finally, he struck with both hands, then quickly withdrew his hands, and both of them spun back a few steps.

"Hahaha...so cool! Qi Shi, I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to have improved a lot."

It can be seen that Gu Jingxuan still feels a little unsatisfied.

He hugged Qi Shi and walked into the house together.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu..."

Qi Shi, who had just finished the competition, had an unstable aura and didn't say much.

Gu Jingxuan didn't care. He was not good at speaking and would never say a word unless it was necessary.

Both of them were sweating and their faces were flushed.

Qi Tianchen poured two cups of tea and handed them to the two people.

Gu Jingxuan reached out to take the teacup, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

"Thank you, sir..." After Qi Shi finished drinking the tea, he told Qi Tianchen the news he had heard.

"You mean... the Empress Dowager asked the Emperor for an order to confer the title of Princess Mingnuo on Miss Leng?"

Qi Tianchen was stunned and looked at Gu Jingxuan.

They all saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Gu Jingxuan coughed lightly, as if he couldn't believe it, and emphasized again:

"Qi Shi, according to what you said, the Queen Mother only met Miss Leng once and then asked the Emperor for an imperial decree to confer the title on her?"

Almost everyone had the same reaction to the news, full of shock and confusion.

"Brother Tianchen, what do you think about this matter?"

When it comes to understanding people's hearts, he trusts Qi Tianchen more.

Qi Tianchen walked to the wooden window. The view of this small building in the middle of the lake was indeed charming and elegant. It might not be an exaggeration to call it a paradise on earth.

The white clouds in the sky look like brocade and cotton, and the fluorescent dots in the lake look like the moon and stars.

The green willows are soft and gentle, the rocks are changeable, and the breeze brings wisps of fragrance, which makes people intoxicated.

Occasionally, a lost egret is seen flying over the lake, creating ripples that break the calm surface and awaken the lazy water lilies.

Qi Tianchen seemed to be thinking about something, and murmured to himself:

"What kind of waves will that lost woman bring to this seemingly peaceful world?"
