After breaking off the engagement, the daughter-in-law of the Hou family drove the boss in the capit

"Oops! The Eighth Prince was killed!"

In the middle of the night, the guards suddenly heard the frightened roar, and for a moment, everyone surrounded the Eighth Prince's carriage.

Everyone was in a panic. No one expected that the Eighth Prince would be killed suddenly. More importantly, they were not alert and didn't find out until now.

Envoys from Western Shu, you look at me, I look at you, my face is pale.

At this moment, the curtain of the carriage in the corner was gently opened. Taihe, wearing a large cloak, yawned and got out of the carriage, looking calm.

She was obviously just a woman, but the envoys all turned their attention to Taihe at this time, with expectations and pleas for help in their eyes.

The eighth prince was killed. After returning this time, each of them will bear the wrath of the Western Shu Emperor. If they are just punished, they may lose their lives.

Taihe stepped forward, leaned forward and took a look, only to see Duan Xu with his eyes still staring, looking a bit scary in the dark night.

"The Eighth Prince couldn't bear to accept the fact that his legs and feet were injured, so he committed suicide in the dark night!" Taihe said casually, with no regret, panic or fear in his tone, as if the person who died was an unknown stranger.

"Princess?" The envoy looked at Taihe in confusion. The eighth prince was assassinated at a glance.

Taihe turned around and spoke in a lazy tone, "If the eighth prince commits suicide, then His Majesty will at most reprimand you for not taking good care of you after learning about it! But if the Eighth Prince is assassinated, then you will just have to wait for His Majesty's thunderous wrath. Maybe your heads will not be saved either." Got it!"

After Taihe said this, he turned around and got into the carriage, closing the curtain.

The envoys exchanged glances with each other. They didn't have any feelings of monarch or minister towards the Eighth Prince, not to mention how much trouble the Eighth Prince's selfish behavior had brought to them. Everyone had already criticized the Eighth Prince in their hearts.

Everyone wanted to live. Now that the Eighth Prince was dead, so what if the murderer was found? In just an instant, everyone reached a consensus.

"The Eighth Prince committed suicide!" As an envoy shouted, everyone also began to mourn.

No one cared about how the Eighth Prince was assassinated. At this moment, the Eighth Prince's death had become certain. No one knows the truth about his death, and no one will seek death after returning to Xishu.

The envoys glanced at the Eighth Prince's personal guards who looked unhappy, and with just a look, those guards quickly killed those Eighth Prince's personal guards.

At this moment, Taihe was resting with her eyes squinted, holding a delicate handkerchief in her hand.

"Princess!" A very soft voice came from outside the carriage.

Taihe opened his eyes slightly and said in a leisurely tone, "Go and make Duan Xu's body look like he committed suicide. Also, if anyone wants to talk nonsense, just kill him!"

"Yes!" A respectful voice sounded outside the carriage, and the figure disappeared in an instant.

On the side of the envoy from Xishu, Taihe took care of everything and never caused any trouble or trouble to Lin Jianyue, but Lin Jianyue didn't know what Taihe had done for her.

At this time, Lin Jianyue was riding a horse and heading home, and happened to meet Cheng Shi who was riding a horse in the opposite direction.

"Cousin!" Cheng Shi quickly reined in his horse and took advantage of the moonlight to look at Lin Jianyue carefully. He was relieved when he saw that Lin Jianyue was intact, and quickly asked, "Why is it so late? But what went wrong?" After all, the two of them They split up to lead away the secret guards. Logically speaking, they should escape together, but after he left, Lin Jianyue was nowhere to be seen, so he hurriedly prepared to turn around and look for Lin Jianyue.

"It's nothing, it just took me a while. Second cousin, are you okay?" Lin Jianyue shook her head. There were some things she didn't plan to tell her second cousin, not to hide them, but because she was afraid that he would worry.

"I'm fine!" Cheng Shi said, looking at Lin Jianyue awkwardly. The two rode forward side by side, and the speed slowed down. Cheng Shi hesitated for a while and asked, "Cousin, how did you know I'm here?" Got it!"

Lin Jianyue looked at her second cousin in a funny way and shrugged, "Of course I know that my second cousin, you are a person who will exact revenge on you. How could you let Duan Xu go so easily!"

"Did I get you into trouble?" Cheng Shi looked at Lin Jianyue nervously, and quickly explained, "I knew he couldn't die in Qingyang, so I deliberately chose such a place, which is close to Xishu. And he’s not in the inn, so even if Xishu wants to settle accounts, it won’t be the fault of Dongshan Kingdom!”

Lin Jianyue looked at her second cousin who hurriedly explained, and understood that it was very rare for her second cousin to be able to hold back and think about so many pros and cons with his jealous temper.

You must know that the second cousin has always acted like a gangster, fearless of heaven and earth. It is also because of himself that the second cousin is so restrained.

"No, second cousin acted very safely this time!" Lin Jianyue praised with a smile.

"Really?" Cheng Shi didn't believe it, and his clear eyes were full of doubts. After all, his father and brother had taught him more than once, saying that he acted recklessly.

"It's absolutely true, I can still deceive my second cousin! If my second cousin kills Duan Xu in Qingyang, it will really cause trouble for me!" Lin Jianyue said with a smile.

After hearing this, Cheng Shi felt relieved and patted his chest, "Don't worry, cousin, I'm not that stupid! No matter how much I want to kill Duan Xu, I won't make it difficult for you, cousin! Cousin, you don't know, what happened just now Xu is as scared as a grandson!"

Lin Jianyue felt relieved as her second cousin excitedly recounted Duan Xu's death.

Fortunately, she and her second cousin were not estranged because of what happened last time, and judging from his appearance, he didn't seem to have any grudge against her.

The two of them drove all the way towards Qingyang. Just when they were about to enter the city, Cheng Shi suddenly stopped his horse.

Lin Jianyue looked at Cheng Shi in confusion, when Cheng Shi suddenly said, "Cousin, I'm sorry!"

Lin Jianyue looked at Cheng Shi in confusion and said suspiciously, "It's so strange, why does the second cousin apologize?"

Seeing that Lin Jianyue was so generous and didn't even pay attention to her, Cheng Shi felt even more guilty and his intestines turned green with regret.

"Last time I lost my temper with you for no reason, it was all me, bastard! I know that you are doing it for my own good, cousin. Not only did I not feel your painstaking efforts and embarrassment, cousin, but I also felt that I was looked down upon by my cousin. It was me. No! I promise, I will never do it again!" Cheng Shi's apology was sincere and not half-hearted.

During this period of time, Cheng Shi was actually struggling and feeling guilty, but he never found a chance to apologize.

But now, he found that his cousin was still protecting him from behind. He felt that if he didn't apologize, then he wouldn't be worthy of being this cousin.

Listening to Cheng Shi's apology, Lin Jianyue's smile became gentler.

"Then, I forgive my second cousin!" Lin Jianyue smiled cutely and had no grudges. The brother and sister were just like before.
