Yang Cui was horrified upon closer examination.
At this moment, the martial monks from the temple arrived one after another, carrying long staffs. The leading monk said, "Amitabha, you gentlemen have been frightened. Are you injured?"
"It's obvious that these people are after my husband and me. They even know exactly which courtyard and room we live in. There must be an accomplice of them in your temple. You must immediately gather all the monks. I want to question them one by one!"
"Esteemed benefactor, it is too late now. This humble monk will come first thing tomorrow morning..."
"Tomorrow morning? Are you trying to let the mole get away?" Dao Ba cursed angrily.
The leading monk said, "Benefactor, the matter has not yet been investigated, please do not..."
"Stop talking nonsense! Quickly gather everyone together, or I'll tear down this dilapidated temple!"
Dao Ba was cursing and swearing. These monks were also hot-tempered. Just as they were about to teach Dao Ba a lesson, a scream pierced the sky.
Immediately afterward, a monk rushed over, shouting, "Something terrible has happened! Kongzhu has been murdered!"
Cen Xiao told Yang Cui to wait there with the child, and left Su Yutang behind to protect them. He then took Dao Ba to the crime scene.
A large group of people left in a grand procession.
Yang Cui was also in a state of shock. Apart from Lin Shikang, she couldn't think of anyone else who would want her life!
If this matter isn't resolved, I'll be living in constant fear. Who knows when he might launch another assassination attempt?

"Godmother, don't be afraid. The four of us will sleep together tonight. Er Ya and San Ya, you two hurry up and get into bed. Don't catch a cold wearing so little. Qiu Qiu, you too, you came over wearing so little."
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Yang Cui shivered.
She turned around to go next door to get Qiuqiu's bedding. The mother and children would squeeze together tonight; they wouldn't be able to sleep, but they could talk. Cen Xiao definitely wouldn't be coming over anytime soon.
Yang Cui turned to go next door to fetch Qiuqiu's bedding and clothes. Suddenly, a dark shadow darted past from behind the big tree across the street, and Yang Cui screamed in fright.
Hearing Yang Cui's scream, Su Yutang and the children immediately ran over: "What's wrong?"
"Godmother, what's wrong? Are there still bad guys around?" Yuan Qiu had already taken out a dagger and was holding it in his hand. He shielded Yang Cui behind him, his round eyes scanning the surroundings. He was on high alert and looked ready to fight at any moment!
Yang Cui said, "I think I saw someone run over."
She felt that the figure looked familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before!
