I traveled through time with my best friend.

"We work so well together. I use poison and you kill people. It's perfect. What could go wrong?"

Lin Yiyi threw the sword aside in disdain and wiped the blood off her hands. Jiang Xue took out a handkerchief and handed it to Lin Yiyi, saying, "Here, wipe it."

"Yeah." Lin Yiyi took it and started wiping it slowly.

Jiang Xue looked at Yu'er who was lying on the ground, squatted down and said: "Even if you don't tell me, I can find out who wants to kill me. They are all people around King Cheng. As for you..."

Yu'er reached out to Jiang Xue randomly, grabbed the corner of Jiang Xue's clothes, and said weakly: "Where... is he?"

Jiang Xue smiled, then helped Yu'er up and whispered in her ear, "He has been killed by you, but you will see him soon."

After hearing this, Yu'er grabbed the corner of Jiang Xue's clothes tightly, suddenly laughed, and then slowly let go of the corner of Jiang Xue's clothes, let her hands drop, and closed her eyes.

Lin Yiyi looked over and asked, "Is she dead?"

Jiang Xue put Yu'er down, stood up and said, "Well, we shouldn't stay here for long, let's leave first."

"it is good."

Just after the two of them rowed away, the flower boat slowly began to float on the lake. Two men in black suddenly appeared on the boat. After making sure that Yu'er was really dead, they threw her body into the lake without hesitation.

Return to Jiang's house.

The two sisters began to review what happened tonight.

After taking a shower, they put on clean undershirts and sat cross-legged on the bed with a plate of candied fruits beside them, and began to talk.

When Lin Yiyi heard that Jiang Xue was poisoned, she immediately asked with concern: "Why did she get poisoned for no reason?"

"Oh, it's okay, Xiaodu, I drank it on purpose."

"Has Lord Pei resolved his doubts about you now?" Lin Yiyi asked while chewing candied fruit.

Jiang Xue threw the sunflower seed shells she had cracked into an empty plate beside her, clapped her hands and said, "It should have been resolved."

Lin Yiyi nodded with relief, "That's good, it's worth your effort."

Jiang Xue smiled and said, "Tell me about you, how are you doing?"

Lin Yiyi put down the candied fruit and began to speak seriously, "After I came out of the room, I was about to go up to the third floor, but a man stopped me. Oh, right."

Lin Yiyi leaned forward and said, "I also met Wang Ziyan, and he saved me."

Jiang Xue didn't pay attention to Wang Ziyan, she just asked, "What happened to that guy later?"

"I guess we will have no descendants in the future." Lin Yiyi said casually.

Jiang Xue scratched Lin Yiyi's small nose lovingly, "You, I knew you wouldn't let that guy go, what happened next."

"Later... I took advantage of the chaos and went up to the third floor, and happened to run into Miss Han and a man in black."

"Man in black?" Jiang Xue frowned.

Lin Yiyi nodded, "Yes, the black-clothed man's martial arts skills are very strong. I only heard two sentences before he discovered me."

"What did they say?"

Lin Yiyi tried hard to recall, and then said: "I seemed to hear them talking about some soldiers and horses, and some treasure map."

Jiang Xue lowered her eyes and pondered, "What is the relationship between Pei Zhijin and Miss Han that I saw today? Why did Miss Han meet a man in black again?"

After Lin Yiyi finished speaking, she picked up the candied fruit and started eating it. As she ate, she said, "Anyway, I feel it's very chaotic, and there are probably undercurrents in Anzhou. It's not very peaceful."

Jiang Xue stroked her chin with one hand and began to analyze the situation seriously. "It seems that this Miss Han is not that simple."

“It wasn’t simple in the first place.” Lin Yiyi continued, “After I discovered me, the man in black chased me, and Miss Han knocked herself unconscious.”

Jiang Xueliu frowned even more, "These women are so cruel!" Then she looked at Yiyi and said, "Then how did you get caught by Yu'er?"

After hearing this, Lin Yiyi drank a sip of tea angrily and said, "Don't mention it. Yu'er looked like a ghost. She suddenly appeared in front of me in red at night. I was not paying attention and was scared. She took the opportunity to kidnap me. But it's good that I was not caught by the man in black."

Jiang Xue nodded in agreement, "Yu'er is indeed scary." Then she lay down, "But she is also a pitiful person."

Lin Yiyi lay beside Jiang Xue and said, "There must be something hateful about pitiful people." Then she turned to look at Jiang Xue who had her eyes closed and said, "Xue'er, in addition to the people sent by King Cheng, he will definitely arrange for more people to come later. What are our plans for the future?"

Jiang Xue closed her eyes and said calmly, "From now on, we will rely on the protection of Master Pei."

"You said we should follow Master Pei?"

"That's right." Jiang Xue opened her eyes. "King Cheng has too much power. If we don't find someone to protect us, we will probably end up running around in a miserable state."

"Pei Zhijin is just a minister. How can he defeat a prince?" Lin Yiyi asked doubtfully.

Jiang Xue shook her head and denied, "No, no, no, Pei Zhijin has the emperor behind him. As long as the emperor is on the throne, we are safe."

"I see." Lin Yiyi nodded, not quite understanding.

Jiang Xue put the candied fruit plate on the bedside table and said, "It's getting late, go to bed."

"it is good."

The two blew out the candles and prepared to go to bed.

Anren County.

Hongying was dressed in red, sitting in the pavilion drinking wine. When she heard her subordinates report that Yu'er was dead, she put down the wine in her hand and raised the corner of her mouth with disdain, "Men, none of them are reliable. But she still doesn't believe it. It's better for her to be dead. We in Fengyun Tower don't need women whose minds are full of men."

Mo Cang beside him had a complex look in his eyes after hearing this, and then he said, "Owner, it's getting late, take a rest."

Hongying pushed the wine on the stone table, stood up and said, "Well, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll go back to Fengyun Tower first."

"Yes." Mo Cang bowed respectfully.

Then, he saw a streak of red in front of him quickly disappearing into the darkness. Mo Cang looked up, but the streak of red had disappeared.

The subordinate standing outside the pavilion said, "Master Mo Cang, are you still going to kill Miss Jiang?"

Mo Cang's eyebrows slightly frowned. He didn't want Hong Ying to have anything to do with King Cheng, so he said, "Withdraw the people and continue to search for the whereabouts of the Wuji Pearl."

"Yes."

The next day.

Jiang Xue and Lin Yiyi were woken up by their grandmother early in the morning to have breakfast. They sat at the table listlessly. Rong Lian knocked on the table, and they immediately perked up.

Jiang Xue said sadly: "Grandma, we are really not hungry."

"You have to eat even if you're not hungry." Rong Lian picked up a crystal shrimp dumpling for each of them and said with a smile: "Try it. After dinner, I'll have someone take you to Anzhou for a stroll. There is a lake in Anzhou that is comparable to the Ye Lake in Beijing, except that there are fewer lotus flowers. But it is still a beautiful sight."

Jiang Xue looked at Lin Yiyi after hearing this. Lin Yiyi looked at her and said, "Could it be the lake last night?"
