Chapter 195 194 I'm not his mother, why should I save him

After the firecrackers were set off, it was already late at night.

An Xin yawned and waved to everyone, "Go back to sleep."

Li Ziyu, Leng Xiangbai, Kong Xun, Zhu Shijing, Jiang Zhou, and An Rui watched An Xin and her two personal maids walk towards the backyard.

Afterwards, they returned to their respective rooms in the front yard.

As the servant with the longest tenure in An's house, Da Zhuang was assigned by his master to be the manager and guard of the outer courtyard of An's house. Even the servants of Li Ziyu and others were under his charge in An's house.

Today is New Year's Eve. Dazhuang, who looks rough on the outside but has been trained and refined by his master An Xin on the inside, only drank a few glasses of wine with the others.

At this time, he was still sober and took a few servants who were not drunk to patrol the house to see whether the front and back doors were locked before going back to rest.

After everyone had gone to bed, a tall and slender black shadow appeared in the An residence and hurried towards the back door.

When An Xin, who had just fallen asleep on the bed, was anxiously awakened by the system, she was a little grumpy and almost wanted to take Ergouzi system to reincarnate again.

[It would be better if you have a reason to wake me up, otherwise, I don’t mind being destroyed with you]

An Xin has never been a person who is willing to be controlled by others, let alone a system that binds her without her consent.

[Host, Kong Xun, who is responsible for the future of the country, is in danger now. You need to save him.]

An Xin paused, but did not move.

After the Chinese New Year today, Kong Xun is already 20 years old. In ancient times, men of this age have reached adulthood and have the ability to act independently.

She is not his mother. She is obligated to save him every time he is in danger. Does she look like she has nothing to do?

When the system saw An Xin close his eyes again, it immediately became anxious.

An Xin was able to sense the system's agitation, and after a moment of contemplation, he asked with his consciousness: [Aren't you a teaching and educating system? Why are you concerned about the fate of the Daqian Dynasty again?]

This is not a secret that cannot be told, so Ergou's system immediately replied:

[I sent you to this world to teach and educate people, and also to cultivate pillars for the Daqian Dynasty. If you hadn't come to this world,

Whether it is the six civil officials after Li Ziyu, or the four military generals represented by Yuchi Yi, they will all fall on the road to growth.

Because Daqian lost its leading civil and military officials, the original trajectory would involve several neighboring countries and plunge them into an endless war with continuous gunfire.

An Xin's heart sank.

If several countries go to war in the future, I am afraid that all living beings in this world will live in dire straits, and she herself will be no exception.

An Xin now understands why the system always asks him to save Kong Xun, the dragon egg.

The one who carries the destiny of the country must be the next monarch. If something happens to him, it will be difficult for the dynasty to remain in chaos.

An Xin, who had already decided to rescue Kong Xun, just sat up and had no intention of getting out of bed.

Being treated as free labor is not An Xin's character.

[Ten years of life value, and an overtime card that can make people's mental strength stronger and can merge into water]

Giving rewards for completing tasks is allowed by the main system. The requirements raised by An Xin were not very high. The Ergou sub-system might have agreed immediately in order to allow An Xin to rescue people earlier.

【make a deal】

An Xin also didn't want to live in a war era in the future, so as soon as Ergou's system agreed, she prepared herself as quickly as possible.

Haven’t you heard people say since ancient times: It is better to be a dog in peacetime than a man in troubled times.

This sentence still makes a lot of sense.

An Xin simply tied up her long hair and found a scarf to cover her face. This was her habit before a fight. It would always save her trouble regardless of whether she won or not.

He took a special soft sword from the wall and wrapped it around his waist, then turned and walked out of the room, flying in the direction indicated by the system.

At this time, the system sensed An Xin's speed in rescuing people, and was also very glad that it was not a stingy person and did not take back the peerless martial arts it gave her after the host finished the task last time.

Otherwise, given her host's nature, she doesn't have this ability, but she is very self-aware and may not really go to save people.

Tonight is New Year's Eve. Although there are many more patrolling guards in the capital, the curfew has been cancelled.

An Xin followed the system's instructions and flew to the outside of the city. The cold wind was blowing, and the bare trees in front of him were swaying in the cold wind. It was pitch black.

Listening carefully, I could hear faint sounds of fighting coming from the woods.

An Xin moved nimbly through the woods. Although it was dark ahead, she was able to dodge the trees and thorns that blocked her way with her extraordinary martial arts skills.

When An Xin saw the light of torches in the woods, she did not show up immediately. Instead, she jumped onto a big tree as light as a swallow.

In the light of the torch, An Xin saw the injured Kong Xun using the spear that he had given him to barely support his body and not fall down.

He was surrounded by sturdy masked men, with blood dripping from their bodies, their eyes staring fiercely at the man wearing the silver mask.

There was a familiar-looking person lying at his feet. An Xin took another closer look and recognized the man lying there, his life or death unknown.

It was the follower named Ling Yun who stayed with Kong Xun even after he was poisoned.

At this moment, An Xin understood why Kong Xun did not sleep so late at night and ran to the suburbs alone.

The follower lying on the ground meant something different to him. Someone was threatening his life, so Kong Xun would definitely come even if he knew it was a trap.

An Xin’s guess was correct.

After Kong Xun and his friends finished celebrating the New Year and setting off firecrackers and returned home, he found a letter on his bed. After opening it, he learned the following.

Someone took the life of Kong Xun, the only loyal follower of the Kong Mansion, and ordered him to come to the woods alone according to the instructions in the letter.

Kong Xun is not a heartless and cold person, so he came.

"Who are you? Why are you doing this?" Kong Xun asked, looking at the people in front of him with deep and cold eyes.

Ever since he could remember, he had been intentionally trapped in the mansion by the man he thought was his father, and the number of times he had the opportunity to go out could be counted on one hand.

Even when he went to Lin'an County to take the imperial examination, it was only after his very strong request that Master Kong reluctantly agreed.

Under such circumstances, Kong Xun racked his brains but could not figure out who he had a grudge against.

As for why he went to so much trouble to trick him out during the New Year's Day and use the life of his former follower to do so, it was as if he had a grudge against him for killing his father or stealing his wife, and he stabbed him left and right.

At this time, the tall and thin man wearing a silver mask finally moved. He saw a slight confusion in Kong Xun's eyes, and a hint of violence flashed in his gloomy eyes.
