After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 221 Assassination



Chapter 221 Assassination

Her gaze shifted to another dancer in a plain white gauze dress, and her expression became even more disgusted.

"What is this dance? How dare you say you are quite accomplished in dancing? If I were to go up there, these people wouldn't even be worthy of dancing with me!"

Zhong Lin seemed eager to try it out as he spoke.

Seeing that Camellia's attention was not on her, she seized an opportunity and rushed towards the nearest dancer in a plain white gauze dress, and actually possessed her directly.

Before Camellia could react, in just a few blinks of an eye, Zhong Lin had become the hottest dancer in the audience!

She has a light figure and graceful dance steps. As she dances, she is as beautiful as a fairy, making people unable to help but indulge in her.

Yang Huiwen is the top performer in Baihualou. She is one of the best in both appearance and dancing skills. But how come she was overshadowed by a little dancer today?

She didn't believe it at first, but when she turned around and saw the dancer dancing desperately as if she was possessed by a ghost, she understood clearly that she must be possessed by someone.

She understood this, so she took the initiative to give the home court to Zhong Lin and quietly withdrew.

Seeing this, Zhong Lin jumped even harder.

But no one expected that just when the scene was becoming more and more heated, an accident happened.

Zhong Lin, who was dancing happily on the stage, suddenly ran downstairs for some reason, picked up a dagger from the table and rushed towards a man who was dressed like a person from the Western Regions.

The people from the Western Regions were not pushovers either. They dodged Zhong Lin's dagger with agility, and then the two men fought each other.

The scene immediately became chaotic. A guard immediately told Li Siqi and Xu Yingying, and the two rushed out immediately after hearing the news.

The moment Li Siqi pushed open the door, he saw that Zhong Lin had pinned the man from the Western Regions down on him, with the dagger in his hand stabbing towards his chest.

"stop!"

In a panic, Li Siqi grabbed the jade pendant on his body and smashed it on the dancer's wrist. Zhong Lin felt pain and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground instantly.

The man from the Western Regions took the opportunity to roll over and stand up.

Xu Yingying was afraid that Zhong Lin would cause trouble again, so she quickly and quietly summoned Zhong Lin's soul back.

"Let me go and let me kill these beasts!"

Zhong Lin, who was dragged back, was still shouting angrily.

Xu Yingying frowned, "What's wrong, Zhong Lin? Do you know who these people are? If you act recklessly like this, it might lead to a war between the two countries!"

"Of course I know!"

Zhong Lin stared at the group of Western Region people and said with gritted teeth, "These are the upper class of the Western Region! I was played around by these beasts when I was alive. Today I will make them die!"

Xu Yingying was stunned. She knew that these people were from the Western Regions, but she didn't expect that they would be the upper class of the Western Regions.

Logically speaking, these people shouldn't be here at the same time. Could it be that they came here anonymously this time for some major conspiracy?

As he was speaking, Li Siqi had already taken Cui Jiangyuan to appease these angry people from the Western Regions.

"Brother, calm down. This dancer has just gone crazy. You are a magnanimous person. Don't bother with her." Cui Jiangyuan acted as a peacemaker with a smile on his face.

But these Western Region people didn't give him face at all, "You're crazy? Do you think we Western Region people are easy to bully and don't know anything? I tell you, if you don't kill this woman today, you are looking down on us Western Region people!"

"Yes, we must report this to the police. This woman just wanted to kill us. One life for one life. If you don't give us an explanation today, I will report this to your emperor tomorrow. I want to see if there is no law in this world."

The two men from the Western Regions were so aggressive that even Cui Jiangyuan, who was as good-tempered as he was, was almost speechless because of them.

At this time, Xu Yingying came to Li Siqi and repeated what Zhong Lin had just said.

Li Siqi's face darkened and his black pupils shrank slightly.

"Master Cui!"

He called out to Cui Jiangyuan, who was still trying to mediate, "Since they want to report to the police, you should go with them. Remember, we are a country of etiquette and must not do anything that would be beneath our dignity!"

Upon hearing this, Cui Jiangyuan said no more and went to the yamen with Li Siqi and the group of people from the Western Regions.

When the people in the yamen saw that Li Siqi had brought people here in person, and that they were people from the Western Regions, they naturally spoke in favor of the dancer.

The dancer possessed by Zhong Lin fainted the moment Zhong Lin's soul left, and she still appears to be unconscious.

The man who was about to kill someone was unconscious at the moment.

Those who were beaten and killed are still standing in the court.

Even if these people from the Western Regions wanted to continue to pester them, they no longer had any reason to do so.

In the end, at the signal of Li Siqi's eyes, these people from the Western Regions only received twenty taels of silver, which was not even enough to pay for their tea and drinks in Baihua Tower!

"You...you are going too far!"

The two people from the Western Regions glared at Li Siqi and Xu Yingying fiercely and spoke with gritted teeth.

Xu Yingying smiled slightly, "Thank you."

This is what they mean by "being so angry that he dies".

When the man from the Western Regions saw that he couldn't win the argument with Xu Yingying, he suddenly raised his arm. Xu Yingying smelled a strange fragrance rushing to her nose. Before she could hold her breath, the two men from the Western Regions had already left.

After the two people from the Western Regions left, Xu Yingying felt uncomfortable all over.

At the same time, Li Siqi's behavior became abnormal. His originally fair face suddenly turned red, and his whole body became extremely hot.

What else did Xu Yingying not understand after reading this? Nine out of ten times, it was that group of people who gave them that kind of "dirty medicine".

Xu Yingying was still somewhat rational, but Li Siqi's eyes became blurry after a while, as if he was completely out of his mind.

Xu Yingying suppressed the feeling of heat in her body, then gritted her teeth and brought Li Siqi back to the mansion.

But she didn't expect that this scene among the servants would further prove that their relationship was "improper".

After Xu Yingying helped Li Siqi, whose face was ruddy and whose body was as hot as a furnace, into the room.

When the servants saw the door of the room was closed, they immediately gathered together excitedly and started gossiping.

"Why did our prince bring Master Xu back again? This time, the two of them are a little disheveled."

"And... I think our family's expression seems a little abnormal... like..."

The servant stopped talking halfway through his words, and everyone understood the rest of his meaning.

"Could it be that our master is actually... a... homosexual?" a servant said boldly.

But this time no one stood up to oppose what he said. Instead, everyone nodded in agreement with his idea.

"Yes, I think so too."

“I think so.”

"Me too. I feel like our prince and Lord Xu have a bit too good of a relationship. They're two grown men, inseparable all day long. Even though they're handling a case, it's not a good thing."
