At noon on the third day, Ji Zhiya took Ruan Chuyin back to Wanchun Tower in Yangcheng for dinner, and happened to meet two cousins ​​of the Minister of Works.

Yin Hongmei and Jiang Ruofu were overjoyed and invited them to sit together.

Ji Zhiya didn't like crowds, so he just said hello, asked the waiter to put the bill on his head, and then went back to his room.

"Hatsune, your husband is so handsome! He looks like an ethereal being, like a knight-errant." Yin Hongmei exclaimed in admiration. Since ancient times, the golden boy has always been paired with the jade girl. The Crown Princess' husbands are all more handsome than the other!

Jiang Ruofu felt the same way. She had thought the Prince of Zhenbei was already handsome enough, but she hadn't expected this Young Master Ji to be even more attractive, and his clothes were impeccable. The agarwood bracelet with a gold-inlaid "Fu" character on his wrist alone was worth a fortune, not to mention the black silk belt with gold trim around his waist.

The envious expressions on their faces made Ruan Chuyin blush and stammered, "There are so many handsome men in Nanxing, you two won't have trouble finding one."

These words resonated deeply with Yin Hongmei and Jiang Ruofu. At the palace banquet, they had respectively chosen the eldest son of the Minister of Rites and the younger son of the City Gate Leader. Their third uncle and aunt had been looking for marriage partners for them these days and were planning a time for them to meet.

The three of them walked up the stairs in a warm manner. When they turned a corner, a man in blue clothes suddenly stopped after hearing someone's name.

Hatsune? Is that Ruan Hatsune?

Looking back, I saw that the figure was very similar to the one in the painting given by the princess, so I followed it quietly.

There were only three women in the Qingsong Pavilion on the third floor. Peering through the crack in the door, the woman wearing a lotus-shaped gauze sat with her back to the door. His prying gaze slowly settled on her sleeve. Just as she lifted the teapot, the man in blue suddenly spotted the bamboo-jointed glass bracelet that confirmed the identity of the figure in the painting.

A determined smile spread across his lips, then disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Half an incense stick later, the dishes were served one after another.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Do we have any other dishes that haven't been served yet?" Ruan Chuyin didn't remember that she had ordered anything else.

"I'll go and take a look." Yin Hongmei stood up and opened the door. A cold light reflected in her eyes. Before she could react, she was stabbed in the abdomen.

Blood kept oozing from the corner of her lips. Yin Hongmei held the sharp blade that had stabbed into her body tightly in her right hand, and stared with wide eyes, trying to engrave the murderer in her mind.

The black-clothed ghost-faced man suddenly drew out his sword, watched her fall calmly, and walked steadily into the elegant pavilion.

Ruan Chuyin and Jiang Ruofu were so frightened that they just let out a scream when the ghost-faced man was in front of them in the blink of an eye.

The murderous eagle eyes were stunned after seeing the true appearance of the owner of the bamboo glass bracelet. The long sword raised high hesitated for an unprecedented moment, giving the two of them a glimmer of hope to run to the inner room and lock the door.

There was only one back window in the room, and below it was a deep pool. Jiang Ruofu pulled Ruan Chuyin and was about to jump in without hesitation, but Ruan Chuyin couldn't swim, and in a hurry she instinctively broke free from her hand.

The deafening sound of a door being broken and someone falling into the water rang out simultaneously, causing her eardrums to ache and her soul to tremble. She knew in her heart that if she didn't do something, she would die in the next moment.

He gritted his teeth and climbed out of the window with his bare hands. His whole body was hanging in the air because he was in a panic and did not land firmly.

At this moment, the ghost-faced man had broken into the room, and Ruan Chuyin kept kicking her legs to get one of her embroidered shoes off.

Her snow-white calves and jade feet were helplessly exposed, and her beautiful little face turned red due to the weight of her hands.

He took a deep breath and when he looked up again, he was met with a pair of sinister eyes.

The ghost-faced man obviously hesitated, and the sharp tip of the sword did not fall.

Li Jinghe had just come of age this year and had never seen such a beautiful woman before, so he was reluctant to take action. However, he had to obey the Domain Lord's order and apologized for the first time in his life: "Miss, I'm sorry, I will try to be gentle."

After she was completely despaired, she was filled with despair for life. Ruan Chuyin completely let go and let her body fall freely.

At the critical moment, a pair of big hands held her tightly and carried her into the Accord.

Seeing this, the ghost-faced man resolutely jumped down. A few splashes of water flew into the air, and a tall figure instantly broke through the water and leaped onto the second floor.
