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

But Zhao Shaoyuan didn't buy it. "Miss Xu, I think you have the wrong idea. The Imperial Concubine is my master. How can I betray my master? Miss Xu, you should just give up on this idea."

"So, what are you going to do with us?" Seeing that Zhao Shaoyuan was unmoved, Xu Yingying simply gave up this approach.

“Of course, made into human meat buns. It’s obvious that Miss Xu and His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince have been living a life of luxury for a long time. I think their meat is very fresh and delicious. They should be delicious when made into buns.” Zhao Shaoyuan is a bit perverted.

After Zhao Shaoyuan finished speaking, he was too lazy to pay attention to what Xu Yingying had to say. He turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare the dismemberment tools.

Seeing that Zhao Shaoyuan was no longer watching over her, Xu Yingying quietly called out to Camellia, "Camellia, Camellia, help me."

When Camellia appeared, she saw Xu Yingying and Li Siqi tied up and unable to break free.

"Oh my god, what happened to you? Were you ambushed?"

"Let's not talk about this for now. Go to the kitchen and keep an eye on that crazy woman. Make some trouble for her and buy us some time." Xu Yingying whispered.

Camellia also knew the seriousness of the matter, so she obediently stared at Zhao Shaoyuan. Not long after, Xu Yingying heard some clanging sounds coming from the kitchen. It seemed that something had been knocked over.

What followed was Zhao Shaoyuan's low curse. Taking this opportunity, Xu Yingying quickly moved to the side, grabbed a small stone on the ground and handed it to Li Siqi, "Your Highness, can you use this to break the rope?"

Li Siqi glanced at the stone and nodded, "Give me some time, it should be quick."

After saying that, Li Siqi took action and used a stone to grind the rope on his wrist bit by bit. Fortunately, the quality of the rope was poor and it broke into two pieces soon.

After freeing his hands, Li Siqi quickly untied the two of them. Seeing that Zhao Shaoyuan was still tidying up things in the kitchen, Li Siqi quickly took Xu Yingying away.

It was just that not long after the two of them left, Zhao Shaoyuan's voice was heard from inside the house, "Where are those two people? Why did they run away! Quick, chase them!"

You can tell from the voice that Zhao Shaoyuan is very angry. In order to kill Li Siqi and Xu Yingying, the Imperial Concubine not only sent Zhao Shaoyuan alone, but also sent several skilled guards around the house.

Hearing the sound, Xu Yingying thought to herself that it was not good, "Hurry up, or we'll be caught up."

"Hold on to me." Li Siqi said these words lightly and quickened his pace.

But before they had walked far, Li Siqi suddenly stopped. Xu Yingying was a little confused, but when she saw Li Siqi's face, she knew why. Li Siqi's face was very ugly, even a little scary. His face was extremely pale, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Xu Yingying looked up at the sky. The moon had already climbed out from behind the clouds. It was a full moon. Feeling Li Siqi's pulse, Xu Yingying suddenly felt desperate. Li Siqi's cold poison had taken effect.

"Don't worry about me, just go!" Li Siqi also knew how bad her current situation was. She wanted to push Xu Yingying away and let her go first, but Xu Yingying did not let go of Li Siqi's wrist.

"What are you talking about? There's no way I'm going to abandon you. Just hold on a little longer and don't really faint. I'll take you away."

Xu Yingying gritted her teeth, supported most of Li Siqi's weight, and walked forward with difficulty.

We are still quite close to Zhao Shaoyuan's house. If we stay where we are, we will be found soon.

Xu Yingying looked around, gritted her teeth, determined the direction, and led Li Siqi north.

Fortunately, there was a river not far to the north. If Zhao Shaoyuan really caught up with them, they could sneak away through the river. What's more, there were bushes almost half a person's height around them, which made it easy to hide their bodies.

Xu Yingying was very satisfied with the environment. Li Siqi was almost unconscious at this time. Xu Yingying helped him sit down against the tree trunk. Only then did she realize that Li Siqi was extremely cold.

The whole person was like an ice cube, emitting cold air. Xu Yingying did not dare to neglect it. She did not have any gold needles on her body, so she had no way to help Li Siqi relieve the pain. She could only hug Li Siqi tightly and protect him with her body temperature bit by bit.

But Xu Yingying was also very sleepy, and she slowly fell asleep just hugging Li Siqi.

The two of them hugged each other all night, and Li Siqi's cold poison gradually faded away, and his mind slowly returned.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Xu Yingying sleeping soundly in his arms, but her clothes seemed a little messy. Seeing this, Li Siqi felt uncomfortable all over and wanted to pull Xu Yingying off him, but accidentally woke her up.

Li Siqi saw Xu Yingying wake up and asked, "But did I wake you up?"

Xu Yingying gathered her clothes casually, yawned, and waved her hands, "It's okay, are you feeling better? You had a cold attack last night, and I was scared to death. Fortunately, you are fine now."

"Were you the one who dragged me here last night?" Li Siqi looked around, a little surprised.

"What else can we do? We can't just leave you there alone. Fortunately, Zhao Shaoyuan didn't follow us, otherwise we would both have died there last night." Xu Yingying rolled her eyes at Li Siqi, as if she was looking at a mentally retarded person.

Li Siqi did not argue, he stood up and stretched his muscles, "Are you okay? We can't stay here for long, let's go back to our place first."

Xu Yingying didn't comment. After a good night's sleep, she felt much better.

Fortunately, the two did not run into Zhao Shaoyuan on their way back. The first thing they did when they returned to the courtyard was to meet their men. If Zhao Shaoyuan played dirty, then don't blame Li Siqi for being rude to her.

Seeing Li Siqi and Zhao Shaoyuan coming back in a mess, the guards were extremely surprised and surrounded them.

"Come on, several people, capture Zhao Shaoyuan alive, and do it quickly." Li Siqi's face turned grim as he pointed to a direction to the guards.

The guards moved very quickly, not daring to carry anyone with them. Soon, Zhao Shaoyuan was brought in front of Li Siqi. As for the other people under Zhao Shaoyuan's command, they had all been beaten to death.

Zhao Shaoyuan was taken to kneel in front of Li Siqi. Only then did Xu Yingying carefully observe Zhao Shaoyuan's appearance.

What surprised Xu Yingying was that there were so many ghosts following Zhao Shaoyuan. If an ordinary person was haunted by so many ghosts, he would have been killed long ago. But Zhao Shaoyuan was still alive and well, which must be because he had some special skills.

Li Siqi did not expect that Zhao Shaoyuan did not escape, but stayed in the room, and was caught by the people sent by Li Siqi.

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, I made a mistake and fell into your hands. In this case, you can kill me or chop me up, whatever you want."
