Dong Huiying was already bewildered by Shu Yu’s attitude, and now seeing the other members of the Liang family looking panicked, she was completely at a loss, utterly confused.

"What’s going on with you all?"

The young mistress tilted her head adorably, looking particularly naive.

Moreover... 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

She glanced at the second master by her side and twitched the corner of her mouth.

The second master was the cleanest in the family, with a cleanliness obsession that was almost intolerable, extremely fussy.

But now, look at him, the previously spotless white clothes were covered with big footprints, and also, the corner of his mouth was bruised, his eye was purple.

Then looking at Zhi Chen and a few others who just entered, they also looked like they had taken a beating.

She pressed her temples, not needing to think to know, this was surely because... not long ago, the second master kidnapped her from the manor, causing public outrage.

Yixuan smiled, extremely calm, a smile without showing teeth, just quietly and elegantly watching his embarrassed brothers.

This Bai Qiehei managed to escape a catastrophe, now among the brothers at home, he remained the most neat and dignified.

Shujun fluttered over like a butterfly: "Xiao Hui, how are you? Are you okay?"

Dong Huiying felt inexplicably puzzled, "I’m fine?"

But she was a bit puzzled why Shujun would ask this?

Yue Ning, that blockheaded kid, suddenly glared angrily at the poker-faced fourth brother.

"Fourth brother!!!"

Haoming stiffened, then spoke in a muffled voice: "Wife, Wife, in panic!"

He was known as the Wolf King, also regarded as the King of Beasts, with the manor filled with all sorts of animals, even flies and mosquitoes were under his command.

So before, when Dong Huiying noticed the Eighth Princess plotting and hurried to find Her Majesty the Empress and the Great Commander, her appearance at that time was seen by Haoming’s ’subordinates’, and they reported it to Haoming with utmost loyalty, which led to...

Possibly realizing he made a colossal blunder, Haoming looked even more wooden than usual.

Dong Huiying looked at him and then at the others, suddenly understanding the key to the situation, and burst into laughter.

Her laughter was like the blooming of a hundred flowers, instantly enlivening the atmosphere.

Under Shujun’s leadership, a few brothers complained about Haoming, while Yue Ning puffed with anger.

Haoming kept a wooden face, blinking innocently, then adopted a look of closing his eyes and ignoring the mundane world.

You speak, as much as you like, you scold, as much as you like, after all, I just won’t make a sound.

Dong Huiying: "Hahaha!"

Everyone else laughed too, the false alarm felt thick with comedic flavor, even Her Majesty the Empress, witnessing the extreme harmony of this large family, couldn’t help but curl her lips in a smile.

Meanwhile...

...

Grand Commander Liu Chunfeng arrived outside Chuixue Manor.

Seeing two Hidden Guards walking back, the Grand Commander frowned and asked, "Where is she?"

The Hidden Guards were stunned, these two were the ones responsible for executing the order earlier, assigned to execute the Eighth Princess.

"Grand Commander? Are you asking about... the Eighth Princess?" But, it was an order from Your Majesty.

Could it be that Your Majesty regretted it?

The two of them felt a bit uneasy, saying: "The Eighth Princess has been executed by us, as ordered."

The Grand Commander was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Take me to see."

So the Hidden Guards led the Grand Commander to the place where the Eighth Princess was executed.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving here, they found it completely empty.

There was a bloodstain on the ground, but...

The body was gone?

The Grand Commander’s pupils contracted!

...

"Your Majesty!"

The Grand Commander hurried back to report to the Empress.

Reporting truthfully what he saw and heard.

"As per your instructions, she has been executed, but... the body cannot be found."
