"...You mean that Shen Liuliu actually... actually has such abilities? Then being bitten, and me... were all Shen Liuliu's doing?"

Princess Qu Ling sneered.

She suppressed her fear and forced herself to calm down.

She's just a lowly country bumpkin; how could she compare to a princess?

"It must be! If it weren't for that bastard's meddling, how could things have happened so coincidentally? Let's not even talk about the princess's journey back from Lotus Village, just look at what happened just now..."

The princess's status is so noble, how could there possibly be a poisonous snake in her house? It's not that I'm trying to excuse the servants, but how dare they mistreat the princess?

Therefore, the appearance of poisonous snakes in the princess's room is too strange; it must have been done by that bastard!

Shen Pengfei cleverly followed Princess Qu Ling's words and changed his address to call Shen Liuliu a bastard.

He now hates Shen Liuliu to the core.

If it weren't for Shen Liuliu, how could I have ended up in such a state?

The doctor told him that his manhood... was ruined!

He became a eunuch!

This is absolutely a huge joke!

Once outsiders find out that he has become a eunuch, can he still hold an official position?

That can't be right.

How could His Majesty possibly allow a eunuch to become an official? Wouldn't that make the court a laughingstock?

so!

It was Shen Liuliu who ruined his career!

That bastard went to such extremes! Well, don't blame him then!

"Princess, I was too soft-hearted before and didn't kill her directly! That's why we've suffered this disaster! If you catch that bastard, you must kill her without hesitation, otherwise the consequences will be dire!"

Shen Pengfei kowtowed repeatedly.

As long as I can kill Shen Liuliu, I'd be willing to kowtow to him or even make him eat shit!

"That's right. If you had killed Shen Liuliu in prison, none of this would have happened."

Princess Qu Ling's gaze towards Shen Pengfei gradually turned cold.

If Shen Pengfei had killed Shen Liuliu that day, how could he be in his current predicament and suffering?

So all of this...

It's all because of Shen Pengfei.

Shen Liuliu certainly deserved to die, but Shen Pengfei wasn't a good person either!

At this moment, Shen Pengfei not only failed to notice, but also thought that the princess was so angry because of Shen Liuliu.

I was secretly delighted!

Kill them all!

It would be better to kill them all!

"Princess, actually..."

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered.

"quack!"

Princess Qu Ling frowned.

The sparrows outside seem to be making a lot of noise today.

"Princess, you..."

"You're right. If you had killed Shen Liuliu that day, none of this would have happened. So... you deserve to die!"

Princess Qu Ling's face was contorted with rage, but as she watched the life force in Shen Pengfei's eyes gradually fade away, she felt incredibly pleased!

This is what happens when you stand in her way!

If Shen Pengfei hadn't been ruthless enough, how could I have ended up in such a sorry state?

Therefore, Shen Pengfei deserves to die!

This terrified Little Blackie outside, who flapped his wings and tried his best to fly away.

That's terrifying.

This woman is terrifying.

Meanwhile, Chu Yaya, who had secretly run away, had several large steamed buns stuffed in her arms, and was eating one herself.

However, the physical pain made it very difficult for her to walk.

We definitely can't stay in Qingyang Town, otherwise we'll surely be caught by the princess's men.

Should we go directly to the city government?

No, the princess will definitely send people to guard the road to the city government.

So how can she get to the city's treasury?

Let's go to other towns first.

Chu Yaya gritted her teeth and secretly left Qingyang Town. Then she climbed over two mountains, wanting to reach Hutou Town, which was far away from Qingyang Town.

It takes a long time to walk on the road, but if you cross the mountain, it only takes a little over an hour to get there.

Of course, this is on the premise that you must be an expert who is familiar with mountain roads.

This is Chu Yaya's forte.

She ate another steamed bun, then lay down by the river to break the ice, drank a couple of sips of water, and continued on her way.

In the past, crossing two mountains would only take her half an hour, but now it took her an hour and a half to climb them, leaving her breathless!

At the foot of the mountain, there stands a solitary house.

In the courtyard, there seemed to be a man sitting there, shirtless despite the cold weather, swinging a hammer and smashing something.

Chu Yaya narrowed her eyes, instinctively sensing that this man was dangerous, so she immediately gritted her teeth and tried to walk around him.

Unfortunately, fate had other plans. Her bleeding wound caused her to lose too much blood, and she collapsed to the ground with a thud after walking only a short distance, completely losing consciousness.

The man in the yard seemed not to hear, and continued hammering away at the blacksmith.

"when!"

"when!"

"when!"

Each sound felt like it was about to pierce my eardrums.

Chu Yaya lay on the cold ground, her body gradually stiffening...

——

“Princess, we really can’t force the magistrate to gather all the men in the town to hunt down the wild beasts now. If we force the magistrate to his death… then there might be trouble.”

The wet nurse couldn't help but come out and offer advice.

For Princess Qu Ling, her wet nurse was not just a servant, but also a family member.

In addition, the wet nurse was always very sensible and understanding, so Princess Qu Ling gave the wet nurse more face.

Since arriving in Qingyang Town, the wet nurse had never said anything to persuade her. Today was the first time, so the princess listened to her advice.

"He was just injured, how could he die?"

Princess Qu Ling said stiffly, but her expression didn't seem so insistent.

Although she blamed everything on Shen Liuliu and firmly believed that Shen Liuliu was a monster.

But deep down she was also afraid.

She was worried that another venomous snake might suddenly appear and bite her to death!

That's why she listened when the wet nurse persuaded her.

"Princess, think about it, how could it be such a coincidence? You asked the magistrate to gather all the men in the town to hunt down the ferocious beast, and he just happened to be injured? And to the point of being unconscious?"

"Granny, do you mean that the little county magistrate dares to lie to me?" The princess's voice suddenly rose.

She is a princess.

How dare a mere county magistrate deceive her?

“Princess, this is just my guess. I think the magistrate is probably worried that many people will die if they go to hunt down the wild beasts, and he will be held responsible.”

"hehe……"

The wet nurse observed Princess Qu Ling's expression and said cautiously, "Actually, the reason why the princess wanted to eliminate the beasts was because she felt sorry for the local people and was worried that the beasts would hurt them."

But this old servant worries that if those with ulterior motives spread the word, it will become clear that the princess disregarded the lives of the local people and only sought to vent her anger. Wouldn't that be far too shameful?

That's a very pleasant thing to hear.

He both flattered and fawned over the princess, and also got to the point.

So Princess Qu Ling naturally followed up with, "Then what do you suggest we do, Granny?"

His tone had softened unconsciously.

The wet nurse smiled slightly: "Didn't the princess say that Shen Liuliu is a monster, a reincarnation of an animal? If he could hurt the princess and kill her cousin Shen Pengfei, then naturally he can hurt others too..."
