Chapter 274 Doubt

Cao Hua felt the soft touch on his arm, and his heart couldn't help but feel agitation. His reason still made him dare not enjoy it. He quickly pulled out his arm and frowned and said, "Miss, you are more steady, and men and women will not be able to get along with each other."

"If you die, you will become a piece of rotten meat, and you can control this."

Concubine Zhu Qu was indeed scared, grabbed Cao Hua's sleeve and carefully looked at the grass and shrubs around him.

The Black Feather Guard, who was exploring the surrounding area, had already noticed the movement here and quickly chased after him from all over the place.

Cao Hua looked at Zhu Qufei, who was so beautiful, and had no choice but to spread his hands: "Miss Zhu, I have a peer relationship with Xie Yijun. Strictly speaking, you are my elders. If you pull this, it will damage your reputation if you spread it."

"What's your reputation?" Zhu Qufei didn't let go.

Cao Hua frowned, and it was really hard to refute for a moment.

Concubine Zhu Qu hurriedly pulled Cao Hua back: "You touched him too, and you touched him twice. You can't be regarded as a ungrateful man who let me die in front of you. Hurry up and send me back, and you won't come out next time you're beaten to death."

“All right…”

After all, she was outside the country and the surrounding situation was unclear, so Cao Hua took Concubine Zhu Qu onto the carriage and sent her back to a safe place first.

Just now, although the assassin was covered in his face, his figure and movements looked very similar to a woman, and his goal was very clear, not for him.

Cao Hua thought for a while, frowned and asked, "Miss Zhu, there are still women in your enemy's family? Could it be that the murder caused by seducing his husband?"

Zhu Qufei's face was still slightly pale, and she stroked her chest with lingering fear. She felt a little displeased when she heard this: "I am a woman, who has no support and no words to deceive people. How can I survive in this world where people cannibalize people? This is called utilization, not seduction."

Cao Hua curled his lips and said, "I don't think I'm ashamed but proud." He didn't say it after all, and asked, "Who did you use to attract assassins? I didn't even notice it in advance, but it's not like a fish in the world."

Zhu Qufei frowned slightly and recalled a little. When she was assassinated, she had already seen that the person might be Zhu Yeqing. Her hidden skills were too sophisticated. Not many people could do this. Zhu Yeqing's purpose of killing her was very clear. People in the martial arts world fled to the court were despised by thousands of people, and were basically linked to selling friends for honor and forgetting justice when seeing profits. She used to know a lot of dirty things when walking in the martial arts world. Now these people know that she is with Cao Taisui, so naturally they don't believe that she will continue to keep her mouth shut and kill her for granted.

But Concubine Zhu Qu was also very innocent. She was inexplicably kidnapped and tied up by Cao Hua and could not even escape. In the future, Cao Hua let her go after the matter was completed. She had to continue eating food in the world, and she could not tell them about these things. She could only admit that she was unlucky.

"Well... I'm as good as Zhu Yeqing from Yuejiazhuang... I used to kill the eldest son of Yuejia, maybe to take revenge, you have to protect me..."

Cao Hua clearly felt something hidden in Zhu Qufei's words, and frowned and said, "Miss Zhu, you will be honest in front of me at the end. If something goes wrong, I can't explain to Xie Yijun."

Zhu Qufei sighed quietly: "The rules of the world have nothing to do with you. Young man, don't make things difficult for me."

Cao Hua knew that the people in the martial arts world followed some messy rules. Since they had nothing to do with him, they had no intention of asking questions.

Soon, Han'er, who was going to chase after him, ran back and caught up with the carriage, feeling a little guilty:

"Young Master, the thief is too cunning. He arranged his retreat in advance and lost it."

Cao Hua just now didn't kick too hard, but he must have broken a few bones. Even if he couldn't die, it would not be easy to get rid of the Black Feather Guard's tracking.

"Miss, this bamboo leaf green is not simple. Now let the tiger return to the mountain, be careful."

"Isn't you there?"

Concubine Zhu Qu came up to you again and smiled embarrassedly: "This guy will definitely come to kill me again. You must not let me die. The Yue family doesn't have the courage to attack you. You just need to stand in front of me."

Cao Hua did not take Yuejiazhuang seriously, nodded and did not ask any more.

--------

There are more than Zhu Yeqing who hides around Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

After Cao Hua's car frame left the Zhenyuan Escort Agency, Lu Pingyang, disguised as a dress, came out of the ruins of the escort agency and returned to his place in the county town.

In the house, Tie Xiao men were all laying thatch in the corridor and going to sleep. In order to prevent being discovered by neighbors and yamen runners, everyone was silent. The original owner of the house had been detained, leaving only a few obedient maids, who came in and out to buy groceries every day, pretending to be normal living.

In the study room that originally belonged to the head of the family, there were two guards standing at the door, and no one was allowed to approach.

Lu Pingyang entered it with a familiarity. He looked up and saw Yan Hanqing sitting behind the desk, flipping through the list of Tie Xiao. The light was dimly lit with candlelight, and it was printed on Yan Hanqing's face with four twisted scars, looking hideous and terrifying.

"Master."

Lu Pingyang turned his head and looked at the inner room covered by the pearl curtain. There was a faint smell of medicine in the room, and occasionally a few young man's coughs came from it.

Yan Hanqing closed the roster and shook his head: "Master has suffered from the cold, let's just say it."

Lu Pingyang walked to the desk and sat down, took off the hat on his head, and said seriously: "Today, Cao Taisui took Concubine Zhu Qu to the Zhenyuan Escort Agency. I hid nearby and heard Concubine Zhu Qu say..."

Before and after, Lu Pingyang repeated Zhu Qufei's words in detail.

Yan Hanqing seemed to have been recalled as well. She raised her hand and touched the scar on her face, looking out the window silently.

"What did Cao Hua react when he heard this?"

In the inner room, the young man asked a question.

Lu Pingyang frowned and thought about it carefully: "Although I can't see Cao Taisui's expression, through just a few words, I can hear that he had no reaction, and I just comforted Concubine Zhu Qu for a few words."

"How to comfort me?"

"Well... Cao Taisui said, 'How old is he? He still cries, so that your apprentice can't laugh at you when he sees it', and then Zhu Qufei said, 'I'm sad, what's wrong with crying?'..."

"Enough."

Yan Hanqing had the intention to listen to these flirting words, got up and went back and forth, with a little puzzled look in her eyes, as if she was a little suspicious of Lu Pingyang's statement, and even asked seriously:

"Are you sure you hear it clearly?"

"Master, are you not at ease doing things? I have been hiding in the house for three days and I can definitely hear it clearly."

The young man in the inner room was obviously a little confused and said softly: "How could it be that there was no response? Could it be that we were looking for the wrong person?"
