Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

Chapter 250 The Queen's Assassination and the Prince's Rescue

Xu Yuanchao knocked on the door gently a few times. Ran Qianxi thought that it was Tan Qianhuan who came back again so she didn't open the door.

"It's me, Yuan Chao."

When she heard the word "Yuan Chao", she suddenly smiled and opened the door eagerly.

"Why are you here? I thought you went back."

"I didn't go back. I wanted to talk to you."

"Say it, it must be said, come in and say it."

Ever since he admitted that he fell in love with Ran Qianxi, his sharp personality has changed a lot, and love has made him unusually gentle.

"What did Shu Xuanhe talk to you about just now?"

"It seemed like he was advising me to stay away from Tan Qianhuan, and he also asked about Tan Qianhuan's whereabouts during the New Year."

Hearing this, Xu Yuanchao suddenly became nervous, because the ambush had already been planned. They were just waiting for Tan Qianhuan to be halfway through his journey and lose his position so that the ambushed guards could kill him in one fell swoop.

"Speaking of the New Year, he will go back with you, right?"

No matter how Ran Qianxi listened, she felt that he was trying to trick her, so she didn't want to say anything more.

"I do not know."

"If you go back to Jizhou with him, you will be in danger."

"Ahhh, have you decided to kill him?"

This sudden incident turned Tian Gang upside down, and Xu Yuanchao was subconsciously stunned.

"You don't need to know that..."

His answer and consent were undoubtedly clear, and Ran Qianxi felt a surge of worry in her heart.

"Oh, that's his and Baili Yong's business. I just want to avoid involving you. After all... you have such charming eyes."

Xu Yuanchao suddenly raised his eyes, and an almost charming face came close to him, and untied his belt before he said anything.

"Yuan Chao, please take care of me~"

The temperature instantly rose to the melting point. Xu Yuanchao couldn't stand it at all, nor did he want to.

The two of them hugged each other tightly, not on the bed or on the couch, but just in front of the tea table, they couldn't stop possessing each other.

After a long time of lingering, Ran Qianxi squatted beside his legs and raised her head. His hand was still on her bun, still unsatisfied.

"I'm a little tired of squatting."

Looking at his lover with a blushing face, he smiled and carried her to the bed.

"Close your eyes and rest~"

In the living room, Xiahou Chen fell asleep leaning on Bai Wenxiao, and was picked up and taken back to the room.

Three days later—

The weather was getting colder and colder, and Laba Festival was approaching soon. Baili Yong's words about the Queen of the West Palace at the Qianqiu Festival had been lingering in Xie Jun's mind. In addition, he went out of the palace to visit her despite the cold weather, and his murderous intent could no longer be concealed.

As the day of Ran Qiongxi's return drew closer, Ran Qianxi felt inexplicably anxious, so she went out of the city to burn incense and pray for safety.

She made a wish in front of the Buddha, asking him to bless her so that she would not repeat the same mistake in her life. When she put three incense sticks into the incense burner, she suddenly wanted to cry without any warning.

The way back was quiet, so quiet that even the sound of the wind could not be heard. She had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, and sure enough, she was ambushed by assassins just two miles away from the temple.

"Amitabha, I just burned incense."

Sui Xue protected her tightly behind him. Although she had some fighting skills, they were just child's play in the eyes of these killers. She couldn't even delay time.

At the critical moment, Ran Qianxi used her eloquent tongue.

"Brothers, I'll give you triple the amount!"

The killer leader smiled faintly and was obviously not convinced.

"I don't ask for money, I only ask for life."

"Ah, no, no, no, no, you guys have to have a family to feed yourself, so I won't make it difficult for you. Five times, just give me a light blow and then go back and report."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Her humor suddenly made the vicious killer laugh.

"It only took one cut."

With the knife raised horizontally, Ran Qianxi took out three thousand taels of silver in astonishment, and the killer really stopped the knife.

"The Hakkas gave five thousand taels."

Hearing about the high price of the hidden flower, Ran Qianxi couldn't help but be stunned.

"What? Who is so willing to do that? Do you need to pay so much to kill me?"

"Hahaha."

The leader smiled again and said, "What a pity to wash such a beautiful woman. Why don't I ask for no money? You can go back with me and live your life. I will find a corpse to replace you."

"No, no, no, I don't think we are suitable..."

The killer, who was politely rejected, suddenly looked sharp and raised his sword again.

"I'm so sorry!"

As the sword was about to fall, Ran Qianxi quickly clasped his hands together!

"It's over, it's over, spare my life!"

Unexpectedly, the sword did not come down after she finished speaking. She opened her eyes tentatively and the killers seemed to have a new target.

Shu Xuan and Fu Shan stood in front, with two bodies lying silently on the ground.

The leader looked him up and down and stabbed him with his sword. Shu Xuanhe raised the corner of his mouth, put away his fan and rushed forward. His internal force created a strong wind, and he quickly passed through the encirclement and cut a clear path. After several confrontations, the leader was pushed back several meters!

This scene surprised Ran Qianxi who was standing aside again.

"Is he that powerful?"

Sui Xue: "The King of Jibei is the best. With his abilities, he doesn't need so many moves."

Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader gave the order to retreat, and Xie Jun's efforts were once again in vain.

The storm subsided, and Ran Qianxi walked forward and bowed.

"Thank you, King Shen, for saving my life."

"Hahahahaha, can the Second Miss also be so reasonable?"

"Although I'm annoying, I still have some basic courtesy. Since you helped me, just tell me how you want me to repay you."

Shu Xuanhe opened his folding fan and took a few steps forward. Ran Qianxi did not dodge this time.

"Are you serious, Miss?"

"Well, tell me what you want."

He closed his fan, lifted her chin and moved closer, his eyes full of aggression and desire.

"you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he kissed her on the lips!

Sui Xue turned around in shock, Ran Qianxi closed her eyes reluctantly, but the initiator's eyes were wandering, he didn't know why he was so crazy and absurd!

He suddenly let go of the prey in his hand and turned around.

"I told you to stay away from Tan Qianhuan for your own good."

"Why is he involved again? This wave of assassins is obviously coming for me. Baili Yong's concubines must be afraid that I will enter the palace and cause them to lose their favor, so they want me dead."

Shu Xuanhe, who could see through people's hearts, turned his head slightly.

"You may not even know it, but you are protecting him."

After he finished speaking, he fanned himself and left.

"It's not safe in the forest. Return to the city as soon as possible."

His implication was that Ran Qianxi should hurry up and catch up, but after taking a few steps, she heard no sound behind her. When she turned her head around, she found that it was Ran Qianxi who could not keep up with her pace.

"Second Miss, are you not afraid of death? You walk slower than a snail."

Ran Qianxi suddenly ran towards him like a timid and helpless child, making him laugh.

"It seems that the second girl is also afraid of death."

"nonsense!"

By the time she ran to his side, she was almost suffocating. She reached out to hold onto the tree, but Shu Xuanhe, who was already burning with desire, pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply.

Ran Qianxi was so scared that she raised her hands instantly. Shu Xuanhe, who couldn't control his greed, kissed her deeper and deeper, and she could already hear the sound of choking.

After a deep kiss, he suddenly pushed Ran Qianxi against the tree, and his lips moved freely on her earlobes and neck.

The hoarse breathing became more and more uncontrollable, and Ran Qianxi had to use all her strength to push him away.

"Mad?"

She straightened her ripped collar and left, and Shu Xuanhe's eyes suddenly showed a sense of guilt.

"wait for me."

Sui Xue could see as if she were blind at this moment, and followed the two of them embarrassedly.
