Not long after Xie Ling finished speaking, the streets were still quiet.
Xie Ling just stood there waiting.
After a while, a man suddenly walked out from the quiet street.
Xie Ling raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him.
He was a thin man, smaller than a normal man. He wore a black nightgown and a headscarf, leaving only a pair of slender eyes exposed.
Xie Ling looked down at herself again.
Well.
She finally knew why.
The man's figure was indeed very similar to hers.
Both of them were wearing black clothes and had their hair tied in high ponytails with wooden hairpins.
It’s no wonder those guards admitted their mistakes.
Xie Ling had a bad impression of the Duke's Mansion. She just stood at the door for a while that day, and the servant drove her away like a dog. This shows that the quality of the entire Duke's Mansion is not high.
Therefore, for the time being, Xie Ling had no ill will towards the man who trespassed into the Duke's Mansion.
Before Xie Ling could say anything, the man spoke first.
"I'm going to die."
Xie Ling raised an eyebrow, "What does it have to do with me?"
The man coughed up blood and his eyes turned red.
"I have a secret that can overturn the entire Wei Zhao situation."
Xie Ling spread her hands, "I'm not interested. I called you out just because I don't want to take the blame for you. You can handle the rest by yourself."
The man gritted his teeth and suddenly knelt down in front of Xie Ling. "Master, I just want you to help me pass this secret to someone! Just pass the message!"
"You've already said that this secret can overturn the entire Wei Zhao situation, why should I step into this muddy water?
I just came to Wei Zhao to look for someone. I am not interested in Wei Zhao. By the way, you can deal with these bodies yourself."
After Xie Ling finished speaking, she turned around.
She was afraid that if she stayed too long, this man would drag her down with him.
The man was anxious and blurted out, "I asked you to help me pass the message to King Yong! King Yong is the most loyal person in Wei Zhao, and he will never let you fall into danger."
Xie Ling did not stop.
The man said loudly: "This is the residence of Prince Yong. You just need to help me deliver this letter to him tonight!"
Xie Ling stopped, turned back, and pointed at the mansion without a plaque in front of her, "You said this is the mansion of Prince Yong?"
The man nodded, his eyes serious.
"Once this word gets out, King Yong will definitely be very grateful to you and will give you countless wealth."
Xie Ling took a deep breath. It turned out that the uncle was Prince Yong!
She should have thought of it earlier.
The first time we met was at the gate of the palace.
Moreover, he had superb martial arts skills, disabled legs, and a gentle personality, which really fits the description of King Yong in the rumors.
Xie Ling crossed her arms over her chest and looked the man up and down, "What news do you want me to convey?"
The man looked at Xie Ling deeply and took out two letters from his arms.
"The upper one is for you, and the lower one is for Prince Yong."
After the man finished speaking, he pulled out the long sword from the guard's waist and quickly ended his own life.
Xie Ling stretched out her hand to stop him, but it was too late. The man was determined to die.
She was stunned for a moment, then squatted down to check the man's still warm body.
He had been poisoned, and the poison had penetrated deep into his lungs, but he could still live for a few hours.
He died so decisively, probably to avoid being a burden to himself.
Xie Ling's eyes were somewhat complicated.
Isn’t he afraid that he might run away with the letter, or not give it to King Yong at all?
With a sigh, Xie Ling took out the corpse-dissolving water from the space and poured it on the corpses.
This street is full of royal relatives, and we don’t know if the Duke’s Mansion will send people out to arrest people again, so we have to deal with them quickly.
After finishing everything, Xie Ling took out a women's cloak from the space and put it on. She then let her long hair down and tied it into a simple bun. She also wiped off all the makeup on her face, revealing her originally beautiful face that was naturally undecorated.
Now she is tall and graceful, with an angelic appearance, a delicate and gentle woman. She is not afraid even if she meets someone from the Duke's Mansion.
After walking a few steps, Xie Ling ran into a group of guards.
They are dressed the same as the group of people she killed before, so they should be from the Duke's Mansion.
The guards had gloomy faces and walked hurriedly, without even looking at her as they walked straight forward.
Xie Ling wrapped her cloak tightly around her and returned to the inn where she had stayed before.
The shopkeeper was originally drowsy, when he suddenly heard a female voice as clear and cold as mountain spring water.
"Boss, are there any rooms available?"
The shopkeeper opened his eyes and was dazzled by what he saw. Suddenly, he felt that the whole inn became bright.
Wei Zhao: Most of the women in Shengjing are petite and delicate, but the woman in front of him is tall, slender and graceful.
Her unmade-up face was fair and bright, with features as picturesque as white pear blossoms blooming in spring, so delicate and elegant.
The shopkeeper had been in Shengjing for decades, and had never seen such a fresh and pleasant beauty, with a face full of wrinkles from smiling, "Miss, which room do you want to stay in? Our shop has Tianzi, Dizi, and Renzi rooms, and we also provide hot water and a complete breakfast."
Xie Ling cursed inwardly.
That's not what she said when she came to stay yesterday.
She asked for hot water several times but the wait was overwhelming. She didn't even know that this inn even provided breakfast service!
Seeing her hesitate, the shopkeeper was afraid that she didn't want to stay, so he added anxiously, "Miss, our shop is having a promotion today. If you stay, you can get half the price off."
Xie Ling curled her lips, "Come to the Tianzi room."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Okay, would you like some hot water, young lady?"
Xie Ling turned and went upstairs, "Go ahead."
After taking a shower, Xie Ling lay on the bed and opened the envelope the man gave her.
The first thing that caught my eye was a crumpled silver note worth three thousand taels.
