"Look! Someone has fallen from a building!"
"It looks like a woman! Oh my god, look, there's so much blood coming out from under her..."
The people immediately panicked.
No one was watching the fireworks in the sky; the crowd's attention was focused on the person who had fallen from the building.
Pei Xuan also looked up, his sharp gaze sweeping towards the second floor.
When he saw a figure by the pillar, his gaze suddenly froze.
"Something seems to have happened."
Qingwu spoke in a low voice.
"The patrol battalion soldiers will be here soon. If someone dies, the entire restaurant will have to be shut down. I have to go now."
Pei Xuan nodded.
His identity is special, and his private relationship with Qingwu should not be made public.
Qingwu said goodbye, picked up the cat, and quickly went out the door.
Pei Xuan's gaze swept over her back, and when he saw the jade hairpin in her hair, he was suddenly stunned.
this…
How could that be!
"Your Highness!"
The guard who went out to inquire about the situation returned to report.
"The one who fell downstairs is Princess Song Tingyue of Anyang. Today, the General's family is having a meal on the second floor, and the three princes are also there. They are urgently summoning the imperial physicians."
Pei Xuan asked, "How is Song Tingyue?"
"She fell onto the soft curtain of the stage. She should not be seriously injured, but the baby in her womb will definitely be lost."
Pei Xuan's eyes darkened.
If he heard correctly, when Song Tingyue fell down the stairs just now... she called out Jiang Wan's name.
The first floor of Wangyue Tower.
Zhou held the unconscious Song Tingyue in her arms, her face streaked with tears.
"Where is the imperial physician? Why hasn't he arrived yet!"
"Sister Yue, wake up! Don't scare your mother!"
Song Ziyu's face turned ashen: "I've already sent someone to fetch him, but the streets are crowded tonight, and it will take at least half an hour for the imperial physician to get here..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Pei Feng strode over and pushed a folk doctor to the ground.
"Save her! If you can't heal her, I'll kill you!"
The doctor trembled with fear. After taking her pulse, he shook his head and said, "This young lady is still breathing, but her legs are severely injured, and the fetus... is definitely not going to survive."
"What?"
Pei Feng was furious, as if he had suffered a great blow, and almost couldn't stand up.
Song Ziyu clenched her fists: "Why would my sister fall from the building for no reason? Wasn't she going to see..."
It was only then that he realized what was happening.
Song Tingyue went to see Jiang Wan, but where is Jiang Wan?
And Gu Yurong, after such a big incident, she has nowhere to be found!
"I heard it! It was Jiang Wan! She's the one who harmed my Yue'er!"
It must be her!
Zhou cried out in anguish.
Many people heard Song Tingyue's shout just now.
This matter is inextricably linked to Jiang Wan.
Seeing the blood beneath Song Tingyue and thinking of her dead fetus, Pei Feng trembled with rage.
Today, he is determined to kill Jiang Wan!
"Madam Jiang is back," Aru, who had been silent all along, suddenly said.
Everyone turned around and saw Jiang Wan, dressed in a sky-blue jacket and skirt, slowly walking over with just the right amount of surprise on her face.
"What's wrong with the princess?"
Song Ziyu pointed at her and shouted angrily, "You poisonous woman, why did you harm my sister!"
Pei Feng was so enraged that he lost his mind and charged forward with his knife.
Pei Xi held him down firmly from the side.
"Why do you say that, General?"
Jiang Wan glanced at the two of them.
"I did go to the next room to rest, and later I felt better, so I went to the opera troupe to listen to music. I only rushed over after hearing that the princess had an accident. How could I have caused her death?"
She pointed to the geisha beside her.
“I also listened to a complete performance of ‘Wuling Music’ there without leaving the room, and the musicians there can all testify to that.”
Upon hearing this, the courtesan was so frightened that she knelt down.
She glanced at Jiang Wan and took out a few pieces of silver from her sleeve.
"Yes, this lady did listen to our music. She said we had beautiful voices and even gave us a tip."
"She came with us just now."
At that time, although the lady only showed her profile, it was vaguely clear that she was very beautiful, and her dress was exactly the same as the lady in front of her.
She was almost certain it was the same person.
Pei Xi's lips moved slightly: "A piece of 'Wuling Music'... takes at least the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
It has only been half an incense stick's time since Song Tingyue fell from the building.
"So, it wasn't Madam Jiang who pushed Sister Anyang?" Pei Jin whispered.
Song Ziyu said coldly, "Then why did my sister call her name? Everyone heard it."
"perhaps…"
Jiang Wan blinked.
"Does the princess want me to save her?"
"Nonsense!"
Pei Feng was furious. He pointed at the kneeling courtesan on the ground and said, "You slut, have you been bribed by her? If you don't tell the truth, believe me, I'll make you wish you were dead!"
The onlookers couldn't stand it any longer, and someone stepped forward.
"This lady was indeed watching a play at the time; she was sitting under a pillar."
"Yes, it's her, I saw her too..."
Pei Feng retorted angrily, "Lies! You're all lying!"
He was convinced that it must be Jiang Wan.
Besides her, who else would harm Anyang?
"Your Highnesses."
A gap opened in the crowd, and several armored patrolmen walked over.
The man at the head of the group, with gentle features and a handsome appearance, was none other than Ji Huaichuan.
He glanced at Jiang Wan, but did not greet her. Instead, he spoke in a solemn voice.
"I was ordered to patrol and just found Madam Gu, who was just waking up from a coma, in a private room on the second floor."
Gu Yurong was carried over by guards. Her eyes were vacant, her expression was dazed, and she had difficulty walking.
