"You...who are you?" She held her breath and wanted to step back.

The man was not in a hurry. He stood by the bed and stared at her delicate face, and announced his family background: "I am Qi Xiao, the famous flower-picking thief of Xihe Kingdom."

Hearing this, Qingchen couldn't help but feel fear rising in his heart.

Is this man a flower picker?

I really didn’t expect that the professions written in the storybook actually exist in this world?

"Are you really a flower-picking thief?" Qingchen asked in disbelief.

Qi Xiao laughed loudly: "Is this still fake?"

Qingchen hid his hand behind his back and held the dagger tightly, comforting himself in his heart not to be afraid, "Since you know my identity and dare to treat me like this, are you really not afraid of being wanted?"

"Hahaha, you, the little princess of Dongming Kingdom, are really naive. There are so many wanted notices about me out there. You have to really catch me." Qi Xiaoke was not afraid at all, "Besides, you But it is well known in our country of Xihe that our Majesty will not even ask for fifteen cities for you, just to marry you back. If I don’t come to pick you, it will really be an insult to my reputation as a flower picker."

"Really? What you said is too exaggerated. I haven't heard it at all." Qingchen held the dagger and tried to extract his words bit by bit.

Qi Xiao reached out and pinched her smooth chin, looking at her face through the moonlight, "I have seen a lot of beauties, but there are not many beauties like you who are not afraid after hearing my name. The little beauty looks so good It’s a bit tender, but I still like it.”

As soon as the sound fell, he was about to kiss him, but Qing Chen stabbed his chest with the dagger hidden behind him. Qi Xiao quickly dodged it, and when he saw the dagger in her hand, his eyes lit up with excitement, "Sure enough, it's different. My little beauty. You are not afraid of hearing my name, but you want to kill me?"

Qingchen held on to the dagger tightly, and his eyes turned cold: "Tell me, who sent you here?"

This was her first night in Xiga Country, and she suddenly encountered such a thing.

She didn't believe that the person in front of her was not instructed by anyone.

No matter how you say it, she heralds the hope of peace between the two countries. If she is defiled as soon as she enters the Xihe Kingdom, wouldn't this suddenly arouse the resentment of the Dongming Kingdom?

So if it were an ordinary flower-picking thief, he really wouldn't trample the peace between the two countries at will.

Ordinary people know how important peace between the two countries is to the development of the country.

What's more, this person is not an ordinary person at all!

Hearing this, Qi Xiao was stunned for a second, and then laughed again, "You little princess, you are not stupid. How did you think that someone sent me here?"

"Are there any ladies in the palace? Or your Majesty's brothers?" She laughed, looking at the bright light of the dagger, "But you have such a brain and such skills, what can you do wrong? You have to do such a disgusting profession, you can't do it." Aren’t you afraid of getting sick?”

"..." Qi Xiao swallowed. He listened to what she said before, but what she said next made him even more angry. "The flower-picking thief is a sacred profession. What do you know?"

"It can also be called a sacred profession to specifically pick out beauties who have no strength to restrain themselves. You are not a good thinker."

Qi Xiao smiled angrily and approached her, "It doesn't matter whether my thoughts are OK or not. Wait a minute and see if I, as a man, can..."

Before he could finish his sentence, his neck suddenly felt cold.

The light of the long sword touched his eyes, making him freeze in place.

"I don't know if it's okay or not, but don't move if you don't want to die." A cold voice came from behind, making Qi Xiao's back shiver.

When did this person come? His Qing Gong was so good that he didn't even notice when he entered the wing.

"You..." He was about to look back at the source of the voice, but the long sword on his neck cut open his skin.

The stinging pain on his neck made him take a breath.

"Aoki?" When he saw a familiar face, Qingchen was stunned for a second, then got out of bed and walked towards him, "You...why are you here?"

"The emperor asked his subordinates to secretly escort the princess to Xihe Kingdom." Seeing the small figure walking towards him, Aoki's eyes fell on her pink face and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she wasn't too late and she was fine.

When Qingchen heard this, his watery eyes filled with light.

He really has himself in his heart, otherwise why would he send such an important person around him to protect him?

It turns out that my efforts were not in vain.

He just doesn't want to tell him the truth. Maybe he thinks it will be better for him if he doesn't know the truth.

Qi Xiao turned around and saw Qingmu's handsome face, and snorted coldly: "It turns out that the little princess has a concubine, no wonder she is not afraid."

"His mouth is so dirty, tie him up." Qingchen snorted and lit the candle.

Qingmu tied the man up, and then Qingchen saw Qi Xiao's appearance clearly, "He looks pretty good, but his character is not that good, and he is still considered a flower-picking thief."

She fiddled with the dagger in her hand and looked at the tied man. The tip of the dagger lightly scratched his face, "Do you think I should make a cut here, or..."

As he spoke, the tip of the knife slashed downwards and stopped on his lower abdomen, "Should I just cut it underneath and ruin your career?"

When Qi Xiao heard this, he immediately struggled nervously, "Don't, don't... look at you, a soft and soft little princess, how can you be so shameless? How can you always talk about a man's private parts..."

"Then if you don't want to become little Eunuch Qi, you have to answer my questions well."

Qi Xiao frowned. Although he didn't want to violate his professional code, he didn't want to lose the happiness of his lower body, so he could only nod his head, "Princess, what do you want to know?"

"Who sent you here?" Qingchen put away the dagger and asked coldly.

Qi Xiao reluctantly responded, "King Yan."

King Yan?

Who is this?

"King Yan is your Majesty's younger brother." He explained. Since he wanted to tell the matter, he never thought about cooperating with King Yanshan again, and he was already prepared to be hunted down by King Yan. "He It’s just that if something happens to you, Princess, in the Xihe Kingdom, it will cause dissatisfaction in the Dongming Kingdom. This will provoke a war between the two countries, and he wants to reap the benefits.”

"Aren't you the one who wants to put the blame on King Yan?" she said matter-of-factly.

Qi Xiao almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, "I told the truth, and if nothing happens to you tonight, my mission will be considered a failure, and I will be hunted down and killed by people sent by King Yan."

"It seems that you would rather become the little Eunuch Qi than tell the truth!" Qingchen shook the dagger in his hand.

"Everything I tell is the truth." Qi Xiao became anxious, "No matter how hard I tell the truth, no one believes it."

"How do I know if you were sent by someone else to blame King Yan, thus destroying the brotherly relationship between His Majesty and the others?"

"You little princess of Dongming Kingdom..." Qi Xiao snorted disapprovingly, "Everyone in Xihe Kingdom knows that Your Majesty and King Yan are not on good terms."

Qingchen was silent for a long time. It had nothing to do with who He Lanyan disagreed with. The most important thing was that now that Qingmu was here, it would be much easier to let Qingmu take her away.
