Chapter 457 Crash
Jiang Tang was completely stunned by the man's words, her face was blank for a moment, she really didn't know what to say.

"cough,"

In the end, Jiang Tang coughed, avoiding the man's sight: "This servant can't understand what adults say."

There seemed to be a sneer in her ear, and the next moment Jiang Tang saw a cold light flash in front of her eyes, she raised her head subconsciously, and saw a small dagger appearing in the man's palm, which looked like a toy under his flexible manipulation.

With a sound of "唰~", the dagger was sheathed, then turned around, and handed it to her.

"Take it."

Looking at the dagger handed over, Jiang Tang subconsciously avoided it.

Lu Xiao frowned: "Don't you dare?"

Jiang Tang finally looked up at him, his watery eyes were shockingly beautiful in the night.

This time it was him who froze.

He didn't know what to think of, he looked away, and said in a cold and deep voice without waves:
"The murderer's method is clean and neat without leaving any unnecessary traces. It is the work of a professional killer. Even Jin Yiwei cannot guarantee to catch the murderer in time. This dagger is just for your self-defense. If you are not afraid..."

"Thank you sir!"

Before the man finished speaking, Jiang Tang snatched the dagger very "tactfully" and said, "My lord's great kindness, the little girl is very grateful, and I can only repay it in the next life."

She spoke so fluently and naturally that Lu Xiao was completely stunned after hearing it clearly.

"Repay in the next life?"

He repeated the sentence.

Jiang Tang stared wildly and remained silent, which was a tacit consent.

He couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, and that face that had always been rigid and ruthless instantly melted away, making it stunningly handsome.

Unfortunately, the girl with her head down did not see it.

When she looked up again, the smile on the other party's face had disappeared.

"There are guards stationed around the inn, and ordinary people can't get in at all. The murderer is either someone in the inn, or among the entourage..."

Jiang Tang thought about this clearly, and said slowly: "If you are not afraid of trouble, it is better to set up a monitoring and reporting mechanism, so that people in the same account can monitor and report each other, and maybe there will be different gains."

Lu Xiao's originally indifferent expression sank slightly after listening to the girl's words, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of her suggestion.

Jiang Tang just didn't know, and soon showed a cute and relaxed smile: "Of course, I'm just talking casually, adults just listen."

The man looked at her without speaking, and there seemed to be many things she couldn't understand hidden in his black eyes.

"I will think about it."

When Lu Xiao said a word, Jiang Tang breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.

She made this suggestion out of selfishness. The situation in the Yanshan Palace will be unpredictable in the future. If you can detect some clues in advance and make preparations in advance, you may be able to recover some losses.

Thinking of this, she glanced at the tall young man in front of her again. In the original book, there was no such a person at all.

I don't know where he came from, it can't be because he died...

"Let's go back."

Lu Xiao suddenly interrupted Jiang Tang's wild thoughts, she nodded subconsciously: "Okay."

Jiang Tang walked two steps with her head buried, and suddenly thought of something to stop and turn around, but there was no doubt that the man was still standing there looking at her.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly continued walking towards the tent without looking back.

But his heart was not so calm: "Who the hell is Lu Xiao? Does he know me?"

The system's heartless answer came from my mind: [I don't know.There is no such person in the original book, maybe he is a cannon fodder who died early like the host? 】

Jiang Tang: ...

Jiang Tang didn't want to bother with it anymore, and tried to find it from the original body's memory.

But in the end, there is still nothing: she doesn't remember him.

Sure enough, the next thing, just like what Lu Xiao said, was checked all night, but still found nothing.

On the second day, the convoy was ready to set off.

Only a few people were left to continue the investigation, and the rest continued to escort the emperor to the summer resort.

After all, the death of just a small eunuch is not willing to let the whole team stop here.
-
On the carriage, Jiang Tang was giving Lin Zhaoyi the last treatment.

After finishing this time, I don't need to do it again, and I just need to apply the mask on time every day.

When Xiangcheng opened the cellar, it was the time when Sheng Meiren fell from the altar.

Even Nan Xing didn't know about it, out of habit, Jiang Tang kept a small portion of the prepared fragrant pills. Although the quantity was small, it was enough to steal Sheng Meiren's limelight in the palace.

Needless to say, Lin Zhaoyi's excitement and anticipation can be felt. Her goal has always been to intercede for her father and brother. Sheng Meiren is just the biggest stumbling block on her way to success.

For any reason, it must be kicked away.

Seeing that success is approaching, Lin Zhaoyi's mood improved a lot, and she became a little more sincere when she saw Jiang Tang. After all, such a beautiful and capable court lady who doesn't compete with her for favor is really a rare wife!
"Before you arrive at the palace, you try to stay with others as much as possible. I heard that the murderer is brutal, but I haven't found it yet."

Just as Jiang Tang was about to say "I know", she heard Sheng Meiren's last words: "Another one died yesterday, the emperor is very upset."

Jiang Tang shut up what he had said: "I see, thank you for reminding me, empress."

[He actually killed another eunuch, this person has a grudge against the eunuch, right? 】

When I got off the carriage, the system couldn't control my thoughts.

The weather was bad today, and there was a heavy rain on the way, so the team hurriedly found a post station nearby to avoid the rain.

The whole team was in a mess, and there were loud voices when they went out.

The closer she was to the Yanshan Mountain Resort, the more Lin Zhaoyi couldn't do without Jiang Tang. Now she simply asked the maid to stay in the tent and let Jiang Tang stay in the room to wait on her.

Normally, Jiang Tang might refuse for various reasons, but it is raining today, and she is not interested in going outside to squeeze into the tent with people, so she just took advantage of the situation.

After serving Lin Zhaoyi to wash up, she planned to take care of herself. Anyway, Lin Zhaoyi was not favored, so she didn't have to worry about meeting acquaintances.

The result may be fate, when I turned the corridor, I ran into something I shouldn't have heard in the garden——

"If it is not necessary, the little girl dare not disturb the prince... Please help me!"

Intermittent female voices came through the rain curtain, Jiang Tang was supposed to leave, but was stopped by the word "Prince".

She paused, and before she could decide whether she should eavesdrop, she heard a cold male voice that was so familiar coming from the same place:
"Since you know it's presumptuous, why don't you go? Who gave you the right to talk to me about this?"

This familiar mean and ruthless male voice...Even if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Jiang Tang already knew who was standing behind him.
