Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Yan Ci would never admit that he couldn't stand the pain because he was used to a good life.

Xie Chengyin was stunned for a moment, and then he heard a low shout from inside the room: "Who is it! Someone come here!"

He immediately rushed towards Yan Ci. Since they had a common enemy, they were allies and he had to escape first.

Yan Ci was suddenly hugged around the waist. She was so busy shouting in pain that she didn't even have time to struggle before she was carried to the roof.

what's the situation?

She stretched her head to look down and felt dizzy and almost fell down. Fortunately, she grabbed the people around her in time and escaped.

Xie Chengyin looked at the reaction of the man in black and felt an indescribable sense of familiarity in his heart.

But now they have been discovered by Xiao Chengzhang and someone will be chasing them soon, so they must leave quickly.

"Let's go!" He hugged Yan Ci and was about to jump up again, but was grabbed by Yan Ci.

"You dare to fly around during curfew, aren't you afraid of being seen by the people from the Imperial City Bureau?"

Xie Chengyin looked at the person with his face covered and only a pair of eyes exposed. Those round, black eyes were like two stars, very beautiful and bright.

"What do you have in mind?" Xie Chengyin lowered his voice and asked Yan Ci.

"Go there, there's a path out there."

Following the direction Yan Ci pointed, that is the northeast corner, there are dense bushes, so it is not easy to be discovered.

He immediately picked up Yan Ci and dropped down from the other side of the roof, then quickly ran towards the northeast corner along the wall.

A dog lying on the grass startled Xie Chengyin. He was afraid that the dog would bark and attract people, so he raised his hand to kill it, but Yan Ci pulled him back, "What are you doing? It's not barking."

Only then did Xie Chengyin realize that the dog did not bark at all. It was lying there sleeping soundly and did not wake up even when someone came.

This dog is too unvigilant.

Dog: I was drugged, okay.

As Yan Ci pulled away the weeds in the corner of the courtyard wall, a three-foot square hole was revealed.

Xie Chengyin's forehead jumped: "Is this your method, crawling through a dog hole? You didn't get in this way as well, did you?"

Yan Ci had a look of course on his face, but he was actually complaining inside, thinking that everyone thought she was as skilled in martial arts as him and could climb walls and fly over rooftops. She was just a weak woman.

Yan Ci lay down without saying a word and went towards the dog hole. In just a moment, he was outside the yard.

Xie Chengyin stared at the dog hole blankly, with an indescribable expression on his face.

Do you really want to dig a dog hole?

If people knew that Xie Xiaohou crawled through a dog hole, they would laugh at him to death.

Seeing Xie Chengyin not moving, Yan Ci became anxious, and said in a low and urgent voice: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up, it's already this time, and you still care about a dog hole. Is your life more important or your face?"

Xie Chengyin thought to himself: Equally important.

Moreover, it was just a minor incident. Even if people from the Prime Minister's Office came to arrest him, they might not be able to catch him, let alone his life.

Although you won’t be caught, it doesn’t mean you won’t be exposed.

The situation is unclear now, and if he rashly exposes himself, it will be even more difficult to take action against Xiao Chengzhang in the future.

After taking a look at Yan Ci, who was also covered with a black scarf and whose appearance could not be seen, Xie Chengyin's last worry disappeared.

No one knows each other, and they will go their separate ways after leaving here. Who would know that he crawled through a dog hole?

He immediately lay on the ground and quickly crawled out of the dog hole.

The two men stood outside the courtyard wall and could faintly hear the noisy sounds inside the prime minister's mansion. The private guards hired by Xiao Chengzhang and the servants began to search the yard for Xie Chengyin and Yan Ci, the two men in black.

Yan Ci looked at Xie Chengyin and said, "Thank you for today, but I also helped you just now, so we are even now."

Xie Chengyin clicked his tongue, this guy really knows how to do business, he saved her life, but she took him through a dog hole, these two completely different situations, yet she had the audacity to say that they were even.

Yan Ci couldn't see Xie Chengyin's expression because of the scarf covering his face. She only saw him glance at her with disdain. Then she heard him say, "Just consider it a good deed I did. Hurry up and leave. I won't save you if you get caught."

After saying this, Xie Chengyin turned around and left. Yan Ci was given a cold back. Although he was unhappy about being despised, at least he escaped successfully.

She hasn't found out anything yet. If she gets caught or loses her life, what's the point of her living again?

She secretly reminded herself not to play such a good hand badly, otherwise she would be letting down the kindness of heaven and give her a chance to start over.

Walking back along the same path, the petite figure blended into the night and soon disappeared.

After returning to Liufangyuan, Yan Ci changed her clothes and then checked her wound. Fortunately, the wound was not serious and she was not poisoned, otherwise she would not have been able to come back.

Although her wound was minor, it still needed to be cleaned and bandaged. She couldn't openly ask a doctor for help, so she could only use some wine and gauze to simply treat and bandage it.

She did not disturb Chunzhi. She poured herself a small bowl of wine, wiped the wound with gauze, wrapped it with gauze, and then packed up and went to rest.

After returning to the Yongding Marquis' Mansion, Xie Chengyin went straight back to rest. His brother Xie Chengyi was on duty in the military camp and was not at home, so Xie Chengyin did not have to worry about being questioned when he came back in his night clothes in the middle of the night.

The only person who couldn't sleep at night was Prime Minister Xiao. He sat on the edge of the bed, his brows tightly furrowed, still feeling frightened.

He was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened by the triggering of the mechanism at the door. The servants of the prime minister's mansion would not enter his bedroom without his permission. In the middle of the night, he immediately thought of the assassination.

But many people were sent out, but no one found the assassin's trace, and he didn't dare to sleep anymore.

Knowing that someone was staring at him from somewhere he didn't know, his scalp went numb and he couldn't sleep.

But who could it be?

Xiao Chengzhang went over his political enemies and everything he had done recently in his mind, and finally focused on a few people who had some conflicts of interest with him.

Why do we take action at this time?

Oh yes, he remembered that during the daytime at court, His Majesty had already agreed to King Xiang's request to marry his eldest daughter, so the assassin that night was most likely because of this, because the people behind him did not want him to join forces with King Xiang.

After thinking through the reasons, Xiao Chengzhang finally felt relieved. How could he, the prime minister, be killed so easily? The people behind him would probably be disappointed.

After the failure of the first attempt, Xie Chengyin did not try a second time. After all, he had already alerted the enemy. With Xiao Chengzhang's cautious nature, he must have set a trap. Going again would be tantamount to walking into a trap.

Although the assassination failed, Xie Chengyin was not without gain. At least he found out that there were other people who had a grudge against Xiao Chengzhang just like him.

Recalling the events of that day and night, although he felt a little upset that the operation had failed because of the other man in black, he remembered the man's soft waist when he jumped off the roof while holding him.

It's a woman.
