Speeding all the way, it’s still the suburbs.

"aunt..."

"Don't be afraid, Chen'er. Your aunt is here. I'll take you to hunt pheasants later." Su Muxi hugged the little person tightly in her arms. She couldn't let Su Chen leave in fear.

Su Muxi first took him to the woods outside the city to hunt pheasants. She felt happy when she saw Chen'er taking the small bow and arrow she made and imitating her.

With her help, Su Chen finally hunted a pheasant.

"Aunt, Aunt, look at me, am I really that powerful?"

"Chen'er is awesome," Su Muxi praised him, then leaned over to pick him up, put him on her shoulders, and asked him to sit down. "Chen'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid at any time, hold the bow and arrow tightly in your hand."

After saying that, she picked up an arrow, swung it and shot it. The arrow flew away with a gust of wind, passed through layers of obstacles, and nailed a bird to a tree.

"Aunt is great, Aunt is great."

Su Muxi patted his little feet and took him over.

The two hunted some pheasants in the woods. Su Chen held the pheasant he had hunted in one hand and the bird Su Muxi had hunted in the other. "Aunt, can I be as good as you in the future?"

"As long as you practice hard, you will be better than your aunt. When I was your age, I couldn't hunt pheasants!"

Chen Er was happy, but pouted after a while, "But mother said that my aunt is married and can't go to the northwest with us."

"Auntie can't go to the northwest, but she found a master for Chen'er who is better at archery than Auntie."

"really?"

"Of course it's true. His name is Su Yi. When you get to the northwest, you will study with him."

As soon as the two came out of the woods, Chen'er suddenly shouted, "Uncle, Uncle."

Su Muxi also saw it and wanted to cover Su Chen's mouth, but it was too late. She could only step forward and greet him, "Prince An."

Su Chen ran forward and said, "Uncle, look, this is the pheasant I hunted, and this is the bird my aunt hunted."

An Yutang glanced at the chirping bird and patted his head, "Chen'er is awesome, and the princess is amazing too."

The latter sentence was obviously directed at Su Muxi.

Su Muxi chuckled, "Prince, why are you here?"

He glanced at Su Chen and said, "There's something fishy about the assassination. I came over here to see if there are any clues."

"What's the matter? Tell me about it."

"Aunt, uncle, I want to eat roast chicken."

Su Muxi was not annoyed when the topic was interrupted, "Auntie will help you make roast chicken, I'm afraid the prince will have to help."

An Yutang suppressed his thoughts and bent down to pick up the pheasant. "Then I'll go kill the chicken."

"Go collect some firewood! Don't get your clothes dirty."

An Yutang looked down at his light blue clothes and said helplessly, "Then I'll go collect firewood."

The two of them were busy with their own things, and Chen'er was jumping back and forth.

The pheasant was quickly put up on the rack, with a crackling sound.

The two of them started talking about the topic again.

An Yutang said, "Third brother, when you reported the case, you brought a token with you, saying that you found someone following you halfway and you snatched it from that person."

"Indeed." With the memories of her previous life, she naturally knew that Xiao Yunjin had sent someone to follow her. She only intercepted the token and deliberately let the person go. She wanted Xiao Yunjin to panic and thus reveal his flaws.

"I checked the token and found Wanxiang Tower. It happened that the incident between the nephew of Prince Huaiyang and the second daughter of Marquis Jian'an happened that day. The owner of Wanxiang Tower hanged himself to death."

She knew all of this. After all, she had contributed to the construction of Wanxiang Tower. In her previous life, she was the second daughter of Marquis Jian'an and was raped by the nephew of Prince Huaiyang. This woman was very strong-willed. On her wedding day, she poisoned the wedding banquet, and no one who attended the banquet was spared.

Most of the ministers in the court were poisoned to death, the emperor fell seriously ill, the foundation of Dayun Dynasty was unstable, the northwestern barbarians took advantage of the chaos to attack the city, and Yong'an Hou rose again. Xiao Yunjin went to the battlefield with her. The war lasted for five years. Her father and brother died in the battle, and Xiao Yunjin returned with glory.

It can be said that this woman almost overthrew the Dayun Dynasty with her own strength, or it can be said that all this was a strategy designed by Xiao Yunjin, the first step in his seizure of power.

Her father and brother were about to go to the northwest, so how could she let this happen again? So she took action. That night, she killed the person who passed the message to Xiao Yunjin, sneaked into Wanxiang Tower at night, and rescued the unconscious second daughter of Marquis Jian'an. She saw An Yutang arriving in the dark, and then returned to Marquis Yong'an's Mansion.

"What do you mean by strange?"

She was too calm, and An Yutang could not see anything unusual in her expression. The smoke and fire were sparse, as if a layer of fog had covered her body, making it difficult to see clearly. He suppressed his doubts and recounted his experience of going to Wanxiang Tower that day.

"If I had arrived a minute later, the matter of the second daughter of the Marquis of Jian'an would have been exposed. From the token to Wanxiang Tower, to the fact that someone was saved, Princess, don't you think this is all too coincidental?"

An Yutang was testing her. Su Muxi was clear in her mind. She lowered her head and turned the pheasant in her hand. "I don't care about the second daughter of Marquis Jian'an, nor do I care about coincidences. I only know that you are Chen'er's uncle. Naturally, I have to ask you to investigate this matter. I don't trust others."

This overbearing temperament has not changed. "This is what I want to say. I carefully examined the bodies of the assassins. Their identities are a mystery, but the owner of the token can be found out. It is a killer organization. They are lurking in Wanxiang Tower. I suspect that the person who is following you may not be in the same group as the one who assassinated Chen'er. You have to be careful."

No contact? Or, Xiao Yunjin had multiple bargaining chips in his hand. "I have arranged someone for Chen'er, so you can rest assured for now."

"What about you? You left yourself in the capital and even sent away Tuanzi Yuanzi."

"No one in the capital can hurt me." Su Muxi said this confidently. Although her current strength cannot be compared with her heyday in the previous life, it is still no problem for her to deal with these villains.

"You're not afraid of biting your tongue when you say that. I almost drowned you in the pond last time." Zhao Siyu came out from the side, sat aside, and said in a familiar manner, "When can we eat?"

Su Muxi curled her lips and smiled, "I'm already practicing. Next time, you won't even have the chance to hurt me."

"That's not necessarily true. I'm not the only one who can swim."

Su Muxi tore off a chicken leg and gave it to her, "What else can you do?"

"Wow, it's so hot, so hot. I know a lot, such as making..." The meat in my mouth suddenly lost its fragrance, "You are trying to trick me."
