”Indeed, you've worked hard before.” Su Qian Xing smirked as he closed the file. It was something that Xiao Qing Qing had previously given Han Bing, a copy of the evidence that he had secretly interacted with the fourth prince of the Jin Country. He reached out and took the sword into his hands, ”You should go back to your own life. Let's go.”

”Thank you, Your Highness.” The man in black turned to leave, but before he could even take a step, his pupils constricted. With a stuffy snort, he lowered his head and saw a sword stuck in his chest. With an expression of disbelief, he turned his head, ”Su Qianxing, you …”

Su Qianxing looked at him coldly without a hint of emotion on his face, ”Blame it on knowing too much. I do not wish for such a person to exist in this world. After all … Only the dead can keep secrets. ”

'Bang! ' The man's body collapsed, and the sound of his fall alarmed the people outside.

”Mistress?”

Su Qianxing took out a handkerchief and wiped away the blood on his palms, ”Qingshui, clean him up. Also, do the people he sent to assassinate Han Bing know what to do?”

”Mistress, don't worry. I will bring some people to get to know them.”

”Very good.” Su Qian Xing's eyes flashed sinisterly as he looked at the corpse on the ground without feeling any guilt.

As long as he could reach the final position, he didn't care how many corpses he stepped on.

Within the Prime Minister's Estate.

”Li Er, have you finished the matter that I asked you to do last time?”

”Don't worry Miss, everything has been completed and all the information has been handed over to Sir Han. However, this prince's collaboration with the enemy isn't a small matter. Sir Han will wait until the evidence is complete before acting.” Riko stood by the side with a fruit tray in her hand. ”Miss, what happened to you these past two days? Why do I feel so uneasy? ”

”Nothing, just that my eyelids have been jumping for the past two days, I feel a little …” Xiao Qingyi sat on the swing and shook her head to prevent herself from thinking too much: ”How is it going at the Residence of Duke of Han?”

”Miss, if you are worried about the prince, why don't you go back and take a look?” ”The princess of the Jin Kingdom is currently residing in the prince's mansion, and ever since the young miss returned, she has not gone to see the prince. In such a long time, the young miss is not afraid of the prince being pestered by the princess.”

”It is precisely because that woman is in the prince's mansion that I am unwilling to go over, so as to avoid getting angry for no reason.” Xiao Qingyi pursed her lips and put on an indifferent attitude: ”What's more, that man has been so busy lately. A woman is more than enough for him. If there was another one, I'm afraid his body wouldn't be able to take it.”

Riko was taken aback for a moment before she finally understood the hidden meaning behind those words. She chuckled and said, ”Miss said that you're not jealous. The taste of vinegar in those words just now is not small at all.”

”I don't have any, so don't talk nonsense.”

”Actually, Miss doesn't need to do this. Didn't you say that you were not willing to do this?”

Sometimes, one had to admit that the young miss was very bold, and an average person wouldn't dare to do such a thing. After all, it was impossible to disobey the emperor's orders, and even if the king didn't agree, there was nothing he could do about it.

”Although I don't want to, this is the best way. Su Qianxing bet that I would stop him, but I just followed his instructions. As for the result, hehe …” ”Anyway, the one who will go to Zhao Jin and tell her later is not us.”

”You're right …”

”Miss!” As the master and servant were talking, a sudden gust of wind blew in from outside, and under the mask, a serious look appeared.

”Sudden wind? ”Why are you here?” Xiao Qingyi frowned: ”What happened?”

”Last night, an assassin snuck into Han Bing Han's residence. Sir Han received heavy injuries and is on the verge of death.”

”What did you say?!”

”I let Liu Suifeng pass, but the news that came was not good. An hour ago, I received news that there was a riot in a few of the military camps stationed outside the capital. General Xiao Jin Qing was captured alive.”

Xiao Qing's body stiffened as her mind flashed back to Su Qianxing's departure that day and his last sentence. He had said, 'Fortunately, it's not too late'.

”Damn it!” Xiao Qingran cursed under her breath as she quickly jumped down from the swing and walked out in large strides. ”Li Er, go get your father, go to the Residence of Duke Han!”

”Yes sir!”

The news spread very quickly. In less than two hours, it had already spread throughout the entire capital. Everyone was panicking. The news had come so suddenly that it had almost caught everyone off guard.
