Chapter 38
Soon many people gathered towards the alley.

"Who is this dead?"

"Don't worry about who died. Look at the wounds on his body. He must have been killed in a vendetta!"

As soon as he said this, the crowd gasped:
"With so many knives, there must be so much hatred and resentment!"

"Don't just look at it, report it to the official immediately!"

Soon, a group of officers and soldiers came, drove away the people gathered, and blocked the alley.

After the officials inspected the scene, they took the body away directly.

Although the officers and soldiers blocked the news as quickly as possible, someone still recognized the identity of the body.

Among the peripheral crowd, a figure quickly disappeared into the crowd after seeing the face of the corpse carried out by the government.

He rushed straight to a remote house.

"You mean people don't die in your hands in the end?"

Xiao Qian casually put on a coat, revealing the inner clothes, and leaned lazily on the table by the window with his bare feet.

His face originally showed a look of laziness that he had just woken up from, but after hearing the secret guard's report, his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp.

The secret guard couldn't help but tremble and quickly replied:
"At that time, I thought he was just an ordinary official, but it turned out that this man was secretive and had great martial arts skills. In addition, his entourage was determined to fight to the death, so he escaped."

"When my subordinates found him this morning, he had been stabbed several times and died in an alley."

Listening to the secret guard's report, Xiao Qian couldn't help but frown.

Could it be that besides them, there are other people who are also hunting Wang Qin?

Who is this Wang Qin? There are so many people who want to kill him?

But right now...

Xiao Qian put his fingers on his knees and tapped them lightly.

"Can you find out who killed Wang Qin?"

The secret guard lowered his body and said, "My subordinates did not find any clues in the alley. Please forgive me, master."

At that time, Wang Qin had already been hit by a poisonous knife. When he finished killing his entourage and went to find someone, it was already raining.

All traces of his escape were washed away by the rain, so they could only search everywhere nearby. They searched all night but could not find his hiding place.

When he heard the noise again, he was already dead in the alley. He even blended into the crowd and went in to identify the body.

It is indeed Wang Qin.

Xiao Qian was so angry that he laughed.

He lowered his head and turned the ring on his hand, with a gloomy expression on his face:

"Are you still qualified to ask for forgiveness? Not only did you fail to kill him, but you also allowed a seriously injured person to escape from your hands, and he escaped under your noses. Now that he has been killed first, you still Do you have the nerve to come back to me and beg for mercy?"

Although as long as Wang Qin dies in the end, he can still conclude the deal with Zhao Yuan.

After all, Wang Qin's death was also caused by him first sending people to assassinate him, but after all, this person did not really die in the hands of his people.

This was simply an insult to Xiao Qian.

He is very unhappy now. He feels as if he is giving someone else's wedding dress and being robbed of his head.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. When he saw the secret guard still standing dumbly, he kicked him on the shoulder.

The secret guard was unprepared and was kicked over for a long distance, but he immediately crawled to Xiao Qian's feet and kowtowed:

"Please punish the master!"

"Get lost! A bunch of useless trash!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the secret guard got up and ran out to receive the punishment.

Xiao Qian was so angry that he punched the edge of the window, turned around, put down his coat, and paced back and forth in the room with bare feet.

After a moment, he called the guard in black: "Go and find out who killed Wang Qin last night. Once you find out who killed Wang Qin, kill him directly." Since he has the guts to pick on him, then he can't eat it. Walk around!
At this moment, Zhao Yuan, who had successfully rushed back to his mansion in the middle of the night, was sleeping soundly when he suddenly shivered as if he had a nightmare.

At this time on weekdays, she would have already gotten up.

There was no way, she had only slept for less than an hour or two, and she encountered a lot of things last night. It was strange that she wanted to wake up on time now.

But the people in the mansion don’t know!

The four maids were waiting outside the house and did not dare to go in without hearing the summons from inside.

If it were before, they would definitely go in and take a look.

But Mo Qi's penalty, although it just swept the door, was enough to make the other three wary for a while.

Uncle An also learned that Zhao Yuan had not gotten up yet, and after ordering breakfast to be postponed for a while, he hurried towards Zhao Yuan's bedroom.

Seeing the four maids standing at the door, worry flashed across his face, and he walked over and reached out to knock on the door:
"Miss, are you awake?"

Inside, Zhao Yuan covered her ears in pain, but the knocking on the door kept coming.

She opened her eyes suddenly, and just as she was about to get angry, she heard Uncle An's voice.

Thinking something urgent had happened, he straightened his clothes, got up and opened the door.

"What's wrong, Uncle An?"

Wu Lianan glanced at Zhao Yuan up and down and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he was safe.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Yuan looked confused: "No, why does Uncle An ask that?"

"Isn't this past the point where you usually get up? Isn't it that I'm afraid you'll get sick if there's no movement at all?"

Zhao Yuan reacted immediately, looked at the four maids standing aside, who also had worried faces, and immediately waved her hands.

"Nothing, nothing, I just didn't sleep well because of the thunder yesterday, so I stayed in bed a little bit today."

"Since Miss is fine, I'll go down and get busy. Please let Miss into the house quickly. It's still a little cold outside."

After sending Wu Lian'an away, the four maids also entered the house and started working.

Zhao Yuan couldn't sleep either, so he simply let them wait on him.

When Mo Hua was about to make the bed, he was immediately stopped by Zhao Yuan:
"Don't rush to clean up the ink paintings now. Tian Chao, just take them out and change them later."

Hearing this, Mo Hua stepped away.

Zhao Yuan pushed the four of them away and walked over to pick up the cyan porcelain bottle under the jade pillow.

During breakfast, Zhao Yuan sat at the table and said deliberately: "Today's minced meat porridge is good. If His Highness is awake, prepare a copy for him as well."

Hearing this, several maids glanced at Zhao Yuan tacitly.

Could it be that the princess is actually deliberately pretending to be neglecting His Highness the Fifth Prince these days?
They suddenly remembered that the reason why the princess returned to Zhao Mansion was because she was angry with His Highness the Fifth Prince?
Maybe she has lost her temper at this moment?
Although they thought so, no one dared to answer rashly. Mo Qin replied cautiously:
"I just heard from the waiter that His Highness the Fifth Prince did wake up, but when it was still dark outside, he fell asleep again."

Zhao Yuan heard this and nodded: "Since His Highness the Fifth Prince has woken up, go ahead and take the minced meat porridge and this morning's typhoid medicine and tonics. Come and call me when he wakes up."

Zhao Yuan had breakfast and then went back to the room to squint.

I don't know how long it took, but I heard the maid outside saying that Xiao Yu had woken up.

Zhao Yuan's head suddenly became clear, he raised his head and smiled.

Just wake up.

At this time, Zhao Yuan personally carried the freshly brewed medicine and had someone knock on Xiao Yu's door.

Suddenly I heard someone yawning quietly behind me.

It seemed that she was not the only one who was sneaking around in the middle of the night last night.
