After listening to Jamel Xiao's words, Tao Guang sat down slowly and calmed down.

If you don’t know this, you will definitely think that Jamel Xiao is the master here. After all, he is a hundred times more relaxed than Tao Guang.

"Before I have time to ask, how are the injuries of the two adults? I look at the faces of both of them and they don't look very good."

Zheng Haojie took the initiative to speak: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. The injuries of the subordinate and your Excellency are not serious, but there is excessive blood loss. Just take a good rest."

Gu Jingan smiled when he heard this, "That's good, but this assassin injured both adults. If we catch him later, we must teach him a lesson, so that we can relieve our anger."

When the two heard this, they felt guilty again and could only smile awkwardly.

Not long after, Yun Qi Yunfei came back to resume his life.

They knew very well that there was no such assassin, and their purpose today was not here. It was just a formality, so they did not delay for too long.

When Jamel Xiao saw the two people coming back, he asked knowingly: "How is it? Did you find it?"

"When I return to Your Highness, I have searched the entire Tao Mansion and found no trace of the assassin."

"Oh? Are you sure you searched carefully and didn't miss any corner?"

"Yes, I'm sure, slave."

"This is strange. There are people guarding the entrances and exits, and there are guards patrolling. Could it be that this assassin grew wings and flew out? Sirs, are you sure you met an assassin last night?"

Jamel Xiao chuckled and looked at the two of them, which made Tao Guang's heart tremble.

"This this..."

Tao Guang's mind was not bright at first, but when Jamel Xiao questioned him like this, his mind went blank and he couldn't say anything.

Zheng Haojie was as calm as ever, "Your Highness, are you suspecting that we are making things up out of thin air? The wounds on our bodies are all real. This can't be fake, right?"

Jamel Xiao smiled again when he heard this, "Oh, Mr. Zheng, don't get me wrong, I don't mean this. I just want to confirm with you, why should Mr. Zheng be so excited."

Before Zheng Haojie could refute, Gu Jing'an spoke first: "Jingxuan, that's not right. There is still a place that has not been searched. The assassin might be hiding there."

"Oh? Where is it? You should tell me."

Tao Guang and Zheng Haojie both took a deep breath after hearing this and waited for the next step.

Gu Jingan said with a smile: "It is far away in the horizon but right in front of you. Isn't it Master Tao's room? We have been here just now, so naturally we have not searched it."

Tao Guang was stunned when he heard this, and then immediately became anxious.

"Shizi Gu, what do you mean by this? Do you suspect that Xiaguan is harboring assassins? He chopped down Xiaguan last night, how could Xiaguan help him hide it?"

Seeing Tao Guang's anxious look, Gu Jingan couldn't help but smile, "Master Tao, when did this prince say he doubted you? Don't blame him randomly."

Tao Guang rarely lost his temper in front of the two of them, "What do you mean, Prince Gu? Xiaguan's room is only one third of an acre. Xiaguan has been staying in the room since he came back last night. Why is the assassin here?" What about this?"

Gu Jingan was not annoyed, and still smiled and said: "Master Tao, please don't get excited. You don't know martial arts. Assassins are very skilled in martial arts. It's not difficult to hide here secretly without telling you. Since Master Tao, you are open-minded, Why should you be afraid of being searched by the guards? We are doing this for your sake. Once the assassin secretly hides in your room, how dangerous will it be for you? "

Jamel Xiao agreed: "Yes, Mr. Tao, I think what Gu Shizi said is very reasonable. Just a search can help you eliminate unsafe factors. Isn't this great?"

Tao Guang was really panicked at this moment. He was angry just now on purpose. He just wanted them to give up the idea of ​​searching his room.

Although the secret room in his room is relatively hidden, it is not necessarily undiscoverable.

Jamel Xiao’s guards are all well-trained, and it will be terrible once they discover his secret room.

Those women were still in the secret room, and if they were discovered, he wouldn't be able to explain them.

Thinking like this, Tao Guang unconsciously raised his voice, "No! How can the official's room be searched at will? His Highness the Fifth Prince and Prince Gu must not go too far."

Seeing that Tao Guang was anxious, Jamel Xiao and Gu Jingan looked at each other and smiled.

"We are just trying to catch the assassin, why are you so anxious, Mr. Tao? Is there any secret in Mr. Tao's room that you are afraid of us knowing?"

Gu Jingan almost broke into a cold sweat when he asked Tao Guang like this, "Of course...of course not. Why should I be afraid that others will find out?"

Jamel Xiao chuckled when he heard this, "There is no best, so let's search."

Jamel Xiao gave Tao Guang no chance to refuse and gave the order directly.

Seeing the guards starting to take action, Tao Guang was so anxious that he almost cried and hurriedly asked Zheng Haojie for help.

Zheng Haojie knew everything about Tao Guang, so he naturally knew what secrets were in the secret room.

But Jamel Xiao and Gu Jingan were justified in wanting to search Tao Guang's room, and he really couldn't think of any reasonable reason to refuse, which was why he had been silent just now.

Zheng Haojie shook his head helplessly at Tao Guang, saying that he had nothing to do, and now they could only hope that they would not discover the secret room.

The guards were searching, and Jamel Xiao was naturally not idle either.

As soon as he entered the door, he had already seen the vase Jingshan mentioned, which was placed on the bookcase.

There are other ornaments placed on the bookcase. If you don't know about it, you won't think there is anything special about this vase.

Jamel Xiao stood up slowly and walked towards the bookcase.

"I have always thought that this vase is very special. Master Tao, I wonder where this vase comes from?"

Seeing Jamel Xiao's sudden interest in this vase, Tao Guang was frightened.

"Your Highness, this is just an ordinary vase. It was bought by the housekeeper. It is not a precious treasure."

Jamel Xiao disapproved and said: "Master Tao, please don't fool me. Why would you put an ordinary vase in your room and look at it every day? I have seen many treasures. This vase is worth a lot of money at first glance. Master Tao, don't you?" Would you mind if I pick it up and take a closer look?"

Seeing that Jamel Xiao's hand was about to touch the vase, Tao Guang quickly stood up and shouted: "No!"

But his shouting failed to stop Jamel Xiao’s movements. Jamel Xiao had already quickly put his hand on the vase.

Jamel Xiao tried to pick it up, but found that he couldn't pick it up.

As expected, Jamel Xiao was secretly happy.

"Huh? Mr. Tao, why can't I pick up this vase? Is it because it's stuck on top?"

Tao Guang felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest, but he didn't know how to explain it. He could only nod his head along with Jamel Xiao's words.

"Yes, Your Highness, this vase is fixed on the bookcase and cannot be removed."
