"My master is waiting for you inside, but you can only go in alone." A man in black tights came up.

"Why? You say one person can go in, so one person can go in?" Shengqi said in a low voice, reacting strongly. After all, the lesson from the night before was still fresh in his mind.

The man in black tights was very unhappy and stared at Shengqi, neither of them giving in.

Seeing that the situation was about to get tense again, Guan Ning said, "Just wait here."

"Prince, can you..."

"It's okay." Guan Ning patted his shoulder. His intuition told him that the mysterious man was not the same as the previous Liangzhou swordsman, and if they wanted to fight, they would have done it long ago.

"Okay." Shengqi had no choice but to obey.

Guan Ning strode in. The entire hall was spotless, elegant and luxurious, and filled with various precious vases and calligraphy and paintings. The owner must be a very cultured person.

"I'm here, why don't you show up?" Guan Ning said to the people around him.

"The prince is indeed quick-witted, skilled and bold. I admire him!"

As he spoke, the sound of footsteps was heard and Guan Ning looked over.

The mysterious man finally appeared behind a screen.

He was wearing a long white robe, his facial features were three-dimensional and delicate, his eyebrows were naturally green, and his skin was fair with a rosy glow. At this moment, he had his hands behind his back, holding a folding fan, his shoulders were straight, his temperament was outstanding, and he was indescribably handsome.

Guan Ning was shocked at first sight. He was even more handsome than himself. What a handsome face!

"I don't think I know you?"

The young man in white smiled. He had red lips and white teeth, and his black hair was wrapped with a blue ribbon. He looked very heroic, and could even be said to be a pretty boy with a rosy face and red lips!

"I really don't know you. This is the first time we meet."

"You knew what I was going to do the first time we met? Have you investigated me behind my back?" Guan Ning looked at him sharply.

The young man in white raised his lips and said with a smile, "Your Highness is very cautious. You are indeed a man who keeps a low profile. You are definitely not the short-lived ghost that people in the market say you are."

Hearing this, Guan Ning's eyes darkened slightly.

"What else do you know?"

Wow!

The young man in white casually opened his folding fan, paced back and forth, and said deliberately, "I know a lot. I wonder which one you want to hear, Your Highness?"

Guan Ning narrowed his eyes and gradually became murderous.

The young man in white was extremely intelligent, as if he knew what he was thinking. He said directly, "Think carefully, my lord. If anything happens to me, your secret will be exposed to the world."

boom!

Guan Ning's heart was like a thunderclap. Secret, what secret did he know about?

He stared intently, this was the first time he met such a mysterious and threatening person!

"I can not understand what you say."

The young man in white smiled, realizing that it was almost done. There seemed to be a bright glow in his eyes.

"Okay, then I'll be straight to the point, Prince. I received news this morning that the second son of the Zhao family wants to deal with you. He seized your goods this morning, and arresting you is just an appetizer."

"And I can help you resolve this crisis."

Guan Ning narrowed his eyes, Zhao Qing?

"You help me solve it? How do you help me solve it?"

The young man in white nodded confidently: "This is not a big deal for me."

Guan Ning could tell that this person was not bragging, but his eyes remained unmoved. After all, there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

"That's not necessary."

His refusal was so clear that the young man in white's smile froze for a moment. He actually refused?

"Think carefully. I'm the only one who can help you right now. The Zhao family has a Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi, and they have countless connections in the court. And your Yipintang, no matter how powerful it is, is at best a small player. You can't compete with them."

Guan Ning directly asked: "So, what are your conditions?"

The young man in white looked at him deeply, as if with some admiration.

He could only confess: "My condition is simple, help me kill someone."

As soon as these words came out, Guan Ning bowed and said, "Goodbye!"

It’s not that he is a coward, but only a fool would do that. This young man in white is obviously from a prominent background. He even dares to interfere in the affairs of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. The person he wants to kill must be no small figure.

Isn't this pushing Yipintang into the fire pit, getting involved in too many right and wrongs, which is completely contrary to his plan of keeping a low profile?

The young man in white was stunned for a moment, his delicate face full of surprise. Was he rejecting her so completely?

Seeing that he was really about to leave, he frowned slightly and immediately called out, "Guan Ning!"

Guan Ning still didn't stop.

The young man in white was discouraged. He had failed to control Guan Ning, so he asked anxiously, "If the court knew that you were secretly hoarding iron ore and forging contraband, what do you think would be your fate?"

Suddenly, the quiet hall was completely silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

Guan Ning's steps paused, his heart filled with shock. He had done it so secretly, how did this guy know?

Then he slowly turned around and really had the intention to kill.

"Are you threatening me?" His eyes were extremely terrifying, like the gaze of death.

The young man in white trembled, as if falling into an ice cave!

What a terrible look!

How come this guy's eyes are even scarier than those of the generals!

He took a deep breath, and his slender neck, white and flawless, quickly withstood the pressure.

"Don't get excited yet." His tone softened.

"I'm helping you because we have the same enemy."

"The same enemy?" Guan Ning narrowed his eyes.

"Yes! The man I want you to kill is Zhao Qing's elder brother, Zhao Huan. He's even more domineering and hateful than Zhao Qing. Zhao Qing is just a bully, domineering, and arrogant person, but this man forces women into prostitution and kills people without a trace. He's so cruel that anyone deserves to kill him."

As he spoke, the young man in white's big eyes revealed a hint of disgust.

"Moreover, he was involved in framing your Yipintang for a false charge."

"If you help me kill him, I'll help you rescue others. I can also help you get your goods out."

"Think carefully, your people are in jail and can't be delayed any longer!" He appealed to people's emotions and reason, and his voice was so pleasant that it was difficult for people to feel hostile.

After listening to this, Guan Ning's murderous intent gradually subsided, and he even showed a hint of interest.

Suspiciously asked: "Since you are so powerful, why don't you deal with this guy yourself?"

The young man in white's eyes flickered slightly: "It's not convenient for me to take action."

"You are a commoner and you have a powerful team of assassins. You are the most suitable candidate."

Guan Ning looked at him deeply. This person actually knew so much about him!

The young man in white continued, "If you cooperate with me, killing him would be revenge, it would also be a way to eliminate harm to the people, and it would also save our workers. It would kill three birds with one stone, so why not do it?"

Guan Ning was silent. If it was about killing other people, he would refuse, but he knew the reputation of the two brothers of the Zhao family. Killing them would really be ridding the people of harm.

In addition, the young man in white spoke to his heart. The longer it drags on, the harder it will be for the workers of Yipintang in prison.

a long time.

"it is good."

"I can help you kill."

Hearing this, the young man in white was overjoyed, his eyes widening like almonds.

"But if you want to cooperate with me, I must know who you are!" Guan Ning blurted out with burning eyes.

The young man in white hesitated and finally said, "My name is Pei Bei."

"Don't play dumb, I'm talking about your identity." Guan Ning was unhappy, thinking that the name must be fake.

"This... I can't tell you for the time being, but you really don't have to worry. I will keep your affairs a secret." said the young man in white.

"I swear!" She stretched out three slender white fingers again, as if she was afraid that Guan Ning would refuse because there was no second suitable candidate.

Guan Ning didn't say anything. The ancients were very solemn about swearing, and there were many restrictions. Adding something like murder to the mix was like tying the two people together.

So Guan Ning's last worry was dispelled, and he thought about it.

"Then I have another condition. I must first see that the workers of Yipintang are released safely."
