OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess-Chapter 987: Your Sister Has Offended the Princess
As night fell, the sky turned dark and thick.
By midnight, every household had turned off their lights and fallen asleep.
Feng Fuce and Liu Jiru were heading toward the home of the Third Old Lady.
Zhi’er originally wanted to tag along, but Feng Fuce sent her back to the palace to rest.
He told her he would give her the results directly the next day.
Liu Jiru coughed lightly all the way, holding a bulging bundle in his arms.
It seemed to be filled with a lot of silver.
Feng Fuce, beside him, barely spoke to him.
Liu Jiru was puzzled.
After thinking for a while, he couldn’t help but ask, "Why did the Marquis save me and is even willing to help me?"
Feng Fuce glanced at him coldly.
"Directed by someone," he said.
Liu Jiru was surprised: "Who?"
In this world, aside from the Emperor and the Princess, who else could command Marquis Wan?
The next second, Feng Fuce said: "The Princess."
Liu Jiru was thoroughly shocked.
Feng Fuce replied indifferently, "The Princess told me that Liu Yingnan’s brother is a good person."
"He doesn’t know about his sister’s deeds and pleaded to the Gods for her sake."
"So, she hoped that I could help you."
Liu Jiru was dumbfounded: "But I’ve never met the Princess..."
Feng Fuce’s lips curved into a cold smile suddenly.
"Never met? Think carefully, perhaps you’ve seen her but overlooked her."
"Maybe on the street, or even in a dream?"
He spoke to the point where it was almost obvious that Zhi’er was the Kunshan Goddess.
Feng Fuce told Liu Jiru these things without ulterior motives.
He simply disliked others impersonating his Little Demon Pet.
Moreover, he didn’t want the good deeds of Bai Zhi’er to go unrecognized.
He hoped for everyone’s acknowledgment of her kindness.
Liu Jiru seemed to understand.
"Could it be!" He exclaimed in surprise, "The Princess is..."
But Feng Fuce suddenly raised his hand to stop him from speaking.
"We’ve arrived; give me the bundle."
Liu Jiru hurriedly handed over the heavy bundle.
Feng Fuce placed the bundle at the door of the Third Old Lady’s house and then, along with Liu Jiru, waited behind a nearby tree.
There was only a little time left before midnight. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
Liu Jiru was a bit nervous.
"Marquis, if we catch her, what method do you plan to use to get her to tell the truth?"
Feng Fuce looked coldly at the door of the Third Old Lady’s house.
He spoke coolly, "The Xiuluo Guard has hundreds of interrogation methods; do you want me to explain them one by one?"
The name Xiuluo Guard struck fear into the hearts of the people.
Those caught rarely made it out alive.
In popular lore, it was even dubbed as a place that instilled fear in King Yan himself.
Liu Jiru guessed that if the Third Old Lady was captured and taken to the Xiuluo Guard, under severe torture, she would surely reveal the truth.
Soon enough, midnight had just passed.
The moon was directly overhead, casting a bright, frosty light on the ground.
Liu Jiru suddenly whispered, "The door opened; she’s coming out!"
Indeed.
The Third Old Lady’s wooden gate creaked open a sliver.
She was very cautious, first poking her head out to look around to see if anyone was lurking.
Upon seeing no one but spotting a bundle, she decided to step out.
Liu Jiru and Feng Fuce both noticed that the Third Old Lady had a bag strapped on her back.
Feng Fuce sneered, "She’s planning to run."
The Third Old Lady squatted down, opened the bundle on the ground to inspect it.
On top lay a pile of silver.
A greedy, delighted smile spread across the Third Old Lady’s face.
"A bunch of fools, really think I’d stay to save someone? Ha, your sister has offended the Princess; if she’s stupid, that’s her problem, don’t drag me down with her!"
The Third Old Lady muttered to herself while stuffing the silver into her clothes.
Meanwhile, she discovered that beneath the silver was a pile of stones!
The Third Old Lady was stunned.
Suddenly, torches flared up around her.
Lei Hu led a squad of Xiu Luo Envoy, surging in from nearby.
"By the order of the Marquis, seize her!"
