Princess Xiyue was in a state of shock and her chest was heaving.

After she patted her chest, she then said:

“Spending all my days hunting geese, I was almost pecked by a finch.

“Ugh, he’s going to run!!!”

Before she could finish her sentence, she realized that the little Taoist priest realized that something was wrong and ran away.

Jiang Ran casually took a steel needle, with a fling, with a snort, the steel needle penetrated one of that little Taoist’s legs, the little Taoist’s legs went limp, and after flipping in place, he regained his footing and continued to flee.

However, immediately following the second flying needle, it penetrated his other leg as well.

With both legs injured at the same time, he could no longer run.

Started to change to crawling on the ground ……

At the same time, two flying needles penetrated his arms.

This time, he was no longer able to continue.

Desperately mayfly chrysalis on the ground, but mayfly chrysalis can’t take a few steps.

Immediately after that, he felt a tightness at the back of his neck, and his whole body was lifted up.

When he turned his head, it was the old swordsman who had been hit by the March Green.

After throwing the person in front of Jiang Ran, Wang Heng clasped his fists to Jiang Ran, followed by a little bit of footwork, and retraced his steps back to the second floor.

“Don’t kill me …… don’t kill me!!!”

The little Daoist looked at Jiang Ran as if he had seen an evil spirit.

Jiang Ran would be rather disgusted looking at this bowl of wontons in his hand.

Originally, after adding the chili oil, this bowl of wontons had a delicious look.

Now the red chili oil and the blood on the table are dyed in the same color, so I don’t think I can eat it even if I look at it.

The shopkeeper of this wonton stall also ran away a long time ago.

Jiang Ran sighed, took out the silver, settled for three bowls of wontons, and placed them on the corner of the table.

His movements were slow and methodical, but for this young Taoist priest, it was the fear of a blunt knife stabbing flesh.

He always felt that Jiang Ran would kill himself with a slap after his last action was done, so he rushed to shout before that:

“If you kill me …… Linglong Pavilion won’t let you go!!!”

Ye Donglai and Princess Xi Yue looked up at Jiang Ran at the same time.

Jiang Ran was also a bit surprised:

“Linglong Pavilion?”

“That’s right, I’m from Linglong Pavilion! If you dare to kill me, Linglong Pavilion will definitely not let you go …… You will die, your family members will also die, but anyone related to you, no matter what they are, they will all die ……”

As the little Taoist monk spoke, a heart that was already in a state of seven, suddenly smoothed out.

Linglong Pavilion was incredibly powerful, absolutely no one would be willing to offend.

Although the martial arts of this person in front of him is powerful, but …… if he offends Linglong Pavilion, he is also a dead end.

And Linglong Pavilion do their own backing, he will definitely be fine today.

As a matter of fact, the only thing he regrets nowadays is that he didn’t tell Linglong Ting earlier.

After all, their target wasn’t this guy either, but this girl.

If they had said it earlier, maybe the man wouldn’t have dared to resist at all, and when the time came to kill the girl, they would turn around and leave, and who would stop them?

Jiang Ran didn’t know what was in his mind, he just frowned slightly:

“It is strange and weird …… this Linglong Pavilion I have not heard of it for a long time.

“I thought that after the end of the Green Country, Linglong Pavilion may not show up.

“But I didn’t expect that he is quite good at finding death ……

“Since you are someone from Linglong Pavilion, then I ask you, where is Linglong Pavilion?”

“…… What are you doing?”

Even though this little Daoist was on the verge of being a little bit out of his mind, he could hear that Jiang Ran’s words contained absolutely no good intentions.

“What are you worried about?”

Jiang Ran said with a smile:

“Linglong Pavilion is so divine, if I go, I’ll be throwing myself into the net.

“The most important thing you should do nowadays is to tell me where the Linglong Pavilion is, so that I can go and get myself killed.

“Maybe, you can also make this great merit as a result?”

“……”

The little Daoist froze, only feeling that Jiang Ran’s every word was filled with convincing power.

So much so that after a little bit of thinking, he actually said seriously:

“Linglong Pavilion …… is now in the Imperial Capital.

“The Hundred Fragrance House in the Imperial Capital is Linglong Pavilion’s property.

“Nowadays, every evening at midnight, Linglong Pavilion has a secret gathering.

“Those who attend can buy anything from it …… including human lives.”

“Buy anything?”

Jiang Ran glanced at this little Taoist priest, which subconsciously wanted to reach out to support his chin, but after glancing at the blood on the table, he had to put it down resentfully:

“Then let me ask you, can I buy that dragon chair underneath the Qing Emperor’s ass?”

“Huh?”

Even no matter how powerful Linglong Ting was, she had never thought of revolting.

Now that he heard Jiang Ran say this, this little Taoist priest’s entire body was dumbfounded, and he subconsciously shook his head.

Jiang Ran then smiled:

“It seems to be nothing more than that ……”

As the words fell, he pressed his hand on the little Taoist’s head.

The little Taoist didn’t even grunt and fell to the ground, directly dying of gas.

“This wonton is uneatable.”

Jiang Ran glanced at Ye Donglai:

“Let’s go, let’s go back to Envoy Official …….”

As he spoke, he reached out and called Wang Heng from the second floor down, telling him to go and inform Tang Painting Yi and the others.

Wang Heng led the order to go, Ye Donglai then said:

“It’s not safe in the embassy either ……”

“Don’t worry, there’s me.”

Jiang Ran said:

“Moreover, it’s only for a while that it’s not safe. After settling down a bit, bathing and changing clothes, we’ll go straight to the palace and ask to see the Qing Emperor.”

As long as the Princess of Autumn Leaves’ identity is used to meet the Qing Emperor.

Then Princess Xiyue no longer needs to hide, this matter to here, is considered to be completely solid.

Ye Donglai was a sharp person, and after hearing Jiang Ran’s words, he also understood the meaning, and immediately nodded his head:

“It’s not too late, let’s go.”

The three people were no strangers to the location of the embassy, Jiang Ran had once personally brought Princess Xi Yue to see this place.

Therefore all the way to the embassy was fast and furious, and soon had arrived where the embassy was.

Ye Donglai coming over was naturally unimpeded, and the Qing Emperor behind him, even if he wanted Princess Xi Yue to die no matter how much he wanted to, it was impossible for him to let the people from the embassy take action.

In these two days, Ye Donglai had also arranged the rooms and such.

Along with Ye Donglai came to the Qing Dynasty, there were also corresponding military officials, also brought some manpower, but at this time it was too late to introduce Princess Xi Yue and Jiang Ran to get acquainted.

Leading Princess Xi Yue to the door of a room, Ye Donglai said:

“Your Highness, this is the room that was originally prepared for you,” he said.

“All the affairs inside have been prepared, just …… no maids of honor.”

“No harm done.”

Princess Xiyue’s character was also a bit unconventional, not the kind of weeping noble girl.

Reaching out, she pushed open the door and was about to enter, but suddenly turned back to Jiang Ran:

“You also come in.”

“Huh?”

Ye Donglai was stunned, and immediately looked at Jiang Ran, and hurriedly said:

“Your Highness, this …… this isn’t right, right?”

“What if someone assassinates this palace within the room?”

Princess Xi Yue said:

“At this time, if he is not there, who will watch over the life and death of this palace?”

Ye Donglai was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Ran was indeed a world-class martial artist, the few Linglong Pavilion killers that appeared on the street just now, if they fought alone, they would most likely only be able to deal with one if they put their lives on the line.

This person in front of him is like killing a chicken, one hand, no pressure.

After pondering for a while, he had no choice but to nod his head:

“Just this matter, must not be spread out ……”

Jiang Ran also nodded along:

“It makes sense, it must not be spread out!”

“Hmm?”

Ye Donglai felt that these words were very odd, as if they were unfavorable to his princess.

If this guy in front of him had bad intentions and was not allowed to spread it out, wouldn’t that be God’s way of not realizing it?

But if the word is spread, in case nothing happened to them, this guy is really a gentleman, then the princess’s reputation and how to be good?

For a moment this can be described as a dilemma to the extreme.

“Alright.”

Princess Xi Yue glared at Ye Donglai:

“If he is a newborn with bad intentions, can this palace still stand here and talk to you now? Go and return quickly.”

“Yes.”

Hearing this, Ye Donglai did not say much more and turned around to leave.

Jiang Ran also followed into Princess Xi Yue’s room.

After locking the door to the room smoothly, he realized that Princess Xi Yue was looking at herself:

“What for?”

“…… Ahem, this palace has always believed that you are a decent person, so when this palace bathes in a while, you …… you must not peek.

“Even if you look, you can’t do it.

“Even if you want to do it, it can’t be now ……”

Princess Xiyue said while continuously letting out her bottom line.

“……”

Jiang Ran rolled his eyes a huge one:

“Princess also please respect yourself, and take a mirror to have a look, I have no interest in you, a dried up girl who has not yet grown up and is not yet milky.”

One sentence, since Princess Xiyue was at ease, and made Princess Xiyue furious.

After fiercely glaring at Jiang Ran, she started rummaging through the boxes.

The rows were essential, all in the cabinet, she took them out one by one and prepared them.

Ye Donglai had also ordered someone to get hot water.

Taking advantage of her rummage through the cupboard, let people put the hot water outside the door, to wait for people to leave, Jiang Ran brought in.

In the end the two people across the screen, one removed their clothes and entered the water, the other sat behind the screen and closed their eyes to rest.

This particular scenario was still full of peculiarities.

For Princess Xi Yue, this was even the first time in her life.

In the past in the palace, even eunuchs were not allowed to come in while she was bathing.

Not to mention, now there was an able-bodied man in the room.

This bath had just begun, and it was so hot that it made one dizzy.

To go on like this was not a solution, she decided to break the silence and talk to Jiang Ran, it would probably be quite a bit better.

So she took the initiative to speak:

“Why are you called the Amazing God Sword?”

“…… Because I know the Nine Blades of the Frightening God.”

This was a completely un-nutritious conversation.

Princess Xi Yue immediately reacted with a dry laugh:

“I forgot ……”

“Hmm.”

“Then what do you do at Golden Cicada?”

“Knife catcher.”

“A knife catcher? Helping people write articles? No, you should be catching wanted criminals for the court, right?”

Princess Xi Yue suddenly became interested:

“Isn’t this kind of life exciting? Having to constantly fight against the powerful and all sorts of experts?

“Often traveling between life and death?”

“…… It’s not very exciting, and there’s no need to do battle with the powers that be.”

Jiang Ran replied honestly:

“As for experts, there are indeed quite a few, but none of them are as high as me.

“The powerful, if they are, often don’t dare to do battle with me. ……”

“……”

Princess Xiyue felt that this person is a pity, a good face, but as a result, a long mouth.

This day is letting you chat to death ah.

Then she asked again:

“What is your relationship with the Golden Cicada’s eldest princess?”

“…… Can you bathe properly?”

Jiang Ran was speechless for a while:

“Scrub more mud and talk less.”

“Where is there mud on me!?”

Princess Xi Yue was furious, was this calling herself dirty?

“Then how would I know ……”

Jiang Ran crossed his legs:

“And don’t you dare to show me on this topic, I don’t want to see it.”

“Who wants to let you look!?”

Princess Xiyue hated that she couldn’t have a purple and gold hammer in her hand right now to ruthlessly blow this asshole’s head off.

And just then, Jiang Ran suddenly moved.

Princess Xiyue’s heart froze when she heard the sound of a coat:

“What are you doing?”

Jiang Ran, on the other hand, had already arrived at the window of the room, and in the street in the distance, there were galloping horses coming.

“It seems that the next move has been finalized.”

Jiang Ran said softly:

“This time it’s coming hard ……”

“What what?”

“There’s a group of people coming from outside.”

“Could it be that they intend to arrest me as a wanted criminal?”

Princess Xiyue frowned:

“Even the Qing Emperor can’t create a crime out of nothing, right?”

“Not necessarily.”

Jiang Ran sneered:

“If he had someone mix into the embassy and pose as a villain, and then sent people to apprehend them, the two sides would end up fighting in a chaotic mess.

“Then taking advantage of this chaotic energy, he killed you and framed the villain.

“And what shall you do?”

“…… The hearts of men are truly deceitful.”

Princess Xi Yue immediately asked:

“Then what do we do?”

“It seems like you won’t be able to stop this bath.”

Jiang Ran said:

“Come out quickly, wipe yourself clean, and change your clothes into something good.”

As he was saying this, the sound of horses’ hooves stamping had already come from in front of the embassy door, and after the neighing of the horses, only a voice could be heard shouting:

“This general has received a secret report that there are devils of the Devil’s Cult, who have mingled in the embassy, and wish to do mischief.

“By order of His Majesty, the embassy is to be sealed off, and all persons must come out to be examined.

“If you disobey, kill without pardon!”

Just after these words, Ye Donglai had already arrived at the door, clanging and knocking on the door.

Jiang Ran opened the door to his room, and saw that Ye Donglai had already changed into a court dress, and after seeing Jiang Ran, he hurriedly asked:

“How is Your Highness prepared? There is a group of people coming outside, and the visitor is not good …… only afraid of another plan.”

Jiang Ran nodded:

“Well, you follow me.”

Ye Donglai agreed and was about to follow Jiang Ran into the room when he heard Princess Xi Yue shout loudly:

“Don’t come in!!!”

Ye Donglai immediately looked at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran frowned slightly:

“Then you wait here for me first.”

With that, he re-closed the door to the room.

Ye Donglai stood outside the door, and for a moment a heart went up and down, thinking, “Why don’t you let yourself in? Why was Jiang Ran allowed? What exactly was happening in the room that he couldn’t let himself see?

At the same time the situation outside, also made him worried.

In a hurry, he had to come to the corridor window to look out.

He saw that the general at the head had already gotten down from his horse, and the soldiers behind him were lined up, about to rush in.

But just at this moment, a sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded.

When Ye Donglai reacted to what happened, he found that the general’s head on the war helmet has more than a hole, blood gurgling from the cheeks flow, the whole person directly across the ground, dead on the spot.

This scene really caught people off guard.

Behind a group of soldiers are all dumbfounded, and the general’s vice general, reaching out to explore, the brain is more buzzing:

“General …… General is dead!!!”

“It’s the devil’s disciples of the devil’s religion who did this!!!”

“The devils are within this embassy ……”

“Let’s kill inside and avenge the General!!!”

This one who had just finished avenging the general’s death, his head tilted in the next moment, and he also died on the spot.

The whole crowd was in chaos.

Pedestrians watching the fun, but also fearful, and those soldiers, is everyone’s self-protection, who do not know the next death will not be their own.

They all took their weapons and cautiously went to look at the embassy window.

Jiang Ran, on the other hand, had already walked away from the window at this point and casually asked:

“How’s it going?”

“A person is a bit troublesome ……”

Princess Xi Yue said:

“You still have to give me a little time.”

“Don’t worry, my party bought a little time.”

Jiang Ran said casually.

“…… Why does it seem like chaos outside, the general is dead? Did you kill him? Is that how you bought time?”

Princess Xi Yue Fang was busy working on the clothes on her body and didn’t care about the commotion outside.

It was only at this moment that Fang heard the panicked voices of those soldiers.

Jiang Ran then frowned:

“Less prying, hurry up and dress properly. Wear it well and let’s go.”

“……”

Princess Xiyue was speechless for a while and finally stomped her foot and said:

“I can’t, you come help me!!!”

Jiang Ran didn’t hesitate when he heard this, and directly walked through the screen, and sure enough, Princess Xiyue’s clothes were already on, and there was nothing on her body that was leaking outside.

Only the various types of small decorations on her body, pendants, were troublesome.

Some of them were still on her back, and she couldn’t handle them by herself at all.

Jiang Ran casually helped out, he had the Seven Dexterous Heavenly Worker’s Hands, and the sharpness and flexibility of his fingers were not something an ordinary person could have.

Princess Xiyue originally called him in or asked for blindness, did not think Jiang Ran can really help her.

But she didn’t expect Jiang Ran to be as helpful as a god:

“You are good, or not turn around you do this palace’s maid ……”

“…… You either rethink, what did you say?”

Jiang Ran’s tone was calm.

Princess Xiyue immediately winced and coughed, saying:

“This palace …… I was just joking.

“You don’t take it seriously.”

“Alright, get it done.”

Jiang Ran took a step back at this time, Princess Xiyue turned around and slightly surveyed, Jiang Ran gently nodded:

“You didn’t wash your face in the bath just now?”

“It’s too much of a hassle to freshen up again after washing.”

“It’s still considered to be carrying a clean slate.”

Jiang Ran smiled:

“Let’s go.”

With that, he walked out of the screen, opened the door to the room, and dragged in Ye Donglai, who was lying in the doorway, not knowing what he wanted to hear.

The soldiers downstairs had also been unable to hold back at this point and began to rush towards the embassy one after another.

Jiang Ran, on the other hand, grabbed Princess Xi Yue with one hand and Ye Donglai with the other.

With a swaying figure and a whirring sound, the window opened and closed, and the person had already arrived outside the embassy.

Just before he landed, he saw that Tang Yuyi and the others had also arrived.

“Let’s go, let’s go to the palace!”
