Winter nights come quickly, with cool breeze blowing and rustling the leaves. There is no moonlight in the night sky, only dark clouds. It seems difficult to see the bright moonlight and sparkling stars on winter nights, and some are just dark.
a piece of.
Mu Tianxue seemed to be accustomed to standing in front of the window lattice, looking at the sky outside the window, hearing the rustling of the leaves in the wind, and her eyes seemed to be able to see through the night and see the end of the sky.
A pair of hands wrapped around her waist from behind, and gently pressed his handsome face against her brocade-like hair. A pleasant voice came to her ears, "Xue'er..."
After hearing the gentle voice, Mu Tianxue raised her lips, turned to look at Long Chen and smiled lightly, wrapping her arms around his waist, placing her hand against his chest, closing her eyes slightly, and said: "Also...if
, the man Yue'er captured is a close confidant of the emperor, what are you going to do with him?"
Long Chen also stroked her hair gently, with deep tenderness in his eyes. It seemed that what he was holding in his arms was his most precious treasure. He couldn't bear to let go for a moment, "It's up to you to decide how to deal with it. After all, you can't let it go."
He came back alive."
"Your father hates me so much. The assassins he sent have failed many times. In order to kill me, he will definitely recruit me back to the capital within a few days." Mu Tianxue sighed silently. The emperor now hated her deeply.
, he will not give up until he kills her. If he cannot wait for the news of her death, he will definitely send her back to the capital for various reasons in the near future. It is better to deal with her under his nose than at Wolong Villa.
Easy to deal with.
"With your husband here, I will protect you. It's not that easy for my father to touch you." Long Chen also said comfortingly. He knew best that in order to maintain the father-son relationship between them, his father would not do anything.
If he attacks Mu Tianxue openly, he will only secretly send someone to assassinate Mu Tianxue.
Although he knew that those killers were secretly sent by his father, he did not confront his father. On the surface, both of them were trying their best to maintain the relationship between father and son, but secretly, they acted differently.
, no one will pierce this layer of window paper.
"I'm not afraid that the emperor will be unfavorable to me. I'm afraid that the fear and gap between you and your father will become bigger and bigger. If it goes on for a long time, he will have a different heart towards you." Mu Tianxue raised his head and looked at
He looked at him and said seriously: "Your strength as the leader of the martial arts alliance is enough to threaten the imperial court. If you continue to go against your father everywhere, you will make your father think that you have..."
Mu Tianxue didn't say her "unruly intentions", but after thinking about it, Long Chen also understood what she said. Since ancient times, emperors have punished those who threaten the throne and the court for treason and usurping the throne.
The emperor's family is the most ruthless. They only have a prominent status but no family ties like that of a common people's family. In order to compete for the position of the nine kings, brothers plot against each other. In order to stabilize the throne, the emperor can kill his own flesh and blood with his own hands.
Mu Tianxue didn't know much about the current emperor, but from the fact that he led troops to conquer the world and sent people to assassinate her, it can be seen that this emperor's strength and domineering power will never tolerate anyone.
People who overstep their bounds endanger his throne. Even if the person who oversteps is his most beloved son, he will not hesitate to get rid of him.
Moreover, Long Chenyi's strength has endangered him. Even if Long Chenyi has no evil intentions in the end, the emperor will find a way to strip him of his strength and eradicate his dissent.
"Xue'er, don't think too much." Long Chen also placed a gentle kiss on her forehead and said: "I can throw away my position as the leader of the martial arts alliance at any time. These are just false names, nothing to worry about, for my husband's sake
I will take care of it, so you can rest assured and be a good wife to your husband."
After Long Chen finished speaking, he cast his gaze out the window. How could he not have known that his father had already been wary of him? He had never been interested in the lofty throne. He became the leader of the martial arts alliance at the request of his father.
We need the forces of Jianghu to guard the Longdu Dynasty.
But after he became the leader of the alliance, his father no longer took precautions against other countries invading the dynasty, but instead focused on him. He had already intended to take off his identity as the leader of the alliance.
This time, if he is sent back to the palace, he will definitely hand over the alliance leader's token to his father. In this case, he will be a life-threatening alliance leader and cannot summon martial arts people, so he will have no big influence on the court.
threaten.
If possible, he would rather live in seclusion in the mountains and forests with his beloved, not asking about the affairs of the world or the court, and just live a life without fighting against the world.
"It would be great if one day we could find a place outside the world, without caring about worldly affairs or disputes. It would be just you, me, and our children, and we could live a life without fighting against the world."
Mu Tianxue leaned on his chest and said quietly with her eyes closed. Maybe she wouldn't have such thoughts before, but now that she has someone she cares about and a baby, she just wants to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests.
A life without strife and killing.
In the 21st century, she lived in killing, stepped on blood, and dealt with death. She never thought about how she would go in the future. She never thought that she would find someone she liked, quit the world of killers, and live an ordinary life.
Life.
But now, she doesn't want to live in killing, she just wants to live a life where she can win the heart of one person and stay together forever.
"Yes, there will be a day." Long Chen also patted her back and said secretly, Xue'er, my husband promised you that I will definitely give you the happiness you want.
"Master, Lin Yue'er has tied up someone and has entered the villa."
At this time, Hongyi hurriedly came back to report.
"Bring this person to the main hall," Long Chen also ordered in a cold voice.
"Yes, Master" Hongyi responded, turned around and left.
"Let's go! I also want to see who my father will send to carry out this assassination mission." Long Chen also let go of Mu Tianxue, walked to the bed, picked up the cloak, tied it on her, and then led her to the
Go to the main hall.
After receiving the order, Lin Yue'er brought the arrested person to the main hall. When she saw Mu Tianxue and Long Chenyi, she knelt down and said respectfully: "Master, my subordinates have tied up the person who paid for the murder of the master.
return."
Long Chen also glanced at the various tied men with black cloths covering their eyes, and said coldly: "Take off all the black cloths on his eyes and the cloth gagging his mouth."
"Yes." After hearing this, Lin Yue'er untied the cloth covering the man's eyes and the cloth covering his mouth, then brought a basin of water and pressed the man's head into the ice water to wake him up.
"Ah...well" the man choked awake due to the coldness and struggled to get his head out of the water. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Long Chenyi and Mu Tianxue sitting in the main hall. The man trembled all over and thought to himself.
, dead, he hurriedly knelt down and said in horror: "In this humble position, please see the Sixth Prince."
"Hmph..." Long Chenyi snorted coldly, looked at the people in the hall coldly, and said: "Who do I think I am? Isn't this Commander Wu of the Royal Forest Army?"
"Yes... yes... a humble position." Wu Qi shivered and knelt on the ground. He never expected that he would be caught in Wolong Villa. He thought that the killer who sneaked into Wolong Villa had already killed Mu Tianxue, so he
After being contacted by him, the killer who was sent in unexpectedly made a counterattack and was poisoned by the incense. Now that he entered Wolong Villa, he had only one way to die.
"Commander Wu, I don't know what the deep hatred between the Sixth Princess and you is, so you are asked to mobilize all your troops and spare no effort to send all the assassins to assassinate the Sixth Princess?"
Mu Tianxue's sharp eyes stared coldly at Wu Qi, who was kneeling and trembling.
"Even if I have a hundred heads in my humble position, I would not dare to assassinate the Sixth Princess. Please tell me from the Sixth Prince." Wu Qi lowered his head and his face was extremely pale. Without concrete evidence, he would never admit that he sent someone to assassinate her.
The Sixth Princess, the little girl who caught him is just relying on words and no evidence.
"So Commander Wu was wrongly accused."
Mu Tianxue's cold eyes revealed a sinister and terrifying look, and her cold voice seemed like the sound of death coming from hell, making everyone else in the hall tremble and panic.
"Master, he is the one who paid double the price for his subordinates to come and take the master's life." After hearing Mu Tianxue's cold voice, Lin Yue'er trembled all over, knelt down and replied in horror, for fear that Mu Tianxue wouldn't believe it.
This person is the one who paid for the murder, and she suspects that she randomly arrested someone and came back to deal with him.
