Luo Jianjian successfully dodged the attack. However, an old man with inconvenient legs was standing in the middle of the road with a walking stick in his hand. He clearly wanted to dodge, but his body refused to obey.

Luo Jianjian moved faster than she thought. Without thinking, she flew towards the old man, grabbed him and dragged him to the side of the road to prevent tragedy from happening.

"Uncle, are you alright?" Luo Jianjian looked at him with concern.

The old man first shook his head as he slowly raised his head. He clearly had the body of an old man, but his face was that of an ordinary young man.

The kind of face you can't find when you drop it into a pile of people.

Luo Jianjian felt that something was wrong. Suddenly, a cold light flashed in his eyes as the dagger in his hand stabbed towards Luo Jianjian's heart!

Luo Jianjian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She had saved him out of good intentions, but she didn't expect to save an assassin.

Fortunately, she had been studying seriously recently. Master Ling Tian had just taught her a backhand move, and it was just in time to come in handy.

Without even seeing Luo Jianjian move, the dagger was already in her hand!

Seeing that the situation was not good, the man took off the white hair wig on his head and tried to blend into the crowd.

How would Luo Jianjian let him succeed? The dagger cut into his left arm without any hesitation, leaving a clear scar on his left arm!

The man cried out in pain. Ignoring the wounds on his body, he disappeared into the crowd.

The clothes he wore were also ordinary. Most ordinary people would wear them, and they also looked ordinary. Luo Jianjian thought back and couldn't recall what he looked like. She had to admit that he was a good candidate to be an assassin.

Even if she was really captured, the killer wouldn't be able to be sure whether it was her or not. Fortunately, she left some scars on the killer's body so they could be easily found.

Everything happened too fast, and the surrounding crowd didn't even have time to scream.

Luo Jianjian got used to it and jumped on the horse. She wanted to find the man and ask him who ordered him.

Was it the Empress? Or someone else?

Luo Jianjian had also suddenly realized that she had inadvertently provoked a lot of enemies, causing her to be unable to recall who it was when someone bought her a life.

The carriage's curtain opened, revealing a familiar woman's face.

It was Yue Qiqi.

Yue Qiqi was a little surprised to see Luo Jianjian. Without exception, she was taunting her. "I didn't expect to meet you here."

Luo Jianjian forced a smile as she stared at the dagger in her hand. If only Guda had a fingerprint system, she would be able to find out who the murderer was as soon as possible.

"Luo Jianjian, you're quite capable, making enemies everywhere. Even the old man whom you saved with good intentions wanted to kill you." Yue Qiqi was obviously gloating.

Luo Jianjian retracted her gaze from the dagger and stared at Miss Yue doubtfully. "Miss Yue, based on what you said, you couldn't have called that person over, right?"

Yue Qiqi clenched her fists in displeasure, as if she was going to beat him up. As the dignified direct daughter of General's Mansion, how would I use such a despicable method? "

Luo Jianjian was originally trying to test Yue Qiqi. Although Yue Qiqi hated her, she had a general understanding of Yue Qiqi's character. If she hadn't gone straight to the ancient women, she probably wouldn't have been able to ask the Emperor for a marriage in public.

With Yue Qiqi's personality, if she really wanted to kill her, Yue Qiqi would most likely do it herself. Even if she found someone else, she would be generous enough to admit it.

Luo Jianjian still admired her for this point. This was the only girl who didn't hide her inner thoughts. It was because men hated her and wanted to be enemies with her.

"You're the best." After Luo Jianjian finished her sentence, she waved her reins and prepared to leave.

Yue Qiqi was restless as she sat in the carriage. She was not a reserved woman. If it weren't for her age at marriage, her father would have forced her to do something he didn't like, such as … When you go out and sit in the carriage, you're not allowed to show your face so easily to others.

"Wait!" She stopped Luo Jianjian.0

Luo Jianjian turned around and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Yue Qiqi asked her, "What do you want to do? Find the person who wants to kill you? "

Luo Jianjian neither denied nor answered.

Yue Qiqi chuckled. "Looks like it. You won't be able to find him."

At this point, Luo Jianjian became even more confused. "Why are you so sure?"

"That person just now doesn't seem like someone who is often nearby. At this time, you might have already left the city and retreated ten thousand steps. Even if you catch up to him, what can you do? Will the Prime Minister support you? "

Even Yue Qiqi could see that. Prime Minister Luo would only be nice when it came to Luo Jianjian, and the rest of the time Luo Jianjian was left to fend for herself.

Prime Minister Luo had been helping Luo Yuyan recently, so he wasn't in the mood to care about her at the moment.

Luo Jianjian wanted to laugh. From the start, she had no intention of letting Prime Minister Luo help her.

However … Yue Qiqi would not say all this for no reason. "What do you want to say?"

Yue Qiqi didn't try to conceal her thoughts at all. "Since there's nothing going on today and you're not injured, why don't we compete?"

"Compete in what?" Luo Jianjian had already stopped the horse.

"Aren't you riding? Just a race horse! If you win, this young miss will have my father help you investigate that person's background. As a general, this young lady's father naturally has some tricks up his sleeves. "

"What if I lose?" Actually, Luo Jianjian had already guessed Yue Qiqi's thoughts.

"If you lose?" Yue Qiqi spoke word by word, "If you lose, you can leave Eighth Prince in the future. You are not allowed to kiss me again. Also, if the emperor bestows me with the marriage engagement with Eighth Prince, you are not allowed to cause trouble!"

As expected, even until now, Yue Qiqi hadn't given up on this idea. She wanted to marry Murong Yun, and from that day until now, even if she was rejected in public, she still hadn't changed her mind.

Furthermore … Yue Qiqi was a little different from her.

Yue Qiqi could sleep soundly because no matter what she did, General Yue would clean up her mess for her. Since she didn't, she couldn't always rely on Murong Yun. Other than Murong Yun, she had no one else to rely on.

"How is it? Do you dare to compete? " Yue Qiqi provoked.

Luo Jianjian touched the horse's back. Yue Qiqi was right, she wanted to find that person's background, unless she relied on Murong Yun, she had no way to do it.

However, if she had the help of Yue Qiqi's father, she wouldn't have to trouble Murong Yun to be distracted by her matters.

After some thought, Luo Jianjian made a decision. "Alright, I'll compete with you."

Yue Qiqi was immediately overjoyed. She jumped down from the carriage, casually untied a horse from the front, and sat on the horse's back.

Yue Qiqi seemed to be an experienced player, but … She did not think she would lose.

Murong Yun, who just came over, saw all of this and used him as a gambler?

Where was he in her eyes? Can it be used as a wager?

Luo Jianjian … At that moment, Murong Yun felt as if he could destroy the heavens and the earth. It was as if he could once again see him being drenched in blood that night.

Luo Jianjian suddenly felt the temperature in her surroundings drop by quite a bit.

She turned around and her entire body went stiff!
