Liu Qiaoer smiled gently and handed the cup in which she had soaked the paper strips to Pei Yi.
"Thank you for your hard work. I will definitely repay you. Have a glass of water first to quench your thirst."
Pei Yi took it and poured it into his mouth without even looking at it.
"Puh, puh, puh... What is this..."
Pei Yi almost dropped the cup after eating a mouthful of waste paper. He changed to a clean cup, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp.
"This time, I will kill the prince here first..."
As soon as Liu Qiaoer finished speaking, Pei Yi almost burst out laughing.
“Cough, cough, cough…” He was choking to death.
"You, what did you say? Say it again..."
Liu Qiaoer said mysteriously and quietly in front of Pei Yi: "The collapse of the silver mine was actually caused by me, in order to kill the prince..."
Pei Yi swallowed nervously, he didn't seem to feel any big reaction anymore.
After all, for someone who claims to want to kill the emperor, what's the harm in killing a prince
"If you want to die, you don't have to take me with you, auntie. I beg you, just treat me like a fart and let me go."
Liu Qiaoer blinked innocently: "I am alone, without even a helper. If you don't help me, who will? Pei Yi, I have divorced Yun Zheng now. If you help me this time, I will marry you, okay?"
Pei Yi rolled his eyes speechlessly, but he was thinking madly in his heart that even if he was single for the rest of his life, he would not marry Liu Qiaoer.
He was afraid that he would get married but not have the chance to have his wedding night.
"Yun Zheng is stronger than me, why don't you ask him for help? Didn't you help him get revenge last time?"
Liu Qiaoer held the tea and said calmly: "That was last time... I just didn't want him to misunderstand me. This time, this time..."
Pei Yi curled his lips: "This time, you are soft-hearted, because the person to be assassinated is the prince, you don't want him to wade into muddy waters?"
Liu Qiaoer suddenly smiled mysteriously. Just when Pei Yi thought he had guessed correctly, she suddenly said, "Because, this time, I really want to frame him as the murderer who killed the prince..."
"Puff" Pei Yi spat out a mouthful of blood, "You... are so cruel..."
Liu Qiaoer looked at Pei Yi with a fierce look in her eyes: "I will give you two choices. One is to help me and frame Yun Zheng for the assassination of the prince. The other is, if you don't help me, I will frame you for the assassination..."
Pei Yi was stunned. He never thought that such vicious words would come from the mouth of such a petite woman.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll help you, but only this time..."
Liu Qiaoer smiled happily when she saw that he agreed.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yi asked again: "Then, I want to ask you, you and Yun Zheng are husband and wife, why do you hate him so much?"
Liu Qiaoer blinked blankly. Hate
She doesn't hate him, he looks so much like Lu Yunzheng...
She couldn't stop liking him.
However, there was an extreme voice in her heart saying: Hate him. The person she hated the most was him, Yun Zheng.
It was Yun Zheng who informed the prince that the Liu family had connections with the people from Fu Yumen. Without even any evidence, he threw the entire Liu family into jail.
More than 180 people were exiled.
It seemed that he had rescued the sisters, because he still wanted to keep Liu Qiaoer and find the headquarters gate of Fu Yumen.
Also, although Yun Zheng was engaged to Liu Qiaoer, the person he secretly liked was his younger sister Liu Duoer, and Liu Duoer's fake identity was also arranged by Yun Zheng.
Liu Qiaoer had no feelings for him at all.
But in dreams at night, I would arouse her hatred, and in the dreams, I would tell her over and over again that I would avenge her.
Yes, there are two souls living in Liu Qiaoer's body now.
One is Liu Qiaoer herself, and the other is her original body.
The original body's hatred was so strong that Liu Qiaoer could not completely control her.
On the contrary, because of Liu Qiaoer's powerful abilities, she was used by her original body.
Anyway, this game will always end, and this world will always be destroyed, so Liu Qiaoer might as well help her.
She also didn't expect that Yun Zheng would do so much for Liu Duoer.
It seems that the next step is that Yun Zheng will marry Liu Duoer.
But I don’t know if he will live to see the end of the mourning period in three years.
The prince's men were not moving slowly, but not fast either. Liu Qiaoer had been staying in this inn for more than ten days before the prince's men arrived.
Of course, he couldn't live in the inn, but in the mansion behind the governor of Sucheng.
The silver mine collapsed, and the governor of Sucheng was afraid of taking responsibility, so he served the prince very wholeheartedly.
It is not easy to kill the prince. You have to break through the checkpoints.
It was late at night and everyone was asleep. As normal, Liu Qiaoer took Pei Yi and planned to break into the Sucheng prefectural government office at night.
Sure enough, the inner three floors and the outer three floors were all guards. He wanted to climb over the wall to get in, but he didn't expect that there was a toilet below.
Enduring the stench, Liu Qiaoer asked Pei Yi to knock out two guards. The two of them changed their clothes and walked in swaggeringly.
The prince is indeed the prince. Even if the silver mine collapses, it will not stop him from drinking and having fun.
There was singing and laughter in the prefectural government's backyard, and the atmosphere was peaceful.
The prince was accompanied by officials from the Suzhou prefecture, and they invited dancers and singers to accompany him. They drank and played finger-guessing games, and had a great time.
There are too many people. The best strategy is to get close to the prince and kill him without anyone noticing.
Liu Qiaoer rolled her eyes and pulled Pei Yi into an empty room.
"Help me keep watch while I change my clothes."
After a cup of tea, Liu Qiaoer dressed up as a maid and came out of the room carrying a tray.
"Fine wine, beautiful women, will the prince feel dizzy when he sees me?"
Liu Qiaoer raised her eyebrows proudly.
Pei Yi smacked his lips and said, "Yes, but I heard that the prince is very alert. Look, there is no one close to him. And the two guards behind him are both experts. If you kill him now, you may not be able to escape unscathed."
Yes, there are too many people today, and if there is a commotion, Liu Qiaoer and Pei Yi alone may not be able to escape unscathed.
If Long Batian comes out, her identity will be exposed.
Liu Qiaoer's dark eyes turned: "I understand. I won't act rashly today."
Pei Yi's observation ability was indeed very strong. As soon as Liu Qiaoer came to the steps of the prince's seat with a tray, she was stopped by someone.
"Give it to me, and you go down."
The guard carried the tray, examined it carefully, poured himself a sip of tea, and made sure it was not poisoned before he dared to bring it to the prince.
Liu Qiaoer's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Fortunately, she didn't poison him, otherwise, things would be bad.
However, by coincidence, Liu Qiaoer actually saw an acquaintance.
It turns out that the prefect of Su City is none other than Gu Mubai.
Now in his forties, he has shown signs of gaining weight, drinking and flattering, and has completely become an official of the imperial court.
Even if they recognized each other, Liu Qiaoer knew that he would not recognize her.
The fewer people who know about her, the better.
Liu Qiaoer and Pei Yi were preparing to go back. As they were walking, they suddenly met a patrolman. Liu Qiaoer pulled Pei Yi and hurriedly hid in an empty house.
Liu Qiaoer blocked the door, leaned over the crack to watch the patrolling guards, and waited quietly for them to leave.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yi pulled her madly.
"What are you doing... don't talk."
Liu Qiaoer turned her head and looked back in the direction Pei Yi pointed, and found that there was actually another person in the room.
