"We should let some of them go back, or they'll send more people!"
"Master, do you want to kill all of them?" Xu Qingfeng said with a smile, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off the sword.
"Isn't it just that we're short of people to practice with? Using our own people still lacks the killing intent, and using their secret guards is much more decisive! It's just that there are too few people, not enough to kill!"
A small, milk-filled kid on a branch said, "I was worried for so long, afraid you'd get hurt! And now you're complaining that the other party didn't come with enough people?"
Ning Xiaotang smiled faintly and shook her head.
Ye Jingxiao smiled immediately. He actually knew she was there a long time ago, so he killed a large number of assassins so quickly.
At this time, Ning Xiaotang flew down from the tree branch, accompanied by several secret guards.
"Greetings, King Chen!" Ning Xiaotang and the secret guards around him bowed.
"Get up quickly, Tangtang, there are no outsiders here, so don't be polite!" Ye Jingxiao said anxiously.
"Let's go quickly. Someone from the Jingzhao government should be here to deal with this soon." Ning Xiaotang pointed to one of the carriages they had collected.
The two of them got on the carriage and headed towards Shangshuizhuang.
"What? You actually got such news?" Ye Jingxiao in the carriage was immediately shocked.
"So you have to find out who poisoned you and whether that person is still with you. The lady of the Lanbo Mansion said that the person is her confidant, and I'm afraid he is hiding very deeply!"
"Xu Qingfeng, send someone to investigate immediately. No one will be tolerated!"
Xu Qingfeng immediately bowed and said, "I'll have the housekeeper take care of it right away!"
Then Xu Qingfeng sent a carrier pigeon back to Prince Chen's Palace.
However, there was no excitement on Ye Jingxiao's face, only a sinister and cruel look.
Wu Shunyi actually has a confidant by his side? When did this happen?
Ning Xiaotang reached out and patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't be so upset. No one can guarantee that there isn't someone with bad intentions around them.
Moreover, this person is hiding so deeply, I am afraid it will be difficult to find him!"
Lan Bo's Mansion
Lan Yuehong happily drank a bowl of milk dew in her own courtyard and said, "Miss, the dance you performed at this year's annual banquet is now being imitated by all the brothels in Kyoto."
The maid Fu Hui would immediately come forward and coax her with sweet words.
Sure enough, Lan Yuehong was very proud after hearing this and said, "Humph, how can those geishas dance as gracefully as I do?"
"Who says it's not? Those people can only admire the girl's figure. They can only wait until the day when she is free to dance again so that they can see her again."
At this time, Xiao Fenggu walked in from outside: "Fenggu greets sister."
"Sister Fenggu, please sit down. Do you want to chant scriptures with your sister now?" Lan Yuehong immediately invited Xiao Fenggu to sit down.
"In reply to your question, Sister, Fenggu is currently delivering some gifts to the Grand Prince of Xuefei Country on behalf of Madam. I know that you are concerned about the Grand Prince, so I came to see if you have any words for him."
Xiao Fenggu was so anxious at this time that he wanted to ask Xue Changqing and the second prince Xue Changrao whether they had got the treasure.
"Then please send some snacks for the eldest prince to try!" Lan Yuehong immediately waved her hand, and Fu Hui immediately took out a box of snacks.
Lan Yuehong and Xue Changqing are engaged, so they can't meet too often. This is etiquette.
Xiao Fenggu was just an adopted daughter, so it was convenient for her to come in and out.
When Xiao Fenggu heard the Second Prince say that someone else had snatched the treasure from the First Prince, he immediately took a deep breath in anger and said, "So, the treasure was lost just because you didn't care?"
The Second Prince immediately stiffened his neck and said, "How could I not care? This prince has only been on the road for one day, and it's already enough to rush on!"
Master He immediately stepped forward and said, "We must find out who got the treasure as soon as possible. My subordinates have found out that Qin Hai from the Prime Minister's Mansion was in the Yeluo Great Forest, and Ning Xiaotang also came back from the direction of the Yeluo Great Forest!"
Xiao Fenggu immediately asked, "Where did you know that?"
"Of course, I spent a lot of money to buy the information, so it is absolutely reliable!" Master He immediately guaranteed.
The eldest prince, Xue Changqing, immediately said unhappily, "Ning Xiaotang and Qin Hai are both targets. If either of them has rare treasures to sell, it's likely to be from the treasure trove!"
"What are we waiting for? Send someone to arrest these two people!" Xiao Fenggu said excitedly.
"How is this possible? One is the second master of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the other is the newly-appointed Princess Roujia. These two people cannot be touched easily!" The eldest prince said rationally.
The Second Prince immediately said unhappily, "Brother, you should be cautious, but I don't have to be! Let me catch them!"
"Xue Changrao, stop right there! Stop being unreasonable!" Xue Changqing immediately shouted.
“Big Brother!”
"Come back!" Xue Changqing immediately glared at Xue Changrao unhappily.
"Miss Xiao, please go back and wait for news. Remember not to reveal any information about the treasure!"
Xiao Fenggu immediately said, "Anyway, the treasure is yours. You won't forget our agreement, right?"
"Of course not!" The eldest prince immediately smiled coldly.
This woman likes me more than she did at the beginning. Look at her eyes, they can't move away from me.
Although she is still young, she has gradually understood the feeling of love.
As long as Xue Changqing gets the treasure, his mission to the Qingye Kingdom will be a great success.
The Xuefei Kingdom needs treasures to replenish its military supplies so that it can fight against the Qingye Kingdom’s army for a long time.
In the Palace of Prince Chen
The housekeeper Xin Zhuolu locked up each person who served King Chen in the mansion and went through the torture instruments in the mansion one by one.
After all, they were people from Prince Chen's Mansion. Soon, several maids started to accuse each other, saying that the other party had stolen things from Prince Chen's Mansion and sold them. All these maids were caught and imprisoned.
Xin Zhuolu's goal is to find the culprit behind the poisoning, and this time he has a clear candidate.
But before Xin Zhulu touched her, he still sent a letter to Xu Qingfeng.
After all, she is an old lady in the mansion and a leisurely person on the farm.
If this is brought to trial without any reason, it will probably give people an excuse to accuse me.
In the main hall of Ning Xiaotang's house in Shangshui Village
As soon as Xu Qingfeng heard the sound of a carrier pigeon outside, he immediately bowed and walked out. After a while, he came back with a small letter.
"Master, Uncle Xin wants to promote Mammy!"
Ye Jingxiao's expression changed. "What? They're actually going to interrogate Grandma Gao?"
Ning Xiaotang immediately put down the milk she was drinking and said, "What's wrong? Can't this Grandma Gao be brought in for questioning?"
"It's not that I can't bring her in for questioning, but Grandma Gao was always by my side when I was a child. Then an assassin appeared and Grandma Gao received a sword wound on her arm!"
