Qin Rubing ordered his men with a gloomy face to carry the body away, then turned and walked into Aunt Liu's room, signaling others to guard the door and not allow anyone to approach.

The room was filled with a disgusting smell of blood, and Aunt Liu was huddled in the corner, shivering, her face as pale as paper, her eyes full of fear and despair.

"Aunt Liu, I hope you can answer my questions honestly." Qin Rubing said coldly.

Aunt Liu was so frightened that she almost collapsed to the ground. She trembled and said, "Miss, please spare my life! Please let me go!"

"As long as you tell me everything you know, your life will be safe."

Aunt Liu tremblingly confessed everything she knew.

It turned out to be Qin Yurou’s doing!

She had been confined to her own yard and couldn't go out, yet she was able to cause such a big trouble.

Aunt Liu confessed that a few days ago, when she went to deliver food to the second young lady, the second young lady said she wanted to ask her to do something for her and could give her one hundred taels of silver.

She didn't dare to accept it at first, but the second lady said, "I'm not asking you to kill anyone with a knife, you just need to say a few words."

"say what?"

She asked puzzledly.

Qin Yurou asked Zhu'er to bring over a few wild grasses, "This is the grass. Take a look and remember what it looks like."

Aunt Liu took a look and said carefully, "I'll remember it."

"If you see this kind of grass again, just say it's the common five-fingered ginseng in the south. Remember that?"

"I've got it." Aunt Liu didn't understand.

"I'll give you fifty taels first. No matter if you succeed or not, as long as you say what you need to say, I'll give you the remaining fifty taels."

Aunt Liu nodded in agreement and reached out to take the small cloth bag containing fifty taels of silver.

In this way, she waited anxiously, and time seemed to be particularly long.

Finally, on the third day, she sat quietly in the kitchen as usual. Just when she was feeling a little discouraged, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of her. Yes, it was Juhua!

She was so excited that she almost screamed out loud, but she suppressed her inner impulse, took a deep breath, pretended to be calm and watched the other person walk in.

When Juhua held up the weeds and asked her, she was extremely nervous, but still said what the Second Miss taught her.

Afterwards, she was in a state of extreme unrest, as if countless ants were gnawing at her heart, making it impossible for her to calm down.

Just when she was about to collapse from this anxiety, Zhuxiang suddenly appeared in front of her.

When she learned that Juhua was poisoned, she felt as if the sky was falling.

She could no longer sit still and immediately ran to the second young lady to report the news.

The purpose was to take the remaining fifty taels of silver and then run away quickly after daybreak.

Who would have thought that someone would come to kill people in the middle of the night to silence them.

If Zhuxiang hadn't drugged her in advance and quietly taken her away and hid her under the cover of night, she would probably have died by now!

If she wanted to escape from the tiger's mouth by herself, it would be harder than climbing to the sky. Fortunately, with Zhuxiang's secret help, she escaped and saved half her life.

Aunt Liu told everything she knew without holding back.

After asking the question, Qin Rubing glanced coldly inside the room, then turned around and left the room without hesitation.

She walked quickly to the yard and found Yoruji who was waiting for orders.

Ye Er came forward respectfully and said, "What do you want, young lady?"

Qin Rubing whispered, "Arrange for her to leave the mansion immediately and find a safe place to hide. It would be best to send her to a farm in the countryside to make sure no one can find her."

Her voice was firm and decisive, revealing an unquestionable majesty.

Ye Er nodded slightly, took quick action, began to arrange relevant matters, and soon took Aunt Liu away.

The night is deep and everything is silent.

Ye Yi came to Qin Rubing quietly and reported in a low voice: "Miss, I have searched and did not find any valuable clues on the three assassins." His tone was filled with helplessness and frustration.

Qin Rubing frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. Who were these three assassins? Why did they suddenly appear here? What was their purpose?

After a moment of silence, she slowly said, "Well, in that case, when daybreak comes, you will go to Jingzhao Prefecture and report this matter to the government, and let them handle it."

Ye nodded in agreement and turned to leave.

Watching Ye Yi's figure gradually disappearing into the darkness, Qin Rubing couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in her heart. Her intuition told her that this matter might not be that simple, and Qin Yurou didn't have the ability to make such a big conspiracy...

Prince's Mansion.

Chu Tianxing lay quietly on the spacious and soft bed, staring at the ceiling, his thoughts surging like the tide.

Although his body was exhausted, his brain was still extremely active and he had no desire to sleep.

He frowned slightly, thinking about what had happened recently. Those seemingly insignificant details kept popping up in his mind, making him feel a little confused and uneasy.

There was a sudden hurried knock on the door.

Li Yong sent a total of four assassins to kill Aunt Liu tonight to silence her.

In addition to the three masked men in black who entered the General's Mansion, there was another one hiding on the roof of a civilian house outside the General's Mansion. His main task was to provide support.

He watched his three accomplices walk into the yard and then disappear without a trace, and he couldn't help but have a bad feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, not long after, a blazing torch suddenly lit up in the yard, and the flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire night sky. Then, he saw a group of figures hurriedly coming in and out, obviously there was an emergency.

His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. With years of experience, he immediately realized that the identities of these three accomplices must have been exposed.

Without hesitation, he turned around and ran back to the Prince's Mansion to report the news.

Li Yong immediately reported the situation to Chu Tianxing.

Chu Tianxing was shocked and sat up suddenly. How could he fail again?

Now he can’t even kill the cook in the general’s mansion?

He suddenly remembered Qin Yurou's note:

"Qin Rubing is too evil. If he is not eliminated soon, he will become a big problem."

He suddenly realized that he had underestimated Qin Rubing for so long.

Qin Rubing not only possesses extraordinary strength, but also excels in wisdom and strategy, and has repeatedly escaped danger.

It can be said that Qin Rubing has become Chu Tiancheng's most capable assistant. With her assistance, Chu Tiancheng is even more powerful.

This judgment scared Chu Tianxing.

This is no small matter.

He immediately notified Li Yong and quickly summoned all his advisers as there was an important matter to discuss.
