Chapter 162 Looking for Trouble



Zhao Qifeng obviously did not expect Su Jinyue to be so firm and uncompromising. His face became increasingly gloomy. The people around him gradually quieted down and the atmosphere became solemn for a moment.

Finally, Zhao Qifeng narrowed his eyes and looked Su Jinyue up and down, "Good, what a good daughter of the Su family, interesting!"

He turned around and prepared to leave, leaving behind a meaningful sentence: "Since Miss Su is so determined, I will not entangle her any further. In a few days, the whole palace will celebrate, and Miss Su will also enter the palace."

"Don't blame me, Zhao, for not giving Miss Su face when the time comes!"

After Zhao Qifeng and his men left, Su Jinyue calmed down and returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

After returning to his own courtyard and dealing with Zhao Qifeng, Su Jingnian was watched by everyone in the Marquis' Mansion and did not cause any more trouble.

Xiao Tao quietly handed Su Jinyue a letter and said, "Miss, before you came back, there was a noise at the window. I went to check and saw this letter."

Su Jinyue's heart moved and she took the letter.

She tore open the envelope. The content on the letter was very short. It said, "Meet in the bamboo forest outside the city at three o'clock tonight. I have something important to discuss." The signature was Mu Ze.

The uneasiness that came over her again made her frown slightly.

Xiao Tao observed her expression and asked in a low voice: "Miss, do you need me to go with you?"

Su Jinyue smiled and said softly, "Don't worry, I'll go by myself tonight. Your injury hasn't healed yet, so you don't have to follow me."

"But Miss, I am really worried about you going out alone."

Su Jinyue rubbed Xiaotao's head and said, "This is not the first time I've gone out like this. If you go with me, I'll be even more worried about you."

"Yes, then Miss must be careful."

"Um."

Night fell again, and Su Jinyue went to the bamboo forest alone.

Not long after, she saw Mu Ze standing there, his figure as straight as a bamboo, and the surrounding night scene seemed to be attracted by him.

"Poster." Su Jinyue took the initiative to speak.

Mu Ze turned around and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Ms. Su, you have been involved in this matter. I think you should have known that there is no turning back, right?"

Su Jinyue nodded, "Yes, I know."

Mu Ze smiled slightly, "I have another piece of news, I believe you will be interested."

Su Jinyue motioned for him to continue, "Just tell me what you want to say. There's no need for us to beat around the bush."

"The princess from Western Xinjiang's marriage is not a simple one. There is a hidden force behind her that is trying to overthrow the crown prince's position."

"So, what you mean is that this marriage is just a conspiracy?" Su Jinyue reacted sharply.

Mu Ze nodded, "Yes, they plan to use the opportunity of the princess' marriage to set a trap in the capital."

Su Jinyue pondered for a while, then slowly said, "It seems that this palace banquet is surrounded by various forces. If we are not careful, we may be crushed to pieces."

"I will explain this matter clearly to Xiao Duo and the others. They are actually taking precautions in secret."

"You have enough wisdom and courage, which is what I value." Mu Ze praised Su Jinyue generously, "It's just that sometimes you are too smart and unpopular."

Suddenly, there was a slight noise outside the bamboo forest!

There seemed to be several figures vaguely visible, and the two looked at each other and understood.

Su Jinyue smiled slightly and deliberately raised her voice so that those people could hear: "What does the host want to do now?"

Mu Ze said: "Miss Su is now a princess, and has a close relationship with the prince. Maybe Miss Su can go to the palace to give him a warning."

"I see."

Mu Ze said: "I have told Miss Su everything I wanted to say, so I won't stay any longer."

After he said that, he jumped and disappeared into the bamboo forest!

Su Jinyue was holding a lantern in her hand and was about to leave the bamboo forest when she was surrounded by five men in black who appeared from all directions.

Seeing this, Su Jinyue was not panicked at all. She just looked at them and asked, "Who are you?"

"You don't need to know who it is, just come with us!"

Su Jinyue stopped where she was, "What if I don't go with you?"

The leading black-clad man sneered and waved his hand, signaling the others to come closer. "Miss Su, please don't overestimate your abilities. We are following orders and don't want to use force on you."

Before he finished speaking, the other men in black had already dispersed and surrounded Su Jinyue!

The breeze blowing through the bamboo forest seems to suggest that a storm is coming!

"Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?" Su Jinyue said lightly.

"Tsk tsk, we're not here to listen to the young lady's rhetoric."

The leading black-clad man spoke with disdain, and he obviously didn't care about Su Jinyue's threats. He continued, "If you know what's good for you, follow us, or you'll suffer."

"What if I tell you that I have a way to make you return empty-handed?" A hint of cunning flashed in Su Jinyue's eyes.

The man in black obviously didn't expect her to be so calm and composed. He was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. "Haha, Miss Su is really good at joking. Even at this point, you still dare to play tricks?"

Just when the man in black was about to take action, his raised hand dropped down!

When I came to my senses, I saw a silver needle stuck on the back of the black-clothed man's hand!

The black man covered his hand and gritted his teeth, "Catch her for me!"

But before they could make a move, those who were about to approach Su Jinyue had their throats cut and fell to the ground!

Except for the leader in black who was still standing, the others had died silently.

The leading man in black covered his hands and looked at the fallen people in disbelief. He turned around and was about to run, but a sharp sword was placed in front of him!

Mu Ze appeared like a ghost, with a long sword against his neck, "You made such a big noise, it's hard for us to pretend to be blind."

Su Jinyue walked over, looked at the man in black and asked, "Who are you?"

The man in black released his hand that was covering his palm and laughed a few times, "You'll never know!"

After he finished speaking, blood came out from the corner of his mouth and he fell to the ground with a thud, dead.

Su Jinyue immediately squatted down, looked at his neck and pulse, stood up and shook her head, "He's dead. This man is useless."

Mu Ze frowned and said calmly: "It seems that the other party has been prepared for a long time, and their target is you."

Su Jinyue nodded, "These should still be the people from Western Xinjiang. They have been targeting me for a long time."

"I escaped last time, but it seems they still won't give up."

Mu Ze snorted, "Given your identity, how could they let you go so easily?"

Su Jinyue looked at the men in black lying on the ground and sighed, "It seems that people should not be too capable, otherwise they may be targeted by troublemakers."
