After rebirth, I became the widow of my mortal enemy

Chapter 168 He is doomed

Ning Miao's breathing stagnated and he looked at Yan Mobai.

The two men's eyes met, and they both understood.

The arrest of the assassin was fake, it was just an excuse to search the Dali Temple, and it was obviously aimed at her.

Yan Mobai narrowed his cold eyes: "So, they ambushed me to kill two birds with one stone. One is to kill me, and the other is to search the Dali Temple while I am dead or seriously injured and have no time to take care of other things."

Ning Miao pursed her lips and frowned slightly.

I guessed that Prince Kang would suspect the Dali Temple, but I didn't expect him to act so quickly.

"Lu Zhun is actually King Kang's man." A cold arc appeared at the corner of Yan Mobai's mouth.

Ning Miao was also a little surprised by this.

Jundingsi was an office directly under the emperor, obeying the emperor's orders, handling the emperor's affairs, being directly loyal to the emperor, and being responsible to the emperor.

One can imagine his powerful status; the person in charge of this department even has the power to execute first and report later.

As a result, Lu Zhun, the seal holder, has always been the object of competition among the princes to win over.

She remembered that in her previous life, Prince Kang had tried his best to win over Lu Zhan, but Lu Zhan's attitude was always unclear.

Unexpectedly, in this life, Lu Zhan has already stood on the side of King Kang, and even stood up when King Kang encountered misfortune and was about to die. It can be seen that the relationship between the two is very solid.

She guessed that King Kang must have some leverage over him, and that if they rose together, they would all rise and if they fell together, they would all fall together.

"What should we do now? Guard Lan is still in the Dali Temple, and the gatekeeper saw him leave the Dali Temple with his own eyes."

"Even if he is from the Dali Temple, we can make up some excuses, but Aunt Zhou is not here, which is the biggest problem."

"With Aunt Zhou not here, they must have known that this person was me. It was Guard Lan who replaced me and left."

"Since they are targeting me, they will not give up and will definitely cause trouble in various ways."

"For example, they said that Guard Blue was the assassin they were hunting."

"Because the gatekeeper saw Guard Blue leave, and Guard Blue appeared in the Dali Temple, and the assassin flew into the Dali Temple, which was a perfect match."

"For example, saying that 'Aunt Zhou' is the assassin."

"Because it can be said that the Blue Guard that the concierge saw leaving was Aunt Zhou in disguise, so the real Blue Guard is still in the Dali Temple, and Aunt Zhou is missing, which just happens to fit."

"If it's the former, Guard Lan will be in great danger."

"Lu Zhun will definitely take him back to Jundingsi as an assassin and use torture to force him to tell me my whereabouts."

"It's more likely that he would be killed directly, first to vent his anger, second to prevent the emperor from asking about it, and third to prevent you from trying to rescue him."

"So..." Ning Miao looked worried.

Pursing his lips, he continued, "If it's the latter, and Aunt Zhou is the assassin, they will definitely investigate 'Aunt Zhou', which will implicate a lot of people."

"I was introduced to the Dali Temple kitchen by Aunt Xu. This will implicate her, Manager Liu, and Nie Huan. Given the degree of madness that King Kang is now in, he will definitely take ruthless action against these people in order to force me to show up."

Ning Miao clenched his palms as he spoke.

Yan Mobai looked at her and knew that her analysis was correct.

Since the other party has made such a big fuss, ambushing him and sending out the Zhaoding Division, they will definitely not give up easily until they catch him.

"I'll go to the Dali Temple to take a look." Yan Mobai propped himself up and tried to get up.

Because of the force, the wound burst open, and the cloth wrapped around his body was instantly stained red with blood. Yan Mobai raised his neck and gasped, with veins on his forehead and neck bulging.

Ning Miao was so scared that he quickly pushed him back down.

"Don't move. It's too late for you to go over now. Besides, what I just said is the truth. There is nothing you can do unless you hand me over."

Yan Mobai frowned weakly: "What are you thinking? Not to mention that I can't possibly hand you over, just look at the consequences of handing you over. If you deceive the emperor, I will kill the princess, and the Yongchang Marquisate will execute all nine clans, and you can't show up."

Ning Miao naturally knew all this. She just said that to tell him that even if he went there, there would be nothing he could do.

"Sir, let me go to the Dali Temple to take a look." Chi Feng was still outside the door.

Yan Mobai said "hmm".

The footsteps outside the door left in a hurry.

"If I had known earlier, I should have killed that bastard at the same time when I killed Lingling." Ning Miao gritted his teeth.

Yan Mobai looked at her.

"Then your current situation may be even more difficult. The one dealing with you is the emperor. Killing a prince is very different from killing a palace maid. Now that the prince is dead, the emperor will definitely investigate thoroughly."

Ning Miao said nothing. How could she not know all this?

At that time, she took this into consideration and only scratched King Kang's face instead of killing him.

Because she was in such a hurry, she couldn't guarantee that she had done everything perfectly, and she couldn't be completely sure that after she set the fire, the body would be completely identified as hers.

If the body was found not to be hers, then she would be the murderer. After all, so many palace servants watched the dark room where Prince Kang took her.

She is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Marquis's family and a murderer, so the entire Marquis's family cannot escape blame.

As Yan Mobai just said, killing a prince and killing a palace maid are completely different in nature.

If she had killed a palace maid, she could still find a way out and an excuse to exonerate herself, but if she had killed a prince, no matter whether it was justified or not, it would be a heinous crime to exterminate the entire family.

Dali Temple, brightly lit

The people from the Jundingsi surrounded the Dali Temple.

All those living in the Dali Temple and those on night duty there were required to gather in the courtyard.

Director Liao knocked on the doors of the side rooms one by one: "Hurry up, hurry up, there is an assassin sneaking in, everyone gather in the yard, the Zhaoding Division wants to search for the assassin."

In the side room, Lan Ying's heart was beating like a drum.

He didn't believe that any assassin would sneak into the Dali Temple.

Not to mention that the Dali Temple is not a place that ordinary people would sneak into. Just the fact that the Dali Temple is the territory of his master makes no one dare to sneak in.

Moreover, it was too much of a coincidence that the Zhaoding Division came to the Dali Temple to search as his master had just gotten into trouble today.

He couldn't help but suspect that these people came prepared and had other purposes.

He didn't know whether they were coming for Ning Pan or searching for someone else or something else.

But he knew he couldn't escape.

Ning Pan can disguise himself as him, but he can't disguise himself as Aunt Zhou.

If you are short, you can raise the soles of your shoes, but if you are tall, you cannot become shorter.

Moreover, since they are searching for assassins, they will definitely check everyone's face to see if they have disguised themselves.

So, he can only be himself.

After a while, when everyone gathers together, they will be discovered that he, who had originally left, is still there, while 'Aunt Zhou' who should have been there is nowhere to be seen.

There is a good chance that he will be considered an assassin.

If they were coming for Ning Pan, they would be sure that the missing Aunt Zhou was Ning Pan, and that he was the one who replaced Ning Pan, and they would definitely not let him go.

Not only will they not let him go, they may also use him to threaten his family and Ning Pan.

He suddenly felt fortunate for what he had done tonight.
