Knowing that Lu Xiyue was assassinated in the street, Xiao Yunheng hurried over without the fifth prince.

Before the carriage from Wang's Mansion reached Zhao's Mansion, others had already caught up with the carriage.

"How, is there any injury? I'm not here today, why do you have to go out again?" Flying into the carriage, he threw the girl into his arms, Xiao Yunheng checked up and down, and after confirming that there was no injury, he opened his mouth slightly reproachfully.

Unexpectedly, he came so fast, Lu Xiyue quickly adjusted her mentality, hooked his hands around his neck, and said with a smile: "Isn't it because I have something to go out, and I am not injured, and I practiced the flying needle technique today , which means that I really haven't practiced in vain these days."

Staring at the dark and beautiful eyes in front of him, Xiao Yunheng sighed secretly, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is she?"

Tao Jinshuang, he had some impressions.

The white-eyed wolf who was long with Lu Xiyue's cousin all day long and short with her cousin, and finally hijacked Lu's mother to ask her for money.

"I have asked Jing to send her back to the house. I have something to investigate." Lu Xiyue took out the human skin mask torn off Tao Jinshuang's face.

"She said that there are many people who want to kill me, who could it be?"

Thinking about it carefully, she did offend quite a few people.

Xiao Yunheng took a deep look at the human skin mask, pulled the person into his arms, and said, "No matter who it is, with me around, don't even think about hurting you."

Soon arrived at the Zhao Mansion.

Outside, the news that Princess Ning was assassinated in the street quickly spread.

The current situation is tense and the wind is turbulent. This news quickly spread to Emperor Hui's ears. Not long after, the unlucky adults in charge of the recovery of the capital were summoned into the palace and reprimanded.

People's hearts are not stable, and even the capital is not peaceful.

I don't know how many times this has happened. It can be seen that these people are living on the salary of the common people, but they don't do business.

After being scolded for a while, when the adults left the palace, their complexions were still very bad, and they greeted Tao Jinshuang who assassinated Lu Xiyue several times in their hearts.

It's really a big pot from heaven, someone wants to kill Princess Ning, and they can't stop it even if they want to.

That night, the capital stepped up its patrols, and even tripled the number of guards guarding the city gate.

When Lu Xiyue and Xiao Yunheng returned to the house, they thought Mother Lu would come to inquire about Tao Jinshuang, but unexpectedly she just came to see if she was injured, and did not mention Tao Jinshuang between the lines.

"Mother, she has completely hurt her heart." Looking at the direction Mother Lu left, Lu Xiyue pursed her lips.

She didn't even understand that Tao Jinshuang had escaped, so why did she come back and kill her? Didn't she push herself to a dead end?

Soon, she knew why.

Tao Jinshuang was ruthless, but she couldn't stand the punishment, so she quickly explained what happened after she escaped.

"After escaping from the prison, she had made an agreement with Ji Jia Dalang to wait for him to go home and get the silver and then leave. Unexpectedly, Ji Jia Da Lang killed Mrs. Ji, so she had to escape alone. On the way she met A young company originally thought that it could swindle the other party's money, but it didn't expect that the young man was a human being, so he tricked her and sold her to bandits..."

Jing Yi calmly spoke Tao Jinshuang's confession.

Lu Xiyue understood.

No matter how miserable Tao Jinshuang was, her face was really pretty.

When she arrived at the bandit's den, she was actually taken by the bandit leader. As the bandit leader's wife, she could have lived a stable life for a while, but the second master in the bandit's den had long been unconvinced. On the day of her wedding with Tao Jinshuang, she poisoned the wine and killed the bandit leader.

Tao Jinshuang ran out after several twists and turns, and it didn't take long to hear that she was rectified after returning to Beijing and became Princess Ning.

The suffering and torture of the past few days made her feel strongly unwilling, and she blamed all the dissatisfaction and hatred on the Duke's Mansion.

So she wanted to come back, kill Lu Xiyue, and then kill Lu's mother.

She wanted to avenge the Tao family, her parents, and herself.

As soon as Ting Jing finished speaking, Lu Xiyue had no emotion on her face, she just curled her lips lightly and said, "If you think so, I'll die. Tell me, is she crazy?"

Those who attacked their biological parents even killed themselves in the name of avenging them.

Not crazy what it is.

Xiao Yunheng raised his hand, held her cheek and kissed her: "Then kill her."

Jing Yi lowered his head knowingly.

Lu Xiyue raised her head, kissed her back, and nodded under the man's dark gaze: "Then kill it, but we can't do it."

Xiao Yunheng smiled, and put his hands on her neck, deepening the kiss.

Jing Yi is still standing in the hall, but luckily there is still a screen behind him.

He felt he should get out.

Just as he was struggling, the voice inside stopped, and the man's words sounded without warmth: "Send it to Shuntian Mansion Yin's Mansion, he knows what to do."

Jing said yes, then quickly walked out of the house, and before leaving, he even closed the door behind him.

In the room, Lu Xiyue put her arms around Xiao Yunheng's neck, bent her lips and smiled: "Did Jing Yi be frightened?"

Xiao Yunheng lowered his head to kiss her, and said vaguely: "Don't worry about him."

Lu Xiyue avoided his approaching gesture, with a serious expression: "Speaking of which, they are also in their prime years, don't they plan to marry a daughter-in-law?"

"Then wait until they meet someone they like."

Lu Xiyue thought of Jingyi's piece of wood, and then thought of another piece of wood, Yanyi, and then Xuanfeng's rotten piece of wood appeared in her mind.

She shook her head, deciding not to.

……

Tao Jinshuang died, and was executed by Shuntian Governor, and beheaded on the street at the market in Xitou.

Assassinating the emperor's relatives is a capital crime, not to mention that she is still a fugitive, and she was hit by a wound. Shuntian Fu Yin did this with the intention of killing chickens and monkeys.

Sure enough, after Tao Jinshuang's death, the capital became much more stable. Not only did the thieves who stole the tribute from the temple at night remain silent, but even the few men who often gossiped in the streets and alleys became much more honest.

Emperor Hui, who had been restless for a long time, finally calmed down when he heard the report from the people below.

It is rare for the capital to have a few days of peace.

Not long after Emperor Hui was pleased, King Guangping suddenly went up to play, wanting to see the third prince.

Emperor Hui stared at the memorial, speechless for a moment.

King Guangping and Concubine Wan are old acquaintances.

He vaguely remembered that when Concubine Wan was able to enter the palace for draft, it was recommended by Princess Guangping's mother's family.

Daqi's draft is different from other countries, as long as the family is clean, the ancestors of the three generations are the same, and they are recommended by someone with an official position, they can participate in the draft.

King Guangping recommended three people back then, and he accepted two into the palace. Concubine Wan was not favored and was left out for a long time. It was not until the third child was born that life was easier.

He shouldn't have brought up the past, but he just didn't expect King Guangping to be so bold, and he didn't avoid suspicion, so he just made a note and brought it up.

Emperor Hui couldn't figure out whether he was being honest or presumptuous.

After thinking about it for a long time, Emperor Hui threw the book aside and decided to pretend that he had never seen it.

He wants to see if King Guangping will mention it again.
