"I told you a long time ago that there is a knife on Sezi's head. How about it, have you learned your lesson this time?"

"Why did Shen Hui let you come here? Where is Linghu Ji?"

The delicate girl heard the dislike in her words, raised her brows slightly, and said unceremoniously: "Of course Master sent me to persuade you to return to Huaiyuan. It's a business trip. Or you just don't want to see me, Don't want to see me? Don't forget that if it wasn't for me last night, would you still be able to sit here intact? "

Zhou Huai raised her forehead. She felt that it was impossible for anything to happen on her own territory in the northwest, but last night was indeed a bit dangerous, and it was a bit exaggerated, but now she can only change the subject with a blue face: "Okay , don’t be verbose, thank God if you don’t trouble me! I was saved by you, but it doesn’t mean how good you are, your appearance just proves that your elder brother Linghu has neglected his duties, understand?”

The girl choked, her face turned red and then turned white, but in an instant she changed into a rascal look, and dared to gloat back: "Brother Linghu went to catch Xiao Yu who sneaked away, and your sweetheart is probably also packed up now." Things are getting ready to go."

Zhou Huai was stunned for a moment, and didn't continue to pursue Linghu Ji's matter. He just defended the eldest princess and said, "Nonsense, she went to see Liao Qiwei after she left the attic, and she didn't even know about Xiao Yu's escape."

"Hmph! Even if she didn't know that the assassin's weapon was smeared with a blood-stained throat-smear, who wouldn't know that Xiao Yu was her subordinate?"

Zhou Huai's expression was not very good when he heard the words 'seal the throat with blood'.

Someone did die in the attic last night, but it was the envoy named Shi Yu.

The assassin was killed by Xi Muzhao who appeared in time, but the envoy's death was Zhou Huai's intention. It was rare for her to vent her anger on others. When she learned that the envoy was plotting to take the eldest princess to leave the northwest, she simply did nothing.

"Anyway, I'm just going to settle accounts with Xiao Yu. That guy is clever. To put it bluntly, he knows the current affairs. To put it bluntly, he is unscrupulous. One slave serves the things of a hundred masters. Don't let me catch you again, or you will be wiped out." That dog thing!"

"Master, don't worry, brother Linghu has gone to arrest him overnight, and he will definitely be arrested."

Zhou Huai smiled, and ignored Xi Muzhao's obedient and flattering smile.

Xi Muzhao looked at Zhou Huai with a cold smile, knowing that Zhou Huai was angry, so he shrank his neck, not daring to be presumptuous anymore.

She looks pure and delicate, with a clean temperament, which happens to be the type that Zhou Huai doesn't like.It was only because of Shen Hui's face as her master, and because of the friendship that the two had known each other since they were young, that they dared to say a few words to their sweetheart Linghu Ji, but they did not dare to say a few words to their sweetheart, but they were too presumptuous to say a few words, and they were cowardly.

"Tell me what you're here for?"

Xi Muzhao blinked, and answered honestly: "Master asked me to pass on a message, saying, 'The time has come, I hope you can go back to take charge of the overall situation soon'."

Zhou Huai looked at her, lowered his head in thought.Although Zhou Huai is not in Huai Yuan, he is well informed.What happened these days is even more sensitive.

First of all, there was good news from Xirong. Wanyan Shaohong, who was co-sponsored by Zhou Huai and Mo Ziqi, won the final victory, and immediately used Qiang's list of traitors in the northwest and the map of the border city defense to report the victory. Zhou Huai surrendered.

There is also good news on the western border. The Qiang Kingdom is still arguing over whether to go to war. At present, the opposition has temporarily gained the upper hand and has sent envoys to the northwest for an agreement. There are hidden signs of retreating.However, the Qiang Kingdom also sent people to contact other countries, so the direction of this war is uncertain.

But many people think that with Zhou Huai, an ambitious trailblazer, it is only a matter of time before a war breaks out.

There is also a letter from Dean Shen saying that those stragglers did cause trouble in Yunzhou, but everything is still under control, and the relocation of Huaiyuan has begun and is progressing smoothly.It's just that Shen Hui can't get used to Zhou Huai's hands-off shopkeeper, and always urges Zhou Huai to go back to calm people's hearts.In fact, he was also afraid that Zhou Huai would cause trouble or accidents outside.

Finally, Zhou Hao, the son of Wednesday, was dismissed from his post because it was rumored that he was a descendant of the former royal family, and he was placed under house arrest by Zhou Qing. He will be escorted to the capital by the prince himself in a few days.

Seeing that Zhou Huai was silent, Xi Muzhao changed his mind when his master asked her to find out if Zhou Huai had fallen into the tender land of the eldest princess before he left, so he looked at Zhou Huai eagerly, waiting for her instructions.

Zhou Huaina couldn't see what she was thinking, but he just said lightly: "It really can't be delayed."

If it drags on, if war breaks out, it will be even more impossible for her and the eldest princess to be in chaos.

The current situation is very good for her, except for the slow progress of the relationship with the eldest princess, everything is going well.And she did wait for a long time.

For those who have no future, eight years is a lot of patience.

In the dungeon at this time, the eldest princess didn't know that Zhou Huai had made certain decisions.

Of course, she may not be in the mood to know now.At this time, one of her and Liao Qiwei was inside the prison, and the other was outside. Although they were separated by the railing, they were both in a bit of a panic.

The night slowly faded away, and all the darkness and cruelty gradually returned to calm as the darkness dissipated. Only the dazzling crimson splashed everywhere and the bloody smell that hadn't faded away in the air proved that what just happened here What kind of life and death struggle.

The eldest princess spoke first: "When your bait is useless, she will kill you."

"and then?"

Liao Qiwei asked back, his tone was indiscriminate between joy and anger, and his expression was calm.

"We can make a deal."

"I will not betray her."

"Even if she wants to kill you? Do you think it's worth it?"

Liao Qi smiled with a calm expression: "I know it's dangerous to fall in love with her, but I clearly know that I have already moved my heart. Love is deeply rooted, hopeless, irreparable, and irreversible. If this is the case, is it worth thinking about it?" It’s worth the extra effort.”

It is no surprise that the eldest princess will be attracted by the mysterious and dangerous Zhou Huai to Liao Qiwei, and her affection is as deep as the sea, but she doesn't want to give up on getting what she wants from Liao Qiwei, so she still said: "This palace can To save you, you don't need to betray her."

"Oh, what about the conditions?"

"Tell me, how many private soldiers does she have? Where are they hidden?"

"Private soldiers? Do you mean the millions of workers under her command? I know a little bit about this. It seems that they are divided into seven or eight places and are building something..."

"Don't talk nonsense that everyone knows." The eldest princess interrupted the other party, and said with a serious expression: "If you continue to delay, no one will really be able to save you."

Liao Qiwei stared at the princess with sarcasm, and said in a flat tone, "Save me? So many people who were about to rob the prison just now died under the new weapon she developed. Are you sure that your people can still succeed? Also, You probably don’t know that the Northwest is now in a state of martial law where you can only enter and cannot enter.”

After Liao Qiwei finished speaking, seeing the princess in a daze, she murmured a little self-deprecatingly: "She wants my life, so who can save me? Since it's her, I don't need anyone to save me."

"Does she know that you are so affectionate and have no regrets?" The eldest princess looked a little anxious, and she didn't want to write any more with Liao Qiwei, so she directly stated her purpose: "I thought that there would be no regrets." Here, I have already shown my sincerity, since Ms. Liao doesn't trust me, then let's just say goodbye, and there will be no future."

"Wait, tell me about your plan?"

"As long as I tell her that I want to save your life, she should agree, right?"

Questioning words, but the expression is very confident and determined.Since you dare to speak out, you must be sure.The eldest princess looked calm, and she was not polite to Zhou Huai's obvious use.

Hearing this, Liao Qiwei looked at the eldest princess's ostentatious expression, his face remained unchanged, but his eyes turned gloomy in an instant, staring coldly at the eldest princess for a long while, and then said: "The eldest princess who advertises herself as upright and has no private integrity, so it turns out It's such a person who seeks things out of love! Since that's the case, why don't you ask me what to do, wouldn't it be better for her to tell you directly?"

"Is it unreasonable to provoke Bengong, or do you think you have enough leverage to negotiate terms with Bengong?"

"It seems that Your Highness is very reluctant to save grassroots people. In fact, I admire Your Highness. I have been with her for so many years, but I have gained nothing, and now I am still in such a state. If I had thought of selling her secrets for profit , should be rich and powerful now."

Hearing that she held Zhou Huai's secret, the eldest princess turned a deaf ear to her sarcasm, but slashed Liao Qiwei's brows like knives and said: "Public is public, private is private. A deal, saving you doesn't mean that the palace is not good." Hate you."

"Coincidentally, I hate you too. In addition to the hatred of exterminating the clan, I hate you so much that I want to kill you."

"That's really a pity." The eldest princess knew that she would not be able to pry Liao Qiwei's mouth open, so she was not too surprised. After speaking, she turned and prepared to leave.

But the moment she turned around, she saw a person who shouldn't be here appearing behind her.

"Zhou Hao?!"
