The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down

Before everyone could react, a few more leaves flew over and easily killed the killer in black.

Pei Shuo caught his breath and asked Pei Yi to take the people away first while he would take care of the aftermath.

Liu Moyan supported Pei Yi, and the maids and old women supported each other, and walked out in fear, but no matter how they walked, they could not get out of the forest.

Xu Yao thought about it, left, and found a few Taoists to rescue all the people trapped in the forest.

The maids were terrified and couldn't stop crying. Zhang heard the news and rushed over, also panicked. "What's going on? Why are there bad guys in Tai'an Road?"

The Taoist priest had already sent someone to report to the police. The Third Prince did not leave the Taoist temple and rushed over after hearing the news. Pei Shuo stayed with his sister, but he kept looking at Liu Moyan with a worried look in his eyes.

Liu Moyan shook her head at him, indicating that she was fine, but she was extremely flustered.

What happened? Didn't they escape a disaster? Why did something bad happen again? Pei Yi was almost seriously injured. If someone didn't help them suddenly, they would have died in the forest.

Xu Yao put a cloak on Liu Moyan and asked with concern: "My lady, are you okay?"

People from the yamen arrived soon and the female family members were put on carriages. Pei Shuo stayed behind to clean up the mess. Zhang was still in shock and was anxious to take her daughters back.

When the group returned home, their emotions gradually calmed down. Zhang immediately called a doctor to treat everyone. Except for a few old women who sprained their feet and a maid who was chopped, at least their lives were saved.

When no one was around, Zhang couldn't wait to ask Liu Qingwan what had happened.

Liu Qingwan was also very scared: "Those people should be coming for the Third Prince. Madam Pei and I went to the back mountain to see the crabapple flowers, but somehow we ended up in the woods and couldn't get out. Then we ran into those men in black, and heard them say something like killing the Third Prince..."

Zhang was angry, it was really an unprovoked disaster. But she also knew that she could never tell anyone about this, let alone blame the Third Prince, after all, he didn't ask you to run into the assassin.

However, after this incident, Zhang strictly forbade her daughter to go out.

Liu Moyan repeatedly assured Zhang that she was fine before she was willing to leave. Before leaving, she rarely spoke and praised Xu Yao, "You girl, you are not useless."

If she hadn't called for help in time, everyone would still be trapped in the woods.

After Liu Moyan and the others left, she held Xu Yao's hand and said nervously, "Go to the Pei family tomorrow and see how Madam Pei is doing."

She was really afraid that Pei Yi would fall seriously ill and be unable to get up. Then, the matter of the pearl crown would be hidden. Wouldn't they have to go back to the old path of their previous life?

Xu Yao nodded in agreement, fed her a tranquilizing medicine, and left. Zhang sent two maids that night and asked them to take care of Liu Moyan. She still felt that Liu Moyan could not be without a maid who served her personally.

The two pretty maids, named Chunyu and Chunlan, were eager to take on tasks as soon as they arrived, leaving Xu Yao to rest. Xu Yao was happy to have some free time, so he hurried back to rest.

In the yamen, Zhao Jin looked at the bodies being carried back and found that these people were top killers, but they all died at the hands of Ye Zi.

He was deeply puzzled: "Has the young master of the Pei family's kung fu reached the point where he could kill people with his fallen leaves?"

The subordinate said, "Prince Pei said that these people seemed to be coming for the Third Prince. Madam Pei and the others accidentally ran into these people and almost met with misfortune."

Zhao Jin's head hurt even more when he heard this. Murdering the prince was no ordinary crime.

Zhao Jin went to the Zhenguo Mansion overnight to ask for more details, but was told that Madam Pei was frightened and could not see guests. Only Pei Shuo came out to entertain him and told him what happened.

Zhao Jin asked: "Were all those men in black dealt with by the prince?"

Pei Shuo hesitated for a moment and nodded. Zhao Jin was shocked by his ability, asked a few more questions, and left with his men.

The long-servant was nervous: "Prince, is it really okay for us to say this?"

It was clearly not the prince who killed the person, so why would the prince acknowledge it?

"That person helped secretly, obviously he didn't want to reveal his identity. Anyway, these people deserve to die. I'm taking this responsibility, which can be regarded as helping the benefactor."

The long-servant understood and felt grateful for the righteousness of his own prince.

Xu Yao hid in the dark and thought that this boy was sensible. It was a pity that she killed someone and had no chance to plunder the money from them.

You know, in the end times, if you kill the enemy but don't take the opportunity to steal supplies, it would be a huge waste. What a pity.

She went to see Pei Yi again and found that she was in good condition and was not frightened as the outside world had said. She heard Pei Yi tell her mother that those people did not know where they came from and if they took revenge, it would be very dangerous. This was the opportunity for Pei Yi to pretend to be sick and avoid unnecessary investigation.

Pei Yi took advantage of the fact that no one was around and nervously told her mother, "Mom, it seems that those people are not only coming for the Third Prince, but they also want to drag our family into this. From what I heard, they not only knew that the Third Prince would go to the Taoist temple, but also that we were going to burn incense."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was horrified. Those people knew about her family's actions, which could only mean that there was a traitor in the mansion.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo asked Pei Yi to have a good rest while she went to catch the traitor in a hurry.

Xu Yao went home only after she had found out enough. But halfway through, she smelled the delicious aroma of wontons, and she couldn't help but find the stall and ordered a big bowl of wontons.

The thin wonton wrapper, wrapped with shrimp meat, tasted very delicious. Xu Yao was drinking the soup, and was just sighing that the soup tasted very good, when suddenly a figure appeared in front of him.

Xu Yao looked up and saw an old man with a white beard, stroking his beard and smiling at her kindly.

Xu Yao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that everyone around her had disappeared, and there was only this old man in front of her. She looked at him warily, and the old Taoist smiled: "Young lady, there is no need to be afraid. The old Taoist came here because I think you have amazing bones and are a good seedling for practicing Taoism. I wonder if the young lady is interested in going into the mountains with the old Taoist to practice Taoism?"

What a familiar routine! Xu Yao put down the bowl of soup and burped.

"Uncle, I'm poor and have no money, so go and fool others."

As he said this, he took out ten copper coins and threw them on the table, then stood up and left.

The old Taoist priest was not angry and continued to follow her: "I saw your ability to kill people in the Taoist temple today. You have a murderous aura that is definitely not what a maid should have."

Xu Yao stopped and looked at him with a half-smile: "Sir, are you threatening me?"

The old Taoist said, "No, no, I just think that you are so talented, and it's a pity to waste your time in this world."

"Uncle, please stop trying to persuade me. I love the hustle and bustle of the world and cannot eat vegetarian food."

She can't eat any of it. She loves meat and can't live without it.

The old Taoist priest shook his head: "Not right, not right. Young lady, you have killed too many people. If you don't practice Taoism, you will definitely encounter misfortune in the future."

This was really not just an ordinary bad luck, it was tantamount to cursing her to death. Xu Yao got so angry that his fist flew out.
