Lin Ranran summoned the Palace Guards as soon as she left the room.

"There's an assassin. Search everywhere for me."

The Eastern Palace was heavily guarded and surrounded by the Palace Guards. How could there be assassins breaking in?

The Palace Guards didn't believe it and thought that Lin Ranran was torturing them on purpose. But when they saw the man in black whose head was separated from his body, they immediately became vigilant.

Lin Ranran asked some guards to stay and protect Mumu, while she needed to personally go to search.

After being poisoned by her, there would be some strange fragrance left on the assassin's body, which could not escape her nose at all.

Soon, the Palace Guards searched the Eastern Palace but did not find any assassins. At the same time, the prince and Beigong Xue were alerted.

The prince heard that someone attempted to assassinate Lin Ranran but failed. What a pity! It would have been great if this woman could be killed. But she escaped. Who hired such a useless killer? They were so incompetent.

"My love, don't look anymore, let Lin Ranran handle it. Let's go to bed early!"

Beigong Xue was still a little worried. It was not a big deal that the assassins failed to assassinate her, but if they revealed her identity, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Therefore, when the prince asked Beigong Xue to rest, she was not in the mood at all.

"Your Highness, I think my sister is in need of help. Why don't you help her? Maybe she will give you the antidote when she is in a better mood?"

Di Dongheng' s eyes lit up. Beigong Xue was smart.

"Dress me."

Soon, Di Dongheng and Beigong Xue changed their clothes and went to find Lin Ranran.

The prince deliberately put on a look of great anxiety and asked, "What's wrong with you, Ranran?"

"Someone tried to assassinate me. One was killed by me, and the other ran away."

When Lin Ranran said this, there was no emotion in her eyes, as if she was talking about something very common.

She exuded a strong murderous aura, emitting an intimidating presence that kept people at a distance.

"Sister, this assassin must be eliminated completely. They are the most stingy. Letting them go will only bring endless revenge."

Lin Ranran looked at Beigong Xue, who was making sarcastic comments. How could a spoiled young lady know so much about a killer organization?

"Sister, how do you know so much about this? Are these assassins related to you?"

Beigong Xue was alarmed. She thought that Lin Ranran couldn't perceive anything, so she forced herself to calm down.

"Sister, what are you talking about? I'm just concerned about you. Why don't you appreciate my kindness?"

"Don't you know what color your heart is?"

Beigong Xue bit her lip fiercely. Lin Ranran was really despicable, how could she say that to her? She had better not fall into her hands, otherwise she would let her beg for life and death.

Beigong Xue looked at Di Dongheng with an aggrieved expression. Di Dongheng glared at Lin Ranran with pity.

"She's your sister, Lin Ranran. How can you say that to Xue'er?"

"Who is her sister? We have different blood flowing in our bodies."

Di Dongheng was about to argue for Beigong Xue.

They were sisters, and they would serve him together in the future. Naturally, they should get along well with each other. It was inappropriate for them to quarrel as soon as they met.

"Ranran? Didn't I say that you come back just to please me? From now on, you and Xue'er serve me together. It had better avoid conflicts."

Lin Ranran raised the long sword in her hand and swung it across the night sky.

In an instant, one of his arms was cut off by Lin Ranran.

The guard covered his arm in pain and kept screaming in agony.

Beigong Xue hid in the arms of Di Dongheng in horror, "Your Highness, how dare my sister use the sword in front of you?"

Di Dongheng was also scared out of the move by Lin Ranran.

How dare he preach Lin Ranran just now? He had forgotten how she had defeated hundreds of his guards in front of him before.

He knew that Lin Ranran' s sword was a warning to him. If he continued to speak, he might lose his arm or even his head.

Although assassinating the prince was a matter of implicating nine generations, Lin Ranran didn't care about the Beigong family at all. Even if it implicated nine generations, she might even be pleased with it.

Di Dongheng couldn't bring himself to say the words he was about to say. To preach Lin Ranran, was he tired of living?

"Lin Ranran, investigate the assassin well. I'm tired, so I'll go back and rest first."

Beigong Xue was a little dissatisfied. What was wrong with the prince on earth? Such a good opportunity to get rid of Lin Ranran, and yet he didn't take action.

Then, he could force Lin Ranran to hand over the antidote. She thought it was a simple matter, but the prince just had to be cautious and wary of Lin Ranran.

Was he afraid, or was he coveting Lin Ranran for her beauty?

It had to be said that Lin Ranran looked even prettier than she had been three years ago. She used to be a lotus flower that rose from the water, but now she looked like a fairy from heaven who had descended to the mortal world, making it hard for people to look away.

Beigong Xue followed the prince back to the palace and expressed her thoughts.

Di Dongheng scolded her directly, "Are you crazy? Do you want to kill me? Lin Ranran is crazy. She killed the guard without any hesitation. If you really push her too hard, we'll die together. If you want to die, go ahead. Don't drag me down with you."

Beigong Xue was totally dumbfounded. She did all this for the sake of the prince, but he scolded her instead.

She felt extremely jealous. She knew that it was impossible to rely on the prince, and she had to do it herself.

Lin Ranran looked down at the wailing guards on the ground with a smile and aimed the long sword in her hand at his neck.

"Isn't it hard to pretend?"

The guards on the ground stopped wailing in an instant and stared at Lin Ranran with murderous eyes, as if he was waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Now that he had fallen into this woman's hands, he did not intend to go back alive. However, he had to complete the task, even if it meant mutual destruction.

"How did you recognize me?"

"Do you want to know? When you entered my bedroom, you were infected with my poison. Not only will it make you lose all your internal strength, but it will also leave a strange fragrance on your bodies. Maybe you won't notice, but this smell can't hide from me. Now do you understand?"

Shijiu raised his head, and the hidden weapon under his tongue was aimed at Lin Ranran. Before he could do anything, Lin Ranran had already made her move.

As the long sword fell, Shijiu was beheaded.

She looked down at the assassin in disgust. "Playing tricks in front of me? You're too inexperienced."

"Get rid of the two assassins' bodies."

Lin Ranran had already figured out who sent these two assassins and she would soon know the organization they belonged to from her mouth.

The organization that dared to assassinate her, the Ghost Doctor? There was still no one who can survive to this day.

Lin Ranran returned to her palace and found that the smell of blood was a little heavy. She ordered her maid to clean the place while she stayed in the side hall.

Early the next morning, Lin Ranran bribed the maid of Beigong Xue.

For these maids, there were only two ways to bribe them. One was to use money, and the other was to use their lives. Unless they didn't want either of these, they could only die.

Moreover, Lin Ranran gave a lot of money, so the maid had no reason not to be tempted.

Therefore, Lin Ranran soon learned of Beigong Xue' s recent itinerary. She knew that Beigong Xue had gone back to Beigong family to see Second Madam and then disappeared for half a day.

According to Lin Ranran' s guess, during that period, she should have gone to find the killer organization.

It seemed that not only Beigong Xue but also the Second Madam Beigong knew about this killer organization.

That would be much more interesting.

Although she was the legitimate daughter of the Beigong family, she had no feelings for the Beigong family. Now the Second Madam colluded with Beigong Xue to deal with her. If she did not do something, it would be too inappropriate.

Lin Ranran wrote a letter and asked the white pigeon to deliver it to her subordinates.

The second branch of the Beigong family?

Perhaps the life of them was too easy.

The influence of Ghost Doctor spread all over the continent and involved all walks of life, especially when she had done a deployment in Tianfeng Kingdom. In other words, the Tianfeng Kingdom was the headquarter of Ghost Doctor.

These people acted recklessly under the influence of Ghost Doctor, they just sought death.

There was a name list of the people who attended the wedding banquet of the prince. Lin Ranran asked Mr. Wang for the name list and began to check it one by one according to the man's name on it.

She just didn't believe that she couldn't find the whereabouts of that man.

In just three days after Lin Ranran returned to the palace, the news had reached the Emperor's ears.

The prince wanted to help her conceal it before, but Lin Ranran fought hundreds of Palace Guards on her own outside the palace, how could this be easily covered up?

Di Aofeng just spilled the beans.

He even congratulated the Emperor that Lin Ranran had given birth to an imperial grandson.

The emperor was aware that Lin Ranran had been defiled on her wedding night. On top of that, the prince had later beaten Lin Ranran to death with a stick.

Lin Ranran' s own parents were also the heroes of the Tianfeng Kingdom. They made great contributions in the war at the beginning, so the emperor could not easily blame the Beigong family.

Moreover, it was a great shame for the royal family that Lin Ranran had been defiled by another man. Without making it public, they used the excuse that Lin Ranran died of illness.

But unexpectedly, this woman actually came back alive, bringing a boy with her.

The Emperor was a little angry. How did the prince handle things? He couldn't even get rid of a woman.

"Your Majesty, it's not easy for the imperial grandson to come back. He has to find his origin!"

Where did this bastard come from? How could he recognize his ancestors?

But he still answered with a smile on his face, "That's the way it should be, but I haven't seen the child yet. I have to meet the child first, right?"

"Your Majesty, you're right. I think it's better to set it at night so that you can see your grandson as soon as possible."

Did Di Aofeng want to laugh at him?

He hoped that the prince would keep Lin Ranran in check and stop her from talking nonsense at the banquet.

"Pass down my order. A banquet will be held tonight to welcome the crown princess and the imperial grandson."

The smile on Di Aofeng' s face did not reach his eyes. If he revealed on the spot that Lin Mumu was not the child of Di Dongheng, then there would be a good show to watch.

Lin Ranran was busy investigating what had happened five years ago. Just then, she heard that Mr. Wang had come to deliver a message. He informed her that she would take the imperial grandson to accompany the emperor for dinner in the evening.

She immediately stomped her foot, and was in no mood to continue investigating what had happened three years ago.

"Tell the prince that I'm not feeling well and it's not convenient for me to attend the banquet.."

"That little royal grandson."

"He's not feeling well either."

It was definitely not a good thing that the emperor invited them to a banquet. Moreover, Lin Ranran knew that Mumu was not a descendant of the royal family. If the emperor found out, he would definitely not let him off.

So it was best to avoid seeing each other.

"Your Highness, the emperor has given an order. No one can disobey it. I'm just here to deliver a message. Please make preparations as soon as possible."

Although Lin Ranran was arrogant, she knew that she couldn't disobey the emperor's order.

She could make a move on the prince, but she couldn't do anything to the emperor. That would be very disrespectful.

She didn't have enough ability to challenge a country.
