Lu Xingzhi stared at Shi Wanwan with his dark eyes wide open and said, "If you insist on doing this, I will never forgive you even if you kneel before me!"

Shi Wanwan raised her hand and slapped him across the face: "You're still dreaming! This princess will help you wake up."

Lu Xingzhi: “!!!!”

Shi Wanwan didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore and looked at Lu Xingzhi's friends: "What you took from me, do I have to come and get it myself, or do you want to return it voluntarily?"

When everyone saw how Shi Wanwan treated Lu Xingzhi, they would probably be even more rude to them.

The things they had with them were returned immediately, and Shi Wanwan gave them three days to deliver the things they didn't have to the princess's mansion.

The group of people who were originally arrogant and domineering have now all become quails with their necks tucked in.

At this time, Xie Xuanzhi had already woken up. He saw that Shi Wanwan had only brought Shen Yi with her, but she managed to subdue a group of people.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly and he slowly stood up.

When Shi Wanwan saw him wake up, she asked, "Your Highness, are you feeling better?"

He nodded slightly: "The princess is really surprising."

Every time the poison took effect, it would take him at least two or three days to wake up, but this time he woke up in just a quarter of an hour.

He looked at the bloodstains on his fingers, his eyes thoughtful.

It seems that he still underestimated Shi Wanwan. Her medical skills were much better than he expected.

Lu Xingzhi couldn't accept that Shi Wanwan, who had always obeyed him, had become like this. Was her change due to her falling in love with someone else?

He couldn't help but curse, "Shi Wanwan, we haven't broken off our engagement yet, and you're already being affectionate with another man. How can you be so disgusting?"

At this moment, the patrolling city guards came over. Shi Wanwan showed the Princess Mansion token and shouted for help: "Help! Someone is trying to kill me!"

Lu Xingzhi, who was beaten to a bloody pulp by her, said: "..."

She wouldn't beat someone up and then frame him, would she?

It turns out he was overthinking.

As the patrolling city guards came over, Shi Wanwan pointed behind her and said, "I was ambushed there just now."

When the city patrol went over to take a look, they saw more than ten corpses lying there.

They were just doing a routine patrol and thought they were just fooling around when they saw them, but they didn't expect something serious to happen. They didn't dare to be careless and went to investigate immediately.

Because the people who were ambushed were Shi Wanwan and Xie Xuanzhi, both of whom had very high status, the city patrol guards did not dare to be careless and immediately dealt with the relevant matters.

Shi Wanwan and Xie Xuanzhi went to Jingzhao Prefecture together. When she left, she didn't look at Lu Xingzhi again.

However, when Xie Xuanzhi left, he glanced at Lu Xingzhi with a half-smile, and Lu Xingzhi's expression was extremely interesting.

At first, he didn't actually care who the man Shi Wanwan was leaning on was. He was simply furious.

When he found out that the man was Xie Xuanzhi, his mind was in a mess.

Everyone in the capital knows how powerful Xie Xuanzhi is, and he is someone Lu Xingzhi cannot afford to offend.

No matter how arrogant Lu Xingzhi was, he had to admit that Xie Xuanzhi was higher in status, more capable, more ruthless, and more skilled in martial arts than him...

Over the years, he had always treated Shi Wanwan as his private property, allowing him to bully her, calling her when he wanted and sending her away when he wanted.

She was still his money bag, and she would give him as much as she could, no matter how much he wanted.

Now she is no longer obsessed with him, no longer treats him well, and even hits him. He can't stand this gap.

He shouted to the patrolling guards, "Sir, the princess just robbed us, and we are all victims!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his friends immediately said, "That's right, the princess just robbed people on the road!"

The patrol leader was stunned for a moment. Shi Wanwan, who had already walked more than ten steps forward, smiled and said, "If that's the case, then we'll take them back for interrogation."

"This princess previously suspected that they were in cahoots with those men in black, otherwise they wouldn't have appeared so coincidentally."

Xie Xuanzhi also stopped and said slowly, "I have the same suspicion."

As soon as he said this, all of Lu Xingzhi's friends backed off.

If it was just Shi Wanwan, they could still throw dirty water on her, but if Xie Xuanzhi was added, they didn't dare to act rashly.

They hurriedly said, "It was just a misunderstanding. We just happened to be passing by."

"Yes, yes, it's just a misunderstanding."

But even so, they were all involved in the case and eventually went to Jingzhao Prefecture.

It happened that Shao Yin Qin Feihe was on duty today. As soon as he saw Shi Wanwan, he thought of the "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" that night, and his head was buzzing.

He was really afraid of Shi Wanwan's outrageous actions, and hoped that she would not cause trouble again today.

But he soon discovered that even if she didn't cause trouble today, this matter would still be a big one.

She was attacked when she left the Imperial College, and Xie Xuanzhi and the candidates waiting for the examination results were also involved, which made him very worried.

Shi Wanwan cooperated very well and finished taking notes. She then said, "This is what happened. I have some guesses about the murderer."

Qin Feihe asked, "Who do you think the murderer is?"

Shi Wanwan pointed at Lu Xingzhi and said, "It's him."

Lu Xingzhi angrily shouted, "Shi Wanwan, that's enough! If you continue to slander me, I'll break off the engagement with you!"

Shi Wanwan sniffed, her peach blossom eyes filled with mist, and she looked pitiful. "Master Qin, did you hear that?"

Even though Qin Feihe knew that Shi Wanwan was no good, he subconsciously softened his heart when he saw her expression and asked, "Does the princess have any evidence?"

Shi Wanwan nodded and took out the list with Lu Xingzhi's fingerprint from her bosom: "This is the evidence."

Qin Feihe's eyes were full of confusion, but he still reached out to take it. He was stunned when he saw the silver, money and other things listed on it.

Do young people nowadays spend so much money on dating?

Shi Wanwan continued, "Lu Xingzhi and I were once granted marriage by His Majesty, so we are already engaged."

"But Lu Xingzhi doesn't have me in his heart and he hates her very much."

"I was completely obsessed with him, obeyed his every word, and spent all my wealth trying to please him."

Qin Feihe had heard of this before and nodded slightly: "And then?"

Shi Wanwan replied, "A few days ago, Jiang Rongrong and I fell into the water at the same time. Lu Xingzhi saved Jiang Rongrong and abandoned me in the lake."

"After I was rescued by a passerby, he not only did not offer any words of comfort, but also spoke harshly to me."

"Since then, I have lost all hope in him and have had some conflicts with him."

"My Lord also heard it just now. He wants to break off the engagement with me."

When Lu Xingzhi heard her say this, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Xie Xuanzhi leaned back in his chair and watched the show. Based on his experience, Shi Wanwan was about to use her ultimate move.

As expected, the next moment, Shi Wanwan's eyes flushed as she spoke, "Over the years, I've practically emptied the entire Princess Mansion to curry favor with Lu Xingzhi. The money involved is at least over 100,000 taels."

"My marriage to Lu Xingzhi was granted by His Majesty. He cannot break off the engagement, nor is he willing to return the money."

"The best way is to kill me. That way, he won't have to break off the engagement or pay back the money."

"So his motive for killing me is completely established. He is the murderer!"
