981 Fate (1)


    Prince Rui’s mansion was especially unusual tonight.


    The servantsing and going in the courtyard all had solemn expressions, as if the dynasty was on the verge of copse. Even the wind at night seemed to be especially cold, making people shiver.


    Tie Yi walked up to the young man and said in a low voice, “Master, we can’t find him.”


    Xie Jingxing nced at him. The calmer his expression was, the fiercer the storm brewing in his eyes, as if it was about to engulf Tie Yi in the next moment.


    !!


    Tie Yi shuddered. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Gao Yang walk out. Gao Yang still smelled of alcohol. It was obvious that he had been called over from the banquet. Fortunately, he was still sober. He walked straight over and said, “Princess Consort is fine. The stab is not fatal. She’s already been bandaged. She probably fainted from shock. She’s taken some calming medicine and will wake up tomorrow morning.”


    Xie Jingxing’s tense body rxed a little, and Tie Yi heaved a sigh of relief. Gao Yang continued, “However, Pei Lang’s injury is very serious. The knife wound was too deep, and he bled a lot. I’ve done everything I can. Whether he can survive or not depends on him.”


    “It seems like Mr. Pei took the blow for Madam,” Tie Yi said carefully.


    “That’s not a good thing.” Gao Yang nced at Xie Jingxing, who had a cold expression, and said, “If he really dies… With Princess Consort’s personality, she will feel guilty for the rest of her life.”


    Shen Miao hated owing people favors the most. If she owed anyone anything, she would definitely repay them. No one could imagine what would happen to Shen Miao if Pei Lang did not survive.


    “Is the city gate sealed?” Xie Jingxing asked.


    “It’s sealed.” Tie Yi said, “Everyone from the ck Feather Army has been mobilized. Madam didn’t even have time to call for help. That person must be a trained killer.”


    Xie Jingxing said, “Capture him alive and beat him to death.”


    “Then what about the person behind the scene?”


    “Investigate!”


    After Tie Yi left, Xie Jingxing looked at Gao Yang and said, “Stay here tonight.”


    Gao Yang said, “I know.” He nced at Xie Jingxing again. “You should rest first.”


    Not far from Bixiao Restaurant, Princess Consort Rui was attacked. This person was really too bold. Not only that, but he probably did not even care about Prince Rui. The only person in the capital who was so bold was probably the Lu family. However, the Lu family would not target Shen Miao, so this incident became very puzzling.


    No matter what, this was a signal. The force hiding in the dark finally couldn’t hold back anymore and began to make a move, and the first person they chose to get rid of in Prince Rui’s mansion was Shen Miao.


    However, Xie Jingxing was not in the mood to think about this. He walked into the room and saw Shen Miao lying on the bed. Her face was pale, and her eyes were closed. Her eyshes were lowered, making her look very weak.


    He sighed and sat down by Shen Miao’s bed.


    There was also a food basket on the table in the room. Inside was the noodles that Shen Miao instructed the kitchen to specially make for him. However, now, the noodles were probably too sticky to eat.
