After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

These words made Li Siqi very angry.

Li Siming pointed at Xu Yingying's forehead and said with gritted teeth: "Master Xu is so majestic! This prince wants to see how long Master Xu can laugh."

After saying that, Li Siming turned away.

Li Siqi witnessed the whole process from the side. After Li Siqi left, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Lord Xu is so arrogant. He dares to go against the Crown Prince under the Emperor's feet. You don't know that my brother has many tricks. Aren't you afraid of dying without a complete body?"

Li Siqi couldn't help but tease Xu Yingying.

After hearing this, Xu Yingying rolled her eyes at Li Siqi and said, "What are you afraid of? I have the emperor as my guarantor. What can a prince like him do to me? I don't believe he can eat me up."

"Besides, even if he wants to do something to me, he has to at least get through the current emperor. I still have to investigate the Queen's affairs."

Xu Yingying said proudly that the emperor had something to ask of her, and this was her greatest confidence.

After saying that, Xu Yingying glanced at Li Siqi again and said, "I have always done things in an upright manner, unlike some people who are not sincere at all and try to hide their identities."

"By the way, I have to thank the prince for what happened today. If he hadn't exposed your identity, I might still be kept in the dark by someone."

Xu Yingying couldn't help but mock Li Siqi.

Li Siqi's eyes suddenly flashed with embarrassment, and he didn't know what to say.

At this critical moment, the waiter came with the dishes and broke the awkward atmosphere.

"Gentlemen, this is the crab meat soup you ordered."

“This is Luoyang bird’s nest.”

"This dish is even more amazing. It is our restaurant's signature dish, Mrs. Song's Fish Soup."

……

The waiter brought the dishes to the table and introduced them to Xu Yingying and the others.

After hearing this, Xu Yingying was so excited that her saliva was almost dripping.

After waiting for a long time for the waiter to serve the dishes, she quickly picked up her chopsticks and wolfed down the food.

After eating and drinking, Xu Yingying touched her round belly and fell asleep in the inn room arranged by Li Siqi.

inside the room.

Xu Yingying looked at Chahua, who had become distracted after going to the palace, and persuaded her, "Chahua, relax. Since I promised you to find out the cause of your death, I will definitely give you an explanation. You don't have to be so painful and entangled. You can't imagine the result by thinking."

Camellia nodded perfunctorily, but her eyes were still empty as she stared blankly at the entrance of the room.

The weeds stood beside the camellia, looking helpless, not knowing how to help it.

Seeing that her words had no effect, Xu Yingying simply didn't say anything more. After all, there are some things that she needs to figure out on her own.

night.

After a tiring day, Xu Yingying lay down on the bed and soon fell into a deep sleep.

When Xu Yingying was sleeping soundly, a man in black clothes slipped into Xu Yingying's room.

Ye Cao looked at the shining knife in the other party's hand and immediately understood that the other party was here to assassinate Xu Yingying.

Ye Cao loudly reminded Xu Yingying, "My Lord, wake up! There is an assassin!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Yingying, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, immediately opened her eyes and looked at the assassin who was approaching her with a sharp knife.

Xu Yingying rolled to the side and avoided the assassin's knife.

Then he swiftly turned over and kicked the assassin in the back.

But after several rounds of fighting, Xu Yingying deeply realized that she was no match for the assassin with her kung fu skills. Several times the assassin's sword just grazed the edge of Xu Yingying's body.

If there were a little more, it would have directly pierced Xu Yingying's body.

"Sir, run! Run to Master Li's room."

"Mr. Li is very skilled in martial arts. Let Mr. Li fight him."

Camellia, who was standing by, saw that Xu Yingying couldn't beat the assassin and shouted at her to remind her.

Ye Cao was even more considerate and helped Xu Yingying open the door of the room.

Seeing this, Xu Yingying ran out without hesitation and went straight to Li Siqi's room.

Li Siqi's room was not far from Xu Yingying, just next to her.

"Boom boom boom——"

Xu Yingying knocked on the door of Li Siqi's room very hard.

"Open the door! It's me."

Li Siqi, who was about to go to sleep, was stunned when he heard Xu Yingying's words. He was in a dilemma whether he should open the door for Xu Yingying.

After all, there are differences between men and women, and Li Siqi was still reluctant to open the door.

But Xu Yingying continued to knock on the door.

"Boom boom boom——"

Xu Yingying's anxious voice came from outside the door, "Open the door quickly."

Li Siqi hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to open the door. He wanted to see what Xu Yingying was doing by not sleeping so late.

As soon as Li Siqi opened the door, Xu Yingying quickly entered the room.

At the same time, an assassin in black clothes held a knife straight to Li Siqi's face.

Li Siqi kicked the other person without thinking, and the noise of kicking the assassin down immediately attracted the guards living in other rooms.

When they saw someone dared to attack Li Siqi, they rushed out and tied up the assassin in a few seconds.

Seeing this, Xu Yingying patted her chest in shock, and then couldn't help cursing: "Quick, tell me who is behind you. Who asked you to assassinate me?"

When the assassin heard Xu Yingying's words, he glared at her fiercely, and then said word by word: "Don't even think about it."

After saying this, he tilted his head and fell down, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"Ninth Prince, he bit his tongue and committed suicide." The guard nearby reported to Li Siqi after checking.

Li Siqi frowned slightly when he heard this, "Search his body and see if you can find anything."

"Yes, Ninth Prince."

The guard searched the assassin's body thoroughly and actually found something.

After a while, he walked up to Li Siqi holding a wooden token and said, "Reporting to the Ninth Prince, I found a token on him."

Li Siqi took the token and recognized it at a glance as a token unique to the talents in Li Siming's mansion.

"Whose token is this? Do you know?" Xu Yingying came over and asked curiously.

Li Siqi rolled his eyes at her and said, "This is the token of the Crown Prince Li Siming's residence. It was because of your words during the day that Li Siming was pissed off. He couldn't wait to come and kill you at night."

Xu Yingying widened her eyes in surprise after hearing this. "Ah? He's so quick! He's really a vengeful villain."

Xu Yingying couldn't help but shrink her neck when she thought of the several times the assassin's knife almost stabbed her.

If the assassin tried to kill her again like he did just now, what would she do if she couldn't handle it?

When she thought of this, Xu Yingying felt that this was not possible. She couldn't sleep alone and she had to send someone to protect herself.
