The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

The man opened his eyes and found that the neck he had been covering did not have blood splattering as he had imagined, but only a scratch on the skin, with some blood oozing out.

From this we can see how powerful Shen Qingyan's swordsmanship is and how accurately she controls her strength.

He touched it repeatedly several times and made sure that it was only a superficial wound. Then he stood up tremblingly and shuddered with fear at the sight of Shen Qingyan.

"Well, I was wrong too. The sword is fine. I'm leaving now..."

"stop."

As soon as Shen Qingyan spoke, the man's body froze instantly. Lai Fu also gained confidence, and he and Qingmei stopped him on the left and right.

Shen Qingyan walked slowly in front of him, casually playing with the sword in her hand, her voice icy cold.

"Who sent you?"

The man shuddered and swallowed nervously.

"No, no one, we just think there is something wrong with the sword, no, that's not right, the sword is fine..."

Before he could finish stuttering, a cold light flashed before his eyes, and he saw the sword in Shen Qingyan's hand was already on his ear, about to cut it off.

"You smell strongly of alcohol, you must be a heavy drinker. How about I cut you some appetizers?"

The man was trembling all over, his eyes full of fear.

Crazy, this woman is a lunatic.

"No, no, I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"

"Yes, a girl dressed as a maid found us and gave us a lot of money, asking us to come here to cause trouble..."

Dressed as a maid?

Shen Qingyan had a plan in mind, and asked in a deep voice: "That maid has a pair of phoenix eyes, wears an emerald green dress, and has several hairpins on her head?"

"Exactly."

Shen Qingyan sneered in her heart. This was exactly the outfit of Xia Zhu, Shen Yunjiao's personal maid. Most of the maids in the Prime Minister's Mansion wore emerald green dresses in summer. Xia Zhu followed her master and was an outspoken and vain person. Shen Qingyan could always see her wearing hairpins all over her head.

"I understand. Go away now. Tell others that if they dare to come again next time, they will not just be frightened and have minor injuries."

"Yes, yes, I understand. Thank you for sparing my life, young lady."

The man fled in panic.

Lai Fu scratched his head, somewhat unwillingly, and asked in a low voice: "Boss, are we just going to let them go like this? It's really a bargain for them."

Qingmei took the opportunity to speak up, "That's why you don't understand. Our princess is gentle and kind, she shows mercy and doesn't bother with those scumbags."

Gentle? Kind? Mercy?

Lai Fu's heart trembled. Could these characteristics really be reflected in the princess?

While he was distracted, Shen Qingyan had already walked into Fengxing Pavilion, and Lai Fu hurriedly followed.

"How's business these past two days?"

"Thanks to the princess, business is booming. Many knights in the martial arts world come here to buy. Many dignitaries also come to buy. Some even come back as repeat customers."

As he spoke, he handed over the account book with a tactful look.

"Master, please take a look."

Shen Qingyan took a few glances and went to the warehouse after finding that there was no problem.

A lot of swords in the warehouse have been sold, it’s time to restock them.

"Have you contacted the sword-making pool that Fengxing Pavilion often cooperated with? When will the next batch of swords be forged?"

"This..." Lai Fu looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak.

Shen Qingyan glanced at him indifferently and said, "Speak."

Lai Fu quickly told the truth, "Several sword-making pools were unwilling to cooperate with us before. I have been trying to communicate with them, but they just won't give in."

"Unwilling to cooperate?" Shen Qingyan's eyes darkened, as if she had thought of something.

"Was it before or after the opening of Fengxing Pavilion?"

Lai Fu said in a low voice, "After the opening."

Shen Qingyan sneered. It would have been fine if it was before the business opened, because they had no money to make due to poor management, but now that the business is booming, they are unwilling to cooperate.

It's hard not to think too much.

Shen Qingyan had an idea in mind, so she said to Lai Fu: "Leave this matter to me, you just need to manage Fengxing Pavilion well."

"Yes."

After coming out of Fengxing Pavilion, Shen Qingyan felt her stomach growling with hunger.

Because I got up early and had no appetite, I only ate a little for breakfast. Now I feel a little hungry.

Shen Qingyan rubbed her stomach and decided to go to Shen Yuanmu's place to get some food first.

----

Prince Su's Mansion.

The first thing Gu Beihuai did after court was to return home.

No matter how the queen tried to persuade him to stay, he refused to stay for breakfast.

His little princess should be waiting for him, right?

If I go back now, it would be a natural thing for me to have breakfast with her.

However, when Gu Beihuai returned home, he learned that Shen Qingyan had gone out early in the morning and went to Fengyue Tower.

Gu Beihuai played with the jade ring on his thumb, his expression gloomy.

A place like Fengyue Tower, full of fireworks, is not a place a woman like Shen Qingyan should go.

Shen Yuanmu gave up his promising official career and insisted on doing business. It would have been fine if he had just done business, but he chose to do this kind of business, which attracted his little princess to visit him frequently.

It seems that he has to get Shen Yuanmu back on track.

Thinking of this, he ordered Shuofeng in a deep voice: "Prepare the horses and go to Fengyue Tower."

"Ah?" Shuo Feng was caught off guard for a moment and confirmed carefully, "Prince, going to Fengyue Tower? Are you going to that Fengyue Tower?"

Gu Beihuai glanced at him coldly, "Why don't you find the second Fengyue Tower in Beijing?"

Shuo Feng choked and said quickly, "I will prepare the horses right away."

When Shen Qingyan arrived at Fengyue Tower, she found that Shen Yuanmu and Ye Yuege were not there.

There was no one in the room. I asked the servants, but they didn't know where they had gone. I hadn't seen them since last night. I hadn't seen them go out or come in.

Shen Qingyan was confused and worried. Could something have happened?

So he quickly asked Qingmei and the servants to look for her separately, and he also followed suit.

Shen Yuanmu doesn't like too many servants following him. Ye Yuege is the only one who follows him all year round. It is normal that no one knows if they are missing.

A light bulb went off in Shen Qingyan's mind, and she suddenly remembered that there was a secret room in Fengyue Tower, where Shen Yuanmu had taken her before.

Could it be that the two of them were trapped in a secret room?

Shen Qingyan rushed to the secret room and found that the mechanism that was originally easily opened could not be opened at all.

Now she was sure that the two were most likely trapped inside.

"Brother, Sister Yuege, are you in there?"

Perhaps the soundproofing in the secret room was too good, and there was no movement at all inside.

Shen Qingyan tried a few times and found that she could not open the door of the secret room by herself, so she rushed out and called for help.

I ran too fast and accidentally bumped into a wall of people the moment I walked out the door.

"Well……"

Shen Qingyan cried out in pain, rubbed her hurt nose and raised her head, only to find that the person in front of her was Gu Beihuai.

She was suddenly surprised and delighted, "My Lord, why are you here?"

Gu Beihuai's expression was slightly restrained, as if he was displeased.
