After infiltrating the main characters' group, I became the most beautiful woman in the world.

"Susu, are you ready? We're about to leave."

Tangxi knocked on the door.

Before long, the door opened from the inside, and the first thing to step out was a pair of delicate embroidered shoes, followed by a pale yellow skirt embroidered with osmanthus patterns.

Her waist-length hair was styled in a simple bun, with the rest tied up with a hairband. Her beautiful eyes smiled charmingly, making it impossible to look away.

Su Ning stepped forward and affectionately took the other person's arm: "Xi Xi, I heard our next destination is Qingyun, which I've never been to before."

The two talked as they went downstairs.

"Yes, Hundred Flowers Valley is in Qingyun. It's a beautiful place with clear waters and lush mountains, and the valley is full of all kinds of flowers. We'll be passing through there, so we can explore the scenery. I guarantee you'll love it."

Tangxi smelled the fragrance in the other person's hair and felt that these past few days were the happiest days of her life.

Ever since Brother You's jade pendant gave that pig-headed magistrate a hard time, the other party indeed dared not play any tricks. During the few days they stayed in Luoyun, they could see the yamen runners arresting people everywhere every day.

In the past few days, besides wanting to see what that pig-headed magistrate was up to, she and Su Ning have also almost explored the entire city of Luoyun.

Their relationship quickly heated up, which infuriated Yue Zijin, haha.

Pei Yunlian also personally went to see the Li family's ancient tomb outside the city, and sure enough, it had been bulldozed. However, there was one thing: Su Youde and his son had run away.

However, they were in a hurry to get on their way, so even though Su Youde had run away, they didn't have time to search for him one by one and could only set off today.

"Aaaaaaah! Why is this happening?!"

From afar, they could hear Yue Zijin's wailing. Su Ning, arm in arm with Tang Xi, approached and found that breakfast had already been served on the table. Pei Yunlian sat upright like a pine tree, leisurely eating his porridge.

Yue Zijin, standing to the side, looked listless, like a wilted blade of grass, slumped on the table humming and moaning.

Tangxi took a bite of a pancake and said irritably, "What are you doing, so early in the morning? If your tooth hurts, go find Brother You to treat it."

Su Ning sat opposite Pei Yunlian and smiled slightly at him. In an instant, the boy's ears perked up. He lowered his head, his eyes drooping, and his thick eyelashes obscured the emotions in his eyes, as if he was about to bury himself in a bowl at any moment.

"Where did things go wrong? How could my sleeping potion have let them escape?"

He used to be very skilled at it in the village, and even some people in the martial arts world were bewitched by it.

Yue Zijin was completely baffled. Su Youde was the mastermind, and he should have been the first to be beheaded. However, the yamen runners had searched Su Family Village from top to bottom in the past few days, but they still couldn't find him.

And the other party's two sons, it's like they've vanished into thin air, they can't be found no matter what.

Yue Zijin looked at Su Ning with some self-reproach.

"I told you you'd crash and burn eventually. Your little tricks are no match for anyone in this world, but I didn't expect you to crash and burn so fast, not even an old man could keep you in check."

Tangxi swallowed the pancake in her hand and gave the other person a big eye roll.

Su Ning, the only one who knows the inside story, is currently feeling extremely uncomfortable, while Xiao Qi is still in a dormant state.

"Su...Su Su, why aren't you wearing any pearl flowers today?"

To appear more relaxed, Pei Yunlian casually asked a question, though her voice still sounded a little awkward.

This also drew the attention of Tangxi and Yue Zijin. Only then did Tangxi notice that the other woman's cloud-like hair was adorned with only a single plain hairpin.

"Oh right, Su Su, why didn't you wear that jasmine bead flower the other day?" Tang Xi had always tied her hair up casually with a hairband since she was a child so that it would be easier for her to practice martial arts.

Therefore, she remembered the beaded flower in Su Ning's hair very well because it was exquisitely made and Su Ning had been wearing it since they first met. Later, she learned that it was made by Su Ning's grandfather for his granddaughter.

Yue Zijin leaned close to Pei Yunlian's cheek, scrutinizing his expression. Seeing that the other's expression remained unchanged, she slowly hummed, "A repressed pervert, even noticing which jewelry a young girl is wearing."

Pei Yunlian: "..."

I really want to beat this guy to death.

Su Ning touched her bald head and sighed, "Perhaps it was accidentally knocked off in the crowd on the way back from the yamen that day."

"Oh, that's such a pity."

Tangxi knew that the pearl flower was of great significance to Su Ning, and now that she heard it was lost, she couldn't say anything more. She could only comfort her, saying, "It's okay, we can buy another pearl flower. Qingyun City is much more prosperous than Luoyun City, and there will definitely be more beautiful jewelry there."

Su Ning remained obedient and nodded, making it impossible to discern her true emotions.

Everyone remained silent and ate their breakfast in quiet.

Su Ning ate her porridge, but she didn't feel much emotion. Perhaps it was very meaningful to the original owner, but for Su Ning now, she had never even met Old Man Su, so how could she have any feelings for him?

Everything she's doing now is simply to gain the trust of the main characters.

Life is like a play, it depends on acting.

After the group finished their meal, Su Ning realized that someone was late in arriving.

Where is Brother You?

Upon hearing her question, Tang Xi slapped her forehead. "Oh dear, I forgot to tell you. Brother You said the case is closed today, and he's going to keep an eye on that pig-headed magistrate. He told us to set off first and meet him at the post station outside the city at noon."

Upon hearing that the case was closed, the girl in yellow clearly showed a happy expression. "In that case, no woman in Luoyun City will ever again lose her life silently. That's wonderful."

After saying that, she looked at the three people in front of her and said, "It's so good to have met you all."

Even when the girl doesn't smile, she is already stunningly beautiful. But when she smiles from the bottom of her heart, it's as if a hundred flowers are blooming in the garden, and you wish you could pluck the stars from the sky just to win a smile from her.

Even though they saw Su Ning's face every day, the three of them couldn't help but be momentarily stunned, and then they all burst into laughter.

Yue Zijin: "Oh, it's so good that you could join us."

Tangxi: "Susu, you're with us now, and we'll have many more opportunities to fight for justice in the future."

Pei Yunlian: "To right wrongs is simply my duty."

The four of them were having a great time. Su Ning got into the carriage, Yue Zijin drove, and Tang Xi also gave up riding a horse and rode in the carriage with Su Ning. The three of them chatted and laughed, while Pei Yunlian sat on horseback and led the way.

Meanwhile, in the government office, the man in blue sat calmly to one side, while Zhu Xiu, dressed in official robes, stood trembling with fear, wiping the sweat from his brow from time to time. At this moment, he dared not offend this seemingly weak and helpless physician.

"You mean, His Highness Prince Ling is going to send someone to replace me?" Zhu Xiu wiped the sweat from her forehead.

"What, does Your Excellency think this punishment is too harsh?"

The man merely raised his eyes slightly, causing the other to shiver. "No, no, no, you misunderstand me. I have committed such a grave mistake; this punishment is already an act of great kindness from His Highness."

Zhu Xiu quickly waved her hand.

Clearly, the man in blue didn't want to waste any more words with the other party. After reading the case's closing statement, he left the courtroom directly.

After watching the other person leave from outside, Yan Ping went into the inner room and saw the fat body sitting trembling in a chair.

"My lord, why should we be mindful of the attitude of a mere江湖白衣 (jianghu white-clad figure)? Even if he possesses items belonging to Consort Shouhua, so what? He might not even recognize His Highness Prince Ling."

Yan Ping considered himself the other party's confidant, but his words were met with a barrage of insults: "You scoundrel, you only come up with terrible ideas. I am, after all, a county magistrate, and I have connections above me."

He glanced around and whispered, "Last night I received a message from a high-ranking official in the court, and that's how I learned that the jade pendant was personally carved by Prince Ling from the finest jade and presented to the Dowager Consort!"

"The master repeatedly warned me never to anger the person who possesses this jade pendant!"

Zhu Xiu was filled with deep regret. He never imagined that after all these years of living a carefree life, he would be defeated by a江湖人 (jianghu person).

Yan Ping was both shocked and furious. He hadn't expected that the man in white would have such a powerful backer. At this moment, he realized that this case was ultimately their destiny...
