C70 The Work of Having Money but Not Having a Life to Spend

Everyone widened their eyes in shock. What was going on? Why would the Crown Prince suddenly attack the eighth princess?

Queen turned pale with fright, his heart in his throat.

"Xun Er..." The anxious voice trembled as it pleaded.

"S-royal brother ?" Murong Lingshan was extremely afraid, she had never seen such a Murong Xun before. Since she was young, no matter how angry her royal brother was, he had never moved a finger towards her.

Both Puyang Bingwei and Bai Ruoyu frowned deeply.

The Crown Prince was abnormal, could it be that Bai Li?er was really dead? A flash of excitement appeared in both of their eyes at the same time.

Seeing Murong Lingshan's fearful eyes, Murong Xun frowned, the strength in his hands gradually relaxed.

"Cough, cough ?" When his neck loosened, Murong Lingshan immediately retreated a step, holding onto his neck and started coughing frantically.

The last time it was Bai Li?er, and this time it was her most beloved royal brother. Why? Why did her royal brother do this to her?

"It would be best if it wasn't you, otherwise our relationship would be broken." Her ice-cold voice seemed to be permeated with frost, shocking everyone present.

His Highness the Crown Prince actually wanted to cut off all ties with the eighth princess for the sake of the Miss Bai. It seemed that the Crown Prince had truly fallen for the Miss Bai.

Seeing that Murong Xun cared so much about Bai Li, Puyang Bingwei and Bai Ruoyu both clenched their fists in jealousy.

Queen frowned, his eyes filled with displeasure. Is this still her Xun Er? Ever since Bai Li?er recovered, he had completely changed.

Bai Qingyan walked out of the resting room with tears in her eyes. Without saying a word, she knelt in front of Murong Shuofeng and kowtowed immediately.

"Fourth Sister-in-Law, what are you doing? Quickly get up!" Murong Shuofeng frowned, he immediately wanted to help her, but he felt that it was inappropriate.

"Your majesty, your daughter was hunted down in the hunting grounds, and she is seriously injured. I request that Your Majesty uphold justice for her." Bai Qingyan said, and then kowtowed again.

Bai Qingyan's words caused the expressions of Puyang Bingwei and her to turn ugly at the same time.

Heavily injured? Is Bai Li?er still not dead?

When he thought about Bai Li?er's injuries, Murong Shuofeng frowned deeply and said with a serious face, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Even if you didn't say anything, we would have still investigated this matter thoroughly.

Murong Shuofeng glanced in Murong Lingshan's direction as he said that.

Murong Lingshan's body trembled, and his face instantly became deathly pale. What does royal father mean by this? What did it have to do with her that Bai Li?er was being hunted?

Puyang Bingwei and Bai Ruoyu were so scared that they lowered their heads at the same time.

Puyang Bingwei tightly clenched his fist, his heart filled with unease and anxiety. Why did she have the misconception that the Emperor saw her earlier? Did the Emperor see something?

Bai Ruoyu was so scared that his face turned white, and his clenched fists were covered in cold sweat. Who would have thought that the situation would turn out like this? This group of idiots dared to make a move in this kind of place. They were simply courting death. The most important thing was that even after making such a huge scene, he was still alive. How foolish.

Other than Murong Lingshan, Puyang Bingwei, Bai Ruoyu and the other two, Queen's expression was also abnormally ugly. Her long fingernails dug deep into her palm, and her sinister eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred.

"Thank you, your majesty." Bai Qingyan thanked him and then entered the resting room.

Bai Li was injured, and no one had any intention to fight anymore, so the hunt ended early. Very soon, the results of the Autumn besieging hunt would come out. First Bai Li, second Xue Qingyan, third Murong Xun.

No one had any objections to the result. The performance of the top three was impressive, especially for Bai Li. Her absolutely stunning performance had caused everyone to remember her, to the point that when the news of her hands being crippled spread, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

In the Imperial City, in the Misty Rain Tower, Dao Ba and Ma Zi were playing and joking with a girl in each other's arms.

"Come, give this grandpa a kiss." The pockmark pulled the green-clothed girl beside him into his embrace, and the monkey hurriedly kissed her.

"It's been a while since Sabrelord has come to see Mei Er. Why is it that Sabrelord doesn't want Mei Er anymore?" The woman in red leaned into Dao Ba's embrace and tugged on his beard with a charming smile.

"Yes, it hurts my heart to think about it." Dao Ba held the woman in red and buried his bearded face in her chest.

"Boss." Blackie hurriedly entered one of the private rooms on the second floor.

Seeing Blackie return, Dao Ba pinched the face of the woman in red beside him and said, "You two go out first."

The woman in red and the green-clothed woman with pockmarks immediately stood up and obediently retreated, closing the door behind them.

"Is the money coming back?" Dao Ba glanced at Blackie, then he picked up the wine jug and poured himself a cup of wine.

Hei Zi shook his head. "I did not see Second Miss Bai. He refused to see me."

Dao Ba's action of pouring wine paused for a moment, and then he smacked the wine cup onto the table in dissatisfaction, "What, she still wants to renege on the debt?"

Hei Zi was startled by Dao Ba's sudden action. He swallowed his saliva and said, "No, it's that Bai Li?er that didn't die."

"What did you say?" Dao Ba quickly jumped up from the chair.

The pockmark finally put down his glass and looked at Blackie with a face full of shock.

"Bai Li?er did not die. He fell off the cliff and was saved." Blackie explained simply.

Dao Ba was stunned for a long time before regaining his wits, "He didn't die even after falling from such a high cliff. This fool's fate is really tough."

He had previously checked the cliff before, but it was so deep that he couldn't see the bottom. It might even be more than three thousand meters tall, and for Bai Li?er to not die even after falling down from such a heavy injury, it was simply a miracle.

Thinking of something, Blackie took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Dao Ba, "This is a letter sent by a little beggar, it should be written by the White Second Miss. Boss, take a look."

Dao Ba took the letter and read it carefully.

Looking at Dao Ba's increasingly ugly face, Hei Zi and Ma Zi became nervous. "How is it?" What did Second Miss Bai say? "

Dao Ba raised his eyes, "She said that the transaction has been cancelled, and said that we should temporarily not touch Bai Li?er."

"Why?" Ma Zi frowned with a puzzled expression. Didn't Second Miss Bai always want to get rid of Bai Li?er? Now that Bai Li?er was not dead, why would she cancel the deal?

"Yesterday's assassination in the hunting grounds had alarmed the Emperor. His Majesty ordered someone to thoroughly investigate this matter. She doesn't want to bring disaster upon herself."

Fortunately, they weren't the ones who took action yesterday, and it would be really troublesome if they were targeted by the royal family.

"Then what should we do now?" Hei Zi and Ma Zi looked at each other, frowning nervously.

Dao Ba's eyes slightly narrowed, "Listen to her, stay put for now. In the future, don't take on such dangerous tasks anymore."

They couldn't afford to offend these people from the royal family. What was the point of having money these days? It was better to stay alive.

"Yes." The two of them immediately responded.
