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

"Hehehe." Xu Yingying looked at Li Siqi with a flattering smile on her face.

"How about I sleep in the same room with you tonight?" Xu Yingying said tentatively.

When Li Siqi heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise, "What are you talking about?"

"I can sleep on the floor." Xu Yingying said with a grin.

Without giving Li Siqi a chance to refuse, she just made a bed on the floor and lay down.

Li Siqi looked at Xu Yingying who closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep and suddenly showed a helpless expression.

It's getting late.

Forget it, just indulge her for this night.

Li Siqi turned around and lay down on the bed.

When Xu Yingying heard Li Siqi's movement, she immediately smiled triumphantly.

In this way, because of Li Siqi, Xu Yingying slept especially soundly.

the next day.

When everyone sat downstairs and started to enjoy breakfast, the appearance of an uninvited guest broke the morning tranquility.

"Oh, it looks like everyone had a good time last night! They even had the leisure to enjoy breakfast here."

A sarcastic voice appeared in everyone's ears, and then a person who made everyone present so angry appeared - Li Siming.

When Li Siming saw that Xu Yingying and Li Siqi were unharmed, he suddenly became unhappy.

Xu Yingying took in Li Siming's expression, and couldn't help but sneer, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. We have food and drink, so we are naturally living a good life."

"Your Highness, don't you have anything to do so early in the morning? It's really thoughtful of you to come so early to ask about how we spent yesterday."

Li Siming was actually quite angry when he heard Xu Yingying dare to mock him, but he pretended to be calm on the surface and said, "Nothing, I just care about you guys."

In fact, Li Siqi had originally planned to come early in the morning to collect the bodies of Xu Yingying and Li Siqi, but he did not expect that not only were the two of them fine, but they were also standing in front of him in high spirits.

"I don't know where my ninth brother has been these days. Look at him, he has lost weight. He must have worked so hard."

Li Siming changed his usual tit-for-tat attitude and started to care about Li Siqi.

Xu Yingying knew at a glance that the other party must have come here with a purpose today. As the saying goes, "The weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken with no good intentions."

Li Siqi said calmly: "It's nothing, I just went out for a walk to relax, I guess it's because of the sun!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Ninth Brother. As your elder brother, I have to offer you a toast."

"And Lord Xu, you have to toast me as well."

As Li Siming spoke, he picked up the teapot on the table and thoughtfully poured tea for Xu Yingying and the others.

Just when Li Siqi was about to finish pouring the tea, he dipped his little finger into the tea while no one was paying attention.

Li Siming thought he had done everything perfectly, but he didn't expect that all his actions could not escape the sharp eyes of Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying kicked Li Siqi under the table, then shook her head slightly at him.

After so many days of getting along, Li Siqi instantly understood what Xu Yingying meant.

Li Siqi did not take the cup from Li Siming, and said calmly: "Thank you for your kindness, brother. I am sorry that I am full now and cannot drink anything."

A look of disappointment appeared on Li Siming's face, then he turned and looked at Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying also tacitly said the same thing, "Thank you, Your Highness. I am full and don't want to drink tea."

Li Siming's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he compromised, "Okay! Then the prince has something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Li Siming turned away.

After Li Siming left, Xu Yingying couldn't bear it anymore.

"This Li Siming is too shameless. He tried to assassinate us last night but failed and now he deliberately tampered with our tea. He is trying every possible way to kill me!"

Xu Yingying cursed angrily.

Li Siqi, who was standing by, heard the sound, picked up the cup of tea that Li Siming had poured, and poured it on the ground.

"Zizi-"

Suddenly, a cloud of black smoke emerged from the ground.

The originally good ground began to become uneven, which was enough to prove that a highly corrosive poison had been added to the tea.

Li Siqi became very angry when he saw this. How much must she wish him death!

"Why don't you come back with me to live in my mansion? Otherwise, the crown prince will come to harass you every day. We can dodge it once or twice, but who can guarantee that we can dodge his despicable means every time?"

Li Siqi looked at Xu Yingying and said very seriously.

After hearing this, Xu Yingying was slightly stunned, and then she agreed without hesitation, "Okay."

"Then go pack your things!" Li Siqi said.

Xu Yingying nodded and walked into her room.

Xu Yingying had planned to travel light this time, so she didn't bring many clothes with her. She packed everything in no time.

"Let's go!"

Li Siqi took Xu Yingying and got on the carriage, preparing to set off for his mansion.

The carriage moved slowly and the whole journey was exceptionally smooth.

Just when Xu Yingying relaxed her vigilance, the carriage suddenly shook violently.

Xu Yingying and Li Siqi in the carriage hurriedly grabbed the rack inside the carriage to steady themselves.

"Roar——" The horse seemed to be frightened by something and broke free from the reins uncontrollably.

After shaking for a while, the carriage finally calmed down.

Xu Yingying tidied her messy hair and walked out of the carriage, "What happened?"

"Your Excellency, the carriage was frightened for some unknown reason and broke free from the reins, so it became extremely bumpy. Please forgive me, Your Excellency and the Ninth Prince."

The coachman said to Li Siqi and Xu Yingying with a look of horror.

"It's okay. This prince will go and see what's going on." Li Siqi said lightly.

After saying that, he and Xu Yingying got off the carriage together.

As soon as Xu Yingying got off the carriage, she saw the plaque that she still remembered vividly - Friendly Inn.

Xu Yingying snorted coldly.

OK!

Enemy road is narrow.

At this time, the waiter of the Friendly Inn immediately came forward and enthusiastically tried to win over Xu Yingying and Li Siqi.

"Would you two like to be guests at our inn? Our inn provides food and accommodation. We have all the services you want."

Xu Yingying didn't say anything. She suspected that the breakdown of the carriage was most likely related to this store.

Li Siqi felt that the timing of the waiter's appearance was too coincidental.

"It's okay, let's wait and see." Li Siqi said lightly.

Xu Yingying searched around the carriage carefully and finally found a few scattered nails on the ground.

I guess the horse stepped on a nail and got hurt, so it went crazy and broke free from the reins.

It's really despicable. They will do anything to attract customers.
