”Why not report it?” Dong Ling Wan's voice was slightly cold, but her words carried a hint of anger. Even if she had lost her mind, it only took her a split-second to recover. After all, she still had to continue acting out this play.

”This... This servant deserves to die! ” When those few people heard this they knew they couldn't deceive him, so they simply knelt down and kowtowed. At this moment, who knew when they would attack? Who would dare to run around randomly?

Even though he would always talk about it wholeheartedly, when it came to life and death situations, how many people would actually risk their lives for the sake of others?

They knew that this young mistress had a good relationship with her own master. They did not report this because they were afraid of death. If anything happened to their master because of this, how could they bear the consequences?

Dong Ling Wan cast a sidelong glance at them, ”Slaves who are afraid of death are just a bunch of heartless, unscrupulous trash. What use do you have!?” ”Forget it, it's a good thing that the wangfei and princess have their own interests, and that the crown prince is blessed with the protection of the heavens. Back then, there was a mishap in the palace, and His Majesty was afraid that the assassin who escaped injured the nobleman and took him to the palace. He thought all of you were very sincere, but if it wasn't for the crown prince privately ordering me to look, I wouldn't have known that you were all so lazy, you deserve death!”

Upon hearing these words, the few of them were so frightened that their legs went limp. They had only thought of how to preserve their lives, and never expected that Eastern Ling Wan was lying to them. They immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Eastern Ling Wan, ”Second Miss, please spare our lives! Second Miss, spare me! ”

Dong Ling Wan cast a sidelong glance at them and sighed heavily, ”I don't want to hurt myself. I can only blame myself for being too hasty with my words and actually letting you guys hear something that you shouldn't have known about. Now, I have no other choice. However, it is, after all, I that have harmed you all. Chen Huan, when you attack them, do not let them suffer too much.

Chen Huan's sword, which was half out of its scabbard, was completely pulled out. The blade was pressed against the scabbard and made a cold sound, causing the few of them to lose their minds. The few of them hurriedly surrounded her, holding onto the corner of her skirt as they begged, ”Second Miss, we definitely won't speak of such a big thing like this, please spare our lives, Second Miss.”

At this moment, their foreheads were already bleeding, but they still did not dare to stop. Dong Ling Wan's gaze was gentle, as if she could not bear it, but if one looked closely at her eyes, they would realize that her gaze, which seemed to be filled with pity for all living beings, had never once stirred up a single ripple.

After a long while, Dong Ling Wan sighed again, and seemed to be in a difficult situation, ”In that case, you'd better keep your mouth shut. I'll hide this from the crown prince, and when I leave later, you should shut the door and pretend that this has never happened. If you reveal it to others, I won't be able to protect you.”

Those people didn't die when they heard this. They immediately kowtowed to express their gratitude and respectfully sent Dong Ling Wan out of the door. Only after a few kowtows did they put the door back in place. Dong Ling Wan was too preoccupied with her thoughts to notice the terrifying killing intent in the pair of eyes that penetrated through the wooden door behind her.

”Miss, don't work too hard, rest early!” After adding two spoonfuls of spices to the censer, Fang Xue went back to advise Dong Ling Wan.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problems with Ah Xun. But why was she feeling so uneasy? Dong Ling Wan let out a long sigh, and let Dong Ling let Dong Ling help her up to the bed and put out the candle.

The moon was dark and the winds were strong. Within Duke Rong Yuan's mansion, the four servants were gathered together for a drink during the day.

”Come, come, come! Let's drink a few cups to calm down!”

”Come, let's fight for our brothers who have survived a few great difficulties!”

”Of course, of course. If we survive a great disaster, there will definitely be a future …”

Before he could say the word ”good”, that person had already widened his eyes. His face still had the same expression as before and he was just sitting there motionlessly.

”Hey, what happened to you?”

”Hey!” ”You …”

A black shadow floated down from the beam of the room. He was dressed in a black robe, outlining her exquisite figure. She was exceptionally charming. This person did not hide his face, clearly not afraid of exposing his identity.

”It's, it's you. Didn't Second Miss already …”

His gaze turned from misty to fear, and before that person could finish speaking, the woman threw out a willow leaf blade from her hand and stabbed into that person's forehead. The other two people didn't even have time to react before their lives ended in the same way.
