Save the tragic villain in progress!

Yuhen Pavilion is the most closely guarded place in the entire General Mansion except Xie Jingyuan's residence.The moonlight is dim tonight, and the edges of the glazed tiles glow with a bleak light.The fairy beasts standing on the four corners of the eaves looked at the moon, but only a black silhouette remained.

Jiu Yong keenly sensed something unusual, he clenched the sword around his waist, and patrolled the door tirelessly.At this moment, he didn't know what he found, and he suddenly stopped, a cold light flashed in his eyes, he picked up a piece of gravel and hit the treetops in the east.

"sieve--"

Something landed quietly in the darkness and flapped twice.The government soldiers ran forward to check, only to find that it was a night crow, its wings were still fluttering: "My lord, it's a bird."

Jiuyong's voice was cold: "Continue to patrol."

Xie Jingyuan gave the order to die, and those who dared to step into Yuhen Pavilion half a step would kill without mercy.Whether it is a human or an animal, Jiuyong treats it equally.

Just now, three spies sent by Jin Wang's mansion have broken into here, but it's a pity that they were killed by Jiuyong on the spot before they even got to the door.He didn't need to torture those people or anything, since he was sent out, he must be a dead man, so he didn't have to do useless work.

The bloodstains on the ground were still wet, silently revealing what happened just now.

However, Jiuyong took all precautions, but unexpectedly, an unexpected guest came to Yuhen Pavilion.

"The general has an order that if anyone dares to enter this place, they will be killed without mercy—"

Jiu Yong stared at Chu Xinian who came late at night, and the long sword at his waist was unsheathed with a clang, and the sword edge flashed coldly, and it directly touched his neck.

"Bold! How dare you be rude to my son!" Seeing him draw his sword, Yunque stepped forward to block Chu Xinian, glaring at Jiuyong.

Jiu Yong ignored him, and stared straight at Chu Xinian, as if looking at a dead object: "One step closer, it doesn't matter if you shoot or kill."

Chu Xinian was holding a white silk lantern in his hand. For some reason, it was extremely bright, illuminating the bluestone ground.He turned a blind eye to the sword on his neck, smiled, and raised his fingers to separate: "You want to kill me?"

Because of his status, Jiuyong was very wary, and his heart was on guard with 12 points: "I am ordered by the general to guard this place, and no one else is allowed to enter."

Skylark snorted: "Since your general has married our son, it is good in-laws, so how can he be regarded as someone else? The general is your master, and our son is naturally your master. Why, you don't even know what the master said. Stop listening?"

Jiu Yong sneered: "What a sharp mouth, if you don't believe me, take a step forward and see if I dare to kill you."

Yunque's momentum weakened for a moment when she heard the words, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at Chu Xinian, only to see that he had already lit a lantern and walked straight into the courtyard.It was too late to say it, and then it was too late, Jiuyong threw the long sword in his hand, and it sank into Chu Xinian's feet with a whoosh.

"..."

Chu Xinian finally stopped in his tracks, turned around and looked at the crowd waiting in formation around him, smiled like a breeze and bright moon, and said slowly: "I have been in the General's Mansion for a few days, but I haven't visited here yet, why, can't I enter? "

Jiuyong led the people forward, feeling more and more that he was a spy, and pulled out the long sword from the ground with his backhand, his voice was cold: "Of course not."

If Chu Xinian takes one step closer, he will show no mercy.

Chu Xinian lowered his eyes faintly, and turned the handle of the lantern. There seemed to be a small piece of paper hidden in his sleeve, but he couldn't see it clearly.He smiled to himself: "Master Jiuyong is guarding me like a thief, what if I let the real robbers in?"

His words concealed a deep meaning, and before Jiuyong understood the meaning, Yunque suddenly pointed at the window and exclaimed: "There is someone inside!"

Jiu Yong looked subconsciously, but saw a black shadow flashing across the window quickly, his face changed drastically, and he couldn't care about Chu Xinian anymore, and immediately led his people to break through the door and rush in.

There was a stone hidden in Yunque's fingertips, and the moment Jiuyong rushed in, it hit the window frame directly.There was only a bang, and the window opened in response, as if the thief just broke through the window and escaped.

The lamp was turned on in the dark room, and the inner room was unobstructed.Jiu Yong rushed in, saw the window was wide open, and was misled by the illusion, immediately sent out a team to track it down, while he himself quickly checked whether the things inside were missing.

Yunque stood outside, with a nervous expression, subconsciously looked at Chu Xinian: "My lord, what shall we do next?"

Chu Xinian calmly blew out the lantern in his hand, tore up the humanoid paper and threw it into it.What to do next?Naturally, it would be better for them to go back to the house, but they were afraid that someone would not let them go.

"stop!"

Sure enough, they were stopped by the guards before taking two steps.

Chu Xinian had expected that he would not be able to get away, and there was a robbery in Yuhen Pavilion just now, and they happened to be here, so the suspicion was too great.Said to Skylark: "No problem, we will stay here."

Nobody knows what he's up to.

How could Xie Jingyuan not be alarmed by such a big incident.However, when he came in a hurry late at night, he saw Chu Xinian standing in the courtyard, remembering that someone had passed on the news that an assassin had broken in, his face was slightly gloomy for a moment.

He clenched his fingertips silently, wondering what he was thinking, and walked up to Chu Xinian with a calm voice that sent chills down the spine: "Why are you here?"

Xie Jingyuan remembered what he said to the prince today, and his eyelids twitched.Unable to explain why, a nameless dark fire suddenly rose in my heart.

Chu Xinian still had that calm look, as if everything was under control.He frowned, looking a little worried: "I couldn't sleep at night, so I wanted to go out for a walk. Who would have thought that I would be regarded as a thief, General, I am really... wronged."

The last two words are very light, with a bit of rambling, as if they are not saying "wronged", but "very good".

Of course, Xie Jingyuan would not believe Chu Xinian's one-sided words.His eyes under the mask were empty and dark, and he couldn't see the bottom at a glance.The corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he slowly pulled out a cruel arc, and asked in a low voice in Chu Xinian's ear, "Are you sure the thief is not you?"

The breath is cold.

Chu Xinian was taken aback deliberately: "The general is doubting me?"

Xie Jingyuan is now like a bloodthirsty snake, staring at its prey. If the other party makes a slight movement, he will kill him with one blow, and said word by word: "It's better not you."

After saying this, he turned and walked into Yuhen Pavilion.Jiuyong ordered everyone to leave, closed the door, whispered in Xie Jingyuan's ear, recounted what happened just now, and finally concluded with a frown: "General, you must have something to do with them."

Xie Jingyuan didn't answer, he went to the antique stand and turned one of the vases, and there was a light sound from the floor tiles under the desk.He leaned over to open the hidden compartment, took out a stack of papers, glanced roughly, and said coldly: "The things are still there."

Jiuyong: "The assassin escaped so fast just now, he probably didn't have time to find the mechanism."

Xie Jingyuan put the things back as they were, and slowly wiped the dust on his fingertips with a handkerchief, calmly: "Have you ever seen what he looks like?"

Jiuyong shook his head: "I haven't seen it, but none of the servants that Chu Xinian brought from Quyanghou's Mansion have changed."

"Looking for—" Xie Jingyuan only said this word.

He turned and walked out the door, the black wind cloak brushed over the threshold, making a slight rustling sound.Xie Jingyuan pressed his fist to his lips, let out a sickly low cough, closed his eyes and said slowly: "It's better to kill by mistake than to let go."

Jiu Yong looked outside the courtyard: "Then Chu Xinian..."

"I'll check."

After Xie Jingyuan finished speaking, he walked straight towards the man in white in the courtyard, then slowly stopped and stopped in front of him.He was laughing lowly, but the happier he laughed, the more serious the consequences.

Xie Jingyuan said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Chu Xinian, let me ask you one last time, why are you here?"

Chu Xinian didn't speak, he seemed to be doing a lot of suspicious actions on purpose, and then asked back after a while: "The general is doubting me?"

Xie Jingyuan stared at him closely, the mask on his face was icy cold, and the shadow cast on the wall divided the whole person into two halves: "So what if it is? So what if it is not?"

"No matter what, if the general really doubts me, he can deal with it anyway. If you want to kill me, you can do whatever you want."

When Chu Xinian said this, his smile slowly faded away, and he looked rare silent and quiet.He took out a stack of paper books from his sleeve, which were filled with dense words.

"I saw that the general was troubled by an old illness, and he was becoming more and more uneasy. I was worried that someone might poison him, so I checked the decorations in the house. Who would have thought that it was related to the green stalk tree outside..."

Every time he said a word, Xie Jingyuan's face changed, and finally the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually disappeared, turning gloomy and frightening.

Chu Xinian paused, and continued: "However, I'm not sure whether the root is really here. I heard that the general used to live in Yuhen Pavilion, so I wanted to see if there were also Bistem trees planted here, but it turned out to be Misunderstood and became an assassin..."

As the breeze blew, the shadows of the trees swayed, and the Bistem tree planted in the courtyard silently dropped many unknown black fruits, rolling to the ground.

After Chu Xinian finished speaking, he sighed, his voice was low, and he seemed to be really chilling: "I know the general has always been suspicious, and suspected that I am a member of King Jin. But I don't care about party disputes, I just want to live a good life with the general. It's delusional."

After he finished speaking, he handed the stack of papers in his hand to Xie Jingyuan who was in a daze, and forced a smile: "But I still hope that this thing can cure the poison on the general. Well, I have no complaints."

Chu Xinian has always been a person with a smile like a cloud, when has he ever been in such an abnormal mood.Skylark stood aside, buried his head deeply, not even daring to make a sound.

Jiu Yong frowned and said anxiously: "General, you must not listen to his bewitching—"

Xie Jingyuan raised his hand to interrupt him, and said coldly: "Go, invite Doctor Wan."

He was holding the stack of papers in his hand, almost smashing it.If what Chu Xinian said is true, then Xie Jingyuan has been an idiot for a year in vain, and he was almost poisoned to death without knowing it.

Xie Jingyuan's face was ugly, seeing that Jiuyong was not moving, he reprimanded in a sullen voice: "Hurry up!"

My heart, which had been tense just now, relaxed for some reason.

Hearing the words, Jiuyong had to take the order to invite the doctor, but when he passed by Yunque, he saw the dead girl making a face at him.He didn't get angry, but he could only grit his teeth and bear it.

As soon as Jiu Yong led the people away, the courtyard was mostly empty.

Chu Xinian didn't care about the dust on the ground, he lifted his robe and sat on the floor, under the shade of a large green stalk tree above his head.He casually picked up a black fruit that fell on the ground, and said to himself: "General, please don't believe me, I am an assassin, not only want to steal the general's secrets, but also kill the general, huh? "

He finished speaking and smiled.There is no moon tonight, Chu Xinian is dressed in white, but it is far brighter than the full moon in the sky.

Xie Jingyuan read ten lines at a glance, and hurriedly read his "experimental draft", and his heart was already half-believed.He squatted down in front of Chu Xinian, and asked inexplicably, "You came here late at night just to test for drugs?"

"No." Chu Xinian shook his sleeves and slowly shook his head, "I came to steal the secrets of the general's mansion, but I was caught by Jiuyong, the general had better kill me on the spot to avoid endless troubles. "

Xie Jingyuan frowned when he heard the words, narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and said in an angry voice, "Chu Xinian, you really think I'm reluctant to kill you, don't you?"

Can't bear to...?

When Chu Xinian heard these three words, he frowned suspiciously, but he didn't get too entangled in the meaning of the words, and quickly put them to the back of his mind: "If you want to kill the general, just kill him. I will never fight back. Anyway, even if you survive, you will die." All that remains is to be suspected, what if another assassin falls on me again in the future."

Xie Jingyuan concluded that in terms of lip service, he was definitely no match for Chu Xinian.

Seeing that he was not moving, Chu Xinian smiled: "Will the general not be killed? If not, then I will go back first."

After speaking, he got up from under the tree, brushed off the dust on his body, and walked towards the outside of the arch.

Xie Jingyuan was relieved to see that he didn't continue to mess around, but before he had time to say anything, he heard Chu Xinian lightly order Yunque: "Go, pack your things, and go back to Quyang Houfu."

Xie Jingyuan: "..."
