I survived as a female assassin

Leng Yue looked disappointed, "Do you know what it means that the Demonic Sound Twins failed to kill you?"

Oh, I forgot to ask, what happened to the Demonic Sound Twins? Will they come to kill her again?

Looking at Xin Youran's dazed expression, Leng Yue became even more furious. He clenched his fists, but finally let go.

He took a deep breath and continued, "It means that there will be more powerful assassins coming to kill you."

This was expected. "I know. You told me before! There is no retreat for [Falling Rain], only death."

Xin Youran repeated the same tone that Leng Yue had used when she said this.

"Oh, you are quite... open-minded!"

"But the fact that the old monster has taken a fancy to you can be considered a blessing in disguise. At least in this Crescent Valley, the people from [Falling Rain] won't touch you."

Xin Youran hadn't expected this and immediately became excited. "You mean to say that as long as I stay in Crescent Moon Valley, I won't be hunted by [Falling Rain] anymore?!"

"What's the reason? Is this old monster so powerful?!"

Leng Yue no longer wanted to see her silly and cute look, "You'll know when you regain your memory."

"I have something else to do. I don't have time for you. Go away."

Xin Youran: ...

Having been ordered to leave twice, didn't she have any dignity left? So she walked towards the courtyard gate reluctantly.

When she was almost at the door, Leng Yue's voice came from behind her, "Your husband has arrived in the capital. Isn't this what you wish for?"

"Stay here honestly, or you'll die without knowing how!"

Xin Youran stopped and walked out of the small courtyard without looking back.

Yes, wasn’t the original plan to send Mu Yuan back to the capital and return to his original life as a prince?

The process is not important, as long as the result is right, then the plan is completed.

She came to the Crescent Valley by accident, and at least every day she spent here could extend her life.

After the secret guards rescued Mu Yuan, they did not stay in Xiufan Temple for long. They left the temple and came to the open road, where they lit special fireworks.

Not long after, a carriage drove over and Mu Yuan was quickly put on the carriage.

"Jiyu, keep an eye on His Highness and make sure he returns to the capital before dawn!"

"Yes! I take my orders!"

Two secret guards were left on the carriage, one to drive the carriage and the other to observe Mu Yuan's situation at any time.

They experienced two waves of people along the way. The secret guards were all as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood. They were finally no longer hiding in the dark and could fight in earnest.

The journey was smooth and we finally entered the city.

General Cui Zhanting had been waiting at the city gate for a long time. The guards at the city gate had already been arranged. Under the escort of General Cui, the carriage soon arrived at a villa.

From the outside, this yard looks like an ordinary house, but it is actually quite special inside.

It is Mu Yuan’s private residence.

The carriage went straight into the gate of the mansion. It was not until the door was closed that Cui Zhanting quickly opened the horse's lid. Seeing the unconscious Mu Yuan, he was filled with worry and anger.

"Jiemie, why is His Highness unconscious? What are you secret guards doing? Who did this?"

Jiemie is the leader of the Jiying Sect, and no one has ever said this to him, but it is indeed their responsibility that His Highness is in a coma.

He lowered his head without saying a word, but held Mu Yuan and placed him on the bed.

The time the man said had come. He quickly took out the small white bottle from his chest, poured out a brown pill from it, and put it directly into Mu Yuan's mouth.

I didn't feel relieved until I saw Mu Yuan swallow the pill.

Cui Zhanting followed him all the way, watching his series of actions, and became even more angry and confused, "What on earth did you give His Highness to eat?"

"Have you tried the poison? Just feed it like that."

"If anything happens to Your Highness, I'll hold you accountable!"

Jiemie has been observing Mu Yuan's condition. He has given him the medicine, so why hasn't he woken up yet?

Could it be that the man is really a liar?

He had no time to care about what Cui Zhanting said.

"I'm asking you a question! Are you mute?"

Cui Zhanting said this as he reached for the sword at his waist.

"General Cui..."

At this time, Mu Yuan woke up slowly and called out to Cui Zhanting.

He knew that the Jinwu Guards had always been at odds with the Jiying Sect and looked down on each other.

Jiemie and Cui Zhanting said at the same time, "Your Highness, are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?"

Now they had a tacit understanding and said everything exactly the same.

Mu Yuan raised the corner of his mouth, "I am fine, Jiemie, where is the Blood Shadow?"

The moment he opened his eyes, he knew he had arrived at his private residence in the capital.

What he is most worried about right now is Xin Youran. He was clearly holding her hand before he fell unconscious.

"Blood Shadow? From what I've heard, isn't that female assassin already dead?"

Cui Zhanting asked doubtfully.

"Heh, I'm afraid General Cui's information network is going to be replaced."

"What are you talking about!"

Mu Yuan:......

At this moment, he suddenly felt a headache. He was already extremely anxious because he couldn't find the blood shadow, and these two people were still making things worse for him.

"go out."

After Mu Yuan said these two simple words, the two people who were just on the verge of a fight instantly calmed down.

"Your Highness, Xueying was taken away by an elegant scholar. You were poisoned, and he also gave you the antidote."

Mu Yuan jumped out of bed upon hearing this. "Elegant scholar?" He must be someone from [Luo Yu]. Doesn't that mean Blood Shadow is in danger?

"Which direction did you take him? Is anyone following him?"

Mu Yuan's question directly confused Jiemie. Everyone knew that their Jiying Sect only served His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and this was approved by the current emperor.

"I don't know..."

“No one followed…”

Mu Yuan clenched his fist and hammered the table, and the rectangular table instantly shattered into pieces.

He then spat out a mouthful of blood and laughed, "Well, well, now I should be able to see you soon..."

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

Cui Zhanting and Jiemie hurried forward to support Mu Yuan. He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his lips as if nothing had happened.

"Go find him for me. I want to see him alive or dead!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Don't worry, I'll go get Doctor Qin right away!"

"I'll arrange for someone to find Blood Shadow right away!"

He grabbed Cui Zhanting and signaled Jiemie to go find someone quickly.

When only Mu Yuan and Cui Zhanting were left in the room, he finally said, "General Cui, I'm afraid my time is running out, but the person behind this framing of me and Xueying must die!"

Cui Zhanting clasped his hands together and said in a resounding voice, "I obey your orders!"

He then stood up and asked worriedly, "Your Highness, why do you say that? Hasn't the poison been cured? How can you say you don't have much time left?"

"With Imperial Physician Qin here, nothing will happen to you!"

"You just said that he framed you and Xueying? Could it be that he was responsible for Xueying's death?"

"Could it be that the mantis is stalking the cicada, while the oriole is behind?!"
