"But after going around in a circle, don't you know?" Ximen Hao chuckled disapprovingly, "If you continue to check the relationship between Ximen Yi and Jiangnan, you won't be wrong."
"Yes." Chen Mo said.
"Really Concubine Shu?" Su Ranhua whispered softly.
Ximen Hao looked back at Su Ranhua behind him, a light flashing in his eyes.
When Chen Mo heard Su Ranhua's words, he was slightly startled. Although Ximen Hao asked him to continue investigating Ximen Yi, he never thought that Concubine Shu, the woman who lived in the deep palace, had the ability to surpass Ximen Yi's control.
People outside the palace?
However, it can be seen from Ximen Hao's expression that Su Ranhua was right.
"Go back to Mingyue Tower first," Ximen Hao said.
Everyone hid in the night and quietly returned to the city. It was dawn and the sky was dimly lit.
"Don't announce to the outside world that we have been found." After returning to Mingyue Tower, Ximen Hao confessed, "Don't touch those killers yet, let them continue searching along the riverside under the cliff. Let Doctor Liu take this opportunity to confess to the emperor.
, before we show up, we must first resolve Su Ranhua’s matter."
Then, Ximen Hao explained his arrangements to Chen Mo one by one.
Su Ranhua returned to the room where she had lived. After eating something, she lay down to rest. She wanted to squint for a while, but as soon as she closed her eyes, the figure of Ximen Hao appeared in her mind, always cold and cold.
Sudden soft protective overlay, sometimes clear and sometimes blurry.
Ximen Hao's natural domineering and evil and handsome appearance can show his unique charm. He is not like Ximen Yi who is full of peach blossoms, nor is he like Su Luocheng who is sly and cunning, nor is he like Ximen Zhe.
of innocence and weakness.
He is cold and cruel, but his attitude towards her is difficult to understand.
He hated her, and he had enough reasons. Being set up by someone to marry a woman he didn't love and who was pregnant with someone else's child was enough to make every man resentful.
However, he would actually gamble his life with her and exchange one percent of his life for her future. This cannot be explained by just saying that he wants her to work for him wholeheartedly and wants to conquer her.
This is a non-equivalent deal. He can train countless subordinates who are loyal to him, and there is no need to trade his slim chance of survival for one of her.
The only reason that can explain this unusual behavior is that Ximen Hao has a special feeling for her.
Su Ranhua was startled by her thoughts. She was not good at understanding men's thoughts. For the first time, she seriously thought about a man who had made her hate and annoyed her, and who had saved her from death.
Or the man who almost died with her.
Ximen Hao was completely different from the man she met in her previous life. That man only loved her from beginning to end, but in the end he took her life with his own hands. However, Ximen Hao saved her while hating her.
Su Ranhua felt that her head was in a mess and hit her forehead with her fist. She obviously no longer believed in any man's emotions, but she wanted to think about Ximen Hao thoroughly and prove her guess.
You want to know if he...has fallen in love with her?
What if you really fall in love?
Chen Mo was ordered to go do something. Ximen Hao stayed alone in the room. He glanced at the empty room, sat on a chair, and said coldly, "I know you are here, come out."
A very small voice rang out, and the man in black flashed out from the bed tent, sitting opposite Ximen Hao with his arms folded across his chest, with a very faint smile in his eyes, "This is the first time we have been face to face calmly.
Sit and talk."
Ximen Hao glanced at the man in black. When his people focused on searching for him, he just gave the man in black the opportunity to sneak into Mingyue Tower quietly. It was not because the defense of Mingyue Tower was lax, but because the man in black was very capable.
It's unpredictable, so you need to be more defensive against him. If you go by the usual level, it will lose its effect on him.
Just like last time, he successfully sneaked into this room and just used the escort team downstairs to deal with it, so that the people in Mingyue Tower were not exposed. But the result was that both of them were hit by the killer grass.
He used Su Ranhua to transfer the poison in time, but the man in black detoxified the deep poison.
Ximen Hao stared at the man in black intently, meeting his eyes. In a daze, he had the illusion of facing his own shadow.
"You want to see me, but you still don't ask. It's really the prince's airs." The man in black said jokingly.
"You knew I wanted to see you, so you deliberately didn't show up." Ximen Hao said coldly. This time, he really expected it wrong. The man in black didn't show up at Mingyue Tower in time because he also understood his own thoughts.
The existence of such an opponent should not be underestimated. What is even more troublesome is that he does not have any details about this man in black.
"Will you be poisoned again in your territory? I can't guarantee whether I will be so lucky again." The man in black smiled mockingly to himself.
"Give me the antidote to the killer grass. I owe you a favor." Ximen Hao told him his deal.
"Aren't you okay?" The man in black glanced at Ximen Hao and said calmly.
"You don't have to ask any more questions." Ximen Hao said, "Exchange the antidote for the killer grass for the biggest favor from me. When necessary, I can use it as a gold medal for you to avoid death."
"Haha, you expected that I would suffer a loss one day?" the man in black said with a smile.
"Don't be too arrogant. It's always good to leave a way for yourself." Ximen Hao's cold voice contained a stern warning.
The man in black knew that Ximen Hao's rare patience with him was all because of the antidote to the killer grass. Looking at Ximen Hao's cold and stern face, he put down his hands around his chest, leaned forward and got closer to Ximen Hao, with an unknown meaning in his eyes.
He said in a deep voice, "Is it for Su Ranhua?"
"I want to detoxify her." Ximen Hao did not deny it. He had an intuition that the person in front of him did not want anything unexpected to happen to Su Ranhua.
"You gave her the poison, and now you want to ask me for the antidote to be a good person. You really got the advantage and acted like a good person." The man in black turned back and crossed his legs leisurely, "Should this good person be left to me?
Is it appropriate to do this?”
"Then you go and detoxify her now." Ximen Hao said without thinking. As long as Su Ranhua's poison is detoxified, it doesn't matter who does this good deed.
"By the way, let me tell her that her physical discomfort is because you used her to transfer poison from her body?" The man in black seemed not to be satisfied with Ximen Hao's compromise and continued to add firewood to light the fire.
"I don't want to mention the past things anymore. I won't mention her past, and she shouldn't care about what I did to her in the past." Ximen Hao said, this was after he and Su Ranhua escaped death.
decision.
"Haha, you can really understand what I said." The man in black smiled, "Does this mean that you don't care about her past?"
As he said that, the man in black paused slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Like me, you fell in love with that woman."
