She removed the cloth ball from her mouth and untied the ropes on her feet.

However, her feet were tied too tightly and she couldn't untie them even after trying for a long time.

She got up in a rage, skipped to the door, and pounded on the locked door.

"Someone! Let me out!"

"How dare you! Do you know who I am? You even dare to arrest me. You must be tired of living!"

"Let me go now!"

"Did you hear that?"

Princess Hui'an's voice became hoarse and her palms were sore from clapping.

However, no one came.

As night fell, darkness swallowed the entire room. She sat down in the corner, feeling fearful and aggrieved.

Tears fell down with a click.

"Father...Huian is so scared...please come and save Huian..."

"Mother... Third Brother... Where are you?"

"Wow...Huian wants to go home..."

She couldn't stop crying.

She regretted it.

If she had known she would be kidnapped, she would never have sneaked out of the palace...

She didn't know how long she cried, but she was completely exhausted and fell into a deep sleep with her knees hugged.

Half asleep and half awake, she heard the sound of a lock being unlocked.

She startled and looked up.

Crunch——

The door was pushed open.

The cold moonlight shone in.

Then, a masked man in black walked in holding a pile of clothes.

He glanced at Princess Hui'an coldly.

Princess Hui'an stood up in fear and looked at him warily: "Who are you?"

The man in black threw the clothes in his hand to Princess Hui'an's feet and said, "Put them on."

Princess Hui'an looked at the clothes on the ground, frowned, and then looked up at him: "Where did you take Xiao Zhuozi and Taohong? I warn you! Don't hurt them!"

The man in black sneered: "It's hard for a clay Buddha to save himself when crossing the river. You should worry about yourself!"

Princess Hui'an asked coldly, "Who are you? Why did you arrest me? If you let me go, I can give you a lot of benefits! Money or an official position, as long as you ask!"

"snort."

The man in black snorted disdainfully: "You can't change it yourself, so I have to find someone to change it for you. Let me make it clear first, there are no eunuchs or women here."

"You——" Princess Hui'an crossed her arms and stared at him coldly, "Get out of here!"

The man in black turned and left the room.

Princess Hui'an humiliatingly changed the man's clothes on the ground.

"Come out when you're ready." The man in black said calmly.

Princess Hui'an bit her lip and walked out slowly.

Princess Hui'an was born pretty, and even when she was dressed as a man, she was still incredibly beautiful.

The man in black seemed dissatisfied. He reached out and plucked the hairpin on her head, and her three thousand strands of black hair fell down like an ink-black waterfall.

Princess Hui'an was horrified: "What are you doing?"

The man in black casually threw her a wooden hairpin and said, "Put your hair up."

"I can't!" said Princess Hui'an.

She was a princess, she had everything she needed, and she had never combed her own hair.

The man in black said, "Then I'll have to shave it for you."

“Stop it!”

Princess Hui'an hurriedly hugged her head, glared at him angrily, grabbed the hairpin in disgust, and struggled for a long time to tie her hair into a loose bun.

The man in black took out a dagger again, scraped some wall dust from the wall with the scabbard and smeared it on her face.

Princess Hui'an slapped his dagger away and said, "You dare to touch me? You are tired of living!"

He whistled and a carriage drove up.

The men in black took Princess Hui'an onto the carriage.

He sat next to Princess Hui'an, with the dagger against her waist and abdomen: "You'd better not scream, or I will kill you with one blow."

Princess Hui'an turned her face away.

The carriage went on along the way, making many twists and turns, and encountered several soldiers who were searching. The driver thought that the person inside was a patient with smallpox, and he even lifted the curtain for the soldiers to see.

The man in black lifted up his sleeves, revealing the "smallpox" on his arm.

The officers and soldiers were so frightened that they quickly let the carriage go.

On the other side, Su Xiaoxiao was covered by a big net with a knockout drug in the net bag. She struggled a few times and fell on the horse's back, unconscious.

Two men in black came over.

"Are you dizzy?" one of them asked?

Another person said: "With so many knockout drugs, a cow would be knocked out, let alone a woman."

"She is not an ordinary woman. She is Qin Canglan's granddaughter."

"So what? She grew up in the countryside and doesn't know any martial arts. To put it bluntly, she's just a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken. Okay, stop talking nonsense and take her away quickly."

The two men lifted Su Xiaoxiao onto the carriage.

"Uh...it's quite heavy!"

The carriage drove towards a house in the suburbs.

When they were almost there, a muffled sound was heard from the carriage.

The man in black who was driving the carriage said, "Did you fall asleep again? I warn you, the person we are arresting this time is very important, and there must be no mistakes!"

After the words were spoken, there was no response from inside the carriage.

The man in black stopped the carriage and opened the curtain, only to see his companion staring at him in horror.

The man in black was startled. He looked at his companion and then at the floor.

The little fat girl lying here has disappeared...

His eyebrows jumped and he quickly drew out his sword and slashed at the shadow beside his companion.

A hand wearing a silver glove easily caught his sword.

His face changed.

The next second, Su Xiaoxiao grabbed the sword, and with a flash of sword light, the killer was killed!

Su Xiaoxiao jumped off the carriage and stepped over the corpse with a sword in hand.

There were several men in black guarding outside the yard.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, took a detour to the side, and climbed over the wall into the yard.

In fact, she was not sure whether she could find Princess Hui'an here.

Princess Hui'an is a bait, but the bait and the target may not be held in the same place.

She searched room by room.

Sure enough, there was no trace of Princess Hui'an.

Suddenly, the sound of men talking angrily came from the innermost small room.

"Are you crazy? Who allowed you to do this?"

This sound——

Su Xiaoxiao walked towards the house quietly and squatted outside the window.

Then a middle-aged man's voice followed: "Why are you so excited, Your Highness?"

Your Highness...it seems to be Xiao Duye without a doubt.

Su Xiaoxiao concentrated and held her breath, continuing to eavesdrop.

Xiao Duye said coldly: "The bodies in the cellar have been exposed. Xiao Chonghua and the Dali Temple found out that it was your White Lotus Sect who did it. Instead of staying out of the spotlight, you have reached into the palace again! If you want to die, hurry up and don't drag me down with you!"

It seems that the corpse under the attic was found by the White Lotus Sect, but it was not ordered by Xiao Duye.

The middle-aged man sneered and said, "Your Highness has cleared himself so cleanly, could it be that you have forgotten about the competition?"

Xiao Duye was furious: "How dare you bring this up? You said so much good things at the beginning, that you would definitely help me get rid of Qin Jiang and Qin Che, but what happened? They are both alive and well! I almost got exposed!"
