Several figures quickly approached the man in black. The man obviously didn't expect that his sneak attack would be discovered, and he reacted so quickly. He flipped in the air, and his black robe drew a long arc in the air. Then he rolled on the ground, and the sharp hook in his hand suddenly hooked the arm of a secret guard, tearing off a piece of flesh, and then he raised his foot and rushed into the dark alley.

"Chase!"

Feng Ling's face was gloomy and he snorted.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, several figures rushed into the dark alley.

Qin Wan was about to follow him, because that man was the murderer of his second brother, but he stopped in his tracks, thinking of Qing Zhan who was still in the carriage and Pingyang who was stunned by the shock, and he froze in his tracks.

"Be careful, there's a trap!"

Qing Yue urgently shouted to the shadow guards who were chasing into the deep alley. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw several shadow guards dragging their companions out one after another. The two people being dragged had blue and purple faces and were twitching all over.

Qing Yue quickly stepped forward and immediately squatted down to check, "Poisoned."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out the pills on his body and fed them to the two secret guards on the spot. Then he took out the silver needles and inserted a few needles into the two shadow guards. There was no pause during the whole process. Soon, the two shadow guards stopped twitching.

"I'll write a prescription and boil the medicine for them to drink. Hurry!"

"Thank you, Princess!"

The entire palace was in motion.

This was the first time Qing Yue demonstrated her medical skills in front of the servants, shocking everyone.

Including Pingyang, she was completely stunned and forgot to react for a long time, but she knew that if Qin Wan had not saved her just now, she would have been finished.

"It's him, it's him, Sixth Brother, Qin Wan, the man just now. He was the one who kidnapped Qing Er last night!"

Pingyang came back to his senses and said in a trembling voice.

"Come in first!"

Qingyue's face was extremely tense. If you looked closely, you could see that she was gritting her teeth.

"Feng Ling, have someone put Qing Zhan away first and take good care of him. Don't let anything go wrong, and don't let anyone get close to him."

Qing Yue looked at Qing Zhan in the carriage, then looked at Feng Ling and said.

"good."

With a bang, the door of Prince Yu's mansion closed, but the atmosphere inside was tense. Pingyang didn't dare to say a word at this time and followed Qingyue and Fengling closely.

They hurried to Beiyuan to see the injured Xie Jinghuan.

As soon as the door opened, he saw Xie Jinghuan leaning there with his upper body naked. Old Wang was packing his medicine box. When he saw Feng Ling come in, he immediately saluted.

"How about it?"

"Your Highness, Master Xie only suffered minor injuries. I have already bandaged the wound, so he should be fine."

Mr. Wang said hurriedly.

"I'm fine."

At this time, Xie Jinghuan also stood up. Perhaps because of the pain on his wound, he hissed.

Qing Yue raised her eyes and looked at the eldest son of the Xie family. She had met him briefly a few times before, and then he never showed up again. When she saw him suddenly, she felt that Xie Jinghuan had changed a lot. He seemed to have lost a lot of weight, probably because of the injury. His face was a little pale, and there was some blue stubble on his chin.

"Miss Qin."

"Princess Pingyang."

Xie Jinghuan nodded in the direction of Qingyue again, and their eyes met in the air. They were not actually very familiar with each other, but he had witnessed how Feng Ling disliked Qin Wan, and at the beginning he also called her Miss Qin, so he did not think it was inappropriate. However, when Feng Ling heard this name, her lips immediately pursed.

Pingyang was still preoccupied and responded absentmindedly.

"Master Xie, are you feeling unwell in any other way?"

Qingyue spoke, she was afraid that he was poisoned.

Xie Jinghuan shook his head. "Thank you Miss Qin for your help. I just suffered some minor injuries. There's nothing serious."

The more Feng Ling heard the name "Miss Qin," the more depressed she felt. Xie Jinghuan's address reminded her of how he had treated Qin Wan before. She immediately asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

Xie Jinghuan's gentle expression faltered at this question, and he said seriously, "Over the past two months, I've traveled almost all over the Three Kingdoms, looking for all the herbs on the prescription. I rushed back to the capital to see you as soon as I could, intending to send them over to save you from any further delays. However, I didn't expect to run into someone stealthily rummaging through the palace's backyard."

Feng Ling's pupils shrank, and Qing Yue's expression became stern.

"I immediately engaged in a fight with him, which alerted the guards at your mansion. He was a highly skilled martial artist with strange moves and possessed a strange poison. Several guards were killed but were unable to capture him. In the end, he escaped and I was slightly injured."

Xie Jinghuan said concisely.

Feng Ling's expression darkened slightly as he exchanged glances with Qin Wan.

"We still don't know the other party's identity."

Xie Jinghuan said.

He was also shocked. Prince Yu's mansion was heavily guarded. This man was able to break in quietly, which showed that he had some skills. But what was he doing in the mansion?

"It's him. He's the one who captured Qing Er last night and bit me with a poisonous snake. Even though he's wearing a mask today, I could still recognize him!"

Pingyang's face turned pale and he said through gritted teeth.

No one paid any attention to her.

Qingyue and Fengling basically guessed it.

At this time, Qing Yue said, "Pingyang, you have loved painting since you were young, and your portraits are very skillful. Now go and draw the face of the man in black robe."

"good."

Pingyang nodded immediately.

Then he paused, looking at Qingyue with puzzled eyes, "How do you know that I've loved painting since I was a child? I like painting portraits the most?"

Qin Wan grew up in the countryside and had only been back in Kyoto for a short time. They didn't have any interactions at all, so how could she act like she knew her so well?

Qing Yue pursed her lips slightly, feeling bitter in her heart, but her face remained expressionless, as if from the moment she saw her second brother's broken body, her face had lost all expression of joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness. She only said, "I heard your sixth brother say that once."

"I see."

Pingyang's doubts were finally dispelled.

Feng Ling's eyes moved, but she did not expose Qing Yue's words. She just called someone over and brought Pingyang paper, ink, brush and inkstone, asking her to draw the true appearance of the man in black.

"What happened to you?"

Xie Jinghuan had just returned to Beijing and entered Prince Yu's Mansion. He had not even gone back to the Xie family when he encountered the incident of the black-robed man sneaking into the mansion, so he had no idea what was going on outside.

Qing Yue spoke slowly, "After he kidnapped Qing Er last night, he must have tortured him quite a bit, and during this process, Pingyang was in a coma..."

Qing Yue replayed what happened last night, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she felt a pain in her heart.

She could guess that the man in black was definitely trying to force her to tell him something about her, asking her second brother who Qingyue was and where she was. She didn't need to think, she knew her second brother wouldn't tell her, so he had tortured him. The wounds on his body were enough to tell.

"After Pingyang woke up, we took her to look for Qing Zhan's whereabouts. We must have missed him by chance, so he sneaked into the mansion without making any noise."
