"Do you think I will believe what you say?" Ran Yunpo looked at the woman in front of him with a sneer, not thinking that her words had any credibility. "Who sent you here? What is the purpose? Tell me!
"
"Don't believe it?" Bai Moyue chuckled and took a step back. "If you don't believe it, just go to Tianming Mountain and take a look. By the way, remember to send someone to Xunnuan Building to pay attention to Zijuan's movements.
Because it was none other than Zijuan who made things like this."
After saying that, before Ran Yunpo could react, Bai Moyue quickly disappeared from his eyes and rushed towards Tianming Mountain.
Ran Yunpo stared at the direction Bai Moyue left for a moment, then turned around suddenly and found Ran Yunhao and Ran Yunchou who had not yet left the Chu Palace.
"One of you go to the Xunnuan Building to find the woman named Zijuan for me. Don't allow her to leave sight. The other one goes to find the whereabouts of Shui Rongyan. If you find Shui Rongyan, take her to the palace."
After Ran Yunpo finished speaking to himself, he turned around and left in a hurry. Ran Yunhao and Ran Yunchou were somewhat confused as to what happened.
"What happened?" Ran Yunchou looked at Ran Yunhao beside him in confusion and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know." Ran Yunhao shook his head with a deep look, "Let's go to the Xunnuan Building together. If Shui Rongyan is not there, you stay there and watch the person named Zijuan, and then I will find the whereabouts of Shui Rongyan
.Finally, we will meet at the Xunnuan Building.”
"Understood." Ran Yunchou nodded, and the two left the Chu Prince's Mansion side by side and walked towards the Xunnuan Building.
When they arrived at Xunnuan Building, Shui Rongyan was not found. Ran Yunhao left alone and headed to Yunliu Street. Ran Yunchou named Zijuan by name.
"Master, Zijuan is not feeling well today and can't accept guests. What do you think, how about I find another girl for you?" The madam approached Ran Yunchou's body with a smile and said, "We
The girls here are all as beautiful as gods, we don’t necessarily have to be Zijuan, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Ran Yunchou impatiently distanced himself from the Madam, took out the banknote from his waist and threw it away. "Whether she is sick or something, I want to see her now.
If it's timely affairs, bring her to me."
The madam looked at the banknote in his hand with shining eyes, and then at Ran Yunchou, who was gorgeously dressed and handsome. Without thinking any more, he led Ran Yunchou up to the second floor with a smile on his face.
"Zijuan, open the door." When she reached the door of Zijuan's room, the madam knocked on the door and said, "Hurry up!"
Zijuan's coughing sound came from inside the house, and after a while, the door was opened from the inside.
Ran Yunchou stood behind the madam. The moment the door opened, he ignored Zijuan's obstruction and entered her room.
Zijuan glanced at Ran Yunchou who entered the room with an unhappy face, and then turned her gaze to the fat woman with a hypocritical smile at the door. She strode out of the threshold, opened the door ajar, and said: "Didn't I tell you,
I'm not feeling well today, why don't you accept guests?"
"My good daughter, this is a generous man." The old bustard waved the banknote Ran Yunchou gave her in front of Zijuan and said, "You must seize the opportunity, maybe you can get it."
Just like Yan'er girl, she flew onto a branch and became a phoenix!"
Zijuan listened impatiently to what the madam had said. She said nothing more and turned back to the room. But when she heard the first words Ran Yunchou said, she regretted her return to this room.
"Ran Yunchou, my name." Ran Yunchou sat on the chair, looking at Zijuan intently, and said.
Zijuan was stunned and immediately had a bad feeling. Although it was the first time she heard this name, the surname Situ was enough for Zijuan to understand the seriousness of the matter!
"The common people have seen the prince." Zi Juan knelt on the ground with a pop and lowered her head.
"Get up." Ran Yunchou squinted his eyes and spoke slowly, "If you feel uncomfortable, go to bed and rest. I want to wait for someone here."
Waiting for someone? Who is he waiting for?
Zijuan didn't have the courage to ask Ran Yunchou questions, so she had to try her best to pretend that she didn't know anything, and served Ran Yunchou with tea and water. Finally, with Ran Yunchou's cold voice to dissuade her, she walked to the scene with swaying steps.
Beside the bed, go to bed and rest.
Ran Yunchou stayed in Zijuan's room for nearly an hour, and then Ran Yunhao appeared in front of him with a gloomy face.
"Shui Rongyan is dead." Ran Yunhao frowned and told Ran Yunchou about the news he had just received, and then glanced at Zi Juan on the bed.
"Dead?" Ran Yunchou opened his eyes wide in surprise, "How is it possible? Who did it?"
"It's not clear yet. Third brother is probably investigating this matter. Let's go back to the palace and wait for him."
Ran Yunhao and Ran Yunchou took Zijuan, who was in tears after learning that Shui Rongyan had died, back to Prince Chu's Mansion. They locked Zijuan in the room, and the two sat in the yard, discussing the matter in a low voice.
possibility.
However, after many discussions, the two of them could not figure out the reason why Ran Yunpo asked them to monitor Zijuan. Was he afraid that Zijuan would also be killed? Or was there another reason? In desperation, the two had no choice but to send people while
Go and dispose of Shui Rongyan's body while waiting for Ran Yunpo's return...
Ran Yunpo hurriedly arrived at Tianming Mountain. Standing at the foot of the mountain, Ran Yunpo looked sharply at the position on the mountain. Will Xi Honglei really be here?
After thinking about it, Ran Yunpo gritted his teeth and quickly went up the mountain. After finding the bandit's den, Ran Yunpo's heart skipped a beat.
Jumping off the horse, Ran Yunpo took his long sword and climbed over the wall several people high to the inside of the cottage. But to Ran Yunpo's surprise, the scene inside was already in chaos.
Ran Yunpo glanced at the corpses lying on the ground, and frowned as he walked in the direction of the sound of fighting. After arriving at the chaotic scene, Ran Yunpo looked at the people wearing black brocade clothes and masks on their faces, looking at them with ease.
After walking among the numerous bandits and killing them effortlessly, Ran Yunpo clenched his fists and began to look around for where Xi Honglei might be.
With keen intuition, Ran Yunpo finally found the suspicious location after searching. But the figure standing outside the door made Ran Yunpo cautious.
Ran Yunpo pulled out his sword and walked forward slowly. Listening to the sounds coming from the room, Ran Yunpo's nerves became tense involuntarily.
"I didn't expect that Prince Chu would really come." After hearing Ran Yunpo's footsteps, the man at the door slowly turned around. He leaned against the wall, looked directly at Ran Yunpo with his hands folded, and said, "It's really unexpected.
Beyond my expectations.”
"Are you... Leng Xiao?" Ran Yunpo looked at the strange mask on the man's face with cold eyes. It was different from the ones on the faces of those people just now. Moreover, Ran Yunpo could clearly feel the strong murderous aura emanating from this man.
.
"You guessed it." Ran Yunpo's reaction made Leng Xiao chuckle and nod. Then he turned his head, followed the slit of the window, looked at the situation inside the house, and said to Ran Yunpo with deep meaning: "This breath of red tears
, she is really an interesting woman.”
After hearing Leng Xiao's words, Ran Yunpo immediately rushed over and kicked the door open with force. Leng Xiao, on the other hand, stood silently behind him, watching his every move.
Ran Yunpo quickly found Xi Honglei. He saw Xi Honglei holding a dagger and his clothes were messy. Although it was not to the point of being naked, it was not much better. His hair was scattered, and his hands and face were messy.
There were streaks of blood all over it. Even the gauze wrapped around his hand was stained red with blood.
Seeing this situation, Ran Yunpo stopped thinking and rushed towards Xi Honglei immediately. However, another figure was far faster than Ran Yunpo and reached Xi Honglei's side in the blink of an eye.
Leng Xiao hugged the tired Xi Honglei's waist, glanced at Xi Honglei's pale face, and threatened in a low voice: "Hold on, don't faint!"
Xi Honglei glared at Leng Xiao weakly. She didn't expect that she would be threatened by him in this situation. She attached all her body weight to Leng Xiao's body, and the dagger Xi Honglei had been holding tightly.
It also fell to the ground.
"Let her go!" Ran Yunpo ended their lives with the sword in his hand. When he came to Leng Xiao's side, Ran Yunpo said sternly: "She is not someone you can touch!"
"Oh? Really?" Leng Xiao raised his eyebrows with interest, and at the same time shot a dart into the enemy's throat with his backhand. "If I insist on touching her, I wonder what Prince Chu will do to me?"
Leng Xiao's obvious provocation made Ran Yunpo lose consciousness for a moment. Without making a sound immediately, Ran Yunpo and Leng Xiao ended the lives of some other remnant soldiers in the room as quickly as possible. After that, the two fought against each other, and then
The topic was opened up once.
Leng Xiao tightly locked Xi Honglei in his arms and looked at Ran Yunpo with a smile in his eyes.
"Leng Xiao, as a member of the Jianghu, what is your purpose?" Ran Yunpo looked at Leng Xiao's actions and frowned. Thinking of what Ran Yunhao said before, and the case of Zhang Heng's family being silenced, Ran Yunpo looked at Leng Xiao's actions and frowned.
He asked loudly: "What do you want to do with Xi Honglei?"
"Prince Chu is really straightforward." Leng Xiao leaned over and picked up Xi Honglei around his waist. He glanced sideways at Ran Yunpo and said, "Since the prince has asked this, I might as well tell you directly. My only purpose is
One is the one in my arms. Xi Honglei is the woman I have fallen in love with. I wonder if Prince Chu understands what I say?"
"The woman you like?" Ran Yunpo snorted coldly, approaching Leng Xiao and Xi Honglei step by step. "Xi Honglei is my soon-to-be princess. If you don't want to go against the court, you'd better not have any ideas about her!
