Cang Qiong suddenly realized that something was wrong and stopped talking.
If it was an ordinary killer hired for money, why would he be so afraid of his identity being exposed that he would commit suicide by taking poison?
These men in black outside were not recruited by Song Yale!
"It's the queen."
Song Zhi made a conclusion in a deep voice.
She can place spies in the Eastern Palace, and as the Queen, she can do so even more. The Queen may even know more details than she does.
But the queen did not make it public. She took advantage of the situation and asked Song Yale to find someone to assassinate her, and also sent someone else.
If Anya Song’s people failed to succeed, then the people she sent would take action and then put the blame on Anya Song.
If Anya Song’s people succeeded, then the people she sent would directly make things worse.
In this way, she could not only get rid of her and relieve the hatred in her heart, but also let Mu Qinghan divorce Song Yale and find a girl from his mother's family with a strong background to be the Crown Princess to assist him.
The queen is really good at calculating. No matter how things develop, she can always remain invisible and reap the benefits.
But she probably didn't expect that Song Zhi could survive two waves of killers.
"This old woman has such a long reach."
Cang Jing cursed and drank a cup of tea before pouring himself another one.
Looking at Cang Jian, Xiao Tao suddenly burst out laughing.
Song Zhi also looked like he couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became relaxed. "Is this why you've been covering your eyes?"
Cang Jing's left eye was covered with purple bruises, which made him look very funny.
"Ok?"
Cang Qiong hadn't reacted yet. He finished his second cup of tea, holding the cup in one hand and the teapot in the other, and was about to refill it when he suddenly realized that he had taken his hand off his eyes. He jumped up as if he had been electrocuted, "Oh my god!"
He covered his eyes again and said, "Don't look at me like that, man. It's just a minor injury."
At that time, he was watching the two sides fighting fiercely outside the mansion, and he was itching to join in. However, he didn't expect that his kung fu was not good enough and he was punched in the eye by the opponent.
Fortunately, there were secret guards protecting him, otherwise he would have received more than just one punch.
He originally felt embarrassed and wanted to hide it, but he was so excited that he forgot about it.
Song Zhishen nodded in agreement, "Yes, a man should be fine with a minor injury, but you should think about how to explain this injury to Madam Cang tomorrow morning."
When Cang Qiong mentioned Madam Cang, his vision suddenly darkened. He simply took his hand away without hesitation, "I don't care. After all, this injury of mine was caused by you. You have to be responsible for me."
Song Zhi pondered for a moment, "How about you just say you bumped into someone accidentally when you were going to the toilet in the middle of the night and the candlelight was too dim?"
Cang Qiong looked at me like I was a fool. "Do you treat my smart and capable mother like a child? Even my father can't beat her. You expect to fool her with such a lame excuse?"
Song Zhi thought about it and said, "Then you can say that a mosquito landed in your eye while you were sleeping, and you wanted to slap it, but you hit it too hard and that's what happened."
The more Cang Qiong listened, the less reliable it seemed. "Forget it, forget it. I'd rather figure it out on my own."
Song Zhi laughed and said without hesitation, "Then you think about it yourself."
Cang Jing was furious, "You woman!"
"Okay, enough joking around. Remember to get rid of these corpses later."
They still had a lot to do in the second half of the night. If the blood in the room wasn't cleaned up, Sun would be scared to death if she saw it.
Because she had transferred all the servants from Qingfeng Courtyard during the day, even though so much noise was made, no one else in the Song Mansion noticed it for the time being.
Cang Qiong sighed, "Well, I'm the eldest son of the Cang family, but you treat me like a servant."
But having said that, he still stood up and arranged for the secret guards to clean up.
Soon, the whole house was restored to its original state.
Those secret guards not only moved the bodies away, but also cleaned up the mess very professionally, saving them from having to do it themselves.
After doing all this, the secret guards disappeared into the darkness like ghosts, as if they had never appeared.
Cang Qiong also said goodbye and left, leaving only Song Zhi and Xiao Tao in the room.
"Miss, do you need a bath? I'll have someone boil some water."
"Okay, let's both wash up."
Song Zhi yawned sleepily. This night was quite eventful.
At the same time, Song Yale's bedroom and Kunning Palace were still brightly lit.
The Queen placed the book heavily on the table and said sullenly, "So many people were sent out, and not a single one returned?"
A guard knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, there is something strange about the Song Mansion. The brothers we sent out are nowhere to be found alive or dead. I think they are in great danger."
"waste!"
The Queen raised her hand and threw the book hard at him. "I sent so many people, but they couldn't even deal with a girl from the inner chamber. What's the point of keeping you?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down." The guard was terrified and kowtowed to beg for mercy.
The Queen took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "Check! It's impossible for so many people to disappear out of thin air."
"Yes, that Song Mansion..."
"This Song Zhiyuan is even more complicated than I thought. I can't act rashly until I am absolutely sure of his success."
"Yes." The guard bowed out respectfully.
In the candlelight, there was a fierce look in the queen's eyes.
Ever since Mu Qinghan had those things happen, she had to deal with the emperor, stabilize the morale of those who stood on their side, and compete with several other princes in wits and courage. She was busy and exhausted.
She paid a huge price and promised many people many benefits before she gradually brought the situation under control.
Looking back at the culprit Song Zhi, she couldn't wait to take revenge.
I didn't expect to suffer heavy losses and get defeated as soon as I made a move.
"What trump card does she have? She's not even a match for the Blood Guards I trained."
The queen looked solemn. Fortunately, these blood guards were all death warriors, so she should not have been exposed yet.
Originally, such an unfathomable woman should be his daughter-in-law, and she would definitely be a great help to Qinghan.
As a result, his stupid son not only broke off the engagement, but also married the useless Song Yale. Even when looking for a killer, he could only find those who were not up to par.
Thinking of this, the queen felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a fly.
The despised Song Yale herself was even more nervous at this time. She had been anxiously waiting for good news from the killers, but she leaned against the door and waited until dawn but nothing came.
With every bit of sunlight, her heart sank.
When the sky brightened, Yaer came back from outside, sweating profusely, and said in a panic, "Crown Princess, something bad has happened. We can't contact those assassins."
Anya Song’s heart tightened, and her fingers gripped the door frame tightly, “What do you mean I can’t get in touch with you?”
Yaer panted and said cautiously, "The capital is peaceful. I think they made a mistake."
Anya Song gritted her teeth in hatred, “Why is that bitch so hard-working!”
Suddenly, I felt a little nervous. "What about us? Are we exposed?"
Yaer shook her head. "Don't worry, Princess. When I went to find the assassins, I only said I wanted to kill Miss Song. I didn't reveal my identity. Even if they fail, no one will know it was us."
