After Mingyan finished speaking, she left Yuxuanyuan, leaving Zheng Minghui alone in the courtyard: "Xia Lian, help me pack my things and prepare a carriage..."

"Yes, Second Miss!" Upon hearing this, Xia Lian saluted respectfully.

An hour later, Xia Lian followed Zheng Minghui to the gate with her baggage on her back. Butler Xue bowed her head and said, "Second Miss! Please get in the carriage!"

The attitude is respectful and polite, without any perfunctory attitude!

"Yeah! Thank you!"

After saying that, Zheng Minghui and Xia Lian got on the carriage one after another. The carriage was very spacious and comfortable, and there was also a plate of delicious snacks!

I guess Butler Xue was also worried that she would get hungry on the way to Changshou Village... which was quite considerate!

"Second Miss, where are we going?" Xia Lian, who was sitting in the carriage, looked up at Zheng Minghui with a puzzled face and said every word.

Hearing the sound, Zheng Minghui looked at Xia Lian and said, "Let's go to Changshou Village now!"

"The Shangshu Mansion is far from Changshou Village and it takes two days and two nights by carriage! Second Miss, you have never been far away, can you bear the bumps back and forth?" Xia Lian looked at Zheng Minghui's words with some worry. said.

"It's okay!" Zheng Minghui looked at Xia Lian and said with a faint smile.

The carriage was driving on the road, and the wind was blowing. After walking for an unknown amount of time, the carriage suddenly stopped: "What's going on? Why did the carriage stop?"

Xia Lian shouted out of the carriage in confusion.

But no one responded outside the carriage. The master and servant looked at each other, seeing the same confusion in each other's eyes. Zheng Minghui opened the curtain of the carriage. Butler Xue and the coachman fell in front covered in blood. The carriage was surrounded by a group of people. People in black were surrounding them. Seeing this, Zheng Minghui quickly lowered the curtain: "Xia Lian is full of people in black outside. Housekeeper Xue and the coachman are dead. Remember, when I drive the carriage later, you must stay in the carriage." Stay still and don’t move..."

"Okay!" Xia Lian glanced at Zheng Minghui timidly before speaking.

……

A rough voice came from outside the carriage: "Miss Zheng Er, your carriage has been surrounded and you haven't come out yet!"

Hearing the sound, Zheng Minghui and Xia Lian looked at each other. It turned out that the man in black was coming for her!

Before I could react, another voice from outside came into my ears: "Today, I have been ordered to take the head of Miss Zheng Er and go back to deliver... The others can spare their lives..."

Hearing the sound, Zheng Minghui wondered: Who is it? To try to kill her, she should have never had any grudges with anyone, so how could anyone send someone to kill her!

Siji said to Xia Lian: "Wait a minute, you drive the carriage and leave here first!"

"This... what should you do, second lady?"

Xia Lian looked at Zheng Minghui with some worry!

"Xia Lian, please leave first. I will find a way to get out of danger..." He looked at Xia Lian and said with relief.

Xia Lian couldn't resist Zheng Minghui and had no choice but to agree: "Okay, that slave will go back to the house to report to the master and his wife and ask them to send someone to rescue you..."

"Ok!"

After saying that, Zheng Minghui opened the curtain and looked around. The carriage was also surrounded by dozens of killers in black!

He sneered in his heart: He wanted to kill her, so he sent so many people here. The mastermind behind it was really impatient!

"I'm out, you keep your promise, let the people in the carriage leave me and let you do whatever you want!"

Zheng Minghui looked at the leader of the black-clad killers with cold eyes and spoke word by word.

The killer in black looked at Zheng Minghui, especially the birthmark on her face, which was momentarily dazzling: "You are the second young lady of the Zheng family!"

"Exactly!"

Zheng Minghui straightened her back and looked coldly and arrogantly at the black-clothed killer!

The black-clothed killer waved his hand behind him: "Let this carriage leave!"

"Yes!"

The killer in black immediately made way for the carriage to break out of the encirclement!

After watching the carriage leave, Zheng Minghui breathed a sigh of relief: "Who ordered you to take my life?"

With a cold word, the voice was as cold as if it came out of an ice cellar!

"Miss Zheng Er, please forgive me for the inconvenience. We in Shadow Pavilion will never betray our employer! Think about it for yourself, who have you offended and who are trying to kill you! I will give you one thousand taels of gold. We are taking your life to survive. Please Miss Zheng Er, please don’t blame me for waiting..." The sword in the black killer’s hand buzzed!

Shadow Pavilion!

Zheng Minghui was puzzled: Who could be so generous as to pay a thousand taels of gold just to take her life!

The employer mentioned by Shadow Pavilion must be of extraordinary status!

"Why are you talking so much to this dying man?"

Another killer in black scolded.

After saying that, the sword in his hand stabbed Zheng Minghui mercilessly...

"boom!"

Suddenly, a pebble knocked down the long sword that the black-clothed killer was attacking, and the sword broke into two pieces: "..."

When the black-clothed killer saw this, he looked around, but was shocked when he found nothing unusual. From the moment he entered the Shadow Pavilion, no one had ever been able to directly break his sword!

"An San, you can even cut off a sword, and you claim to be a master of the Shadow Pavilion. You're just laughing your ass off!"

A certain black-clothed killer looked at the black-clothed killer named An San with a sarcastic look!

"You... there must be someone around here secretly protecting her. I feel that that person has deep inner strength. He is no match for us!"

An San told the truth, said.

But the killer in black raised the corners of his lips with disdain: "I don't believe that anyone would bother to protect her..."

After saying that, the long sword in his hand attacked Zheng Minghui. An San was so anxious that his throat was filled with excitement: "Bang!" There was another sound, and the long sword of the black-clothed killer was shattered into powder by the stones!

The killer in black looked around, horrified: "Who is it? It's here, why don't you dare to come forward? Maybe it's because you are embarrassed!"

As soon as these words came out, there was only the whistling of the wind and nothing else!

Zheng Minghui looked at a big tree not far away, her eyes darkening as she thought that the person who broke their sword should be hiding in that big tree!

I wonder: Who will come to save her?

"Bah!"

Several hidden darts were fired at the black-clothed killer, and hit the black-clothed killer's wrist accurately. They looked at each other: "If you have an expert to help you today, I will spare your life if you are no match for me!"

After saying that, he left here!

Seeing the killers in black leaving the place, Zheng Minghui looked towards the big tree: "How long do you plan to stay in the tree? They have already left."

As soon as he said this, the person hiding in the tree was startled and jumped down immediately.

Standing in front of Zheng Minghui, "Who are you?"

"Miss, my subordinate was ordered by the regent to protect the second young lady in secret!"

Tell the truth, Tao.

Hearing the sound, Zheng Minghui looked at him doubtfully: "Where is the regent?"

"He has been waiting for you in the cross pavilion in front..."

The secret guard saluted respectfully.

After saying that, he disappeared without a trace!

In the cross pavilion, there was a chess game. Xuanyuan Hanyue frowned, presumably because the chess game took a lot of energy!

"My daughter pays homage to the prince!"

Zheng Minghui bowed down and bowed respectfully.

"No gift!"

Xuanyuan Hanyue then raised her head and looked at Zheng Minghui. There was an indescribable emotion in her eyes!

"My dear, thank you, Your Majesty, for rescuing me. I am deeply grateful!" Zheng Minghui looked at Xuanyuan Hanyue and said word by word.

"The King of Japan received news yesterday that someone paid a lot of money to hire someone from the Shadow Pavilion to take your life, so he has been waiting here..." Xuanyuan Hanyue picked up a sunspot and placed it on the left side of the chessboard.

"How did the prince know that my daughter would pass by here!" Zheng Minghui looked at Xuanyuan Hanyue in confusion.
