Du Changshi asked: "Your Highness, where is the second lady?"
Yang Ying closed her eyes and did not respond.
She clenched the dagger in her hand a little tighter and said in a low voice: "Master Du, after returning to Wu, I want to enjoy the honor of the eldest princess. Are you willing to help me?"
Mr. Du's eyes were full of shock.
Without even thinking about it, he rolled up his sleeves and knelt down: "I am willing to do my best to help His Highness achieve what he wishes!"
…
In Andu City.
Ning Yuanzhou and others, with the cooperation of Li Tongguang's Yulin Guards, successfully sneaked out of the city gate.
Ren Ruyi kidnapped Emperor An and rang the Anyang bell to summon officials.
She stood on the imperial city, looking down at the civil and military officials of Anguo, and made public the crimes of Emperor An who had colluded with Beipan.
Zhu Yiwei headquarters.
Jin Meiniang successfully burned down the imperial palace and informed her of the location of the antidote that controlled Zhu Yiwei.
Above the gate of the imperial city.
Ren Ruyi announced the matter at the same time, and unearthed Zhu Yiwei's past achievements to clear Zhu Yiwei's name.
A large number of Zhu Yiwei put down their weapons and rushed towards the Sifang Gate of Andu.
After Ren Ruyi finished doing this, he quickly fled the imperial city.
Emperor An was furious and personally transferred people from central Shazhong.
Li Tongguang's use of the Yulin Guards to take over the gates of Andu was viewed with suspicion by the generals in central Shazhong.
Ren Ruyi took the initiative to show up.
She fought her way through a group of Zhu Yiwei and Shazhong soldiers, using moves to defeat the enemy without injuring them.
The general in central Shazhong was defeated by Ren Ruyi: "Kill me!"
Ren Ruyi sheathed her sword: "You are my opponent, but not my enemy. Everyone does their own thing, why should I kill you?"
This move won everyone's respect.
The sword has no eyes.
Gradually, Ren Ruyi became scarred all over.
All the Zhu Yiwei couldn't stand it anymore.
Their eyes were wet, and they shouted one after another: "Envoy Ren Zuo, stop fighting."
Ren Ruyi ignored it until Li Tongguang arrived.
In full public view, she died under Li Tongguang's sword, clearing him of suspicion.
Ren Ruyi fell from a tall building.
Deng Hui stepped forward to check the arteries in her neck and announced loudly: "Ren Xin is dead."
Li Tongguang flew down.
He looked at Ren Ruyi's body from a distance.
Sadness couldn't stop overflowing from his eyes, but he had to pretend to be indifferent.
Deng Hui ordered people to take Xixin's body away.
Li Tongguang stepped forward and blocked his way.
Deng Hui said in a deep voice: "The Holy One has an order to bring the traitor Ren Xin back to the court."
"The Marquis of Changqing was brave and resolute. He did not hesitate to put himself in danger to capture the imperial prisoner. Such a great achievement, Deng will definitely tell the emperor personally one by one."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wind started to rise from the ground.
All the red-clad guards turned their backs on their backs.
In the dusty sky, a black figure gradually appeared.
Xiao Yuxi picked up Ren Ruyi and left the place without looking away.
A group of Zhuyi guards holding long swords surrounded Xiao and Xi.
Deng Huiduan sat on his horse and asked, "Who is coming?"
Xiao Yuxi said solemnly: "Ren Xin is dead, we can't not have anyone to collect her body."
Li Tongguang looked at Xiao Yuxi's back, with a hint of panic in his eyes apart from sadness.
Deng Hui said: "Ren Xin is a traitor. No matter whether he is alive or dead, he must meet the Holy One."
Xiao Yuxi ignored it.
Her black hair moved in the wind, and a strand of hair on her chest fell to Ren Ruyi's neck in her arms.
Their hair became intertwined.
Xiao Yuxi was surrounded by strong winds, and a terrifying pressure hung over everyone's heads.
Her voice was cold and emotionless: "I am not your envoy, and I will not show mercy."
"If you don't want to die here, just get out of the way!"
All the Zhu Yiwei looked at each other.
Deng Hui raised his hand: "Take it."
Seeing this, Li Tongguang couldn't help but take a step forward, and tightened his grip on the sword in his hand.
A large number of Zhuyi guards obeyed the order and attacked Xiao Yuxi.
In an instant, the dazzling light waves dispersed in all directions.
Everyone who was three meters away from Xiao and Xi was vomiting blood and was knocked away by the powerful momentum, losing their lives in an instant.
The people behind also fell to the ground.
Deng Hui fell from his horse and looked at Xiao Yuxi's back with a frightened expression.
Even Li Tongguang was not spared.
He took several steps back, inserted the Raoming Sword into the ground, and then used the force to stabilize his body.
One black and one red, the two colors intertwined together, becoming the most eye-catching presence in the night.
The figures of Xiao and Xi gradually faded away in everyone's sight.
This time, no one dared to stop him.
Pictures of the past emerged in Li Tongguang's mind.
————
Zhu Yiwei's martial arts training ground.
Mr. Yu sat aside and watched Li Tongguang waving the Ming Sword.
Li Tongguang: "The sword contains your spiritual consciousness, which means that if you attack me, I will be able to evade your attack with it, right?"
Mr. Yu said with a smile: "That's the truth."
————
Li Tongguang's thoughts returned, he picked up the Mingjian, and murmured in a low voice: "I did something wrong."
"She doesn't want me anymore, and she doesn't want you either."
After he finished speaking, he raised his head slightly, and a tear slipped from the corner of his eye, fell down his chin, and hit the ground.
After tonight.
News of Ren Xin's death spread.
Li Tongguang was promoted to Duke of Qing.
After what happened last night, Deng Hui completely gave up his allegiance to Emperor An.
As a result, Li Tongguang and Deng Hui reached a private cooperation and planned to promote the third prince of Anguo to the throne.
The second day.
Andu Xuanwu Street.
The backyard of an ordinary shop is a place with dense bamboo forests.
Dao Wei received Xiao Yuxi's order and had already led a group of men in black from the Anguo branch to leave this place and go to Tianmen Pass.
Xiao Yuxi and Ren Ruyi live here temporarily.
When Ren Ruyi woke up, she saw Xiao Yuxi at first sight. There was no surprise on her face.
Xiao Yuxi walked to the bed and handed Ren Ruyi a glass of water.
She said coldly: "I thought you would use Deng Hui's hand to escape, but I didn't expect that you would not leave a way for yourself to survive for the sake of acting."
Ren Ruyi sat up, she took the water glass and took a sip to moisten her throat: "I know you will definitely come."
"As for Deng Hui, I have indeed thought about it, but people's hearts are unpredictable, and no one else can reassure me like you."
Xiao Yuxi said angrily: "Then should I thank you for thinking so highly of me?"
"Have you ever thought that if I hadn't gone..."
Ren Ruyi interrupted: "No if, you promised me to meet outside the city at midnight."
"If I hadn't gone, you would have come looking for me."
"Although you are often unkind, there is one thing: you will definitely do what you are told!"
Xiao Yuxi took a deep breath.
She suddenly felt that her and Ren Ruyi's roles were reversed.
The person who made people angry became Ren Ruyi, and the person who was angry became herself.
Xiao Yuxi: "Now that you're awake, leave Andu as soon as possible."
Ren Ruyi rolled over and got out of bed: "Are you leaving?"
Xiao Yuxi: "Yeah."
Ren Ruyi: "Don't you want to say something?"
Xiao Yuxi looked at her and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Huh?"
Ren Ruyi looked a little unnatural: "Yuan Zhou told me that you have to say something before leaving."
Xiao Yuxi turned to face Ren Ruyi.
She suddenly smiled and said, "What can we say between you and me?"
As she spoke, she opened her arms and said, "Should we express our sincere feelings to each other, or should we hug each other awkwardly and see you later?"
Ren Ruyi stood up.
She quickly stepped forward and hugged Xiao Yuxi, her movements obviously unskilled.
Xiao Yuxi obviously didn't expect it.
She wanted to deliberately disgust Ren Ruyi like before.
However, feeling the warmth in their arms, Xiao and Xi froze in place, and the smile on their lips froze.
Neither of them is a person who expresses their emotions, otherwise they would not have known each other for nine years, and there was not even a formal hug, which made Xiao and Xi dizzy now.
Ren Ruyi slowly let go and withdrew from Xiao Yuxi's arms: "Will we meet again?"
Xiao Yuxi: "It won't be the best."
Ren Ruyi: "Give me a reason."
Xiao Yuxi was silent for a long time, then asked: "If there are thousands of people behind you, if you take a step back, your life may be ruined."
"And I need you to step back and promise that no innocent people will be harmed."
"Will you give up your bottom line and choose to believe me?"
Ren Ruyi said frankly: "No."
Xiao Yuxi smiled and shook his head: "You see, just like I think you are the best assassin, I can't believe that you won't pose a threat to me."
"So, next time we meet, you'd better not show mercy to me."
Ren Ruyi: "You too."
The two walked side by side and slowly walked out of the room.
Ren Ruyi looked at the large bamboo forest in front of him and couldn't help but feel startled.
In Jinsha Tower, Xiao Yuxi's words seemed to echo in her ears: "Do you know that because of your words, where I will stay in the future, there will be bamboo forests everywhere."
She originally thought that this was just a casual joke from Xiao Yuxi.
After a while.
The end of the bamboo forest path.
The two of them went their separate ways, one to the left and the other to the right.
