On the stone table, the paper slip rustled. The table was cracked by arrows. Although Situ Yaoru and Tantai Wuyue were fine, their hearts were filled with caution at this moment.

Tantai Wuyue used a brocade handkerchief to pick up the note on the table. There was a single word written on it: KILL!

"What is this?" Situ Yaoru frowned, puzzled.

"This is the sign of the Misty Pavilion. The Misty Pavilion was a place that specialized in killing people for their goods. As long as they had enough silver, people would kill people. No matter who it was, they would dare to kill. And their symbol was this piece of paper. It was said that the assassins of the Misty Pavilion would give them a warning before they killed anyone — a warning with the word "kill" written in it. Of course, there were many ways to warn others. The most famous one was the blood-red 'Kill' character that had been painted all over the house of the previous prime minister of Brightmoon Kingdom. And as it turned out, they had indeed done it. The head of the Prime Minister was taken away from the family of the heavily guarded Prime Minister. "From then on, the reputation of the Misty Hall has spread." After Tantai Wuyue finished speaking, he tore this piece of paper into pieces. His face darkened.

"In other words, someone wants to kill me?" Situ Yaoru pulled out the arrow with great interest, but she wasn't afraid in the slightest. Right now, her martial arts had almost recovered. It couldn't be said that compared to the experts of this era, if they wanted to kill her, they would have to pay a price. If it wasn't for the fact that she couldn't bring him back after she transmigrated, she wouldn't even need to be afraid. But now, he had to be relatively careful.

"I think so, but it might be because he wanted to kill me. After all... I'm here too. " Tantai Wuyue continued. "You don't need to lie to me. If you want to kill you, this warning shouldn't appear here." Since you have appeared in the Situ Family, this proves everything. "

"It will be fine." Tantai Wuyue consoled.

"Right." Situ Yaoyue nodded. However, Tantai Wuyue's expression was even uglier than Situ Yaoyue's. The reason why Misty Pavilion suddenly wanted to kill her was definitely not because of her. Perhaps, it was because of the imperial edict.

The culprit behind all of this was him. If he had found Luo Mingjing earlier, if he had been able to stay away from Situ Yaoyao instead of staying with her, then perhaps these things would not have happened. She might be able to live on in the ordinary world and become the young miss of the Situ Family. There were so many people who liked her. No matter who it was, they were all better than him. Thinking of this, Tantai Wuyue felt even more guilty.

Allure, I have some things to do, so I'll be leaving first." The man quickly ran away from Situ Yaoru's little courtyard. Situ Yaoru was a bit confused. What's wrong with this person? It was him who wanted to see her, and it was also her who left in a hurry. "However, this doesn't matter. The most important thing right now is the assassin from the Misty Pavilion.

She didn't come early or late, but she came right after she returned to the Situ Family. This really made people suspicious.

"Miss, the Madam is here." Just as Situ Yaoru was muttering to herself while holding the arrow, Lian-Er's voice rang out. When Situ Yaoru heard this, she hurriedly said, "Quickly invite my mother in."

"There's no need to invite me." Madam Situ interrupted her and walked into the courtyard. And beside her, there were two other people. One of them was Nangong Ling, whom they hadn't seen for a long time. The other one was Xiu-Er.

"Mother, what is this?"

"Master Nangong, I came to see you. I brought Xiu-Er here too." Allure, why are you holding an arrow? " Madam Situ's gaze landed on the arrow in her hand and she asked with a frown.

After Situ Yaoru heard this, she quickly threw the arrow on the ground and said, "Ah? Nothing, I just thought this thing was pretty fun. I was curious how the arrow was made, so I asked the crown prince to send it over. "

"Girl, you're always curious about useless things. If you have the time, why don't you learn more about zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting?" When people said that a woman was virtuous, they would lie. If you are untalented, others will laugh at you. [He is going to be the Crown Prince's consort in one month. How can he be so reckless like usual?] Madam Situ reprimanded.

"Mother taught me a lesson." Situ Yaoru braced herself and said.

"You little girl, you always set your tricks behind the scenes. It just so happened that Young Master Nangong also came, and mother just told him. From today onwards, he will still be here to teach you. I must learn from him properly in this one month's time, do you understand? "Of course, Xiu-Er will be with you." Madam Situ said faintly.

Hearing this, Situ Yaoru nodded her head. However, his scalp was numb. Nangong Ling had taught her. It was simply a nightmare.

"Well, you young people are here, and Mother has nothing to say to you. I'll leave first. You must learn from Young Master Nangong. " With that, Madam Situ left.

Situ Yaoyao looked at Nangong Ling and forced out a smile. He awkwardly said, "Nangong."

"I didn't expect that I would still have a chance to teach you." Nangong Ling did not know whether to laugh or cry. Originally, when he heard that Situ Yaoru had returned to the Situ Family, he wanted to come and visit her. He didn't expect that Madam Situ would want him to teach his. He didn't reject Madam Situ's request. In addition to the fact that the one teaching her was Situ Yaoru.

However, when he thought about how he had just returned from a foreign land and was about to be occupied again after having such a good time, he felt a little helpless.

"I also didn't expect that I would have the chance to learn from you, Nangong. I haven't even had the chance to thank you for what happened in the women's exam before. " Situ Yaoru laughed as she looked at the man.

"Thank me? That's your own ability. Speaking of which, I'm also a bit surprised. I didn't expect you to really enter that Boundless Forest. And he's even out safe and sound. "

"Actually, Wu Tianlin was not as scary as everyone else thought he was. As long as you can find someone who can help you out, everything will be resolved. It was as if a small world had been formed there. There are their rules. " Situ Yaoru explained.

"Don't say these things to the outside world. It didn't matter if you were from a small world or a man from a vast forest. If this gets out, it will be a disaster. " Nangong Ling looked at Situ Yaoyao with a serious expression.

Hearing this, Situ Yaoru naturally nodded her head.

"I didn't have much preparation for coming here today. Why don't I teach you tomorrow?" [Oh right. There is also Lady Xiu-Er.] As Nangong Ling said this, he looked to Xiu-Er and said, "Madam Situ has entrusted you to me. I will teach you as I taught you."

"Thank you, Master Nangong." Xiu-Er's face turned red and she felt embarrassed.

"No problem. Lady Xiu-Er, can you go have a rest first?" I have something to say to Situ. " Nangong Ling looked at Xiu-Er and asked.

Hearing this, Xiu-Er's face slightly changed, but it quickly returned to normal. She looked at Nangong Ling and obediently said, "Yes, Master Nangong." He looked at Situ Yaoru and said, "Cousin, Xiu-Er will be leaving now." With that, he left in small steps.

"What are you saying? You actually want to push me back?" Situ Yaoru playfully said.

On the other hand, Nangong Ling picked up the arrow on the ground and twirled it in his hand. "This thing shouldn't be brought by the Crown Prince, right?"

"He brought it."

"The word 'Misty Hall' is written on it." As Nangong Ling said this, he handed the arrow over to Situ Yaoyao. Indeed, the word 'Misty Pavilion' was engraved on the arrow.

"Even if it is carved with the word, can't it be brought by the Crown Prince?" Situ Yaoyue was stubborn.

"Your desk is broken." Nangong Ling's eyes fell on the stone table. Only then did Situ Yaoru's expression darken. "Alright, I won't be able to hide anything from you."

"You were too careless. If it wasn't for the fact that Madam Situ didn't pay attention to them, she would have discovered them as well. "

"My fault, I will find someone to fix this table later. As for those arrows … Situ Yaoru frowned.

"Leave it to me. When he heard that His Majesty had decreed that they should marry the crown prince, he felt that something was going to happen. I just don't know who wanted to kill you. " Nangong Ling said.

"I'm also curious which family's girl is so vicious." Situ Yaoru said.

"You don't seem afraid?"

"If I'm afraid it'll solve the problem, I'll hide right now." Situ Yaoru retorted. When Nangong Ling heard this, he nodded his head, "That's true. The Misty Pavilion is useless. If you feel afraid in your heart, I can help you. "
