Early the next morning, Su Xiyue left the house first, bringing with her the beautiful scenery and Xiaolu.
Su Lian and Su Yu were taken by Mrs. Cao to their aunt's house for the poetry festival!
In fact, the old lady is not willing to let Su Xiyue go. Firstly, she is worried that she will be in danger if she leaves the house, and secondly, because the background of the Cao family is really low! Only the Cao family's brother is now considered a child.
The fourth-grade lieutenant general, her sister, is married to a merchant! Although there is no shortage of money, the merchant's status is a bit low after all! However, fortunately, a few years ago, he donated some money for disaster relief and won the favor of the court.
Thanks to Su Jue's activities, he received a sixth-grade job. Speaking of which, he could be regarded as an official of the imperial court!
Sitting in the carriage, Ms. Cao said unconvinced: "Huh! I know that old witch looks down on our natal family! Doesn't she just think that she is a waiting wife? So what? Our Cao family now has a brother, as long as he
If you can achieve great military exploits this time, you will definitely be awarded a title! By then, I will see who will take our Cao family seriously!"
Su Lian's eyes flashed slightly, and she felt the same, "Mother is right! That Su Xiyue is already a motherless child, but why does she get so many people's attention? Isn't it because she has a powerful person?
A powerful uncle? If her uncle and aunt hadn't supported her, wouldn't all the dowry have been in her mother's hands?"
"That's right! That little swordsman has made it clear that he is taking advantage of the power of General Weiyuan's Mansion! When our uncle returns in triumph one day, he will be sealed with an even more powerful and imposing figure. I don't think he will make that little swordsman mad to death!" Su Yu bit.
Teeth said.
Mrs. Cao smiled proudly, "I wonder if the killer will keep an eye on her when the little swordsman goes out today?"
When Su Yu heard this, a sinister smile immediately appeared on his face, "Do you need to say this? The killer has taken other people's money, so he has to do something, right? If it doesn't work once, kill twice! Take someone else's money.
Money helps people eliminate disasters! You have to kill this little swordsman before you can explain to the financial owner!"
Ms. Cao nodded, "I heard what I said last time, that killer is really powerful! But I don't know if he can kill her smoothly this time?"
No one noticed that there was a flash of pride in Su Lian's eyes, and at the same time, there was also a deep reluctance! Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, not sure if it was because of pride or fear! Those eyelashes were like butterfly shadows
, slightly upward, making her eyes even brighter and more lively! If someone looks closely, they will find that there is a flash of fear in her eyes!
At three o'clock in the morning, Su Xiyue and her aunt were sipping tea together on the back hill of Mitsui Temple. Looking from a distance, they looked like mother and daughter, warm and harmonious, which made people enviable.
"Miss, what you expected is indeed correct. Our carriage was targeted by someone. Not far out, we were intercepted by a killer!"
"Everyone is dead?" Su Xiyue frowned. She didn't like scenes that were too bloody, let alone someone dying for her!
"Back to Miss, the killer seemed to have a very clear purpose. He came directly towards Miss. After finding that the carriage was empty, he left directly. Two of our people were injured, but the others are safe."
Listening to Liangchen's report, Su Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief. "The man found that the carriage was empty, so he would definitely turn back to the temple. It seems that he will not give up until he kills me!"
Liangchen bit his lip and said, "Miss, it's too dangerous here. You and your uncle, you'd better leave as soon as possible!"
Su Xiyue shook her head, "Liangchen, please send your aunt back first!"
Liangchen and Mrs. Li said at the same time, "No!"
She didn't want to, but Su Xiyue smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, aunt. Only if you leave will things be easier to handle! Don't worry, I will be fine! Liangchen, you forgot that I still have my father by my side.
Here’s a team of secret guards!”
Only then did Liangchen remember that the master had sent a group of secret guards to her side, so he nodded, helped Mrs. Li, and went down the mountain.
Meimei was a little confused, "Miss, why don't you leave? What if our secret guard is no match for that person?"
"You're right! Maybe, it's really not the case!" Su Xiyue turned around, looked at the extremely empty valley, and said softly.
After hearing this, Meimei was secretly anxious! "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why don't you want to go back?"
Su Xiyue took a deep breath, stretched out her hand and said, "Beautiful view, give me a hand."
"Yes, miss."
Su Xiyue put her hand gently on Mingmei's forearm and closed her eyes gently. After a while, when she opened her eyes again, Su Xiyue's face was already full of tears!
"Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Xiyue shook her head and stood quietly like this without saying anything! She could only look at the beautiful scenery and worry about the young lady!
She didn't know how long it had passed, but Su Xiyue gently wiped her tears with a handkerchief. She heard multiple sounds of weapons being unsheathed, and she knew he was coming!
The man wearing a curtain hat said coldly: "Get out of the way! Otherwise, you will die together with her!"
One of the secret guards said: "Stop talking nonsense, if you want to kill Miss, kill us first!"
The man's body seemed to be filled with coldness and coldness, which seemed to be even heavier! Even Su Xiyue, who was farthest away, seemed to be aware of his violent aura!
Su Xiyue's lips parted slightly, she turned around slowly and said, "Step back."
Mei Mei was stunned, "Miss! He is a top killer! Do you want your life?"
Su Xiyue's voice sounded again. This time, it was full of majesty and momentum, leaving no room for doubt! "Step back!"
The secret guards didn't know what the lady meant, so they all retreated to the left and right sides of the lady, still on full alert, staring at the killer!
Su Xiyue took two steps forward, leaving the secret guards behind. She moved her lips slightly but made no sound. But the meaning of that lip movement was clearly visible to the killer!
The killer took a few steps back, as if in disbelief. Looking at the person in front of him, his hands trembled slightly.
Su Xiyue's face softened slightly, "In exchange, as long as you tell me to give up the business of killing me, then I will tell you what you want to know."
The killer seemed to have no hesitation and nodded gently. Sheathed the sword in his hand!
The back hill of Mitsui Temple was empty, with only two people sitting there quietly sipping tea. One was Su Xiyue, and the other was the man who wanted to assassinate her that day!
The beautiful scenery has faded away, and a group of secret guards have long since disappeared.
"Are you okay?" After a long time, the man's deep voice sounded. Although he was cold, he could still hear some concern in his words.
"Well. I came here two months ago." Su Xiyue smiled bitterly, "You know? I often dream about you. I always believe that you are still alive like me! Unexpectedly, our meeting was actually
So strange!”
The man chuckled a few times, his expression slightly strange, and his smile was not very obvious.
Su Xiyue raised her eyes to look at him. The man's face was cold and sharp. "An Ye, how could you become a killer?"
