Becoming a stepmother of three children gives me space

Xiao Yunxi didn't know that her revenge had inadvertently forced the King of Chu and the King of Qing to take risks, but when she thought about it, it seemed very reasonable.

Rebellion requires people, and training people requires money and food. If their money and food are cut off, then the rebellion will be launched.

She was not interested in the love-hate relationship between the King of Chu and the King of Qing, or between His Highness and his son. She was interested in the betrothal gifts. Adults don't make choices.

The betrothal gift is used as a prop to exchange for more dowry, but it does not mean that the betrothal gift has to be left to two people.

The King of Chu and the eldest princess had just suffered losses, so they must have been on guard at this time. Three days later, Xiao Yunxi visited the Princess's Mansion and the King of Chu's Mansion again.

If we talk about stupidity, it has to be the King of Chu. He has even kept the betrothal gifts in his private vault until now, and has not even moved the things in the private vault to another place to hide them.

Xiao Yunxi was very rude and emptied out all the betrothal gifts, including the private vault, the warehouse, the main courtyard, and the kitchen. She emptied everything that could be emptied.

Even if the King of Chu reported it to the authorities, who would believe him?

The people of the entire capital would only think that the King of Chu was embezzling money, transferring the property, pretending to be pitiful, and trying to avoid paying the dowry.

After leaving the Prince of Chu's Mansion, Xiao Yunxi headed straight for the Grand Princess's Mansion. The moment she flashed into the private vault and revealed her figure, she sensed danger.

There is an ambush!

She immediately flashed into the space. Several crossbows were nailed into the floor beneath her feet. A short arrow was stuck in Xiao Yunxi's shoulder.

Careless!

Just now at the Prince of Chu's Mansion, although the number of guards had doubled, they were all outside the warehouse and there was no one inside. I didn't expect that the Princess's Mansion would actually arrange personnel inside the private warehouse.

The people in the warehouse were all masters. They launched crossbows the moment she appeared. If it weren't for the space, she would have been dead on the spot.

The ability to disappear cannot be spread out, and these people must die.

In the warehouse,

The shadow guard hiding in the dark fired his crossbow without even checking whether he had hit the target. He moved and pounced on Xiao Yunxi, but the target disappeared right before his eyes.

"what happened?"

The shadow guard leader looked stunned, thinking that Xiao Yunxi had suddenly appeared in the warehouse and disappeared just as suddenly, which made sense.

Boom,

A dark object was thrown on the ground. The shadow guard did not even look at it. He immediately spread out his body and dispersed.

Boom boom boom,

They were well-trained, quick to react, and able to handle the situation appropriately, but they were facing the pervert Xiao Yunxi.

Throw a grenade in each of the four directions, plus the grenade in the center. No matter how powerful the shadow guard is, he will not be able to escape.

boom!

Boom boom boom!

An explosion sounded in the private vault. Xiao Yunxi appeared immediately, quickly left the spot, and reappeared on the beam.

He quickly scanned the private vault and found three figures in the dark. They were responsible for surveillance. Even when their companions were blown to pieces, they showed no emotion.

Flash activated, she appeared behind the shadow guard, poof, raised her hand and slashed with her knife, and the next second she appeared behind the second person,

After getting rid of the three people in the dark, he quickly found the betrothal gifts, put them into the space, and returned to the beam.

thump,

thump,

thump,

The three people hiding in the dark finally fell to the ground. It seemed like a long moment, but in fact it was only a moment.

Xiao Yunxi scanned the entire private vault, confirming that there were no survivors among the shadow guards within the explosion range. She slipped into the space, and a group of guards rushed in moments later.

night is deep,

The eldest princess hasn't gone to bed yet. She is waiting, waiting for Xiao Yunxi to take the bait.

Women's intuition is very scary. Although there is no evidence, the eldest princess believes that Xiao Yunxi was responsible for the last fire and the betrothal gift incident.

She told her father about this matter in the hope that she could use the shadow guards to capture Xiao Yunxi, and then the Zhou family would be destroyed.

When Xiao Yunxi threw a grenade and it exploded, she immediately rushed to the private vault. As soon as she entered the yard, the head guard in charge of the private vault turned pale:

"Your Highness, the private vault...the private vault has been robbed...everyone in the palace is dead!"

The news was like a bolt from the blue, leaving the princess at a loss and terrified. Even though her shadow guard was dead and her warehouse was robbed, she was happy.

Because if I report this to my father, he will definitely be wary.

She was also afraid,

The shadow guards were so well prepared, yet they were all killed and the betrothal gifts were stolen. The enemy's methods were even more terrifying than she had imagined.

If he attacked her directly, there would be no chance of her surviving.

She ordered the guards to surround the courtyard where she lived. She did not dare to go to sleep and waited until dawn. Then she hurried to the palace and reported to the emperor what had happened last night.

"Your Majesty... Your son's death is not a pity. If she intends to harm Your Majesty and cause unrest in the country, Your Majesty, please make a decision as soon as possible."

The shadow guards were completely wiped out, even the people who were secretly monitoring were killed, and the betrothal gifts were stolen. The emperor was very afraid of such means, but he did not want to capture Xiao Yunxi.

He couldn't make a decision.

There is no evidence. Just because there was a fire in the Grand Princess's Mansion and the betrothal gifts were stolen, it is not convincing at all to say that it was Xiao Yunxi who did it.

of course,

He is the emperor and does not need evidence to kill people. He is afraid of the Zhou and Shen families. If he captures Xiao Yunxi for no reason, it may cause turmoil in the country.

"Is there any more concrete evidence?"

"Father... Prince Qing's mansion was once robbed. The heavily guarded palace was quietly emptied. At that time, Xiao Yunxi happened to be in Weizhou City. How could such a coincidence exist in the world?"

The princess's analysis is reasonable.

Just take this time for example. Not to mention the sudden appearance of the betrothal gifts, the Prince of Chu’s mansion was robbed last night, the betrothal gifts from the eldest princess’ mansion disappeared out of thin air, and all the shadow guards were killed.

In such a short time, let alone emptying the private vault, it would be difficult to even take away the betrothal gifts, and it could be done without anyone noticing. This is similar to the theft in Prince Qing's Mansion.

It is impossible for two people in the world to be able to use such mysterious methods. Xiao Yunxi is indeed a bit of a suspect.

"You go back, I will handle this matter myself."

The eldest princess kneels down:

"Father, what happened last night proves that the betrothal gifts were not stolen by me and my second brother. Please make the decision for me."

The emperor waved his hand:

"Go now. The betrothal gift has been decided. Prepare the dowry so as not to bring disgrace upon the royal family."

This matter is strange, but the people don’t know it. If he forcibly intervenes, he will be scolded to death by the people.

Besides,

We cannot rule out the possibility that the shadow guard was killed by the eldest princess. The emperor will not trust anyone, not even his own children.

"Send a team of assassins to kill the Crown Princess. I want to know if she is the one."

The Shadow Guard Commander walked out of the darkness:

"Your Majesty... The Crown Princess is surrounded by so many guards that I'm afraid they can't even get close to her."

"Then send a secret team!"

"His Majesty...."

The emperor waved his hand. The secret force was his greatest weapon. If it was exposed, he would have no trump card, which would be fatal to his safety.

But he had made up his mind.

He stayed in the palace every day, and no one could threaten his safety. He could also expose his secret troops and deter some people who were ready to make moves.
