"Yunrong." Sheng Hongxiao smiled, and suddenly looked at Pei Jinxiao who was following behind him, with a hint of amusement in his eyes, "It seems that the Sheng Mansion has added another distinguished guest today."

Sheng Yunrong bit her lip lightly, her beautiful eyes moving between Sheng Hongxiao and Pei Jinxiao, with suspicion secretly arising in her heart.

The second brother Sheng Hongxiao has always been very smart, and Pei Jinxiao is the Prince of Jing, with a noble status. The fact that the two of them appeared together in Sheng Mansion today must be something big.

"Your Highness Prince Jing, it really honors the Sheng family to have you visit my humble abode." Sheng Yunrong leaned forward slightly and saluted towards Pei Jinxiao, with a hint of politeness in her tone.

Pei Jinxiao smiled slightly, looked at Sheng Yunrong kindly, and said, "Miss Sheng, there is no need to be polite. I came here today just to form a good relationship with the Sheng family."

Sheng Yunrong was shocked. Pei Jinxiao was right. His Royal Highness Prince Jing was of noble status. If he could marry into the Sheng family, it would undoubtedly be a great honor for the Sheng family. But she was worried that her second brother Sheng Hongxiao might have some conspiracy, so she decided to test it out.

"Second brother, what His Highness said is true, right?" Sheng Yunrong turned her head and looked at Sheng Hongxiao, with doubt in her eyes.

Sheng Hongxiao smiled faintly and said, "Of course it is true. Your Highness intends to marry into the Sheng family in order to stabilize our country. As for the specific matters, we still need to discuss them together."

Pei Jinxiao nodded slightly and said, "That's right. This time, in addition to marrying into the Sheng family, I also came here to ask for a favor."

Sheng Yunrong became more and more curious. His Royal Highness Prince Jing must have some plan, otherwise he would not have proposed the marriage so easily.

"Your Highness, please speak." Sheng Yunrong said calmly.

Pei Jinxiao looked at Sheng Yunrong, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and said: "This king wants to send a letter through Miss Sheng."

Sheng Yunrong was stunned, and thought to herself, "This letter must be very important, otherwise His Royal Highness Prince Jing would not take it so seriously."

Sheng Hongxiao also looked serious at this time. He looked at Pei Jinxiao and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. The Sheng family will definitely do their best."

Pei Jinxiao smiled slightly, took out a sealed letter from his sleeve, handed it to Sheng Yunrong, and said, "This letter is of great importance. You must hand it to General Zhao in person."

Sheng Yunrong took the letter and held it tightly in her hand, with a gleam of determination in her eyes: "Your Highness, rest assured, I will definitely complete the task."

Pei Jinxiao looked at Sheng Yunrong's determined eyes and nodded with satisfaction. He believed that Sheng Yunrong was capable of completing this task.

As night fell, the Sheng Mansion was brightly lit, and the banquet was filled with singing and dancing. Sheng Yunrong and Sheng Hongxiao sat at the table, chatting with Pei Jinxiao from time to time, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

However, at this moment, an assassin in black suddenly broke into the banquet hall and went straight towards Pei Jinxiao.

Sheng Yunrong's heart tightened. It was obvious that the assassin's target was not only Pei Jinxiao, but also the letter in her hand. She reacted quickly, pulling Sheng Hongxiao over and blocking Pei Jinxiao.

Seeing this, the assassin immediately changed his target and stabbed Sheng Yunrong. Sheng Hongxiao was quick-witted and blocked the assassin's attack, but the dagger in the assassin's hand still scratched Sheng Yunrong's arm.

"Rong'er!" Sheng Hongxiao looked at Sheng Yunrong nervously, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Sheng Yunrong gritted her teeth, endured the pain, and said to Sheng Hongxiao: "Second brother, protect His Highness, I... I'm fine."

Pei Jinxiao saw this and immediately ordered: "Quick, catch the assassin!"

The guards responded and surrounded the assassin. Sheng Yunrong took the opportunity to put the letter into Sheng Hongxiao's hand and whispered, "Second brother, the letter is for you."

Sheng Hongxiao held the letter tightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Don't worry, I will definitely complete the task."

Under the leadership of Sheng Hongxiao, the guards of Sheng Mansion successfully caught the assassin. Pei Jinxiao was very satisfied with the performance of Sheng Yunrong and Sheng Hongxiao, and he knew that he had made the right choice.

Sheng Yunrong said: "Second brother, we must find the murderer as soon as possible, otherwise the safety of the Sheng Mansion cannot be guaranteed."

Sheng Hongxiao nodded slightly and said, "Yes, we must find the mastermind behind this and bring him to justice."

At this moment, a guard hurried into the living room, holding a note in his hand, and said, "Miss, Second Young Master, someone left this note at the door of Sheng Mansion."

Sheng Yunrong took the note and unfolded it. It read: "Ms. Sheng, you are in trouble. Come to rescue me as soon as possible."

Sheng Yunrong was shocked, this was a trap set by the enemy. But she also knew that she couldn't just sit there and wait for death, she had to take the initiative to attack.

She looked at Sheng Hongxiao and said, "Second brother, we can't just sit and wait for the enemy to attack. We must take the initiative to attack."

Sheng Hongxiao nodded slightly and said, "Yes, let's act immediately."

Led by Sheng Yunrong and Sheng Hongxiao, the Sheng family began to look for the enemy's traces. After a search, they found an assassin dressed in black.

Sheng Yunrong's eyes flashed with determination, and she said, "It's him. We must catch him."

Led by Sheng Yunrong, the Sheng family surrounded the assassin. Sheng Hongxiao said, "Miss Sheng, let me interrogate him."

Sheng Yunrong nodded slightly and said, "Second brother, be careful."

Sheng Hongxiao walked up to the assassin and said coldly, "Who are you? Why did you attack the Sheng Mansion?"

The assassin looked at Sheng Hongxiao, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and said: "I... I was entrusted by someone to come and attack the Sheng Mansion."

Sheng Hongxiao sneered and said, "Entrusted by someone? Then who is the mastermind behind you?"

The assassin gritted his teeth and refused to answer. Sheng Hongxiao's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he said, "If you don't tell me, I will make you live a life worse than death."

Upon hearing this, the assassin trembled and finally said, "My...my mastermind is...is..."

However, at this moment, the assassin suddenly spit out blood, fell to the ground, and died.

Sheng Yunrong was shocked. It was obvious that the assassin was poisoned. She looked at Sheng Hongxiao and said, "Brother, we must find the mastermind as soon as possible, otherwise the safety of the Sheng Mansion will be in jeopardy."

Sheng Hongxiao nodded slightly and said, "Yes, let's act immediately."

…

Sheng Hongxiao helplessly tapped her nose and smiled, "Silly girl. Have you forgotten what we do?"

Sheng Yunrong frowned slightly, a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes, then she seemed to remember something, her eyes lit up, and a mischievous smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Oh, second brother, how could I forget!" She gently patted her forehead, pretending to be suddenly enlightened, "Our Sheng Mansion is a well-known 'family of supernatural detectives' in the martial arts world! We specialize in catching those scums who have committed many evil deeds."

Sheng Hongxiao couldn't help laughing when he saw his sister's naughty look, with a doting light flashing in his eyes: "Yes, silly girl, the mission of our Sheng Mansion is to uphold justice in the martial arts world and punish evil and promote good. However, you always like to do some small tricks, don't get into trouble again this time."

Sheng Yunrong stuck out her tongue, and her smile became even brighter: "Don't worry, second brother, I will behave properly this time and follow the procedures."
