Chapter 198 The Lan Family Dare Not, Who Is the Murderer?

Liu Yanyan was supported by Yuzhu and slowly returned to the house. Thinking of Zhou Yanze's promise, a warm feeling passed through her heart.

But he still didn't want to believe the news Yan Ze had found out, that the Lan family would hire someone to kill someone just for a playboy named Lan Hu, so he said to Liu Wu with a cold face, "Go and arrange for someone to investigate what happened yesterday. You must investigate it thoroughly."

Liu Wu bowed respectfully and said, "Okay, Princess. I will go now and check everything carefully."

Liu Yanyan said, "Liu Wu, wait a moment. I have something to tell you."

Liu Wu turned back in a daze, bowed and said, "Princess, what do you want me to do? I will definitely do it."

Liu Yanyan raised her lips slightly, walked to the dressing table, took out the jewelry box, picked up more than 20 silver bills, and handed them to Liu Wu, "To the guards and servants from yesterday. They worked hard yesterday and have been protecting me and the prince. We can't let them down."

Liu Wu took the banknote, his voice trembling with excitement, "Thank you, Princess, for the reward. Thank you, Princess, for the reward. I will do everything that Princess has asked me to do. We servants have always been grateful to you and the prince, how could we be disappointed? Our loyalty to you and the prince is evident to all."

Liu Yanyan then smiled, waved her delicate hand and said, "Go away! I'll call you if there's anything else."

Only then did Liu Wu retreat respectfully.

Yuzhu looked at Liu Wu's back with disdain in her eyes, "Princess, why did you give so much reward silver? Didn't the prince give it to me? Why are you giving it back?"

Liu Yanyan raised her eyes to look at Yuzhu and said in a light voice, "The prince gives differently from me. If they are given the reward silver, they will be more dedicated when something happens in the future."

Yuzhu shook her head. "You and the prince are one. Why do you have to be so clear about it? Princess, you worry too much. How much money will this waste!"

A trace of heartache flashed across Liu Yanyan's eyes, and she sighed, "You! You! You are too young to understand. The Regent will always be the Regent, and he is their master."

They all surrounded the Regent when the assassination happened yesterday, but what about me? I can be abandoned, and none of them really want to protect me.

Yuzhu shook her head, "Princess, you and the prince are a family! It's not good to be too clear-cut!"

Liu Yanyan looked at the somewhat naive Yuzhu, but did not speak. Her heart was filled with helplessness. She murmured to herself that if she did not give him money, the next time something happened, there might still be no one standing in front of her. Money was the real thing. "Go get some hawthorn cakes. I'm craving for it. Go ahead!"

Yuzhu then bowed respectfully and said, "Princess, I will go right away."

Liu Yanyan looked at Yuzhu's back and chuckled, "This silly girl is so stupid. Who can she live happily with in the future? Who doesn't put profit first? If you want people to do things for you willingly, who would be willing to do it without some benefits? Human nature is selfish!"

After saying that, she stood up and walked to the dressing table, picked up the lip balm on the table, and gently applied it on her lips. Her eyes flashed with coldness, "Who on earth wants to kill me? Let me find out. I will make sure he dies a miserable death and leave him with no complete body."

Liu Yanyan let out a long sigh, stood up and walked to the window, looking at the hot sunshine outside. A circle of halo formed on the tiles. The whole corridor was bathed in sunshine, beautiful like a fairyland.

Soon Yuzhu came out from the light holding a plate of hawthorn cakes. "I pay my respects to the princess."

Liu Yanyan looked back at her and said with a smile, "Stand up."

Yuzhu stood up and replied, "Princess, I brought this cake all the way here. It has not passed through anyone else's hands."

Liu Yanyan then picked up a piece of pink hawthorn cake and ate one gently. "It's sweet and sour, and it's delicious."

Yuzhu bowed happily and said, "I would like to thank you on behalf of Master."

Liu Yanyan took out a 20-liang silver note, handed it to Yuzhu and said, "Take it to the pastry chef later."

Yuzhu then took the banknote, put it in her sleeve, and stood beside the princess holding the cakes.

Liu Yanyan finished a piece of cake, took another piece and said, "Put the cake down! I won't eat it after I finish this one."

Yuzhu then bowed and said, "Okay, Princess." She stepped back, turned into the house and placed the cakes on the table.

Liu Yanyan finished the pastry in her hand, which tasted sour and sweet and very delicious. After washing her hands with the hot water that Yuzhen had brought, she sat down at the table, picked up the legal code and looked at it one by one, studying it carefully.

In the afternoon, the sun shines on the earth, bringing up a layer of summer heat.

In the government office, Liu Yanyan wiped the sweat off her forehead with a handkerchief. Looking at her house which had become a ruin, she spoke helplessly to Zhang, the chief official, "Master Zhang, where is the new house you arranged for me? I'll go and take a look."

Zhang, the chief, bowed and said warmly, "Princess, I will lead the way for you. This way, please."

Liu Yanyan nodded and followed Zhang to the side. After walking a few steps, she looked at the familiar house and said, "Isn't this Mr. Zhang's room? How can you give it to me? Just arrange another room for me. It's not good for me to take away someone else's love."

Zhang Zhushi then spoke in embarrassment, "Princess, you can stay in this room. I have already moved to the back. The courtyard in this government office is not big, so I can only arrange for you to stay here. The Ministry of Justice is still investigating the case in the room next to it, so I don't know how long it will take to repair this room."

Liu Yanyan looked at him and could only nod and say, "Then I'll have to trouble Master Zhang to have you live in the backyard for a while."

After that, he handed a silver note to Zhang, "I didn't bring anything else today, please don't mind it, Master Zhang."

Lord Zhang bowed and took the banknote, a look of joy appeared on his face. "Thank you, Princess, for your reward. Thank you, Princess, for your reward."

Liu Yanyan waved her hand to signal him to get up, then walked into the house. Seeing the house that had been decorated completely according to her preferences, she nodded slightly.

After walking around the room, he opened the window to let in some air in disgust, muttering to himself, "What a disgusting smell, it's like something rotten."

Liu Wu stood beside the princess and said, "Princess, what do you want me to do?"

Liu Yanyan then calmed down, took out a purse filled with flower petals, and said to Liu Wu, "Put this in the incense burner. The smell in this room is too bad. Tell someone to clean it again."

Liu Wu took the sachet, put the lotus petals into the incense burner little by little, and walked outside to the guards beside him and said, "You heard what the princess said. Put two people to guard the door, and the others to fetch water and clean the inside again, and clean it carefully."

Upon hearing this, the other new guards bowed and responded with "yes", and then dispersed the next second.

Liu Yanyan looked at their agile speed, nodded secretly, took a file and walked to the stone bench outside, reading it carefully.

After a long while, Liu Wu bowed respectfully and said, "Princess, the room has been cleaned. You can go back and rest."

The huge drum outside the yamen sounded again, boom, boom, boom, boom.

Liu Yanyan put down the file and hurried to the court.
