Lin Xilan is missing!

Beichen Xifeng's eyes turned cold.

He pushed open the door, but saw only an empty bed and a pool of blood on it.

……

"I never thought that a regent princess would be drugged with an aphrodisiac and lie half-dead on the Ninth Prince's bed. If I tell Beichen Yuan about this, I wonder how ugly his face will be..."

"Aren't you and the Ninth Prince's wife so-called confidants? When did you two turn against each other? Why? Hmm?"

"Anyway, I never thought that the Ninth Prince's wife would be so cruel to you!"

As expected, the relationships between women are so difficult to understand.

In the prince's palace.

Somewhere in a remote courtyard.

The sunlight shines through the sparse curtains and into every corner of the room.

Xiao Wuchen, dressed in plain blue clothes, sat quietly beside the bed, looking at Lin Xilan on the bed thoughtfully.

The other person's breathing was weak.

It seemed as if he would die at any moment.

Xiao Wuchen looked at the woman sleeping on the bed.

smiled.

Looking at Lin Xilan who was suffering every minute, he leaned over to her ear and spoke in a very seductive voice.

"Oh, Princess Regent, this is another coincidence. I just wanted to find a place to relax and visit some friends, so I went to the Ninth Prince's Mansion. I didn't expect to encounter such a good thing..."

He lowered his eyes.

The woman in front of him was silent, her face was pale, and her slender neck with loose black hair seemed as if it could be strangled with one hand.

He suddenly realized: This is a good time to kill someone...

He thought expressionlessly.

——If Lin Xilan is killed, there will be one less person in the world who knows his hidden identity, and there will be a little more protection.

This guy is interesting though.

but--

Who made her Beichen Yuan’s princess?

The Lin Xilan in front of him is too dangerous for him!

and so……

He should……

Xiao Wuchen's hand slowly reached for the other person's neck, and just as he was about to tighten his grip, the unconscious person suddenly started coughing violently.

then.

Lin Xilan suddenly opened her eyes. Her face became paler, completely losing her former rosy and radiant complexion.

Her eyes were closed, and her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow in the dim light.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Cough cough..."

Damn it!

This is the only thought in Lin Xilan’s heart!

She never expected that she would capsize in the gutter. Not only was she drugged by Yun Susu, whom she had never suspected, but as a master doctor, she didn't even notice anything was wrong!

She woke up feeling aggrieved, and a pair of sharp phoenix eyes swept over her.

But she saw someone she didn't expect.

"Xiao Wuchen, why is it you?"

——Wasn’t the person she saw before she fell into coma the Ninth Prince Beichenxi?

and.

The other person was pinching her neck. What did that mean?

What do you mean?

She quickly looked around and her face turned pale. Facing the threat of death, she suddenly felt her limp body regain strength.

"You, you, you...what do you want to do! You...you are now the gentleman Xiao Wuchen, not the murderer Shadow Pavilion. Killing me like this is not in line with your current gentlemanly personality, so I suggest you calm down..."

"Impulsiveness often leads to people doing things they regret. Calm down..."

"I have no grudge against you in the past or in the present, you killed me with such bad conscience!"

Lin Xilan looked alert and grasped the other person's palm tightly with both hands.

Xiao Wuchen: “…”

He twitched his lips, "I haven't said a word yet... but you've said a lot."

nonsense!

Facing death threats, can she still remain calm?

Xiao Wuchen withdrew his hand.

Although he did think about taking advantage of the situation and strangle Lin Xilan to death, he hasn't succeeded yet, has he?

"As a killer, the fact that you are standing in front of me already explains everything..."

Lin Xilan is not a fool.

After she risked her life to lure Xiao Wuchen out, the two of them became opposites. Once the affairs of the Shadow Pavilion were exposed, this man would definitely be in trouble.

Yes.

After that meeting, Lin Xilan decided that she would never meet the other person again in her life!

From now on, we will have no more intersection, this is the best!

...Who knew that I could meet this guy in the Ninth Prince's Mansion? ? ?

Wasn't he a poor hermit who loved living in seclusion, writing poetry, and composing poems? One moment he was drinking and chatting happily with the Second Prince, and the next moment he was in the Ninth Prince's mansion...

Unreasonable.

"How did you take me away from under the Ninth Prince's nose?"

she said.

Her fingers were silently ready to pinch the silver needle and she smiled gently.

It's fine.

If you can't dodge, there's still a chance, she has a lot of hidden weapons!

Xiao Wuchen said helplessly, "Princess, you should thank me. If I didn't bring you out, you would be poisoned by the aphrodisiac. If something happened, even the Regent would not be able to protect you."

He finally had the urge to do something good.

For him, it was extremely rare.

Lin Xilan frowned.

She finally discovered that the aphrodisiac in her body had worn off, and the original heat was gradually subsiding.

Xiao Wuchen did not lie to her.

She was silent for a while, and then she spoke slowly after a long time.

"Thank you."

"It's really not easy to hear a thank you from the princess."

"..."

"Don't worry, I don't want to kill you yet. I admit that for a moment just now, I wanted to kill you. But now I think it's more interesting to keep you alive."

"..."

They looked at each other speechlessly.

Lin Xilan said, "In that case...since you saved me, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of silver when I return."

"From now on, you don't need to sell yourself to the Killer Pavilion!"

"OK?

Lin Xilan paused, as if she thought of something, and frowned slightly.

"Beichen Yuan is investigating the Shadow Pavilion. He may want to catch them all in one fell swoop. If you stay there, you will definitely be implicated. I suggest you quit your job."

Xiao Wuchen: “…”

He smiled.

When he heard the words "selling oneself", he did have an urge to strangle Lin Xilan to death, but at the same time he also found it a little funny.

Perhaps in Lin Xilan's eyes, he was a person who had to join the Shadow Pavilion.

She certainly doesn't know.

The Shadow Pavilion is his power.

Xiao Wuchen rubbed his forehead and curled the corners of his lips calmly, "Then I thank the princess for the reward."

Lin Xilan sat down on the bed, her long black hair was loose and looked a little messy. She tidied it up casually and prepared to leave.

"Where are you going? I'm looking for you everywhere outside. Are you sure you want to go out at this time?"

Lin Xilan sneered.

"Of course, I'm going to tear up Green Tea! Going out now is the best time! Isn't it?"
