There is no point in saying more, just let it go.

Jun Zhao took out a familiar brocade bag from his arms.

He took out a light pink candy from the sachet and peeled it carelessly.

Mu Luan made up her mind, so she changed the subject. Just as she was about to speak, a white hand holding a light pink peeled candy appeared in her sight.

She was slightly startled, and a sweet mint smell came from her nose.

She looked up blankly at the overly elegant man standing beside her.

Who would have thought that the hand that always held a sword to decide other people's life and death in the previous life would actually appear in front of her holding such a pink thing.

But the man's eyes were clear, and he didn't think there was anything wrong, and he handed two more candies to her mouth.

Mu Luan's eyes flickered. The sinister Jun Zhao in her mind and the gentle Jun Zhao in front of her seemed to be fighting, making the scene in front of her become hazy.

She reached out to take it uncomfortably and put it in her mouth immediately.

Jun Zhao looked at the disappearing pink candy, then stared at the slightly pouting white cheek, his eyes dim and a little unhappy.

The cat is afraid of pain, so I want to give her a candy!

Who knew she would be so ungrateful.

I clearly didn’t eat it like this last time!

Mu Luan awkwardly turned her eyes away and randomly found a scene in the warm room to stare at.

But soon, the candy in her mouth attracted her attention.

The pink candy tasted different from any candy she had eaten before.

It's quite sour with a hint of cool mint.

It tastes good and cools the throat immediately.

He also called back her rationality and said, "Thank you for today, otherwise I would have suffered physical pain."

There was no ripple in Jun Zhao's narrow and long phoenix eyes. He lowered his hands and gently twisted his fingertips. He said in a gentle voice: "Miss, there is no need to thank me. This is what Mu Feng should do."

Mu Luan listened to him calling out her name casually, so skillfully as if the name itself was his.

She didn't say anything more and turned to leave, but Yun He's voice came from outside the warm room.

"Miss, the man from the outskirts of the city has been caught!"

Mu Luan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she took a few quick steps outside, asking anxiously, "How is it? Did that person say anything?"

Yun He raised his eyes and saw Jun Zhao following behind Mu Luan, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The warm room is connected to the young lady's main room, and only the young lady and her maids go in and out.

He didn't expect that there was an outsider here, and he couldn't help but blame himself for being careless.

Mu Luan noticed Yun He's alertness, turned around to look at Jun Zhao, and said, "It's okay, we're one family."

At least the defeat of the general's mansion in the previous life was not caused by Jun Zhao, so there is no need to doubt him at all.

Mu Luan said this casually but firmly. Not only was Yun He stunned, but even Jun Zhao's pupils trembled slightly.

People who have only known each other for a month can trust someone so resolutely...

Should I say she is stupid? Or is she really innocent?

A hint of light flashed across his dark eyes, and his mood unconsciously improved.

Yun He stared at Jun Zhao for a moment, lowered his eyes, and hesitantly explained the whole story.

He said, "That man ran all the way to the capital. He is a martial artist. After I caught him, I immediately brought him to the general and the eldest son. However..."

At this point, Yun He's clenched fists tightened a little more. "I didn't expect that man was not only a martial artist, but also a death warrior. He didn't say anything, and finally bit the poison sac in his mouth and committed suicide by taking poison."

"what!"

Mu Luan froze in place, feeling a chill rushing into her heart.

I finally caught a tail, but unexpectedly it broke off the tail in self-defense.

And who on earth wants the Mu family dead to the point of sending out assassins?

Mu Luan was still lost in thought when he heard Yun He continue, "Although the person is dead, the corpse can still speak.

I found a black scorpion tattoo on his neck, and the eldest master has sent someone to investigate the matter."

"Black scorpion tattoo," Mu Luan muttered to himself, and the image of the scorpion suddenly appeared in his mind.

Also at the neck, at...

Mu Luan narrowed her eyes and raised her hand to tap her head. She had clearly seen this tattoo before, but how could she suddenly forget where she had seen it!

The two people in front of him had different expressions, and they didn't notice that Jun Zhao's expression changed slightly when Yun He said the words "black scorpion tattoo".

Mu Luan suddenly had an idea, raised his eyes suddenly, and blurted out: "It's the shopkeeper of the black market!"

Yun He raised his eyes and asked in surprise: "Does the shopkeeper also have a tattoo on his neck?"

Mu Luan nodded heavily, but she could see that Yun He's expression looked a little strange.

Although Yun He was guarding the door that day, for Mu Luan's safety, he would pay attention to the movements in the pharmacy from time to time, and naturally recognized the owner of the pharmacy.

Yun He said solemnly, "That person is not the owner of a black market medicine shop. If the scorpion tattoo is related to the black market, it would be very difficult to find any useful value in it."

Mu Luan didn't understand, "Why?"

"The black market's network of relationships is complicated and cumbersome," a magnetic and clear voice sounded from behind Mu Luan.

Mu Luan looked over in confusion, and saw Jun Zhao with a calm face. He continued, "Anyone in the black market will have various tattoos on their bodies, and it is inevitable that there will be people with the same tattoos."

In other words, looking for clues on the black market based on just a tattoo is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Yun He looked at Jun Zhao suspiciously. Although he was wearing a guard's uniform, his aura was very imposing.

Rather than being a criminal slave with no identity or status, he is more like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins, as if he is not under anyone's control at all.

Yun He didn't understand why the young lady wanted to keep such an obviously dangerous person by her side?

It seems that he must monitor him more vigilantly in Shaoguangyuan in the future.

To prevent him from doing anything harmful to the young lady and the general's mansion.

Mu Luan felt a little melancholy. If someone else said this, they would definitely think twice.

But Jun Zhao was the one who escaped death from Youming Inn.

No one knows the situation in the black market better than him.

My brother has always been quick in doing things. I believe it won’t take long for him to realize that this clue is broken.

When Mu Luan was disappointed, she couldn't help but think of something else, so she asked Yun He: "Has Qiao Fugui's body been found?"

Yun He was embarrassed when he heard this. "As far as I know, Qiao Yuanan and others did not seal Qiao Fugui's coffin or erect a tombstone. Instead, they found a piece of wasteland to bury him. There are countless vacant lots in the suburbs, so it is not easy to find a burial place."

Mu Luan sighed softly, looking a little tired, with a hint of worry between her slightly furrowed brows.

If her father and brother had gone to Mobei a year earlier, if she remembered correctly, rumors would have spread in the capital in the next few days.

Although she had secretly arranged to spread the rumor, she had hit the snake at its most vulnerable part.

To deal with Jiang Yanyun and others, without solid evidence, we still cannot defeat them in one blow!
