"Looks like the odds are against us this time!" "No regrets, sorry …" The silver sword in Yan Wuhen's hand danced up and down like a dragon, but there was a hint of guilt in his eyes. Before he had entered the pavilion, Xiao Jin Feng had vowed to himself that there would be no grievances between the two of them.

"Protector, you're too serious. If you don't regret it, you would be willing to die here." Xiao Jin Feng spoke firmly, and continued to fight to the death with the sword in his hand.

Seeing that Xiao Jin Feng and Yan Wu Hen were too weak, Leng Bing Xin and Ye Li looked at each other and suddenly rushed in from outside the circle. With the two of them working together and with the combined attacks of the crowd, Yan Wu Hen and Xiao Jin Feng retreated until they were forced into a corner.

Suddenly, a sword came piercing over. Xiao Jin Feng instinctively dodged, but neglected his own defense. With two "pa pa pa" sounds, Xiao Jin Feng's acupoints had already been pierced by Leng Bing Xin. Yan Wu Hen was now in a sorry state. Since he had subdued Xiao Jin Feng, Leng Bing Xin and the rest had focused all of their attention onto Yan Wu Hen. After ten moves, Yan Wu Hen had been subdued, but when Leng Bing Xin looked back, there was no trace of Xiao Jin Feng.

"Crap!" Which one of you saw the people here? " Leng Bingxin was extremely shocked, she had already pointed out Xiao Jingfeng's acupoints, no matter how good his martial arts were, it was impossible for him to break through them. If someone came to save her, she wouldn't even be able to see a shadow.

"Let's not worry about this for now. Capturing one of them is not going to disappoint our master. Let's go!" Ye Li could vaguely feel a group of people rushing over from outside the manor. He knew that his master had arrived with someone, so he made a gesture of letting go. The forty to fifty people picked up the injured and the dead. Along the way, only Wu Bingcheng and Yan Wuhen remained in the Wu Residence.

"Ghost …" "There's a ghost …" Throughout the entire process, Wu Bingcheng was still immersed in Xiao Jingfeng's mask, unable to extricate himself as his hoarse voice crazily shouted and roared.

The very next second after Leng Bing Xin and her group disappeared, the Wu Mansion's main gate was kicked open. A group of people rushed in with torches in their hands. After the officials and soldiers had been separated, Duan Xingyi appeared in front of them in his purple robe.

At this time, Wu Bingcheng's acupoints had already been opened.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Your Highness, save me … " Wu Bingcheng was so scared that he nearly peed his pants. He almost crawled to Duan Xingyi's side.

"I ask you, what happened just now?" The cold voice was filled with a sense of majesty. Wu Bingcheng was already incoherent.

"Ghost... This official saw a ghost with a green face and fangs. It was extremely terrifying. There were so many ghost shadows! Your Highness, save me! " Duan Xingyi snorted disdainfully as he slowly walked in front of Yan Wuhen, whose acupoint had already been pressed.

"How dare you! How dare you assassinate an important official of the imperial court. Do you know that this is a serious crime?" Duan Xingyi sized up Yan Wuhen from head to toe. Although he was a prisoner, he still had a high-spirited look on his face.

"Reporting to Your Highness, I am not the murderer, I was just passing by at night and heard Sir Wu shout 'Ghost', so I came to investigate, but who knew that the moment I entered the door, I was blinded by greed. If not for Your Highness' pressure, I think that the ghost would have taken my life as well …" Yan Wuhen looked at Duan Xingyi with a serious expression. Although he knew he was doomed, he couldn't let Duan Xingyi speak the truth and let others see that it was a trap. Duan Xingyi had asked Wu Bingcheng to flaunt his skills so that people from the Pear Blossom Pavilion could come and take his head, while he himself reaped the benefits of being a fisherman! As for Duan Xingyi, his intentions were also very clear. He wanted to find out who the mastermind was.

"Ghost? Do you believe in ghosts? Even if there was a ghost, there must be someone secretly doing it! Sir Wu, is this person trying to kill you? " Duan Xingyi coldly questioned, his beautiful eyes never leaving Yan Wuhen.

"No …" Not... It was a ghost! "A group of ghosts, their mouths are wide open …" At this moment, Wu Bingcheng was still in a panicked state and was spouting nonsense. When Duan Xingyi heard this, he flew into a rage. He immediately turned around and walked in front of Wu Bingcheng. Without another word, he sent a slap towards Wu Bingcheng.

Wu Bingcheng had never practiced martial arts, and with Duan Xingyi's short of breath, this slap was really not light. Wu Bingcheng's entire body was sent flying a few meters away and he almost fell to the ground.

"Cough, cough …" Blood gushed out of Wu Bingcheng's mouth, and the severe pain finally made him sober up a little.

"Men, come over here, Sir Wu!" Duan Xingyi suppressed the anger in his heart and commanded coldly. His subordinates didn't dare to neglect their orders and immediately dragged Wu Bingcheng in front of Duan Xingyi.

"I ask you, is this person trying to assassinate you at night?" His cold voice was laced with a bone-piercing killing intent. If he knew that Wu Bingcheng was acting this way, he might as well have Ye Li kill him as well. That way, he could die with no proof.

"Return... Cough cough … "Your Highness, it seems like..." "Seems like..." Due to his shock and drunkenness, Wu Bingcheng only had an impression of Xiao Jingfeng's face. While Wu Bingcheng was hesitating, Duan Xingyi raised his hand again. Wu Bingcheng had the same impression of this slap, so he immediately changed his words.

"That's the guy!" It was this person who wanted to assassinate this official! Your highness, the Crown Prince, is going to decide for this official … "We must bring the culprits to justice!" Wu Bingcheng said in fear, his rat eyes staring at Duan Xingyi's palm.

"How can there be no excuse for wanting to add insult to injury? I didn't expect the crown prince to be so decisive. Not to mention this one, even your hundred men might not be convinced …" Yan Wuhen bitterly opened his mouth as a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"Since Sir Wu has already identified your identity, come! Bring the criminal to the Sky Prison!" Duan Xingyi did not care about Yan Wuhen's sarcastic remarks as he ordered people to tie up Yan Wuhen. Then he left Wu Bingcheng's residence. After Duan Xingyi and the others left, the Wu Mansion was completely silent. Wu Bingcheng stood there blankly, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.

As for Yan Wuhen, he was escorted by the soldiers to the Wu Residence. In the dark, Zi Min's gaze turned cold. He was about to rush over when he was stopped by a mouse.

"Zi Min, you can't act rashly. It seems we're late. Let's go back and find Master!" Even if Zi Min was unwilling, she knew very well that even if she rushed out, it would be useless. She could only expose Duan Mu Yan to the crowd. Speechless, Zi Min had no choice but to leave Wu Bingcheng's residence with Zi Shu and the others.

In the Imperial Hospital, Xiao Yuxuan had already been drugged by Zheng Ting Ze and wouldn't wake up for a long time. At this moment, Duan Moyan was pacing left and right, and she already knew that Wu Bingcheng wouldn't have the guts to provoke the Second House of Qi; it was all her fault. If she wasn't overly worried about Xiao Yuxuan's condition, she wouldn't have overlooked this point.

"Mu Yan, don't be too anxious. I hope that Zi Min and the rest will be able to change the course of events!" At that time, Duan Mu Yan had already told Zheng Ting Ze of everything that had happened, and Zheng Ting Ze could be considered as a member of the Pear Blossom Pavilion.

"If anything happens to Wu Hen, how can I be at ease! No wonder Duan Xingyi didn't make any movements during this period of time. So it turns out that he's thinking of how to expose me! " Duan Mu Yan was filled with remorse. At this moment, Zi Min had already returned to Zheng Tingze's residence with the others.

"Pavilion Master, your subordinate was a bit late. Duan Xingyi brought Wu Hen to the Sky Prison!" The little mouse's sword-like eyebrows creased as it reported in a worried voice.

"Esteemed wangfei, you have to save Wu Hen. You have to save her …" Tears fell from Zi Min's eyes, her eyes were full of begging and anticipation.

"I will definitely not let anything happen to Wu Hen! Don't worry! Mouse, take good care of Zi Min, Master! " Duan Mu Yan frowned as a cold glint of determination burst forth from her eyes before she walked towards the secret chamber. The little mouse also understood Duan Mu Yan's thoughts. She was afraid that Zi Min would go and rob the prison in a moment of desperation.

Within the secret room.

"Master, now that Wu Hen has fallen into Duan Xingyi's hands, I'm sure he will use all kinds of methods to make Wu Hen reveal my identity. What should I do?" Duan Muyan clenched his hands tightly, she had no idea what to do next.

"Calm down first, don't mess around. Since the crown prince wants to get your information from Yan Wuhen, he will not harm Yan Wuhen for a short period of time. It is inevitable that we will suffer. During this period of time, we can think of a foolproof plan." Zheng Tingze spoke with a solemn tone, but he also didn't have a better idea in his heart.

"According to disciple's perspective, Duan Xingyi would definitely not imprison Wu Hen in an ordinary cell. It's impossible for him to escape." Duan Moyan did his best to calm himself down. The more dangerous the situation was, the more he couldn't afford to lose his mind.

"If hard attacks aren't enough, then we'll think of another way!" Zheng Tingze's expression was dark.

At this time, Yao'er had also hurriedly returned to Zheng Tingze's residence.

"Zi Min, what happened to Wu Hen and no regrets?" Yao'er suspiciously looked at Zi Min, only to see her face covered in tears. She knew that the two of them were probably done for.

"Wu Hen was taken away by the crown prince, but from beginning to end, we never saw him without any regrets!" The mice spoke truthfully. The light in Zi Min's eyes suddenly became ice-cold.

"She definitely will not regret it! He was a spy! It must be! " Zi Min suddenly unsheathed her sword and was about to charge out when Duan Mu Yan walked out.

"Zi Min, don't be rash!" Duan Mu Yan interjected.

"Pavilion Master, it is indeed suspicious that we don't regret. When Zi Min and I were at the Wu Residence, we didn't see any regret at all. We only saw Brother Wu Hen being pierced with his acupoints. This subordinate thinks that we definitely will not tell anyone about this secret. Otherwise, who would know that we were going to make a move tonight? " The little mouse said angrily.

If my plan wasn't wrong, Wu Hen wouldn't have gotten into trouble. Originally, I told Yao'er to invite Madam Qi and Madame Dou to the Spring Festival to prove their innocence, but it also proved that we were going to make a move tonight. This was originally a trap, and in that case, we had to tell Duan Xingyi that we can't make a move tonight. Duan Muyan tried his best to calm himself down. This was the first time she had failed since the creation of the Pear Blossom Pavilion, so he must treat this situation seriously.

"Reporting to Pavilion Master, when Zi Min and I arrived, there was only Wu Bingcheng and Brother Wu Hen left in the courtyard. After the two of them had their acupoints pierced, Duan Xingyi led a group of people and rushed in. However, after that, Duan Xingyi became infuriated and gave Wu Bingcheng a slap on the face. Only then did Wu Bingcheng change his words, saying that it was Brother Wu Hen who assassinated him! " Mouse described the scene from the beginning to the end.

"Catch ghosts …" Duan Mu Yan contemplated for a long time before speaking.
