Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt

Use the calmest tone and say the cruelest words.

Beside the stone table, the slender figure like a willow tree concealed a cold murderous intent.

The one-eyed dragon was bleeding from all his orifices. He howled a few times and fell to the ground, his breath dead.

Dust flew everywhere, and a blood-stained silver ingot fell out of his arms.

A trace of regret appeared in Su Xuqing's eyes.

If she had not been so generous today, would the damn killer have let the father and son go?

"You guys, throw the body into the mountains to feed the dogs!"

The two guards worked together to carry the body away. Chunxiang carefully picked up the silver, with sadness in her eyes. The kind father-in-law who handed her tea actually died like this.

"Princess, it's dangerous outside the city. It's better to return to the capital as soon as possible. We will definitely protect you."

Su Xuqing nodded slightly, and the group set off again, embarking on their return journey.

The small courtyard at the foot of the mountain was filled with the smell of blood. Someone had already discovered the murder inside, and passers-by gathered in front of the door.

Faintly, the woman's crying could be heard.

Yinhuan clenched the silver in her hand and asked timidly, "Madam, should we return the silver so that they can handle the funeral?"

Su Xuqing glanced at the wooden house under the locust tree and said coldly, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor, go back home."

royal palace.

In the Third Prince's bedroom, a figure sat stiffly opposite the Third Prince. Between the two of them was a chessboard with black and white pieces interlaced on it, and the situation was difficult to resolve.

"Your Highness..."

A man came in from outside the hall. When he saw other people present, he lowered his head and half-knelt on the ground. He looked anxious and his breathing was heavy.

The third prince glanced at him coldly.

"Failed again?"

The third prince's confidant was sweating profusely, "Your Highness, that woman is really hard to deal with."

"Humph!"

The Third Prince was furious and said in a cold voice: "You can't kill the Crown Prince's Consort, so can't you kill the Little Princess? What's the point of me having you!"

The third prince slammed the table, and the chess pieces fell to the ground, and the situation that was originally about to be lost was destroyed.

Shen Chejin heaved a sigh of relief. The Third Prince hated being given a handicap when playing chess, but he was a terrible chess player. For the past half hour, he had been wavering between winning and losing and didn't know what to do.

"Someone, drag him out and kill him!"

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Spare my life!"

The third prince's confidant was dragged away, and soon a scream was heard from outside.

Shen Chejin rubbed his brows and said in a cold voice: "It's false that I sent someone to assassinate the Crown Prince's Consort today, but it's true that I killed Tang Xue. I didn't expect this loser couldn't even handle such a small matter. Now that we've alerted the enemy, it will be difficult to attack Tang Xue again."

Shen Chejin smiled flatteringly upon hearing this, "Your Highness, that may not be the case."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

The third prince looked at Shen Chejin, his eyes full of inquiry.

Shen Chejin's mouth curled up, and he said slowly: "Today I deliberately told my wife the news that the Crown Prince's Consort was out of the city. She hated Su Xuqing to the core and sent assassins to Xiliang Mountain to assassinate her. As long as there is a little flaw, the Crown Prince's Consort will definitely point the finger at my wife, and will definitely not find out that someone wants to kill the little princess."

The Third Prince laughed when he heard this, "In this case, your wife will not live long."

Shen Chejin shrugged indifferently, "She's just a brainless woman. I've had enough of her. If she dies at the hands of Su Xuqing this time, I can just find another woman."

The third prince raised his eyebrows, "It seems that the beating last time was not in vain. You are now much calmer than before, and your brain is also sharper."

Shen Chejin quickly cupped his hands and said, "It's all thanks to your highness's good teaching."

The third prince reached out and patted Shen Chejin's shoulder with a satisfied expression.

"After getting rid of Shen Xuanheng and Su Xuqing, this Zhennan Palace will be in your pocket. After you get the title, you will be the most powerful official in this palace."

Shen Chejin showed joy on his face and thanked him repeatedly.

However, after he left, the Third Prince sneered, "You're just like a dog, still as brainless as ever."

Tianxing Pavilion.

The carriage slowly stopped and Su Xuqing looked at Tang Xue.

"My little princess, please wait for me in the carriage for a while. I will be back soon."

"Uh-huh."

Tang Xue glanced at the Tianxing Pavilion outside with curiosity.

In Tianxing Pavilion, Bai Shu was practicing martial arts.

"Butler Bai, the Crown Prince's Consort is here."

Bai Zhu took a stance and walked quickly to the front yard.

"Why is the Crown Princess here at this time?"

"Is Pavilion Master Liang here? I need help from him."

Bai Zhu shook his head when he heard this, "No, the Pavilion Master is busy with other things."

"Not here again..."

Su Xuqing was speechless for a moment. Every time she came to see Liang Heng, he was basically not there. He must be so happy to be the hands-off boss!

Bai Zhu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It's the same if you tell me anything, Princess."

"I met an assassin today."

Bai Zhu's eyelids jumped when he heard this, "What! Assassin! Is the Crown Prince's Consort injured?"

Su Xuqing shook her head, then frowned and said, "There is something I find strange. You have to help me check it out."

"What is it? Princess, just give your orders."

Su Xuqing whispered a few words and Bai Zhu nodded.

"Don't worry, Princess. Leave this matter to me. I will get to the bottom of it in less than half an hour."

"Good work."

Half an hour was neither long nor short. Su Xuqing couldn't let the little princess wait with her, so she went outside the door and asked Tang Xue to go back to the Princess's Mansion first.

"I won't reply."

Tang Xue's eyes darkened slightly. "I only fight this for your family matter. I am here for you, but I was held hostage in the Taoist temple. There must be an explanation for this matter, and some people must pay the price!"

Su Xuqing smiled slightly when she heard this. She understood that the young princess wanted to help her put pressure on the Zhen'an Palace to prevent Su Min'er from taking advantage of the situation and getting away with it.

Su Xuqing took the little princess to have dinner in a nearby tavern. Soon after dinner, Tianxing Pavilion found out what Su Xuqing had entrusted to her.

Bai Zhu found Su Xuqing and whispered, "The assassin was indeed sent by Su Min'er, and the assassin organization has acknowledged it."

Su Xuqing walked slowly with a chill in her eyes. She said in a cold voice: "I thought she had really reformed, but in the end she still harbored evil intentions. We must not let her off easily this time!"

Tang Xue snorted coldly, "I was already displeased with her during the Painting Boat Festival. This time I want to see her pay the price in person!"

The two women left the restaurant, got on a carriage, and headed straight for the Prince of Zhennan's Palace.

Bai Zhu watched the two men leave, and felt that Shen Xuanheng needed to know about this matter, so he ordered someone to rush the horse and deliver the news to the Ministry of Justice.

Ministry of Punishment.

After Shen Xuanheng got the news, he sneered.

"Some people can't hold back any longer. This game of chess has been going on for so long, it should have an ending, right?"

After he finished speaking, Shen Xuanheng strode out of the Ministry of Justice and got on the carriage back home.
