But now, Princess Qiyang is dead, and all the guards around her are dead too. How can he explain this to the eldest princess and the emperor?

I'm afraid you will have to go to Beijing even if you don't want to.

Suddenly, Lu Yunyang had a bold idea.

"Could it be Jiang Jiu who killed Princess Qiyang? Look at Qiyang's wounds. Could it be caused by the treasure he found? If it was Jiang Jiu who beat her to death, why did she frame me?"

When Lu Ming heard this, he was stunned.

"That's impossible. Miss Jiang is a kind person. How could she kill someone?"

"Besides, Princess Qiyang has no grudge against her..."

No, Princess Qiyang had imprisoned her and beaten her until she was covered in bruises.

"Master, if Princess Qiyang is making things difficult for Miss Jiang because of the treasure she wants, then maybe she killed her because Miss Jiang found the treasure and refused to hand it over to Princess Qiyang."

Sure enough, even Lu Ming figured it out, so how could Lu Yunyang not figure it out?

And there are only a few people in the villa tonight.

The only person who could kill all of Princess Qiyang’s maids and guards was Ye Guzhou.

This woman is so bold. I want to see what she is going to do.

Lu Yunyang waved his hand and said, "Bring me a pot of good wine. I will not leave until my wife and I are drunk."

In Jiang Jiu's room, she was still sitting at the desk, playing with the gun in her hands, skillfully taking it apart, putting it back together, taking it apart again, and putting it back together again.

He also studied it carefully in combination with the drawings left by Jiang Yao.

Unlike Jiang Yao, Jiang Jiu is just an ordinary office worker and usually has no chance to come into contact with guns.

However, during military training in college, she had the opportunity to dismantle a gun.

The pistol was made very small and easy to hide. The drawings left by Jiang Yao included a pistol, a sniper rifle, and an AK.

Jiang Jiu felt that Jiang Yao seemed to want to do it, but for some reason, she didn't do it.

Ye Guzhou stood by and watched.

"The prince is coming." Ye Guzhou heard the footsteps and made a judgment.

Jiang Jiu reassembled the pistol and put it back into the ceremony.

She stood up and went to the balcony. She knew very well the purpose of Lu Yunyang's visit.

"Now that I've figured out the murderer, do you think he'll kill me?"

Ye Guzhou had no expression on his face and spoke indifferently: "If he dares to touch you, I will kill him first."

Jiang Jiu smiled: "If he had ambition, he wouldn't kill me, and he might even let me help him."

Ye Guzhou was silent.

Jiang Jiu suddenly muttered to himself, "How on earth did Jiang Yao die? If she had lived another twenty years, the world might have belonged to her."

After a long while, Ye Guzhou finally said slowly, "She is sick, her body is very cold, and she has corpse spots on her body. The doctor said she has been dead for a long time..."

Jiang Jiu was slightly startled and had an immature idea in his mind.

Could it be that the body Jiang Yao's soul entered was incompatible with her soul?

"After she died, was she burned to ashes and scattered into the sea?"

Well, a trace of sadness flashed across Ye Guzhou's indifferent expression.

Jiang Jiu thought carefully about the strange dream. It seemed like a dream but also not. It was so real as if it was her personal experience at work.

"I dreamed of her. She died here, but maybe she was revived over there."

Sudden death may mean the intersection of time and space.

Jiang Jiu could only think so. After all, modern medicine is still very advanced.

It is also possible that Jiang Yao came here for a trip while being treated in the hospital. She was almost recovered there, but she passed away here.

Ye Guzhou didn't understand what Jiang Jiu meant, but he didn't pursue it.

The reason why he was willing to follow Jiang Jiu was simply because Jiang Jiu was too similar to Jiang Yao.

They don't look alike, but they have the same aura of self-confidence and the spirit of everyone seeming equal, but taking revenge when there is revenge, and fighting when there is grievance. They are so similar.

Including the posture she used when she shot Princess Qiyang just now, it reminded him of the posture Jiang Yao used when she shot the Third Prince, exactly the same.

Lu Yunyang arrived late, carrying a pot of wine.

"Xiao Jiuer, let's have a drink together..."

After eating, drinking and having fun, Lu Yunyang returned to his lazy and dissolute appearance.

Ye Guzhou did not stop him this time, but just stopped Lu Ming outside the door.

Only Lu Yunyang and Jiang Jiu were left in the room.

In addition to the underfloor heating pipes, the room also has a wall-mounted stove.

The charcoal burning inside is silver bone charcoal, there is no smoke and it is very warm.

The wall-mounted stove also has a chimney that leads directly to the roof.

There was a chaise longue in front of the stove, where Jiang Yao should often lie to rest, but Jiang Jiu felt it was too hot, so he moved the chaise longue aside.

There were several dishes placed in front of the stove, and when he saw Lu Yunyang holding a pot of wine, he looked a little disgusted.

"I have some excellent wine here, the Peach Blossom Wine brewed by my grandma. I've heated it up. Have some."

Seeing that Jiang Jiu had already set up the banquet, Lu Yunyang didn't say anything and sat on the cushion as the host pleased.

Jiang Jiu poured him a glass of wine and also poured himself a glass.

"What do you want from me so late?"

Faced with such a smart woman like Jiang Jiu, Lu Yunyang didn't need to beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Did you find the treasure your grandmother left behind?"

Jiang Jiu remained silent, poured himself another glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.

Lu Yunyang then asked, "You killed Qi Yang, why did you frame me?"

Jiang Jiu raised his gentle willow-shaped eyebrows and smiled.

"You figured it out so quickly, you're pretty smart."

She actually admitted it like that. Lu Yunyang suddenly felt a lump of air stuck in his chest, and he felt suffocated and anxious.

"Why?" Lu Yunyang stared at Jiang Jiu with his beautiful peach blossom eyes, full of confusion but not sadness.

Jiang Jiu smiled and drank another glass of wine: "Guess..."

Lu Yunyang simply gave in: "I don't want to guess, I want you to say..."

Jiang Jiu tilted his cute head, thought for a moment, and said, "If you use my money, you have to ask for some interest. I don't like to suffer losses..."

Lu Yunyang has been recruiting troops on a large scale recently. Now he has money and confidence, so he can do whatever he wants.

But he never expected that Jiang Jiu would ask for interest.

"If the emperor knew that you killed Princess Qiyang, your entire clan would be exterminated."

Jiang Jiu blinked innocently: "That's why I put the blame on you. Could it be that the emperor can destroy your entire clan?"

Lu Yunyang choked and was once again surprised by Jiang Jiu's logic.

Jiang Jiu drank another glass of wine calmly: "Anyway, the news has spread throughout Su City. I believe it will reach the capital in a few days. Maybe we will go to the capital together. Lu Yun... Oh, no, Your Highness the Prince of Qi, the road to the capital is full of dangers. Let's stick together for warmth."

Lu Yunyang didn't know what to say.

"Why do we have to go to the capital? I'm not ready yet."

Jiang Jiu laughed sarcastically: "What are you preparing for? It's been fifteen years. You have been preparing for fifteen years. Are you preparing to let the Queen kill you, or are you preparing to kill the Emperor and take back the throne..."

"How dare you! How dare you say such outrageous words." Lu Yunyang was forced into such a situation, but he still did not think of resisting.

Jiang Jiu smiled: "You are too sentimental. Seeing him as your brother, the emperor, who has watched you grow up, an elder brother is like a father, you can't bear to kill him, but he is willing to kill you. You are lucky to have escaped once or twice. You won't be able to escape every time."
