Hearing Zhu Xie's heartfelt voice, Zu An was startled, and even Yun Jianyue's face changed.
In her current state, she would definitely die if she faced Zhu Xie.
How did the other party find her? Did Zu An secretly notify the other party? There might be some means of private communication between them.
However, this idea was quickly rejected by her. The other party really wanted to harm her and he just didn't stop when he had just absorbed her cultivation. Why bother?
Zu An also had countless thoughts flashing through his mind at this time. The first was to pretend to be dead, pretend that he was not in the room, ignore the other party, and let him shout a few times outside to no avail before turning around and leaving.
But he didn't react immediately. Zhu Xie Chixin appeared at the door by chance, so he probably knew that he was in the house.
Could it be that he witnessed himself bringing Yun Jianyue back?
I couldn't help but feel horrified when I thought of this.
He immediately analyzed: Probably not. He was very careful along the way and almost used all the little animals in the palace to help as spies. If all this was discovered, would Zhu Xie be a god?
He lowered his head towards his waistband and vaguely felt a warmth coming from it. Could it be that these things can sense each other?
"Eleven?" Zhu Xie's tone was impatient.
Zu An immediately responded: "Coming, coming."
Then he sent a message to Yun Jian Yue Yuan Qi: "Be careful, I'll go out and deal with it."
Yun Jianyue nodded without even making a sound.
Zu An hurriedly ran out the door and saw Zhu Xie Chixin standing outside across the yard.
Well, there are no other guards around, so they probably aren't here to arrest me.
"I've met the Commander-in-Chief." Zu An opened the courtyard door and saluted.
"Why did it take so long to open the door?" Zhu Xie Chixin frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure on his pale face.
Sure enough, you know I'm in there?
Zu An felt a thump in his heart and said hurriedly: "Today I was frightened after a series of battles today, and I was quite tired, so I just fell on the bed and took a nap, and fell asleep unknowingly. I thought it was the commander's voice when I heard it.
I’m dreaming.”
Zhu Xie said angrily: "I'm afraid you are the only one who can sleep in the palace now."
"Thank you for your hard work, Commander-in-Chief," Zu An smiled apologetically, and after a while asked tentatively, "I wonder what's the point of looking for a humble position?"
"It's okay. I just sensed you when I was patrolling nearby, so I wanted to talk to you." Zhu Xie pointed to his waistband with all his heart. His waistband was different from other embroidered messengers. It was neither gold nor silver.
, but made of jade, "This thing can sense other embroidered messengers within a certain range. This is also so that everyone can help each other in time when they go on a mission."
Zu Anxin thought it was indeed a waist card, but he immediately realized what kind of person Zhu Xie Chixin was.
Why did you suddenly come over and want to talk to him?
Zhu Xie Chixin then continued: "I have been busy tonight and haven't even had a sip of water. Do you mind if you go in and finish your tea?"
Zu An heard that the souls of the dead were rising. If Zhu Xie went in with all his heart and discovered Yun Jianyue, he would be dead.
But when your boss passes by your house and asks for a drink of water, how can you refuse?
"Well, it's really hard for the Commander-in-Chief..." His mind was racing, and when he was about to find an excuse to refuse, he saw that Zhu Xie had already walked straight in.
Zu An: "..."
His heart almost jumped into his throat, and he even had the idea of whether he could defeat him if he teamed up with Yun Jianyue later.
However, he immediately rejected this idea, not to mention that Yun Jianyue was now seriously injured and unable to do anything. Even if she still had a certain fighting ability, it would be difficult for the two of them to defeat a half-step grandmaster together.
Moreover, Zhu Xie Chixin could summon reinforcements from the palace at any time, so it was really a bad idea to fight him.
Seeing that he couldn't stop him, he had no choice but to say loudly: "The Commander-in-Chief wants to come to my humble abode. Of course I welcome him. But I just moved in and many places have not been cleaned. I am afraid that I may neglect the Commander-in-Chief."
He deliberately raised his voice to remind Yun Jianyue inside that she could become a grand master and she must not be a fool.
"Don't be so polite. From now on, we are all colleagues and our own people." Zhu Xie turned back to look at him curiously, "Hey, why are you sweating profusely?"
Zu An had just taken off the mask and had not had time to put it back on. Anyway, Zhu Xie knew his true identity sincerely, so there was no need to hide it.
Zu An hurriedly said: "Maybe I'm a little worried. There are so many assassins in the forbidden area of the palace. It always feels a little creepy."
"What happened today is indeed outrageous," Zhu Xiechi felt the same and reminded him at the same time, "By the way, remember to wear a mask when you wear these clothes in the future. Your true identity cannot be exposed."
Zu An cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for reminding me."
This guy still cares about me, well, I'd better not take action against him if I can.
He entered the room first, and as expected he did not see Yun Jianyue's figure. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The other party had the "Mingjing Feitai" technique to hide his aura. As long as Zhu Xie didn't see it with his own eyes, he should be able to hide his aura.
Can muddle through.
He quickly scanned the entire room, and finally his eyes fell on the bed, where the curtains were lowered and the quilts were spread out, as if someone had just gotten up from inside.
He secretly praised Yun Jianyue's carefulness. He had just told Zhu Xie Chixin to sleep on the bed for a while outside, and she had actually arranged the venue.
In addition, she deliberately lowered only half of the curtain. If it were fully lowered, people would suspect that someone was hiding inside at first glance. But now that it is half open and half closed, it looks natural.
Zu An had already guessed that Yun Jian Yue was probably hidden in this half of the sky where it fell.
Behind the curtain, I guess I also like a guy who takes risks in military affairs.
He hurriedly poured a bowl of tea for Zhu Xie Chixin: "Please use it, Commander-in-Chief."
As she spoke, she naturally stood between him and the bed, blocking his view.
"You sit down too, you don't have to be so polite." Zhu Xie picked up the teacup and took a casual sip before putting it down.
Zu An's head twitched. He obviously didn't come here to drink water, so what was his purpose?
Zhu Xie Chixin was hesitant to speak. He was obviously thinking about how to organize his words. Suddenly he sniffed: "Hey, why is there a woman's scent?"
Hearing what he said, Zu An's scalp almost exploded. When he saw the other party standing up and looking around, he didn't know where his reaction speed came from. He hurriedly said: "Maybe it was because I hugged the princess for a while when I saved her in the East Palace.
, tainted with some of her fragrance."
Zhu Xie frowned: "But this doesn't look like the fragrance of the princess."
Zu An cursed secretly. It is said that women are most sensitive to the scent of other women. Does this matter to you, a grown man?
He hurriedly made amends: "I stayed in Kunning Palace before and saved the queen from this moment. Maybe it's because of the mixture of several flavors."
Zhu Xie nodded heartily and accepted this explanation. He also knew that the Queen liked to burn various precious sandalwoods, and it was really hard to tell the difference after mixing them.
Zu An was worried that he would continue to ask questions, so he hurriedly took the initiative: "The Commander-in-Chief is very familiar with the fragrance of the Crown Princess."
"We in this industry are naturally more sensitive to smells," Zhu Xie Chixin's face froze and he shouted in a low voice, "Don't say such nonsense, aren't you going to kill me?"
Zu An smiled sarcastically and said, "Commander, I have absolutely no intention of doing this."
Seeing that he was so frightened, I couldn't help but feel comfortable in my heart. You were the one who scared me from the beginning, so it's my turn to scare you.
Zhu Xie snorted with all his heart: "Speaking of which, you have a lot of blessings. You actually saved the queen, the prince and the princess at the same time today. Your future prospects are limitless."
Zu An smiled bitterly and said: "Don't mention it, I almost lost my head because of this."
Zhu Xie was startled: "What do you mean?"
Zu An said directly: "I was just detained by the emperor. When he found out that I hugged the princess, he wanted to cut off my hand..."
Zhu Xie had a strange look on his face: "Just be content. You can still be alive and kicking after holding the Crown Princess. This is considered a favor from the Emperor."
"It can't be that easy. Your Majesty asked me to perform meritorious deeds. If nothing is found, I will still die." Zu An deliberately brought the topic to this point.
"Oh? Do you deserve merit for your crime?" Zhu Xie's expression changed slightly.
