"Miss Song, do you remember how many times this was the assassination?"
Song Shuwan was startled: "No...."
She just said a word, and it suddenly dawned on her that it wasn't that the people behind her had really given up, but that they had to stop.
After repeated assassinations, both Pei Huan and she would come to settle accounts with them. To show up at this time would be tantamount to directly telling them where they were hiding.
Thinking of this, Song Shuwan felt quite regretful in her heart: "This is really...that's all. Since they intend to kill me, they won't give up completely. We still have a chance to find the hiding place of that force."
Even so, the look on Zhen Yuan's face was still ugly.
In this regard, Song Shuwan didn't have much to say. She only gave a few words of advice, then brought the topic to an end and talked about returning to Anyuan City.
"The prince's side shouldn't be delayed for too long. Even if we stay here, we can only stay here for a day or two at most, so..."
Zhen Yuan snorted coldly, crossed his arms and said, "Pei Huan will definitely come back to pick you up. Before he shows up, you should give up the idea of returning to Anyuan City."
Song Shuwan instantly grasped the key: "Are you afraid something will happen?"
Zhen Yuan looked very solemn: "According to the current situation, it will be difficult if nothing happens, right?"
Song Shuwan thought the same thing and couldn't help pinching her eyebrows. After thinking for a few times, she finally suppressed her thoughts.
"As you said, let's just stay here for the next few days. I won't try to leave."
"Um."
For the next two days, Song Shuwan and Zhen Yuan stayed in Dashui Village. There was no trace of the assassins who appeared frequently in the past two days.
At the same time, Anyuan City was falling into chaos.
"Pei Huan, just to lure us out, you deliberately pretended to be missing, without even caring about the people of Anyuan City. You are so cruel!"
"Pei Huan, you must die a happy death!"
A group of people were pinned to the ground, and Pei Huan stood in the middle, as if he didn't hear their words. These were all people who had done various things in Anyuan City after he disappeared. According to their behavior, they would be punished in various ways.
After a while, several secret guards appeared in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, we have found out that the group of people who came in earlier are indeed related to Prince Ning. Now that the evidence is conclusive, can we arrest him?"
Pei Huan smiled coldly, the corners of his lips raised with murderous intent: "Prince Ning is here on behalf of the Emperor. How can we catch him? We have to invite him here respectfully."
Half an hour later, Prince Ning appeared in front of Pei Huan. He looked around and looked at the people kneeling on the ground. He knew that today's situation was not good for him, and his expression suddenly became solemn.
"It seems that after this king showed up today, he had to pay a big price."
Pei Huan said calmly: "As long as Lord Ning knows what he knows, I won't talk nonsense. Let's get straight to the point. The people who broke into the city and massacred the people were let in by Prince Ning, right? Why did they let them in? The people in the city What good will it do to you if something goes wrong?"
Prince Ning smiled slightly and walked slowly to a person. Before he could speak, he suddenly kicked him.
Just hearing screams, the person who was kicked flew backwards, knocked down a large number of people, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The guards around him took a look and subconsciously took a step forward, with anger in their eyes.
At this time, King Ning turned around: "Prince Pei has arrested so many people, but he still doesn't know the benefits of this trouble? You don't want to talk nonsense, and I don't want to talk nonsense. I can tell you directly. I have only one purpose in doing this, to kill you!"
"brush--"
The surrounding guards could no longer bear it any longer, and all the long swords in their hands were drawn out. What's more, some of them shouted impudently and glared at King Ning angrily.
"laugh--"
Prince Ning was disdainful, with contempt in his eyes: "So what if I am so presumptuous? Pei Huan, do you dare to kill me?"
Pei Huan didn't speak, just looked at Prince Ning without saying a word.
Time passed, a gust of wind blew, and Pei Huan moved.
He walked to Prince Ning's side and tilted his head slightly: "Song Shuwan will not look at you differently because of my death. Prince Ning, if you really have any thoughts about Song Shuwan, you should help her instead of acting like a villain. .”
After the words fell, Pei Huan asked the surrounding guards to send the person away.
After the space cleared, Prince Ning sneered and said, "I was born a villain, why do I need to act like a villain? Besides, Song Shuwan is just a pastime for me. It's not surprising that I value her so much. It's disgusting!"
Pei Huan smiled: "In that case, I won't say more. Someone, please invite Prince Ning into the cell."
"yes!"
Prince Ning was crushed away, leaving Pei Huan standing alone. After an unknown amount of time, a secret guard appeared in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, there is news from Dashui Village that an assassin appeared not long after you left. Fortunately, Miss Song was just frightened and nothing happened."
Pei Huan's dark eyes instantly narrowed, and a dangerous aura spread around him.
The secret guard who delivered the message lowered his head, his heart was raised, and he was too afraid to move.
Not long after, the dangerous aura disappeared, and Pei Huan said coldly: "Send someone to investigate. I want to know who did it. In addition, add more guards from Dashui Village to ensure her safety." .”
"yes."
The secret guard retreated.
Pei Huan pinched his eyebrows and thought about the changes during this period. Even he felt a little heavy in his heart.
More importantly, the people of Anyuan City...
"Your Majesty!"
There was a shout, and Yue Cheng appeared with dozens of people. When he got close, he knelt down and said apologetically: "The general failed to protect Miss Song and betrayed your trust. Please punish me."
Pei Huan stretched out his hand to help him stand up: "I know the specific situation well, you don't have to worry about it, but I have some questions that I need you to answer."
Yue Cheng said seriously: "Your Majesty, please speak."
"Why was Anyuan City broken open?"
The surroundings fell into silence, and Yue Cheng lowered his head: "The general didn't expect this, but..."
"Don't talk about making up for it. You failed to expel the intruder immediately after the incident. It was your fault. Yue Cheng, I don't want to listen to those prevarications."
"thump!"
Yue Cheng knelt down again: "There was a mistake in Lin Yu's army. The general has found out and dealt with it according to Lin Yu's rules."
The corner of Pei Huan's mouth curled up with a cold arc: "I haven't seen you react so quickly in normal times. Now that something happened, it was beyond my expectation. Is there anyone alive?"
"Yes, the general has left a few people involved in the matter, but they... don't know the specific situation."
Pei Huan hummed and waved his hand for Yue Cheng to step back.
Yue Cheng stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly patted his head: "Your Majesty, Miss Song's side..."
"She is in Dashui Village and is safe. You don't have to worry."
After hearing this, Yue Cheng left quickly.
The next moment, Pei Huan's cold voice sounded: "Stare at him."
The wind blew and picked up Pei Huan's collar. Soon the surroundings were completely quiet except for one person.
