As soon as True Man Longbrow said this, the whole audience instantly fell silent.
The woman’s face turned slightly red, like a lotus just budding, extremely shy.
Uncle Zhu had a kind smile on his face.
As for Ye Qiu, he glared at True Man Longbrow and scolded angrily: “You old thing, don’t fucking talk nonsense.
“Where did I talk nonsense?” True Man Longbrow said: “You and Miss Rou’er are a perfect match. Uncle Zhu, do you think what this poor Taoist said is right?”
“Right…” Uncle Zhu subconsciously responded, then turned his head to look at the woman and quickly closed his mouth.
The young lady’s marriage was not something he could talk too much about.
True Man Longbrow spread his hands: “Little brat, you see, even Uncle Zhu thinks you two are a good match. Do you still think I’m talking nonsense?”
“Get out of here.” Ye Qiu scolded.
“Hmph, a dog bites Lu Dongbin, not recognizing a good heart. True Man Longbrow snorted coldly and turned to walk in the front of the corpse of the man in black to search for the spatial rings on their bodies.
Ye Qiu said apologetically to the woman: “Sorry, this friend of mine just likes to talk nonsense. Don’t mind.”
”It doesn’t matter.” The woman smiled slightly and said, “Young Master Ye, thank you so much tonight. If there is a chance in the future, I will treat you to tea.”
”Okay.” Ye Qiu smiled and then said, “These assassins are not simple. Uncle Zhu, did you offend some force in the Great Wei at some point? Otherwise, why would these people come to kill you?”
Of course they came for the young lady’s identity.
Uncle Zhu knew it like a mirror in his heart, but pretended to know nothing and said, “I’m also wondering why these people came to assassinate the young lady?”
Ye Qiu looked at the woman and said, “Just now, through the shots of the three men in black I found that they are well-trained and not like ordinary people.”
Uncle Zhu was shocked: “Young Master Ye, do you mean they are professional killers?”
Ye Qiu shook his head and said, “I have dealt with killers before. Killers pay attention to a single strike to kill. If they can’t kill the target, they will immediately retreat and never stay.”
The means of these three are more like those of people from the military.
Uncle Zhu was stunned: “Soldiers?”
Ye Qiu nodded: “I think so.”
Uncle Zhu looked at the woman. If the assassins were really soldiers of the Great Wei, then this matter might not be so simple.
Just then, the Long-browed True Man came back.
”Damn it, I’ve never seen such poor bastards like them.”
“Apart from dozens of spirit stones in the spatial ring, there is only a broken token. What a waste of expression.”
“Token?” Ye Qiu said: “Old thing, show it to me.”
The Long-browed True Man threw the token to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu took it and saw that the token was square, only as big as a matchbox. It was cast from bronze. On the front, the three words “Jinyuwei” were engraved, and on the back, a pattern of auspicious clouds was engraved.
“Do you recognize this thing?”
Ye Qiu handed the token to the woman and Uncle Zhu. Suddenly, Uncle Zhu’s face changed drastically.
Although the woman’s face remained calm, a trace of imperceptible haze flashed in her eyes.
Obviously, they recognized this token.
“Young Master Ye, can you give this token to me?” The woman said softly.
“Of course.” Ye Qiu handed the token to the woman.
When the woman took the token, her finger accidentally touched Ye Qiu’s finger. Like an electric shock, she quickly retracted her hand.
Ye Qiu pretended not to notice this detail and said: “This token should represent the identity of the man in black.”
The woman said: “I will investigate this matter clearly. Young Master Ye, it’s getting late. You should rest earlier.”
Obviously, she didn’t want to continue talking about this topic.
“Okay, you should also rest earlier. Old thing, go to sleep.” After saying that, Ye Qiu turned around and went upstairs.
When passing by the woman, True Man Longbrow said with a smile: “Girl, the poor Taoist calculated with his fingers and found that the Red Luan Star is moving. It seems that you will get married soon.”
“However, can you consider Ye Qiu?”
“He is really very good…”
Before True Man Longbrow could finish speaking, his ear was grabbed: “Little bastard, let go quickly, it hurts…”
“You talk too much.” Ye Qiu smiled apologetically at the woman, and then went upstairs while grabbing True Man Longbrow’s ear.
On the ground.
The woman looked at the two previously dead guards and said to the two remaining guards beside her: “Give them a thick burial.”
“In addition, after returning to the imperial city, send a pension to their families. They died because of me, and their families cannot be left to worry about their livelihoods.”
“By the way, also deal with the bodies of the assassins.”
“Uncle Zhu, come with me.” After saying that, the woman took Uncle Zhu upstairs.
In the room.
The woman took out the token and asked: “Uncle Zhu, what do you think?”
Uncle Zhu’s face was solemn, and he said: “This is the token of the Great Wei Golden Guard.”
“The Golden Guard is the personal soldier of the Wei King.”
“Could it be that the three men in black were ordered by the Wei King to come and assassinate the young lady?”
The woman asked: “What kind of person is the Wei King?”
Uncle Zhu said: “I have never seen the Wei King, but I always hear the emperor mention him, saying that the Wei King is ambitious and always wants to unify Zhongzhou.”
The woman asked again, “Then do you think, why would an ambitious king send someone to kill me?”
”Definitely to disrupt the marriage alliance!” Uncle Zhu said. “I guess that the Wei King is worried that the Great Zhou will join hands with the Great Qian.”
The woman said, “I haven’t even gotten married yet. How could the Wei King be sure that the Great Zhou will join hands with the Great Qian?”
”Since the Wei King is ambitious, how could a person like him take action easily?”
Uncle Zhu seemed to understand the woman’s thoughts and asked, “Miss, are you saying that the identities of those three are fake?
”Their identities should not be fake. Didn’t Young Master Ye say that they are well-trained?” The woman said. “I think that it is possible that the Wei King doesn’t know about the Golden Guard coming to assassinate me. They are being instructed by someone else.”
Uncle Zhu said, “The Golden Guard is under the Wei King. Besides the Wei King, who else can command them?”
The woman’s eyes flickered for a moment and said, “In this world, there is nothing absolute.”
”Let’s not think about this matter for now. We’ll investigate it after we return to the imperial city.”
”Uncle Zhu, how is your injury?”
”It’s all healed.” Uncle Zhu smiled. “Thanks to Young Master Ye. He not only saved me today but also treated my injury and even gave me a top-grade Heaven-level pill. His character really makes me admire.”
”Miss, I think Young Master Ye…”
Before Uncle Zhu could finish his sentence, he heard the woman say, “Uncle Zhu, it’s getting late. Go back and rest.”
Uncle Zhu was stunned for a moment before saying “yes” and turning to leave the room.
As soon as he left, the woman picked up the peach blossom placed on the table, and couldn’t help but think of the scene when Ye Qiu gave her the peach blossom, lost in thought for a while.
”Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu, what kind of person are you exactly?”
