The whole family went crazy after reading my mind, and I became a favorite after eating melons

Xu Zhiyan was not afraid at all and walked directly to a position about three steps away from the person before stopping.

"Who are you?"

The other party seemed to be dead, unable to move. Xu Zhiyan didn't care, so she picked up an unedged decorative sword and stabbed the other party.

The other party finally moved.

Xu Zhiyan saw her face clearly.

[It’s the algae girl next to the third prince! 】

Xu Yannan had already found out the purchase records of that type of paper. Both the fifth prince and the third prince were suspects, but Xu Zhiyan personally preferred the third prince. If someone saw him, she would put the scabbard on someone without saying a word. On the shoulder blades, forcefully press the person to the ground.

"You broke into the store to rob, right? Someone is here..."

As soon as she heard that she was about to call someone, Miss Zao struggled violently and grabbed her calf with her hand, which was so painful that she didn't even finish her words.

"Please, please don't shout, I don't want to go back..."

She was really afraid of the third prince.

He was moody, and he was hot and cold towards her. When he was good, he would hold her on his lap even when he was eating. When he was bad, she would be punished by kneeling down for an entire afternoon just for putting her left foot first in the room.

She really couldn't stand it anymore and finally ran out. She couldn't go back!
Xu Zhiyan did not expect Miss Zao to have such an attitude. Just then, there was some noise outside. She moved faster than her brain and hid Miss Zao before people came in. She sat back in front of the desk and looked at the visitor.

"The daughter of the people pays homage to His Highness the Third Prince. We have closed the business and there are all ledgers inside. Please stay here, Third Prince."

She didn't bother him.

Directly prevent people from entering the inner room.

The third prince didn't force it, he just stood at the door and looked at the inner room inch by inch.

"What is the Third Prince looking for? I don't have anything for the Third Prince."

The word "thing" made the third prince think that what he was looking for would not be here. He calmed down his emotions and greeted Xu Zhiyan with a gentle face, "I lost a cat. I thought it ran in. Sorry to bother you. See you later."

"Please don't meet me again. I am His Highness the Crown Prince's future Crown Princess. It is not appropriate for me to have too much contact with the Third Prince."

Xu Zhiyan didn't give any face at all. The emotions in the third prince's eyes became much more guarded, but he didn't even fall out on the spot.

"I am a serious prince. I have seen as many as eight thousand beauties. Miss Xu's appearance is not my favorite, so Miss Xu doesn't have to worry about anything wrong with meeting me."

This ability to distort facts almost made Xu Zhiyan vomit.

"What the Third Prince said is as if I am being sentimental. I just think this is my private domain. It would be a mistake for the Third Prince to come in without asking. Now he is trying to frame me as being happy with you. It is the most ridiculous thing in the world. !”

The third prince was refuted, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but his emotions were revealed for just a moment.

"Miss Xu's eloquence is truly well-deserved. We should have a good chat if we have the chance."

After saying that, he turned around and went out, and the servant slammed the door.

But Xu Zhiyan did not sit over, but stood there and stared at the door. She didn't know how long she looked before the secret guard jumped down from the beam and reported, "The third prince and his subordinates have left."

With these words, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just leave. Did they not leave at all just now? They were just outside the door?"

"Yes, the same posture as you, just staring at the door panel from outside."

【As expected. 】The third prince was suspicious by nature and could not easily believe her words. If she hadn't suddenly felt something was wrong just now and didn't go to see Miss Zao immediately, she would have been captured by the third prince now.

Sure enough, a difference in thought can make a world of difference.

Xu Zhiyan lowered her voice and said in a tone that only she and the secret guard could hear, "Suspicious, I think he has done too many things for his own sake. Keep an eye on him and report every move to me."

"Yes."

After giving the instructions, she went to find Miss Zao. The slender figure was huddled in a small cabinet, with a pair of deer-like eyes wide open, full of fear. She looked very pitiful, but Xu Zhiyan's expression did not soften in the slightest. Still looking at her.

"Go on, get out of here now."

This sentence frightened Miss Zao. She scrambled out in panic, knelt down in front of Xu Zhiyan and begged.

"Miss Xu, please help me. If I go out now, I will meet the Third Prince and I will die!"

"so what?"

Xu Zhiyan's indifferent question made her stunned for a moment.

"what?"

"Let me ask you, you will die if you go out now, what does that have to do with me? You just broke into the store without permission, and I happened to be here to do the accounting. I can definitely think that you want to steal the account book and you are plotting against me. Then I have no need to help you."

She is not a person with a mother's heart. Moreover, Miss Zao belongs to the third prince. Although she looks pitiful now, she keeps saying that she was oppressed by the third prince so much that she ran away. However, these are all her one-sided words. There is no credibility.

"So, Miss Zao, please leave here."

Xu Zhiyan's attitude was too tough, and Miss Zao was used to being cowardly. This time she escaped and broke into this place, which had already taken up all her courage. She didn't dare to beg any more, so she could only turn around and leave.

After she left the store and just left the East Street, she was caught by the third prince.

The palace attendant next to the third prince slapped her with such force that she fell to the ground. Her vision suddenly went dark, her mind went blank, and she was unable to move.

When he regained consciousness, he heard the palace man cursing.

My only thought was: I must be dying.

But the idea fell through.

Several people appeared out of thin air, "It's so disgraceful to beat a girl in the street!"

After leaving only these words, they snatched Miss Zao away. In a blink of an eye, there was no trace of her. The third prince's men wanted to chase her, but he called out to stop her.

"There's no need to chase her. She was hit hard just now, and she has so many problems with her body. She will definitely not survive. Moreover, judging from the physical skills of those people, they are martial arts people. They are good at escaping. If we can't catch her, let's go back. "

Having said this, the third prince was still suspicious of these few people from the world who suddenly appeared.

"Draw down the faces of those charlatans just now and find out who they are."

The palace man was a little worried.

"Your Highness, there are a lot of people in the martial arts world, and they are not handled in a standardized manner. We cannot investigate based on their faces. There are also those people who I saw clearly just now. They are dressed cheaply. They obviously do not belong to a formal sect, which makes it even harder to investigate. "

The third prince thought that this was reasonable, so he did not force anyone to get the results, but only asked them to try their best to investigate.

The palace man breathed a sigh of relief after relenting to this extent, responded quickly, and presented the results before dawn.

"Your Highness, there was a martial arts competition organized by Jianghu people in Yangzhou Prefecture recently. Although only those who have received invitations are eligible to participate, there are many people who came to watch the competition. Those people may be here to watch the competition."
