Night Light glanced at Princess Yan Ling and told the chief steward, “Go fetch
Yuanhe!”
The chief steward wanted to say something but hesitated.
Night Light said angrily, “What are you waiting for?!”
Only then did the chief steward go in and whisper something in his ear. Night Light asked, “What? He’s dead?”
The chief steward nodded. “He was sitting at his desk and was ambushed from behind.”
Night Light turned around and stared at Princess Yan Ling.
Princess Yan Ling frowned. “Why are you staring at me?
Night Light rose to his feet and quickly headed for Yuanne’s courtyard.
Yuanhe was the second prince’s most capable guard and most trusted strategist. How could the second prince not be worried when he was a.s.sa.s.sinated?
“Stop right there!” Princess Yan Ling bellowed, but Night Light wouldn’t stop,
so she had to follow him.
Night Light rushed into the room to find Yuanhe lying dead on the table.
Staring at the dead body on the desk, Princess Yan Ling’s eyes glinted coldly.
Was this the person who had carried her into the manor?
If the second prince was telling the truth, then Yuanhe was the lead. But now, Yuanhe had been killed. Who killed him?
The most profitable person should be the most suspect. Could it have been Night Light?
Just then, Night Light found some words carved on the table.
To be more precise, there was only one and a half words, which Yuanhe had carved with his nails before he died.
The first word was Yan’.
The second word was “Lit‘.
Night Light jolted.
That was it!
The fact that Princess Yan Ling had come to the private residence meant that she remembered what happened the other day! Naturally, she remembered that Yuanhe had carried her in, and now, she had taken her revenge on the man, making it difficult for Night Light to explain himself.
Princess Yan Ling was trying to set him up.
Night Light thought that Princess Yan Ling had killed Yuanhe, and Princess Yanling thought that it was Night Light’s doing. As a result, the misunderstanding grew bigger.
Feng Wu was the one who had set the trap.
Meanwhile, Feng Wu was watching things happen according to her plan, and she was only a facilitator and a bystander.
“You killed him!”
“You killed him!”
They spoke in unison.
“Heh!”
They snorted in unison again.
Princess Yan Ling said coldly, “He’s dead. What more do you have to say now?
Do you have anything to say about what happened the other day?”
Night Light frowned. “Didn’t you kill Yuanhe?”
Princess Yanling said, “Are you trying to frame me?!”
Night Light said, “You killed him! If you don’t believe me, we’ll take it to my father and ask for his opinion!” The Dongsang King?
Princess Yan Ling didn’t want to!
Because it was her privacy. If what happened to her got out… As a woman she would be in a lot of trouble.
When that happened, the Dongsang Emperor would make Night Light marry her for the sake of their dignity.
At that thought, the look in Princess Yan Ling’s eyes turned grimmer, and she was filled with rage!
Night Owl didn’t even dare to make a sound in front of her. Who the h.e.l.l did this second prince think he was?
“If you can’t explain yourself, go to h.e.l.l!” Princess Yan Ling struck out without
hesitation.
Night Light jumped..
