Sheng Nanzhi reached out and grabbed Shi Huaizhi's arm: "There's an assassin."

Shi Huaizhi followed Sheng Nanzhi's gaze and nodded, his voice calm: "Yes, there is an assassin."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly laughed again: "Wen Tingyun is tied to the prison van. Isn't this a perfect living target?"

Sheng Nanzhi paused, it seemed that it was indeed the case.

So, who arranged all this?

Those princes? Or Shi Huaizhi? Or... the emperor in the palace who seemed unconscious?

But before Sheng Nanzhi could figure it out, the assassins on the roof shot all their arrows.

"Ahhh!"

There were bursts of screams from downstairs, and the onlookers fled in all directions.

The people in the prison van seemed to have completely stopped moving.

Sheng Nanzhi turned around and went downstairs, heading straight for the prison van.

Soon, the officer guarding the prison van came forward and seemed to test the breath of the person in the van: "Dead!"

died.

Sheng Nanzhi paused, but quickly took another step and walked quickly towards the prison van.

When Sheng Nanzhi walked to the prison van, he saw Wen Tingyun tied to the van with his head drooping, more than ten arrows stuck in his body, and blood flowing all over.

His eyes were wide open, as if he couldn't believe that he would die like this.

Is dead.

Sheng Nanzhi lowered her eyes and her eyelashes trembled. She died so early.

She hadn't even had time to make a move.

She had originally thought that she must tie up Wen Tingyun, humiliate him, and then kill him with her own hands.

As a result, he died just like that.

She inexplicably felt unhappy.

Death is a bit too easy.

Shi Huaizhi pulled Sheng Nanzhi behind him and whispered, "Those assassins may not have left yet. Let's go first to avoid being misunderstood."

"Once the news gets back to the palace, I'm afraid there will be quite a few people looking for you."

Sheng Nanzhi responded and followed Shi Huaizhi back to Prince Yi's Mansion.

But what kept coming back to his mind was Wen Tingyun’s eyes wide open before he died.

Shi Huaizhi's prediction was correct. Soon, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door. Someone came to look for her.

Jin Xin quickly opened the door and saw Sheng Nanzhi sitting on the bamboo couch under the window in a daze. Jin Xin hurried over and said, "Princess, have you heard that Wen Tingyun was convicted of deceiving the emperor by the other princes and paraded through the streets. He was then assassinated during the parade."

Sheng Nanzhi turned her eyes and shook her head, but she thought to herself that she had not heard about it, she was at the scene and saw it with her own eyes.

In fact, she discovered the assassin earlier than Wen Tingyun.

Jin Xin curled her lips and looked at Sheng Nanzhi: "Wen Tingyun was not a good person either. It's better for him to die."

"This way, Princess, you don't have to worry about him causing any more trouble."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded: "Yes, it's better to die."

She also felt that Wen Tingyun deserved to die.

After all, in her previous life, although Sheng Yunrou and Wen Tingyun were involved with each other, it was Sheng Yunrou who killed her in the end.

But if you trace it back to the root cause, all the sources are because of Wen Tingyun.

If it weren't for Wen Tingyun's indulgence, if it weren't for Wen Tingyun's own failure to stick to the bottom line, neither the beauties around him nor Sheng Yunrou would have had a chance.

If Wen Tingyun had not tacitly agreed, Sheng Yunrou would not have been able to kill her so blatantly.

So, Wen Tingyun really deserves to die.

She just felt that Wen Tingyun died too easily.

I felt like I had gotten my revenge, but I didn't feel very good about it.

Jin Xin was talking to Sheng Nanzhi when hurried footsteps were heard again. This time, it was the housekeeper.

"Princess, someone has come from the palace to say that His Majesty has woken up and has urgently summoned all the princes to the palace for an audience."

Sheng Nanzhi was stunned and exchanged a glance with Shi Huaizhi who was standing outside the door.

Shi Huaizhi actually guessed it right.

As soon as Wen Tingyun died, the emperor woke up.

What an irony.

Did the emperor have so many sons just for him to kill them one by one?

"The prince's visit to the palace should have nothing to do with me, right?"

The housekeeper shook his head: "Because Prince Yi is in a coma, our family summoned Princess Yi to enter the palace on her husband's behalf."

"According to the palace servant who brought the message, His Majesty said he has something important to tell you and asks Princess Yi to come to the palace."

Sheng Nanzhi's eyes darkened. Important matter? What important matter?

Are they going to let her enter the palace?

If so...

Sheng Nanzhi took a deep breath and asked, "Didn't you tell the palace servant who came to deliver the message that I was sick?"

"I did, but the palace maid said that His Majesty has ordered that even if she has to be carried, Princess Yi must be carried into the palace."

She had to go.

Sheng Nanzhi became increasingly irritated, secretly thinking that she would just go into the palace and later take the fake death medicine that her master gave her to save her life.

If she saw that the situation was not right, she would die in front of the emperor.

Anyway, ever since she had the idea of ​​running away, she has been gradually arranging everything.

Now, everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged.

Just wait for her to "die".

"Wait for me to change my clothes." Sheng Nanzhi stood up and waited for the housekeeper to leave before changing into the princess's formal dress. Then she used powder to make her face whiter, and put on a few red rash-like things before going out.

Shi Huaizhi quickly caught up with her: "It's okay, don't worry, I have arranged everything."

"He's dying, so he definitely won't do anything to you."

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelashes trembled, and she just nodded without saying anything.

about to die?

How and when will he die?

If it was Shi Huaizhi's plan, she shouldn't be implicated, right?

Sheng Nanzhi got into the carriage while pretending to cover her lips and cough.

Perhaps because Sheng Nanzhi had been claiming to be sick, the carriage did not stop at the palace gate, but went directly into the palace and reached the last palace gate outside the Taiji Hall.

When Sheng Nanzhi got off the carriage, she saw Concubine Hua rushing in from the harem.

Seeing Sheng Nanzhi, Concubine Hua breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, we met by chance."

She waved towards Sheng Nanzhi and said, "Since we happened to meet, let's go in together."

Sheng Nanzhi responded, stepped forward and took Concubine Hua's hand. Concubine Hua turned around and glanced at the palace maids who were following her at a distance of three meters, then lowered her voice, "I don't know what kind of trouble he's going to make, but Nanzhi, don't worry. I'm here today, and even if it's the Emperor, I won't let him have any ideas about you."

Only then did Sheng Nanzhi realize why Concubine Fang Caihua had such a relieved expression.

Sheng Nanzhi couldn't help but feel touched: "Your Majesty summoned me, it shouldn't be about that matter, right?"

"No matter whether he is or not, it's best if he is not."

"Let's go and see what show is being performed today."
