Chapter 37: The Female Assassin

eal."The maidservant's voice was perfunctory.When she reached the gate, the maidservant had disappeared. All that remained on the ground was a tray with two cold overnight steamed buns. Nothing else.T...After administering the anesthetic to Nangong Ye, Qing Xuan immediately took Nangong Ye into the hand ring space.

After being scanned by the instrument, his condition was as she had estimated. He will be fine to have surgery tomorrow.

However, just as she brought Nangong Ye out from the bracelet, Qing Xuan heard movement in the courtyard.

Someone stepped on the fallen leaves she had deliberately placed by the door.

The withered leaves made a slight crackling sound.

The night was quiet, and she had excellent hearing.

Qingxuan immediately noticed something was wrong.

Someone broke into the room secretly!

Qingxuan hid behind the door, carefully listening to the sounds outside. Her heart pounded in her chest.

Now Qingxuan's biggest worry is that she doesn't know how many people are inside the hospital.

If it's just one, she still has a chance to handle it. But if there are more, things get dangerous.

Qingxuan looked at Nangong Ye, who was still unconscious on the bed, and hurriedly took out a bottle of anesthetic spray from her space.

Soon Qingxuan noticed the shadow outside the window, there was only one person!

That's okay.

She let out a long sigh.

At that moment, she realized the other party hadn't pushed the door open, but instead had broken through the window paper with a slender bamboo pipe and blown smoke into the room.

Good fellow!

So she's using the same tactics!

Qingxuan immediately covered her mouth and nose with a silk fan, waiting for the other party to retract the bamboo tube. The moment they pushed open the door, she seized the opportunity and sprayed the person with the aerosol.

Her drug was a 25th-century wonder drug. Anyone who inhaled it would be knocked unconscious within seconds.

There was a dull thud.

The man who broke into the room fell to the ground with a sound, his sword in hand.

To her surprise, the killer turned out to be a woman!

and she was a pretty girl.

With such a face, she would at least be a well-respected lady in this world. How could she end up being an assassin

But the female assassin is just right.

Make it easy for her to be searched!

Two hours later, the assassin bound beneath a large tree in the courtyard slowly awoke.

At the edge of the pitch-black sky, a glimmer of fishbelly white appeared. The assassin saw the woman before him.

Qingxuan stood in a beam of morning sunlight. She had her hair styled in a woman's bun, her features delicate, and her dark eyes were filled with a tender radiance.

A flicker of surprise crossed the killer's eyes.

Killer: "Are you a maidservant in this household, or the newlywed wife of the Sixth Prince"

Qingxuan sized up the killer's surprised reaction, but she didn't return the look. She asked, "Why kill the Prince"

The killer, mouth set hard, jerked his head up and declared, “I'm in your hands now. Kill me or skin me as you see fit!”

Qingxuan: “Do you hear me Don't you want to save AYue's life anymore”

Qingxuan, speaking, took out a pouch she had found on the assassin.

This lucky pouch is a particularly popular wish-fulfilling pouch from Qinglong Temple recently. It involves writing your wishes on the pouch and carrying it with you. On the first and fifteenth day of each month, take the pouch to Qinglong Temple to offer incense.

She knew this because of the original owner's memories.

The original owner also had a pouch like this. Inside the pouch, a piece of paper with a wish was written: hoping for a better life with her mother.

After her mother passed away, the original owner, disheartened, threw the pouch into the brazier filled with burning paper money.

Now that everyone is gone, her wish will never come true in her lifetime.

Thinking about this, Qingxuan only felt a tightness and discomfort in her chest.

The killer's voice sent her reeling between realities.

As soon as the assassin spoke, to the assassin's astonishment, Qingxuan immediately returned the sachet.

Qingxuan: "If I can cure AYue's illness, in exchange, tell me who sent you to assassinate the Prince"

Although the woman before him appeared to be a beautiful young lady from a wealthy family, Qingxuan found a poison for suicide in her mouth when she was unconscious and searched.

If she hadn't removed the poison from her mouth, the assassin before her would have already committed suicide by poison.

That is to say, she is a professional killer.

The killer showed no emotion whatsoever upon hearing this.

The assassin let out a cold snort. "Kill me."

The assassin's reaction was as Qing Xuan had expected.

That's right, she doesn't look like a doctor at all.

Fortunately, Qingxuan was well-prepared.

Qingxuan took out a cage.

This cage was given to her by Namgung Yeop. It originally belonged to him and he used it to keep birds, but now she's using it to hold the mouse she spent two hours painstakingly catching.e revered, a man like a celestial being. Even if he fell into the abyss, he faced the darkness alone in the palace.No one would speak of his worst side in front of others.Qingxuan felt pity for Nangon...
