Mountains and rivers pray for peace

Chapter 178 It's none of my business

Huo Qi glanced at him and told him to watch the fire from the other side and watch the show behind her back?Even if few people in the capital city have seen His Highness' true appearance, they should still be careful and make sure nothing goes wrong.

Shen Yuning accurately saw through her thoughts through the layer of white gauze.He raised his eyebrows at her casually, and Huo Qi understood that this man was very arrogant and did not pay attention to the people in Baotai Gambling House, nor was he worried about anyone causing trouble for him.

When Feng Da saw the two of them flirting with each other, he immediately came to his senses. No wonder this little girl dared to rush out unscrupulously to challenge him. It turned out that she even brought a pretty boy as a bodyguard.He was so angry that he didn't even bother to pull out the willow leaf dart in his right palm. He endured the excruciating pain and held up the stick in his left hand, immediately wanting to give Shen Yuning a fierce blow.

Shen Yuning's eyes flashed, and he stepped aside to protect Huo Qi. Huo Qi hadn't seen his movements clearly yet, but saw a blue-gray phantom passing through the air. When he looked again, Feng Da had flown three feet away, clutching his chest and letting out a wild beast. A cry of pain.

Shen Yuning looked calm, and the way he looked at Feng Da was no different from looking at a corpse.

Then, he leaned down and lowered his head to be eye level with Huo Qi. He raised his chin towards Feng Da and asked, "Have you calmed down?"

Huo Qishuer understood that no wonder Shen Yuning used a willow leaf dart to hurt Feng Da when he arrived. He must have heard the dirty words Feng Da said.In fact, there was no need for her to be angry at those words, but at this moment, she still curled her lips and smiled: "Calm down."

Feng Da was kicked so hard that his heart ached, and at the same time his mind became clearer. He realized that he was no match for Shen Yuning, so he cursed at the dumbfounded followers: "What are you still doing? You bunch of idiots, hurry up and give up." I'll kill him!"

The group of thugs received Feng Da's order, hesitated for a moment, looked at each other, and then swarmed forward with sticks in hand.

The people watching the show had their hearts in their throats, and couldn't help but sweat for Shen Yuning.If more than a dozen people bully one person, in their eyes, it seems that they have lost their martial ethics!
But it turned out that their worries were a bit unnecessary.Because in just a blink of an eye, those little minions all fell to the ground, wailing all over the place.From a distance, it looks like chess pieces falling on the chessboard one by one.But those who move their feet remain calm and untouched by dust.

Shen Yuning did not waste any more time entangled with anyone, but turned around and walked to the old man checking the money, and said coldly: "Where are the things?"

The old man was still stretching his neck to watch the two men and horses fighting, but he didn't expect Shen Yuning to attack him so quickly. He also knew that this man was difficult to deal with, so he didn't dare to make a move. After holding it in for a long time, he finally said: "You... Do you know how to respect the old and love the young?"

Huo Qi: "..."

These four words do not exist in this master's mind.

The next second, Shen Yuning ran out of patience and pulled up the old man's clothes. The old man suddenly felt his feet flying into the air and his whole body was trembling with fear. After a while, a silver ingot slid down his trousers, and his body Shaking, he closed his eyes resignedly.

Huo Qi waved to Wang Shouli, "Come here and identify yourself. Is this your money?"

Wang Shouli came back to his senses, picked up the silver, looked at the words engraved on the bottom, and said hurriedly: "Exactly! This is the money I gave Feng Da in the gambling house, it can't be wrong!"

"What else do you have to say?" Huo Qi looked at Feng Da. She deliberately raised her voice, not only to force Feng Da to question, but also to let the people around her see Feng Da's face clearly.

"You - you are lucky this time!" Feng Da felt pain all over his body. Seeing that the situation was over, he got up from the ground, said harsh words, and limped into the gambling house with the defeated soldiers.As if he was afraid that Shen Yuning would continue to investigate, he didn't forget to slam the door shut, followed by a rustling sound of locking the door.

The old man met Shen Yuning's sharp eyes and hurriedly shouted: "My hero, please forgive me, my hero, please forgive me. It was all ordered by Feng Da. I only collected one or two silver coins to make a false witness for him. Everything else is the same." I have nothing to do with it!”

When everyone heard this, they booed.

Shen Yuning glanced at Huo Qi, who shook his head. This old man was an insignificant character, and there was no value in catching him.Shen Yuning understood in his mind and said calmly: "Get lost." The old man was relieved and disappeared in a flash.

The onlookers also saw the farce clearly. It was nothing more than Feng Gang and the old man who checked the money, deliberately framing Wang Shouli.It's just that the devil is as tall as the Taoist. In the end, the conspiracy was exposed by Huo Qi and Shen Yuning who suddenly appeared.Once the dust has settled on the good show, many people enjoyed watching it and even clapped their hands and praised it.

"Young girl is really brave and heroic!"

"What a skill, young hero!"

"If it weren't for them, I'm afraid Wang Shouli would have to face a lawsuit!"

Seeing that he was saved, Wang Shouli hurriedly bowed to Huo Qi: "Thank you very much, girl, for speaking up. Wang Shouli has received great kindness from the girl tonight. If the girl is useful in the future, I will do my best to help."

"It's just a small thing, no need to thank you." Huo Qi smiled, turned around and left.Although there is no need to worry about the time when the key to the palace door is locked when returning to the palace from the secret passage, it is inevitable that complications will arise if the time is delayed for a long time.

Wang Shouli refused, bypassing Shen Yuning, blocking Huo Qi's departure, and tried one after another: "Miss and this young man next to you, are you brothers and sisters? It's better to choose a different day. Can I invite you two to the teahouse in front for a drink? Bo tea?"

Shen Yuning didn't speak, but stared at Huo Qi with interest.

Huo Qi faced that scorching gaze and said simply: "It's really not necessary."

Wang Shouli was not aware of the subtlety of the situation at all, and continued: "I would really feel bad if I received such a favor from the girl for no reason. Since the girl refuses to drink tea, I wonder if you can tell me your name and address, so that I can be happy. A place where I can repay my kindness.”

Huo Qi couldn't help but frown.She didn't plan to say more, and she didn't want to get too involved with Wang Shouli.Speaking of which, Wang Shouli often made plans for the Yuan family in his last life. Her willingness to say those two words for him tonight was nothing more than repaying the origin and affection of those words in her previous life.Once tonight is over, it's still bridge to bridge and road to bridge.

After a while, the air seemed to freeze. Before Huo Qi could answer, Wang Shouli heard the man next to her sneer.The sound was like mist and rain in autumn, very light and faint, but it made people chill.Coupled with the man's cold and indifferent eyes, it was like a bucket of cold water.

Shen Yuning seemed to have seen through his secret thoughts.

"I live five miles to the east of the city. If the girl needs a place in the future, you can come to my humble residence at any time." The feeling of having nowhere to hide made Wang Shouli's heart ache. He was too embarrassed to ask any more questions, so he had to fly away. As if running away.

Huo Qisheng had an exquisite mind, so how could he not notice the subtlety of the situation just now?Wang Shouli's look was clearly... even though Shen Yuning didn't say anything.

She helplessly shouted to Shen Yuning: "Your Highness."

Shen Yuning spread his hands and pretended to be innocent: "It has nothing to do with me."
