"Xiao Xuanyang."

In front of the princess's mansion, Xiao Li was stopped by someone just as he got out of the sedan chair. The angry voice made it clear that the person had bad intentions.

Looking up, I saw a woman dressed in pure white standing not far away. She was so white that even the veil on her head was white.

Xiao Li almost didn't recognize him for a moment.

"Chen Pingting?"

Looking at her clothes and headdress, Xiao Li's eyelids twitched. Could this person be wearing mourning for Lu Yanzhi?

Don't say it, this is definitely something Chen Pingting would do.

Chen Pingting's eyes were blazing with anger and hatred as she strode towards Xiao Li. When she was only three steps away, her expression suddenly became ferocious. She pulled out a dagger and stabbed at her, roaring.

"Xiao Xuanyang, go to hell!"

There was no way Xiao Li would let her get hurt, so she didn't even have to do anything. Yang Jun knocked Chen Pingting's dagger away and put the sword on her neck at the same time.

Seeing that her first attack failed, Chen Pingting didn't attack again. She just glared at Xiao Li in frustration and anger, with an expression of indifference: "Kill me if you have the guts."

Xiao Li was speechless: "What are you crazy about?"

"You still dare to ask me?"

Chen Pingting's eyes widened as if they were about to pop out of her head, and she gnashed her teeth as if she wanted to eat her: "You divorced him, you divorced him... Why did you kill him?"

"Why did you kill him?"

Chen Pingting screamed and tears fell, looking extremely desperate and painful.

Xiao Li is really disgusting, a psychopath.

"My killing him was a matter between him and me. Who do you think you are to question me? You don't think I would spare his life just because you like him and want to marry him, do you?"

Chen Pingting burst into tears and angrily asked, "I just like him, what's wrong with me?"

“…”

Xiao Li was really afraid of this kind of love-brained talk. It made her feel sick. Just because you like someone, you can do anything? What kind of logic is that?

"Then I just wanted to kill him, what's wrong with me?"

Chen Pingting was stunned, unable to believe it: "You killed someone and it's not wrong?"

Xiao Li raised an eyebrow: "Then it is glorious for you to covet other people's husbands?"

Chen Pingting was so angry that her face was horrible: "You don't love him at all, and he doesn't love you either. So you don't allow me to like him?"

As she spoke, she started crying again: "I liked him so much, and I knew there was no possibility for me to be with him. I just wanted to see him occasionally, but you got him but didn't cherish him, and even killed him. How could you have the heart to do that?"

She angrily shouted, "Xiao Xuanyang, I won't let you go. I will make sure you're buried with him in the eighteen levels of hell, never to be reborn!"

Xiao Li mocked him bluntly: "You are powerless in this human world, and you still want to interfere in the underworld?"

"Xiao Xuanyang!!!"

She roared in anger.

Xiao Li kicked her and sent her flying ten feet away.

He looked down at Chen Pingting who fell to the ground: "If you want to kill me, you can come anytime, but I will only spare you this time. Next time, I don't mind doing a good deed and sending you to see him."

"Clang."

The murderous dagger was kicked in front of her and scratched her hand as it spun.

It was simply a naked mockery of her incompetence.

Chen Pingting looked at her bleeding hand, then at the gate of the princess's mansion, her eyes filled with hatred, and she secretly swore in her heart: Xiao Xuanyang, you can be so arrogant, but I will make sure you die without a burial place!

Chen Niuhulu Pingting made up her mind and entered the palace with hatred in her heart. The mourning clothes she wore frightened the empress dowager so much that she almost died, but Chen Pingting's next words brought her back.

"Aunt, I want to marry my cousin."

She wanted to be a concubine, a noble concubine, and in the future a queen mother. She wanted to be the most noble woman in the world and keep Xiao Li under her feet forever.

Chen Pingting is ambitious and has set grand goals for herself.

It’s a pity that Xiao Li didn’t know, but even if he knew, he could only say one thing: you’re crazy.

-----

Xiao Li knew that the imperial examination would not succeed, so she naturally stopped interfering in it. The most important thing for her now was to find Lu Yanzhi and Liu Xueyin.

After killing them once, her hatred had disappeared, and she naturally would not chase after the two for revenge, but she just wanted to know whether they were dead or not.

Liu Xueyin is missing and now we don’t know where to find her. Lu Yanzhi has been buried. Uh... should we consider digging a grave?

She has never killed Prince Chen.

Prince Chen had never offended her before, so she had never put Prince Chen in the death book, but now Prince Chen is a fugitive, she can kill him in the name of the emperor. She wondered what would happen if she killed Prince Chen.

Eager to try...

Xiao Li does not have any omnipotent means, and cannot find Liu Xueyin and King Chen for the time being. After all, digging up their graves is the most practical option.

"Yang Jun, go check where Lu Yanzhi is buried?"

Yang Jun could answer without even checking: "The Lu family sent him back to his ancestral home in Dongling and buried him in the ancestral tomb."

Xiao Li: "Dongling...how long does it take to get there from here?"

Yang Jun: "Five days for a fast horse, half a month for a carriage."

Seeing Xiao Li still thinking seriously, Yang Jun didn't know what he was thinking, so he tried to persuade her: "Princess, Dongling is the ancestral home of the Lu family. It is the Lu family's world. Because of Lu Cang's death, they probably hate the royal family very much. Moreover, Lu Yanzhi was killed by the princess herself. If you go to pay your respects, I am afraid you will be harassed."

To say that they were making things difficult was an understatement; they should have directly said that the Lu family would kill her, the princess.

But Xiao Li is not afraid.

"Who said I was going to pay my respects? We're going to dig a grave, but we shouldn't do it in a big way. It's best to do it secretly..."

Yang Jun's mind almost didn't react: "Huh?"

What are you digging for? Did he hear wrongly?

But looking at Xiao Li's malicious expression, it seemed... maybe... maybe he heard it right...

"Princess... that's not the case..." Yang Jun touched his conscience: "Debts are settled when one dies. Mr. Lu is already dead. There's no need to dig up his grave and whip his corpse."

"Who said I was going to dig up graves and whip corpses?"

Xiao Li gave him a strange look: "Am I that kind of cruel and perverted person?"

She smiled and said, "I just felt a little regretful that I couldn't personally attend his funeral after being married for three years. So I dug him out to see him and say hello. There's nothing else to it."

Yang Jun couldn't believe his ears. Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

The expression was so complicated that it was hard to describe: So, isn't it perverted to dig up the dead and say hello?

Yang Jun walked out of the house, looking haggard and worn, as if he had been hit by frost.

Rong Qing came over just in time. He patted Rong Qing's shoulder with emotion and thanked the princess again for finding him a good brother to share the damage.

He couldn't handle this increasingly weird princess alone.

Rong Qing: “???”

Why is this person getting weirder and weirder? He's always patting him on the shoulder and looking at him with that weird look that makes people feel uneasy.

Although he didn't know the reason, Rong Qing still avoided him slightly and decided to stay away from him in the future.
