Chapter 4035: It Wasn ‘t Night Light?

Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the next few days…

Chu Tianxiao was going to see something amazing.

Of course, that hadn’t happened yet.

Feng Wu followed Princess Yan Ling the whole time.

For some unknown reason, Princess Yan Ling had been treating Feng Wu much better recently. Instead, she had neglected Shijian, who used to be her maid. Hence, Feng Wu could now see how things were going with her directing.

She realized that things had slowed down a little.

After Princess Yan Ling killed Night Light and flaunted her power in front of the Dongsang King, she was taken away by Ma Quanquan.

Feng Wu didn’t know exactly what Ma Quanquan had taught her, but judging from how dispirited Princess Yan Ling was, she suppressed her arrogance.

She didn’t even mention Night Light anymore.

Feng Wu thought to herself, “That won’t do.”

She had come up with a series of traps. What was the point of sticking here? The death of Night Light wouldn’t affect the Dongsang King at all, let alone the entire Dongsang Kingdom.

She had to keep it going until she got Lord Jing, Night Owl, and the Dongsang Kingdom involved. In the end, she might even get her third senior brother involved.

That way, she wouldn’t have to look for her third senior brother and could just meet him.

At that thought, Feng Wu stole a glance at Princess Yan Ling.

Right now, Princess Yan Ling was reclining on a chaise lounge with a look of distaste on her face and a malicious look in her eyes every now and then.

Seeing that Feng Wu had come back with some refreshments, Princess Yan Ling glanced at Feng Wu and said coldly, “Come here!”

Feng Wu carefully walked up to her.

Staring at Feng Wu, Princess Yan Ling snorted. “Do you know why I wanted to kill Night Light?”

Feng Wu shook her head.

Princess Yan Ling then asked Shijian, “Do you know?”

Shijian was about to answer when Princess Yan Ling said indifferently, “Shijian, you were on duty outside that day. Tell me in detail. What happened three nights ago?”

Shijian dropped to his knees and looked flustered.

Seeing how flustered she was, Princess Yan Ling frowned. “So, you know?”

Shijian shook her head. “I don’t know. I really don’t…’

Princess Yan Ling said coldly, “Since you know what happened that night, tell me the details. Don’t worry. Not only won’t I kill you, I’ll also reward you.” Shijian shook her head.

Princess Yan Ling suddenly smiled. “Haven’t you been trying to serve my brother? He’s been asking for you as well. Don’t worry. If you help me this time, I’ll take you to him. How does that sound?”

Shijian was elated. She almost asked, “Princess, is that true?” Luckily, she was able to control herself.

However, she couldn’t hide her joy. Therefore, Feng Wu noticed the contemptuous look on Princess Yan Ling’s face.

However, Shijian didn’t see it because she had lowered her head.

Shijian was about to speak when Feng Wu spoke first. “Princess, I have a stomachache and really need to…”

Princess Yan Ling glanced at her and said indifferently, “Alright. Go.” Feng Wu left in a hurry.

Princess Yan Ling looked at the Shijian and said indifferently, “Good. We’re alone now. If you have anything to say, just say it. If you say the wrong thing, I promise you that you won’t be punished.”

Shijian looked at Princess Yan Ling in pleasant surprise. “Princess, are you sure?”

Princess Yan Ling said coldly, “Of course, I am. Have I ever gone back on my words? Plus, my brother likes you so much. Why should I hurt you? You’ll have to work for me after you become his concubine.”

Shijian liked the sound of that. After some thought, she said to Princess Yan Ling, “Yuexin was on duty in the inner room that day, and I was on duty in the outer room.”

Princess Yan Ling nodded.

She had asked Shijian before, but the girl wouldn’t say anything and only said that she didn’t know. Now that Yan Ling had promised to give Shijian to her brother, Shijian could finally tell the truth.

Shijian searched her memory. “I didn’t know what happened in the room, but I saw a figure come back with a sack.”

A ferocious look flickered in Princess Yan Ling’s eyes!

Apart from herself, who else could it be?

Princess Yan Ling stared at Shijian. “Then?!”

Shijian said in a trembling voice, “Then… I didn’t think much of it. I only thought that the person who came back with the sack looked familiar, but I was scared… so I didn’t tell anyone.”

Princess Yan Ling gritted her teeth. “Why didn’t you tell anyone?!”

Shijian said, “If… if that person went out with a sack over his shoulder, I

wouldn’t have kept my silence, but that person came in with something over his shoulder… So I thought that since it wasn’t stealing, I might as well keep it to myself.

“But the next day, Sister Yuexin…” Shijian took a deep breath. “I was so scared that I didn’t dare to say a word… So, I lied to you when you asked me the first time.”

Princess Yan Ling was secretly frustrated.

However, in order to force more truth out of Shijian, Princess Yan Ling fought back her rage and stared at the latter.

“Didn’t you say that the man with the sack looked familiar? Who was he?” That person was the key!

Princess Yan Ling thought to herself, “That person should be on Night Light’s side.”

If that was the case, she would be able to charge Night Light with kidnapping. That way, the Dongsang King wouldn’t have anything to say. At that thought, the listless Princess Yan Ling immediately cheered up.

“Although I still don’t know who he is, I’m good at drawing. I can draw a portrait of him.”

Princess Yan Ling said, “Do it!”

She had to have some talent to work for Princess Yan Ling.

In less than five minutes, Shijian had drawn the painting and presented it to Princess Yan Ling.

Princess Yan Ling narrowed her eyes when she saw the painting.

That man…

Even she found him familiar, let alone the Shijian.

However, she couldn’t remember who it was.

Who was he?

Where had she met him before?

Crossing her hands behind her back, Princess Yan Ling frowned and walked back and forth into the room.

Princess Yan Ling’s eyes suddenly lit up!

She had indeed met him in Night Owl’s manor.

It was him!

Princess Yan Ling immediately locked onto a person.

“He’s a guard of the Jing Manor… Lord Jing has been taking around.” Princess Yan Ling gritted her teeth and stared at the Shijian. “Are you sure he’s the one who brought me back?!”

Shijian said in tears, “Princess, I’m telling the truth! I’m telling the truth!”

Princess Yan Ling frowned. “It’s dark and windy, and everyone has to cover their faces when they commit crimes. Why would someone show their face?”

Shijian said, “Princess, the person indeed had a black scarf over his face, but Master Ma arrived in time, and that man panicked. When he jumped over a tree branch, he accidentally lifted the scarf, so I saw his face.”

“What a coincidence.” Princess Yan Ling frowned.

Seeing that Princess Yan Ling was suspicious, Shijian burst into tears. “Princess, I’m telling the truth.”

Princess Yan Ling was neither angry nor anxious. She only said indifferently, “I hope that’s the case as well. If you can prove that you’re telling the truth, I’ll reward you.”

Shijian said, “I still remember which tree. Shall I show you there? Maybe I can detect something on that branch.” Princess Yan Ling said, “Lead the way.”

Soon, Shijian led Princess Yan Ling to an old tree that was so thick that ten people could wrap their arms around it.

“Princess, it’s this tree,” Shijian said matter-of-factly.

Princess Yan Ling examined the tree carefully. At first, she couldn’t find anything, but soon, she spotted a footprint.

It was a man’s footprint.

“Wait a minute..”
