”I didn't expect you to be so easy to catch.”
A middle-aged man was sitting on the highest chair in the main hall of the wooden building, drinking tea leisurely while glancing at Mu Zhihuan from the corner of his eyes.
Although the man had a robust physique, his actions didn't seem like those of a boorish man.
Mu Zhihuan faintly frowned: ”Who are you? ”Why did you catch me?”
The man slowly put down the teacup and shot a glance at Mu Zhihuan from the corner of his eye: ”It's enough as long as I know who you are. Mu Zhihuan, the wangfei whose Prince Lee's Mansion is not favoured, is currently being carried by Jiang Zisu's side almost all the time.
”Of course, it could also be because you have a cute son, and the reason why you're the talented girl that the Wind Bird has recently sprung up might not be because of me.”
Who knew that this person would be able to investigate his background so clearly? Mu Zhihuan's heart sank.
At first, she had been very optimistic, thinking that it was just a robbery. But now, it seemed that it wasn't a robbery, the other party had come precisely for her.
”You are from the Consort Xian?”
If one were to talk about the people he had offended recently, other than Yang Qiuyu, it would be the Consort Xian.
Yang Qiuyu was only the daughter of a merchant family. It was impossible for them to get to know these bandits, so they could only be members of the Consort Xian.
The man didn't expect her to react so quickly. He squinted his eyes and smiled. ”I guessed the right direction, but she isn't enough to order me around.”
Hearing this, Mu Zhihuan was startled, and suddenly remembered the person that Gu Mingxuan told her about at the crown prince's residence.
It's over, Mu Zhihuan's heart almost sank to the bottom of the lake, this person actually even told me this, it seems like he's not going to let her out alive.
”What are you talking about? I don't understand, how much did Consort Xian give you? Let me go, I'll give you twice as much. ”
Seeing that Mu Zhihuan was pretending to be stupid, the man did not reveal it, but now is not the time, I just want to see you, if there's nothing else, bring her away.
Just as he said that, the bronze colored muscular man walked in, and just as he was about to grab Mu Zhihuan's arm, he was slapped away by Mu Zhihuan.
She frowned and glared at the man unhappily. ”I told you to speak properly! ”Don't do anything.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the man's arm swelled up at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.
The robust man abruptly kneeled on the ground in pain as large droplets of sweat dripped from his forehead. His pitch-black face was pale from the pain. What did you do to me! ”
Mu Zhihuan looked at the muscular man with contempt: ”Nothing, just venom. You have two choices now.”
”The first life is more important, take this arm off.”
”Second, die with this arm.”
The meaning behind his words was that no matter what, this man would lose an arm.
The brawny man's face was full of blue veins from the pain.
After he heard Mu Zhihuan's words, he unhesitatingly pulled out the sword at his side, pulled out a belt and tied it around his arm, then chopped down without hesitation. A trickle of blood flowed out from the man's mouth, and then, she fell unconscious from the pain.
Mu Zhihuan only coldly looked at the scene before him, her pair of clear and cold eyes unmoved.
