Xiao Zhi only thought to make a move on Gu Shiyi as soon as possible. At this moment, her mother's orders and her father's warnings were all thrown to the back of her mind. Gu Shiyi could not be left alive, she had to die.

Xiao Zhi only took care of Gu Shiyi for half a day, then told Yu Shuang that she was feeling dizzy and uncomfortable. After getting Yu Shuang's nod, she left Gu Shiyi's room and returned to her own room to pretend to be asleep.

Two hours later, Xiao Zhi carefully walked out of the house and looked around at the unfamiliar environment around him. Although she did not know where she was currently, she had brought her here.

As long as she could find the imprint that she had left that day, she would be able to return to her original location. Thinking of this, the corner of Xiao Zhi's mouth rose in a pleased smile.

Everyone said that Gu Shiyi was talented, but they didn't know that she was definitely talented, but she was a hundred times, a thousand times stronger.

When Qian Mochen finds out how good she is, he will understand how terrible Gu Shiyi is.

After an hour, Xiao Zhi successfully returned to the main street of the Capital Xia. Although it was a bit longer than expected, it was worth it to know the location of Gu Shiyi's courtyard.

The next step, she had to return to the General's Hall and take the thing that her mother had left for her before she left. As long as she had that thing, she would worry about Gu Shiyi not dying.

Xiao Zhi carefully avoided the crowded area along the way, finally arriving at the walls of the backyard of the Prime Minister's Residence. With a tap of her feet, she jumped into the middle of the backyard, then once again, carefully returned to the Heavenly Falls Pavilion, entered Gu Shiyi's room, walked to the bed and brushed off all the blankets on it. Flipping over the bed, a small black sandalwood box appeared in front of her.

Just as she was about to take action, she saw a man who was even more feminine and handsome than Qian Mochen, standing in front of her with a smile that was not a smile. Beside the man was a masked man dressed in red, in the masked man's hand was the small box that had been snatched away.

"Who are you, return my things!"

Xiao Zhi was furious, she bellowed at Situ Yu, what her mother had left for her, don't even think about taking it away.

"If Gu Shiyi knew that the weak Maidservant beside her was actually an expert with martial arts on her, how would she feel?"

Situ Yu pulled a chair and elegantly sat down, looking at Xiao Zhi with eyes full of mockery. If he had not investigated this woman earlier, his people would not have discovered her whereabouts and secrets on the streets.

Situ Yu couldn't help but let out a sigh. Gu Shiyi, oh Gu Shiyi, it was all for nothing that she trusted in anyone, but she didn't expect this woman she trusted so much to be so hypocritical!

"Who the hell are you people?"

Since they had revealed Gu Shiyi, she must be someone who knew them, and her secret was not allowed to be discovered. Since that was the case, they shouldn't blame her for being merciless.

After saying that, killing intent appeared in Xiao Zhi's eyes, and without waiting for Situ Yu to return, a short blade flew out from his sleeve.

Situ Yu still had a smile that was not a smile, making Xiao Zhi feel as if he was ridiculing him. Just as Xiao Zhi's short blade was about to touch Situ Yu's body, a sword pierced through, and with a single move, it cut off her attack, and the short blade flew out from her hand and reached the corner of the room.

Xiao Zhi was also forced to the corner of the bed by the sword aura, she stared at the two people in front of him vigilantly, in her heart she was analyzing the strength of both sides, planning their next attack.

"Sword mark!"

With just a glance from Situ Yu, the red clothed swordsman at the side understood her meaning and immediately leaped behind Xiao Zhi. In three moves, Xiao Zhi was forced to kneel in front of Situ Yu, and a painful groan was immediately emitted from her mouth.

"If it's like this, you might behave."

Seeing this, Situ Yu nodded to Xiao Zhi in satisfaction.

"Who exactly are all of you? Why are you doing this to a weak woman like me?"

Seeing that she was unable to resist, Xiao Zhi gave a pitiful look. It was too bad that with her current appearance, she would only cause Situ Yu to feel disgusted.

Situ Yu ignored her and took the small box from the sword mark. He gently opened it and took out a red cork that was the size of a palm and releasing a sweet smell.

"What is this?"

Situ Yu took the wooden stick and sniffed it, and although the voice was soft, it carried power that Xiao Zhi could not refuse.

"That's the incense!"

Xiao Zhi was pitiful, her voice sounding as though she had suffered a great injustice, but in her heart, she was praying that she did not recognize it.

"Is that so? "Liar, but you're going to get your tongue cut off!"

Situ Yu moved his face closer to Xiao Zhi, staring intently into her eyes. His voice was filled with limitless charm, causing Xiao Zhi's body to uncontrollably tremble.

"It's really the incense of the smokeout!"

Xiao Zhi's expression became even more wronged, she gritted her teeth and emphasized once more, but in her heart, she was sure that this person did not know the true usage of this cork.

"Sword mark, she lied!"

Situ Yu retreated back, lazily leaning on the back of the chair, looking sideways at Xiao Zhi, not concealing the killing intent in his eyes.

The sword wound understood what Xiao Zhi meant and walked in front of her. She pinched her chin and used even more strength, causing Xiao Zhi's tongue to involuntarily stick out.

Situ Yu waved his hands, the sword mark released Xiao Zhi, and after she obtained her freedom, her shoulders dropped, and she fell to the ground, crying.

"I'll tell you the truth, I'll tell you the truth."

This was the first time she had faced such a threat, the first time she had felt fear from anyone other than her father. At this moment, nothing was as important as her life.

"Speak!"

Situ Yu smiled yet again, a smile that was not a smile on his face. He placed one leg gracefully on the other, his actions seemingly unelegant yet filled with elegance and respect.

"This thing is called the Red Soft Incense. If you burn this thing in your room, people will become stupid after hearing it for seven days. They will die in a month and they will not be able to find any clues."

Xiao Zhi's face was filled with fear and trepidation. This object was burning in the exact same way as the sandalwood scent, it was the formless, deadly poison used to kill people.

"Oh, who are you planning to use it on?"
