A genius girl with her own space

Chapter 84: The Vicious Fourth Prince

"The Fourth Prince has over 300 secret guards, and I don't know how many assassins he has." The man with the mustache replied.

"Where do all your secret guards live?"

"Some live in the backyard of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, following his master. Some stay in another courtyard outside the Imperial City."

"Why are you living here? Why don't you live with them? Haven't you thought about it?" Qiqi asked.

"What are we thinking? We don't live with them, so aren't we freer? Well, that's not right. Usually, we go back to the other courtyard after receiving a mission, but this time, several of us participated in the mission to assassinate the old emperor. Ah! The fourth prince wants to betray us. Let us take the blame." said the man with a mustache.

"You're not that stupid. You can even see what your master is planning. Do you still want to follow such a master so wholeheartedly?" Qiqi asked.

"We have no choice but to follow him. The Fourth Prince's master gave us poison. If we escape, the poison will take effect and we will die. The Fourth Prince pleaded with his master to give us the antidote once a month. I didn't expect that the Fourth Prince is as cruel as his master. He wants to kill us." The man with the mustache said bitterly.

"Then take us into another yard and I will help you detoxify. Okay?" Qiqi asked.

"Okay, I'll take you there." After saying that, the man with the mustache tried to get up. Xie Lei went over and pressed the man's acupuncture points, then pressed his mute point. He then grabbed the man's arm and led him out of the yard.

Qiqi gestured to Wei Wushuang, who flew down from the tree and landed in front of her. Qiqi told her to have the secret guards take the other five people and detain them in the dungeon behind the secret door. She left a few expert secret guards there to guard the area. Anyone entering the courtyard would be apprehended and sent to the secret door. Fearing the secret guards wouldn't be able to defeat the Fourth Prince's men, Qiqi gave Wei Wushuang some drugs and poison. She told them to arrange for someone to monitor them.

After Qiqi gave the instructions, she went after Xie Lei and her master.

Wei Wushuang handed over everything Qiqi had instructed to her brother Wei Wuliang. She was worried about the landlord and the others, so she quickly chased after them.

The man with the mustache led a few people to a large courtyard with a tall gate. He asked the man to open the gate. As soon as they entered, Yun Jizi pressed the mute point of the man who opened the gate. He grabbed him with one hand and walked inside.

As Yun Jizi walked, he whispered to Xiao Huzi, "Which room do you live in? How many people are there in total?"

Xie Lei pointed the mustache-wearing man to several rooms. Qiqi took out the sleeping pills. Wei Wushuang quickly took them and walked over to the window, blowing the pills into each room.

Xie Lei knocked the mustache man unconscious with a single blow of his hand. Uneasy, Xie Lei pressed his acupuncture points and threw him to the ground. Xie Lei first opened a room where several people were sleeping on a large bunk bed.

Xie Lei was afraid they were cheating, so he went up to them one by one and pressed their acupoints. Qiqi and Wei Wushuang also joined in.

Yun Jizi watched from outside. Qiqi and the others went to nine rooms, each containing thirty people, all of whom were drugged by Qiqi's drugs. Qiqi and the others pressed their acupuncture points together.

Wei Wushuang left the courtyard and waved his hand in the air. Dozens of secret guards and several carriages came in. Wei Wushuang asked them to go into the house, put more than 200 people on the carriages, and take them to the cell with a secret door for interrogation.

Qiqi had been busy for most of the day and was feeling thirsty. She took out a few bottles of spiritual spring water from her space and distributed them to her master, Brother Xie Lei, and Wei Wushuang.

After Wei Wushuang finished drinking it, he felt refreshed, and all the fatigue he had felt was gone. He felt like he had endless energy. Wei Wushuang knew that the water he had just drunk was spiritual water. Wei Wushuang stared at Qiqi in a daze.

Qiqi smiled. "Your host isn't allowed to have good things. I'm also going to give you a martial arts manual. You and your brother can practice together." Qiqi then took out a book and handed it to Wei Wushuang. She also took out a bottle of spiritual spring water and handed it to her. "This bottle is for your brother. You've worked hard these past few years. When you have time, you should intensify your practice. Here are a few bottles of pills that Master refined for you. They will improve your skills."

Wei Wushuang took it with both hands, "Wushuang, thank you, host! For recognizing and caring for the Wushuang brothers and sisters, and thank you, Taoist Yunji, for the elixir."

Wei Wushuang bowed to the ground and thanked Qiqi and Yun Jizi.

"Sister Wei, don't be like this. You belong to me, Qiqi. If I don't take care of you, who should I take care of? You are like my family and my friends." Qiqi pulled Wei Wushuang up and said.

"Sister Wei, there's still time before dawn. Come with us to the Fourth Prince's mansion to take a look." Qiqi said.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Wei Wushuang put away the things Qiqi gave him, and they used their lightness skills to fly towards the Fourth Prince's mansion.

They arrived outside the Fourth Prince's Mansion. Yun Jizi flew to a nearby tall building and looked at the Fourth Prince's Mansion. Xie Lei also flew up with his mustache, and Qiqi and Wei Wushuang followed.

Xie Lei asked the man with the mustache, "Tell me, where does the Fourth Prince live? Where does his master live?"

The man with a mustache pointed to where the lights were on and then to the backyard.

"Where do your secret guards live? And where do the guards in the mansion live?" Xie Lei asked.

The man with the mustache pointed to the surrounding houses with lights on.

Qiqi whispered to Brother Xie Lei and Wei Wushuang, "You guys wait here, Master and I will go take a look."

"Qiqi, you and the Taoist priest should be careful." "OP, you should be careful." Xie Lei and Wei Wushuang said together.

Qiqi nodded and flew into the Fourth Prince's mansion with her master. They had just observed the guards' patrol patterns and flew into the lighting area after they had just finished their inspection. Qiqi and her master landed on the roof.

Qiqi cautiously peered down through the skylight. She saw two figures. One wore a crown and a cyan court robe. A young, handsome man with a gloomy, cold expression—the Fourth Prince. The other was a middle-aged man with a cold expression, his small eyes narrowed, even gleaming with an unnatural coldness, giving the impression of a sinister and cunning mind. This must be the Fourth Prince's master. They were talking.

"Master, we failed to assassinate the emperor this time. He became alert and we were all passive. If the prince had saved the emperor, then he would have treated him better. We lost this chance and have to wait for the next time, but we don't know when that will be. Besides, the emperor and the prince's mansion are investigating the assassin. What if they find us?" asked the fourth prince.

"Jingping, why are you in such a hurry? The worst that can happen is that we kill those people outside the city and say that they are assassins sent by Shunqing Kingdom. There is no cure for their deaths. Where can the old emperor find people? As long as they are not caught, we will not be implicated. The prince was poisoned. The poison is very difficult to cure. I stole the poison from the sect, and I only stole a little bit. If they don't die now, it will be difficult to find the antidote. It will be difficult for them to survive by then. Hahaha." The fourth prince's master laughed.

The fourth prince's name was Zhou Jingping. It was his mother who gave him this name, hoping he would grow up peacefully and live out his days as a leisurely prince. She had no idea that after her death, her son would be subjected to inhuman torture, his personality drastically altered. Coupled with the teachings of the fourth prince's master, he embarked on a path of no return.

"Master, why don't we leave the city first. Let someone pretend to be me and stay in the imperial city. Let him take the blame if anything happens." Zhou Jingping said.

"Your master, I don't want to live a life of wandering and wandering anymore, hiding from the sect's pursuit every day. If I show up in the martial arts world and they get the news, they'll hunt me down again."

"Master, what did you take from the sect that makes them won't let you go?" Zhou Jingping asked.

"That's not something you should ask."

Zhou Jingping curled his lips and said nothing.
