"No …" It was the woman who answered.

The woman's voice was crisp, seemingly filled with fear.

Xi Mengyao turned to look, but as she was speaking, she suddenly seemed to sense something, and looked towards Xi Mengyao.

Xi Mengyao was shocked, she did not expect that she was someone that she was familiar with.

It was not a woman, but a reading partner who was by the crown prince's side.

She had only heard that the reading partner had been by her side ever since she was young. She didn't need to study to split up; almost all of them were officials of the imperial court. However, he didn't know what had happened, but this person still hadn't left.

The man glanced at Xi Mengyao but did not recognize him. He quickly turned his head away.

Xi Mengyao did not know what she was planning to do, so she put down the alcohol, pretended to watch the show, and quietly went out to the side to watch.

He then saw that person arrogantly lead a group of guards and scatter in all directions as if he was looking for something.

After looking for a while, they suddenly dashed towards a corner!

Xi Mengyao was also confused, she had not seen anyone at that place ever since she came, and up till now, she had not seen anyone.

Only after carefully looking at the crowd did she realize that there were two more people in the corner. They looked like beggars.

However, they were all covering him with black robes. It looked like he was about the same as the ones she had seen in the residence earlier!

She frowned and watched quietly.

The man surrounded the two of them and bellowed, "Who are you? You have repeatedly come to our prince's mansion to cause trouble. Just what are your intentions? "

When that person spoke, his arrogant and prideful attitude made Xi Mengyao want to go over and beat her up.

However, as a precaution, she still did not say anything. She just quietly watched from the side.

He then saw that the man had actually lifted up the man's black robe. When he looked at it, he was very surprised!

Xi Mengyao was even more shocked, because that face was exactly the same as the one Xi Mengyao saw that night!

The entire face was full of holes. Without any concealment, it just appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

That person on the other hand, shrank his neck and said softly: "I, I did not do it on purpose. I was ordered by Crown Princess Jing."

Xi Mengyao hid at the side and saw that the little girl was crying and convulsing. Her words were intermittent, but these words were spoken very clearly, making it easy for people to understand what she was saying.

"Interesting." Xi Mengyao stood at the side and watched for a while, immediately understanding in her heart.

She sneered as she was about to leave. However, when she turned around, she saw that the head guard seemed to be communicating with the young maid. However, the conversation between the two of them was very secretive.

She could see that there was a tacit understanding between the two of them. It seemed that there were two different people.

Xi Mengyao thought that this was definitely not just to frame her, there must be other intentions behind this, if not why would she make such a big fuss about it.

And this person seemed to be...

She looked at the black robe and thought about the strange mysterious cult in her heart. She also stopped her steps and couldn't help but mix into the side of the tavern.

However, they weren't talking about her as she had imagined. They were talking about her.

This group of people were instead discussing about this maid.

"Did you see the scar?"

The person who answered was a rough looking man who didn't seem to know anything and didn't bother to hide it at all. "What is that? Why is it so ugly?"

"Be careful!"

Xi Mengyao shook her head at the side. She looked cautious and cautious towards this and was truly a bit unhappy, but she was only listening to what was going on in the corner, which meant that there was a limit to what she could do.

"I heard from someone yesterday that this is an organized group. A group of people seems to have maligned in their thoughts, as if many people have been viciously attacked by them!"

He then coughed and lowered his voice, and after seeing that there was no one left, he said softly, "I heard that they were not like this before, but half a month ago, they brought a Sorceress from the Western Regions over, and each of them had this scar. I wonder, what exactly is this thing?"

"What?" Then why did that person say that he is a servant of the Crown Princess Jing? "

"Lower your voice!" Then, she gritted her teeth and said to him, "These people aren't good people, you better not mess with them. As for her identity, who knows what it is, it might be a trap."

"Where did you hear about this? That Crown Princess Jing is the trash of Prime Minister's Mansion, why would you frame her?"

The sturdy guy disapproved. Previously, they had only heard that Xi Mengyao was extremely ugly, but later on, someone said that her face was better.

Those people couldn't believe that the person they looked down upon in the past had suddenly become a better person than them.

Xi Mengyao was indifferent to their conversation, but in her heart, she was annoyed by them.

They seemed to know exactly what this group of people were, and they were only concealing it. As the two of them spoke, disagreements even arose, and they were even discussing the matters of the imperial government.

Apart from these few people, the rest of them had all come to watch the show.

Everyone was talking, but not a single word was useful.

Xi Mengyao struggled for a while, but could only sigh. She looked in front of her, at the servant who was still crying.

At this moment, someone's question caught her attention.

"Speaking of which, this person only said that he had something important to do yesterday. He might even say this."

After Xi Mengyao heard this, she immediately perked up her ears and turned to look. She could only see the person who spoke from the window.

They were two people who looked very ordinary. They didn't look like they belonged to any rich or powerful family. They were just a bunch of guys who didn't know how to learn, even though they had some money.

He had no idea where these people had heard the news from.

"That little girl seemed to have been bribed by someone. I heard that when she went out to buy vegetables before, she said that she received a sum of silver." When the two of them spoke, they seemed to be even more careful.

Xi Mengyao retreated a step without batting an eyelid, then heard someone say: "These words of yours, I remember that her little brother wants to get married, is it because of this risk, then why is he following that group of people?"

"Don't say that. I heard that group of people are very strange …" As the man spoke, he seemed to have thought of something and paused for a moment. Then, he shook his head and said, "Don't ask anymore. You can't let others hear this!"

After saying that, he grabbed the person and headed to the other side.

After Xi Mengyao heard this, she almost vomited blood.

But she was in the bar, and she was outside. If that were the case, wouldn't it be even more obvious that she was eavesdropping?

Helpless, he could only hide at the side, not allowing others to see him and think.
