Tang Ke knew that there was no way to return to his previous life. The bookstore could make an exception to accept anonymous authors, but he would definitely not accept a killer.

Xiang'er knew that he had taken over the assassination mission of the prince, and would not forgive him.

It was because of Tang Ke's lies that he got together with him. Now that his identity as an assassin was exposed and the lies were completely exposed, Tang Ke knew that he would never like him again.

It might be better this way, the two of them will be completely separated, and Xiang'er will no longer be trapped in an unworthy person like herself.

But Tang Ke can't just stay in Chanyizong and be a shrinking turtle, "I still owe Xiang'er an explanation, and the bookstore can't just leave irresponsibly like this. You have to explain clearly before you can rest assured. I have to pay back part of the manuscript fee."

Xian Yu sighed and shook his head, knowing that his apprentice was stubborn, and he didn't want him to stay in the sect but still have a heart problem, so he said submissively, "You should recuperate for a few days, and when your body is healed, I will accompany you down the mountain as a teacher."

Tang Ke couldn't help it, and rested in the sect for another two days, but his spirit became worse and worse.

Thinking of losing her job at the bookstore, she was full of frustration, and thinking of Xiang'er, her heart ached even more.

Xian Yu saw that it was better not to raise him than to raise him, and it was useless to beat and scold him, so he could only accompany him down the mountain ahead of time.

It was getting late when the two arrived in the capital, so they decided to go back to the small house that Wu Liangsheng had rented to him to check the situation.

Wu Liangsheng's small courtyard was located in a secluded alley in the downtown area. When the master and apprentice turned into the alley, they immediately realized that something was wrong, and they looked at each other and nodded.

The whole alley seemed peaceful, but there were hidden guards ambush in the dark. Tang Ke roughly estimated that it was larger than the group that Wang Wang had followed him in Tongluo Lane.

Tang Ke held his sword and walked towards the house. Xian Yu grabbed him and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing? Sending you to death? Hurry up and retreat!"

Tang Ke shook his head: "I want to go in and find out the truth."

Xian Yu slapped him, "What's the truth at this juncture? Don't die!"

Whether this group of people are sent by the government or the follow-up ambush of the Xinghe gang, they must have something to do with Xiang'er. Tang Ke must find out what's going on, "Don't worry, master, I won't reveal himself."

After Tang Ke finished speaking, he already headed towards the house in a sullen manner.

Xian Yu gritted his teeth with hatred, regretting that he had raised such a donkey-tempered apprentice, but he had no choice but to go inside with him.

When approaching the gate of the courtyard, Xian Yu decided to split up with his disciples. Xian Yu searched the outside, Tang Ke searched the back room, and finally met at the corner outside the courtyard.

Tang Ke responded, turned over into the yard, searched around, but found no sign of anyone, and finally searched the hall, and saw a familiar thin figure lying on the edge of the collapse, sleeping soundly, his eyes burned instantly, and thousands of emotions flooded in. "Xiang'er..."

Tang Ke watched outside the window for a while, and made sure that Zhu Wenzhen was the only one inside, so he turned in, stepped forward, and squatted beside Zhu Wenzhen.

Zhu Wenzhen was a little thinner than when Tang Ke saw him last time, and his already thin body looked like it could be blown away by a gust of wind.

It must have been waiting too long. The oil lamp in the hall had been burned dry, and the moonlight poured in from the window, like silver frost falling on Zhu Wenzhen's hair and shoulders. Looking at that delicate and beautiful face, Tang Ke raised his hand and stroked him gently. cheek.

Zhu Wenzhen's eyelashes trembled, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Tang Ke, and shouted "Xiao Ke", with the confusion of just waking up in his eyes.

Tang Ke paused with his fingers, and shouted "Xiang'er" in a low voice, trying to explain the prince's assassination mission.

Zhu Wenzhen sat up and opened his mouth first, as if he had been typing a draft in his heart for a long time, "Xiao Ke, it doesn't matter if you don't like King Jing or you are an assassin, even if you never write novels in the future, and don't want to say those love words Give it to me, I still like you."

After leaving the Zhangjia teahouse, Zhu Wenzhen hated and complained, but after many days, those emotions were no match for his longing for Xiaoke...

He lowered his eyes and twisted his fingers uncomfortably, "Xiao Ke, let's make peace, okay? You lied to me like that before, I forgive you, I did something wrong, can you stop blaming me? You blame me for not caring about you How I feel, I can learn, I can change, no matter what I do wrong, change, can we... start over?"

Tang Ke just looked at Zhu Wenzhen quietly, unable to see clearly what emotion was in his eyes for a while.

Zhu Wenzhen was a little flustered, fearing that he would be rejected, he opened his mouth to save him, "I—"

He just uttered a word, but the rest of the words were blocked in Tang Ke's kiss.

Xian Yu buried his head and walked into the hall, "Boy, there is no situation outside the courtyard wall for the time being... what is the situation?!"

Zhu Wenzhen pushed Tang Ke away, and looked at Xian Yu in a panic.

Tang Ke turned his head with a smile and called "Master".

With a cold face, Xian Yu looked at Zhu Wenzhen vigilantly, "What's going on?"

Only then did Tang Ke let go of Zhu Wenzhen, let the master sit down, and went to light the lamp by himself.

Tang Ke sat down on the couch next to Zhu Wenzhen, and Xian Yu sat alone on the grand teacher's chair, looking at Zhu Wenzhen with distrust still in his eyes.

Zhu Wenzhen didn't mind, and said calmly: "The assassination incident a few days ago involved the Tian family, and all investigations are being carried out in secret. The Hou Zhang's family of Ding'an has done the aftermath work and sealed the news in the teahouse. Except for the people involved and the government people, no one else will know about it.”

"Xiao Ke's identity as an assassin...I didn't disclose it. Xiao Ke has meritorious service in this matter, and Zhang Shizi can also testify. As long as Xiao Ke's identity as an assassin is not exposed, he will not be implicated."

Speaking of this, Zhu Wenzhen looked at Xian Yu again, "Both the Chanyi Sect and the Xinghe Gang were involved in this case. The Xinghe Gang has been exterminated by order. Perhaps it is the government's next target. Uncle Xian, you and the Chanyi Sect have cultivated Xiao Ke. I don't want to see the entire Chanyi Sect be eradicated by the court, and I don't want to expose Xiao Ke's identity as an assassin. I hope You can trouble Xian Bo to send a letter back to the sect as soon as possible to hide his whereabouts."

This time when the matter of the Xinghe gang got out, the whole sect of the Chanyi Sect has stepped up their vigilance. They are a bounty hunter organization, and they are much more cautious than the idiots of the bandit gang. But after hearing what Zhu Wenzhen said, Xian Yu still sincerely thanks After his reminder, he said that he would seal a secret letter to Zongmen overnight.

But to what extent Zhu Wenzhen's words were true or false, Xian Yu privately thought that he still needed to secretly check again in these two days. His stupid apprentice was obviously dazzled by love, and he couldn't count on it, so he could only rely on himself.

Tang Ke held Zhu Wenzhen's hand, thought for a while, then looked at Xian Yu, "Master, shall I accompany you to deliver the letter first?"

Xian Yu looked at the tired and crooked looks of the two of them, and couldn't help but beat each other, "Go to hell! You little bastard stay here well, don't run out and make trouble, go to the handover point for the teacher, and check the other days. What's going on in the capital." After saying that, he turned around and jumped out of the window.

Tang Ke hadn't yelled "Master", and Xian Yu had disappeared.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at Zhu Wenzhen, "Are those hidden guards outside here to protect you?"

Zhu Wenzhen nodded, it was sent to him by the queen mother, "I told them to retreat ten steps away from the house, if Xiao Ke thinks it is inappropriate, I will send them back."

Tang Ke shook his head, "Let them follow you." Thinking of Zhang's teahouse, he asked, "How is Xiaobo?"

"No problem, I sent him back to his father's house to recuperate."

"You...how did you know that I took over the task of assassinating the prince?"

"I went to the prince's military training ground in Zhongshan a few months ago, and saw a group of people he bought. At that time, the prince was planning to send that group of people to King Jing's mansion. You were there, so I wrote it down."

Tang Ke remembered that day, not long after he came here, he was asked to go to the prince's training ground to fight in the arena. Later, he knew that he was going to be sent to assassinate King Jing, so he ran away overnight.

Thinking of this, Tang Ke couldn't help laughing, "Xiang'er has such a good memory? I just saw it from a distance, and when I saw it again a few months later, he could recognize me at a glance?"

Zhu Wenzhen nodded calmly, and looked at Tang Ke with a pair of innocent eyes: "Because Xiao Ke is good-looking, I took a few more glances at that time." After that, he directly raised his hand to take off Tang Ke's mask, "Xiao Ke will be here later. Don't wear a mask in front of me, I like your face and want to see it every day."

Tang Ke turned his head back and hid, and took his hand off with a smile, "I'll take you back to Luming Mountain Villa first. The capital city will not be peaceful until this matter is completely resolved. You should stop running around."

Zhu Wenzhen didn't respond for a while.

"What's wrong?" Tang Ke stared at him.

"I don't want to go back to Luming Villa."

Tang Ke laughed, "Where are you going if you don't go back to Luming Mountain Villa? You can't live here..."

He said casually, but saw Zhu Wenzhen looking at him expectantly with extremely serious eyes, Tang Ke was stunned, and asked seriously after a while: "Do you really want to live here?"
