Chapter 166 Inventory of the Warehouse and Engagement
The War King narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes, which were originally warm when he looked at Su Jixue, revealed a sense of danger when he narrowed his eyes.
"Of course, this king is reluctant to do so."
His magnetic and low voice revealed a hint of gnashing teeth.
As the War King spoke, he took Su Jixue into his arms and whispered in her ear, "Don't play with fire."
Su Jixue's ears turned red, but she felt a chill behind them. She instinctively smiled and hugged Zhan Wang with her backhand, looking up at him with an innocent look: "Since you can't bear to let go..."
Su Jixue stood on tiptoe and whispered in the Zhan Wang's ear, "How about I go to the Su family during the day and return to the Zhan Wang Mansion at night?"
Not only would he whisper in her ear, she would too.
The War King glanced at Twelve, who was watching the whole thing from the side. He originally wanted to punish Su Jixue but temporarily stopped and whispered viciously into Su Jixue's ear, "You asked for this."
Su Jixue's smile froze.
What do you mean?
Did he think what she said was true?!
"Prince, do you really need me to go back to the Zhan Palace at night?" Su Jixue kept the smile on her face and asked softly with a forced smile.
Twelve touched his arm and felt goosebumps all over his body.
"Of course I need it." The corners of the War King's lips curled up into a cold smile that made Su Jixue's scalp tingle: "But not now."
The War King leaned over and whispered in Su Jixue's ear.
She's waiting!
"Then I will take people to capture the Gui family first, otherwise it will be too late to go to the Su family." Su Jixue instinctively broke free from Zhan Wang's arms and moved towards the door calmly.
But before she could take a few steps out, the War King pulled her back and asked, "Can you get out of the city?"
Su Jixue then remembered that the capital of Dongchu had been sealed off. She was about to beg the War King for mercy when the War King's order was handed to her: "Keep it!"
The heavy War King Order returned to Su Jixue's hands again. This time, she didn't feel it was hot at all.
"Since you gave it to me, it's mine!" Su Jixue weighed it in her hand, knowing that she should be able to leave the city with it.
Since this is so useful, and will definitely become more useful as the War King's power increases, Su Jixue is not going to return it.
The corners of the War King's lips curled slightly: "Put it away!"
Su Jixue raised the War King's Order in her hand and smiled at the War King: "Don't worry, this is our token!"
The eyes of the two people seemed to be glued together, and Twelve, who was ignored, couldn't help but cough twice.
The War King glanced at Twelve coldly, then touched Su Jixue's head lovingly: "When you've had enough fun, I'll pick you up."
The word he used was come back.
Su Jixue nodded heavily and called Twelve to leave together.
Twelve looked back at the War King defiantly, then followed him.
Zhan Wang looked at Su Jixue's back, with a smile on his lips that he didn't even notice. After they left, he walked out.
Outside the bedroom, the guard who was originally guarding the door had been replaced by Bai Shiwu, who had rushed back at lightning speed. After receiving the news that Zong Kui was in the capital, Bai Shiwu rushed back directly.
Now he has returned to Prince Zhan's Mansion.
His mission was to ambush and kill Zongkui. Now that Zongkui was in Beijing, he would naturally turn back.
The first time the War King saw Bai Shiwu, he said calmly, "You've returned just in time. Now go and take inventory of my warehouse and go to the Su family to propose marriage."
Bai Shiwu traveled all the way exhausted, and even collected information about Zong Kui along the way. He also cleared out some secret agents of Nanqing outside the capital before returning.
Originally, he had discovered traces of the four Dharma protectors around Zong Kui, but they were difficult to capture, so he was preparing to come back and discuss with the King of War.
Moreover, there will be a grand court meeting tomorrow, and Bai Shiwu thought that King Zhan would discuss these things with him first when they met.
But what did the War King say?!
Inventory the warehouse?
Offer a marriage proposal?
Bai Shiwu's forehead was full of question marks. The instructions given by the War King when he arranged for them to go to Nanqing made him feel heavy-hearted.
Why are you already asking for a marriage proposal as soon as you come back?!
"Don't understand?" The War King raised his eyelids slightly and asked coldly at Bai Shiwu's somewhat stunned expression.
"I understand, but does the master really want to marry Su Jixue?" Bai Shiwu didn't know what he had missed these days.
How come the relationship between the master and Miss Su progressed so rapidly in the blink of an eye?
"The imperial decree has been issued." King Zhan glanced at Bai Shiwu indifferently and responded coldly.
Bai Shiwu took a deep breath.
It's not an imperial decree, but an imperial decree?!
He knew the rift between Prince Zhan and Empress Dowager Xie, and he also understood that if Prince Zhan didn't want it to happen, the imperial decree wouldn't reach Prince Zhan's residence.
"I understand. When do you want to propose?" Bai Shiwu suppressed his thoughts and asked.
"Today, the sooner the better." The War King's order was still concise and clear.
Bai Shiwu looked at the War King, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "Master, there are traces of Zongkui's four guardians outside the city, but they are too secretive and we haven't been able to catch them."
"Let Xiaoying go, and you do what you should do." The War King said lightly after hearing the voice, as if everything was under control.
Bai Shiwu blinked again and again to make sure that he had not seen or heard wrong, then nodded in agreement.
"Su Jixue is so powerful?!"
Before Bai Shiwu could figure out the situation, he was given clear instructions and sent to the warehouse to count the gifts suitable for betrothal.
The master's attention finally shifted to Ji Xue, which is a good thing.
Bai Shiwu was picking and choosing in the warehouse with sharp eyes. This was the gift list for King Zhan's wedding, and it had to be arranged beautifully and clearly.
Bai Shiwu looked relieved.
A-choo.
Su Jixue, who had just entered Yaoguang Courtyard with Twelve, couldn't help but sneeze, feeling that someone was talking about her behind her back again.
Yaoguang was still in a coma. Su Jixue looked at Yaoguang's miserable face, and his eyes changed.
She knew how painful it was to forge bones.
And Yaoguang could actually bear all this. Su Jixue tucked the corners of the quilt for Yaoguang, and her eyes softened.
In Nanqing, whether it was the Six Paths Pavilion or elsewhere, loyalty was essentially maintained through poison. Even so, traitors were inevitable.
But now, without the threat of poison, someone did something more painful than death for her.
"She was moved so easily? No wonder she was killed. I don't believe Jun Wuzui didn't threaten her." Twelve poured cold water on him.
Su Jixue gave Twelve an unpleasant look. He was a good person, but he had a big mouth.
She simply slashed her fingertips with the dagger, dripping a few drops of blood into Yaoguang's medicine bowl before leaving. Now, Su Jixue's blood has some of the spiritual power, although it is not as powerful as before, but it should be able to help Yaoguang overcome the difficulties.
Under the attention of everyone in the capital, Su Jixue and his group became the first group of people to leave the capital.
She left the capital with the Xiaoying Camp. Half of the people in the Xiaoying Camp were responsible for carrying out the mission, and the other half were responsible for protecting her.
When she returned to Guijia Village, Gui Mingzhu was still a little nervous, but she knocked on the door of the Gui family without hesitation.
This time, it’s different from before.
