Lin Xilan sneered at the assassin sent by the Shadow Pavilion.

"Capture him alive!"

When Lin Xilan asked Qiuyue to buy her head, she knew that Shadow Pavilion would definitely accept it!

It doesn't make sense to answer it last time and not this time.

Right?

Since Jiang Mingzhu is targeting her through the Shadow Pavilion, she must use this as a breakthrough point to find evidence!

otherwise.

Wouldn't that leave Princess Mingzhu a chance to survive?

——She will never give her enemy another chance to hurt her!

The secret guards who were originally hiding in the dark suddenly rushed out. This time, to be on the safe side, Lin Xilan found a lot of secret guards to follow him.

No matter how powerful the assassins of Shadow Pavilion are, they will inevitably be defeated in the face of these!

"What a trick, princess!"

The killer chuckled. Looking at the secret guards who surrounded him, he realized how difficult this journey would be.

The secret guards were like ghosts in the night, silently surrounding the killer.

Although the killer was highly skilled in martial arts, he was eventually defeated and captured alive after a fierce fight due to the impeccable cooperation of the secret guards.

Lin Xilan chuckled in the moonlight and asked someone to tie him up carefully. Then he asked the secret guards to retreat one by one, and he walked to the man leisurely and casually.

She showed the other party the receipt for the money from the Shadow Pavilion in her hand.

The killer finally realized that he had fallen into a trap!

"Princess Regent, you are so cunning!"

"Hehe, how...how can I be better than you?"

She spoke each word in a low voice with a hint of coldness.

"Right, Mr. Xiao?"

Lin Xilan stretched out her hand lightly, touched the edge of the mask on the killer's face with her fingertips, and immediately pulled off the mysterious veil on the killer's face.

The moonlight penetrated the night sky, illuminating the darkness around it.

Xiao Wuchen's true face suddenly appeared.

Not to mention...

Under the mask is a handsome face.

The man's facial features seemed to be carefully carved by God, and every line appeared so harmonious and perfect.

He has deep eyes, a high nose bridge, thin lips, and delicate and smooth skin...

Mr. Xiao...

Xiao Wuchen.

He really is the killer from Shadow Pavilion.

This was the first time Lin Xilan saw Xiao Wuchen without a mask!

She watched Xiao Wuchen's eyes change from calm to shocked and dark under the moonlight, so she patted him on the shoulder very good-naturedly.

"Brother Xiao, why are you so surprised? Your acting skills are very good, but there are too many loopholes in what you did. How could I not guess it!"

"Don't act rashly! You know, I brought a lot of secret guards with me just in case.

"Besides, I am the closest to you right now. I know martial arts, you know."

"No matter how fast your men are, they can't be faster than my dagger and poison!"

She smiled half-heartedly.

The dagger in his hand has been unsheathed!

She had already noticed something was wrong - she fell off a cliff and died, so it was normal for her to be rescued by someone, so why did it have to be Xiao Wuchen?

and.

Why not earlier or later? Right after she fell off the cliff, Xiao Wuchen became interested and went to the bottom of the cliff to relax and then pick her up?

unless……

He had known she would be there!

Xiao Wuchen was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke, "Lin Xilan, what do you want?"

"It's nothing special, I just want to invite Master Xiao to be my guest!"

of course.

The place where she hosted the dinner was not at the Regent's Palace!

soon.

Lin Xilan took the person to a restaurant in the capital.

Until I got to the second floor.

Lin Xilan then said to the guards who were holding Xiao Wuchen down, "All of you go down, let me talk to him alone."

Everyone quickly retreated.

However, there are still two holdouts left in the room.

Cui'er and Qiuyue (Lin Xilan's female bodyguards).

Cui Er said quickly, "No, Princess, he is a killer from the Shadow Pavilion. Who knows if he has any tricks to save his life? Princess, you must not stay alone with him!"

Qiuyue also said, "Princess, let Qiuyue follow you! I can protect you!"

Although she is a woman, her martial arts skills are very strong and are no worse than those of ordinary male secret guards.

Lin Xilan narrowed her eyes.

He shook his head decisively.

She looked at Qiuyue, her eyes were full of scrutiny, "Qiuyue, I have some things that I want to handle myself, instead of letting the prince know, do you understand what I mean?"

Qiuyue was shocked.

She understood what Lin Xilan meant.

Lin Xilan intended to hide the fact that he had captured the Shadow Pavilion killer from the Regent.

Can……

"Why?"

They are husband and wife! The Regent is so good to Lin Xilan, why would she hide it?

Shouldn't it be that...husband and wife are together through thick and thin?

Qiuyue looked confused!

Lin Xilan said, "Don't worry, I'm not going to betray Beichen Yuan, but there are some things I don't want him to know. That's all! There are some things I want to solve by myself, because this is my business. If you really can't understand, you can also understand that I don't want my husband to worry about me, so I have to hide this from him. However, I can assure you that what I do will never threaten Beichen Yuan in the slightest! Qiuyue, can you understand what I mean?"

Qiuyue nodded.

She got it.

"Since you all understand what I mean, you and Cui'er should go down first. I have something to say to Mr. Xiao."

"Yes." Qiuyue obediently stepped back.

But Cui'er.

He refused to leave no matter what.

Lin Xilan just ignored her and let her go.

She looked at the person who was tied up like a knot opposite her with a smile.

"I never thought that Master Xiao would be the one to come and take my head. It seems that Shadow Pavilion values ​​me, the Regent Princess, very much!"

The other party is silent.

Cui'er, who had known nothing so far, was confused by Lin Xilan's words!

Cui'er was carrying a big knife used by the secret guards.

Face.

at a loss.

Mr. Xiao?

Which Mr. Xiao?

Does the princess know this killer from Shadow Pavilion?

Oh my God!

Cui'er had already forgotten about Xiao Wuchen who had invited them to dinner that day, and she was still shocked that the princess actually knew this killer!

Xiao Wuchen was silent.

After a long time, he slowly asked, "How did you know?"

He thought he was a good actor, so how could Lin Xilan see through it so easily?

The other party smiled slightly and said casually.

"Your cabin is three miles away from where I fell off the cliff. Even if you're just taking a walk, there's no need to go so far to relax."

"Secondly, you can bring it back from such a far place without anyone's help... Isn't that strange?"

"Unless you knew that I would fall here and went to look for me on purpose, and you happened to have martial arts skills, so you could carry me back from such a far place..."

Every time she spoke, the other person's eyes darkened and finally laughed.

"Hahahaha... Lin Xilan, you played this trick of luring people into a trap very well..."
