Jiang Ruan raised her head again to look at the other party. When she backed away, the other party was already leaning against the door, blocking the door. His hand was covering a dark blue dagger at his waist. His eyes were so cold that he even called She could be calm, without any murderous intent, but Jiang Ruan believed that as long as she made a slight move, this man would wipe her neck with this sword.

This is simply a blatant threat.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Ruan walked forward slowly, her movements were deliberately slow, fully showing that she had no malice.

The young man stopped what he was doing and watched her walk forward. The distance between the two of them was only one finger's width, and they were already very close.

Jiang Ruan stood on tiptoe, her body only reached the other's chest, and with some difficulty she leaned close to the other's ear, lowered her voice and said softly: "I didn't see anything."

The young man's gaze turned cold suddenly, and he lowered his head to look at her. Jiang Ruan frowned, noticing that the other person was wearing embroidered silver-lin scroll pattern clothing, so he must not be an ordinary person. After thinking for a while, she continued: "Your Excellency hid here, so naturally you don't want to make things worse. If you kill me, I'm afraid there will be a little trouble. Although this trouble is not impossible to solve, it is not what you want."

"Who are you?" The handsome young man finally asked, his voice deliberately low and hoarse.

"The eldest daughter of Jiang Quan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War." Jiang Ruan said, Jiang Quan's status in the court is also considered important, and once this status can be used, she will use it without hesitation. I'm not afraid of any surprises. Firstly, in the memory of her previous life, the Jiang family did not have such an enemy. Secondly, even if it is really unfortunate, if this person really has any problems with the Jiang family, she must know that she is in a humble position in the Jiang family. The name of the prostitute will not have any influence on Jiang Quan.

There is no benefit to killing her, only possible troubles. Jiang Ruan has already spread out the benefits and disadvantages, and it depends on the other party's choice.

However, even though her face is calm at this moment, her heart is extremely cautious at this moment.

The other party's eyes fell on her, and Jiang Ruan understood that she was dressed in simple clothes, because she was deliberately ordered to wear old clothes that had been remade in Zhuangzi before, so she must be very embarrassed. I am afraid that the other party was doubting her identity, and said: "Wang Yushi and Officials and Li Mi are all in the men's compartment, if something happens to me, they will definitely be involved, and I'm afraid they will investigate for a long time."

The young man looked at her for a moment, then turned around and put away the weapon in his hand. Jiang Ruan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the other party was not going to kill her, but not necessarily because of her threat.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a black figure rushing in from outside, and he bowed to this person: "Master, it's done."

Looking at the moonlight, there are a lot of corpses lying here and there on the ground, all wearing night clothes, and all of them have a bloodstain in their throats, killed by a knife.

The person who called the young man the master looked up and saw Jiang Ruan was also surprised, as if he didn't expect that there were still people awake in the temple, he hesitated: "Master?"

Are you asking whether to kill someone? Jiang Ruan sneered in her heart, only to hear the other party say coldly: "No need."

Jiang Ruan thought quickly, these people must have come for this young man. In the short time just now, these people died without even disturbing other people in the temple. This person may have a lot of background. If it can be used...

She smiled suddenly: "Your Excellency, there are still fish that slipped through the net."

The other party was a little surprised and turned to stare at her. Jiang Ruan said, "Wait a minute." Then she got up and walked towards the next room. When Jiang Ruan came in, Lian Qiao asked, "Miss, look..."

Jiang Ruan shook his head, made a silent movement to her, and said softly: "You stay here." After speaking, he dragged the person on the ground with difficulty and walked towards the door. Lianqiao wanted to go out with her, but was pulled away by Luzhu, so she had to give up. Jiang Ruan dragged back and forth five times, and finally dragged all five people to that person.

The young man and the entourage beside him were all waiting for her to clarify their doubts. Jiang Ruan smiled: "These people have been caught in the smoke, they can't move their bodies, but their consciousness is very clear. Like the conversation I have with you right now, they all listen to it. Once I wake up, I don’t know what kind of trouble it will bring to Your Excellency. Therefore, I will send these people to Your Excellency as a favor, and please handle it.”

The same Xueye Gumiao was chased and killed, and the fate should be sympathetic. What she said was extremely generous, as if someone had taken a huge advantage, but the two people on the opposite side couldn't see the way of killing people with a knife, but what she said was very reasonable, the young man waved his hand lightly, and the entourage next to him raised his sword to Before, there were five cold lights in a moment, and the people on the ground were lifeless.

Jiang Ruan understood in his heart that if this person's followers are so clever, the master must be extraordinary, but he never showed up tonight, he must be avoiding something. Since he had to keep his mouth shut to avoid it, he didn't kill her, the daughter of the Jiang family, just because it might cause trouble, but these five inexplicable people can be dealt with at will. At first, he thought of doing it himself, but now that it is better to have a ready-made one, no matter what, he would not suspect her, and it was washed away very cleanly.

Thinking of this, the mood also inexplicably improved, Jiang Ruan smiled at the other party: "The road has been cleared, Your Excellency can go first."

The young man glanced at her, his black eyes made it difficult to see the emotion, he turned and walked towards the night with a surprisingly cold expression. Jiang Ruan stared at his back, thinking in her heart, such a handsome appearance, she had never seen it in her previous life, but she frowned tightly, when did Da Jinchao have such a person? Who is this mysterious man?

...

Overnight.

From the early morning of the second day, there were all kinds of noisy voices in the monastery, the door was knocked, and Li Mi's voice was somewhat anxious: "Miss Jiang, Miss Jiang!"

Jiang Ruan propped himself up from the bed, and told Zisu to go out to have a look, while quickly getting dressed, when he put on his coat and went out to look, a strong smell of blood came over his face.

Seeing that Jiang Ruan was fine, Li Mi heaved a sigh of relief and asked nervously, "Miss, are you okay?"

Jiang Ruan looked at him suspiciously: "My lord asks this, but what happened?" After speaking, he looked behind Li Mi, turned his head with a cry of surprise, and said with some fear, "This..."

There were corpses strewn about on the snowy ground, and blood flowed all over the ground, like a Shura field that had just been slaughtered, Zisu and the others stood in front of Jiang Ruan calmly.

Li Mi shook his head: "The thieves came here last night, and it's like this this morning. I'm afraid that something will happen to Miss Jiang, but it's okay."

Jiang Ruan frowned: "Then...why am I fine?"

"It should not be for you." Li Mi said seriously: "It may be ordinary revenge, but it did not hurt innocent people, but I have to stay and investigate this matter. Miss Jiang, my duty is, I'm sorry, I have to stay today." Come down, the rest of the journey is not far away, and Xiao Ma will escort you back to Beijing."

Jiang Ruan hurriedly replied: "Your Excellency, you don't have to worry about me. On the contrary, things here are important. Human life is at stake. If the murder happened here, everyone in the temple must be involved. I don't know if I can help."
