There were not many people on this path. Halfway through, Huan‘er pointed at a fork and turned inside.
“Bao Yi didn’t behave. He was chased out of the village long ago. He found a way to earn some money and built a house nearby…” Huan’er added.
Xie Qiao was fed up.
Since Huan’er knew that Bao Yi was a bad person, she actually dared to bring the Commandery Princess here!
There were few people outside, and the weeds in some places were taller than people. If something was really done inside, the pedestrians on the road would not be able to see it!
They took a few steps toward the fork in the road and stopped.
“I’s here. We happened to meet Bao Yi when he came over, so we met before we reached the small house. We got off the carriage, and I chatted with him for a while. Then he became disobedient and began to commit the crime.”
As she spoke, Huan’er pointed at a rock at the bottom. “That should be the rock that young lady and I used to smash him…”
She thought that the person had been smashed to death, and that was why the young lady was so afraid.
However, later, Bao Yi found her again and asked her to give him money to see a doctor.
At that time, the young lady was already in a daze. She had secretly told the young lady that Bao Yi was still alive, but the young lady still had not recovered.
Xie Qiao looked around.
Finally, she saw a living soul under a tree.
The living soul curled up and it was s.h.i.+vering. Xie Qiao walked over and found that besides Zhao Jialing’s living soul, there was also an earring. It was very beautiful and was slightly blocked by the fallen leaves.
She raised her hand and picked it up.
“This is my young lady’s!” Huan’er hurriedly said, “Young Lady stole a hairpin back then, but because she was too nervous, she did not notice that an earring was missing.”
The living soul stared at the earring and was very nervous when she saw Xie Qiao picking it up.
Xie Qiao thought for a moment and said to the living soul, “Are you afraid that Bao Yi’s body would be found? When the authorities investigate, they will find the earring and then find you?”
Zhao Jialing was stunned.
She was also a little confused. After all, her soul was not complete, so she had some obsession, but not much intelligence.
In addition to being frightened, when she heard these words, she was very nervous and could not even speak.
Xie Qiao guessed that the Commandery Princess found that the earring was gone halfway and was so scared that her soul left her body. She did not dare to go back to pick it up, but she could not help but think that her soul was left halfway and she ran to the “crime scene”, However, she did not expect that
Bao Yi did not die, and her soul could not go back.
As she was obsessed with the earring, her living soul could not go back.
Xie Qiao also knew that it was useless to say anything to her now.
She lit a soul-nouris.h.i.+ng incense and put it away.
The living soul had been wandering outside for so long, and it was very weak. It looked like it could disappear at any time.
Xie Qiao guessed that when Zhao Jialing’s living soul returned to her body, this person would also become weaker. It was impossible for her to be as strong as before.
She deserved it.
At such a young age, after listening to the manipulative words of others, she actually wanted to get a master to change someone’s fate!
Fortunately, she did not succeed. Otherwise, if she really encountered a witch, Ms. Ying would be the unlucky one if that really happened.
“Is it done?” Zhao Xuanjing asked.
Today’s task was a bit far, but it was not difficult.
Xie Qiao was well-versed in both worlds. Otherwise, who could find such a place?
“That Bao Yi…” Xie Qiao looked at Zhao Xuanjing. “How should we deal with him?”
He dared to commit a murder in broad daylight, which was a terrible thing. If he was left uncaptured, he would harm others. However, it was not good to spread the news of the crime of a n.o.ble young lady. Otherwise, Prince Yong Lin’s Residence would hate her and the Crown Prince..
