The water leak made of green pottery is dripping.

There was constant cheering from the stage downstairs.

As it grew dark, the streets suddenly became noisy.

The two looked at each other, Xiao Yunzheng had something in mind, and he raised his eyes to look out the half-open window.

Thick smoke was billowing from the Censorate's Office in the distance.

"The fire started in the coroner's room." With a firm tone and complete calmness, Xiao Yunzheng's eyes were filled with self-mockery and he sighed very softly.

"It is indeed His Highness."

Hearing this, looking at Xiao Yunzheng's thin and sharp profile, A Bao calmly asked back: "If Master Xiao is really a good brother, why would Xiao Jingyue do this?"

A fire broke out in the coroner's office and Xiao Jingyue was burned to ashes.

Finally, it's all over.

Xiao Yunzheng looked towards the thick smoke, and swept his gaze inconspicuously across to the Xiao Palace two streets away. After a long silence, he withdrew his gaze and looked fixedly across from the tea table.

Her eyes were so calm that it made him despair.

But he still wanted to look at it a little longer so that he could remember it more clearly.

"Your Highness, do you hate me?"

Xiao Yunzheng asked suddenly, leaving Abao in a trance for a moment.

But when she was silent, Xiao Yunzheng changed the subject and said, "Now that things have come to this, I will return it to Your Highness."

The sandalwood box was opened.

Unexpectedly, what caught Po's sight was the familiar goldfish bowl.

She even had the illusion that the little goldfish seemed fatter and more lively after being raised by Xiao Yunzheng than when she gave it to him.

Xiao Yunzheng stood up and said, "Your Highness, I will take my leave."

Hearing this, A Bao quietly clenched the edge of the teacup and watched Xiao Yunzheng turn around and leave.

She stared at the small goldfish bowl on the tea table thoughtfully.

She tapped gently on the edge of the tank, and the little goldfish seemed to recognize her. It floated to the surface, wagging its pretty little tail, and looked at her.

"He comes when he wants and leaves when he wants?" Xuan Ji was confused: "He took such good care of this little goldfish, why would he suddenly want to give it back to you?"

Not only Xuan Ji was confused, A Bao was also puzzled.

The Yunqi Palace and the Xiao Palace in Jiangnan are far away.

Xiao Yunzheng took the trouble to bring it out, but then said - give it back to her?

Thinking back on his recent behavior, everything about him is really weird.

In the silence, the sky grew darker.

Po was preoccupied. He stared at the lively little goldfish blowing bubbles and felt inexplicably nervous.

After a while, to the west of Prince Xiao's Mansion.

Jiangnan in early winter is already bustling, and this autumn the harvest is rich, so there are more street vendors, selling rice cakes, sunflower seeds, and candied haws...

But the small courtyard at the end of the alley with its green tiles and gray walls was so quiet and cold.

A middle-aged man was drunk in Yihongyuan, took the wrong road and knocked on the wrong door.

The strong man in the yard pushed open the door and said, "Get out!"

The middle-aged man was drunk and tried to force his way in.

Suddenly, there was a strange gasp from a beast.

The burly man blocking the door sneered, "Since you're looking for death, dinner's yours!"

The leader of the secret guards, Jian Qian, followed the middle-aged man as he was dragged into the yard. Looking inside, he saw that the small yard was a funeral hall.

The blood-stained coffin was wide open.

There are rows of white candles in front of the incense table.

The secret guard tried to move forward again, and was even more horrified.

They had been searching for Xiao Ba and Xiao Jianghe for days.

At this moment, he was lying in a coffin.

"Hurry back and report to my wife!"

The secret guard subordinate who received the order rushed into the theater and clenched his fists excitedly.

But after he told everything he had seen and heard, the secret guard discovered.

The lady's expression gradually turned cold, but she did not move.

Thinking of the strange and gloomy scene in the courtyard, the secret guard was frightened and said, "Madam, what should we do next?"

"...Take me first, no." A Bao thought again and again: "First fence off the small courtyard, and then pass my message to the owner of the Yue Lai Teahouse in the front street - say that the teahouse has launched new dishes, and invite guests to taste the dishes for free to show their support."

"It just so happens that the people in the three streets near the courtyard were chosen."

"Remember, everyone is welcome to come."

The secret guard understood and gave the order to leave.

Xuan Ji was eager to try: "Why don't we go and take a look?"

"Of course I have to see it with my own eyes." A Bao brought another team of secret guards who were guarding outside the warm room door and headed straight for the small courtyard next to Prince Xiao's mansion.

As soon as he got close, Bao smelled a strange smell of blood.

But at the end of this alley next to the Jiangnan Palace, there was not a single barking of dogs.

Hiding behind the old tree, looking into the yard.

In the small courtyard shrouded in darkness, when she first saw him, she thought the boy, who was still childish, now seemed like a manic beast, lying on the ground and gnawing at the middle-aged man until only one thigh was left.

The night breeze of early winter blew, and dead leaves fell to the ground with rustling sounds.

Po held his breath and concentrated, but he still couldn't block the animal's sense of smell.

Xiao Ba turned his head stiffly.

The bluish-white face was covered with hideous red earthworm scars, and the mouth was full of blurred blood and flesh.

A Bao was quick to cover Xuan Ji's scream.

Xiao Ba's pale face showed a strange smile, and he growled: "Fragrant, fragrant, fragrant..."

Xuanji gestured with difficulty: "What does he mean?"

Xie Wuai, who rushed over after hearing the news, suddenly popped up from behind his sister and his wife and said, “You two had the same expression when you were looking at the roast chicken.”

Abao: "..."

Xuanji: “…”

Thank you, brother. Please be quiet.

Suddenly, Xiao Baji twitched in pain and looked behind the treetops.

A Bao, who happened to be hiding here, was shocked to realize that Xiao Jianghe had something to say?

She remembered that after the Jiangnan Gathering, Xiao Ba disappeared completely.

Why has Mrs. Zheng never looked for her biological son?

A Bao's mind raced and he became suspicious.

Xuan Ji shuddered and asked, "Has Xiao Ba become the puppet of the Master Meng you mentioned, a Peach Zombie Poison Source?"

"Then, is he still alive?"

A Bao said coldly, "He's just a zombie."

Since the ancestor of the Pei family, Pei Qin, a hundred years have passed, and he has only refined one Meng Guanjing.

But the Pei family and that old man Yuan Chenji should all be aware of this matter.

So, why did they go to so much trouble to harm Xiao Jianghe?
