The cannon fodder heiress trembled with fear after being recognized as a member of her family.

Hao Wenxin seemed to be talking about something unrelated, her voice completely flat.

"Later, candles came along, but they could only be used during meals. They treated Princess Yunxiu like dirt, especially Su Tian, ​​who sometimes wouldn't even feed her..."

Han Cuiyin also stopped trying to amuse Luo Jingqian and instead looked at Hao Wenxin with suspicion.

Is what this person said true?

From the outside, Princess Yunxiu appears to be the one who did not suffer.

Hao Wenxin looked like a beggar on the street, which was really strange.

"Have you been there all this time?"

Luo Jingqian didn't believe it.

When they were secretly observing Han Yueshi, she clearly said that it was dark and airless inside, and she couldn't stand staying there all the time.

"It seems like I went out at one point, but someone else was guarding it. The windows were all nailed shut, and all I could hear was birdsong. It was quite cold there, much colder than the capital."

Wenxin hugged her arms tightly, her eyes darting around, and pleaded:

"Please let me go back to the First Prince's residence! That's all I know."

Qingyun smiled sarcastically but remained silent.

"My elder brother announced a few days ago that Consort Hao had died suddenly, and he won't let you go back!" The fourth prince looked at her with pity. "You're a dead person now."

These words excited Hao Wenxin. She jumped up, pulled off her skirt sash, and ran straight towards the Fourth Prince.

The sudden change occurred, and although the Fourth Prince possessed martial arts skills, they were merely superficial and ineffective, making his evasion extremely difficult and embarrassing.

He rolled to the ground, and then the skirt strap tightened around his neck.

Luo Jingqian drew his sword to block, and Han Cuiyin quickly pulled him away. The two worked together seamlessly to save the Fourth Prince.

The sound of swords clashing was crisp and resonant.

It was at this moment that everyone realized the skirt sash was not made of soft, flimsy fabric.

"She is Su Tian!" At the crucial moment, Qing Yun revealed her identity, leaving everyone stunned.

Especially Qingshan.

He and Qinghe checked and found nothing wrong.

The fabric around the skirt feels like ordinary cloth, but there's something else going on inside.

The two men, their faces downcast, quickly went to help.

"Fourth Prince, you should go to the main courtyard first; it's the safest place there." After saying this, Han Cuiyin pushed him out.

"Go quickly!" Luo Jingqian shouted.

The main courtyard has some magical features, which he has already witnessed.

"..." The fourth prince had no choice but to do as he was told.

He's definitely holding us back here.

The room was cramped, and with each attack from Su Tian's skirt, the movements of the people fighting against her slowed down.

Qingyun couldn't stand it any longer, so she flicked her right hand, opened her jade fan, and began to fight Sutian.

Qingshan and Qinghe, feeling top-heavy, were kicked out of the room by Su Tian and passed out.

"Her skirt is extremely strange, be careful!" After blocking an attack for Han Cuiyin, Luo Jingqian had already noticed something was wrong.

With a slash and a sweep of her jade fan, Qingyun exchanged several blows with Sutian in no time.

"I see! You used something on your skirt sash. Let me see what it is." Qingyun grasped the sash and sniffed it lightly. "So you used herbs that make people dizzy. But these won't work on me."

Su Tian's smile abruptly stopped as she looked at Hao Wenxin's face.

"Before you swapped faces with Hao Wenxin, didn't you consider that this place is different from Yun Kingdom?"

Qingyun used a jade fan to lift her chin, her face full of mockery.

"Logically speaking, you shouldn't have made such a mistake, especially since you're an entertainer who frequents places where all sorts of people mingle. You should know these things. Unless, you're not a citizen of the Great Ye Dynasty."

As soon as Qingyun finished speaking, Sutian snatched the skirt back into her hand with force, freeing herself from control.

Suddenly, a gray bristle appeared in her hand.

"It was indeed my oversight. Women in the Great Ye Dynasty are considered inferior! In the Yun Kingdom, so what if a woman goes missing? When she returns, she can still be in charge of the household, and her husband's family would not dare to say anything."

Su Tian let out a cold laugh, and then the gray hair pierced his heart, and he disappeared completely.

"Qingyun, what's wrong?" Han Cuiyin noticed something was wrong. Qingyun stood there, stunned and motionless.

They were clearly in control just moments ago, but suddenly things turned out like this.

"Don't touch her! She's probably been tricked too. This Su Tian is unpredictable and shouldn't be underestimated." Luo Jingqian pulled Han Cuiyin back and tapped Qingyun's back several times with his sword sheath.

Qingyun glared angrily, spat out a mouthful of foul blood, and was about to fall over.

Han Cuiyin quickly went over to support him.

Luo Jingqian's face instantly darkened.

Qingshan and Qinghe woke up and stood in the room, not daring to breathe.

"Ha, she got away!" Qingyun leaned against Han Cuiyin. "If this person isn't caught, the capital won't be at peace."

"How do you know she swapped faces with Hao Wenxin?" Luo Jingqian was in a bad mood. "Aren't you supposed to be very capable? How did you let her get away?"

Qingyun sat down on the stool and said irritably:

"Even with great skill, there's always a slip-up! The key is to find that hairpin, otherwise we'll have to wait for another assassination attempt like this!"

"You know about the hairpin?" Luo Jingqian asked in surprise.

He hadn't told Cuiyin about this matter, but he knew the secret of this person's background at a glance.

"The important thing isn't the hairpin itself, but the pendant on it." Qingyun placed the jade fan on the table and took out her treasure pouch, rummaging through it.

"What pendant?" Han Cuiyin asked, puzzled.

“That pendant can hide living people, and that’s how those people appeared in the Prince’s mansion,” Qingyun explained softly.

"Lin Jiabao? She's so stupid, how could she understand something that could cost her her head?" Han Cuiyin really didn't believe it.

I initially thought Lin Jiabao was a clever person, but later I learned that it was because her mother, Princess Jialuo, was guiding her.

After marrying into the First Prince's household, she, as the principal wife, lived a life worse than that of a concubine. In less than a month, she even promoted her most capable maid to the rank of concubine.

The household remained in chaos from then on.

It wasn't until Hao Wenxin was kidnapped and Princess Jialuo intervened that the First Prince finally decided to release the news of Hao Wenxin's sudden death.

As a result, Grand Princess Ningchen fell ill for several days, and Emperor Chuyuan sent someone to visit her before she recovered.

"If you don't believe me, ask him!" Qingyun pointed at Luo Jingqian with her jade fan. "He knows the most!"

Then he snorted coldly.

Her invisibility talisman was probably used for surveillance and tracking.

“Indeed, that feather pendant was originally in Han Yueshi’s possession, and I don’t know how it ended up in Lin Jiabao’s hands. I’ll go to the palace now; I should be able to find out.”

Lin Jiabao was sent to the palace without anyone else knowing, and Princess Jialuo's side couldn't be disturbed.

"My lord, Su Tian has gone to the Mo residence, and I cannot enter." Qingyun suddenly appeared in the room.

He had been using the invisibility talisman to track them, but last time he accidentally let Su Tian and his group escape.

They thought they had it all figured out, but they still couldn't catch the person.

"That person wasn't Su Tian, ​​it was Hao Wenxin. She doesn't know martial arts, yet you still couldn't catch her?"

No sooner had Luo Jingqian finished speaking than Qingyun retorted loudly, "How could that be! Hao Wenxin doesn't know martial arts, and that person's lightness skill is excellent; she almost overtook him."

"That Hao Wenxin must be under control." Qingyun twirled her jade fan with her fingertips, her expression returning to normal.

"Controlled? Han Yueshi controlled it? Or Su Tian?" Han Cuiyin couldn't help but ask.
