The Shunqing Marquis' Mansion was surrounded, under the pretext of protection, but in reality it was house arrest.

Jiang Qingwu refused to believe it and insisted on giving it a try, so he went out with a drastic move.

But as soon as he stepped out of the door, two big knives were placed on his neck.

Jiu Ye, who was not far away, walked over with a strange smile, "Miss Jiang, godfather said that you should have a good rest in the mansion today."

“Lu Jiuye, you think you can stop me with just two swords?!”

Jiang Qingwu looked disdainful, but as soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen large knives were stretched out towards him.

"Ah..." Jiang Qingwu trembled, clenched his back teeth, and returned home with hatred.

Seeing this, Wanyue looked around and moved closer to Jiang Qingwu.

"Girl, please stop struggling. The Regent's men are everywhere here. We can't get out..."

Jiang Qingwu pondered for a moment and clenched his fists secretly, "Where is Luo Ming?"

"Everything is ready. They left early and will be on North Street now."

Jiang Qingwu sighed and let out a bitter laugh.

"This Yan Xiuchen probably thought I was going to meet Yan Lin, so he resorted to this desperate measure."

"Girl, what should we do? What should we do about that?"

"Yes, of course." Jiang Qingwu looked around and strode towards the backyard.

At midnight, Jiang Qingwu, dressed in black and masked, broke into a mansion with the assassins she trained.

There were nearly twenty assassins in the house, and because Jiang Qingwu killed them so suddenly, most of them didn't react.

"Kill..." Luo Ming waved his hand, and the masked assassins behind him rushed in quickly.

Jiang Qingwu stood at the door, looking at the people fighting, and took the torch from Wanyue's hand, "Leave the leader alive."

"Yes, I know." Wanyue agreed and drew her sword and left.

In a short while, everyone killed them all.

Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Jiang Qingwu's mind was filled with the night when the Jiang family was massacred.

"Yan Lin, this is just the beginning. Just wait for me. I want you to pay with blood..."

Jiang Qingwu clenched the knife in his hand and then threw the torch over.

And it wasn't just here, seven such places in the city, including restaurants, brothels, and mansions were engulfed in fire at the same time.

Flames shot up into the sky, rumbling and illuminating the night sky.

At that time, in the Regent's Palace.

Jiu Ye covered his neck and his personal guards as he stood in front of Yan Xiuchen, looking dejected and not daring to look up.

"Being beaten again?" Yan Xiuchen looked at Jiu Ye with a sullen face.

Jiu Ye felt guilty and indignant, so he lowered his head and hummed.

Seeing this, Yan Xiuchen turned to look at the guard beside him and said, "You say."

"Miss Jiang was wearing night clothes. When she left, she asked me to tell Your Majesty that she was not going to see Yan Lin and asked you not to stop her."

"Godfather, why don't I go and take a look..." Jiuhan said.

"No need for that. If she says it's not, then it's definitely not." Yan Xiuchen raised his hand and sent away the guards beside him. Seeing the chessboard on the table, he turned to look at Jiu Ye.

"Jiuye, tell me how to get rid of the Third Prince's gang."

Jiu Ye was stunned for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "Why not get rid of Shen Wanrong? Once Shen Wanrong dies, there will be no marriage. Without the Jiang family and the Shen family, the Third Prince will be alone and powerless."

Jiuhan sighed helplessly, with a look of disgust on his face, "The Third Prince is the adopted son of the Imperial Concubine. Whether Shen Wanrong is there or not, the Shen family will help the Third Prince."

"Then kill the imperial concubine!" Jiu Ye blurted out.

Jiuhan was dumbfounded, "If we kill the imperial concubine, the Shen family will definitely not let it go."

"Then get rid of the Shen family!" Jiu Ye continued. This time, as soon as he finished speaking, Jiu Han slapped him on the back of his head.

"Duke Shen has been a veteran of three dynasties. The forces in the court are intertwined and intertwined. Can we kill them all?"

Jiu Ye opened his mouth and lowered his head in an instant, "My son is reckless."

"Killing is not wrong, but... who to kill." Yan Xiuchen murmured in a low voice, and then he collected the remaining chess pieces on the board with a clatter, "Kill Yan Lin, and it's all over."

Jiuye and Jiuhan heard the voice and looked at Yan Xiuchen in disbelief.

Yan Xiuchen pays the most attention to royal family affection. Not only his nephew Yan Lin, but even other members of the royal family are very protective of him.

Otherwise, he would not have willingly fought for the emperor for so many years without any intention of usurping the throne.

But now he could say that he would kill Yan Lin, which really surprised Jiuhan and the others.

"How is the matter that the king asked you to investigate?"

Jiuhan came back to his senses and said, "Everyone is dead, only one is still alive, and he has returned to Shu. My son has sent people to search for him."

"It's just... Godfather, do you want to find out the truth about Miss Jiang and our ambush at the Xiling battlefield?"

"It's not the truth, it's the evidence." Yan Xiuchen said with a firm look.

"Your Highness..." Someone suddenly reported from outside the door.

Jiuhan looked at Yan Xiuchen and called him in, "Come in."

"Your Highness, someone has set fire in the city. A quarter of an hour ago, seven mansions, restaurants, and brothels in the city caught fire at the same time. The Jingfu Division has already sent people over."

"And... Miss Jiang, she climbed over the wall and came in!"

Yan Xiuchen was stunned, and suddenly understood something.

"This girl can't stay here for a moment."

"Miss Jiang? Godfather, why did Miss Jiang set fire? Is there something wrong with these seven places?"

Yan Xiuchen didn't answer, but secretly raised the corners of his lips and raised his hand to signal Jiuhan.

"Don't worry, godfather. The guards in the mansion have said that they can't see Miss Jiang."

Having said that, Jiuhan grabbed Jiuye and dragged him out of the door.

"Hey, brother, don't pull me, we have to stay and protect our godfather..."

The first time is new, the second time is familiar. Jiang Qingwu, wearing a nightgown and holding a knife, walked to the window of Yan Xiuchen as if he was in an empty place.

There was a "click" sound, and Yan Xiuchen heard it and looked towards the rear window.

Jiang Qingwu threw the knife in first, and then jumped in through the window.

She looked outside furtively, but when she turned around, she met Yan Xiuchen's gaze.

"Haha, I haven't slept yet..." Jiang Qingwu smiled awkwardly and looked around at the ground.

"Down there." Yan Xiuchen pointed at Jiang Qingwu, and Jiang Qingwu then realized that he had used too much force and the knife slipped under the table.

"Well, it's not important, just leave it there."

Yan Xiuchen sneered secretly, and put away the golden bronze fan with a rustle. "You sneaked into the palace with a knife and dressed like this, what if you want to kill me?"

Jiang Qingwu was stunned, shook his head repeatedly, walked over, and leaned close to him.

"I missed you and was anxious to see you, so I didn't change my clothes."

Looking at the little face that rushed to him, Yan Xiuchen's heart tightened, "Miss me? Want me to die?"

"You, don't say such things. I came here specially to explain to you."

Jiang Qingwu said this with a look of grievance, he stood up and sat on a chair beside him, hesitating and lowered his head pitifully.

Yan Xiuchen looked at Jiang Qingwu and felt pleasantly surprised.

She fights decisively on the battlefield, and usually pretends to be a lady from a noble family.

Although he had always known that Jiang Qingwu was unruly and straightforward, he had never seen her like this in front of him.

"I... I just killed someone." Jiang Qingwu murmured in a low voice, as if he had made a mistake.

Yan Xiuchen also came back to his senses, "Kill him if you want, why, he's not dead yet? Let me finish him off for you?"
