Qi Sumu did not answer her directly. "Although you're very famous and a lot of people are praising you, I don't know if you have any real ability."

"So?" Su Jia'er asked.

"There are three old cases unsolved in the Anzhou area."

Su Jia'er understood Qi Sumu's meaning. She glanced at him and said, "You want me to solve these three cases?"

"That's right. As long as you can solve these three cases and the cases I've mentioned, the items in this box will belong to you." Qi Sumu smiled faintly, exuding the aura of a victorious king.

Su Jia'er thought for a moment and said, "Let me guess, this case must have something to do with power, and it can't be solved even after so long. On one hand, there are people interfering, and on the other hand, no one dares to solve it. Am I right? " Otherwise, why would he specially come to find her, and even use his power and wealth to probe her? It was very likely that this case was either an official case or a harem.

Uh, harem. She did not want to return there, but for the sake of Broken Jade, she could only choose to return.

Qi Sumu's expression was one of admiration. "This case took place in the harem, and no one has dared to investigate it in twenty years."

Sure enough, it was the harem. Su Jia'er's expression became complicated.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard a buzzing sound. This sound! It's a bee used to track the black pines!

The sounds of horse hooves galloping came one after another.

Qi Sumu and the Steel Cavalry all heard the sound of the horse's hooves. Qi Sumu looked towards the direction of the horse hooves with a cold gaze. There were at least a hundred of them.

Su Jia'er paused, "Young master, I'm afraid I have one more condition."

"Deal with the newcomers?" Qi Sumu asked.

"Exactly." Su Jia'er looked at Qi Sumu, "This is not a bandits, I will help you solve the case."

Qi Sumu smiled. "Are you sure I will help you protect your village?"

With regards to this, Su Jia'er was very confident, "Since you came here from such a distance, it means that you have to do it to me."

The dust flew in the air, but only a large number of men in black blocked the entrance of the village instantly.

When the leader saw Qi Sumu, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. Su Jia'er saw that the man in black must have some sort of relationship with Qi Sumu.

Qi Sumu looked at the leader and smiled faintly. "What is Third Bro's Black Cloaked Guards doing here in the wilderness?"

The leader didn't expect Qi Sumu to recognize him. He immediately dismounted and bowed towards Qi Sumu. "Your subordinate didn't know that Seventh Prince was here. I've troubled you to death."

Qi Susu did not want to buy it, so she said, "Speak, why are you here?"

At that moment, Su Jia'er could feel a chill coming from Qi Sumu. It was so cold that it could make a person's heart tremble.

"This …" The leader was sweating. Of all the princes, only the Seventh Prince was the scariest. No one could fathom his emotions. No one could guess what he was thinking. He was cold-blooded, ruthless, decisive, murderous.

At this time, one of the black-clothed men spoke up, "Reporting to Seventh Prince, this was a confidential matter, but Seventh Master is not an outsider, so this servant will be frank." Yesterday, when that Fourteenth Prince was attacked by bandits on his way back to the capital, the Third Prince received the news and immediately sent us to find Fourteenth Prince. "

Qi Sumu raised her eyebrows. "Oh?" Third brother is in the capital, Lan Ling. Even if you travel day and night, you still wouldn't be able to reach here so quickly. "

The leader spoke up. "Seventh Prince forgot. The Emperor told Third Prince to pick up the 14th Prince at the border."

The high-ranking officer beside Qi Sumu whispered into his ear, then Qi Sumu said, "Then go find him, tell me if you find 14th brother."

Su Jia'er looked at the leader carefully and then looked at the men in black again. It seemed that the Fourteenth Prince had provoked quite a powerful force. Yesterday, the ones chasing him were a group of people, and today, these men in black who relied on bees to track him were another group of people. The battle for the royal family was still as intense as before.

The leader glanced inside the village and said with an obsequious smile, "Seventh Prince, can you let me go inside the village and look around?"

Qi Susu was silent. She looked at Su Jia'er and said calmly, "There are no outsiders in our village. Since you're here to find someone, that person shouldn't be hiding from you, right?"

Su Jia'er's words caused the leader to be at a loss for words. Although he was smiling, he had already killed Su Jia'er thousands of times in his heart. The Third Prince told him to find the Fourteenth Prince no matter what, but the Seventh Prince screwed him up. Not to mention this woman in disguise stopped him, could it be that the Fourteenth Prince was really in this village? The bees couldn't find their way around this area, and there was only one village nearby.

"Did you hear what she said?"

The leader refused to give up. "Seventh Prince, if this little girl is lying and wants to hide the Fourteenth Prince from the government for money." Now, it seemed, it would be impossible to complete the Third Marquis' orders, and his identity had already been exposed.

"She is the person I want to invite to the capital." There was displeasure in Qi Susu's tone.

The leader hurriedly apologized, "I have no intention of offending Seventh Prince."

Su Jia'er looked at Su Xiaoyi's hand gesture and said, "You guys go in and search. Don't disturb the villagers."

The leader looked at Qi Sumu and waved his hand. Then, he led the men in black into the village.

After searching for a while, he still could not find the person he was looking for.

The leader of the men in black apologized to Qi Susu once again. Qi Susu did not make things difficult for him and told him to continue looking for the Fourteenth Prince.

The leader glanced at Su Jia'er and smiled obsequiously, "I wonder what is the Seventh Marquis taking this girl to Beijing for?"

Qi Sumu snorted, "Do I need to report to you about my work?"

"No, no, no, no. This subordinate will go find the 14th Prince right away." Afraid of angering Qi Sumu, the leader of the men in black led the men in black away.

Su Jia'er looked at the man in black walking away and said, "They are very afraid of you."

Qi Sumu laughed deeply. "They're not afraid of me, but of the Seventh Marquis' identity."

"That's true." After confirming that the group of men in black would not return, Su Jia'er said, "Let me go back and pack up."

Su Jia'er was about to turn around and leave when Qi Sumu grabbed her arm and stared at her, "Fourteenth Brother, are you here?"

Su Jia'er looked at the hand holding her arm, "If I say I'm not here, will you believe me?"

Her arms were so soft that they were boneless. Qi Susu could not help but say, "I don't believe you." "No," he said.

Su Jia'er stared at the hand that had not let go of her hand. The heat emitted from her palm made her feel at a loss of what to do. How long had it been since a stranger had touched her?

"Then, can I believe you?" She raised her gaze to meet his.

Their gazes met, and in that instant, their hearts palpitated.

Qi Sumu let go of her, but she was still reminiscing about the softness of his grip on her. He turned his gaze away and looked towards the village. "If he's here, you'll only bring disaster to the village if you keep him here. You should know this better than me."
