After traveling through time, the four best friends were all targeted by the boss

"And you and Pei Xuanxi just got married." Xia Nian said again.

"Yeah..." Xu Zheng lowered her eyes and murmured.

"Why are you all so dejected? We still need to discuss this with them. We'll be out in a while and come back in the evening." Meng Yin said, "Also, it's best to do this in detail so that they don't notice anything."

She said this with no confidence, because no matter how perfectly she did it, they would definitely find out something.

"Then when are we going out?" Tao Tao asked.

With a few clicks, Xia Nian cut out four maps. She wrapped them in a cloth she had prepared in advance and put them in her sleeves.

"They are just going to look for the jade slips today, let's go."

"it is good."

-

The best disguise is no disguise. When they went out, they did not see the three people. With Xu Zheng there, no one dared to say anything along the way.

It was almost evening, and they walked outside for a while. On the way to the temple fair, Xia Nian passed by a fair-skinned girl. She felt a sudden shock in her heart, and when she turned her head to look, the girl had already walked onto the bridge.

"What's wrong, Nian Nian?" Seeing her standing there without moving, the three of them stopped.

"It's okay, I just saw someone, and she felt so familiar for some reason." Xia Nian frowned, and the girl was no longer in his sight.

"Let's go quickly."

On the other side of the river, Han Liuyi rushed into the alley. She was breathing slightly, leaning against the wall and gently stroking her chest.

"Tsk, what am I afraid of?" She mocked herself mercilessly. Even though she had changed her appearance, she was still worried about being exposed.

She looked at the direction the four people left, breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and disappeared into the alley.

"Mess up your hair to disguise yourself." The four of them squatted by the stream and reached out to pull off the hairpins on their heads.

The three of them did as they were told. Xu Zheng was the main force. She tore her skirt several times, making traces of a fight.

Xia Nian hugged the bag tightly and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, A Zheng, are you sure no one followed us just now?"

"Sure, it seems like they were talking about the jade slip. A'yan and the others should have gone to get some information." Xu Zheng said.

"That's good, let's go." Xia Nian nodded. In fact, she knew that this plan was full of loopholes, but there was really no other way. She could only hand the map to them and find the jade slip first.

In the Wanxiang Tower, the three people who went to look for the jade slip returned early because Ah Shuo found out that the place was not the so-called royal tomb, but a mass grave.

When he came back, Pei Xuanxi had finished dealing with all his affairs and met them when he came out to look for Xu Zheng.

Yesterday's wedding banquet was a grand occasion. The other three heirs were all present. They also performed a show of deep brotherly love, allowing those people to see that the four major families now have profound financial resources, which are unfathomable and indestructible.

This afternoon, a lot of letters and gifts were suddenly delivered to him one after another. He had been reading them in his study until now, and they were all flattering without exception.

"Is the news in the jade slip false?" Pei Xuanxi asked.

"Yes." Xiahou Yu dismounted and was about to say it was a rumor when he heard a horrified voice behind him.

"Owner! Something has happened to the lady and the three girls! They are in the lobby now!" the boy shouted, his teeth chattering.

He was halfway through his words when the four of them had already run outside, all with anxious looks on their faces. How come something bad happened after they had only been out for half a day?!

With a bang, the door was kicked open mercilessly, and they saw four people sitting on the chairs, looking very tired.

Seeing them so anxious, Meng Yin and Xia Nian were still okay, but Tao Tao and Xu Zheng felt a little sorry.

"Atao, what happened?" Yiqing squatted in front of Tao Tao, his eyes moving back and forth over her.

Fortunately, apart from looking a little pale, there were no visible wounds on Tao Tao.

"Pei Xuanxi! Why didn't you send anyone to follow them when they went out? And something happened in your Xuanwu City!" Yi Qing breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and began to blame Pei Xuanxi.

"No, A-Qing!" Tao Tao didn't expect him to get angry so quickly, and quickly pulled him back, "When we left, Master Pei was still dealing with things, so he didn't know."

Pei Xuanxi was not angry. He also thought it was his own fault. Especially when he saw that Xu Zheng even tore her skirt, he felt even more regretful.

"A Zheng, what happened?" Pei Xuanxi sat down beside her and stroked the back of her hand with his fingers.

She was still not feeling well, who hurt her?

"It's...Han Liuyi." Xu Zheng said slowly, and his eyes unconsciously drifted to Xia Nian.

Xia Nian naturally took over the conversation and said, "We finished visiting the temple fair and it was already dark. When we came back, we saw a person standing on the bridge."

Her expression was calm, as if she was telling a story.

"She noticed us and looked back." Xia Nian looked around at the group. "At first I didn't think much of it, but when she saw us from a distance, she ran away. Only then did we realize that she was Han Liuyi."

"Yes, she might be afraid that we would notice something, so she ran away as soon as she saw us." Meng Yin said. She looked directly into Gu Ling's eyes without feeling guilty at all.

Didn't Han Liuyi play enough tricks on them before? Even A Zheng was bitten by a snake in order to save her. So what if they took advantage of her now?

"We immediately chased her. She was hit by a hidden weapon in A Zheng's hand. We couldn't defeat her at first, but her accomplices came out unexpectedly. Fortunately, they didn't get entangled with us, and we even got this."

After Xia Nian finished speaking, he took out the map from his sleeve.

Xiahou Yu took it, opened it, looked at Xia Nian suspiciously, and then unfolded the map completely.

"Ayin, is this true?" Gu Ling asked.

"Of course it's true. Would we lie to you about something like this?" Meng Yin's face was full of disbelief. She used her acting skills to the extreme and tears were about to fall as she spoke.

Gu Ling immediately hugged her in his arms and said softly, "I'm sorry, Ayin, I don't mean to doubt you, it's just..."

He didn't say anything else and glanced at the other three people. It seemed that they had the same doubts as he did.

No matter how perfect Xia Nian's performance was, the story still sounded suspicious.

It was night when they met Han Liuyi. There was no one else around the four of them. Only Xu Zheng knew martial arts. Why did she run away?

Han Liuyi's martial arts skills are not as good as Xu Zheng's, but since she has accomplices here, and Han Liuyi knows that the other three don't know martial arts, why didn't she continue to fight with them, but instead chose to escape and even lost things?

Pei Xuanxi pulled up Xu Zheng's sleeve and saw that he was indeed wearing the hidden weapon he had given her on his arm, which was poisoned.

"Han Liuyi must have been poisoned, so she didn't continue fighting with A Zheng." Pei Xuanxi said, barely resolving one of the doubts.

"Let's not talk about this for now, okay?" Tao Tao tugged at Yi Qing's sleeve, "Let's see what that thing is."

She spoke in a low voice. Yiqing no longer cared about the doubts in his heart. He just wanted to find the person who hurt her and cut him into pieces.

"I'll send someone to look for her now." Pei Xuanxi stood up. "She was poisoned and should still be in the city."

After saying this, without waiting for anyone's reaction, he strode away.

"Xiahou Yu, what is this picture?" Xia Nian asked.

Xiahou Yu came back to his senses, unfolded the map and placed it on the table, and several people gathered around him.

They temporarily stopped thinking about the doubts in this matter, because they subconsciously did not want to doubt the four people, and they all realized a crucial point at the same time: if the four people were lying to them, what was their reason for lying to them? What was their purpose?
