After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

She gave Wen Yinyang a gentle smile that showed trust and gratitude.

"Thanks to Master Wen for telling me in time, I already have a plan in mind."

Seeing her confident look, Wen Yinyang felt relieved and said no more, but added: "I am relieved to know that Miss Cui has made arrangements. If the foreigner makes any unusual moves again, I will inform you immediately."

"If you need anything, just let me know." Cui Rongrong smiled. "I am very grateful that Master Wen took the risk to tell me all this. I can handle the rest."

Wen Yinyang lowered his eyes, with indescribable complex emotions surging in his heart.

He was fully aware of his current situation and knew there was very little he could do for Cui Rongrong. He felt powerless and couldn't help but blame himself.

Cui Rongrong once rescued him from the difficult situation at all costs, but she suffered criticism and even faced danger for it, and all he could do was to provide such insignificant help!

He took a deep breath, looked at Cui Rong firmly, and made a promise: "I will do my best to stop the Sixth Young Master and the foreigner from plotting against General Cui."

"Master Wen, there is no need to do this." Cui Rongrong politely rejected his kindness. "You are now firmly in the Sixth Master's position. You don't have to take risks for me. Losing his trust will have disastrous consequences for the Wen family."

"The Wen family can only enjoy peace and cannot withstand any more twists and turns."

Wen Yinyang was silent for a moment, the struggle and contradiction in his heart had not completely dissipated, "But I always remember Miss Cui's kindness, and hope to repay her."

Cui Rongrong chuckled, her voice warm.

"It's never too late to repay a favor. If I really need you, I'll find you."

It was late at night. Wen Yinyang looked at her, wanting to say something but stopping himself. Finally, he turned around silently and started his journey home.

Cui Rongrong watched his back gradually blend into the night, then looked away.

It's time to face the mysterious outsider in person.

After changing into a nightgown that was easy to move in, Cui Rong moved swiftly and headed straight for the most secretive inn in the city - Luoxianlou.

The waiter in the building understood what she meant with just a glance and quietly led her to the door of Jiang Zhen's room.

The door opened slightly, Jiang Zhen raised his head from the pile of information, their eyes met, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Miss Cui came to visit me late at night. Are you here to take care of my health, or do you have other intentions?"

“Although frequent use of insect therapy can cure diseases, it can also easily make those little guys restless. Over time, it may backfire on the body.”

Cui Rongrong's tone was gentle but firm, "I came here tonight because I hope that Master Jiang can take me to see the guest from the border. Some things must be done personally."

The poison in the body of my friend from the frontier has already taken effect. It's time to uncover this chess game, take the initiative to go to his door, and put an end to everything.

Jiang Zhen raised his eyebrows, his eyes flickering with amusement, "The Cui family's daughter is as sharp as an eagle. You've already seen through everything before I even opened my mouth."

"In comparison, I am more curious about how you knew such a secret matter? After all, he was poisoned within just two days, and the news was kept strictly secret." There was a hint of inquiry in Jiang Zhen's words.

Cui Rongrong smiled softly, her voice gentle but firm, "It was just a coincidence that I learned about it. At this moment, he is being tortured by the poison and is in excruciating pain. I guess he can't change his hiding place as frequently as usual. And you, Lord Jiang, have always been known for your accurate intelligence, so you must have locked onto his whereabouts."

"Indeed, everything is just as you said." Jiang Zhen nodded, and then began to organize the scattered documents on the desk with quick movements.

Then, he softly called over a secret guard in black and gave him a few brief instructions.

As he turned around, he smiled at Cui Rongrong, with a smile that was both calm and playful, "Since Miss Cui has asked for it herself, I will not refuse this 'invitation'. Tonight, let me accompany you on this journey."

The night was falling and the stars were shining brightly. Jiang Zhen walked in front with steady steps, while Cui Rong followed closely behind without any objection.

The two of them shuttled back and forth under the cover of night, and soon they stopped in front of a dilapidated courtyard.

The small courtyard stands alone in a remote place, with few and far-flung neighbors. Even if something happens here, it would be difficult for outsiders to notice.

Stepping into the courtyard, Cui Rongrong and Jiang Zhen looked at each other tacitly. Without saying anything more, Jiang Zhen stepped forward and gently pushed open the shaky wooden door.

Inside the house, the man from the frontier was suffering from the ruthless torture of the toxins in his body. He rolled over in pain on the bed, completely unaware of anyone approaching. It was not until the door creaked open that he suddenly woke up and realized the arrival of the uninvited guest.

"Who is it!" He endured the severe pain and managed to get up from the bed. He glanced sharply at the person who came, his brows furrowed, and his vigilance was evident in his words.

"Master Jiang of Luoxian Tower, how could you condescend to visit such a shabby place as mine?" He asked as he quietly slid his hand towards the dagger in his sleeve, ready to strike first if Jiang Zhen made any move.

Jiang Zhen smiled lightly, and said with a hint of ridicule, "You didn't notice it until I stood in front of you. It seems that the poison has penetrated into your bones. Even my footsteps failed to attract your attention. I'm afraid your martial arts skills are almost gone."

Upon hearing this, the border man's face changed slightly, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes, "How could I be poisoned? Do you know?!"

"The poison in you was given by me myself, how could I not know it?" Jiang Zhen's smile became brighter, but there was a sharpness in his words.

The frontiersman obviously did not expect such an answer. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Then he quickly glanced at the window with the corner of his eye, thinking about the possibility of escape. "I have no grudge against you, why did you do this to me?"

"Luoxianlou is not pursuing you without a purpose. Do you think that after offending the Sixth Prince, Luoxianlou can still escape unscathed? As far as I know, Luoxianlou is not stupid enough to confront the imperial court head-on."

At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind Jiang Zhen, interrupting their conversation, "It was my idea to target you, and I also instructed Jiang Louzhu to poison you."

Cui Rongrong slowly walked out from behind Jiang Zhen. When the border people saw this, their pupils suddenly shrank, full of disbelief, "How could you..."

However, just as he was about to turn around and flee, he was shocked to find that Cui Rong and Jiang Zhen acted almost at the same time, easily blocking all his retreat routes.

There are wolves in front and tigers behind. The ferocity on the frontier man's face became even more intense. He drew out a dagger and held it across his chest, his eyes fixed on Cui Rong with a cold look, "I really didn't expect that you would come to my door in person!"
