Soon, the sound of Shen Ningning's secret guard knocking on the door came from outside.

"Your Highness, everyone has been dealt with, leaving only two people alive."

Shen Ningning immediately opened the door and gave a serious order: "Send it to Dali Temple and let my second brother interrogate him."

Then, the girl looked back: "I'll take you back to Mr. Hideki first."

Tuoye recovered from his huge doubts: "No! I can't go back."

Shen Ningning was stunned: "What do you mean? Could it be that the person who sent these assassins to kill you is Mr. Hideki?"

Tuoye pursed his pale lips, blood flowed suddenly from the wound, and there was already a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

He had completely believed that Hideki wanted to take advantage of the chaos to take his life.

However, Takuno didn't expect, what was Hideki's reason for doing this?

Before coming out of Changliu Kingdom, King Dairi called Hideki over and told him to take good care of himself.

Tuoye felt that the poison was taking effect, and his vision went dark.

Before falling unconscious, he grabbed Shen Ningning's skirt: "Please...save me..."

I do not know how long it has been.

When Tuoye woke up again, the moonlight was already blue outside the window.

He looked around the house, which was neatly furnished and well-equipped with a bright soybean oil lamp.

With a "squeak" sound, someone pushed the door open and came in.

He immediately looked over with caution.

Tuoye relaxed when he saw Shen Ningning coming in with a bowl of medicine.

"Where is this?"

"My home." Shen Ningning said in a clear voice, "My home in Langshan is very safe. The assassins don't dare to come here, so you can rest assured and recover."

She handed over the medicine bowl, and when Tuoye reached out to take it, he felt a tearing pain.

But in front of Shen Ningning, he didn't want to appear too weak.

So he pretended not to change his expression, took the medicine and drank it in one gulp.

Shen Ningning dragged a stool and sat beside the bed: "Can you tell me now? You are Xiumu's bodyguard. Why did he send someone to assassinate you?"

Tuoye glanced at her with his deep tiger eyes.

A long silence filled the space between the two of them.

Shen Ningning stood up decisively and said coldly: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, I actually don't want to care about what's going on between you."

"You are his bodyguard, but he sent someone to kill you. You must have stolen some important information or made a big mistake. In this case, I can't care about your life or death. I have to send you back. Mr. Hideki."

After saying that, the girl whistled with her fingertips.

The wolves filed in from outside, biting Tuoye's clothes, and dragged him outside.

Tuoye's wound was pulled and he could no longer hide it, grinning in pain.

"Let me tell you! I didn't steal anything, and I'm not Hideki's bodyguard. I am the third prince of Changliu Kingdom, Ming Takuno!"

The surname Ming is indeed the royal surname of Changliu Kingdom.

Shen Ningning smiled after hearing this: "Liar, you are really good at making up lies. Wolf, drag him out and throw him away quickly. I don't want to get into trouble with Chang Liu Country."

Tuoye was anxious and quickly opened his clothes, revealing his white chest.

Shen Ningning screamed and immediately covered her eyes.

"How dare you act like a hooligan!"

The Black Wolf King took the lead and roared, scolding this unruly boy.

Tuoye said in a hurry: "You have clearly seen the plum mark on my heart. You should have heard the legend of Changliu Kingdom. Every prince born when he comes of age will be branded on his chest if he is recognized by his father. The plum seal indicates that he has a chance to compete for the throne."

Shen Ningning opened her slender fingers and saw the red plum scar on Tuoye's chest.

She turned her back and said, "Put your clothes on!"

Tuoye tied up his clothes with a cold face, and Shen Ningning turned around and sat down to talk to him again.

"Why did Hideki kill you? Since you are the prince, isn't he afraid of being blamed by the King of Japan when he returns?" Takuno's eyes were deep, filled with cold hatred.

"Xiu Mu must have been bribed by my elder brother."

The eldest prince had been fighting for power with him for a long time. Tuoye originally thought that his eldest brother lacked intelligence and courage, so he never took him seriously.

But he didn't expect that he would directly bribe Hideki, who was his father's confidant.

Shen Ningning thought about his words for a moment and frowned.

"So, if you died in the Cangyun Kingdom due to an assassination, wouldn't we be able to explain it clearly? If you killed him, you would have to shift the responsibility to our Cangyun Kingdom!"

The reason that Tuoye couldn't figure out at first was suddenly understood after Shen Ningning analyzed it.

"That's unreasonable!" He gritted his teeth, lifted the quilt and was about to get down: "I'm going to kill this old guy now!"

However, he only moved a little and fell to his knees in pain.

Shen Ningning clicked her tongue and shook her head: "The way you are now, I'm afraid you'll just die if you go. I advise you to rest well. The poison is finally cured, so don't suffer from lameness again."

Tuoye felt very ashamed.

Xiumu's plan for Qi Xiuwei was a bitter trick.

Originally, they had agreed to let the injured Tuoye appear in front of Shen Ningning, telling her that Qi Xiuwei was injured and asking her to come to rescue him.

When Shen Ningning arrives at their trap, she will be caught together and locked up in a hidden cellar.

When the time comes, Qi Xiuwei will pretend to reconcile and live and die with Shen Ningning. When they get out, she will naturally win Shen Ningning's trust and guilt.

However, Tuoye never expected that this plan that seemed to be aimed at Shen Ningning was actually aimed at him.

The assassin said it was just for show, but he poisoned the blade!

Tuoye got up in embarrassment, lay down on the couch again, and hammered the bed board hard.

"When I get some rest, I will make this old guy Hideki regret it."

Seeing him gnashing his teeth, Shen Ningning's dark and moist eyes paused.

"I heard that Xiaowei was picked up by you after she came out of prison. Is she in a good mood?"

Tuoye was silent.

He didn't know how to answer Shen Ningning.

Qi Xiuwei not only plotted with Xiumu to harm her, but was also full of resentment towards Shen Ningning.

Seeing this, Shen Ningning just shook her head helplessly.

"She must still resent me, forget it, just let nature take its course." With that, she turned and left.

Tuoye was alone in the room and remained silent.

Although he hated Hideki, he did not reveal all of their plans.

Because Qi Xiuwei will soon come and pretend to seek Shen Ningning's forgiveness, so as to find ways to steal the secret recipe of gunpowder.

This is something that is beneficial to the Changliu Kingdom. No matter how much Takuno hates Hideki, he will not joke about the future of the Changliu Kingdom.

They have been planning for so long and cannot afford to fall short.

Therefore, I can only feel sorry for Shen Ningning!

The night is dark.

Shen Ningning rode the Black Wolf King and came to the forest.

A large number of people and horses lurked on the mountain like a thick black fog.

A man walked out of it, his thin eyes were deep and cold.

When he saw Shen Ningning, Mo Lingwei stepped forward: "Can we go in and arrest him?"

Shen Ningning shook her head: "Wait a minute, now is not a good time."

Mo Lingwei frowned and looked up at the mansion in the mountains under the moonlight.

His only dissatisfaction with this matter was that why could Tuoye live in Shen Ningning's house on Langshan Mountain!

When you catch Takuno, don't blame him for being rude.
