Under the threat, Xue Beiwang's expression sank, and the wooden table next to him collapsed with his palm.

Seeing this, the guards following the man quickly drew their swords and stood in front of the man.

"Presumptuous! The master only respectfully called you a messenger for the sake of the third prince. You really treat yourself like a toy."

His eyes turned cold, and he held the guard's wrist. With skill, the silver blade plunged into his body with a muffled sound, and the flesh was torn apart by the sharp blade. He turned the blade in his body with a cold face, and his knuckles were soaked in hot blood .

When he let go of his hand, the silent guard, with his eyes wide open, fell straight back.

The man said in a deep voice, "What does the messenger mean?"

Xue Beiwang looked at the blood stained on his knuckles with distaste, and said, "I will tell you with my actions, I am rather stingy."

The man glanced at the guard's body and let out a snort: "Don't forget, I and the third prince are allies."

Xue Beiwang said: "Forget, after what you said just now, you are the one lying here."

He was not at all stupid and shy like being alone in the room with Jueyu.

"I will do what you arrange, don't send your people to follow me."

This trick of killing a chicken and showing it to the monkey is just repaying the other's way with the other's body.

He could have spared killing the guard, but Jueyu's threat made him uncomfortable, and his ears couldn't get dirty after all.

The man under the veil frowned, his words were more restrained than before, and he took out a note from his body and handed it to Xue Beiwang: "I have arranged a place for you to eat and drink at the Chengbei Inn. I will send new guards wherever the envoy stays." With you."

Xue Beiwang took the note, glanced at the address above, and kept the note carefully.

The man leaned forward and said: "Today's words are my transgressions, and I still hope the messenger Haihan, but I should remind the messenger that the presence of the messenger will only serve as a reminder for those powerless women in the flower building."

Xue Beiwang said, "Oh, is there anything else?"

The man shook his head, Xue Beiwang turned and left.

When Xue Beiwang walked away, more than a dozen guards came out from the back hall. The man took off the gauze hat, glanced indifferently at the two corpses on the ground, and raised his hand to signal his subordinates to deal with them.

"Do you want to send someone to teach that kid a lesson?"

The man shook his head and said: "In the letters to and from the third prince, he said that he would send his seventh brother here this time. This man joined the army at the age of 13 and worked hard to become a general in the army in five years. After all, he is the royal family of the Chen Kingdom. There's no need to be deadlocked, not to mention you may not be his opponents..."

The friend said: "My lord probably overestimated him, he almost fell into Prince Min's mansion before."

"It's not easy to get out of King Min's mansion alive. Don't look at the layout of the guards in Prince Min's mansion compared to today's palace. He has just arrived and knows little about Wu, so he locked King Min in such a short period of time. In the dormitory, hiding and assassinating is something extraordinary people can do, and putting him in Prince Min's Mansion may reveal some clues."

The man lowered his eyes, thought for a while, and handed the bamboo hat to the guard beside him: "I haven't seen my younger brother in more than ten years, and the iron helmet may grow on his face."

……

After the last farewell, Bai Chengjue never saw Xue Beiwang again.

The guards sent to follow him were killed by Xue Beiwang in an alley.

The person who usually only blush and giggle in front of him, and who can't even speak a word, almost killed the guard with a knife.

Hearing these news, he couldn't help being stunned, he could only put the treasure on the jade pendant in his hand for the agreed time limit.

The period of seven days is up.

Xue Beiwang took the silver sent by his personal guards to redeem the jade pendant that was left by Jueyu's side that day, and in his bosom was the champagne that she wiped off the water for him that night.

He stood not far away, waiting for Bai Chengjue to come out from the gate of Baihua Pavilion with his luggage on his back.

Xue Beiwang clenched his cuffs, raised his head and said, "Miss Jueyu."

Bai Chengjue paused, looking at the fish that took the bait, the disturbed mood of recent days was calmed down.

Bai Chengjue pulled the pouch on his back, said with a slight smile, "Last time I hurried to the hut, but unexpectedly the young master had already left. I thought that the young master would not come even today."

"Today, one is to redeem the jade pendant, and the other is to return the Jinpa to the girl."

As he spoke, he took out the purse and brocade handkerchief: "In addition to the 50 taels for repaying the girl, there are still 300 taels of silver bills. The Jinpa Xue also returned to the girl last time."

"Do you really want to be so clear?" Bai Chengjue lowered his eyes, took out the jade pendant and handed it to Xue Beiwang, "I have thought about many farewell scenes, but I never expected it to be like this today. Return the jade pendant to you, and you also keep the brocade handkerchief." Let's go..."

Xue Beiwang retrieved the jade pendant, bent down and placed the purse and the brocade handkerchief at Bai Chengjue's feet: "Miss Jueyu is a brothel girl after all, after we settle the matter today, there will be no further involvement."

After all, he turned to leave.

Bai Chengjue looked at the purse on the ground, and looked at Xue Beiwang's decisive back with puzzled eyes.

Two days ago, he kept talking about Jueyu, and when he mentioned the word Jueyu, his face would blush and his heart would beat.

A few days later, it was quite decisive to leave the purse and Jinpa behind.

Bai Chengjue had been thinking about how to use the Hero Sad Beauty Guan to control Xue Beiwang into the applause, but the sudden change disrupted his previous thinking.

Recalling the scene just now, Xue Beiwang didn't dare to look him in the eye from the time the two talked to each other.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned over to pick up the money bag on the ground and weighed it twice in his palm, his sinking face eased a bit.

On the other side, Xue Beiwang was standing at the corner of the street, heaving a sigh of relief, the jade pendant in his arms was still warm from Jueyu's palm.

He lowered his head, bit his lower lip tightly, and continued to move forward, fearing that Jueyu would catch up and call Mr. Xue again, and he could not help but soften his heart.

It was very quiet behind him, until the moment he returned to the inn and closed the door, Xue Bei looked back and leaned on the door, patted his head with his hands and didn't dare to think about Jueyu anymore.

There was a lot of noise outside the window, as if they were discussing something. Xue Bei looked towards the window and walked straight. As soon as he looked out, he saw Jueyu standing downstairs in the inn. At that moment, Jueyu looked up, and the two looked at each other. Time crouched by the windowsill.

I was not sure if Jueyu walked with him silently.

"Master, there is a pretty girl growing outside the inn. You can see it from our window. Do you want to take a look, she must be more beautiful than the flower house girl you like."

"Xiao Muzi, shut up."

Xiao Muzi said meaningfully, squatted down beside Xue Beiwang and jokingly said: "The girl downstairs, she must be the sweetheart of the master, right?"

"……no."

"Grandpa is really not straightforward."

Xue Beiwang looked at the window from time to time, Jueyu stood from day to night, he asked Xiao Muzi to deliver bedding and food, Jueyu didn't touch it at all, she stood downstairs like a log all night, as if she couldn't feel the cold hunger.

He couldn't sleep peacefully in the inn. Jueyu stood from dark to dawn, and he sat not far from the window until dawn, without any sleepiness at all.

Until noon, the breakfast on the table hadn't been moved, Xiao Muzi sighed, and ordered someone to come up and take away the food on the table.

Xiao Muzi glanced at the sky outside the window and said: "Master, it's sky outside, I think it might rain today."

Xue Beiwang clenched the jade pendant even tighter in his palm: "It's raining, she will always leave..."

"Tsk, that girl has been standing outside the inn since yesterday, and I don't know if she can handle it."

"I can't stand it, she will go."

Xiao Muzi saw that Xue Beiwang's mouth was stiff, so he stopped persuading him, and stopped joking.

Until the heavy rain poured down, Xue Beiwang looked at the figure under the inn through the window. That frail body stood in the rain, holding the luggage in his arms, and those beautiful eyes stared blankly at the front.

Xue Beiwang frowned, and slammed his hands against the wall.

Xiao Muzi said: "It's raining heavily outside, it must hurt if it hits you, sir, do you think it's necessary to give that girl an umbrella?"

"After a while, she will leave if she can't wait for me."

"...What the Lord said is true."

An hour later.

She was still standing in the rain, her body shivering from the cold under the heavy rain.

The rain didn't stop, but it was getting bigger and bigger. Downstairs, she was biting her lower lip with blood dripping out, and she looked as strong as ever.

Xue Beiwang couldn't bear it anymore, picked up the coir raincoat and was about to rush out the door when Xiao Muzi grabbed Xue Beiwang's arm.

"Master, I think that girl will leave soon. If you go, she will follow you."

Xue Beiwang shook off Xiao Muzi's hand, and changed his stubborn attitude just now: "Follow me, follow me, if she depends on me for the rest of my life, I will be happy."

Xiao Muzi smiled, leaning lazily on the door frame with his arms folded.

Seeing Xue Beiwang hurrying downstairs, why did he go so early...

At the entrance of the inn, the diners and the boss were watching from the door, watching the woman pointing under the rain, Xue Beiwang pushed aside the crowd, and put the coir raincoat on Bai Chengjue's shoulders.

"Come in with me."

Bai Chengjue took Xue Beiwang's hand, put the silver bag in his arms into his hand, and said softly: "My lord, take back the silver bag. I know that I am just a brothel woman, and I dare not go up to you, so I will give the silver bag to you this time." Come back, we have truly settled with the young master, and we will not see each other again in the future."

After finishing speaking, Bai Chengjue took off the coir raincoat that was draped over his shoulders, and walked forward slowly under the rain, with vain steps.
