Chapter 45

Seeing that Zhen Jiu was still silent, Cui Hengyue immediately understood. He immediately took off the purse on the other side of his waist, walked over and put it on the table:

"I don't have anything else on me, so this is just the medical fee. I ask the miracle doctor not to dislike it."

If she dislikes it, she will take it back, hum!

Ku Xuan looked at Cui Hengyue steadily, suspecting that she had just seen it wrong. Jiulang saved Cui Hengyue, so how could there be a fierce light in her eyes?

"what?"

Hearing Zhen Jiu's question, Ku Xuan came back to his senses and hurriedly opened his purse: "It's mung bean cake."

Zhen Jiu's face suddenly turned dark: "That's not it."

That's not it?

Cui Hengyue thought of what she left behind last time and immediately understood it, but she pretended not to understand and deliberately asked: "What is that?"

Zhen Jiu was furious, turned her face away, and said coldly: "The dried meat you left last time was pretty good, let's feed some more to the wild cats."

Feeding feral cats?

Cui Hengyue became suspicious and said: "Oh, you mean dried meat, last time... General Mu gave it to me, and I gave it all to you.

"I heard that the dried meat came from the country of Fujian. The imperial court rewarded some to the King of Chu, and the King of Chu gave it to General Mu. Now it is gone."

As soon as she heard that she couldn't eat any dried meat, Zhen Jiu's tone became even colder: "If you don't have dried meat for the consultation fee, even if you owe me a favor.

"In the future, if I ask you to kill people and set fires, you cannot refuse. You must go."

Cui Hengyue's anger was aroused again. She slapped her hand on the table with a fierce look on her face: "You want to order me? Humph, don't even think about it.

"Just wait, I will definitely bring you the meat jerky."

Putting down her harsh words, Cui Hengyue took away the mung bean cake purse and quickly left the room.

After Cui Hengyue left, Ku Xuan looked directly at Zhen Jiu with a complicated expression: "Do you like to eat dried meat?"

Zhen Jiu felt his hot gaze and turned her face away unnaturally: "Um...it tastes okay."

good?

I obviously like it very much, otherwise I wouldn’t have eaten it in one sitting last time.

Ku Xuan felt a little uneasy in his heart, he sat next to Zhen Jiu and whispered: "I have inquired about it, the dried meat is a tribute, and the King of Chu only got a little bit.

"The reason why the King of Chu rewarded General Mu with dried meat was because General Mu was a person he trusted.

"But based on General Mu's loyalty to the King of Chu, he would never give the things that the King of Chu rewarded him to others, so the dried meat last time was stolen by Miss Cui.

"Now you ask Miss Cui to give you breast meat again, she can only steal it again. If General Mu finds out, she will definitely be punished.

"Besides, there may not be any dried meat at General Mu's place."

Zhen Jiu: "..."

Ku Xuan looked at Zhen Jiu and shook his head: "Jiulang, you are making things difficult for Miss Cui. She is still injured."

Being accused by his servant, Zhen Jiu felt very unhappy and said angrily: "Since she dares to boast about Haikou, it means she can still get the meat.

"Besides, this is her business. Why do you, an outsider, worry about it?"

Kuxuan: "..."

"Okay, I'm an outsider, I shouldn't worry about it."

Ku Xuan put down these words, stood up and left the room.

Zhen Jiu felt very uncomfortable. Ku Xuan's words clearly meant something. He seemed... to have hurt Ku Xuan's heart.

As soon as Cui Hengyue walked out of the yard, she saw Yun Chen and Yun Lin standing outside. A trace of surprise flashed across her face, but she said nothing.

"follow me."

After Yun Chen finished speaking, he led the way.

Cui Hengyue followed.

Yun Lin walked at the end, scanning the surroundings with alert eyes.

An Ran returned to the side hall, Yun Chen asked Cui Hengyue to sit down, and then went straight to the topic: "What happened here before? How did your injury get worse?"

Upon hearing this, Cui Hengyue, who had just sat down, stood up again: "You still have the nerve to ask me? Didn't you let someone protect me? Didn't you let me rest here in peace? How could someone break in and get hurt?

I?

"Zhen Jiulang said that if I go later, my hand will become useless.

"Have you long disliked me and wanted to take this opportunity to turn me into a useless person?

"Is that so? Is that so..."

The more Cui Hengyue talked, the angrier he became. He walked towards Yun Chen and kept questioning him.

Cui Hengyue, who had just woken up from a coma, did not have much strength and her movements were very slow, but she had a powerful aura that made Yun Chen dare not look directly at her.

He couldn't help but lean back and stretched out his hand to stop Cui Hengyue from approaching: "I arranged for someone to protect you, but I didn't expect that the assassin's martial arts were so high, and he actually came and went without a trace, and was not discovered by my people.

"Besides, you didn't make a sound when you fought with that assassin, and the palace door was closed. How could my people know about it?"

When the guards outside the door heard these words, they were very excited. The captain really regarded them as his own people. Although he scolded them in private, he still defended them in front of outsiders.

Cui Hengyue paused and stopped one foot away from Yun Chen.

Although there was a man in black, he was outside the palace. She didn't see anyone at all after entering the palace. Yun Chen actually believed her lies?

So, the man in black must not have been caught by them.

She just didn't know if the man in black who appeared outside the side hall was the same man who helped her lure away the guards before...

With so many thoughts in his heart, Cui Hengyue's face was filled with anger: "I'm injured, how can I have the strength?

"Besides, I was knocked unconscious by the assassin with one move, what kind of sound could I make?

"You can't protect me, and you blame me for not making a sound to remind you. What's the point?"

Yun Chen: "..."

Yunlin discovered the key to Cui Hengyue's words. He interrupted and asked, "You mean you didn't see the man in black?"

"Of course I didn't see him sneak up on me from behind." Cui Hengyue said angrily.

Yunlin was a little disappointed.

Seeing this, Cui Hengyue was moved in his heart and said: "However, I smelled a fragrance at that time. It did not belong to the side hall. It should have come from the assassin."

Yun Chen was overjoyed: "What kind of fragrance?"

"Um..." Cui Hengyue pretended to be trying to remember, thought for a while, and then said: "It seems to be the fragrance of mung beans, and... mixed with the fragrance of other beans...

"Oh, right!"

Cui Hengyue slapped her head suddenly and suddenly realized: "That scent is the same as the smell on Su Biwen's body."

"When you were attacked by assassins here, Su Biwen and the others were imprisoned in the Dizang Pavilion." Yun Lin Liangliang said.

Yun Chen looked at Cui Hengyue unkindly: "Are you avenging a personal vendetta and trying to blame Su Biwen?"

Yes, that's what she thought.

Cui Hengyue's face darkened and he said angrily: "I said that the scent on the assassin's body is the same as the scent on Su Biwen's body. I didn't say that the person who broke in here and attacked me was Su Biwen."

Yun Chen was choked and looked a little embarrassed.

In order to relieve the embarrassment, Yun Chen stood up and walked a few steps sideways against the chair, away from Cui Hengyue.

"Let's go, I'll take you back to the North Cave..."

Cui Hengyue couldn't help but interrupt Yun Chen: "If Wenshu Pavilion is not safe, how can the North Cave be safe?"

Then, Cui Hengyue made a request: "I want to live in Guanyin Pavilion."
