The gunshots that night shook half of the capital.
Especially the corpses that were carried out, they were bloody and some had their heads smashed. It was not only horrific to look at, but also extremely cruel.
Everyone who saw it that day was terrified, and more than a dozen people fainted. Those who heard about it later were also horrified and turned pale.
For a time, the image of a ferocious and murderous killer appeared in people's minds.
It is notorious for stopping children from crying at night.
The Princess's Mansion has been investigating for such a long time but hasn't found any clues. The people in the Dali Temple are having a headache, and now the murderer has committed another crime. It's like a pillow being delivered to someone who is already dozing off.
The rest of the kidnappers were killed, and only the princess was intact. No one would believe that it was a coincidence.
The killer hid so well, but he took action when the princess was kidnapped.
He even dared to kill the son of the Lu family and the current prince consort, so why couldn't he kill a kidnapped princess?
Therefore, no matter whether he went there specifically to rescue the princess or because he was afraid of Prince Chen, this person must have a relationship with them!
These days, Prince Chen’s mansion has been almost trampled to pieces by people from the Dali Temple. If they can’t find the murderer, their official positions will be in jeopardy.
But King Chen was unaware of this, and after being splashed with dirty water, his icy face turned gloomy and cruel.
Everyone: This King Chen doesn’t look like a good person.
Liu Xueyin woke up slowly after Xiao Li left that day. The pain on her face made her tears fall all of a sudden. After crying twice, she saw herself surrounded by a pile of bloody corpses. The scene was comparable to hell.
She was so frightened that she screamed and fainted, and even after being rescued, she suffered from nightmares.
She didn't even get a good night's sleep, as people from the Dali Temple came to her house every day to question her and asked her to recall carefully what happened that night.
Liu Xueyin recalled and spoke about it, but they didn't believe that she was unconscious from beginning to end, and even less that she didn't see the murderer.
Liu Xueyin couldn't bear it any longer and grabbed something and threw it at him.
Everyone: Hey, she is angry out of shame. There must be something wrong with Princess Chen.
The real murderer Xiao Li is hiding her merits and fame: This development is really unexpected. Apart from the huge shortcoming that she failed to kill Liu Xueyin, it is simply perfect.
"Princess, Eunuch Lou requests an audience."
Xiao Li: No, haha.
After seeing Lou Yan again after many days, I was amazed by him again.
Xiao Li likes Feng Yin, but he just thinks she is cute. He likes her just by looking at her. It is purely out of admiration. She is a beautiful creature and he wants to touch her.
But Lou Yan was different. With his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and slender legs, he looked cold, evil, dangerous, and charming. Just looking at him made one want to do something to him.
This dangerous villain was a perfect fit for her XP.
And this man is a eunuch!!!
Why would a eunuch make himself look so good?
This world is so full of malice towards her, it deserves to be destroyed!
Lou Yan watched helplessly as Xiao Li, who had been quite energetic just a moment ago, became listless. He looked pale and obviously weak as he leaned back on the chair with his head tilted back, his eyes empty and he had no desire to live.
Lou Yan: “?”
"Meet the princess."
Xiao Li waved his hands weakly: "Excuse me, what are you doing here?"
Lou Yan: "I came to visit the princess and close the case at the same time."
Xiao Li consciously ignored the previous sentence: "Case closed, what case closed?"
Seeing Xiao Li's eyes finally regain their spirit, Lou Yan lowered his eyes: "The Lu family unilaterally withdrew the case, and the prince consort wrote to His Majesty, expressing his unwillingness to pursue the murderer any further."
"I was ordered to assist in the investigation. My failure to identify the murderer was due to my incompetence. Now that Your Majesty has granted the consort's request, I have come to inform the princess."
Xiao Li knew with her toes that Lu Yanzhi dropped the case for Liu Xueyin. It was truly a great love. In order to rescue his beloved, he decided not to investigate the murderer who almost killed him.
"Your Majesty, you won't really not investigate, will you?"
Lou Yan: "Of course we have to investigate. Even if it's not about the assassination of the prince consort, the assassin is committing murders wantonly in the capital with such cruel methods. Your Majesty must eliminate this hidden danger, otherwise people will be unstable and the court will be in turmoil."
This...point to her.
"Oh." Xiao Li narrowed his eyes and smiled falsely: "Then Eunuch Lou must have had a hard time."
Lou Yan slowly raised his eyes, and a box appeared in his hand. He opened the lid and presented it with both hands: "This is something the princess left behind. Return it to its rightful owner."
There was a gold orchid hairpin lying in the box, which looked very familiar.
Xiao Li used a golden hairpin to kill Gu Ling. Although she didn't pay much attention, it should be this one.
Xiao Li didn't move, and suddenly smiled and said, "This is not mine."
His narrow, cold black eyes stared at her, and he pursed his thin lips: "This was pulled out from Gu Ling's heart, piercing his heart."
"What does Master Zhangxiang mean? It was you who killed Gu Ling and saved this princess, so why did a golden hairpin appear again?"
She spoke in an innocent tone, but her face was filled with an undisguised smile, and her eyes were filled with teasing and amusement.
Even though she had done something bad and was caught, she was not afraid or timid at all. Instead, she was calm, her eyes sparkled, and her smile was both evil and beautiful.
She is seductive and evil, bewitching people, just like a poisonous peony.
Lou Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "It was my mistake."
As she was about to put the hairpin away, Xiao Li raised his hand and said, "You came to visit the patient but didn't bring any gifts. Take this as a gift."
Lou Yan thought she wanted to take the hairpin back, but the next moment Xiao Li withdrew her hand, raised her chin and looked at him proudly, with a smile in her eyes: "Help me put it on."
Lou Yan didn't move.
Xiao Li asked with a smile, "I am just a princess, how can I be worthy of being served by Master Zhangxiang?"
"Your Highness, you are too kind. It is my honor to serve you."
Lou Yan picked up the golden hairpin, his cold face showing no emotion. He took two steps forward and came to Xiao Li's side. His eyes swept over her cloud-like bun, and he hesitated to put the hairpin on the side.
Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, his wrist was grabbed.
Lowering her eyes slightly, her bright eyes revealed a wicked smile: "A clerk in my shop fell into a water tank and drowned, and two errand boys have disappeared for no apparent reason. Could you please help me investigate, Master Zhangxiang?"
Lou Yan's throat rolled over, and after a while he replied: "Slave... obey your command..."
Xiao Li's gaze moved down to his neck. The slightly protruding Adam's apple rolled, which was extremely sexy.
The next moment, Lou Yan stepped back and broke free from her hand: "I'll take my leave."
The seemingly leisurely pace was actually faster than usual. Was he escaping?
Xiao Li laughed: You're already a eunuch, but you're still so frivolous. Didn't you cut it off cleanly?
Only after he left Xiao Li's sight did Lou Yan stop and finally dared to relax his tense back.
The princess was more alert and smarter than he thought. She knew that he had killed the hidden danger, and she also knew that he knew everything about her.
She didn't know where she got the confidence from, thinking that he would never expose her, and she showed her evil and madness in front of him without any scruples.
Poisoned flowers are deadly, dangerous, and bewitching.
The fragrance of her hair still lingered on his fingertips, rich and charming.
Lou Yan slowly clenched his fist and strode away.
