"I, I will kill you to avenge my daughter!" said the old man, and suddenly took out a kitchen knife from his arms.

He chopped towards Song Nanzhi's body.

"Prince!" Luzhu and Fusang had never seen such a scene before. They were so scared that their faces turned pale and they screamed at Song Nanzhi.

Song Nanzhi was a martial artist. He was not afraid of the old man at all. Instead, he snatched the knife from the old man's hand and chopped it hard on the old man's neck.

"Pah!" blood splattered everywhere.

The old man fell to the ground, his pupils widened as he stared at Song Nanzhi in disbelief before he died.

"Ah!" Luzhu and Fusang screamed in horror!

The old lady looked at the old man whose head was chopped off in front of her. She fell to the ground and looked dazed.

My mouth opened wide but I couldn't utter a word.

Song Nanzhi cast sharp eyes on Luzhu and Fusang, and dealt with his body.

Although Fusang and Luzhu are afraid of dead people, they are more afraid of becoming dead like the old man!

The old lady sat on the ground for a long time before she reacted.

She rushed towards Song Nanzhi like crazy: "Give me back my old man!"

Song Nanzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, picked up the worn kitchen knife in his hand, and chopped directly into the old lady's body.

"Puff!" The old lady spat out a mouthful of blood onto Song Nanzhi's face.

Song Nanzhi's eyes turned bloodshot as he raised his hand to wipe the blood off his face.

The eyes he looked at the old lady were even colder, and the kitchen knife in his hand kept waving at the old lady's body until the old lady died, and then Song Nanzhi stopped.

Luzhu and Fusang had seen many ways of punishing people in the princess's mansion.

But they had never seen such a murder before. The two men hugged each other, their bodies trembling so much that they could not move.

Song Nanzhi cast a look at them, then said to them with a strange smile on his face: "Divide them and throw them into the well in the yard that grandma brought out, and then cover the well with soil."

Lu Zhu's teeth were chattering with fear: "Yes, Prince!"

The two men supported each other and dragged their bodies to Nanxi Hall tremblingly. After splitting up, they threw their broken limbs into the well one by one.

After they finished their work, Song Nanzhi appeared behind them and looked at them quietly.

Luzhu and Fusang knelt down in front of Song Nanzhi and expressed their loyalty: "Prince Fangzi, I will keep my mouth shut about what happened today and will not reveal the solution."

Seeing that she was sensible, Song Nanzhi nodded gently and pointed at the well mouth and said, "Throw down the kitchen knife as well, fill up the well, and you can have a good rest."

Luzhu and Fusang waited until Song Nanzhi completely disappeared from their sight before they breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had survived a disaster.

The two of them hugged each other covered in blood and cried for a while before they calmed down a little.

Lu Zhu whispered to Fusang, "We must find a way to get the princess to take us back from the Marquis' Mansion at the palace banquet tomorrow. This prince doesn't look as gentle as he appears."

Fuso's face was pale at this time, and he nodded helplessly.

The next day.

The sun is shining brightly.

Song Nanzhi stood in front of the palace gate, looking at the red walls and yellow tiles. The towering walls looked extremely magnificent and solemn under the bright sunlight.

He gently straightened his clothes and was about to step into the palace, but he saw the officials around him pointing at him.

"Isn't that Song Nanzhi? He has been demoted to a handyman, how can he still be qualified to come to this palace to attend the palace banquet?"

"He has to rely on his wife's dowry for his livelihood, but he still dresses like a decent person. You can't tell at all."

"Look at his straight back and his disdainful expression. Does he still think he is the same prince as before? He doesn't even take a piss and look in the mirror. I heard that he was the one who caused the death of Old Madam Song."

"Shh, he seems to be looking towards us, so stop talking."

Song Nanzhi's face turned very ugly when he heard this, but he still had important things to do today.

Therefore, he just walked away from them with an expressionless face, pretending that he heard nothing.

On the way, he met a man who was walking towards him with a smug look on his face.

After Song Nanzhi saw who was coming, he was slightly stunned and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Chen Junting bowed to Song Nanzhi and said, "Brother Song, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Song Nanzhi looked at the man in front of him with a black robe and black hair combed meticulously. He learned from others that the position of deputy commander finally fell to Chen Junting.

Now that he is in his current position, he is doing just fine and has made the acquaintance of many third and fourth rank officials.

In front of Chen Junting now, Song Nanzhi no longer had the majesty he once had. He didn't want to pay too much attention to him and just simply bowed and left.

Chen Junting stopped Song Nanzhi, took him aside and said, "Brother Song, I'm not here to laugh at you, I just want to introduce a few of my superiors to you."

After he finished speaking, Song Nanzhi's expression was obviously stunned for a moment.

Song Nanzhi followed Chen Junting half-believingly and half-doubtingly. If he was not in urgent need of a breakthrough, he would definitely not agree to follow Chen Junting.

Chen Junting brought Song Nanzhi to Shen Yizhou. Looking at the familiar man in front of him, Song Nanzhi's face looked a little unnatural.

Chen Junting, who was standing by, tugged at Song Nanzhi's sleeve to remind him.

Song Nanzhi came back to his senses and bowed to Shen Yizhou: "Sir Shen."

Shen Yizhou just glanced at Song Nanzhi indifferently, then raised his hand to let him get up.

Liu Yueru, who was hiding in the corner, watched the scene in front of her quietly. Now the court has automatically divided into three major gangs. One is the prince's party, one is following Prince Jin, and the other is a deeply hidden faction that supports the fourth prince, Prince An Ning.

In the previous life, everyone always thought that King An Ning was a law-abiding person who did not fight or compete. In fact, he was the one who hid behind and reaped the benefits.

However, Shen Yizhou had been hiding very deeply. He did not get close to the Crown Prince and Xie Jingrui, but disguised himself as a subordinate of the Third Prince, so as to find out more information and bring it back.

Shen Yizhou came to the Marquis' Mansion uninvited that day. I guess he wanted to find out about the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion, which is why he intentionally approached me.

Chen Junting took Song Nanzhi to get to know the officials. Song Nanzhi's face showed a little more joy, as if he had returned to the glorious moment when he was full of vigor and vitality.

Song Nanzhi's gaze suddenly fell on Liu Yueru in the corner. After greeting the people around him, he walked towards Liu Yueru.

With a slightly raised chin and a proud look in his eyes, he looks like a victorious rooster.

Liu Yueru stood quietly, staring at Song Nanzhi as he walked towards her.

"Yue'er." Song Nanzhi called Liu Yueru affectionately with a happy look on his face.
