Liang Chongyue glanced at the information recorded on the panel and calculated the time. The effect of the truth pill should be over soon.

Liang Chongyue picked up the crossbow at hand and pointed it at Shentu Jue's face, which had turned pale after being hit by the corpse-dissolving water. Under his horrified gaze, he shot an arrow at his head.

The bows and crossbows were smeared with corpse-dissolving water, and soon Shentu Jue could not even make a whimpering sound.

"Host, didn't you originally plan to give Shen Tu Jue medicine, restore his memory, and then send him back? Now that he's dead, who are we going to send back?"

The system walked over to Liang Chongyue with a confused look on its face. Its big eyes narrowed in confusion, which made Liang Chongyue laugh.

"Without him, there's still Shentu Yu, twin brothers. If they dye their hair, who can still tell who's who?"

Liang Chongyue's gaze lingered on Shen Tu Jue's body, whose head had already turned into water, for a second, and he prepared to go up with the system.

Passing by the dead man on the shelf, Liang Chongyue did not forget to use the crossbow arrow coated with corpse-dissolving water to scratch the man's neck.

She has always been cautious in doing things. Not to mention living people, she would even have to stab the dead twice before she could be completely at ease.

The door of the secret prison was opened from the inside, and a strong smell of blood hit the face. Jing Suiyang and Liang Fang, who were waiting outside, immediately went to greet him when they saw His Highness coming up from downstairs.

"Wait another quarter of an hour before going back down. The sticky liquid inside can't be touched directly. Bring water down to rinse. As long as there is enough water, it will dissolve it."

As soon as Jing Sui Yang heard it, he knew that His Highness must have used the corpse-dissolving water down there. That small bottle had astonishing power.

Jing Suiyang turned around and gave a few instructions to the person who was following him. The person nodded and left with several guards guarding the secret cell.

"I've already given the order. It's getting late, Your Highness, you need to go back and rest. The Meridian Gate will open in two hours."

Liang Chongyue was not in a hurry to enter the palace, and instructed Jing Suiyang:

"There's no rush to enter the palace today. Let's go back to Changshengtian first."

After a tiring night, Liang Chongyue was extremely excited at this moment. It had been a long time since she had felt that all her original plans were rejected by her and everything had to start from scratch.

She was determined to get Langwa, so even if someone else did, the plan would still proceed as usual.

Liang Chongyue walked in front with the system, and Jing Suiyang and Liang Fang followed behind them.

Arriving at Changshengtian, Liang Chongyue went straight to take a shower and change clothes. The bloody smell on his body was really unpleasant.

Yun Ling had already made sure that the situation outside had calmed down. When she knew that His Highness had returned safely, she ordered someone to boil some hot water.

It was still a rose petal bath. Liang Chongyue sank his whole body into the water, holding his breath, concentrating, isolating himself from the outside sounds, his mind racing.

Liang Chongyue didn't emerge from the water until the oxygen in his chest was exhausted.

The water splashed onto the ground along with the petals.

Liang Chongyue leaned lazily against the bathtub, letting Yun Ling wash her hair.

Liang Chongyue opened the information about Shentu Jue on the panel and made some major changes to it. After hesitating for a moment, Liang Chongyue did not make any further changes to the part about Shentu Yu.

She wanted to train Shentu Yu and send him back to Langwa as soon as possible, using his face to stabilize the situation in Langwa.

It is impossible that Shentu Jue does not have any confidants staying in Langwa. The so-called high priest he mentioned must have a close relationship with him.

Others may not be able to see it, but those who often get along closely, plan big things, eat and live together will definitely be able to see the difference between the two.

Therefore, Shentu Yu must not be a puppet who only knows how to obey orders, he must also have his own thoughts.

Liang Chongyue soaked in the bathtub, making and revising plans in his mind again and again, until the water in the bathtub became slightly warm, and then he came out of the bathtub.

Human nature is the most difficult thing to grasp in this world, let alone for a person who is alone and has nothing.

If you have never had it, you will not be afraid of losing it.

"Call Xi Yu over and bring some wine."

After Yun Ling and his men cleaned up the bathtub, they took orders and left.

Liang Chongyue was wrapped in a moon-white long dress and lying casually on the recliner. The brothers Shentu Jue were twins. One of them had been the focus of attention since childhood, and grew up with a sinister heart under the gaze of love and expectation.

A child born of a mother but raised by a father, locked in a tent for more than twenty years, is willing to do anything for a little bit of love that he has never felt before.

There are actually people who believe in such a ridiculous thing as taking heart blood to make medicine to prolong life, and there are also people who are willing to pay for it.

Liang Chongyue sneered, looked at the moon outside the window which was no longer bright, and smiled with his head down.

Forget it, people like this have clear likes and dislikes, so they are easier to manipulate.

"Your Highness, I brought two kinds of wine. What would you like to drink tonight?"

Xi Yu stood beside Liang Chongyue, his voice as cool as water, holding a tray in his hand.

Liang Chongyue glanced sideways and saw Xi Yu had already poured two different colored wines into the wine glasses.

Just by smelling the scent, Liang Chongyue could tell which glass of wine was stronger and which was softer.

Liang Chongyue looked up at Xi Yu. She did not bring him with her when she returned to the palace this time. She had not seen him serving her for a few days. He looked thinner and his face had no flesh.

"But did someone bully you? Why do you look thinner?"

Xi Yu was startled by His Highness' words and almost knocked the wine jug in his hand directly onto the table.

It had been an unknown amount of time since Xi Yu had heard His Highness express his concern. Her eyes were slightly red, and the red paper between her eyebrows looked even brighter.

"I'm living very well in your mansion. Your Highness manages his people very well. I've never seen anyone in your mansion blush. It's just that it's been hot lately, so I've been using less, but that's not a big deal."

After hearing what he said, Liang Chongyue withdrew his gaze and stopped asking questions. He just admired the scenery and said leisurely:

"If you are bullied, be more alert and don't act rashly. When I return, I will help you get revenge."

After Xi Yu was transferred to the winery by her, he would occasionally go out of the house to buy things. There were too many people in the capital who were too picky, and he was born with a good appearance. Just because there were no ignorant people now didn't mean there wouldn't be any in the future.

Liang Chongyue picked up the glass of softer wine and handed it to Xi Yu.

"From now on, unless I have any additional instructions, there is no need to send Rou wine anymore."

Xi Yu took the wine glass, and for a moment he didn't understand what His Highness meant. Was he talking about the wine alone or him in particular?

Liang Chongyue heard Xi Yu not moving for a long time, and knew that this person had started to have random thoughts again.

"Please take this pot of wine away. This princess has no other intentions."

Liang Chongyue now just wants to drink some wine quietly and take a nap. After dawn, she still has a lot of things to do.

"Yes, the slave will leave."

After Xi Yu left, Liang Chongyue drank three glasses of liquor in a row. Perhaps he was too sleepy, so he leaned back in the recliner and soon fell into a deep sleep.

While she was sleeping, she was awakened by the sound of something heavy falling on the terrace.
