Xie Lin shouted, "Wangshan."

Wangshan immediately walked out from the darkness and came in front of Hongqi.

"Miss Hongqi, the Third Master has made an appointment with Master Chengji to go to the pavilion on the mountain to admire the moon. If you are willing, you can come with us."

There is a small hill in the backyard of Xie's house. There are steps paved with bluestone slabs leading up to the hill. There is a pavilion built on the hill, which is a good place to enjoy the breeze and the moon on weekdays.

Hong Qi had very complicated feelings towards Cheng Ji. She was a pretty girl, for sure, but because she was Concubine Xie's woman, no man had ever dared to provoke her like this, but Cheng Ji did.

Even though she is Xie Lin's woman now, Cheng Ji can't help but fall in love with her. Hong Qi enjoys his inability to control himself towards her, which makes her feel infinitely charming.

It is only a matter of time before I can capture Xie Lin and sleep with him.

But she came to Xie Mansion to kill Xie Lin, and she didn't have time to spend time with Cheng Ji under the moonlight. His appearance had a somewhat bad influence on her.

But never mind, it’s okay for three of us to go together to enjoy the moon.

As long as she follows Xie Lin back to Qiyunxuan after watching the moon and helps Xie Lin to sleep, she will complete the task of killing Xie Lin tonight.

The news that "Da Qi is in danger and can only be saved by Xie Lin" has reached Concubine Xie. Concubine Xie is furious and orders her to act as quickly as possible.

Xie Lin must be killed before the emperor summons him out of curiosity or anger.

Therefore, Hongqi's mission time is very tight.

After Hong Qi's mind turned over and over, her brows and eyes gradually showed a gentle and kind smile: "Third Master and Master Cheng are watching the moon, and Hong Qi can serve by their side. It is Hong Qi's blessing."

Wang Shan said, "In that case, Miss Hongqi can go first and prepare some tea, fruits and snacks. The Third Master will go with Master Cheng after he is done."

Hong Qi responded: "Okay."

In the study, Xie Lin looked at Chu Heyi and said, "Brother is right. It's getting late. Miss Heyi should go back home."

Chu Heyi was both ashamed and angry. Not only did she not get his answer, but she also got the beautiful lady from his house.

He was already past the age of twenty, so it was normal for him to have girls around him, but she still couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

In their previous lives, they had no chance to consider lifelong events. She and he only had each other, and she never felt sad about such things.

"I just want to enjoy the moon and not do anything else. I'm not used to having a woman serving me when I sleep at night." Xie Lin suddenly said in a gentle tone.

Chu Heyi was stunned for a moment, and noticed that there seemed to be a hint of smile in his eyes, but when she looked closely, he was very calm, and there was nothing in his eyes.

Regardless of whether he was smiling or not, his words were enough to make her happy. Chu Heyi couldn't help but smile and said, "Then I'll go home. You're not feeling well, so don't enjoy the moon too late."

Xie Lin nodded, and watched her walk out of the study and disappear into the night with Chu Ren before he withdrew his gaze.

After a while, Wangshan came over and said, "Third Master, Master Chengji has gone to the small pavilion in the courtyard."

Xie Lin looked at the dark side that could not be illuminated by the candlelight and did not answer. After a cup of tea, he got up and walked towards the yard.

Hong Qi was already in the pavilion on the mountain, having prepared tea, fruits and snacks, waiting for Xie Lin and Cheng Ji to arrive.

The breeze was refreshing tonight and the moonlight was beautiful. She lifted her sleeve and sniffed lightly. It was a faint fragrance, which tempted Xie Lin to sleep with her tonight without any problem.

She heard footsteps coming from the foot of the mountain. She stood up and looked. It was Cheng Ji who came, but there was no sign of Xie Lin.

Cheng Ji was wearing white clothes, waving a fan, and seemed to be carrying a huge bag.

"The Third Master is still dealing with some housework. He will be here soon." Cheng Ji climbed the stairs, walked up to Hong Qi and said.

Hong Qi looked at his bag and asked, "Mr. Cheng, you're going on a long journey with your bag? Is it because Third Master is giving you a farewell party tonight to watch the moon?"

Cheng Ji took the bag from his shoulder and looked at Hong Qi deeply: "Are you talking about this bag..."

Hongqi was listening attentively.

Completely unprepared, an arrow was aimed at her from behind.

Until a sharp arrow shot from behind and pierced her heart.

Whoosh!

That was the sound of an arrow breaking through the air and piercing her heart.

She stood in the pavilion under the moonlight, in front of Cheng Ji, just like the night when she first came to Xie's house, wearing an apricot dress - Concubine Xie said that Xie Lin liked girls who dressed simply and elegantly.

Her skin, clothes, and hair all carried a faint fragrance. She was fully prepared to sleep in the same bed with Xie Lin tonight.

Just to kill Xie Lin on the bed when Xie Lin was completely satisfied with her.

But now an arrow pierced her heart, and her slender body shook. She tried to grab Cheng Ji to steady herself.

But Cheng Ji dodged to the side, avoiding her hand, and Hong Qi fell to the ground.

She held the arrow, her face pale, and looked at Cheng Ji, as if asking him what was going on.

At this time, Xie Lin and Wangshan came to her, Wangshan holding a bow and arrow in his hand.

Hong Qi's pupils shrank drastically, and she asked Xie Lin: "The person who shot me was Wang Shan?"

Xie Lin was wearing a light green brocade robe, spotless. He lowered his eyes to look at Hong Qi and said, "Lady Xie sent you to the Xie Mansion, and you became his woman. But you flirted with Cheng Ji and even gave up the wealth and glory of the Xie Mansion and eloped with Cheng Ji."

Hong Qi defended herself, shouting at the top of her lungs: "I didn't!"

Xie Lin responded calmly: "It's not important."

Hong Qi was shocked. She looked at Xie Lin intently and finally understood: "Third Master is plotting against me?"

The arrow pierced her heart and abdomen, causing unbearable pain and blood gushing out. Hong Qi realized that her life was slipping away, but her face was full of hatred and unwillingness: "Why did Third Master do this?"

Xie Lin's face was colder than the moonlight: "Otherwise, wait for you to kill me?"

"You actually knew? You knew everything..." Hongqi's pupils gradually dilated.

Wangshan walked forward wearing gold-wire gloves, stepped on Hongqi's shoulder, and pulled out the arrow without mercy. Hongqi immediately bled profusely, twitched a few times, and then became silent and died completely.

Wangshan squatted down, untied her hair, pinched her mouth open, and found poison in her hair, behind her teeth, and even between her fingernails.

Xie Lin's eyes turned cold: "Dispose of her body."

Next, Cheng Ji took the bag and a girl in an apricot dress and fled from Xie's house overnight. They were captured by Xie Lin's men overnight, but they were caught and ran away.

The next morning, the news that the girl that Concubine Xie gave to Xie Lin eloped with Xie Lin's good brother spread throughout Shengjing City and reached Concubine Xie's ears.

Lady Xie got up early today, waiting for the news that Hong Qi had successfully killed Xie Lin. However, the result was completely opposite to what she expected, and she blurted out on the spot: "This is impossible!"
