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

I'd better come back next time when I'm fully prepared!

Xu Yingying left Yan Mansion somewhat disappointed.

Li Siqi, who was following behind her, was a little puzzled when he saw this. He didn't understand why Xu Yingying climbed over the wall to Yan Mansion in the middle of the night just to hide outside the yard and take a look?

This is too strange!

Although he didn't know what happened, Li Siqi still followed Xu Yingying silently to see what she was going to do next.

Xu Yingying returned to Li Siqi's mansion, and when she jumped down from the wall with a beautiful somersault, she suddenly bumped into someone.

Xu Yingying looked up.

Good guy!

The other person was actually wearing all black. Isn't he an assassin?

Obviously, the other party also saw her.

In fact, the man in black was Li Siming's subordinate, who came to investigate the woman wearing Li Siqi's clothes that they saw during the day.

I didn't expect to meet him here by chance.

Xu Yingying was the first to react and swung her fist at the other party without hesitation.

The man in black reacted immediately and moved his body slightly to the side to avoid Xu Yingying's attack.

Just like that, the two sides immediately started fighting each other.

Although Xu Yingying was still somewhat skilled, she was a woman after all, and after a few rounds, she began to feel a little tired.

Xu Yingying gritted her teeth and held on for a few moments, but soon her body was covered with wounds.

Li Siqi, who was hiding in the dark, saw that Xu Yingying's arm was bleeding after being hit by the man in black, and he could no longer hold back.

Li Siqi jumped out from the darkness, took out his sword and stabbed the man in black.

The man in black was not paying attention and was stabbed in the right arm by Li Siqi.

In an instant, the opponent's arm began to bleed profusely.

The man in black saw that the situation was not right, so he left immediately.

He casually threw a smoke bomb from his sleeve, and then slipped away quietly when Li Siqi and the others were not paying attention.

After seeing the assassin leave, Xu Yingying shook her head helplessly, then turned to look at Li Siqi behind her and asked, "Why did you suddenly jump out? Are you following me?"

"Me! Of course I am. I am worried about your personal safety. With your mediocre skills, you want to go to Yan Qingyin's mansion to take a look. Aren't you afraid that he has set up a trap for you in the mansion?"

Li Siqi looked at Xu Yingying seriously.

After hearing these words, Xu Yingying's ears turned red and her heart was pounding like a little deer that had just learned to walk was running around in her body.

He actually worried about me!

Does this mean...

"Hmph, you just look down on me." Xu Yingying took a step back to distance herself from Li Siqi, then said with forced calmness.

After saying that, she walked towards her room without looking back.

After returning to the room, Xu Yingying did not rush to bed to rest, but sat beside the table to adjust her breathing and tried to calm herself down.

On the other hand, Li Siqi felt a little puzzled because Xu Yingying ran away without saying a word.

But he still came to find Xu Yingying again. He wanted to find out why Xu Yingying secretly went to Li's house alone in the middle of the night, so he specially visited Xu Yingying.

"Boom boom boom——"

Someone knocked on Xu Yingying's door again.

"Are you asleep?" Li Siqi's voice came from outside the door.

Xu Yingying said nothing.

There was still a persistent knock on the door from outside.

"Boom boom boom——"

Xu Yingying hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to open the door.

"what happened?"

"come in!"

Li Siqi hesitated for a moment, then stepped into the room.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yingying asked.

"Uh...actually, I just wanted to ask you why you wanted to go to Yan Qingyin's mansion tonight." Li Siqi thought for a while and said.

Seeing that Li Siqi was determined to get to the bottom of the matter, Xu Yingying finally said helplessly, "I guess that the fact that Yang Huiwen was possessed by a ghost today is most likely related to Yan Qingyin, and I also saw that female ghost next to Yan Qingyin when we were catching that black-hearted profiteer that day."

When Li Siqi heard this, he suddenly realized something. "So that's how it is. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I would have arranged it for you."

"You'll arrange it for me?"

"How do you plan to arrange it?" Xu Yingying's eyes flashed with surprise.

"I will just take you to visit Yan Qingyin's mansion tomorrow. As a prince, do I need any reason to visit a minister's home? Just go if you want to." Li Siqi said neatly.

Xu Yingying: "Uh..."

But when she thought about it, it seemed to be true!

"All right!"

Xu Yingying didn't expect that the problem that had troubled her for so long was solved by Li Siqi in one go.

"It's getting late, so you should go to bed early! I'll call you at Yan Qingyin's mansion tomorrow." Li Siqi made a gesture to leave.

"Okay, you too, go to bed early!"

……

the next day.

Early in the morning, Li Siqi brought Xu Yingying to Yan Qingyin's residence.

When the servant came to report, Yan Qingyin was drinking tea in the hall.

"Sir, there are two people outside who claim to be the Ninth Prince and Lord Xu and are looking for you." The servant reported to Yan Qingyin.

"Ninth Prince?"

"What are they here for?" Yan Qingyin was a little surprised after hearing this.

But after all, the other party is a prince and he is a minister, so no matter what Li Siqi wants, he must be considerate in etiquette.

Yan Qingyin walked out immediately and bowed respectfully when he saw Li Siqi.

"Your humble servant greets the Ninth Prince. I wonder why the Ninth Prince came here today?"

Li Siqi smiled and said, "I heard that Lord Yan is very busy with official duties. I came to visit him without prior notice. I wonder if I have disturbed Lord Yan's schedule."

"No, it is my honor that the Ninth Prince has come to see me."

"Don't be nervous, Lord Yan. It's nothing. I just missed you so I came to see you." Li Siqi said with a smile.

"Oh, it's my honor. Please come in." Yan Qingyin made a "please" gesture to Li Siqi and Xu Yingying.

Li Siqi and Xu Yingying did not hesitate to walk in. After all, their original purpose of coming here was to go in and take a look.

Xu Yingying also clearly saw the scene inside the Yan Mansion. There were many wandering ghosts scattered in every corner of the Yan Mansion.

The number is so large that it's scary. If you see it, you will definitely sigh that this is not a place where people live. It is most likely a ghost house.

Perhaps it was because Xu Yingying's eyes were too hot, and the ghosts seemed to feel that she could see them, so the ghosts ran to Xu Yingying and made faces or did other things to find Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying pretended that she couldn't see the other person, because there were too many female ghosts here. If the other party found out that she could see them, she would definitely not be able to defeat them. At that time, maybe neither she nor Li Siqi would be able to walk out safely.
