Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 273

Chapter 273 Homicide Entangled
“I, I” When Shi Qin’er heard this and looked at Su Wanwan, her eyes turned red and she said, “Why are you worthy of him treating you like this?”

After the Soul Settling Orb shattered the illusion, the voice became hoarse, as if someone was pickpocketing at the door with long fingernails at night. It was extremely terrifying!

Hearing this, Su Wanwan thought of a wishful thinking. She had no more trust in Shi Qin’er. She loosened her grip in disgust and said, “It’s fine if you don’t say it. Anyway, I’m telling you, the Third Prince won’t be yours. You can’t take advantage of him!”

“Stop!” Shi Qin’er stopped Su Wanwan and rushed over to push Su Wanwan off the surface of the lake again!

Young masters and young misses who heard Shi Qin’er’s cry ran over with servants. Seeing the two of them like this, they were stunned why Su Wanwan and Shi Qin’er were pulling on each other. Suddenly, they saw Shi Qin’er’s appearance and were all shocked!

A young master immediately rushed over and pulled Shi Qin’er out and shouted, “You old granny! What are you doing stealing your young miss’ clothes for? You actually want to harm Eldest Miss Zhao now! Are you tired of living?”

Shi Qin’er’s body trembled as she looked at the young master uncontrollably, “You call me an old granny?”

“Aren’t you?” As the young master spoke, he didn’t want to look at Shi Qin’er anymore. He felt a chill run down his spine as he forcefully kicked Shi Qin’er away!

What a coincidence, the strength was just right, actually kicking Shi Qin’er to the lake!

Shi Qin’er wanted to stand up, but she slipped and fell into the lake!

Everyone cheered and praised the young master for his good work.

Su Wanwan thanked him and was about to leave. Suddenly, the servants of the Prime Minister’s Mansion chased after him. “Eldest Miss Zhao, I heard our young miss calling out just now. Did you see her?”

Isn’t Shi Qin’er the one jumping in the ice lake? Su Wanwan pointed at the people in the lake and said, “That’s your young miss.”

“That’s not true!” The servant scratched his head and was puzzled, “Our young miss is much better looking and her voice is also pleasant to hear. How could it be that old witch!”

That was Shi Qin’er! Su Wanwan was helpless and didn’t know how to explain. She said, “Then I don’t know. Send someone to look for her. We heard her, but when we opened our eyes, we didn’t see her.”

“Then … then I’ll disturb Miss Zhao.” As the servant spoke, he almost kowtowed to Su Wanwan and thanked her.

Su Wanwan waved her hand, then went to a crowded place, found the servants of the Zhao Clan waiting for her, and left.

For several days in a row, it was snowing heavily and Qi Chengfeng did not return to the Third Prince’s Mansion. He stayed in the Zhao Mansion and played chess with Su Wanwan in his spare time. His life was very comfortable.

While playing chess, Su Wanwan asked about Shi Qin’er. Qi Chengfeng’s impression of Shi Qin’er was very vague. He only said, “When I entered the Prime Minister’s Mansion, I saw her. She was too lonely. I didn’t have any deep contact with her.”

Su Wanwan naturally felt that Qi Chengfeng’s words were true. She was still very puzzled about how Shi Qin’er had an illusion, but the robots in the space were still resting, unable to find out why.

“It’s your turn.” Qi Chengfeng reminded.

Just as Su Wanwan was about to drop a son, a pigeon suddenly flew over and landed on Qi Chengfeng’s shoulder.

Qi Chengfeng took off the letter under the dove’s feet. Su Wanwan moved closer and saw the contents of the note. It turned out that there was another problem with the salt supply in Qi Bei, and Qi Bei was Qi Chengfeng’s fief. Knowing the severity of the matter, Su Wanwan let Qi Chengfeng leave.

After Qi Chengfeng left, Su Wanwan felt that it was boring. She sat idle for an hour and looked at the chess pieces that Qi Chengfeng had played.

“Dong dong dong!” The butler knocked on the door and walked over. Before the butler could say anything, Su Wanwan said, “The rematch will be postponed until the Third Prince returns to the capital.”

“Alas!” The butler sighed and frowned, “Miss, even if you want to do something about the competition, you can’t do it! Many young masters outside have sent messages to their servants saying that they will withdraw from the competition. Anyway, there won’t be anyone on the streets these days! The shops on the streets are also closed!”

“Why?” Su Wanwan was puzzled, “Did something dangerous happen in the capital?”

“Isn’t that so?” The butler said, his face still filled with shock. “There have been several faceless corpses in the capital these past two days! I wonder who did it. For two days, the corpses of a man and a woman suddenly appeared on the street in the morning!”

“Faceless Corpse Case?” Su Wanwan frowned and heard the butler say, “This shameless corpse case was discovered before we arrived in the capital!”

Su Wanwan’s face remained calm. Just as she was thinking, Mrs. Zhao came over to talk to Su Wanwan. She had been warned that Su Wanwan was not allowed to leave the manor. Su Wanwan felt helpless after listening for a long time. “Mother, it’s so cold outside. I don’t want to leave the house! Don’t say anything else, my ears are starting to cocoon.”

“You’re really …” Although Madam Zhao was angry, he was happy that Su Wanwan was unable to say anything else. He was just about to ask his servants to add a pot of charcoal fire when he saw a group of constable-like people rushing towards him. “Mrs. Zhao, Eldest Miss Zhao must leave the manor today!”

These people came aggressively and were extremely hostile. Looking at the sign on their waist, Su Wanwan knew that it was from the Martial Temple and was stunned for a moment.

Madam Zhao panicked and immediately stood in front of Su Wanwan. He said coldly, “What do you mean by that? My daughter has done nothing wrong. Please keep your mouths clean!”

“Mother, don’t panic.” Su Wanwan pulled Zhao shi to her side. “I haven’t been anywhere these past few days. If they want to capture me, they have to bring along evidence.”

Seeing that Su Wanwan was so calm, the few of them glanced at each other. The leading constable said, “Such calm is undoubtedly the murderer of Third Miss Shi!”

Third Miss Shi? Su Wanwan frowned. “I left the Prime Minister’s Mansion three days ago. How could I kill Third Miss Shi if I hadn’t gone out these past few days? This matter involves human lives. Don’t speak nonsense.”

“We’re not spouting nonsense!” The leading constable took out a rope and walked towards Su Wanwan. “Eldest Miss Zhao, it was three days ago. Third Miss Shi met you in the mansion that day. Someone heard that you had an argument with her by the lake. Then, when everyone went over, she disappeared, and you … were unharmed!” Her corpse was found at the bottom of the ice lake this morning. There is no face on her face. The person most suspected is you! You might even be the murderer of some other shameless corpse! ”

Although her analysis was reasonable, Su Wanwan was very concerned about Shi Qin’er’s case. She also knew that Shi Qin’er was rescued not long after she fell into the icy lake that day and was dragged down to be scolded for stealing clothes! How could Shi Qin’er die if her life was so hard? How could this be related to the shameless case?

As Su Wanwan thought about it, she felt that this was a trap. The people behind the scenes were waiting for her to jump in!

Su Wanwan thought for a moment, but before she could say anything, the few of them grabbed onto Su Wanwan’s wrist and quickly tied the rope, “Take Miss Zhao away!”
