In the middle of the night…
A sneaky figure ran into the old temple . Someonce was already waiting at the dome . The other party saw someone coming in and immediately went forward .
Before the other party could say anything, the person that came exploded first . “I asked you all to assassinate Prince Six, I didn’t ask you to poison him . Are you trying to kill me?”
Song Yunjiao only heard that there was poison on the assassins’ swords after she left .
The assassin that came to meet her frowned . “We followed your orders . We didn’t put any poison on anything . ”
“If you didn’t put the poison, why was that lady poisoned?” Song Yunjiao wore a shawl over her face and she lowered her voice . Her voice sounded a little deep .
The assassin said, “Are you trying to repudiate your debt?”
Song Yunjiao sneered . “Repudiate my debt? Why don’t you go and find out for yourself if I am talking nonsense or speaking the truth!”
She suddenly rejoiced a little that she didn’t go and block that attack .
If she did, the one that was dying now would be her .
The assassin saw how certain Song Yunjiao was and started to doubt himself .
The assassination today was a loss to them . A lot of his men didn’t make it back .
The assassin sent a letter and asked someone to inquire about it . This issue just happened so news about it was everywhere .
The assassin got his reply very quickly .

“No matter what, you still need to pay the remaining sum to us . After all, so many of my brothers died . ”
Song Yunjiao: “You still have the face to ask me for money?”
The assassin said coldly, “The information that you gave us was wrong too . You didn’t tell us that there would be so many covert guards around . ”
Song Yunjiao choked .
Her understanding of Prince Six was still too little .
Prince Six just showed his crippled body to the public . He didn’t portray himself as a stupid person . Thus, it was reasonable for him to have covert guards .
The assassin said again, “Miss, we made a mistake in this order so you only need to pay half of the remaining sum to us . ”
Song Yunjiao felt stifled in her heart . “You almost killed me and you still have the face to ask me for money!”
The assassin looked at her coldly .
Song Yunjiao looked at the sword in his hand and suddenly felt anxious .
These people were outlaws .
Song Yunjiao didn’t want to pay the money, but from the stance of the assassin, they might kill her if she didn’t pay them . She had no choice .
But…
Who wanted to harm her?
Or rather, harm Prince Six?
If no one blocked that sword for him, the one that was hurt now would be him .
Qin Wu…
Qin Wu?
She grabbed her and prevented her from going over .
It must be her!!
“The second lady is here . ”
Song Yunjiao heard the voice and her heart started pounding furiously . She looked around her and tried to find a place to hide .
However, there was no one on the streets now . Before she could find a hiding spot, the people from the Song Mansion appeared in front of her .
They grabbed her and took her without saying anything .
Song Yunjiao couldn’t resist at all . She was dragged back to the Song Mansion .
Pa!
Mother Song slapped her on the face and pulled a long face as she scolded, “How dare you still run away, you bitch . Why don’t you look at what you are now?”
Song Yunjiao’s face stung from the pain . An iron taste spread in her mouth .
She glared fiercely at Mother Song .
“How dare you still stare at me . Lock her up in the woodshed . If she runs away again, you will all be punished . ” Mother Song pointed at the servants . “Don’t give her any food . Let me see if she will still have the energy to run away . ”
The servants didn’t dare to disobey Mother Song so they hurriedly dragged Song Yunjiao to the woodshed .
“I’m so angry . ” Mother Song said with a sarcastic face . “Everyone is giving me trouble . Have you found the first young lady?”
“Not… yet . ”
“It is already late, but she is still outside . ” There was no concern on Mother Song’s face . “Go and look for her again . If not, the master will say that I am not showing her enough love . ”
Mother Song only had one daughter . That was the youngest daughter of the Song family .
The oldest daughter was given birth to by Father Song’s first wife . However, she passed away soon after giving birth .
Hence, Mother Song only symbolically asked people to look for Song Yunyan . She was not worried at all .
“Prince Six, this way please…”
Song Yunjiao had not eaten for an entire day . Her stomach was hurting from hunger when she suddenly heard the voice outside .
Prince Six?
Prince Six is here?
Song Yunjiao tidied her appearance instinctively .
The door of the woodshed opened and Prince Six was pushed in by someone .
“Your Highness…” Song Yunjiao’s tears fell immediately . She ran toward Prince Six but someone stopped her . “Your Highness, I…”
“Song Yunjiao, the antidote . ” Prince Six interrupted her . His tone was cold and distant, just like the first time they met .
Song Yunjiao parted her dry lips . “Your Highness… what antidote?”
“You know what I mean . ”
Song Yunjiao shook her head . “I don’t . ”
Prince Six waved his hand at the bodyguard and brought someone inside . He threw the person in front of Song Yunjiao .
This was the assassin she hired…
Song Yunjiao’s body started shaking .
She must not admit it .
She must not admit it…
“Your Highness, who is this?” Song Yunjiao just managed to control her emotions .
There was only one last breath left in the assassin . He was forced to look up by the bodyguard .
His eyes landed on Song Yunjiao’s body and he identified her weakly . “It… it is her . ”
Song Yunjiao looked at the assassin in disbelief . She was wearing a shawl and changed her voice . How could he still recognize her?
“She… she was wearing these clothes just now . ”
Song Yunjiao felt as though she was struck by lightning .
She was caught by the people from the Song Mansion so she didn’t have the time to change her attire .
“Song Yunjiao, antidote . ” Prince Six’s patience was almost gone .
“I… it wasn’t me . I don’t know any antidote . It wasn’t me…”
Song Yunjiao started spouting nonsense .
“Assassinating a prince means a death penalty . ” The bodyguard threatened her at the side . “Miss Song should hurry up and give us the antidote . His Highness will spare you on behalf of your relationship with him in the past . ”
Death penalty…
She couldn’t die .
She didn’t want to kill him, either .
She just…
“It was Qin Wu…” Song Yunjiao suddenly raised her head . Her eyes were filled with hatred . “It was Qin Wu, she did it, it must be her… that day…”
Song Yunjiao admitted that she hired the assassins, but her motive was not to kill him .
It was Ming Shu who stopped her .
She must have done something .
Prince Six frowned deeply . Song Yunjiao didn’t apply the poison .
Who else could it be?
The assassins that came to kill him were all dead . This one that he caught was useless . Hence, there was nowhere they could start to investigate who placed the poison .
Is it really that woman?
“Go to Yi’an Mansion,” Prince Six said .
“Your Highness… Your Highness, I know my mistake…” Song Yunjiao looked really pitiful . “Your Highness, I just didn’t want to lose you . I don’t want to hurt you . ”
Prince Six face was really cold . “Persecute her according to the crime she committed . ”
“Yes…”
“Your Highness…” Song Yunjiao widened her eyes . She screamed even louder, “No, Your Highness…!”
Prince Six was shortly pushed out by someone . Song Yunjiao was left inside .
She watched as Prince Six’s wheelchair disappeared in the sunlight .
Song Yunjiao fell onto the floor without any energy left in her . Her face looked hideous as hatred and hopelessness appeared on it .
Assassinating a prince…
Death penalty .
