Qin Yining nodded. Enduring the pain in his body, he turned around and smiled at the masked man in black. "Young Master Mu, thank you very much."
That man's body stiffened, and he said stiffly, "You, I …"
"You don't have to hide it. We've known each other for quite some time. How could I not recognize your figure and facial features? You came to save me without telling your Martial Uncle, right? "
Mu Jinghu pulled down the black cloth covering his face, and looked at Qin Yining somewhat guiltily. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.
Lu Heng said, "This is not a place to stay for long. Let's leave quickly and find a place to hide."
"Okay."
The three of them left the courtyard, and under Mu Jinghu's guidance, they went further and further away.
At the same time, A Nari opened her eyes in a daze, and immediately hissed in pain from her neck. Just as she was about to struggle to get up, she saw a pair of men's boots in front of her.
A Nari raised her head and saw Si Qin standing in front of her, dressed in a brocade robe.
"Prince Consort, you're here!" A Nari immediately stood up, one hand rubbing her neck, the other tugging at Si Qin's sleeve and acting coquettishly. "Did you find out that I wasn't in the palace, so you came looking for me? Qin Yining, that b * tch, actually colluded with a wild man to escape. She even injured me! My neck hurts! "
Si Qin smiled tenderly at A Nari, his long arms wrapped around her, and his large hand rubbed her neck. "Does it hurt here?"
A Nari closed her eyes, her forehead resting on Si Qin's shoulder. "It's here. That Lu Heng kidnapped me, and even knocked me out. Lu Heng also brought along a highly skilled subordinate, compared to my …"
A Nari's voice stopped abruptly.
She lowered her head in disbelief, and looked at the bloody hole in her chest. The blood-stained dagger was in the hands of the man she loved deeply.
"You!"
Another slash of the knife pierced into her abdomen.
The intense pain and the shock of being struck by lightning caused her eyes to widen. A line of blood appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Si Qin, I've treated you well. I love you so much. Why did you …"
Another slash.
After the third stab, Si Qin slowly laid A Nari flat on the ground. His eyes were filled with tenderness as he said in a low and hoarse voice, "Rest in peace. I will rule Tatan and unify the world. I will also avenge the people from Da Zhou who killed you. "
Blood continued to flow out. A Nari's body twitched, and his eyes were filled with anger and sorrow.
She never thought that she would die in the hands of this man.
All of a sudden, she remembered the hints and hints he had given her several times in Qin Yining. At that time, she had said that Si Qin's voice was too loud among the people and that they held too much power. Could it be that Qin Yining had noticed something since then?
She hated herself for being such an idiot. She only thought about love and didn't even take Qin Yining's words to heart.
"B, B * stard!" A Nari's mouth was filled with blood. She glared fiercely at Si Qin. "You, won't, die, well!"
Si Qin hugged his shoulders and squatted in front of A Nari. He chuckled. "You're going to die. Do you think I won't have a good ending? I've endured your anger for so many years, and I've fought for you for so many years. I don't owe you anything. If you hate me, you can hate me if you don't find it tiring. "
A Nari opened her mouth and tried to raise her hand, but she couldn't do it.
As the darkness and coldness engulfed her, the last thing she saw was Si Qin's relieved smile.
Si Qin watched as A Nari trembled in pain and stopped breathing. Only her eyes remained open. The smile on his face gradually widened.
He sat on the ground and slowly wiped the blood off the dagger on A Nari's body. Then, he put away his boots and picked up the bloodstained A Nari as if she was a sleeping child. He used his large hand to wipe her eyes and closed them. Tears slowly flowed down her face.
"Khan, Khan, I'll avenge you!"
The sound of sobbing grew louder and louder as Siqin howled in grief.
The trusted aides who were dealing with the corpses of the guards in the courtyard rushed in. They saw Si Qin holding A Nari's body and crying his heart out. His body was covered in blood and he looked miserable.
His angry and sorrowful cries were like that of a wild beast in despair.
The trusted aides knelt on the ground and bowed their heads, paying respects to the deceased Khan.
Si Qin suddenly raised his head and said through gritted teeth, "Prince Zhongshun of Da Zhou, Imperial Concubine of the Qin Clan and Lu Heng of the Lu Clan have conspired to kill the Khan. Go out now and search the entire city. You must capture these two alive! Also, summon all the civil and military officials to the court immediately! "
"Yes!"
The trusted aides responded in a loud voice and immediately went to carry out the orders.
Si Qin refused to let go of A Nari's body and carried her all the way back to the palace. Along the way, many commoners heard the commotion and ran out to see what was going on. When they saw Si Qin covered in blood and sobbing while holding their Khan, the commoners also cried out in grief.

Qin Yining, Lu Heng and Mu Jinghu were currently hiding in an abandoned hut in the depths of a narrow alley near the city gates.
It was unknown how long it had been since someone had lived in this hut. The roof tiles were mottled and a large part of the roof was missing. There were also clumps of weeds growing in the corners of the hut. The weeds had already withered in this season. Not to mention the cracks on the walls and the dilapidated wooden frames of the doors and windows.
Mu Jinghu said in a low voice, "This place is the closest to the southern city gates.
You guys stay here for the time being. I will prepare clothes, food and water for you guys later. When the city gates open in the morning, you guys can think of a way to escape. "
Qin Yining smiled and nodded, "Alright, thank you very much. Actually, I am very surprised and happy that you were able to come and help today. "
Mu Jinghu shook his head and said, "Today, I also happened to see Second Master Lu walking behind the Khan's group. I was curious so I followed you. I also didn't expect that the Khan would go and catch you in the middle of the night. "
"The Khan suspects my relationship with the Prince Consort and has long disliked me. In addition, Tian Jizi said that the Khan's fate and mine were similar. I knew that the Khan wanted to kill me."
Qin Yining smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Tian Jizi and I can be considered old acquaintances. I didn't expect that she would harm me."
Mu Jinghu lowered his head, his expression full of awkwardness. Not to mention that Qin Yining didn't understand, even he, who followed Tian Jizi every day, didn't know what was wrong with his Martial Uncle. Why did he have to sow discord between the Khan and the Prince Consort and incite the Khan to kill Qin Yining?
Mu Jinghu also knew that perhaps he wasn't smart enough and that his Martial Uncle didn't want to talk to him.
However, he still remembered his friendship with Pang Xiao. He also felt that Qin Yining was a good person and shouldn't lose his life. That was why he couldn't help but come out in the middle of the night to check on him.
