Chapter 152,
Before she could finish her words, a black cat on the wall jumped directly onto Su Guoer and grabbed her arm hard!
Su Guoer was caught off guard in the dark and was so scared that she stepped back and fell directly to the ground, alarming the patrolling officers and soldiers.
"Are you okay?"
But why is it Lu Ping'an's voice?
With this fall, the palace lanterns in her and Lian'er's hands were all extinguished. It was not until the other party held up the palace lantern and shone it in front of them that she saw clearly that the person opposite was indeed Lu Ping'an.
"Why are you here?"
And he's the only one?
Lu Pingan calmly took out a palace gate token from his pocket and said, "I'm here to deliver something to my master."
I guess everything has been checked before, and he must have been authorized to come in. I don’t know why I’m so nervous?
Su Guoer breathed a sigh of relief. She always felt that she was a little too nervous. Moreover... Lu Ping'an appeared too frequently and was promoted all the way from a small yamen runner to this position. This was really jaw-dropping.
He is really capable. He has been appreciated by Lord Liao of the Dali Temple and he will probably be promoted soon.
Su Guoer: "Oh, so that's the case. Well, I won't disturb you while you're working." She took a step back and turned to leave.
Lu Ping'an: "I haven't asked the girl yet, why are you here?"
Su Guoer: "I just came out of the Imperial Kitchen. I was originally assigned by the Imperial Concubine to cook. I will be serving the dishes at this banquet."
When he said this, Lu Ping'an frowned, but he held the palace lantern at his waist, so Su Guoer couldn't see his face clearly, and naturally didn't notice anything wrong.
"Is there anything else? I'm leaving," Su Guoer said, and was about to leave when she saw that he had no reaction.
but…………
As she left, her eyes moved to the lantern at his waist.
There was something shining there.
Lu Ping'an was unaware of this and only said, "It's dark now. You can't go anywhere in the palace. It's better for you to stay in your own palace and don't walk around, okay?" This seemed to be a kind reminder.
Su Guoer wanted to agree, but her throat suddenly tightened and the word was stuck in her throat.
I feel cold all over.
That token...
Condor token, golden.
She had rubbed the Divine Eagle Token in her hands countless times.
She wouldn't be wrong.
In an instant, it was like a bucket of cold water was poured over her head. She was shaking all over, but she still had to suppress her emotions and uttered a word from her throat: "...Okay." Her voice was a little trembling.
This is increasingly suspicious.
"Sister Guo'er, shall we go quickly?" The palace lanterns were already lit, and the token on Lu Ping'an's waist became even more dazzling.
Su Guoer said "yes" again and turned to leave with Lian'er. She had a premonition that this night was destined to be troubled. She was even a little afraid. The answer she had longed to know might be right in front of her, but she didn't have the courage to take a step forward.
Things were more out of control than she had imagined.
She made up her mind and walked quickly forward, thinking that if she could escape this disaster today, she would sell the restaurant and find a place where no one was around to live her own life.
She no longer wanted to know how her father died.
Besides, her father's dying wish was for her to live a good life, and she couldn't let her father's spirit down.
In panic, she walked faster and faster, but suddenly she tripped and fell to the ground again. Then she heard a whistling sound of wind beside her ears. She turned her head and saw an arrow piercing Lian'er's head. Her body went limp.
Lian'er's body fell to the ground, her eyes wide open as she died.
"What did you see?"
Lu Pingan suddenly appeared behind Su Guoer. When the voice came from behind, Su Guoer was suddenly frightened and could not say anything.
"...You? You...why?"
Lu Ping'an frowned in confusion: "Why?"
Then he picked up the token from his waist and placed it in front of Su Guoer: "Do you recognize this token?"
Seeing Su Guoer's frightened expression, he was a little confused and continued to ask: "Where did you see this token?"
Su Guoer: "Tell me first, why did you kill Lian'er? What did she do wrong?"
At this moment and here, she could only buy herself more time.
Lu Ping'an didn't buy her trick and asked her, "Why do you know this token?"
What else can I say?
Su Guoer suddenly had an idea: "...What if I also have this token?"
This is indeed……
Lu Pingan relaxed his guard and stood up. He also breathed a sigh of relief: "Where is your token?"
Seeing that he believed it, Su Guoer hurriedly took out the token she had hidden on her body and showed it to him.
After rubbing it twice, he confirmed it was real. Su Guoer: "I'm just wondering why you carry this token with you? Are you going to do something?"
Lu Ping'an didn't answer, but only said: "This token was given to you by the imperial concubine, right?"
"We have different missions, so I can't tell you. Of course, I won't ask you what you were doing just now."
"We've only just met once, but I still want to remind you that it's best to find a remote yard and stay there. Once tomorrow morning comes, things should be over."
These words made Su Guoer's heart sink.
It looks like something big is going to happen tonight.
"Here, this is the token for you. If you don't want to die, it's better to carry it with you. People who recognize this token won't make things difficult for you."
Su Guoer took it, said, "Okay," and then turned and left without any hesitation.
The figure was staggering, which was suspicious to Lu Ping'an, but... out of trust in Su Guo'er, he decided not to pursue the matter. The person who could obtain this token couldn't be an ordinary person. She was probably new to the imperial concubine and still a little unskilled. He took the key and walked towards the second palace gate. He wanted to open all the palace gates to allow the man's troops to march in.
Su Guoer escaped by luck.
He ignored Lian'er's body and staggered along the way. However, he couldn't find the way back and ran straight to Qingniang's yard.
She was probably asleep, so there was no sound in the yard.
Su Guoer woke up under the influence of the medicinal fragrance in the yard. She didn't know where she was at the moment.
Pang Ya was still waiting in the yard. Su Guoer turned around and was about to walk towards her own yard. She decided to seal all the doors and windows and try to survive the night.
A voice came from behind: "How did you get that token?" The voice was a little cold.
