Seeing Mu Jinghu's helpless look, Qin Yining also knew that he was stuck between Tian Jizi and Pang Xiao and was in a difficult position.
Mu Jinghu was an honest person. He had received orders from his real master, who was now his grandmaster, to protect Tian Jizi. Since he had promised, he would definitely not go back on his word. Actually, he had already disobeyed Tian Jizi's orders by coming to save her this time. It was very risky.
Looking at Tian Jizi's appearance, she must be in an important position in the Tatan royal family. If she knew that Mu Jinghu had ruined her plans, who knew how she would deal with him. Although Mu Jinghu was skilled in martial arts, Tian Jizi could not defeat him. However, the problem was that Mu Jinghu was too honest and would not fight back in front of her martial uncle.
She could now see that with Tian Jizi's temperament, she would also not show mercy to Mu Jinghu.
Qin Yining thought of this and said, "You should go back quickly. If your martial uncle finds out, I'm afraid it won't be good. I'll talk to Second Master Lu about it. When the city gates are opened, we'll think of a way to get out. "
Mu Jinghu shook his head and said, "Forget it. I'm afraid that the Khan will immediately search when he wakes up. I'll go out to investigate first and find some food, clothes and medicine for your injuries. If you fall sick now, it will be difficult in the future."
"It's okay. These are all superficial wounds. My body is very good, it won't affect me much."
Qin Yining was actually in a lot of pain, but the situation was special now. She could only endure it. Mu Jinghu had already gone against his master to save her. He had done his utmost for her, the wife of his friend, and had already done his best to go against his master. She did not want to add to his troubles.
Mu Jinghu thought about it but shook his head and insisted, "You still have to be more careful. If you leave the capital, your days outside will be difficult. At that time, it's still not certain whether there will be conditions for healing, but at the very least, we have to prepare some medicinal herbs and some necessities. "
After Mu Jinghu finished speaking, he waved his hand to signal Qin Yining to stop trying to persuade him. He then turned around and walked out of the door.
When Lu Heng saw that Mu Jinghu had walked far away, he sighed softly and said, "It's all thanks to this righteous man this time. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have been able to fight against the Khan's guards alone. It seems that birds of a feather flock together. Pang Zhixi's good friend is naturally a martial artist like him. "
Qin Yining sat down on the shabby wooden couch and let out a long sigh.
"That's Wang Ye's old friend. His martial uncle is a Tian Jizi. This time, I feel that Tian Jizi provoked the Khan, which is why she was so agitated to try to kill me. "
Lu Heng nodded. He would not ask about the relationship between Tian Jizi and Pang Xiao in detail. However, the matter of Tian Jizi provoking A Nari this time was very strange.
"Tian Jizi is an expert who is out of this world. She shouldn't be someone who would casually gossip. There must be a reason for what she did."
Qin Yining nodded and leaned tiredly against the wall behind him. "She definitely isn't someone who would stir up trouble for no reason. However, the more she acts like this, the more troublesome the matter is. "
"Yes. Because of this, I feel that there must be a conspiracy. " Lu Heng said somewhat helplessly, "There's no point in thinking too much. The most important thing now is that we can leave this place alive. After experiencing the earthquake and crossing the desert, we've endured so many hardships. If we capsize here, don't you think the two of us will feel aggrieved? "
Seeing that Lu Heng was still in the mood to joke in such a disadvantageous situation, Qin Yining could not help but admire him. Perhaps people who could reach Lu Heng's current position were not psychologically weak. It was not that they did not feel fear and panic, but they were able to control their emotions very well. They always kept themselves cold and calm, and were able to keep their minds in the clearest state. Therefore, there were some things that they would not make mistakes in their judgment.
In fact, Qin Yining was really scared today. At that time, he could brace himself and persuade himself that at worst, he could just treat it as being bitten by a dog. However, now that he thought about how he had been surrounded by A Nari's guards, and how he had looked at them obscenely …
When Qin Yining saw the despair on Xie's face, he felt really uncomfortable in his heart.
If they really did something, he did not know what kind of extreme things he could do.
Thinking in his heart for only a moment, Qin Yining smiled freely and said, "You're right. Great winds and great waves have passed. If the boat capsizes in the gutter, it would be very unjust. "
Lu Heng gazed at Qin Yining's side profile, his eyes filled with gentle and warm love.
"You're right. You're injured, you should rest for a while. "
Qin Yining smiled and said, "That's good too. You should also rest for a while and recharge your energy. We've knocked out the Khan and escaped, who knows how she'll kick up a fuss when she wakes up. When the time comes, she'll definitely mobilize all of her troops to capture us. "
Lu Heng sat down about a foot away from Qin Yining.
There was only one dilapidated wooden couch in this dilapidated house, so Qin Yining naturally did not mind sitting down with Lu Heng. Besides, they were running for their lives right now, so why would they care about such things? Lu Heng was also an upright gentleman, so Qin Yining really did not need to worry about anything.
Qin Yining closed his eyes and fell into a light sleep.
However, Lu Heng did not sleep. Through the roof that lacked tiles above his head, he looked at the few stars in the pitch-black sky that flickered between bright and dark. In his mind, he was constantly calculating the routes they could take when they left. They must escape back to Da Zhou. If they went around the desert, which direction should they take?
Just as Qin Yining closed his eyes to rest and Lu Heng frowned in deep thought, Mu Jinghu suddenly came in and said anxiously in a low voice, "Something happened outside!"
Qin Yining opened his eyes and asked with a frown, "What happened?"
Lu Heng also frowned with a serious expression.
Mu Jinghu said, "The Khan was assassinated. It's said that the two of you worked together to kill her. The prince consort has already summoned all the civil and military officials to the court to discuss this matter. All the guards in the city have been activated and are now searching the entire city for the two of you!"
Lu Heng was stunned, "But I didn't kill her, I only knocked her out!"
Mu Jinghu said, "But the people outside said that they saw the prince consort carrying the Khan, who was covered in blood. It's said that the Khan was stabbed three times and her blood was all drained. The people in the city are now in a state of panic and anger. "
Qin Yining pursed his lips. Thinking about Si Qin's attitude towards her, A Nari's jealousy towards her, and Tian Jizi's actions, the answer was obvious.
"I'm afraid that Si Qin and Tian Jizi had a lot of discussions to make A Nari jealous of me and want to kill me quickly. Tian Jizi's words to A Nari were the last straw that broke the camel's back. Today, even if the two of you did not come to save me, Si Qin would not have let me die. Because Si Qin's target is A Nari's life! "
