After listening to Du Shan's report, Gao Mucheng felt relieved. He originally thought that this palace maid might be the princess's confidant, so the risk of getting rid of her would be too great, and it would be difficult for him to do it. Now that he knew that she was just an ordinary low-level palace maid, Gao Mucheng no longer had any worries.

This matter is just a piece of cake for him, and of course he is happy to be a smooth favor.

After pondering for a moment, he said to Du Shan: "I can't keep this palace maid. Tomorrow, you come with me to find her and trick her out of Yonghe Palace. Just let her... accidentally slip and fall into the water."

Du Shan took a breath and his expression suddenly changed. Killing a palace maid was no small matter. He swallowed his saliva and said: "Sir, if this matter comes to the ears of the king, we will not be able to live with it."

Gao Mucheng sighed and said, "Do you think I want to do this? This is Mrs. De Rong's intention, and there is nothing I can do about it."

Du Shan asked puzzledly: "How could a little handyman in the Yonghe Palace offend Mrs. De Rong?"

Gao Mucheng waved his hand and said: "Don't ask, we just need to do the Wang family's business. Don't ask why. If you know too much, you might be the one who accidentally falls into the water and drowns. Read the full text ”

Du Shan shuddered and quickly closed his mouth. Gao Mucheng took out the brocade box given to him by Yuan Qianyi from his sleeve, opened it, handed it to Du Shan, and said, "This is a little bit of Mrs. De Rong's wishes. You can pick one."

"I don't dare," Du Shan was startled and hurriedly lowered his head.

Gao Mucheng smiled, picked up a bead, put it into Du Shan's hand, and said: "I won't hide my secrets, not to mention this is a reward from Madam, I don't dare to hide my secrets, just accept it, just for tomorrow's work." , start low, otherwise, if people see the traces, we will be destined to collect the treasure, and we will have no life to appreciate it..."

The next day, Gao Mucheng and Du Shan walked around the Yonghe Palace for a whole morning, until at noon they waited for the palace maid named Ji Cui to come out. She was holding a large wooden bucket filled with garbage.

"Sir, we're out," Du Shan, who was nearby, suddenly lit up his eyes and warned in a low voice.

Gao Mucheng turned his head and looked carefully. Jicui looks too ordinary, with ordinary facial features, a thin and small body, and dark skin. She looks like she is malnourished. Because she is too thin, it is very difficult to carry such a big wooden barrel.

After reading this, Gao Mucheng secretly smiled bitterly. He was actually reduced to the point where he wanted to attack a maid working as a handyman in the palace. He shook his head, winked at Du Shan beside him, and then followed Ji Cui at a short distance.

After she had walked out for a while, she was far away from Yonghe Palace and there was no one around. Gao Mucheng and Du Shan suddenly stepped forward to catch up with Ji Cui and said at the same time, "Is this Miss Ji Cui in front of me?"

Upon hearing this, the palace maid immediately stopped and turned her head, looking at Gao Mucheng and Du Shan with a blank look on her face. After standing dumbly for a while, she came to her senses, put down the barrel in her hand, and Fu Li said, "My maid Ji Cui has met these two adults."

Gao Mucheng walked up to Ji Cui and said with a smile: "Miss Ji Cui, please come with me. I have to ask the girl about some things."

"But the maid still has to do things." Jicui looked at the big wooden barrel in his hand in embarrassment as he spoke.

"We can do these things later." Du Shan stepped forward, took the barrel from Ji Cui's hand without any explanation, raised his head and said, "Girl, please."

Du Shan didn't give Jicui any room to refuse. After speaking, he took the lead and walked forward. Jicui could only follow behind him helplessly, while Gao Mucheng walked behind. The two of them seemed to be sandwiching Jicui in tandem.

The three of them turned left and right in the corridor of the palace, and came to a quiet garden. This garden was very spacious, and there were fake lakes and rockeries. In the summer, there were green grass, rippling microwaves, and colorful flowers. The scenery is really charming, but it is the deep winter season now, the grass is withered and the flowers are withered, and few people come here anymore.

When he reached the lake, Du Shan finally stopped and turned around to look around carefully to see if anyone else was here. Jicui's face was full of confusion and she asked stammeringly: "Sir... what did you do with your maid here?"

Du Shan was a secret assassin and knew the defenses inside the palace very well. He knew that there were no defenses nearby, and he didn't see anyone else. He felt relieved, and then his true colors were revealed. He turned around and looked at Ji Cui with a ferocious smile on his face. , said: "What to do? Of course I'm sending the girl on her way."

"On your way?" Jicui still had a puzzled face and said blankly: "Where? Where do you want to send your maid?"

"Under the Nine Springs" The ferocious smile on Du Shan's face disappeared, replaced by a fierce look in his eyes, and his fingers slowly bent.

Hearing this, Ji Cui was shocked and could not stand. She sat down on the ground, her face turned pale, and she stammered: "My maid... My maid has not made any mistakes... She has not offended these two adults..."

"If you just offend us, it's okay to say that you don't have to die. But if you offend Madam de Jong, then even the gods can't save you."

"Is... Mrs. De Jong sent you to kill me?"

"Of course, so under the circumstances, if you want to blame, just blame Mrs. de Rong..."

Before he finished speaking, Gao Mucheng, who was behind Ji Cui, frowned and coughed heavily, reminding Du Shan that you talked too much. Du Shan was shocked and didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Jicui realized what was going to happen next, and also realized why Yuan Qianyi wanted to kill her. She looked surprised and angry, raised her hand, and suddenly pulled out a hairpin from her head.

Unfortunately, before she could make the next move, Du Shan had already stepped forward, holding her wrist holding the hairpin with one hand, and the other hand covered Jicui's small face fiercely.

Jicui struggled violently, but how could her petite and weak body break free from Du Shan's big waist? She wanted to shout loudly, but her mouth and nose were covered tightly and she couldn't say a word.

She twisted and struggled, her little face first turned red, gradually, turned pale, and then turned blue. Not long after, her body softened, her eyes widened, and she was out of breath. The hairpin originally held in her hand also fell to the ground.

After covering her body for a long time and confirming that Ji Cui was dead, Du Shan loosened his hand, then grabbed Ji Cui's collar with one hand and her belt with the other, and threw his arms outward with force. With a splash, Ji Cui's body was thrown into the center of the lake.

He clapped his hands, rubbed them on himself, turned to Gao Mucheng and said with a smile: "Sir, we have finished this task." As he spoke, he was about to leave. Gao Mucheng smiled indifferently, stood still, and just nodded at his feet.

Du Shan looked down, his face changed slightly, and hurriedly picked up the hairpin that fell to the ground, saying: "Thank you for your reminder, I almost left a flaw."

As he spoke, he pretended to throw the hairpin into the lake, but the moment before he made a move, he suddenly felt something rolling inside the hairpin. He said with a puzzled look on his face, put the hairpin down again, and looked back and forth.

"What's wrong?" Gao Mucheng walked up and glanced at the hairpin in his hand. It was a very ordinary bamboo hairpin, and it looked a bit old. It was yellow and black. Even if it was thrown on the street, no one would pick it up.

"Sir, this hairpin... seems to be empty..." Du Shan shook the hairpin and said suspiciously.

"Oh?" Gao Mucheng raised his eyebrows, took the hairpin, and shook it casually. Sure enough, there was a slight vibration inside.

He frowned slowly, thinking back to the time when Ji Cui pulled out the hairpin first when her life was at stake. Could it be that there was some secret hidden in it?

Thinking of this, he bent his hands slightly, and heard a light click. The bamboo hairpin broke, and at the same time, a small ball rolled out of it and fell to the ground.

Du Shan was sharp-eyed, and quickly bent down to pick it up. Looking at the small ball, he murmured: "What is this?"

Gao Mucheng snatched it, first looked at it twice, then put it under his nose and sniffed it, and inhaled: "It is... a special spirit-gathering pill"

"Ah?" Du Shan was dumbfounded. After a moment, he came to his senses and said in surprise: "Could it be... that this palace maid is a spiritual practitioner hidden in the palace?"

"Otherwise, why would she take this out at a critical moment?" As he spoke, he looked at the spirit-gathering pill in his hand, his eyes shining. It is incredible that Ji Cui is a spiritual practitioner, and what is incredible is that Madam De Rong actually wants to get rid of her. Could it be that Madam De Rong has discovered her secret? If so, she can expose it openly. Why is she doing it so secretly? How many unknown secrets are hidden in it?

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. Gao Mucheng put the pill into his arms, and then said to Du Shan seriously: "Today's matter is beyond the scope of what you and I can deal with. You can't mention it to anyone, not even a word. Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, I know, and no third person can know it. Do you understand?"

At this time, Du Shan also realized the weirdness of it. He nodded repeatedly and responded: "Don't worry, sir, I will never reveal a word to the outside world."

"Very good, you immediately find someone to salvage Ji Cui's body, I will go to Yonghe Palace and report this to the princess"

"Yes, sir," Du Shan bowed and responded, turned around and walked away. After he left, Gao Mucheng also went to Yonghe Palace.

He calculated the time and felt that Du Shan had almost salvaged Ji Cui's body, so he entered the gate of Yonghe Palace.

When he walked into the hall, he looked up and saw that it was not only Yin Rou who was inside. There was another person sitting next to Yin Rou, Yuan Qianyi.

Gao Mucheng was shocked, but he responded respectfully and bowed respectfully, saying: "I am here to see the princess and the lady."

Yin Rou smiled at him and asked: "What does Mr. Gao want to see me for?"

"Uh--" Gao Mucheng was about to speak, but suddenly found that Yuan Qianyi's eyes were staring at him, with a gleam of light in them, which was chilling.

His heart trembled, and he swallowed the words on his lips, and said with a smile: "I am here... to inspect the guards of Yonghe Palace to see if there are any omissions."
