The reborn prince's little palace maid in the apocalypse

Yan Sinian stroked Xiaoba's head.

"As long as you want to do something in this world, you can do it. You don't have to worry about anyone, including me."

His words rang softly in Xiao Ba's ears.

Xiao Ba's cat's eyes widened for a moment as Yan Sinian spoke.

At this time, An Jiu from the Eastern Palace came over with his attendants, the guards, and Mantou and others.

With such a big incident happening in the garden, the entire Li Mansion was in action, and naturally, the people living in the quiet and secluded East Palace also received the news.

Since this concerns the crown prince, who would dare to neglect it?

The Li brothers, who were about to ask the Crown Prince to leave, simply shut up at this moment.

An Jiu ordered two attendants to place a rosewood armchair on a relatively flat open space and invited Yan Sinian to sit down.

Yan Sinian looked at the Li brothers standing motionless in front of him for a while, and said in a cold voice: "Prince Consort Li, what are you waiting for?"

[What are you waiting for? You're not waiting for anything?] Li Zhigong glanced at Yan Sinian in confusion.

"I wonder what your Highness means by this?" Prince Consort Li, who was stunned by Yan Sinian's words, had to bow and speak.

"Someone killed someone and dumped the body in your Li family. It's so lawless, why didn't you report it to the police?"

"Report...report to the police? Yes, yes, we must report to the police."

Li Zhishen quickly signaled to the butler behind him to report to the police.

The housekeeper trotted along, complaining in his heart, "The term 'reporting to the authorities' is just an excuse for the noble families to scare people when they oppress the common people. I didn't expect that the prince would report to the authorities when he encountered something. Considering that the Li clan has a princess who is getting married. Not to mention the death of a girl in the clan, even a few years ago when there was an internal fight in the clan and more than a dozen people died, no one mentioned reporting to the authorities. Today is really new."

Although he had not thought about reporting the matter to the police, since Yan Sinian had already brought it up, Li Zhishen still had to say something about this situation.

"Your Highness, if something like this happens, I will definitely report it to the authorities. However, it is too late now, so I will file a complaint with the government office after daybreak."

Yan Sinian lowered his eyebrows and said nothing, as if he didn't even hear what Li Zhishen said.

The scene fell into embarrassment for a while.

Mantou gave Anjiu a look, signaling Anjiu to speak.

Seeing the head of the Li family making such excuses in front of His Highness, as His Highness's close eunuch, if you don't speak up at this time, can you just wait for His Highness to fight back?

However, Mantou did not expect that Anjiu did receive her gaze, but responded with a confused look.

Mantou sighed in the dark, every profession has its own specialty...

The hem of his clothes moved slightly and he walked slowly forward.

Mantou bowed to the Li brothers.

"May I ask Master Li, the murderer has not been found yet. If we wait until dawn to report to the authorities, what will happen if the murderer strikes again? Master Li, do you not care about your own relatives and servants, nor do you care about the Crown Prince who is here in your house?"

He didn't talk much, and Mantou spoke slowly and softly, not even loudly.

But Li Zhishen was so frightened that sweat appeared on his forehead. If the palace maid's words continued, it would be more than just reporting to the police! The troops should be dispatched. Is the murderer who appeared in front of the prince a murderer? He is an assassin!

When Mantou opened his mouth to question, Yan Sinian called Wei Rong behind him and whispered a few words to him.

Although Xiao Ba did not describe the murderer's detailed appearance, she was a female, estimated to be in her thirties, and dressed like a woman.

Yan Sinian thought that this man was good at martial arts and might be older than he looked.

So he arranged for Wei Rong to gather all the people who agreed with him in Li's house, without making it public. He asked the housekeeper for the roster and picked the people according to the roster.

"Yes!" Wei Rong responded in a low voice and was about to leave.

A shout of "The Princess is here" rang out in the distance.

Except for the people in the East Palace, everyone else turned around and bowed.

Naturally, the sedan chair that Princess Jinshan was sitting in could not be carried carelessly in front of Yan Sinian.

She got off the sedan chair outside the Moon Gate of the garden.

When she got off the sedan chair, she did not forget to glare at Aunt Cui who was about to come forward to help her.

Just this one glance made Aunt Cui dare not make any more moves.

Madam Qi, who was standing by, hurried forward to support Princess Jinshan, while Madam Cui was too embarrassed to look up.

Before, when Yingniang was talking to the eldest princess, she and Nanny Qi were by the eldest princess's side.

At that time, a sound was heard outside the rear window. She was the first to rush over and immediately caught the frightened Shiliu Niang.

When she saw Shiliu Niang wanted to shout, she twisted her neck.

Poor little girl, not even ten years old, her flower bud has withered away before it even bloomed.

The spring scenery on the branches has not yet blossomed, but has been cut off by the cold dew.

If you want to bloom, you must leave behind regrets. If you wither away, the regrets will be endless.

Nanny Cui was the first person to follow Princess Jinshan. Because of some opportunities when she was young, she was once selected into the Forbidden Dragon Guard. However, she was eliminated during the formal assessment and became a palace maid. Later, she followed Princess Jinshan.

Although her kung fu skills are not top-notch, they are completely sufficient among the women in the harem.

So over the years, Princess Jinshan has relied a lot on her.

Not only did she not have to do any chores by the princess's side, she also received a first-class salary. And because she was one of the princess's confidants, no matter where she went, countless people would flatter her.

However, in recent years, apart from accompanying the eldest princess on outings, Princess Jinshan used her less and less on weekdays.

In addition, every year there would be new young, beautiful and sweet-spoken maids who would get close to the eldest princess and make her happy, making her less noticeable.

Especially after Yiyuan appeared, the people who lived there were all surnamed Li, young ladies, and masters. Moreover, they came to pay respects to the princess every now and then, and acted cute and funny. They were not respectful to her at all, which made her dislike those young ladies. Today, one of them happened to fall into her hands, and she subconsciously killed them.

Princess Jinshan originally thought that it was the little maid who eavesdropped, but unexpectedly it was Shiliu Niang. She also had a headache for a moment, and she didn't know why this person would come to her place in the middle of the night without sleeping.

Then she heard Nanny Cui apologize, saying that she was careless and used too much force because Shiliu Niang wanted to run away and scream when she saw her.

In the current situation, it is not the time to ask detailed questions. We can only let Madam Cui send Shiliu Niang's body back and dispose of it properly.

Princess Jinshan meant to send the body back to the boudoir and arrange for people to do so. That way, tomorrow morning, whether it was an accident or death from illness, there would be an explanation.

But unexpectedly, in order to save trouble, Nanny Cui directly threw Shiliu Niang into the pond, which alarmed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
