"I'm just afraid that I won't have this chance." Xiao Xiao smiled wryly.

No matter how stupid Xiao Xiao is, she still knows that entering the king's city this time may be a disaster.

Xie Lao once said that if Hongmei wanted to kill him in the first place, why didn't he poison his food? Now thinking about it, it's probably because his master is a master of poison medicine, and he is afraid that his scheme will be exposed.So they lurked until they went to Jiang's house, fell asleep in the soup that day, and planned to put the blame on Yuyi who had a grudge with them.Later, when they had nothing to do, they temporarily hid themselves, and only waited until there was no one around him this time.Now even if he escaped the second round by luck, but the enemy is in the dark and he is in the open, he has no confidence in surviving the third time.Coupled with the fact that another group of killers on the first floor were hired by someone, Xiao Xiao really felt that she would not be able to get out of the royal city, and she might even be assassinated if she couldn't get to the royal city.

"No, as long as the crown prince protects you in the royal city, I don't believe anyone else would dare to do it!" Cong Xue only occasionally heard her father mention the factional disputes in the court, so she thought it was Prince Xiao Xiao's identity as an admonisher. Exposure led to the pursuit of other parties.But she trusts her father enough, and she also has full confidence in the prince who her father follows, so she comforts Xiao Xiao with certainty.

"Brother Liu is no longer in control."

Xiao Xiao is not as naive as Cong Xue. Although Liu Ziming is a prince, the power is still in the hands of the old emperor, and Liu Ziming still needs to borrow the power of his imperial concubine.There are too few forces belonging to Liu Ziming himself, and it is only the old emperor's plan to be able to compete with the Rong family now, otherwise Liu Ziming will never be as easy as he is now.Liu Ziming had to work hard to gain a firm foothold in the imperial court, so how could he have the time to protect him from the wind and rain?

Not to mention who knows if these assassinations were the work of the old emperor...

The more Xiao Xiao thought about it, the heavier her heart became. She felt that she was going to the Hongmen Banquet, but she had to.He sighed deeply, thinking that luckily he had told Jiang Muyu the location of the hidden property at home, so that the child would not have nothing to eat when he came back.

"You mean..."

Cong Xue's heart also set off a turbulent sea, and she heard the unfinished meaning in Xiao Xiao's words.She bit her lips: "Even so, I won't listen. If you want to say something, you have to say it yourself."

"Then let me tell myself what I said," Xiao Xiao knew in her heart that the girl was just stubborn, "I'm sorry Jiang Muyu, I can't do what I promised you. Although I have to, I don't regret it. There is just one thing. I really regret that I couldn't watch you grow up with my own eyes..."

Cong Xue burst into tears again.But this time she didn't wipe it off, she just carefully wrote down every word Xiao Xiao said in her heart, hoping that God would not take such a good person away.She thought that if there was such a day, if there was such a day, she would ignore Qiu Lang and must tell Jiang Muyu Xiao Xiao's heartfelt confession to him in this dark tree hole, and let him know that there was a time. Personally love him so much.

Qiu Lang...

"So you must live, don't die in front of me."

Xiao Xiao said with a little nostalgia: "In this world, there are many things that can only be cherished besides love, and women should not only serve men all their lives. Do you know the story of Hua Mulan? Women can be like men. If even death Don't be afraid, why should you be afraid of the shackles this world imposes on you?"

"I..." Cong Xue opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.She wondered in confusion, could this be the difference between a mortal and a gentleman?Why did Mr. Xiao keep talking about things she didn't understand?
