I'm back from hell

Chapter 389 Xiaohua’s methods

Princess Taiping loves poetry.

This can be heard by just asking a little bit.

and so……

Whenever someone wants to hold a poetry show, they will basically invite Princess Taiping.

One of.

If the poem is well done, Princess Taiping will be very fond of it. As long as the request is not too excessive, she will basically agree.

There once was a down-and-out talented man who failed to make the list because his inside story was brushed off. Princess Taiping personally upheld justice for him and finally helped him gain fame and official position.

As soon as this incident came out, it immediately caused a sensation.

More people participate in poetry gatherings and hold poetry gatherings.

and also……

A local official was depressed and frustrated, but because of his good poetry, he wrote a poem at the poetry meeting that greatly satisfied Princess Taiping, and then his life completely changed.

Now, he is serving as a minister in the Ministry of Rites.

Two.

As long as Princess Taiping participates in the poetry meeting, the expenses of the poetry meeting will be borne by Princess Taiping.

This is related to Princess Taiping's financial resources.

In the eyes of the world, Princess Taiping is just an idle princess with little ability. In fact...

She controls Spring Tower, which is known as "the first place of smoke and willows in the capital".

Of course, it is controlled secretly.

It can be said that it is not an exaggeration to describe it as making money every day.

This is the current poetry meeting.

soon.

Princess Taiping arrived at the poetry meeting.

This is a pavilion built on the riverside, with a total of nine floors. It is the best place to enjoy the river view, and... there is no charge here.

On weekdays, this place is extremely lively.

but.

If you want to reach the ninth level, you must be powerful.

Because powerful people often come to the ninth floor to watch the river, gradually... there is an unspoken rule that only powerful people are not allowed to enter.

later.

Many talented people and beautiful women recited poems and composed poems here, and many famous poems were published.

And then.

Poetry gatherings are held here from time to time.

Wait until Princess Taiping arrives.

All the talented people and beauties started their own 'performances' in an attempt to become famous.

Unfortunately.

In this poetry gathering, there was still no poem that could reach Princess Taiping's ears.

gradually.

Princess Taiping lost her patience and was a little tired.

Staring at the river in a daze.

Everyone in the poetry meeting was a little anxious, racking their brains to think of poems.

I don’t know how long it took.

A note was passed into Lotus's hands.

Hehua frowned, looked at the note in her hand, hesitated, and then opened it, a line of poetry came into view: "The fine grass breezes on the shore, the dangerous rafts of the night boat. The stars hang down on the plains and the vast fields, the moon surges in the big river... Floating... How can it float like a sandy gull in the sky and the earth?"

Her pupils shrank, a sparkle burst out from her eyes, and she subconsciously exclaimed: "What a poem!"

Swish!

Princess Taiping turned around, looked at the lotus strangely, and asked, "Where are the good poems?"

Hehua immediately handed the poem in her hand to Princess Taiping.

After reading it, Princess Taiping's face changed from calm to full of joy. She immediately stood up, stared at the lotus, and asked, regardless of the eyes of the people around her: "Where did you get it?"

Hehua looked at the handsome young man who had just handed him the note.

The handsome young man stepped forward slowly.

"What's your name?"

Princess Taiping’s smile was as bright as a flower.

Seeing this, everyone looked envious.

They knew that Princess Taiping liked this poem.

This handsome young man is so lucky!

And then the next moment.

The handsome young man spoke out: "Your Highness, this poem was not written by me."

"Oh?"

"Who wrote it?"

Princess Taiping was surprised.

Others were more surprised.

"It's a girl."

"It's just...she's not famous and she's a woman, so she can't go up to the top floor."

The handsome young man said.

"what?"

Hearing this, Princess Taiping's face darkened.

Hehua understood and immediately sent someone to find out what was going on. This rule must be changed.

Here, talented people can come!

"Where is the man?"

"I'll go see her myself."

Princess Taiping asked.

"Princess please."

The handsome young man leads the way.

"Princess."

Lotus reminded: "There is a mixture of fish and dragons down there, everyone is there, your safety..."

"With you here, I don't feel relieved?"

Princess Taiping didn't pay attention and followed.

Hehua frowned and said nothing. She just touched the cuffs subconsciously and winked at the guard beside her.

The two guards immediately stepped forward to clear the way.

Hehua deliberately took a step behind and stood behind Princess Taiping.

In this way, Princess Taiping was 'sandwiched' in the middle, and the safety factor was greatly increased.

secretly.

The leader of the prime minister's secret guard frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

Because he was far away, he didn't know about the conversation between Princess Taiping. He only knew that Princess Taiping left during the poetry meeting. This was the first time.

As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be a monster.

He gestured.

Suddenly.

The people under his command all looked attentively and were secretly on guard.

the other side.

The number of people downstairs suddenly became very large, especially after seeing the princess coming down, they all swarmed up, which made Princess Taiping and others move much slower.

but.

The handsome young man is extremely good at 'walking' among the crowd, so he moves forward very quickly.

However, the two guards behind Princess Taiping needed to 'clear a wider path' for the princess, so the speed was naturally slower.

Therefore, they lost the figure of the handsome young man.

"Princess, be careful."

Hehua frowned, vaguely smelling something was wrong.

Just now.

Someone in the crowd shouted: "Look, everyone! It's the princess!"

Wow.

People from afar also came.

After all, many people have never seen what a princess looks like in this life. Now that they have met this time, they must not miss it.

In particular, Princess Taiping's clothes are quite cool, and her appearance and figure are extremely outstanding. This makes many men stop for a long time even if they see her, wanting to look at her for a while.

This makes the surrounding area more and more crowded.

Princess Taiping and others moved forward even more slowly. Even if there were guards shouting in front, the effect was still very little.

The secret guard leader and others also quickly realized that something was wrong, and stepped forward one after another. With their extraordinary strength, they quickly squeezed to the front of the crowd, very close to Princess Taiping.

They knew that the sneak attacker would definitely take advantage of the chaos to get close to Princess Taiping, waiting for an opportunity to take action.

By the time.

Once Princess Taiping dies, they will take action immediately.

To prevent Yin Cuicui from changing her face, blending into the crowd and taking the opportunity to escape.

Lotus wants to say something else.

Sudden.

Murderous intent emerges.

Princess Taiping, who had just arrived downstairs, felt a life and death crisis.

"boom!"

Gunfire suddenly rang out.

Princess Taiping's eyes widened suddenly, her whole body trembled violently, and she couldn't even speak.

"!!!"

Lotus was splashed with blood.

"what!"

The people around were frightened by the sudden 'special sound', and many people screamed subconsciously.

When they saw a bloody hole appeared on Princess Taiping's head, she fell down like a puppet with its strings cut off.

Suddenly.

"Ah!! Someone is dead!"

"The princess is dead! Help!"

……

There were screams.

The scene instantly became chaotic.

Hehua's eyes widened and she was completely at a loss. The main reason was that she had never seen this kind of sneak attack before. When she came back to her senses, the surroundings had become messy.

Are there any traces of the murderer?

The leader of the secret guard originally knew about the 'gun', because the Prime Minister and Lord Huang had told him in advance that it was a hidden weapon that could attack from a long distance.

Therefore, the leader of the secret guards also deployed men at the outermost edge of the crowd, with the purpose of preventing the murderer from making a sneak attack from a distance and then escaping.

but……

at the moment.

They discovered, however, that the sound of gunfire was not far away.

Right in the middle of the chaotic crowd!

This surprised them, and it was so unexpected that no one could see clearly who the gunshot came from just now.

"Don't run! The murderer is among you."

"Surround it!"

"No one is allowed to run!"

The leader of the secret guard gave the order.

pity.

There was a chaotic crowd all around, and noise was everywhere.

Who can hear him?

Naturally, his men couldn't hear him either.

Seeing that the crowd was about to scatter and completely lose control, in desperation... the leader of the secret guard jumped up and came to the shoulders of the secret guard in front.

By constantly stepping on other people's shoulders or heads, they quickly approach the subordinates on the periphery.

I don't know if it's lucky or unfortunate.

When the leader of the secret guard stepped on the shoulder of a middle-aged man, he suddenly felt a hand grabbing his ankle.

He frowned and looked down.

I saw a black pistol in the middle-aged man's hand.

"boom!"

Gunshots rang out.

The leader of the secret guard felt a pain in the middle of his eyebrows, and then his eyes widened and he fell to the ground, unconscious and...

awareness.

"what!"

This scene caused even greater chaos.

The middle-aged man quickly sneaked into the crowd, and in the next second he changed his appearance, turning into a clean and refreshing young man.

five minutes later.

There was no common people around the pavilion.

There is only one corpse: Princess Taiping.

As for the body of the secret guard leader, it had been taken away by other secret guards.

The Prime Minister has stated that regardless of success or failure, the body of the secret guard must be taken away in time without leaving any clues.

……

Night falls.

The news of Princess Taiping's assassination spread quickly and caused a huge response.

The first one to get the news was naturally His Majesty the Emperor.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Manager Liu came quickly and said in a calm tone with a hint of urgency: "Oh no! Something happened."

"What happened again?"

Hu Dajun asked with a frown.

"His Majesty."

"Princess Taiping was assassinated."

"It is an extremely special hidden weapon, suspected to be some kind of firearm."

Manager Liu said.

"firearm?!!"

"Is it a gun?"

Hu Dajun's pupils shrank and his expression suddenly changed.

He instantly thought of the woman on the cruise ship!

Why did the other party kill Princess Taiping?

Because of……

task?

definitely is!

"The time is almost up."

"Everyone started to complete their tasks."

Hu Dajun trembled all over.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Concubine He keenly noticed Hu Dajun's strange behavior and immediately stepped forward to ask with concern.

"nothing."

Hu Dajun waved his hand, looked at Manager Liu, and said, "Mobilize another two thousand Royal Forest Army troops and guard them all around."

"besides!"

"The entire palace must be on heightened alert! No other people are allowed to approach."

"Your Majesty, you...you are..."

Concubine He didn't understand what Hu Dajun meant for a while.

Manager Liu had already guessed what he was talking about through his contacts with His Majesty these days, and asked: "Your Majesty, are you worried about assassins entering the palace?"

"Correct."

Hu Dajun nodded directly and did not shy away from it.

"Your Majesty, don't worry."

Manager He shook his head and said: "The security of our palace is extremely tight, and the leader of the Royal Forest Army is known as the best warrior in the world."

"No! No! No!"

Hu Dajun shook his head and said: "That's a gun! Even if you are the best in the world, you still can't hold it!"

gun?

"..."

Manager Liu was confused.

But Hu Dajun ignored Mr. Liu and thought to himself: There are still dozens of days left, so there must be no problem! There must be no problem!

Prime Minister's House.

Editor-in-chief He and Zheng Qian had ugly expressions when they heard the news.

Not that I was worried about being attacked.

But...

"Let Xiaohua run away again!"

"It will be even harder to catch her next time."

Editor-in-chief He was obviously a little anxious. After all, the time was almost up. He complained dissatisfiedly: "Zheng Qian, didn't you say that the secret guards are very strong?"

"This……"

Zheng Qian opened his mouth but was speechless.

Naturally, he also knew the power of the 'gun', and he specifically warned the leader of the secret guard, so... the leader of the secret guard brought many of his men there, and also brought many military crossbows.

Who would have thought...that I didn't even catch Xiaohua!

The current situation is quite bad!

"Right now, Princess Taiping is killed."

"We lost the bait and we didn't alert the snake in the first place."

"It's harder to catch the little flower this time."

Chief Editor He said.

Sudden.

"correct."

Zheng Qian thought of something and said, "I remember that Xiaohua had a very good relationship with that girl, and he even risked his life to save her."

"is it?"

Editor He frowned.

"Yes."

Zheng Qian reminded: "Didn't I tell you that Xiaohua catches the golf ball with her face?"

"Uh."

Editor He's mouth twitched.

He didn't believe it at first, because... Xiaohua might be able to catch a golf ball with her face, but... how could Xiaohua's face be separated from her body?

Isn't this nonsense?

"and many more!"

He thought of the 'bait' wearing the human skin mask of Mrs. Zhuo in the previous plot, the 'bait' who only knew how to roar and had no sense.

Before, because there were many things going on, he didn't pay much attention to this strange thing.

just now.

He thought again, vaguely feeling that there was some connection between the two.

No matter what kind of relationship it is, the only thing that can be determined is: the little flower girl is definitely not simple.

"what do you mean……"

Chief Editor He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Find Lan Caihe and lure the little flower girl to show up?"

"Yes."

Zheng Qian nodded.

"It's a good idea, but..."

"We don't know where Lan Caihe is."

Chief Editor He frowned and said, "You don't know, Lan Caihe and Xiaohua are very good at hiding. We..."

"No no no."

Zheng Qian said, "Maybe Lan Caihe didn't hide it."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Editor He asked.

"Didn't we discuss it before?"

"The important characters in the plot this time are limited, and Lan Caihe and Xiaohua play very few roles."

"Now, it is confirmed that Xiaohua plays Yin Cuicui and Princess Taiping is an NPC."

"So……"

"The only one Lan Caihe can play is Zhao Xiangning!"

Zheng Qian said.

"Yup!"

Editor He's eyes lit up and he said, "If Lan Caihe really plays Zhao Xiangning, then..."

"If we catch him."

"Not only can it kill Xiaohua, but it can also completely anger the Taiwei!"

"Kill two birds with one stone!"

"Yes."

Zheng Qian nodded and said.

"It's just... Zhao Xiangning has been lying in bed for more than a hundred days."

"If Lan Caihe were her, could she lie still for more than a hundred days?"

Chief Editor He said.

Hearing this, Zheng Qian's eyes flashed.

Editor-in-chief He was so sure, it was obvious that he had... made arrangements in advance.

It seems that Chief Editor He is not idle either.

immediately.

He didn't dwell on this and said, "Whatever his purpose is."

"First determine whether Zhao Xiangning is played by Lan Caihe."

"If so, then send someone to arrest him!"

"Ah."

Editor He nodded.

a few days later.

"Yes."

Editor-in-Chief He gave a positive answer: "It's played by Lan Caihe."

Zheng Qian's eyes lit up: "Then do it!"

"only……"

Chief Editor He was silent.

Zheng Qian frowned and asked, "Just what? Did something happen?"

"Ah."

Editor-in-chief He explained: "Lan Caihe's guard is very strict."

"No one who is not Lan Caihe's personal maid, Yue Ji, is allowed to come near her."

"There are two fierce women with thick limbs standing at the door all year round. It is said... that these two are good sumo wrestlers. One of them can defeat ten warriors."

"Then how did you find out the situation?"

Zheng Qian asked.

"Breaked through Rose's friend—Plum Blossom."

Editor-in-chief He said: "This plum blossom is also a maid of the Taiwei Mansion."

"Since I can bribe Plum Blossom."

Zheng Qian said: "Then we will definitely be able to bribe Yue Ji."

Chief Editor He nodded.

He knew what Zheng Qian meant. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I will try to figure out Yue Ji's preferences."

"Uh-huh."

Zheng Qian nodded and said, "As soon as possible."

What neither of them expected was.

the following few days.

After investigation by the Prime Minister's men, Yueji didn't love money or fame, and she had no relatives at home. She liked growing flowers and grass, but she would not betray Zhao Xiangning because of this.

This gave both of them a headache.

"It is impossible for a person to have no desires."

Zheng Qian said: "Even a dead soldier is no exception."

"She must have some desire that we don't know about."

Editor He frowned.

People do have desires, and there are many desires.

but……

There are always people who can hold back their desires.

'Ugh. '

'I hope this person named Yueji is not this kind of person. '

After sighing, Chief Editor He thought to himself.

A few more days passed.

at last.

Editor-in-chief He got two big news.

First, Lieutenant Zhao is about to take action! Just these days!

Second, Rose has always loved someone.

"I didn't expect that."

"Lieutenant Zhao is actually going to take action."

Zheng Qian was surprised.

Originally, their plan was to use Captain Zhao's daughter to force Captain Zhao to rebel. After that, they never caught Taiwei Zhao's daughter and were very anxious.

result……

Now, Captain Zhao actually took the initiative to rebel.

It saves them a lot of things at once.

"Yes."

Editor-in-chief He was the happiest, because it was related to his mission. He quickly made a plan and said: "As soon as Taiwei Zhao takes action, we will immediately send people to snatch Taiwei Zhao's daughter-Zhao Xiangning. "

"When the time comes, you will be able to complete the task."

"Ah."

Hearing this, Zheng Qian's complexion improved a lot.

… …

In the blink of an eye, another few days passed by.

Seeing the 100 hours getting closer and closer, Editor-in-Chief He and Zheng Qian became more and more anxious, and even lost their patience.

Captain Zhao finally took action.

This night.

I don't know when a large number of soldiers who were hiding in Kyoto gathered directly, and... they were wearing armor, holding swords and crossbows, and their fighting will was far beyond that of ordinary soldiers.

They were divided into several forces, and they took the lead in cooperating with their own people within the capital city defense army, controlling the entire city defense army, and killing all the resisters.

In just a few hours, blood flowed like a river.

Killed thousands of soldiers.

The rest wait.

Either surrender or surrender, at least there are no resisters on the surface.

It is worth mentioning that.

No news leaked out.

because……

Lord Taiwei, several thousand scouts from the special generals were mobilized to ambush all the soldiers in the city who escaped and tried to deliver the message.

The whole process was like lightning.

Many senior officials in the city and major government offices were unable to react at all.

but.

Editor-in-chief He and Zheng Qian had been prepared for it, so unlike others, they learned the news immediately and quickly issued an order to arrest Zhao Xiangning.

"Success or failure is here."

"I hope it will succeed!"

"Must succeed!"

"If we don't succeed, our mission has failed."

"After tonight, we only have two hours."

"At that time, we will also use Lancaihe to trap Xiaohua. Hopefully it's not too late."

"Don't worry, it's still in time."

……

The two of them had no idea at all.

at the same time.

Taiwei Mansion.

After Yue Ji served Xia Yu as always, she did not turn around and leave as usual. Instead, she stared at Xia Yu and whispered, "Miss."

"sorry."

"My slave did not mean to harm you, but... but... Lu Lang's life is in the hands of those people. If this slave does not do what they say, they will kill Lu Lang."

"They kill slaves, slaves are not afraid, but they kill Lu Lang... slaves... slaves... slaves... slaves can't help it."

she sobbed.

Xia Yu, who was lying on the bed, felt her heart sink when she heard what the other party said.

After waiting for more than a hundred days, it was just the last day and night before he would use the spiritual fire to temper his body and improve his physical talent, but something unexpected happened.

According to the information provided by the rules, the girl named Yue Ji had a lifelong secret love affair with the so-called 'Lu Lang'. After being discovered by Zhao Xiangning, Yue Ji knelt down and begged for mercy.

Zhao Xiangning has a good relationship with Yue Ji, so naturally she won't care and even plans to give Yue Ji her freedom.

Rose refused.

because……

That Mr. Lu still wanted to get a good name, and he wanted to wait until he was in high school before marrying Yue Ji.

During this period, Yueji wanted to sponsor 'Lu Lang', but was rejected by 'Lu Lang'.

Zhao Xiangning felt that the 'man surnamed Lu' had good character, so she encouraged the two of them to interact with each other. However... in order to prevent their father from discovering it, both of them chose to conceal the matter.

did not expect.

Later, Zhao Xiangning became a "vegetative state".

Unexpectedly.

Now Yueji has betrayed herself because of that 'Lu Lang'!

'The human heart can never stand the test. '

Xia Yu was not surprised by this.

Although this girl named Zhao Xiangning is proficient in playing piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, she still knows too little about the human heart.

I trust my maid too much.

"Miss."

"You were very kind to me before, and I will remember that in my heart."

"In these years, I have served you with all my heart, telling you about the world's major events, family affairs, and your favorite military books and poetry collections."

"It can be regarded as repaying the favor."

"Now, my betrayal of you for Lu Lang is not repaying a favor with a grudge."

Yueji continued to speak.

Is this excusing yourself?

You are really good.

Xia Yu didn't expect that this maid was also a master of "self-deception".

"but."

"I'm a very nostalgic person."

Yueji said: "I will try my best to plead for you."

"Those guys promised me they wouldn't hurt you."

"So, don't worry."

Those guys?

Who is it?

Editor-in-chief He?

Or maybe it was the two people on the cruise ship next door?

Xia Yu has been thinking about one thing: based on the news Yue Ji told her a few days ago, she judged that the prime minister was probably Chief Editor He or one of the two people on the cruise ship next door.

His Majesty the Emperor, who is suddenly lustful and afraid of death, may also be one of them.

When Princess Taiping was killed, the murderer's hidden weapon would make a loud noise. Wu Zuo took out a hidden weapon that looked like a finger from Princess Taiping's head.

She knew that Princess Taiping was probably an NPC, and as for Yin Cuicui...

Mostly little flowers!

It was Xiaohua who shot Princess Taiping.

Everything is on point.

So, the 'those guys' Yue Ji was talking about at this time were probably the prime minister and others.

"Boom."

At this moment, two heavy slamming sounds were heard outside the door.

Judging from the sound, it was probably the guard outside the door who fell to the ground.

"fainted?"

"Looks like those drugs are working."

Yueji muttered to herself.

soon.

"Cuckoo~"

She came outside the door, stood close to the courtyard wall, and then imitated a certain bird call.

"Whoosh."

……

Several men in black jumped down, quietly entered the room, and carried Xia Yu away.

Because the entire Taiwei Mansion's attention was focused on tonight's actions, no one noticed the movement here.

"Whoosh."

Seeing the young lady being carried away by the other party, Yueji knew that she couldn't stay either.

otherwise.

There is no doubt that he will die.

So, she turned and left without hesitation.

With the help of the young lady's status as the most favored maid, she was able to move around the house unimpeded and soon left.

The whole process was much smoother than expected.

I don’t know how long it took.

Its daybreak.

The entire capital city is about to undergo drastic changes.

When the common people opened the door and prepared to go out, they found that the streets were full of patrolling soldiers. When they saw the common people, they immediately scolded them and signaled them to go back, otherwise...

Kill without mercy!

How could the people dare to resist? They went back immediately and discussed with their families: "What happened? The streets are full of soldiers."

"Master, let's stay at home. Fortunately, we always have some rice and noodles at home. I hope this storm will pass as soon as possible."

"What did you say would happen?"

"Why do you care so much? No matter what happens, our lives will continue and it won't affect us."

……

In front of the palace.

"kill."

"Kill!"

……

Lieutenant Zhao is personally commanding the army to attack.

The originally tall palace wall only lasted for an hour before it was broken.

Just as Captain Zhao was about to lead his army into the palace, he got the news: the lady was missing.

His pupils shrank, but...

Now that the arrow was on the string and he had to fire it, he couldn't escape. He could only look at a capable subordinate beside him and ordered: "Go find him immediately!"

"quick!"

"Yes!"

The subordinates take orders.

"Wait a minute."

When his men were about to leave, Lieutenant Zhao took out his waist badge and said, "Take it! Let the policemen from the capital government and the people from Liumen help you."

"Yes!"

The men nodded and retreated.

"Fight in!"

Lieutenant Zhao readjusted his emotions, turned his attention to the palace, and issued an order.

"kill!"

The army charged.

In the palace.

After receiving the news, Hu Dajun was completely shattered and had no desire to resist at all: "Run!"

"Run!"

"I have to run!"

"You! Come all to me to stop the rebels!"

"quick!"

Manager Liu looked at the panicked His Majesty, frowned, sighed secretly, and knocked him out with a palm of his hand.

People around: "???"

"The situation is over."

"Are you willing to join our family and join the Taiwei?"

Manager Liu asked calmly.

"You... Manager Liu, you surrendered to the enemy! Damn it!"

One of the soldiers was furious.

"puff."

The next moment, Manager Liu raised his hand and shot out a sharp arrow, hitting the soldier between the eyebrows.

dead!

"what!"

The concubine screamed behind her.

The other soldiers in front of him aimed their weapons at Manager Liu, but no one dared to take action.

The confrontation did not last long.

As Lord Taiwei led his army, the soldiers threw their weapons on the ground and chose to surrender.

ten minutes later.

It's getting dark.

Two pieces of gossip reached the ears of the officials:

First, His Majesty was so angry that he died, and the Imperial Seal passed into the hands of the Taiwei.

Secondly, the Prime Minister captured the Taiwei’s daughter.

Prime Minister's House.

Lord Taiwei is here in person.

At this time, he could make a special trip to the Prime Minister's Mansion, which shows how much he values his daughter Zhao Xiangning.

"Prime Minister, let my daughter go, and I can let you go."

Captain Zhao promised in public.

"Lord Lieutenant, no! Absolutely no!"

"Yes! Mr. Taiwei, if you let the tiger return to the mountain, there will be endless troubles."

"Lord Lieutenant, be careful!"

……

The advisers behind him all spoke out to dissuade him.

Lieutenant Zhao didn't listen at all.

Editor-in-chief He and Zheng Qian were not panicked at all.

"No no no."

Chief Editor He shook his head.

"What do you mean?"

Lieutenant Zhao frowned and asked in confusion: "You took my daughter, wasn't it just to survive?"

"of course not."

Chief Editor He said: "Hand over Yin Cuicui, and I will let your daughter go."

Anyway, as long as the 100 hours are up, he can return to reality, so... he doesn't have to worry about anything happening to him, and naturally he doesn't have to worry about Lieutenant Zhao and the border troops standing behind him.

"Yin Cuicui?"

"who is she?"

Lieutenant Zhao frowned even more tightly.

The men on the side immediately told Yin Cuicui's story.

after all.

Yin Cuicui is also considered the number one person.

If everyone had forgotten Yin Cuicui before, then... Ever since Zhuo Fan, Mrs. Zhuo and the prefect were killed, Yin Cuicui has become completely famous.

When everyone knew that she was the daughter of the "Leather Yin" who was very famous in the capital, everyone paid more attention to her.

After all, the 'human skin mask' is too useful.

Everyone who is rich and powerful wants to get one! Or more than one!

at the moment.

Lieutenant Zhao also reacted, stared at Chief Editor He puzzledly, and asked, "What do you want her to do?"

"That's not what you need to think about."

Chief Editor He shrugged and said, "You don't have much time. If you can't hand over Yin Cuicui to me tonight, I will kill your daughter!"

"Go find it."

Lieutenant Zhao didn't waste any time and immediately issued the order.

This night.

The entire capital city was turned over.

but……

There is still no trace of Yin Cuicui.

"What if Lieutenant Zhao can't find him?"

"There is no news yet. Xiaohua will not save Lan Caihe, right?"

Seeing that the mission was about to fail and that he was getting closer and closer to death, Zheng Qian became uneasy and walked around and spoke.

"rest assured."

Chief Editor He said: "We didn't expect Captain Zhao to find Yin Cuicui."

"What we have to do is... get the message out!"

"Yin Cuicui will naturally come when the time comes."

"How can you be so sure that Xiaohua will come to save Lan Caihe?"

Zheng Qian asked back.

"This……"

Editor He hesitated.

He really didn't have this certainty.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"If you can't catch Yin Cuicui, your mission will fail."

Zheng Qian asked.

Chief Editor He said: "Afraid! But is fear useful?"

Zheng Qian was silent.

It's indeed useless, but what should I do now?

Just now.

"Report!"

A voice sounded.

"what's up?"

"Did Yin Cuicui find it?"

Zheng Qian asked immediately.

The subordinates reported: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Yin Cuicui has appeared, and the Grand Lieutenant has escorted her here."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Editor-in-Chief He and Zheng Qian showed surprise and strode out.

Bed.

When Xia Yu heard the news, she couldn't help but feel worried.

She knew that Xiaohua must have heard that she was in danger, so she showed up before the 100 hours were about to come.

"You must be fine."

Xia Yu's mood fluctuated.

She wanted to kill Chief Editor He and Zheng Qian, but...

Until the last moment, she still didn't want to ruin the entire process of tempering the spirit fire.

after all.

Just the last minute left.

"Little flower."

"You must hold on!"

Xia Yu would never allow anything to happen to Xiao Hua.

at the moment.

Since getting Xiao Hua, she and Xiao Hua have been cooperating and doing almost every action together. It can be said that... the relationship between the two is no weaker than that of Xie Shaokun and Xiao Nan.

If you have to choose.

She would choose the little flower instead of the talent improvement brought by the spiritual fire.

at the same time.

In order to catch Yin Cuicui before the 100-hour deadline, Editor-in-Chief He and Zheng Qian did not dare to waste a moment, and soon saw Yin Cuicui in the front hall.

"Yin Cuicui!"

"It's really you!"

Seeing that the person in front of them was the little flower girl, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

but.

Both of them were very scheming. They all pretended to be calm and said, "We need to test whether she is Yin Cuicui."

"After all, Yin Cuicui is good at making human skin masks."

"Who knows if the person in front of you is Yin Cuicui?"

"can."

Captain Zhao nodded and waved his hand.

Xiaohua stepped forward.

Chief Editor He stared at the other party and asked, "What's your friend's name? I'm referring to the woman on the cruise ship that you tried your best to protect."

Captain Zhao and others: "???"

Xiaohua did not hesitate to write a name on the paper with a pen: Lan Caihe.

Editor He nodded and looked at Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian didn't waste any time and asked, "What is the most important step in your craft of making human skin masks?"

???

Everyone's heads were full of questions, obviously they didn't expect Zheng Qian to ask such a question.

Even Editor-in-Chief He didn’t expect it.

Xiaohua didn't hesitate at all. She picked up the pen and wrote on the paper: "Skin a human alive and nourish it with blood. The production must be completed within an hour..."

Seeing that what the other party wrote was so detailed, and the most important thing was that it was exactly the same as the production process, Zheng Qian no longer had any doubts and nodded towards Editor He.

"How about it?"

"Can you let my daughter go?"

Captain Zhao asked.

"Do not."

Chief Editor He shook his head.

"you……"

"As the Prime Minister, do you go back on your word?"

Captain Zhao asked coldly.

"Lieutenant Zhao."

"Now that my life is almost at risk, I still care about my face?"

Editor He asked.

Captain Zhao was silent for a moment and asked, "What else do you want?"

"It's very simple."

"You personally escort us out."

Chief Editor He said: "However, we need to make some preparations. Come back in three days."

three days?

Lieutenant Zhao didn't understand what Chief Editor He and others were thinking, but he could only agree.

Zheng Qian waved his hand.

The men left and stepped forward, grabbing Xiao Hua.

When returning to the Prime Minister's Palace.

"Ok?"

Zheng Qian did not find a 'gun' on Xiaohua, so he couldn't help but frown and asked, "Where is the gun?"

This thing is the key!

This was the key to Chief Editor He and Zheng Qian killing Captain Zhao!

Without him, Chief Editor He would not be able to kill Taiwei Zhao and complete the mission.

Xiaohua wrote on the paper: I put it away. I will not give it to you unless you let Sister Lan go.

"you……"

Editor-in-chief He slapped him and cursed: "You're still bargaining with me, right?"

"Believe it or not, we will kill her now?"

Time was running out, and he had no time to talk nonsense with Xiaohua. He directly pulled out the guard's knife and pointed it at Xia Yu's neck, with a threatening look on his face.

Xiaohua hesitated and wrote down a location.

"Go get it!"

"quick!"

Chief Editor He issued the order.

The men will do it immediately.

In just three minutes, his men took the 'gun' back, but...

"Where's the bullet?"

"Are you kidding me?"

Chief Editor He roared.

Apparently, his patience had been exhausted.

Xiaohua wrote another location.

Editor-in-chief He couldn't help but grit his teeth, but he could only hold back and made a gesture.
