The woman had fair skin and was beautiful, but her body was covered with scars. She didn't respond when she was called out, and it seemed that she had fainted.
The hunter didn't know how she got this way, but he suddenly felt very sympathetic, so he helped her onto his back and carried her home for treatment.
At the same time, a man quietly sneaked into the Third Prince's residence in the capital.
Cui Mixue was strolling in the back garden, playing with the flowers she had just picked. She was wondering how the task she had asked Leng Yan to do was going, when she felt a gust of cold wind blowing beside her. When she came to her senses, a man in a black robe appeared out of nowhere in front of her.
"I have already done what you asked me to do." The man said in a cold voice and a serious expression.
Cui Mixue finally came back to her senses and looked at Leng Yan with approval: "You mean Leng San is dead? That's great. No one found out, right?"
"You can rest assured about this. With my skills, it is not a problem for me to enter the prince's private prison and kill someone. I will never leave any handle for anyone." The man still lowered his head, his voice calm and composed.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first." Leng Yan clasped his hands together and bowed to Cui Mixue.
"I understand. Thank you so much this time." Cui Mixue nodded slightly at him, indicating that he could leave.
A gust of cold wind passed by, and the person in front of him disappeared, as if the figure just now was just an illusion.
Cui Mixue lowered her eyes, her heart filled with joy.
This is much easier to deal with. A villain like Leng San who is afraid of death and forgets his principles when he sees profit will probably give me away if I torture him casually. Then I will have no way to defend myself.
So only if he died would he be the safest. After all, the dead are the best at keeping secrets.
Thinking of this, Cui Mixue curled her lips. This could be considered as solving a problem, and the big stone that had been hanging in her heart had finally fallen to the ground.
However, Cui Mixue changed her mind and realized that although she had used Leng San to test Su Mengyan, apart from the slight panic she showed at the beginning, she did not show any other suspicious behavior that day.
Later, she remained calm and even took the opportunity to bite back at Leng San. These actions showed her to be very clever.
If I had experienced such a horrific thing in my past life, I would definitely be scared out of my wits if I saw this person and took out those horrific torture instruments in this life. After all, we are just weak women, how could we have such courage?
Cui Mixue asked herself, she felt that she would never be able to be as calm as Su Mengyan, or even think as carefully.
Could it be that she was really just a little scared of Leng San because she had met him before? This shouldn't be the case.
If Su Mengyan was not a reborn person like her, then why could she see through her plan and help Situ Yao fight wits and courage with her, countering her moves step by step and seizing the initiative?
If someone said that all this was due to Su Mengyan's cleverness, Cui Mixue would not believe it at all.
This kind of insight that seems to see through everything and is above them all is something that ordinary people cannot have.
So what is Su Mengyan's identity? Why can't I find out her background even after using all my connections?
The more Cui Mixue thought about it, the more confused she felt that things were, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't make sense of it.
It was as if, because of Su Mengyan's presence, everything had more or less deviated from her memories of her past life. She was immediately very upset and didn't want to care.
Anyway, there is no way to guess the result, so I might as well go and try it myself.
While Su Mengyan hasn't realized yet that all this was done by me, I should strike while the iron is hot. Maybe I can get the answer I want.

Cui Mixue thought for a moment and came up with a solution. This plan was so perfect that even she couldn't help but admire herself.
Thinking of this, Cui Mixue felt refreshed, her red lips curled slightly, and she slowly walked in one direction.
The sky outside was clear, but Situ Zhao had no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery. He had been confined for many days.
Situ Yao's political achievements were flourishing outside, but he was trapped in this mansion all day long and was gritting his teeth.
Feeling sullen, the servants brought some snacks to Situ Zhao. He took a sip of tea and got burned. In a rage, he swept the dishes on the table to the ground.
"You useless thing, you want to murder me with such hot water?" Situ Zhao was furious. The maid next to him knelt on the ground trembling, not daring to say a word.
Situ Zhao kicked the maid, and she fell to the side, and no one dared to help her.
After venting his anger, Situ Zhao went to find his concubine for some fun. The concubine poured a glass of wine and fed it to Situ Zhao. She asked with her red lips, "Your Highness has been at the mansion these past few days. I heard that the Crown Prince has solved the case of the missing girl. Isn't Your Highness worried?"
Situ Zhao had just suppressed the anger in his chest when he heard the concubine's reckless words. He looked at the concubine with vicious eyes. The concubine dared not say anything more and knelt down in obedience. The maid next to her turned a blind eye.
The maid was shaking with fear. Situ Zhao waved his hand and someone came up and dragged the maid away. Soon a scream was heard and the dancer who was serving Situ Zhao trembled with fear.
"Hey, little darling, are you afraid of me?" Situ Zhao lifted the dancer's face.
The dancer suppressed her fear and smiled: "Your Highness is mighty and majestic, and I have great respect for you."
The two were flirting when the maid whispered to Situ Zhao that Cui Mixue had arrived. Situ Zhao told the dancer to wait for him in the room in the evening, and then he hurried to see Cui Mixue.
At this time, Cui Mixue was sipping a cup of tea slowly in the main hall. As soon as Situ Zhao came in, Cui Mixue smelled the scent of powder on Situ Zhao.
"The Second Prince exudes a strange fragrance today." Cui Mixue said with a sneer.
"They are just a few concubines, Mixue don't have to worry about them." Situ Zhao smiled frivolously and sat next to Cui Mixue.
The two people were very close to each other, and Situ Zhao had already touched Cui Mixue's hand and smelled Cui Mixue's body fragrance.
The servants lowered their heads silently, pretending not to see anything.
"Why did you come to see me today?"
"The prince has been making waves these days with his work solving the missing girl case. I was afraid you might be reckless, so I came to see you." Cui Mixue feigned affection towards Situ Zhao. Inwardly, she despised Situ Zhao. "You fool! If I hadn't come, you wouldn't have known what stupid things you would have done."
Situ Zhao didn't say anything. He could feel Cui Mixue's disdain for him, but Cui Mixue was still useful to him, so he couldn't break up with her now.
