Si Qi glared at Su Binglan, asking, “What do you want?”

“Nothing much. Just answer my questions honestly,” Su Binglan said casually. Even so, she exuded a fierce killing intent that sent shivers down one’s spine. Si Qi’s face reddened as he said, “l don’t know what you’re talking about!”

“You don’t, huh?” Su Chun was ecstatic because she finally got to follow her master on such an exciting mission. Su Chun liked being direct in her attacks, so she applied pressure to her sword, causing Si Qi’s neck to bleed.

Si Qi was terrified. “Princess Ruobing never assigned me to any missions! There are none!”

He wanted to say he did not know the princess at all, but he suspected the two women would not believe him. Still, he feared dying as he looked at the sword.

A coldness flashed in Su Binglan’s eyes as she asked, “She didn’t give you any missions?”

“No, she didn’t.” Si Qi became even more terrified as he broke out in a cold sweat, and his legs went weak.

“Do you remember Lin Rou?”

“N-No, I don’t even know who that is!”

Su Binglan observed Si Qi’s expression with a mocking smirk. “It seems you’re unwilling to cooperate. Do you honestly think you can pretend not to know anything just because your master is dead?”

Su Binglan placed her hand on Si Qi’s head and released a surge of spiritual energy, causing him to scream in pain as beads of sweat rolled from his forehead, “Ahh!”

Su Chun froze momentarily before asking, “Master, should I shut him up?”

“It’s okay, no one can hear him,” Su Binglan said. She had set up a barrier around the area so no one could hear Si Qi’s screams, no matter how loud he screamed.

Since he refused to tell the truth, Su Binglan stopped wasting time and used her powers to obtain Si Qi’s memories. Although, it was a risky method as the person under the spell would become delirious.

Still, Su Binglan showed no mercy to traitors. Back when she saved Si Qi as

Lan Ruobing, the latter had stated her conditions, and Si Qi agreed to work for her.

Lan Ruobing later tasked Si Qi with delivering a message. According to the princess’s memories, Lin Rou and Si Qi betrayed her.

Su Binglan withdrew her hand and said, “Since you’ve already betrayed me, you shall die.”

“No, please spare me! 1 didn’t mean to betray Princess Ruobing—” Si Qi begged for mercy, but Su Chun had already sliced his neck. He died with his eyes wide open in fear.

Su Binglan no longer needed Si Qi because she had already figured out what she needed to know from his memories. She then took her Corpse Dissolver and poured it onto Si (Zi’ s lifeless body, causing it to turn to dust.

“Let’s go.” Su Binglan brought Su Chun to a vast yet hidden courtyard with a few guards around.

“Master, what is this place?”

“It’s where Lin Rou lives.’

“She’s still alive?” Su Chun knew Lin Rou was once Princess Ruobings servant girl. Su Chun thought Lin Rou died at the same time as the princess.

“She is,” Su Binglan replied coldly, “This courtyard is the residence of the heir to the Lu Public House. Lin Rou is hiding here.”

Su Chun turned solemn, saying, “The Lu Public House belongs to the Crown Prince’s and Crown Princess’s faction.’

Su Binglan’s eyes glinted with killing intent. The Crown Princess, Lu Zuidie, used to have an excellent relationship with Lan Ruozhu. Unfortunately, Lu Zuidie entered the palace and became the Crown Princess.

She even provided the Crown Prince with a lot of information regarding Lan Ruozhu. Moreover, the Crown Prince had a lot to do with the Wei family’s downfall. Perhaps it also had something to do with Lu Zuidie. One could only imagine what role Lin Rou played in all of this.

Su Binglan exuded a dangerous aura as she led Su Chun into the courtyard. Lin Rou was sleeping when she felt a chill down her spine and suddenly opened her eyes. Before she could scream, someone put a pill in her mouth and covered it.

She had no time to react before she swallowed the pill. After struggling for a while, she asked, “Wh-who are you? What did you feed me?”

Su Binglan said, “You have no right to know who we are. The pill I gave you is a disfiguring poison.”

“How dare you treat me this way?! 1 work for Prince Lu Zuiyo!” Lin Rou shouted.

Su Binglan sneeered. “l know Prince Lu is the Crown Princess’s brother. You betrayed Princess Ruobing and became one of them.”

“Wh-who are you?” Lin Rou paled from fear, but she was also outraged. She Lan Ruobing had already died but wondered why someone was asking about her.

Smack!

Su Chun slapped Lin Rou, causing her face to swell instantly. “Cut the crap and answer our questions. Don’t speak unless spoken to.”

Su Chun detested traitors.

‘Princess Ruobing was kind-hearted and caring toward these people, yet they dared to betray her.’

Lin Rou covered her face and glared at the two women before her. When she saw Su Binglan, she thought the young lady was highly similar to Lan Ruobing.

“When did you decide to betray me? If you lie, I’ll cut your face and let the drug change your appearance. You won’t die, but you’ll have to show Lu Zuiyou your disfigured face. The pill you swallowed will also make you bleed from your seven orifices. Imagine having to live on like that.”

Su Binglan removed something from her pocket as she spoke. A fragrance spread through the room that caused Li Rou to feel pain. “Gah…”

Lin Rou began to feel so much pain that she could no longer take it. She exclaimed, “Fine, I’ll talk! Princess Zuidie often visited Prince Ruozhu and became close to him. She also sent people to rope us in.

“l didn’t want to betray Princess Binglan, but Princess Zuidie said she’d tell her brother to bring me into his palace to live beside him if I did. I had no choice!”

Su Chun was so angry that she slapped Lin Rou again, knocking out two of her teeth. The latter yelped as the two women frightened her.

Su Binglan sneered. “That’s why Princess Binglan gave you a brocade pouch and told you to look for Si Qi before she died. She wanted you to send a message to General Jin’an, yet you didn’t go. Instead, you went looking for Lu Zuiyou and gave the brocade pouch to him!”

Lan Ruobing had set up traps for her revenge before she died. She had used herself as bait to lure some people out of the Deceased Royal’s Mansion so that she could free her brother from spies.

However, Lan Ruobing dreamt of something before she died and only had Lin Rou by her side. The princess could only entrust Lin Rou with one last task, but she did not realize that Lin Rou had already switched sides..
