"It is said that the prince quietly left Beijing for Wuyang Mansion, was assassinated and disappeared on the way back to Beijing."

"disappeared?"

Fu Yinong was stunned for a moment.

Hu Youwei nodded, with a serious expression on his face. Although he didn't know whether the news was true or not, it would never be groundless.

"Thank you, Chief Hu, for letting me know."

Fu Yinong thanked Hu Youwei.

"Miss Fu, you are welcome. Since the things have been delivered, let's say goodbye. I wish Miss Fu a safe journey ahead."

Hearing this, Fu Yinong smiled and nodded.

After sending Hu Biaotou and his party away, Fu Yinong checked the carriage and several horses one by one. After confirming that there was no problem, he turned around and walked in front of Xiao Rongjin and sat down.

"Something happened to the prince."

"He was assassinated and disappeared."

Fu Yinong's two words made Xiao Rongjin frowned deeply. This is really not good news. I don't know whether something happened to the crown prince himself or the substitute. If something happened to the crown prince himself, This imperial court is afraid that there will be another bloodbath.

At this time, Li Dengyan, who was being worried by Xiao Rongjin, was lying down in a haystack, and he was stabbed deeply in the chest. If the knife was further missed, Li Dengyan would be killed on the spot.

"Prince, you must hold on."

Jin Ling was covered in blood. He was no less injured than Li Dengyan, but he didn't hurt his heart, and he could barely hold on.

Neither of them expected that not long after they left Wuyang Mansion, they encountered another wave of siege by 30 people. This time, without the help of Xiao Rongjin and Fu Yinong, only with a team of hidden guards, after a fight, In the end, there were only the two of them left, and Li Dengyan was stabbed and died.

Jin Ling didn't dare to take the seriously injured Li Dengyan on the road, so he could only hide in a remote haystack in a farmhouse, planning to invite a doctor over. However, he was worried about leaving Li Dengyan here alone, in case something happened. Even if he had ten heads, it wouldn't be enough to cut him off.

While Jin Ling was hesitating, Li Dengyan pointed to his sleeve pocket, which contained the golden sore medicine he had brought.

Jin Ling took out the medicine and sprinkled it around the wound, but he didn't dare to draw the knife, so he could only worry secretly.

Just at this moment, the two of them suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes, Jin Ling's expression froze, and they looked at each other, holding their breath, not daring to breathe.

"Witch, it's getting dark, let's take a rest here first. At this speed, we should be able to reach Wuyang Mansion tomorrow."

The maid Chungui looked at the sky, then said respectfully to Luo Xuerou in the carriage.

"Ah."

Luo Xuerou responded softly, and she leaned softly on the carriage. She was really tired after chasing Xiao Rongjin all the way.

This place is the only way to go to Wuyang Mansion, and the village is full of smoke, and it is already time for dinner.

With Luo Xuerou's consent, the carriage continued to drive towards the village. When passing by a pile of thick haystacks, Luo Xuerou suddenly smelled a bloody smell. She lifted the curtain and looked over, waiting to see When the farmhouse made ordinary haystacks, it lowered the curtain of the car quietly.

Jin Ling held his breath tightly, listening to the movement outside, and he was relieved until the sound of the wheels disappeared and he couldn't hear the sound anymore.

Here, the maid Chungui parked the car outside a spacious yard, and after negotiating with the owner, she managed to rent it for one night.

Entering the room, the four maids quickly fetched water, made the bed, moved things, and arranged the room in an orderly manner.

Luo Xuerou remembered the smell of blood just now, so she opened her mouth and said to Chungui.

"Chungui, go and see the haystack we passed by when we came in."

"Miko, but what's wrong?"

Chungui asked with a surprised face.

Luo Xuerou nodded.

"Go, be careful."

When Chungui took the order to leave, Luo Xuerou squinted her eyes, and leaned lazily on the back of the chair.

Here, Chungui approached the haystack cautiously. Holding her sword, she purposely stepped lightly. She also knew that the haystack was the best place to hide people, but in this countryside, most people would not hide in the haystack even if they had nothing to do. Here, the witch specially reminded her to come and take a look, it must not be easy.

Thinking in this way, Chungui stabbed the haystack with her sword, while she stabbed, she listened to the movement, but after stabbing more than a dozen swords, the entire haystack was stabbed all over, and there was no movement.

Seeing this, Chungui frowned, put away her sword, and carefully looked around the haystack. Suddenly, she found a place on the haystack that seemed to have been stepped on, and there was a faint red sticky on the hay.

Seeing this red color, Chun Gui's expression froze immediately, because the sky was dark, she had ignored this red color just now.

She drew out her sword again, leaped onto the haystack, kicked the top haystack, swung her sword and chopped it off.

After cutting open the haystack, Chungui's breath stopped for a moment, and he saw that there were large bloodstains in the haystack where people had been lying, and these bloodstains were quite fresh, the people here should have just left not long ago.

Thinking of this, Chungui immediately flew towards the village.

It turned out that after the carriage passed by the haystack, Jin Ling took Li Dengyan out of the haystack in the dark just in case, and hid in an abandoned and dilapidated farmyard in the village.

Fortunately, Jin Ling reacted quickly enough to escape the catastrophe.

Here, Chun Gui reported the matter to Luo Xuerou in detail. After hearing this, Luo Xuerou fell into deep thought. After a while, Luo Xuerou suddenly spoke.

"Go and find out what happened recently."

"Yes, Miko."

The four maids responded respectfully, turned around and left one after another.

The four of them split up and headed in four directions.

When the four of them came back again, they brought back the same news: the prince was assassinated and disappeared.

"what?"

When Luo Xuerou heard it, she stood up from the chair in surprise.

"The prince actually left Beijing quietly? He came to Wuyang Mansion? Could it be because of Xiao Rongjin?"

"He was assassinated, could it be such a coincidence?"

As she was talking, Luo Xuerou's eyes suddenly lit up. Compared to the smelly, hard, stubborn Xiao Rongjin, Prince Li Dengyan was obviously a better tool to use.

As long as she can find Li Dengyan before others, rely on the grace of saving his life, and then escort him back to Beijing, the identity of this benefactor will be secure.

As long as Li Dengyan is under control, what else does Xiao Rongjin need, besides, Xiao Rongjin has already fallen into her love gu, and is already in her pocket, so there is nothing to worry about.

The crown prince was assassinated, this is really a godsend opportunity.
