"Thank you, Your Highness!" ex-sister-in-law and the others were already used to Shui Xian's attitude, and could tell that Shui Xian did not like his master, but they also understood why. Prince Xian did not comment on her attitude, and felt that his master was not a good husband.

Prince Xian had a bad reputation and liked to flirt with women. Although he was more beautiful than women, what was the use of being beautiful? Look at the Shui Xian beside him, they all hated him.

"There's no need to be polite, it's just a small matter." Mu Qiu Shui laughed faintly, and Shui Xian snorted coldly: "My prince, what do you mean by 'easy'? You're risking your life just like that …" She wanted to complain a little, but seeing Mu Qiu Shui's gloomy eyes looking at her, she bitterly shut her mouth.

Xi Jiu Er leaned on the horse carriage with a dark expression and did not speak. This time, not only did she almost lose her life, she also took a large majority of the silver notes and followed the horse carriage and disappeared. Fortunately, there were some at ex-sister-in-law. Otherwise, he would have to drink the entire journey to the northwest wind.

"I'm glad to see that all of you are fine." Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips: "Tell me what you think."

Liu Shui muttered to himself for a moment before continuing, "Miss feels that this time, it is directed at you."

The ex-sister-in-law nodded her head in agreement with Liu Shui's point of view: "Miss, I think the same. I heard Liu Shui say that the crossbows used by the bandits are not ordinary crossbows and thought that they were invited at a heavy price."

Liu Xiang frowned slightly, "Miss, Servant feels that other than First Lady, I can't think of anyone else who wants your life.

Xi Jiu Er's eyes became colder: "I'm afraid she is, other than her, I can't think of anyone else who would want to kill me." The carriage travelled forward, and the carriage behind also discussed the matter of the assassination, but they were discussing whether the one killed was Mu Qiu Shui or not.

"How's the investigation going?" Mu Qiu Shui closed his eyes to recuperate, his expression a little tired, but his tone was like the omen of a storm.

Shui Xian did not dare be careless, and immediately reported back in a righteous manner: "Royal Highness, this matter is very strange, they are well-trained and nimble, they do not seem to be normal robbers who kill people, this subordinate will send people to investigate but will find nothing, but I am certain that they are not my people, as for the target of their investigation, this subordinate thinks that it would be you, your highness, if it was Miss who killed them, why are you looking for these people? They are powerless, even if Liu Shui is skilled, he would not be able to protect so many people in an instant … "

Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head: "En, continue investigating."

"Prince, why are you following Miss Xi?" Shui Xian couldn't help but ask about the doubts in her heart. Although her master liked Xi Jiu Er, it was insignificant when compared to the major affairs of the country;

"You mind your own business." Mu Qiu Shui rubbed his nose. "What we need to do now is to follow Xi Jiu Er …"

"Yes." Shui Xian replied after pausing for a while.

The horse Shui Xian found here had the ability to travel a thousand miles in a day without blinking an eye. Not only did it have a whole new level of respect for Shui Xian, it also had a new level of respect for him. Xi Jiu Er did not want to delay the rest of the journey, so it was more important to continue!

The south bank of the Huai River would probably arrive tomorrow, so he decided to stay out for the night. Originally, they wanted to go to the town, but the previous town had been flooded and hadn't been repaired for so many years. The people in the town had either died or fled, and they never came back.

"Miss, this place is so eerie …" Liu Xiang looked at the surrounding pitch black trees. She felt that there was a shadow moving behind the tree, which scared her so much that her face turned pale white.

ex-sister-in-law comforted her, "Don't be afraid, we're all here."

Liu Shui, on the other hand, consoled himself with a single glance at Liu Xiang … As the few of them were roasting and eating rations beside the bonfire, another bonfire was bustling with noise and excitement! Shui Xian danced around the fire, and from time to time, he would even croon a few words. Her beautiful body was captivated by the light of the fire, and her smile was very beautiful … Of course, that was towards Mu Qiu Shui, and looking at Xi Jiu Er, it became an appearance of arsenic.

"How terrifying …" Liu Xiang trembled.

ex-sister-in-law was delighted, but Drain did not say anything. He took out a paper bag and scattered some of the powder from the paper bag on the horse's body and around it, then scattered some around the horse carriage.

"Liu Shui, what are you doing?" Liu Xiang asked.

"This is insect repellent powder, it can also protect you from snakes!" Liu Shui explained and asked Shui Xian: "Does Miss Shui Xian want it?"

Shui Xian's attitude towards Liu Shui was still alright, at least she was not against it. It was probably because martial artists had something in common. Shui Xian nodded and scattered the paper bag over. Liu Xiang found her unpleasing to the eye, and said: "Why don't you even thank her?"

Shui Xian could not bear to see Liu Xiang's stupid look the most, so she snorted coldly: "It's not like I'm using your stuff, who else can you say thank me for?"

"You!" Liu Xiang stared at Shui Xian and turned her head to look at the bonfire angrily. She knew that Shui Xian despised her and she did not like Shui Xian either.

"Where are you going?" Mu Qiu Shui walked over to Xi Jiu Er and asked. At such a close distance, he could see that her skin was as smooth as an infant's.

"I would actually like to ask, why are you following me?" Xi Jiu Er did not reply with a question.

"I have nothing to do, so if I meet someone I know, I'll just follow you." "Little girl, why do you have such a bad attitude? No matter what, I am your savior, and this is how you treat your savior?" Mu Qiu Shui felt very angry when she saw her attitude. Can't this damn girl talk to me properly? Does it have to be prickly? Not cute at all, not likeable.

"Humph, savior, maybe those people are here for you, I think it's because of you!" No matter who it was that was being targeted at, she did not like Mu Qiu Shui being so hypocritical.

"You, you!" Shui Xian was angered: "Why don't you know what's good for you?"

"Don't interrupt our master when he speaks." Xi Jiu Er frowned, she was a little agitated now. 'Sun Kong Ming' did not know whether he was dead or alive, but this town had already been destroyed, so wouldn't it be the same as the one on the south shore of the Huai River? She didn't want to come here for nothing.

"You!" Shui Xian was furious, without looking back, she jumped onto the carriage, lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.

"I'm tired, I'm going to rest. Prince, you should go to sleep as well!" Xi Jiu Er also stood up and greeted Mu Qiu Shui before entering the carriage. This Shui Xian pouted inside the carriage. Prince, do you see this? The woman you like has this kind of attitude towards you, if you still like her, then you must be sick.

After a while, Mu Qiu Shui also got into the carriage. There was nothing wrong with his expression, Shui Xian just thought that he would be angry at him! Shui Xian had already made the bed, and seeing that the floor was quite wide, he suggested that the two of them sleep together. Shui Xian was stumped for words, and then said uncertainly, "This, this isn't a good idea, is it …"

"What's wrong? Go to sleep. We'll probably have to hurry on our journey tomorrow. I wonder where this girl will go …" Mu Qiu Shui murmured as he fell asleep. The news of him and Xi Jiu Er still being alive was not announced to the public, so many people had already died!

Of course, this was only on the surface. First Lady was not the main culprit for this, she did not dare reveal it, since the other party had already caused the death of a prince, and now that zodiac was so angry, saying that she wanted to investigate the culprit thoroughly, she was already scared out of her mind. She wanted to think about how to resolve this matter.

Xi Wan Rong was happy that Xi Jiu Er had died, but sad that the man she liked had also died! She believed that Xi Jiu Er was dead, but she could not believe that Mu Qiu Shui was dead too!

"Dead …" "How could he have died …" Xi Wan Rong cried. Her eyes were swollen from crying, no matter how Si Ping tried to persuade her, she could not go to First Lady, it would be hard to be her servant.

How could First Lady possibly control Xi Wan Rong? She frowned and said: "If she wants to cry, then let her cry. If she cries, then she will forget about everyone else."

"Yes."

Xi Jiu Er's death didn't matter much to Xi Wan Feng. She wasn't after the Xi Family, so she naturally had her own mother and Xi Wan Rong to take care of. She was too lazy to ask either. She was just wondering who had done it. Was it done by the mother? did not have the guts to kill even the King of the imperial court.

Who could it be? Xi Wan Feng thought for a bit. She had no clue so she decided not to think about it anymore. Right now, the most important thing for her was how to enter the palace. Mubai... I have to tell mother to contact him properly! Mubai's help was indispensable.

When Third Wife heard the news that he was chatting with Yan Er, both of them were shocked. Did Ninth Miss die? Third Wife told the maidservants to leave, leaving the Mother Fang to wait upon them.

"Do you think the Ninth Miss is dead?" Xi Jiu Er had given her a lot of help. When she was at her most disappointed, when she was at her worst, she had extended a helping hand, she was grateful.

Yan Er thought for a while, before replying confidently, "My guess is that Ninth Miss is not dead yet."

"Why are you so sure?" Third Wife asked.

Yan Er shook her head. She thought for a while and said, "This is a feeling in my heart, I feel that the Ninth Miss is not a person with fate. Furthermore, she has a spring, so the miraculous spring water will probably revive her in one breath. Therefore, it might not be so easy for Ninth Miss to die. "

"What?" Jiu Er... Jiu Er and Prince Xian are dead? " Wei Guogong did not believe the news at all. Just a few days ago, Madame died? Impossible, this is impossible! Her granddaughter has a life-saving spring water … Yes, the spring for saving lives, they'll be fine, they'll be fine. After comforting herself a few times, he stopped being agitated. She went to the study room to write a few large words in praise of the Buddhist scriptures before gradually calming down.
