At midnight, the entire Shangyong Imperial City fell into a deep sleep.
Even in a place like the west of the city, after some distance from Mingyin Pavilion, the surroundings become dark and quiet.
A carriage was slowly driving forward on the street. The driver was chatting quietly with the guards sitting next to him. Behind the carriage, there were four guards on horseback.
In the carriage, a fair but greasy man in his early thirties hugged a delicate and charming beauty. While teasing the beauty, he played with the strangely shaped piece of colorful glass in his hand with disdainful eyes.
The beauty leaned on the man's arms and asked curiously: "Is this the treasure that the young master spent more than one million taels to buy?"
The man sneered and said: "What treasure? It's just glass that is almost useless? If I want this kind of thing, I can buy a whole house."
The beauty smiled sweetly, "In that case, why did you spend so much money on a useless thing?"
The man lifted the beauty's chin, kissed her hard on the lips, and said with a smile: "One million taels is too much? It's just... If this one million taels can buy a beautiful woman's favor, then it's barely enough.
It’s worth it.”
The beauty blinked her eyes with surprise on her face, but she didn't expect the man to say mercilessly: "I am not talking about you."
The smile on the beauty's face was a little stiff, but she still leaned on the man's arms softly and bonelessly, "I am just a promiscuous woman, how can I not be self-aware? How can I be worthy of being so highly regarded by the young master? It's just... I don't know how beautiful the young master is.
who is it?"
The man smiled and said: "The person who just snatched something from me is a stunning beauty."
The beauty was startled, "But, isn't that a man?" She was taken into the underground palace by the man, and naturally she watched how the man spent money like water.
The man snorted softly, "What do you know?"
Being scolded by him like this, the beauty was not angry, and looked at him with a pair of charming and affectionate eyes. With such a charming beauty, even a veteran in love among thousands of flowers could not help but feel hot in his heart, and hugged the beauty again.
It was a nice intimacy.
"It's not surprising if you don't know, but the person sitting there is the most beautiful woman in Dongling thirty years ago." The man said with a smile.
"Thirty years ago..." The beauty in his arms was speechless, and she couldn't help but look at the man with a bit of weirdness and weirdness in her eyes.
The most beautiful woman thirty years ago, no matter how amazing she is, she is still old enough to be your mother, right?
But this man was not ashamed at all, and said enthusiastically: "As long as you are good-looking, what is the importance of age? If you can win the favor of Dongling Shuang, this million will not be wasted."
The beauty probably really doesn’t want to talk about this topic anymore. Not only is it a weird issue of age and seniority, no beauty likes to hear a man praise another woman in front of him.
Still an... old woman!
"Sir, can this... be shown to the slave family?"
The man really didn't care about this thing, so he threw it to the beauty in his arms, "Look, just don't break it."
The beauty quickly took it in her hand and began to observe it carefully.
The man looked at her and sneered, "What's so good about her? Isn't it just half a piece of glass?"
The beauty said: "But this piece of glass is worth one million, isn't it worth taking a closer look?"
The man laughed loudly, "You're right!"
The man looked at the beauty in his arms fondly playing with the colorful glass with a bit of contempt, and his mind soon wandered to nowhere.
The carriage got farther and farther away from Mingyin Pavilion, and the streets became darker and quieter on both sides. The only sounds that could be heard were the wheels and the horses' hooves running across the road.
The carriage suddenly shook, and there was a slightly panicked sound of the coachman controlling the horse from outside, and then there was the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
"What's going on?!" The carriage stopped quickly, and the man said angrily.
No one answered outside. The man let go of the trembling beauty in his arms, stood up and opened the car curtain.
In the quiet and dark street, only the lights hanging on the four corners of the carriage gave off a faint light. The coachman was still sitting in his seat motionless, but his body was trembling slightly.
The guard who was sitting next to him has disappeared.
"What's going on? Someone is here!"
The man stuck his head out of the carriage and looked back at the guards following the carriage. After just one glance, his pupils suddenly shrank, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The four well-trained horses were still following the carriage half a car body behind, but there were no people on the horses. Four corpses were lying on the ground at the feet of the horses.
Under the dark night, the ground beneath their bodies was soaked in large areas of black.
"Mr. Fang, excuse me." A faint voice came from nowhere.
The man looked around in panic and confusion before finally focusing on something.
At some point, two people stood under the eaves of the street. In the darkness of the night, he could not see their faces clearly. He only knew that they were two tall and slender men.
"You...who are you?" The man was frightened and his voice was a bit sharp and harsh. "You, you are so brave! Do you know who I am!"
The man standing further back chuckled, and took a step forward with a hint of contempt in his voice, "Who doesn't know that the Fang family in Yingzhou is as rich as any other country?"
The man calmed down and gritted his teeth and said: "Since you know, then leave wisely, otherwise the Fang family will not let you go!"
"We don't want to offend the Fang family, so we'll ask Mr. Fang to borrow something and leave immediately."
"What do you want?" the man asked.
"The piece of colorful glass that Mr. Fang took at Mingyin Pavilion tonight."
The man stared at the two people under the eaves with some suspicion, gritted his teeth and said: "No one knows my identity! You are the ones at the auction tonight!"
The other party remained silent, obviously not returning his intention.
The young master from an extremely wealthy family was somewhat arrogant, but he was not a complete fool. He looked at the two people suspiciously, "Are you... the ones who rob me? Why, you can't rob me with all your financial resources, so you just want to
Want to rob? Mrs. Rong of the Qi tribe is nothing more than that."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The streets became more and more silent. After an unknown period of time, the person under the eaves suddenly chuckled, "In this case, I can't keep you here."
The man's face changed slightly, and he quickly said: "Wait a minute! It's just a piece of glass, I don't care about it! Just give it to Mrs. Rong, but you have to ensure my safety!"
"Can."
The man breathed a sigh of relief, turned around quickly and said to the people inside: "Quick, bring it!"
However, when he turned around, he froze, and his face instantly turned pale.
The charming beauty who was originally sitting in the carriage has disappeared, as if she had never existed at all, together with the colorful glass bought for one million taels.
It seems that something is destined to happen tonight. There are no stars or moon. It is a good time for murder and arson to occur when the moon is dark and the wind is high.
The deep and narrow alleys make it even more difficult to see at night.
In the night, a slender figure shuttled quickly through the alley, her slender figure almost blending into the night.
Although the surroundings were dark, her charming eyes were particularly bright in the night, with a smile in them.
Suddenly, her footsteps stopped.
Not far in front of her, a tall black figure suddenly appeared.
That person seemed to appear there suddenly. If she hadn't been used to moving in the dark, she might have bumped into him directly.
The woman cautiously took two steps back and quietly hid the thing in her hand.
"It's not just an expert? But what's wrong with this little girl?" The woman's hand holding the thing trembled slightly, but her words were still tender and tender, making people's hearts itch.
Unfortunately, the other party obviously didn't want to follow her lead. The man blocking the alley said in a deep voice: "Bring it here."
The woman's expression changed slightly, and she forced a smile and said, "What are you getting?"
The man snorted coldly and walked towards her.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the woman suddenly laughed sweetly, "Since you want it, I'll give it to you. Go on!"
A strong gust of wind shot towards the man opposite, and almost at the same time the woman turned around and flew away towards the way she came.
Unfortunately, her move could not stop the opponent.
The man raised his hand and made a clang sound, and the concealed weapon shot at him was knocked away.
The next moment, the woman who was running wildly felt a gust of cold wind coming from behind her head. She didn't even have time to escape, so she let out a scream and fell to the ground.
The man strolled over, lowered his head and gently kicked the woman's right hand with his foot, then leaned over and picked up a piece of colorful glass from her hand.
The man's eyes swept across the woman's wide-eyed face, and he said with a hint of contempt: "Jade-faced fox? Nothing more than that."
The jade-faced fox is a well-known thief in the world. This time she somehow targeted the eldest son of the Fang family in Yingzhou. She did steal a priceless treasure, but unfortunately she also lost her life.
The man turned around to leave, but his eyes suddenly froze, his hand holding the knife tightened, and he stared coldly at the alley ahead.
"come out!"
At both ends of the alley, people walked over.
This night was destined to be a sleepless night for Prince Wei.
In less than an hour, he watched at least four murder cases and saw Wucai Liuli move his hand three times.
At this time, Prince Wei was sitting on a roof somewhere in the city, looking at the streets ahead from a distance, as if he could really see something.
In fact, even though Prince Wei was a veteran of many battlefields, he could not see anything at such a distance and in such darkness.
Yawning out of boredom, Wei Changting felt that he should learn from Xie Yan and Luo Jinyan and go home early to sleep instead of blowing the cold wind here.
But fortunately, it was not completely fruitless.
Wei Changting glanced at the slender figure standing on the edge of the eaves not far ahead, "Shuangshuang, do we really not want to grab it?"
Leng Shuang glanced back at him and said, "The prince said he wouldn't rob him."
After a pause, she added: "My name is Leng Shuang. Your Majesty, please respect yourself."
Wei Changting smiled brightly and said, "Don't be so cold. We have a life-or-death friendship. Just call me Zizhen."
Leng Shuang said: "I don't dare."
Wei Changting said: "You are Xie Yan's subordinate, not mine."
This is actually not wrong. Originally, when Wei Changting was still in the Zhenguo Army, he had a higher rank than Leng Shuang, so he was naturally Leng Shuang's boss. But now that Crown Prince Wei has been transferred to the position of Minister of Household Affairs, the two of them really have nothing to do with each other.
Already.
Leng Shuang was obviously not interested in his chatter, so she turned around and continued to look at the dark night in the distance.
Wei Changting sighed, Miss Leng Shuang was good at everything, but she was too cold to get close to her. If she were as delicate and sweet as their little princess...
Prince Wei shuddered, forget it, he still prefers Shuangshuang. As delicate and sweet as it is, let His Highness the Regent enjoy it by himself.
On a roof in the distance, something light flashed slightly for a few times. The light was very weak and it was not easy to attract people's attention.
Leng Shuang said in a deep voice: "It seems that Wang Fan is in trouble, let's go over and have a look."
Wei Changting's eyes lit up, "Qi people?"
Leng Shuang said: "If the Regent's Palace doesn't take action, the only people who can threaten him in Shangyong City now, apart from Mingyin Pavilion, should be the Qi people."
"Let's go!" The two of them flew up, over the roofs, and headed towards the direction where the glimmer of light was shining just now.
Wang Fan was indeed in trouble at this time. He was holding the piece of colorful glass that had been stained with unknown amounts of blood tonight in his hand, and stared coldly at the man blocking his way.
"Qufang, others are afraid of you, but I, Wang Fan, are not afraid of you." Wang Fan said coldly.
The person standing in front of him was none other than Mobei Shenjian Qufang.
Before tonight, Wang Fan had never fought against Qu Fang. After all, when Qu Fang retired, Wang Fan was still an unknown junior. How could he have the chance to see the famous Mobei Divine Sword?
Therefore, Wang Fan didn't pay much attention to Qu Fang, although the moment of tonight's exchange made him know that the opponent was extraordinary.
What is the Mobei Divine Sword, the best master outside the Great Wall?
He is just a loser who is obsessed with women and is willing to be a dog to women!
Qu Fang was not moved by Wang Fan's obviously disdainful look. He said calmly: "Keep your things and you go."
Wang Fan sneered, "You want this thing? You have to have this ability. Does that girl named Bai still need to rely on you to protect her now? If you fight with me, both sides will lose, and those powerful people in Yonghuang City will not be able to do it."
Swallowed her?"
Qu Fang looked cold and solemn, unmoved.
He does have some deterrent effects, but the alliance between the Qi tribe and Dasheng is almost a foregone conclusion, and those Dasheng dignitaries will not take action at this time even if they hate it.
Naturally, there is no need to say these words to someone like Wang Fan.
Wang Fan raised his eyebrows and said: "It's not impossible to give you something, but I'm a little curious, how did that bitch Bai Jingrong get you people to obey her? You...and that poisonous king, ah, and that one named Yu
Damn it. Isn’t it right to leave a good general who governs the country and go to the Qi tribe to be a dog for others? What do you think? Why don’t you let that woman accompany me for a while..."
Before he finished speaking, a sword energy struck him head-on.
Wang Fan ducked sideways to avoid the sudden attack.
Qu Fang stared at the man opposite him coldly, "It seems that Xie Yan didn't teach you back then what it means to be cautious in your words and deeds."
Upon hearing Xie Yan's name, Wang Fan's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
What was more, was the overwhelming anger that followed. His defeat to Xie Yan back then was the biggest shame in his life. It seemed to have become his vice, and no one else dared to mention it in front of him.
"Qu Fang, who do you think you are? You dare to mention those days to me!" Before he finished speaking, he had already raised his knife and rushed towards Qu Fang.
