Shen Ning opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "For such a simple reason, she insists on taking my life?"
"Isn't this reason enough? She is a princess. She can take someone's life without any reason. What's more, having you in this world for one day will only make her even more ridiculed by everyone." Mo Chuan said.
Shen Ning shook her head. Coming from modern times, she still couldn't believe that someone would kill someone for such a ridiculous reason.
Mo Chuan has grown up in the inner courtyard of the palace since he was a child, and he has long been accustomed to intrigues and insidious schemes. How can a person with the character of the Seventeenth Princess put other people's lives in his eyes? In her eyes, they were all like ants.
Killing a girl of unknown origin is like crushing an eyesore, nothing serious at all.
She believed that after getting rid of that girl, even if Chu Shaoyang found out about it or even her father knew about it, there would be no trouble at all. No one would question her, a golden princess, for the sake of a commoner. .
"As long as you live, people will inevitably compare you with her, and they will laugh at her and say that she, a golden princess, is not as good as a nameless commoner woman. She will become the laughing stock of everyone. Only if you die She will stop You You's mouth, so she has to kill you, even if it's not for Chu Shaoyang, it's for herself," Mo Chuan said quietly.
Shen Ning took a deep breath and raised her eyes to look at Mo Chuan.
"So the peasant couple died because of me, right? How did those killers find that small mountain village? I don't believe they can track you."
Mo Chuan nodded slightly and said, "That's right, they didn't follow him. They found him there because someone tipped him off."
"Tell the news? Who is it?" Shen Ning took a breath.
Mo Chuan raised his hand, and a human skull rolled in front of her.
Shen Ning lowered his head and saw that the blood on the head was still wet and the color had not changed. It had obviously been cut off not long ago.
But she didn't recognize the facial features of the head, which looked wretched and sinister.
She was just about to ask who this person was when an idea flashed in her mind and a name blurted out.
"Doctor Ma?" she said in a low voice.
She had never seen Doctor Ma who treated her, but she heard the peasant woman mention his name. If anyone besides the peasant couple had seen her and Xiao Hei, it was Doctor Ma.
Mo Chuan looked at her approvingly and nodded.
She is still as smart as before, and she can tell everything at once.
"Yes, it was Dr. Ma who tipped off the news. I was negligent when it came to this matter. I didn't expect that Dr. Ma was not only greedy for money, but also a careful person. He found out when he was treating you. There was a flaw, so he went to the capital to inquire around, and found out as soon as he inquired. After he guessed your identity, he went to the Seventeenth Princess's Mansion to ask for credit, and then he attracted those black-clad killers. Unfortunately, I found out. It was too late, and finally failed to save the lives of the peasant couple... "
Mo Chuan's voice gradually became lower. He wore a mask on his face and could not see his emotions, but deep regret could be heard in his voice.
"When I found Doctor Ma, he was eating and drinking in a restaurant with the seventeenth princess's silver reward. I just cut his head with a knife."
