On Wan Wan's side, one of the guards ran over as soon as he saw it. She knew that as long as she was caught by this guard, she would not be able to hide the secret in her arms anymore.
Just at this moment, a troop of masked men suddenly rushed out in the dark night. With a whistle, Wang Junhua was overjoyed. Wan Wan was shocked, this group of people had already rushed over, and the situation quickly turned around. The smell of blood in the air became stronger, and Wan Wan was forced into a dead end as she watched her four warriors die.
Even though she had managed to escape to the back of the horse, she could not charge out no matter what. He could only shout loudly in the dark: "I am Princess Wan Wan, you all are not to move..."
No matter how bold they were, none of them dared to step forward. They only raised their sabers and stopped a foot away from her. Waiting for Wang Junhua's signal.
Wang Junhua clenched his teeth, and said in a low voice: "Kill, kill this scourge …"
Wan Wan screamed out in agony, and escaped with her life on the line. She had only run ten feet when three throwing knives came flying from behind. She was hit on the shoulder and on the back. She screamed and fell to the ground, dead.
A Death Soldier stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "What should we do now?"
Wang Junhua was still shaken and gasped for breath, "What else can we do? She deserves to die, immediately clean up the scene! "
The Prime Minister's Estate was on high alert tonight, not allowing anyone who wasn't related to them to move around.
Wang Junhua got off the horse carriage and went into the inner room. Qin Gui was already feeling uneasy, seeing her covered in blood, he asked in shock: Mrs. Guo, what's going on? "This old man schemed against your return and sent a deathsworn to welcome you out of fear of any mishaps …"
Wang Junhua took off his bloody jacket, tugged at his beard, and laughed sinisterly: "Old man, you finally did something right. It's your turn to take care of the aftermath."
Hearing her words, Qin Gui could not help but stomp his feet and say, "Mrs. Guo, you actually caused such a disaster?"
Wang Junhua sneered: "Now you and I are grasshoppers on a string, if you don't settle this matter properly, you're finished too. Old man, now it all depends on your ability …"
Qin Gui had always been afraid of the inside, and now was not the time for conflict either. He immediately left the place, and the Death Soldier Guild leader who received the secret order dealt with this matter overnight, and when the sun rose, he killed all of the Death Soldiers who were participating in the mission. When he returned to his bedroom, Wang Junhua had already awoken from his false nap, and was still a little worried. "Old man, did you leave any side effects?"
"Don't worry. There won't be a single leak." Even their corpses were thrown outside the city, so no one would suspect you, "Qin Gui was still afraid in the end and whispered," It's fine to kill that bitch, but she was the one who started to gossip in front of the Shangguan Family and revealed the matter of 'phase of grace'. "This slut doesn't die, sooner or later she'll become a huge threat to us …"
Wang Junhua was extremely proud: "This is called the heavens helping me, it was that bitch who came to die, last time she didn't kill her, this time she was in a rush to give her head to me. "So I can help this old man get rid of this trouble …"
"The Mrs. Guo is wise …"
Wang Junhua then told Qin Gui about the arrangements made by the Fourth Prince. When Qin Gui heard this, he would sometimes feel elated and sometimes he would ponder deeply.
Wang Junhua tugged on his beard, becoming extremely pleased with himself. "Shangguan Family, Fourth Prince, Prime Minister of the Da Song, hahaha, I didn't expect this servant to be so fortunate …"
Since Tian Wei had returned home, she had been trembling with fear the entire night when she thought of Wan Wan's adventure. She sent someone to the Princess Palace to inquire about the news the next evening when she couldn't hold it in any longer, and as expected, Wan Wan wasn't home. Even the Duke of Qin didn't know where she had gone to, he only said that she had brought a few guards with her to hunt. Because Wan Wan usually went out to hunt, her husband and family naturally did not think much of it. At night, when she had continuously sent out three groups of people without any news, she personally rushed to the Princess Palace.
Seeing the princess in such a state of panic, and seeing that Wan Wan was not going to sleep, she panicked and sent a large number of her servants to look for him. Even after finding it in the middle of the night, there was still no news. After realising that the matter was serious, Tian Wei immediately called all the guards in the Princess's residence over and began searching for Wan Wan's whereabouts, both inside and outside the Lian City. Finally, when it was almost daylight, the corpses of Wan Wan and the four warriors were found in a very remote alley outside the city. When they found out, all the valuables they had on them had been looted.
That day, when Wei Wei saw Wan Wan's face which was already drenched in blood and mud, she felt as if the entire world had collapsed.
Very quickly, the news of Wan Wan's death spread throughout the entire palace, causing a clamor throughout the imperial court. The concubines were all shocked, and Zhao Deji was also extremely shocked.
In less than three days, the 'murderer' was caught, it was a group of robbers. They admitted that they were interested in money and killed Wan Wan, but did not know that she was a Princess.
She did not eat nor drink at home for the past three days. Wan Wan's death had thrown her into a great mess, and when she heard about the culprit who caught her, she felt that this was a huge conspiracy, and it was impossible for it to be such a simple murder case.
She could not hold it in and dragged her sickly body straight to the palace, requesting to see Shangguan Family.
At this time, Zhao Deji received the news that Yang Yizhong had suffered a huge defeat. Although he was not Yue Pengju's opponent, he was more than enough to deal with Yang Yizhong, Zhang Jun and the others. After continuously fighting each other, the places that the Song Jun had originally occupied such as Yingshui, Shunchang, had once again fallen into the hands of the Golden Army. Yang Yizhong and the others had retreated, and Henan had completely fallen. Jin Wushu was the sole ruler of the open seal, and had once again used the things he had snatched to decorate the entire place beautifully.
had intentionally delayed this news by half a month in order to hear about it. It was easy to imagine just how dark he was feeling about it, coupled with the fact that Wan Wan had died. He consoled her with tears in his eyes and said, "It's a good thing that we've caught Wan Wan's killer. We've already ordered for all eight of their relatives to be transported to Hainan to avenge Wan Wan, to comfort him from her time in the heaven …"
Tian Wei kneeled on the ground as she sobbed, "The elder brother of the nine, Wan Wan's death will definitely not be that simple … I don't believe that she was murdered by someone else, it must be Qin Gui, it must be Qin Gui and Wang Junhua … "
Zhao Deji frowned, "Tianwei, you better not lose your composure. The culprit has already confessed, how could it be Qin Gui? "
"It's because Wan Wan found out about Wang Junhua's secret, and discovered that she went to the Jinying to have an affair with him. Wan Wan originally wanted to get the evidence and report this to the Shangguan Family, but she didn't expect that such a vicious and cheap woman would make the first move …"
Zhao Deji looked at her in disbelief: "Now that the troops are in chaos, how can Wang Junhua, a woman, get to the front lines? Why would she work so hard for the Fourth Prince instead of being the prime minister's wife? "Tianwei, your hatred towards the Wang's disease is really too deep …"
"The elder brother of the nine, you can investigate …"
"Alright, I'll investigate immediately."
Zhao Deji immediately summoned Zhang Quwei and the other eunuchs, coincidentally Wang Jixian also entered the palace to treat the injuries on the Xiao Liu. Zhang Quwei naturally had proof that Wang Junhua was at home, and Wang Jixian said with a smile: "Wang's disease even went to this subject's house for dinner a few days ago …"
Zhao Deji frowned and asked: "Tianwei, are you convinced?"
Tianwei's heart gradually cooled down. She wiped away her tears and didn't say anything more. After bowing once more, she took her leave.
Wan Wan's Spirit Hall was located in the Princess Palace. In the past three days, many important guests and officials came to pay their respects. Tianwei stayed awake in the mourning hall, kneeling down with her legs numb and no longer crying. No matter how others tried to persuade her, she would not leave.
Late at night, a person quietly came in. He saluted and offered incense. Tianwei looked at the approaching person with a numb face, not recognizing who he was. After the greeting was done, that person walked in front of her and called out in a low voice, "Princess, you have to take care of yourself."
Only now did Tian Wei realize that it was Ma Su.
She had not seen Ma Su for a long time. Now that she saw him, she felt that he was the only person in the world who could be trusted, and she could not hold back her tears any longer. She only muttered to herself, "Wan Wan has died an unjust death. One day, this Servant will definitely end up like her … "
Ma Su's heart trembled, he too felt that Wan Wan's death was suspicious. How could a dignified Da Song be killed by a thief? This was truly a strange event that had never been heard of before in all of history.
However, he couldn't say a single word to her at this point. He could only signal with his eyes, "Princess, you must take care."
Tian Wei nodded slightly as she watched him leave. Seeing his only sister like this, Zhao Deji felt a little bit of kindness and ordered for the Princess Palace to be given another 100 guards to protect her safety.
When Hua Rong and her wife arrived at Lin An, it was already the end of the first month of the next year.
Along the way, the two of them arranged for a few commoners to surrender to Xiang Han. After delaying for a few days, they were actually seven to eight days behind Wang Junhua and the others before arriving. Wan Wan's death was like a blow to their heads, both of them were shocked senseless, they could no longer care about etiquette, and immediately rushed to the Princess Mansion to offer their condolences.
Today, Tian Wei was still guarding the front of the mourning hall. When she saw the two of them rushing in, she fell on her knees and wailed. Although she was sad and numb, and felt surprised, but seeing that the people kneeling were Yue Pengju and his wife, how could she endure it? After calling out 'Madame Yue', Hua Rong turned around and the two of them hugged each other and cried bitterly …
Although Yue Pengju was already used to life and death, he still remembered Wan Wan's smiling face and voice. He and his wife had a special relationship, treating like a little sister; The man did not shed tears easily, but because she was not sad, at that moment, Yue Pengju could not hold back her tears, it was even more painful than when she was forced to come back.
The three of them cried for a while. Yue Pengju then calmed himself down and said, "Princess, you have to take care of yourself …"
Hua Rong heard his husband's voice amidst his grief and couldn't help to let go of Tian Wei. He just saw her haggard look, completely unrecognizable. "Auntie is no longer here, Wan Wan is no longer here, and in this world, only Servant is left …"
Seeing that there were more people coming to pay their respects, Hua Rong helped Tian Wei up, "Princess, let's go take a rest first."
Upon seeing Yue Pengju and his wife, she immediately grabbed her wrist, "Madame Yue, Servant has a lot of things to say to you …"
In the side hall of the mourning hall, three people sat facing each other and wept.
Hua Rong asked in a low voice: "Is there anything strange about Wan Wan's death?"
