Si Jinxing looked at the man and asked in a cold voice:
"Tell me, who sent you here?"
The man in black who was kneeling on the ground was about to speak, but suddenly his eyes widened!
A sharp arrow suddenly pierced the flesh on his chest, and with a "swish", blood gushed out!
At the same time, his companions behind him were all hit by arrows and fell to the ground without exception!
When Mo Qiu and others heard the unusual movement outside the yard, they rushed towards the person who shot the arrow, but it was too late!
The archer did not want to fight. After he shot a few arrows and killed the men in black, he immediately used his lightness skills and hid into the night!
Si Jinxing was shocked when he saw this. Although the man used a bow and arrow, his speed was extremely fast!
She quickly walked down the stairs, wanting to check on the injuries of those people, but Qianchen stopped her:
"My Lady, be careful. I think that man's arrow is poisoned."
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing did not refute, but asked Qingchan to move the torch closer to the man.
She put on a mask and gloves and examined carefully by the light of the fire.
Sure enough, the wounds on those people were not close to their internal organs, but they had already died.
The blood flowing from their wounds had now turned black and red!
She couldn't help but glance at Qianchen and asked, "Why did you conclude so early that the arrow was poisoned?"
She originally thought that Qianchen would not answer, after all, it was still unknown whether this person was an enemy or a friend.
He approached several times, and what was his purpose?
Unexpectedly, the man said casually:
"Just now I saw the figure of that person, he seemed to be an old friend I know. Speaking of which, the county lady also recognized him."
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing frowned slightly and glanced at the night sky where the archer had just left.
For some reason, a figure suddenly appeared in her mind, and she blurted out, asking:
"Master Huang?"
Qianchen curled his lips and smiled, praisingly:
"The county lady is truly clever!
On the surface, that man was Jia Wensheng's lackey, but unexpectedly, he was actually a secret agent hiding his identity!"
When Si Jinxing heard this, she was looking at the man in front of her. She saw that he spoke in a relaxed tone and had a calm expression.
But his deep eyes were filled with deep hatred!
Did he hate Jia Wensheng? Did he also hate Mr. Huang?
She couldn't help but ask:
"Who are you?"
When Si Jinxing said this, Qing Chan had already grasped the hilt of the sword, waiting for the opportunity to strike!
Seeing this, Bai Xi shook his head slightly and said sarcastically:
"Sister Chan, I told you that you should go back and study hard for a few days. You didn't even recognize the leader of the Red Gang standing right in front of you!"
Upon hearing this, Qing Chan rolled his eyes at Bai Xi!
This guy can't spit out ivory, who is your sister!
She hurriedly looked at Mo Qiu beside her and saw that he nodded slightly. Only then did she become convinced that what Bai Xi said was true.
Si Jinxing was also shocked.
If this person is the leader of the Red Gang, then at least he is not an enemy at this time.
After all, Mo Qiu had saved his subordinate Cang He!
Cang He is the head of the Red Gang's base in Xuzhou Prefecture, and he must be Qian Chen's right-hand man!
Just based on this little bit of favor, we are not enemies!
She looked at the handsome man in front of her with a rosy face and said with a smile:
"Your Excellency seems to have chosen the name quite casually! I just don't know why you are here tonight."
How could Qianchen, who was standing next to her, not understand the meaning of what the woman said?
He folded his arms across his chest, leaned lazily against the wall, and said:
"It's just a name. I happened to like red clothes, so the Red Clothes Gang came into being.
As for tonight, if I say it was a coincidence that I heard that Master Huang was planning to assassinate the county lady, so I rushed here to help, would you believe me?"
Si Jinxing didn't believe it and said:
"You want to kill Master Huang with your own hands!"
After hearing this, Qianchen was too lazy to argue with the woman and just asked:
"Just now I saw the county lady taking some poisonous blood from these people. Is she going to check what kind of poison is in it?"
Si Jinxing nodded and said:
"Master Huang is quite skilled, and he has such a potent poison on him. I'm going to run some tests to see if there's an antidote."
Qianchen said:
"This poison is called Huaduancao, a poisonous herb unique to southern Xinjiang. Even the slightest contact with it can suffocate a person to death."
Flowers cut off grass?
Si Jinxing frowned slightly. She had never heard of a herb with this name. She thought that maybe the name was changed in later generations. She had to check to find out what it was!
She was about to ask where else she could find this poisonous weed besides southern Xinjiang, but she suddenly saw Bai Xi and Mo Qiu sitting opposite her with serious expressions.
She couldn't help but ask, "So, this poison really has no antidote?"
Qingchan whispered beside him:
"Southern Xinjiang is where Prince Rui's maternal family guards the area."
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing looked into Qingchan's eyes and immediately understood.
I dare say...
This Jia Wensheng prides himself on his intelligence and has been scheming all his life!
But he never expected that his loyal master had left him a backup plan!
Si Jinxing couldn't help but admire him, what a good move!
She looked at Qianchen and asked, "So, you knew who wanted to kill me from the beginning?"
Qianchen leaned against the wall, feeling a little tired, so he moved to sit on a chair under the eaves.
He leaned lazily against the beauty's backrest and said:
"I don't know. I just wanted to take advantage of that Master Huang coming to kill you so I could capture him alive and avenge my twenty-eight brothers!
Who would have thought that you would be so ferocious and not give Master Huang any chance at all!
