Anthomaniac Princess - C162

Qiao Liangjin got off the bed and walked over to the beauty bed with light steps. She lowered her head to look at Yu Sheng and continued asking, “Yusheng, where’s Zi Yan?”

Yu Sheng’s expression remained indifferent, as though he did not hear the question.

Qiao Liangjin sat at the side and spoke with an unprecedented gentleness, “I dreamt that Ziyan went to a place very far away where we could ride a boat, but I can’t sit there. Yuesheng, where did Ziyan go? Was he really going to send my brother to school?”

Yuesheng could no longer hold it in and sighed softly. “Mistress, Ziyan is sending my brother to study. She said that she will be back when she has time.”

The pain in Qiao Liangjin’s eyes receded slightly. Her cherry red lips parted into a smile. “That’s great. As long as you’re alive, that’s great …” She muttered softly to herself as she turned around and walked to the window. Leaning against the window, she closed her eyes. She who had never believed in ghosts and gods, this was the first time she prayed for Zi Yan’s safety.

The next day, while Qiao Liangjin was practicing her yoga in the yard, Bai came back from outside and shouted, “Miss, Miss, last night, the East Gate’s Golden Gate was massacred.”

Suddenly, a few names flashed through Qiao Liangjin’s mind. She retracted her thoughts and asked, “The entire Jinmen family was annihilated?”

A’Bai wiped the sweat off his face and nodded. “The Golden Gate is one of the top ten experts among our Wang Cheng. I just don’t know who destroyed the sect.”

A strange smile appeared on Qiao Liangjin’s face. With a bit of gloominess, she walked straight into the room and changed into a man’s outfit. Then she said, “Why don’t we go take a look? Has the capital’s Prefecture Overseer already passed? ”

Xiao Bai was startled. He waved his hand and advised, “Miss, there are …”

Qiao Liangjin stopped in her tracks, looked back at Bai, and smiled. “Do you think I am someone who is afraid of those bloody things?”

Bai fell silent and followed Qiao Liangjin obediently over the wall.

Pink stood under the pear tree and spoke to Rowan, who was standing at the side, “Miss’s martial arts is getting stronger and stronger.”

“Mimi, Miss has changed. Did you notice?” After a long time, Ruo Lan quietly said, “You …”

Pai Di turned her head to look at Ruo Lan, nodded and bitterly smiled, “So you also found out.”

“That’s right, since the day Miss was conferred the title of Prefecture Lord, she has always been a flamboyant person. It was already surprising to me that she didn’t bring the imperial edict to show it to Yu Linglong. When it comes to purple smoke …”

“When mentioning Zi Yan, her eyes seem a little sad. Is it because Zi Yan left too hastily and she wasn’t mentally prepared?” Muse wondered.

Ruo Lan looked thoughtfully at the makeup, thinking to herself, Is that really the case? Maybe everyone wanted to cover it up? Do you want to hide something? No, no, there are some things that cannot be guessed. She nodded slightly and smiled, “Perhaps so. As servants, we shouldn’t speculate too much about our master’s thoughts. Sorry, I have overstepped my limits.” After saying that, she grabbed a broom to the side and went to clean up the courtyard.

Looking at the blooming white flowers of the pear blossom, Pingdai murmured to herself, “It’s time to brew the pear blossom again.” He raised the tip of his foot and plucked a pear flower. He then placed it under his nose and smelled it gently.

Ah Kuan rushed back from the door. He was surprised to see Muse sniffing the pear blossom. He slowed down his pace and asked, “Where is Miss Mi?”

“He and Bai went to the Golden Gate. It is said that the entire clan of the Golden Gate was massacred.” When Muse heard about A-Kuan, she quickly hid the pear flower behind her and smiled at him shyly.

Ah Kuan’s face turned slightly red as well. He turned to look at the pear tree, trying to find a topic to talk. “I can brew more pear blossoms.”

“Un, I was thinking the same thing just now. Brother Ah Kang, you …” What’s the matter? ”

“The Yang family from the south gate has also been killed. He is one of the top ten experts of Xuanyuan Kingdom, yet his throat was cut by a blade.” Thinking about this, A-Kuan turned and hurried out the door. He was going to find Qiao Liangjin at the Golden Gate, Miss must be very interested in this news.

The girl put the pear blossom behind her and sniffed it. Her heart was slightly moved as she watched A-Kuan leave.

When Qiao Liangjin arrived at Golden Gate City, she saw a lot of yamen runners walking in and out. She stood at the door for a while and noticed that everyone was busy at the front. She gave a signal to Bai and went to the back door.

The back door of the Golden Gate Mansion was set up in a very narrow alley. There were many jars in the alley, and the moment Qiao Liangjin got close, he could smell the strong aroma of wine. She rubbed her nose and carefully walked through the pile of jars to the back door.

Qiao Liangjin gently pushed the door, and it suddenly swung open. Qiao Liangjin shook her head. These people who eat official’s meals, isn’t the back door the door? How come they didn’t know that someone was watching them? She walked straight into the courtyard. Even before she reached the Moon Door, she could smell the stench of human blood.

After being an assassin for so many years, she was very familiar with this smell. She turned around and went into the kitchen. There were blood stains all over the place, and thick blood had already covered the entire bluestone floor.

Qiao Liangjin suddenly felt a little nauseous. She rubbed her feet and then leapt onto the roof. Squatting at the side, she watched as the people below busied themselves.

All the corpses were placed in the yard. Qiao Liangjin raised her finger and counted them one by one. There were a total of 27 people. It seemed like everyone in the Golden Gate Prefecture was here.

The Prefecture Overseer stood under a tree, clutching his handkerchief as he asked the coroner who was examining the corpse, “Is it done?”

The coroner examined the corpse and had the coroner memorize all the wounds on it. He then walked up to the magistrate and cupped his hands. “Basically, all of them were stabbed in the heart and died on the spot. What’s strange is that the murderer has cut open the stomachs of everyone here …”

Qiao Liangjin’s heart suddenly throbbed in pain, as if some consciousness wanted to rush into her mind. She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head, pressing down on her throbbing temples to stabilize her mind, she closed her eyes and slowly breathed a few times to calm her mind down.

The magistrate of the capital sighed, waved his hand and said, “All of you can go to the memorial hall. No one is going to collect the corpses anymore. We can bury them later.”

Just as he finished his sentence, a clear voice came from outside the door, “If the people find out that your lordship has fallen so hastily, would they be afraid?”

Qiao Liangjin’s long eyebrows slightly furrowed and she began to wonder why this slut who had a germaphobia would suddenly come to the Golden Gate Palace. He was someone who would never visit the Golden Gate Palace for no reason, was he involved in this? He sat on the roof and waited.

I glanced at the roof before sitting at the seat of the capital’s branch. I lightly covered my nose as I looked at the corpse on the floor.

“The entire Golden Gate Manor has been killed?” The clear sound was very clear.

“Reporting to the Prince, yes, twenty-seven members of the Golden Gate Martial School have been killed. Another messenger has just reported that the Yang Family from the South Gate Martial School has been exterminated.” More and more sweat began to form on the forehead of the Prefecture Overseer.

Qiao Liangjin held her chin as she continued pretending. She had a feeling that all of this had something to do with him.

The clear voice rose slightly, “The capital is under the watch of the Emperor, yet such incidents are happening one after another. I say, Sir Wang, shouldn’t we investigate your crime of dereliction of duty?”

The moment the Prefecture Overseer heard these words, his legs instantly became weak. He kneeled down on the ground and laid there like a toad, shivering all over.

The clear voice suddenly turned pleasant again, “However, this is good too. After all, there are too many poisonous tumors in the capital. That’s a good thing, isn’t it? ”

The magistrate in charge of the capital raised his head and looked at the beloved younger brother of the Son of Heaven in shock, unable to understand what he was trying to say.

He tapped the armrest of his chair and smiled, “Sir Wang, you can check the backgrounds of these two families. You know what Ben Wang means. Alright, Ben Wang’s cat has disappeared. It’s probably because he came here, so he came in to take a look.”

The magistrate in charge of the capital was even more confused. This was a scene of murder. What kind of cat or dog would come here? He hurriedly straightened his body and pointed to the bailiff beside him. “Hurry, hurry, hurry. Go look for him, look for his Royal Highness’s cat.”

With a slight smile, he glanced at the roof and waved his hand gently. “Forget it. This King feels that it has slipped away. This King will go search somewhere else.”

Qiao Liangjin rolled her eyes. Cat? Bullshit cat! To think that she called herself a cat. Her hand touched the ceiling and found a small stone. She suddenly had a mischievous mood.

Su Ming slowly stood up and walked towards the door. He suddenly raised his hand, and a stone appeared in it. He carefully sized up the stone in his hand, and muttered to himself, “How naughty.”

Everyone in the Golden Gate was stunned as they watched this prince go through the formalities and mutter to himself before leaving. One of the bailiffs said softly, “This prince seems to have changed a lot since he was rescued by that fat girl.”

Just as Qiao Liangjin was about to go down to the roof and take a look at the south door, her ears, which had become very sharp since she had good internal energy, suddenly had a sudden impulse to play a prank.

According to the Prefecture Overseer’s request, all the corpses were placed on the cart and dragged to the memorial hall outside the city. Just as the bailiff was about to carry the corpses with others, the corpse suddenly moved its arm and struck the bailiff’s face with a palm.

The yamen runner looked at him in confusion. Suddenly, he smelled a fishy smell, and shouted, “Oh my god, how come you wet your pants?”

The bailiff’s legs trembled as he pointed at the corpse and cried, “His hand …” It moved … “Hit me …” After saying that, he ran out of the room like a madman.
