Meng Niaoniao and Madam Meng looked at Jiang Ying in shock as he suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley.

Especially her calm and confident look. Even if Meng Niaoniao didn't go crazy, she would be greatly stimulated.

Besides, she has long been neither human nor ghost.

Upon hearing this, Meng Niaoniao could no longer control the hatred and anger in her body, and rushed towards Jiang Ying.

Thinking that she appeared here alone, it was a good opportunity for Meng Niaoniao to take revenge.

But before she could get close, a gust of wind blew on her cheek. The next moment, Qi Ren showed no mercy and kicked Meng Niaoniao three meters away.

"Puff..." Meng Niaoniao fell heavily to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood in embarrassment.

Jiang Ying stepped forward, pulling Xiao Jiao, who had escaped the maid's clutches, with one hand, and holding Xiao Jiao's younger brother with the other. His voice was clear, pleasant, and a little annoyed, "Alas... I still didn't get the timing right. If I had shown up a little later, it would have been a tea, and Miss Meng would have really picked the ointment off Xiao Jiao's face and applied it to her own face, making her bleed profusely. That would have been a sight to behold."

Clang——

The maid was so frightened that she trembled all over and dropped the medicine bag on the ground.

Is she…is she telling the truth? Fortunately, the young lady was a step late!

But when he looked at her again, Meng Niaoniao was lying on the ground, not knowing whether she was dead or alive. It seemed that her fate was not much better than that...

Jiang Ying said no more and turned around and left with the two siblings.

Seeing this, Widow Liu wanted to escape, but Qi Ren would not give her the chance.

He picked up the medicine bag that had fallen to the ground and stuffed it into Widow Liu's mouth. "Since you are so kind-hearted, how can I not let you help others to your heart's content? I believe that even if you destroy your face, those old bachelors and beggars in the City God Temple will not despise you."

When Widow Liu heard this, she fainted from fright, but Qi Ren would not sympathize with her. A person who is so cruel to a child for money does not deserve to live in this world!

Finally, it seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like only a moment. Mrs. Meng suddenly came back to her senses from her shock, rushed towards the dying Meng Niaoniao, looked at her for a moment, then suddenly ran forward again, and with a thud, knelt at the entrance of the alley that Jiang Ying had just walked through.

"Ms. Jiang, we were wrong. Please, spare my daughter's life!"

Jiang Ying sneered, and without stopping, he took the two children back to the Duke's Mansion.

Madam Meng felt that it was over. She didn't know what had gone wrong, but now that this matter had been discovered, with Jiang Ying's temper and methods, it was definitely over...

She sat on the ground in despair, her mind in a mess.

My daughter, was she killed by her?

After a while, she realized that there was a pair of exquisite and noble cloud-patterned boots beside her?

Madam Meng was startled and looked up suddenly, "You... Your Highness the Prince!"

Yan Zhuo said, "Before tomorrow, the Meng family must disappear from the capital. Otherwise, Meng Yuchun's bribery and corruption, his private fireworks business leading to the burning of innocent people, and the death of several houses will be reported to the emperor tomorrow morning!"

How could simply getting rid of Meng Niaoniao be enough to appease his son Ying'er's anger?

Besides, Meng Yuchun deserved to die!

He was not exposed before because he was just playing the long game. There was something wrong with the amount of gunpowder used in his fireworks shop, so someone set it on fire to cover it up.

He has been trying to find out where the missing gunpowder went, but unfortunately he has not found any clues yet.

Xiaojiao's younger brother is called Xiaoqiao. Both of their parents have passed away, so they are orphans.

One of them had a rotten face and the other had a broken leg. Jiang Ying asked Nanny Tang to arrange a place for them to live outside the mansion and let them recover before sending them away.

Ever since she gave birth to a child, she couldn't bear to see the child suffer.

Although she was delayed for half an hour by the damn Meng Niaoniao, it did not affect her and Yan Zhuo's continued journey to Xinghua Village.

The village was in the mountains, far away from the official road. Once out of the city, one had to take a small road, so one could not take a carriage and could only ride a horse.

Qi Ren led two horses over.

Although Jiang Ying looked confident, she was a little unsure about riding a horse for a long time.

But he didn't want to ride on the same horse with Yan Zhuo. Being taken advantage of by him was the least of his worries. If he rode out alone and something unexpected happened, he would be in a very passive position.

"Oh, it would be great if Lao Hei was here right now. Lao Hei is not only a horse with excellent speed, but also smart. Even the prince was saved by him." Qi Ren fiddled with the sword and said.

After being reminded by him, Jiang Ying suddenly remembered, "That's not right, Qi Ren. Didn't you all say that Lao Hei has a strong sense of direction and never gets lost? But he's been out with my dad for at least seven or eight days. Why hasn't he come back yet?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Ren looked at Yan Zhuo, and obviously felt that Lao Hei had been missing for a little too long this time?

Yan Zhuo stood tall and held the horse, his eyes looking at the high city wall, and his eyes narrowed unconsciously.

"It's really not normal. Ying'er, get on the horse, let's go and take a look along the way."

According to what he told Lao Hei, he should be back after sending Duke Jiang to Shili Pavilion, which would take at most three days.

But it’s been seven or eight days…

After helping Jiang Ying onto the horse, Yan Zhuo, with his graceful and agile posture, stepped on the stirrups and sat on it. He pulled the reins and circled Jiang Ying in his arms, "Qi Ren, keep an eye on the capital, and keep an eye on the Meng family."

Although Meng Yuchun is not a person to be feared, he is not a fool and may not be willing to resign and leave Beijing.

It doesn't matter what he does, as long as it doesn't affect the overall situation, but Yan Zhuo is afraid that he will become desperate and take action against the Jiang family, so he must let Qi Ren keep an eye on him to feel at ease.

Qi Ren nodded to show that he understood.

"Prince, Sister Ying, you can stay outside for a few more days. There's no need to rush back." Qi Ren waved his hands, looking quite excited.

Now that Sister Ying is gone, he doesn't have to worry about so many things and can talk to Siyu as he pleases.
