Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Therefore, after Jin Zi left, Gu Qiongsi was only sad for a short period of time and then he began to arrange the assassination of Hu Er.

She definitely had no one available, so she thought of Cao Xingwen and the guard who came back with her.

Although it was already dark, she still wore a veil and went to Prince An's Mansion to meet Cao Xingwen.

"This, this matter, I can't make the decision." Cao Xingwen said with some embarrassment.

After all, it involves assassination. How could a small strategist like him have the authority to do such a thing?

When Gu Qiongsi heard him say this, he turned his gaze to the housekeeper, but the housekeeper waved his hands again and again, "Little one, little one can't make the decision."

"You can't make the decision on a few people, so lend me two people. Just pretend that you don't know what I'm going to do. I believe that His Royal Highness Prince An will not blame you when he comes back."

Gu Qiongsi had to settle for the second best and take on all the responsibilities himself.

Cao Xingwen asked worriedly, "Gu, Master Qingzhu, Hu Er is targeted by Yan Nangui of the Dali Temple. Do you really think we should take action now?"

Gu Qiongsi's eyes flickered slightly. Cao Xingwen didn't know the secret between them, so naturally he couldn't weigh whether he should take action. If His Royal Highness Prince An was here, he would definitely take action without hesitation.

"I will bear all the consequences, you don't have to worry."

Gu Qiongsi still said the same thing as before. The butler and Cao Xingwen both knew that her relationship with His Royal Highness Prince An had changed, so they spoke with a little more caution. Seeing that she insisted on doing so, the butler finally nodded in agreement.

"Okay, the only people that can be sent out from the palace right now are three people with good kung fu skills. Let them go with Master Qingzhu in a while."

Gu Qiongsi bowed to them and thanked them, then took the three of them back to Yipinxiang.

Xie Cheng'an was in his little room, but he couldn't muster the slightest interest in the beauty in his arms.

There was a certain part in particular where there was no movement at all.

He hugged Xi Cui, looked at her shy face, and sighed in his heart.

"Xiao Cui, I'm not in the mood today and there are people living in the outer room. Let's do it another day." Xie Cheng'an frowned and sat up.

Xi Cui had already softened in Xie Cheng'an's arms. Now she suddenly heard him say this, and she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. But she said, "Okay, I'll do as my husband says."

Xie Cheng'an was sighing in his heart that Xi Cui was also a considerate person, and he hugged her arms a little tighter.

In fact, in the past two days, he has had some bad doubts in his heart. It seems that his body has produced side effects after using "Beauty Smile" several times. Now there is no movement at all without taking any medicine.

I don’t know if it’s the side effect of “Beauty Smile”, or if there’s something wrong with my body, or if the blow I’ve suffered recently is too great?

Just as he was daydreaming, a very small sound suddenly came from outside the yard, which sounded very clear in the quiet night.

Xie Cheng'an was startled and got out of bed, but before he could take two steps, the door of the cottage was easily opened by someone from the outside.

Xi Cui heard the noise behind him and was so scared that she quickly wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and hid behind Xie Cheng'an, trembling.

Hu Er had been nervous for the past two days and had fallen into a deep sleep. When he heard the noise, he sat up immediately.

Unfortunately, they were no match for those guards. Before they could even react, someone came at them in the dark and hacked at them.

"Ah, help..." Xi Cui was so scared that she screamed and shouted immediately.

She usually doesn't talk much, but she didn't expect that her voice would be so penetrating that all the neighbors must have heard it.

Qian and Nanny Li also came out from another room, and the housekeeper and Shuangrui quickly ran out with brooms.

Hu Er knew that these people were coming for him, so he didn't even bother to put on his shoes and ran out of the house, thinking that if he could get to where there were many people as soon as possible, they would definitely not dare to attack him.

Unfortunately, he was still a step too slow and was severely stabbed on the back. The pain made his legs go limp and he fell to the ground.

However, the other people did not understand what was going on. When they saw someone breaking in, Shuangrui and the housekeeper rushed up without caring and started fighting with the three people.

Qian thought that those people were here to harm her son, and she yelled at the top of her lungs, "Help! Someone's killing me..."

After hearing her words, the neighbors all stood up and walked out to look around.

At this time, Nanny Li also held Xie Rui and opened the gate of the courtyard, thinking of asking the neighbors to come in to help.

But her actions attracted the attention of a man in black, who naturally wanted to stop Nanny Li from opening the gate, and reached out to chop her.

Hu Er, who was lying on the ground, saw this situation and didn't care that someone was hacking at him. He struggled to get up and protected Li Ma and Xie Rui behind him.

Just as the knife was about to hit Hu Er and the others, two more men in black suddenly appeared on the roof. They were not with the previous three, and they took action to stop the actions of the three men in black.

Then they also jumped into the yard and started fighting with each other immediately.

Xie Cheng'an and Qian were also stunned. They didn't understand what was going on. They were so scared that they hid in the corner and dared not move.

Hu Er reacted quickly. When he saw someone coming to help, he quickly opened the gate and ran out.

No matter who these two groups of people belong to, the safest thing to do is to run away as quickly as possible.

He thought he wouldn't be discovered if he hid here with Xie Cheng'an, but he didn't expect that this was a mistake and he was discovered so quickly.

However, his wishful thinking was wrong after all. After running only a few steps, his way was blocked by someone.

The person who came was Yan Nangui, the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple, who brought with him a dozen guards.

Seeing Hu Er running away, he didn't care about anything and just pressed him to the ground.

Then they entered the yard again, and after a while, it became completely quiet.

When Hu Er was brought in, torches had already been lit in the yard, illuminating every corner.

Also captured together with Hu Er were the three men in black who had just come in to assassinate Hu Er, while the man in black who had just helped had disappeared.

Hu Er immediately realized the problem. This time he had truly fallen into Yan Nangui's hands.
