The Villain is Reborn! Princess Zhan goes on a killing spree in the capital

Qingtuan's first reaction was to instinctively take a step back, as the memory of the humiliation that night resurfaced.

Gui Xiaocao's face turned pale?

Child’s father?

Xiaocao looked at Qingtuan warily. Are they in the same group?!

Ji Xue stood aside with her arms folded across her chest. This was Qingtuan's inner demon, and the chance for her to cut it off with her own hands had come.

"Qingtuan! Hurry up and find someone to save me, or you'll end up in trouble if you marry into this family!" Chen Donghai said viciously. In his eyes, he had Qingtuan's family in his control, and Qingtuan couldn't possibly turn the tables.

"Don't be so shameless!"

"Ahhhhh! Go to hell, go to hell!" Qingtuan clenched the dagger that Ji Xue had handed to her jokingly, and stabbed it at Chen Donghai.

One knife, two knives, three knives...

Blood splattered everywhere.

Qingtuan didn't know how many times he stabbed Chen Donghai. Chen Donghai groaned in pain and finally stopped moving, staring at Qingtuan with his eyes wide open, and died with his eyes open.

In the end, Qingtuan was covered in blood before he reacted. He loosened his grip and the dagger fell to the ground.

Cry loudly.

Gui Xiaocao watched quietly, then walked forward stiffly and patted Qingtuan on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's over."

"He deserves to die! He deserves to die!" Qingtuan suddenly hugged Gui Xiaocao and burst into tears: "I secretly saved up the money to redeem myself. When I was ready, I could leave the prime minister's residence and the capital to start a new life. But now everything is ruined!"

"Yeah, he deserves to die!" Gui Xiaocao also burst into tears. "As long as Brother Yuanzhou reported it to the authorities, Xiaocao could leave the Gui family and marry Brother Yuanzhou. But now it's all ruined by this bastard. Xiaocao can never marry Brother Yuanzhou again! He really deserves to die!"

The two of them hugged each other and cried bitterly.

"When will it ever end in the middle of the night? You're always making such a fuss every day. Can't you stop making trouble a little?!" An angry roar suddenly came from next door.

The two people who were crying became quiet.

Gui Xiaocao took the dagger from Qingtuan and wiped away her tears with a determined look on her face: "I just said that I killed him. I will go to the government office to surrender at dawn. You can go now."

"No, I was the one who killed him in the end. Maybe your sweetheart won't mind. Maybe you can still be together." Qingtuan's face was pale, but his eyes were full of determination: "Qingtuan has no future. I'd better turn myself in."

Now that the commotion has gotten so bad, and the house is covered in blood, there's no way to hide it. At daybreak, people walking down the street will definitely notice something's wrong.

If the neighbors hear the noise again, no one will be able to escape.

"Miss, please leave quickly. It will be bad if you get involved." Qingtuan looked at Ji Xue, knelt down and kowtowed heavily: "I will work like a slave in my next life and repay you."

"But I don't like debt collection." Ji Xue glanced at Chen Donghai's residence and said, "It's better to pay it back in this lifetime."

As she spoke, she walked to Chen Donghai, took out a small medicine bottle, opened it, and poured the powder inside onto the corpse.

After a while, the huge corpse gradually dissolved and finally turned into a foul-smelling liquid.

Qingtuan and Gui Xiaocao looked at each other, and joy appeared on their blood-stained faces.

Who wants to die when they can live?

"Miss, how come you know everything?" Qingtuan looked at Ji Xue with shining eyes, feeling that the image of the young lady had become a little taller.

"Don't flatter me. I don't know how to clean up the bloodstains!" Ji Xue looked at the blood on the ground and the wall with some disdain: "You guys deal with this yourselves."

"Miss, there's no need for such rough work. Just wait here." Qingtuan looked extremely embarrassed at the moment, but his eyes were full of hope.

Gui Xiaocao didn't say much, but quickly brought a clean stool to Ji Xue and started to clean.

Bang bang bang!

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"The Jinwu Guards are on night patrol. Why is there so much noise here?!"

The loud questioning was particularly clear in the middle of the night. Qingtuan and Gui Xiaocao in the room suddenly became nervous and their faces turned pale.

Ji Xue looked at the back door and the height of the wall in the yard, then looked at Qingtuan and Gui Xiaocao, and weighed the possibility of taking them both away at the same time.

Her spiritual power was dissipating again, making it difficult for her to escape with the two of them safely.

"Is anyone there? Open the door!"

The Jinwu Guards knocked on the door persistently.

"What are you arguing about? Haven't you seen a couple quarrel?" Ji Xue suddenly spoke, but the voice that came out was a man's voice, which sounded 70% similar to Chen Donghai: "I beat my wife, and you, the general, also care! You are really meddling in other people's business!"

"My wife and I are naked, so we can't open the door!"

"If the general wants to see a couple fight, go to Lichunyuan. Your Wei Touer is there too!"

The knocking on the door stopped abruptly.

"Do you know Wei Touer?" The voice outside the door softened a lot.

"Brothers wearing the same pants, you bastards, tell me if you know each other!" Ji Xue said angrily, "Get out of here! Don't ruin my business!"

From the secret report sent by Dong Chu, Ji Xue was well aware of the complicated relationships in the court.

The Jinwu Guards were even easier to control.

The sound outside the door gradually faded away.

"Miss!" Qingtuan looked at Ji Xue with sparkling eyes. Miss was so powerful: "Don't worry, Qingtuan knows what's going on and won't tell anything."

What the eldest lady knows are obviously not what a lady from a wealthy family should know. And what about Wei Touer? She is not someone the eldest lady should know.

Gui Xiaocao also raised her hands and swore to the sky: "Xiaocao swears that she will never tell the young lady's secret."

Ji Xue yawned, looking lazy and sleepy: "Secrets, I don't have any secrets. Even if you tell me, I won't admit it."

"Hurry up, or we'll be in trouble when daybreak comes."

They still have to sneak back home.

An hour later——

The three of them slipped back to the backyard of the prime minister's residence.

"Miss, is it really okay for you to bring Xiaocao into the mansion for no reason like this?" Gui Xiaocao was curious and a little excited. Her grandmother was on duty at the Prime Minister's residence, and Xiaocao had been told since she was a child that she must never come to the mansion to see her grandmother, otherwise she would be beaten. But now, she was standing in the Prime Minister's residence.

"Something's going on, so Xiaocao might be punished to empty the nightshade and clean the toilet." Ji Xue was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes. She said lazily, "Are you afraid, Xiaocao?"

"As long as I follow the young lady, Xiaocao is not afraid of hardship." The blood stains on Gui Xiaocao's face had been washed clean, revealing her fair and beautiful facial features, and her unyielding eyes were shining.

She is not afraid of hardship, but she is afraid of suffering and then being scolded as a troublemaker who wastes food.

Although Ji Xue's words were harsh, it was the first time Xiao Cao had seen a young lady venting her anger with a maid. The young lady was loyal and righteous, and it would definitely be right to follow her.

"Miss is just teasing you." Qingtuan had already explained the rules of the Prime Minister's Residence to Xiaocao along the way. She solemnly bowed to Ji Xue and said, "Miss, for your kindness tonight, Qingtuan will repay you by working like a slave for the rest of my life!"

"You don't have to work like a slave. Just be yourself." Ji Xue dozed off and on, "You've decided whether you want this child or not. Your heartless family members can just let them go, but the one in your belly is the only family member you can choose for yourself."

"With this lady here, you can choose according to your own wishes."

"Qingtuan understands." Qingtuan gently tucked Ji Xue's cloak and said, "Miss, go back to sleep. When Qingtuan returns, Miss Bingming will come and serve you."

"The second young lady of the Xiangfu is Gui Mingyue, right?" Gui Xiaocao suddenly spoke up. "She's very narrow-minded. Sister Qingtuan, are you sure you want to go back?"
