When Gong Xiaoxuan heard the shouts from behind him, he carried Baili Jinxiu and turned to leave.
Gong Xiaoxuan's martial arts naturally could not be caught just because he wanted to. Baili Jinxiu also took out the veil covering his neck and tied it to his own face.
He looked behind him and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Prince, something's not right."
"This King knows." Gong Xiaoxuan didn't even need Baili Jinxiu to remind him; just by listening to the footsteps behind him, Gong Xiaoxuan knew that something was amiss.
Just now, the secret guards had already lured away the nearby guards. Of course, the secret guards trained by Gong Xiaoxuan were not that stupid.
He really did go personally and let the guards chase after him. That way, the entire palace would be alerted.
The dark guards only needed to lay down some leaves or throw some rocks.
The imperial guards had to maintain a high level of vigilance against such a move. He definitely needed to check it out. Once he checked it out, wouldn't he just leave?
Gong Xiaoxuan turned around while carrying Baili Jinxiu, when a person suddenly scuttled out in front of him.
When Baili Jinxiu just got close to the other party, he already heard the system's notification sound.
Baili Jinxiu shouted anxiously: "There's poison, be careful!"
He turned his hand and the detoxification powder was already in his hand. Seeing that the other party was going to attack Gong Xiaoxuan and himself after all, Baili Jinxiu turned his hand.
All of the powder had already been scattered towards the opponent, who froze in his movements, and was forced to stop his attack on Gong Xiaoxuan.
On the hand that was raised, Baili Jinxiu saw a bright dot all of a sudden.
Silver Needles...
As it turns out, the other party was from the same clan as him, and they used silver needles to add poison to their poison.
Of course, Baili Jinxiu was not so arrogant as to think that she was the only person in the world who used silver needles like that.
And in this short period of time, Gong Xiaoxuan had already started fighting with the opponent.
Even if Gong Xiaoxuan was carrying Baili Jinxiu, he was still the person that Baili Jinxiu and Baili Jinxiu had the most mutual understanding with each other.
Gong Xiaoxuan hugged Baili Jinxiu and dodged, then fiercely kicked him. The other party turned around in a flash, and the silver needle in Baili Jinxiu's hand had already pierced into his opponent's spinal cord.
The other party dodged hurriedly, but Baili Jinxiu had already pierced his acupuncture points.
But before Baili Jinxiu could rejoice, a large group of guards suddenly chased after them. Gong Xiaoxuan carried Baili Jinxiu and immediately leaped up the roof.
The man in black from before had disappeared in the blink of an eye, though no one knew how he had managed to dodge it.
When Gong Xiaoxuan carried Baili Jinxiu back to the Duke Palaces, Baili Jinxiu touched his empty hands and said somewhat regretfully.
"He lost the silver needles again."
Feng Wuhen had made those silver needles for her, they were extremely exquisite. In this world, it was impossible to match those silver needles.
Even the medical needles in the space couldn't be used as weapons because they were too brittle.
Therefore, Baili Jinxiu still cherished those silver needles.
"Give the silver needles to This King." Gong Xiaoxuan looked at Baili Jinxiu's pained expression, and a hint of understanding flashed past his eyes.
Gong Xiaoxuan had obviously touched that silver needle before. It was indeed a rare treasure.
especially for Baili Jinxiu, it could be said to be a treasure that allowed him to swim as easily as a fish in water.
How many times had Baili Jinxiu relied on the silver needles to barely escape death? However, Gong Xiaoxuan naturally had a way to find other treasures for Baili Jinxiu.
However, Baili Jinxiu did not know what Gong Xiaoxuan was thinking, and only passed one of the silver needles to Gong Xiaoxuan, thinking back to how the man looked, he asked Gong Xiaoxuan.
"Prince, don't you think that the black-clothed man from before is a little familiar?"
Gong Xiaoxuan paused, but still shook his head. That person only appeared for a short period of time, so because Baili Jinxiu wanted to sneak in an attack on him, he suddenly approached the other party.
And because the other party had poison in his body, even though Gong Xiaoxuan was not afraid, he did not approach him.
"Who do you think it looks like?"
Baili Jinxiu rubbed his fair chin, thinking about how he had just caught a glance of. Although it was just a glance, he had already seen the man's eyes.
It was a pity that the sky was too dark. He could only catch a glimpse through the moonlight.
The man's eyes didn't look like those of a young man. They looked a little older.
"Does Prince feel that person as a man or a woman?" Baili Jinxiu asked for clues from Gong Xiaoxuan, who answered without hesitation.
"It's a woman."
Although Gong Xiaoxuan did not approach the other party, he still looked at his bones and cultivation technique.
If the man was an assassin, he wouldn't have stopped because of Baili Jinxiu's poison powder.
Without mentioning anything else, at least that person knew of his and Baili Jinxiu's identities, and thus had some scruples.
Baili Jinxiu rubbed his chin and guessed: "That person was extremely familiar with the layout of the palace, so he must be someone from the palace.
"Could it be …"
Baili Jinxiu looked at Gong Xiaoxuan and asked softly, "Could it be the empress's men?"
Gong Xiaoxuan's gaze darkened. Ever since the empress was beaten into the cold palace, Gong Xiaoxuan no longer cared about his.
It was not just because of his background, but also because Gong Xiaoxuan did not plan to save the Empress from death just because he knew that the Queen would kill him when he turned around.
However, after hearing Baili Jinxiu's words, Gong Xiaoxuan decided to investigate thoroughly.
"There will definitely be a commotion tomorrow for tonight's matter." Gong Xiaoxuan reached out and took Baili Jinxiu's hand, bringing Baili Jinxiu into the house.
Baili Jinxiu chuckled, and followed Gong Xiaoxuan into the house, where the bright moonlight shone on the ground.
The smile on Baili Jinxiu's face looked crafty as he held Gong Xiaoxuan's hand and said that.
"I don't know, but it turns out that not only does the Moru Country Princess Sa Ya know the art of bewitching, even the Princess Mingxi is an expert."
Gong Xiaoxuan let out a cold laugh when he saw the appearances of Emperor and the others just now.
Baili Jinxiu held Gong Xiaoxuan's shoulders and said: "Then Prince, do you plan to have a big show tomorrow?"
Gong Xiaoxuan originally did not take this matter seriously, but now that he saw Baili Jinxiu's eager look, he suddenly stopped.
Baili Jinxiu was still holding onto Baili Jinxiu's small white hand, but when he looked into his eyes, they became more and more profound.
Baili Jinxiu raised his smile and looked at his Prince's Ice Mountain face.
"What did you do?" Gong Xiaoxuan was sure that Baili Jinxiu had treated it as something, or else.
How could his own Little Princess be so joyful?
