Those who came were rustling and muttering.
"God damn it, Sha Lei! That day, we clearly saw him sneaking back with a bag on his back, but he disappeared after entering the house..."
"It took us two days to find this mechanism."
"It turns out there's a hidden room here that even our family doesn't know about."
"There must be something fishy going on here!"
"Today I want to see what treasure you have hidden!"
A figure walked in stealthily.
Li Qingluo felt the long-lost light and couldn't help but raise his hands to cover his eyes.
After getting used to it, he lowered his arms and looked into another pair of eyes.
This person is none other than Eunuch Wu, the chief steward of Prince Su’s Mansion.
When Eunuch Wu saw the imprisoned beauty, he couldn't even scream before he was knocked unconscious by a stick from behind Sha Lei in front of Li Qingluo's wide-open eyes.
Sha Lei stepped forward and stuffed another pill into Li Qingluo's mouth, then silently stuffed Eunuch Wu and Li Qingluo into two sacks respectively.
Before Li Qingluo fainted, he vomited the pill he had just taken during the shaking.
She had just taken a breath when she heard a servant curiously asking about Sha Lei.
"Guard Lei, you just came back, why are you going out again without taking a rest?"
"What is this?"
"Do you need my help?"
Sha Lei: "No need."
"This is His Highness's property. If you don't know, don't ask. And don't mention it to anyone else! Do you understand?"
The attendant replied timidly, "Yes. I will clear the way for you."
Sha Lei: "...Okay. Let's take the path where no one will see us today."
Li Qingluo had a bad feeling in her heart. After she had only taken a dozen steps, she was thrown to the ground.
Seizing the opportunity, Li Qingluo quickly used his last bit of strength to take out the silver chain hidden in his collar around his neck.
Hanging under the chain is a solid silver lock, and the silver lock can be opened, and the solid material inside pops out and turns into a sharp pocket knife.
This was Li Qingluo's last little thing for self-defense. Fortunately, the killer Lei did not find it and it was not confiscated.
She cut open the sack in front of her with a knife, and looked up to see Sha Lei killing the servant who led him and dragging him into the bushes.
Li Qingluo saw this scene and thought: As expected! He killed people to silence them!
Li Qingluo had no time to lament for the servant and climbed out of the sack using his hands and feet.
Hearing the noise, Sha Lei turned around and saw Li Qingluo regaining his freedom. He immediately drew his flying knife from his waist and swung it at him.
Li Qing fell to the ground and rolled, dodging in panic.
Then he picked up the flying knife on the ground and ran away.
Although her hands and feet were weak from hunger, she was still able to hold on for a breath and disappeared from Sha Lei's sight after turning a corner.
Sha Lei walked away angrily. He didn't expect that Li Qingluo had left him a backup plan, so he didn't even tie her hands and feet.
However, in the Prince Su's Mansion, apart from Fengyu, Leidian and the other four who recognized her, who else did she think could save her?
Today, he was the only one who returned to the palace.
His Highness is still in a village fifty miles outside the city.
Therefore, no matter what, she could not escape from his palm today.
Sha Lei took the whip from his waist, threw Eunuch Wu into the next room and locked him up, then quickly ran after the direction where Li Qingluo disappeared.
Li Qingluo ran all the way, looking for people.
She opened her mouth several times, but no sound came out.
Moreover, the Prince Su's Mansion was like a maze. She turned around and around and soon lost her way completely.
It was not until he ran to a dead corner of the courtyard that Li Qingluo finally ran into a few old women and servants.
They were also shocked when they saw her.
"Who are you?"
The old woman shouted and came over with a broom.
At this time, Sha Lei also came over with a long whip.
Seeing this, Li Qingluo quickly rushed behind the old woman like an arrow.
Sha Lei's eyes were sharp and cold: "This is a female assassin who intends to do something bad to Your Highness. She has just killed someone in the West Garden. If you still want to live, you'd better get out of here immediately!"
The old woman screamed in fear, but Li Qingluo actually picked up the flying knife that killed Lei and pointed it at the old woman's neck.
The old woman was so scared that she almost cried: "Guard Lei, please save me... I don't want to die..."
Although Li Qingluo couldn't speak, she still sneered coldly as she stared at Sha Lei.
Li Qingluo retreated with the old woman.
It was clearly a blind spot, but she had never thought that she could escape from his clutches today.
She reached out and pinched the old woman's waist hard.
The old woman screamed.
In a short while, many servants gathered around the originally deserted courtyard.
Doesn’t he want to kill people to silence them?
If you have the guts, kill all the slaves who saw me in Prince Su’s Mansion today!
Whether he kills or not, this is a big deal.
Seeing her calculation, Sha Lei showed contempt in his eyes: "Without him, this is all you can do?"
This "he" naturally refers to his own master, Prince Su Duan Rongshi.
He always believed in his heart that the daughter of the Li family could be where she is today thanks to Duan Rongshi's help.
So without Prince Su, she would naturally be nothing.
Li Qingluo bit her lips stubbornly and glared at Duan Rongshi with hateful eyes.
It seemed that even I couldn't refute my contempt for him.
"Where else can you escape to?"
Sha Lei shouted loudly, raised his whip and pounced towards Li Qingluo.
The old woman screamed and covered her face in fear.
