The next day, the county governor was already waiting for him in the court. As expected, a delicate and pretty youth appeared beside the Fourth Prince. It was the youth that he had seen last night. He rolled his eyes and welcomed the man with a smile.

Xiao Sui's eyes were still a little swollen, but she followed behind Shi Jinchen with an expressionless face, disregarding that county. Fourth Prince also looked at that dog-legged Zhi Prefecture with disgust, intentionally or unintentionally pulling his Xiao Sui closer to his side. "Return to the capital today, I want to make some preparations."

"What, you don't plan to stay in Fourth Prince for a few more days?" When the County Lieutenant heard this, he immediately bawled for her to stay.

"Are you deaf? Or do you think This King has nothing to do like you? " Shi Jinchen replied impatiently. Actually, he had a feeling that his Xiao Sui was not well today because of what he had done last night. However, he had only wanted to make a joke out of her, and did not expect that she would be so unruly (You want to die, you'll regret it in the future).

Fourth Prince had already said that he was going to return to the capital, and this county knew that he wouldn't be able to keep him, but yesterday he received an unexpected piece of information, and didn't know if the higher ups would give him an official promotion if he were to report it …

But of course, he couldn't wait until he became an official, because after Shi Jinchen met the Emperor, he had ruthlessly given him a copy. This county officer could even evade small matters like this, so what was the use of leaving him behind if he couldn't do anything good?

After the emperor heard this, he also felt that the imperial government did not need that many worms. He turned around and threw the black muslin hat on his head to the people under Fourth Prince.

At this time, he had just returned to the capital, and felt that this "broken sword cliff" had something to do with Xiao Sui. Therefore, he ordered Xiao Sui to stay in the Palace of Fourth Prince without a care for the protests of the Xiao Sui, and even let the old steward watch over her.

After heading to the palace, Shi Jinchen simply told the emperor about the information he had found out, but hid the matter of "broken sword cliff" from him, because he knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Since this organization dared to make a move on the imperial officials, then the mastermind behind the scenes was most likely the people in the imperial court.

"This son is worried, so I investigated in private and discovered that it was actually an anti-imperial organization from the martial arts world. But rest assured royal father, this son will naturally settle this matter well!"

The emperor in the hall nodded his head in satisfaction. "Chen'er is getting more and more like what I was like back then. With you supporting me and the two of you working together, I won't be able to call upon you forever!" Saying that, he continued, "I know that you and General Zhennan have a good relationship, but I trust you. I believe that you will naturally not disappoint me."

"Don't worry, your son will definitely live up to his expectations." Trust, is something that cannot be overdrawn. And you, royal father, had already overdrawn your strength long ago, on the day of mufei's burial.

On the other side, the pitch-black palace was completely silent. Jian Qiuying knelt on the ground and respectfully looked at the azure-green screen in front of them. Behind the screen was a vague shadow of a person, this must be the master he was talking about.

"Where is the moonlight? Why didn't you bring her back with you? " That old voice carried a trace of gloominess, and every time the Jian Qiuying heard it, a cold intent would uncontrollably arise in their hearts, "Master, Yue Hua is still at the side of Fourth Prince, this subordinate wishes to bring her back, but she …" Jian Qiuying wanted to say something but stopped. He did not know whether he should speak the truth.

"What happened to her?"

"This subordinate wanted to bring her back that night, but it seems that Xiao Yue had something else that is difficult to say. She rejected this subordinate's request and said that she was" Xiao Sui "right now, so this subordinate thought, master must have given Yue Hua some other mission, otherwise how could Yue Hua be like this?"

"Nonsense!" When had he ever given Yue Hua a special mission? It was clear that Yue Hua was not willing to come back herself! Ke Yuehua left my post without permission, and I am going to personally capture her! In the next few days, the matters within the cliff shall be temporarily handled by the Right Protector. "

Ke Zheng turned around and disappeared as soon as he finished speaking, as he anxiously looked at the green screen, "Xiao Yue, please don't be like how I thought you were …"

Knowing that the Ke Yuehua was currently in the Fourth Prince Palace, the Ke Zheng naturally found her without any effort at all. He only looked at the pure and cute girl below the tree and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

Ke Zheng was a person who had watched the moonlight grow up. Naturally, they knew best what kind of person she was. He had accidentally run into Ke Yuehua at the brothel, and at that time, he was ordered to assassinate an official. After killing the person and setting fire to the person, he had originally wanted to escape, but who would have thought that the bodyguard beside the official was really troublesome, slashing his left leg and causing him to almost collapse under the pressure of the beam.

After escaping, he noticed the little girl who had been supporting him all this time. She had thin limbs, and wore the old clothes of a servant, and although she looked weak and frail, she had a pair of bright black eyes, and those eyes were filled with a strong desire to live and to become stronger. It was these eyes that allowed Ke Zheng to bring her along.

Because this girl did not have a name, and because the night was shining brightly under the moonlight, he decided to give her his own surname, "Ke Yuehua".

Afterwards, he was pleasantly surprised to discover that although she looked frail, she had a good talent for martial arts. At that time, there were a few children raised by assassins in the organization. However, only Ke Yuehua stood out in the mass murder. She remembered that during the selection of weapons, some of the others had chosen swords or sabers, and some had even chosen hidden weapons. However, Yue Hua was the only one who picked the hardest weapon, the "spear", that no one else had been able to avoid.

The spear was difficult to learn in the first place, so the male disciples tried their best to avoid choosing it. Only the moonlight allowed the spear to come to life in her hands.

It was precisely because of this that Yue Hua's position within the "broken sword cliff" grew higher and higher. However, whether it was because of the influence of the fire from that night or some other reasons, whether it was her duty to carry out tasks outside the sect or training her spear in the cliff, she was dressed like a fiery-red woman. Furthermore, because she often wore a veil, her victims often didn't even know who had killed them.

After that, Ke Zheng took in the moonlight as his foster daughter and spent a great deal of money to make her a custom-made red tasseled gun. He remembered the smile in her usually emotionless eyes as she received it, and then she started dancing under the tree at the bottom of the cliff.

That was a scene that the assassins on the cliff would never forget for the rest of their lives. At that time, it was autumn, the fall of all living things, and moonlight danced under the red maple tree where the leaves fell.
