Reincarnated as the daughter of my mortal enemy, all I want is to ascend the throne.

Li Qingyan opened the envelope but couldn't understand the words inside.

"These are Northern scripts," Yan Li recognized at a glance. "I only recognize a little, but I know an old man who is very familiar with these characters."

It's really strange that someone from Beijing knows how to communicate using the northern script.

Yan Feizhang knocked on the door a few times and slowly walked in.

"Your Highness, Mr. Zhou." Yan Feizhang bowed, looking somewhat dejected.

Li Qingyan was in a hurry to leave, but glanced at him and said, "Brother, I have something to do. I'll come see you another day."

After saying this, Li Qingyan and her group left the academy.

Just as Mr. Zhou was about to leave, Yan Feizhang suddenly called him back.

"Why would you lie, sir? That safety lock clearly belongs to you."

Mr. Zhou turned around and approached him step by step.

He patted Yan Feizhang's head with a large hand. "Everyone has their own secrets."

Yan Feizhang closed his eyes briefly, then opened them again.

"Sir, you should leave as soon as possible. I don't want to say anything unpleasant."

He bowed to Mr. Zhou and then left.

That silhouette was resolute.

Mr. Zhou glanced at his palm, shook his head slightly, and then picked up the broom next to him to sweep the floor.

A dark figure landed in the corner of the room. "Master, should we kill him?"

Yan Feizhang is an exceptionally intelligent child. Letting him leave means he has discovered something, or rather, his identity has been completely exposed.

"No need. He won't say anything before I leave."

Mr. Zhou slowly swept the dust in the yard. In fact, he would come to clean regularly every day, whether the director was there or not.

He was raised by the dean, and Yan Feizhang was also raised by him.

You can never bring yourself to hurt a child you raised yourself.

"He's repaying my kindness, so be it... so be it... from now on we're even."

Mr. Zhou looked at the leaves that were gradually turning yellow. He thought that people's fates were like these leaves, and one day they would all fall.

He said with his eyes closed, "Get ready, it's time to evacuate. Oh, right..."

A smile crept across his lips. "Let's see if we can kill her."

"Yes, Master."

The shadowy figure disappeared.

A tear slid down Mr. Zhou's cheek, and a sigh echoed in the courtyard, "So tired."

Are you tired from sweeping?

The carriage traveled along the official road. Hongyu glanced outside a few times and said, "Someone is following us."

There's nowhere to hide on this official road.

The fact that their bodyguards didn't follow means they must have been entangled and couldn't break free.

Hongyu and Cuiping have already drawn their swords.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh"

Several arrows whistled through the air. Hong Yu quickly flipped onto the roof of the carriage, and in a few moves, the arrows fell to the ground.

Two men in black leaped onto the carriage and began fighting with Hongyu. Cuiping handed Li Qingyan to Yanli, "Take the little prince and run. Quickly!"

The three got out of the car and ran away. Cuiping was also entangled by the men in black while trying to buy time for the other two.

"Flying Fork, come quick, someone's trying to kill me!"

[The electroshock needle has been prepared for the host]

Then, a needle appeared in Li Qingyan's hand. Just as a man in black blocked Yan Li's path, Li Qingyan casually threw it, and the man began to convulse on the ground, and soon smoke began to rise from it.

"Um?"

Yan Li paused for a moment, then picked up Li Qingyan and continued running.

"How many volts does this 'flying fork' have?"

[Two hundred and fifty]

That's... such an auspicious number.

After running to a spot, Yan Li took out a whistle from his pocket and blew it.

Several men in black were already not far behind them.

Suddenly, a jet-black horse charged out from behind the group of men in black. It raised its front hooves and kicked one of the men in black with its hind hooves, sending him flying. The others were too frightened to approach.

Most horses are sensitive and timid, but this black horse was completely domineering, even snorting at the people in disdain.

Although I couldn't understand the language, I could tell that the insults were very vulgar.

Yan Li carried Li Qingyan and mounted his horse, which then galloped off down a narrow path.

"Dark clouds, dark clouds, change direction."

The dark clouds did not obey and continued to move forward.

Li Qingyan's lips twitched. "Is this your horse?"

Yan Li was also helpless, "Of course, it's just... Dark Cloud has a rather unique personality."

Sometimes they obey, sometimes they don't; they really have a personality.

As they ran, the dark clouds suddenly stopped, revealing a precipice ahead.

The men in black were hot on their heels and had already closed in. Yan Li drew his soft sword from his waist. "Your Highness, I'll clear a path for you. In a moment, hold onto the dark cloud by the neck, and it will take you to the military camp."

Yan Li's martial arts skills were not as good as Yan Xu's, and he could not guarantee that he would survive, but he could buy Li Qingyan some time.

After Yan Li finished speaking, he charged towards the group of men in black.

"Take the young prince away with the dark clouds."

Wu Yun stamped his feet a few times in his haste, intending to obey and leave with Li Qingyan.

Just then, green leaves flew from afar, heading straight for the faces of the men in black.

In the blink of an eye, all the men in black fell to the ground.

"Who?"

Yan Li, sword in hand, looked around warily.

"No need to panic, I'm just passing by." The boy looked no more than fifteen years old. "My name is Xi Zhao."

Xi Zhao was dressed like a江湖人 (jianghu person, someone from the martial arts world).

He was just passing by when he saw a group of men in black chasing and killing a little girl, so he intervened. He didn't intend to stay long, and after saying that, he turned and left.

At this age, with such martial arts skills, Li Qingyan rubbed her face; she was even more formidable than the bodyguards around Li Yan.

Yan Li frowned; this person looked very familiar, like someone else.

Hongyu and Cuiping also ended up with a bunch of minor wounds.

The group went to a small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Li Qingyan and Yan Li bandaged their wounds.

This courtyard is the courtyard of the old man they are looking for.

"You brat, how many days have passed before you come to this old man's place, and you're covered in injuries? What happened, you got into a fight with someone?" The old man grabbed Yan Li's ear and scolded, "What about the time you roasted my chicken? You little rascal..."

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Uncle Yu, please be gentle. Didn't I buy you ten hens as an apology? They'll lay quite a few eggs today. My ear... be gentle... my ear."

Yan Li's wailing was even more unpleasant than a wolf's howl.

Cuiping and Hongyu both covered their ears, and Li Qingyan, who was also feeling unwell, quickly went to help him.

"Grandpa, Yanli wasn't fighting; he was trying to save me."

Upon hearing the little child's voice, Uncle Yu quickly looked down and saw Li Qingyan's little face, his face immediately breaking into a smile.

"Little one, he was saving you? Then I'll spare him this time. Are you hurt?"

Seeing Yu Bo's gentle demeanor, Yan Li's lips twitched. They had known each other for ten years, and he had never seen Yu Bo give him a kind look. He quickly rubbed his reddened ears.

Li Qingyan took out several letters from her bosom. "Grandpa, I would like to ask you to help translate them."

Uncle Yu, who had a slight limp, struggled to approach Li Qingyan, even though it was only a few steps away. Holding the letters, he glanced at them, and his expression grew increasingly grim. His voice turned cold.

"Little brat, who are you? And how did you get this thing?"

Yan Li covered her ears and sat on a bench nearby. "Don't scare her. This is the Emperor's third princess, Li Qingyan. Everyone calls her Princess Xiao."

Upon hearing Li Qingyan's identity, Uncle Yu instinctively bowed. Li Qingyan quickly took his arm, "Grandpa, I'm here to investigate a case. I've found this clue, so... thank you for your help."

Uncle Yu was a little scared when the emperor's daughter called him "Grandpa." He must be tired of living to be called "Grandpa" by the emperor's daughter.

Uncle Yu glanced at the letter and sighed. "This matter is likely to involve many people. Even if you get rid of the person, Your Highness, if you continue to investigate, many others will still be after you."

"I'm not afraid. I knew this day would come if I dared to investigate. Anyway, my father is here, he will protect me."

After saying this, not only was Li Qingyan shocked, but Fei Cha was also extremely surprised.

Does its host have someone it trusts now?

That's fine.
