Chapter 373 Nalan Mingyue's Showdown



"Do you know him?"

The innkeeper looked at the people from Yu Dao Men with trepidation and was still a little scared.

"It's an old man. He came here with a nun who was practicing with her hair untied."

"Then the old man went out for a while and just came back yesterday. As a result, he killed someone today."

An old man? A nun with untied hair? Suddenly, a guess came to the mind of the sword guard.

Could this old man be Ning Daoqi?

"Did he say anything?"

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "I saw him looking for a nun, so I asked him to go to the Buddhist temple to look for one."

“I don’t know whether he will go or not.”

Suddenly, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up and he quickly said, "Maybe the waiter knows who they are. He was the one who took orders and delivered water before."

The Imperial Sword Guard nodded upon hearing this and quickly glanced at the people being questioned, including the waiter.

He walked over and asked directly, "Were you responsible for taking orders and delivering water to that old man before? Did you hear any useful information?"

The waiter paused when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he said, "They are just chatting."

"By the way, the old Taoist priest called the nun Xiuxin."

"The nun calls old Master Daoning."

"I don't know anything else."

The Imperial Sword Guard let out a long sigh and confirmed that it was that old bastard Ning Daoqi.

Of course, he only dared to think about these abusive words in his mind, because words can cause trouble.

The person who died was because he had previously fantasized about Ning Daoqi with someone else.

It's common to brag, but if you die from bragging...you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.

He quickly returned to the Yudao Gate. At this time, the Golden Sword Divine Detective and the four Silver Sword Divine Detectives were thinking about how to fight the report.

Suddenly, the Imperial Sword Guard rushed in, and the detective's expression changed slightly, and his brows furrowed slightly.

What's going on? Are there no rules at all? But before he could say anything, the Royal Sword Guard immediately knelt on one knee and shouted, "Sir, Ning Daoqi has committed a crime again."

Huh? After hearing this, the Golden Blade Detective felt his scalp go numb and his temples throbbed.

Old bitch, you're addicted, right?

"Where was it slaughtered this time?"

"Ah?" The Imperial Sword Guards were stunned. Why were they slaughtered?

"What? I'm asking you a question."

"Well, sir, no one was massacred. It was Ning Daoqi who killed someone at the North-South Inn."

The detective was startled.

"Alone? In an inn?"

"Yes, sir, this is what happened..."

After listening to the report from the Imperial Sword Guard, the detective said, "You lead people to patrol the city, just for show. Remember not to really arrest anyone. Even if you see someone, you must pretend that you didn't see anything. Do you understand?"

The Imperial Sword Guards suddenly felt warm in their hearts, thinking that the Lord still cared about the lives of their subordinates.

"Don't worry, sir. I know what to do."

After the Imperial Sword Guards left, the Divine Constable spoke up, "How do I report this? What do you think?"

"Xiangguo Temple is a national temple, and a hundred people died there. We have to give an explanation, otherwise we will not be able to go through with this court."

Wuqing heard this, thought for a moment and said, "At least we should arrest him in a high-profile manner."

Tie Shou thought for a moment and said, "I think it is better to report the truth to His Majesty. This is beyond our ability to handle."

"In this way, we don't have to face the pressure from the ministers."

The detective nodded, confirming Tie Shou's statement.

"Indeed, otherwise if those ministers keep urging us, the pressure will be on us, the Yudao Sect."

Leng Xue didn't say anything. He didn't like to talk, and he especially didn't like to talk nonsense.

Zhui Ming said with a smile: "Why don't we do it together, while making a big fanfare and carefully enforcing martial law, and at the same time report to His Majesty."

"If the higher-ups send a top expert to assist us, we may not be able to catch him."

Upon hearing this, the detective nodded again.

"Yes, sir!"

Upon hearing this, Tieshou pushed Wuqing to make arrangements.

At this time, Li Xiuzhu came to the courtyard on Zhuque Street.

Seeing Li Xiuzhu coming, Nalan Mingyue was stunned for a moment. A smile appeared on her face unconsciously. Then, as if she realized her own smile, the smile on her face quickly disappeared again.

“Here I come.”

"Well, let's go inside and talk."

Nalan Mingyue thought that Li Xiuzhu wanted to do that, and her face suddenly turned red.

It’s no wonder she thinks so. Every time Li Xiuzhu comes, he leaves after doing the job, and he leaves when she is unconscious.

This made her suspect that Li Xiuzhu knew her identity, or even her identity as a killer.

"Can you talk to me again today?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Hmm? Is this the beginning of your heartfelt feelings?

"Okay, can we talk while we eat?"

"good!"

After the food was served, Li Xiuzhu didn't expect the other party to reveal his true colors directly.

"My name is Nalan Mingyue."

Hmm? Didn't I say this before? Why are you saying it again? Nalan Mingyue continued, "I am the daughter of Nalan Xian, the left priest of Silla, and the woman of Zheluo, the eldest prince of Silla."

Li Xiuzhu didn't expect Nalan Mingyue to reveal her true colors at this time, so he put down his chopsticks and looked at her seriously.

Nalan Mingyue looked at Li Xiuzhu and continued, "I came here to kill you. Not only did you kill Zhe Luo, you also killed my father and brother."

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu looked at Nalan Mingyue, who had completely revealed her true colors, and asked, "So what do you want to tell me this for???"

Nalan Mingyue forced a smile, but it was so bitter.

"I'm here to kill you!"

That's it? "So you're telling me this so I can kill you?"

Nalan Mingyue nodded and said nothing, but his expression was serious.

Li Xiuzhu blinked.

"So you won't kill me?"

"Well, I won't kill you. I can't kill you." Nalan Mingyue continued, "From your expression just now, you didn't seem surprised at all. I know you already knew I wanted to kill you."

"So every time you make me almost unconscious, then take the opportunity to leave, and never stay here overnight, right?"

"Haha, I never thought that I, Nalan Mingyue, who prides myself on being smart, would be played around by you."

"But it doesn't matter, just kill me."

Li Xiuzhu smiled playfully when he heard this.

"So why should I kill you? You can't kill me anyway."

"you……"

Nalan Mingyue was furious. She just wanted to find peace of mind...

But Li Xiuzhu has been playing with her for so long in vain, and it is obvious that he wants to play with her for free again in the future.

But what could she do? Commit suicide? She was afraid of the pain.

She would never say that she couldn't bear to part with someone.

Nalan Mingyue was silent for a moment, then said, "Can you bring my mother here? She is my only relative."

"Besides, if my mother stays alone in Silla, she will definitely be taken over by someone else."

Li Xiuzhu: …

You mean me? But Li Xiuzhu still nodded and agreed, and said, "You don't have to think that I killed your husband, father, and brother."

"First of all, it was not my own doing. Their deaths were caused by the expeditionary force."

"If you want to say that it was me who ordered the expedition, then you should seek revenge from His Majesty the Emperor. After all, it was he who ordered me to go."

"I'm always in the middle, I can't reach the front or back, right?"
