Because they remembered Yun Xinling's instructions, they did not touch the carriage, thinking of getting rid of Duan Yu and the others before taking action against Duan Qingxi.
But just as they were fighting, the carriage suddenly rushed towards the edge of the cliff as if it had legs of its own.
They were all stunned at that time, okay? The leading killer saw clearly that there was no one in the front of the carriage, and Xuan Yi quickly used his lightness skills to go to the carriage and try to stop it from moving forward, but the horse seemed to have been stimulated by something and did not accept Xuan Yi's stop at all. In the end, the carriage fell off the cliff.
Seeing this, Duan Yu and Xuan Er also jumped off the cliff!
The three guards were highly skilled in martial arts, so they might not die, but Duan Qingxi and the two maids in the carriage had no martial arts skills, and they were in the carriage, so it could be said that they were doomed to die!
After roughly understanding what the killer meant, Yun Xinling frowned slightly.
She didn't understand why, but she always felt like she was being plotted against.
But she was the one who hired the killer, and there was no one else in the carriage at the time. It seemed like this was an accident, which meant that even God didn't want Duan Qingxi to live!
After thinking for a long time, she took out a stack of banknotes and handed them to the leading assassin, saying, "This is your reward. Remember... you have never seen me!"
"yes!"
The general's mansion was already in chaos at this moment.
Duan Qingxi had not returned for a long time. Duan Sijin became uneasy when he saw that Duan Yu had not returned either, and immediately took people to look for him.
However, they found traces of a fight on the way, and there were also things left by Duan Yu at the scene of the fight. Duan Sijin knew at a glance that they were in danger!
But as they searched, all traces disappeared at the edge of the cliff.
This means... they all probably fell off the cliff!
After learning about this, Duan Hong was so anxious that he fainted.
When the news spread, the emperor and empress became very nervous and uneasy. They immediately sent people to investigate, and Helian Yun also sent a lot of people to the bottom of the cliff to look for people.
Unlike the noisy general's mansion, Duan Shishi's yard was very quiet.
Biyu stood outside the door holding a cup of tea, then breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of darkness flashing in her eyes.
She took a deep breath and then knocked on the door and went in.
"Miss, this is freshly brewed tea."
Duan Shishi just said "hmm", lazily leaned on the soft couch to read a book, and then stood up.
Biyu didn't go out either. She stood beside her and hesitated for a moment before she tentatively said, "Miss, there's a mess outside right now. It seems that... the eldest lady is missing."
Seeing that Duan Shishi didn't say anything, Biyu continued, "Some people say that the young lady was tricked into falling off a cliff and died."
Duan Shishi put down the book in her hand, looked at her and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Biyu choked, looking a little nervous, and continued, "I...I'm just confused. The young lady is about to marry the Fifth Prince, so why would anyone want to attack her?"
Duan Shishi stood up, walked to the table, sat down, and poured herself a cup of tea. "Don't worry about it. It has nothing to do with us anyway."
"yes."
After a pause, Biyu looked at her twice before asking, "Then... do you need me to keep an eye on the movements in the mansion?"
"If she comes back, tell me."
"yes!"
After Biyu left, she breathed a sigh of relief but also frowned.
