That day, the maid Zi Fu went to the Zhongshu Mansion and brought me a secret letter when she came back.
My father, who was the Minister of the Central Secretariat, sent three assassins to Dawa Village. He told me in a secret letter that the people he sent this time were not only skilled in martial arts, but also smart.
This time, Qin Nian from Dawa Village will definitely be eliminated.
Soon after this, the battle at the border became intense, and Mo Xuan led his army to Yuanmen Pass.
After he left, I felt a little relieved and stayed in the palace every day, waiting for news from the killer.
Many days passed, and finally, one of the three killers sent by my father came back.
The person who came back said that he stayed in the inn that day, and his two companions went to Dawa Village to look for Qin Nian.
Because when they went there, Qin Nian no longer lived in Dawa Village. She took her grandmother and hid somewhere unknown.
If you want to find her, you can only go to Dawa Village to look for clues.
But the two people who were looking for clues did not return to the inn. He waited for several days, but they did not come back.
During this period, he went to Dawa Village to look for them. Some villagers said they had seen them, but they didn't know where they went afterwards.
The killer judged that his two companions were in great danger.
My father also judged that they were in great danger.
After receiving the news, I could no longer sit still, so I went back to the Zhongshu Mansion to discuss with my father what to do next.
Continue to send killers?
Why send assassins if they can't find Qin Nian? I hope Qin Nian has hidden himself in the sky and will never return to Dawa Village.
I heard that she is seventeen years old. If she dares to provoke Mo Xuan again, I will make her life stop at the age of seventeen.
Not long after this, my father went to court and heard that Qin Nian and a young man named Su Bi were at the border.
No wonder she couldn’t be found. It turned out that Mo Xuan took her to the border. Why did he do that?
He was worried about my father, and even more worried about me. Jealousy burned my eyes red, and I swore that I must kill Qin Nian.
It's not the kind of death by one blow, but the kind of slow slicing. Otherwise it's not enough to relieve the hatred in my heart.
Soon, our people brought news that Qin Nian had returned to Dawa Village. Not long after, King Xuan returned to the court.
Our people said that King Xuan stayed in Yi County.
Yi County is very close to Dawa Village. I understand that my husband must have stopped there for Qin Nian.
I was extremely panicked. He had made great contributions in quelling the war, and the emperor would definitely reward him in every possible way.
I will definitely ask him what reward he wants.
Once Mo Xuan took the opportunity to propose that he wanted the village girl Qin Nian to be his concubine, the emperor would be very happy and would definitely agree.
No, if Qin Nian is not eliminated, one day, she will replace me and become the princess of Xuanwang Mansion.
One day, Mo Xuanzhen became the emperor and she was the queen.
I was anxious, my eyes were red, burned by the fire of hatred. I went back to the Zhongshu Ling Mansion again and discussed countermeasures with my father.
Apart from assassination, there is really no other way.
This time, my father spent a lot of money to hire a master. The master debuted at the age of seventeen and is now seventeen years old.
In the past thirty years, he has never met an opponent. In order to get rid of Qin Nian, his father really risked his life. He told the killer that if the task was successful, the reward would be ten thousand taels of gold.
On the day when King Xuan entered the capital, the master left the city. In the moment when they crossed each other, I don't know if King Xuan saw him.
As the princess, I have made all preparations to welcome her back to the palace.
Mo Xuan came back with his amazing military achievements, and the emperor's rewards flowed into Prince Xuan's palace like water.
The royal family and important officials of the court also rushed into the palace to offer their congratulations.
Mo Xuan was in high spirits. He hosted a banquet to entertain his guests. As the glasses clinked, I could see his loneliness from his eyes and brows.
I am by his side, and his loneliness is not because of me.
I pursed my lips and swore once again that I would get rid of Qin Nian.
I could no longer feel at peace as before. My heart was filled with anxiety. I looked forward to the return of that expert to the capital every day, hoping to hear the news that he would take Qin Nian to the mountains and torture him to death.
One morning a month later, the maid Zi Fu came running in. She was so hurried that she didn't even care about the rules.
"Princess, news came from the palace that the Minister of the Central Secretariat was strangled to death in his study last night.
The guards at the door didn't hear any sound."
The news was so sudden that I fainted from fright. After waking up, I hurriedly took my maid back to the Zhongshu Ling Mansion.
The house was in chaos.
The mother cried her heart out, and the eldest and second brothers were so scared that they looked like two fools.
I vaguely felt that my father’s death must be related to him sending people to kill Qin Nian, and to me.
My heart was as anxious as rain hitting banana leaves. I didn't eat or sleep, couldn't think, and just sat there blankly.
Zi Fu kept urging me to drink some water, and I finally got annoyed:
My father was my most capable helper. He died in such a strange way. How could I still have the heart to drink water?
Get out of here. I want to be alone. No one is allowed to come in without my permission.
Zi Fu was so frightened that her face turned pale. She bowed and went out, not daring to come back.
Zi Fu didn't dare to come in, but someone else dared to come in.
Just after midnight, my eyes blurred and Qin Nian appeared in the room.
I was shocked, pointed at her, and asked in a trembling voice, "How did you get in?"
Qin Nian sneered and said, “The master my father hired with a huge sum of money was chopped down by her fiancé.”
Before killing the man, they interrogated the master and he confessed everything.
Qin Nian said that only if my father and I died could she live a peaceful life.
She also has a space. She has tried it and found that her space has a teleportation function. It means that no matter where she wants to go, she can get there instantly.
She used the teleportation function of space to come and kill us. She strangled my father to death.
Now, all she had to do was strangle me.
I hurriedly stopped her: "Wait a minute. You said just now that you have a fiancé?"
Qin Nian said coldly: She has a fiancé. Her fiancé helped my prince kill the enemy's martial god.
She scolded me, saying that I lived a life of luxury but only knew how to be jealous and kill people.
We have repeatedly sent people to kill them, and she will no longer spare us.
I hurriedly stopped her: "Listen to me, if you marry your fiancé now, I won't cause you any trouble.
In fact, if I had known earlier that you had a fiancé, my father and I would not have troubled you."
"That's easy to say, are you looking for trouble? You are sending people to kill me and take our lives!"
......
The next morning, Zi Fu plucked up the courage to come to Princess Xuan's door. No one answered, not a single answer.
Zi Fu was scared and asked the princess's eldest and second brothers to come over.
After they broke down the door, they found Princess Ji Haitang dead. Just like their father, the Minister of the Central Secretariat Ji Lin, she was strangled to death with a rope.
Mo Xuan came in and looked at Ji Haitang's body. After looking at it for a while, he turned around and walked out.
Not long after, Ji Lin and Ji Haitang's funeral was completed.
Prince Xuan's Mansion was not affected, and neither was Mo Xuan.
Everything remains the same.
