Chapter 107 Accident
  After taking turns of interrogation, Ning Muqing was already a little annoyed by Chu Lixuan's questions.

No matter what she did or what she meant, there was nothing harmful to Chu Lixuan in the slightest.

Ning Muqing didn't understand why this man still doubted him.

He is simply the most difficult person I have ever met.

Chu Lixuan stared at Ning Muqing with cold eyes and asked, "Who is your master? What is the purpose of poisoning and detoxifying me?"

"What master do I have? I control my own destiny."

Ning Muqing was stunned for a moment.

After saying this, she realized that this was ancient times. In ancient times, it was a very hierarchical place. One thing was emphasized - the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers.

Everyone must be loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

What she said can be said to be "treasonous".

"Ahem." Ning Muqing covered up her embarrassment and said, "I mean, no one can order me to do anything. I was not sent by anyone."

"You are so clever, you think this king will believe you!" Chu Lixuan snorted coldly.

Ning Muqing was speechless. She said, "I can swear to God that what I told is the truth. If you don't believe me when I tell the truth, what else do you want me to say?"

Chu Lixuan looked cold and said nothing.

"Your Highness Prince Ning, if I guess correctly, you have many enemies?"

Ning Muqing looked into Chu Lixuan's eyes with sincerity.

Her sentence was not a question, but an affirmation.

Chu Lixuan said disdainfully, "You know why you ask."

"I don't know what you are suspecting in your heart. In short, I can guarantee that I have nothing to do with anyone who has a grudge against you. If you want to seek revenge from them or kill them, it has nothing to do with me. Please also Don’t let me take the blame for something that doesn’t exist.”

Ning Muqing said helplessly.

Chu Lixuan asked again, "Then tell me, who do I have enmity with?"

Ning Muqing, "..."

In the impression of 'Ning Muqing', Chu Lixuan had many enemies - Chen Guo's Crown Prince Huo Xun, Southern Yan General Chen Jinyan, and Northern Qin's Generalissimo Nie Wuyou.

These people are all as famous as Chu Lixuan in this world.

The four countries on this continent are divided and hostile to each other, and they are evenly matched.

Every country has its own generals who are all-powerful on the battlefield and guard the country. These people fight with each other and are destined to be rivals from birth.

Among them, the one who had the deepest blood feud with Chu Lixuan was the eldest son of Chen Kingdom, Huo Xun.

It is said that Huo Xun came to Zhou Dynasty to have diplomatic relations when he was nineteen years old. He fell in love with Ning Rourou at first sight and vowed to marry Ning Rourou.

This undoubtedly annoyed Chu Lixuan, who had been engaged to Ning Rourou since childhood.

He and Huo Xun fought for 300 rounds in the palace, and the fight was inseparable. In the end, it was only with the emperor's persuasion that the battle was finally settled.

After all, Huo Xun was the eldest son of the Chen Kingdom. If he died in the Zhou Dynasty for no reason, it would definitely lead to a war between the two countries.

The most miserable among them are the people of Liming.

Even when the two countries are at war, there is a etiquette of not killing envoys.

Chu Lixuan finally let Huo Xun go and warned Huo Xun not to have any thoughts about Ning Rourou again.

Unexpectedly, Huo Xun would provoke a border war between the two countries after returning. He mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops and vowed to marry Ning Rourou back to Chen Kingdom. In order to avoid a war, everyone talked about how to let Ning Rourou marry him.

If Chu Lixuan hadn't insisted on fighting that battle, perhaps Ning Rourou would have married Chen Guo far away.

Since then, the war between Chen State and Zhou State has never stopped.

The war between Huo Xun and Chu Lixuan goes far beyond the superficial border invasion. There are also various assassinations. It has reached the point of life and death.

Chen Guo was famous for his use of poison.

There is even a witch and Gu clan that is famous all over the world.

Chu Lixuan should now suspect that Ning Muqing is from the witch and Gu tribe.

Ning Muqing was very suffocated. It was so unjust to be suspected so inexplicably because she had done nothing. It was clear that Chu Lixuan had no evidence at all.

she……

Huo Xun's name must not be mentioned in front of Chu Lixuan.

Then Chu Lixuan would definitely think that she was just asking for it.

Chu Lixuan pressed on Ning Muqing, staring at Ning Muqing without blinking for a moment, as if he wanted to penetrate her whole body. He sneered, "Are you trying to distract me?" , I thought I could use this time to recover my strength and escape..."

Ning Muqing, "..."

If you can see this kind of thing, how can she still fool around?

"I don't understand what you are talking about." Ning Muqing frowned.

"Cunning woman, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. I don't believe a word you say..."

Chu Lixuan's eyes flashed with a bit of coldness, and the corners of his mouth curved down.

Ning Muqing's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly felt that she was not very prosperous.

next second...

Chu Lixuan conjured a rope made of black iron in his hand!
  Ning Muqing reacted very quickly. Almost at the same time that Chu Lixuan was about to lock her, she slipped out of the mud under Chu Lixuan's body like a loach.

He grabbed a handful of mud and threw it up. He originally wanted to repeat the same trick to disturb Chu Lixuan's sight, but Chu Lixuan was already prepared. He blocked the mud with his hands and rushed towards Ning Muqing.

Both of them want to subdue each other and hug each other to compete again.

No one expected Jiang Mian to steal the chicken in the end.

"Bang dong"

There was a loud sound along with the water in the river and lake.

The two were entangled in each other and rolled into the deep river.

As a human being, Ning Muqing could come and go freely even on the sea, not to mention on the river. She could react as soon as she entered the water. She would first close her eyes, nose, and mouth, and then move the water according to the buoyancy of the water. Chu Lixuan pushed hard and stepped back to a safe distance.

When Ning Muqing successfully emerged, Chu Lixuan's body sank like a stone.

His tall and slender body left only a shallow string of bubbles on the wider and vaster river surface.

Ning Muqing felt that this must be Chu Lixuan's plan. He was playing hard to get to attract her to rescue him, and then looking for opportunities to catch herself.

She must not fall into the trap.

Just when she pushed Chu Lixuan away and wanted to surface, Chu Lixuan's hands came to grab him.

This man was far more difficult than Ning Muqing imagined.

She has to leave now.

There was a turbulent undercurrent on the surface of the river. Ning Muqing waited there for a while, and the water surface was very calm.

When she came to her senses, Chu Lixuan was no longer visible, and Ning Muqing's ominous premonition was even worse.

"Chu Lixuan."

Ning Muqing's heart skipped a beat and she looked toward the bottom of the river.

He probably had a sudden cramp and couldn't swim up.

Ning Muqing's left foot felt a strange numbness, her face changed slightly, she took a deep breath and plunged into the water.

She was very good at water in her previous life, and now she was reborn in the body of 'Ning Muqing'. She adapted very quickly and dived into the water very quickly, searching for the direction of the current.

The deeper she went, the darker the light became, and it was difficult for her to see clearly what was going on under the water.

I searched around.

No trace of Chu Lixuan was seen.

Why not?
  Ning Muqing had a hunch that Chu Lixuan must have had an accident...
