From the clues they had so far, Empress Dowager Deng was very likely the real culprit who killed the entire Feng family.

However, Yu Niaoniao still had many doubts.

“Why did Li Niang leave the Deng family back then? Who’s the father of the child in Li Niang’s womb? And that nameless charred corpse. Who is he? Why does he have an emerald bracelet?”

Xiao Juan could not answer and could only say.

“Maybe when we see the Empress Dowager, we’ll understand all these things.”

The two of them were talking when there was a knock on the door and Ling Hail s voice came in.

“Your Highness, Princess Consort, Old Master Deng said that the carriage is ready. He asked me to ask when you can set off.”

Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan pushed open the door and walked out.

They arrived at the central room.

He realized that other than Deng Yuchuan, the rest of the Deng family had also arrived, including Deng Yuchuan’s son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren.

Deng Luyun, whom they had met yesterday, was among them.

When they found out that Old Master Deng was going to the Imperial Capital, they were very worried. After all, Old Master Deng was already old and his health was no longer as good as before. What if he tired himself out from traveling back and forth?

However, Deng Yuchuan had already made up his mind. No one could change his decision.

Helpless, the Deng family could only choose one of the juniors to accompany Old Master Deng.

This chosen person was Deng Luyun.

When the Deng family saw Duke Lang and his wife appear, they went forward to greet them.

As the eldest son of the first wife, Deng Huai was about to exchange a few pleasantries with Duke Lang to use this opportunity to close the relationship between the two sides so that Duke Lang could take care of his father more along the way.

Unexpectedly, before Deng Huai could speak, Deng Yuchuan beat him to it.

“You’re finally here. Go!”

With that, he walked out with his walking stick, looking eager.

Deng Luyun hurriedly reached out to help him over the high threshold.

Deng Huai had no choice but to swallow his words and send Duke Lang, his wife, and his Old Master out.

They sent them all the way out of the Deng residence.

In the end, Deng Huai could not help but worry. He quickly ran over before Xiao Juan could mount his horse.

“Your Highness, my father is old and impatient. I hope you can take good care of him along the way.”

Xiao Juan replied, “Yes.”

“Although I don’t know why my father is going to the Imperial Capital, something that my father would do anything for must be very important to him. However, there has to be a head at home. I really could not leave.”

“If my father encounters any trouble in the Imperial Capital, please help him if you can. If you can’t help, please send someone to give us a message. Please.”

With that, Deng Huai took a step back, raised his head with both hands, and bowed to the end.

His attitude could be said to be very sincere and solemn.

Xiao Juan replied again, “I will.”

Deng Yuchuan saw this scene through the carriage window and immediately urged.

“Alright, stop talking. Let’s go!”

Xiao Juan mounted his horse and clamped his long legs around the horse’s stomach. The horse dashed off.

The convoy moved down the long street.

Deng Huai bowed to his father’s carriage. He hoped that his father would be safe and return early.

Not only did Deng Yuchuan bring his grandson, Deng Luyun, but he also brought nearly a hundred private soldiers.

These private soldiers were dressed as guards and rode on horses with swords. They were in charge of protecting Deng Yuchuan and Deng Luyun.

The group passed through the city gate and officially left Luzhou.

The commoners looked at the long line and whispered to each other.

“Those look like the Deng family, but who’s the man riding at the front? Why haven’t I seen him in Luzhou before?”

“I don’t know. He doesn’t look like an ordinary person. He might be an important guest of the Deng family.”

“The Deng family is making such a big scene. Where can we go?”

“Who knows? Maybe he just wants to go out and have fun.”

There were more than ten men standing at the back of the crowd.

They were wearing ordinary rough clothes and carrying bows and arrows. They were dressed like a group of hunters who had come to the city to sell goods.

But in fact, they were the killers who had assassinated Yu Niaoniao last night.

At this moment, they were watching Xiao Juan and the others leave and discussing softly.

“Boss, they’re all gone. What should we do?”

“Master has ordered us to get the bracelet back. If we don’t, we’ll all die.”

“Then we can only take a chance.”

The group quietly left Luzhou and secretly followed Xiao Juan and the others, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.

When the night darkened and Xiao Juan and the others stopped to rest, the assassins attacked when they were unprepared. But when they rushed into the carriages, they found it empty.

The assassins immediately realized that they had been tricked!

They wanted to retreat, but it was too late.

Deng Luyun surrounded the assassins with the guards.

Looking at the masked assassins in front of him, Deng Luyun shouted imposingly.

“If you want to live, surrender obediently!”

On a small hill not far away, Deng Yuchuan could not help but sigh when he saw this scene under the moonlight.

“He’s still too young.”

Xiao Juan understood what Old Master Deng meant. Those were all death warriors. It was impossible for them to surrender. The correct way was to capture them as soon as possible and not give them a chance to commit suicide.

In the end, it proved that Deng Yuchuan and Xiao Juan were right. When those assassins realized that they had nowhere to escape, they made up their minds and slit their throats.

Seeing this, Deng Luyun hurriedly got someone to stop them.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

These assassins were extremely ruthless. In the blink of an eye, they were dead.

Ling Hai helped Deng Yuchuan down the hill. Yu Niaoniao, Xiao Juan, and Lo Pingsha also walked down.

When they reached the carriage, they saw a pile of corpses.

Deng Luyun stood at the side, sword in hand. He wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say. He looked a little at a loss.

He was extremely talented in martial arts. In addition, under the guidance of a great teacher, he had good martial arts at a young age. No one in his generation was his match. When others came to the Deng family as guests, they would praise him as a young hero when they saw him. He would definitely become a great person in the future.

He had originally thought that he would only capture a few assassins. With his strong martial arts and numbers, he would definitely be able to take them down easily.

Unexpectedly, it ended like this.

Now everyone was dead. No one was left alive.

As for who the mastermind was, they still knew nothing.

Deng Luyun felt extremely stupid.

He didn’t even dare look up at his grandfather. He was afraid of seeing the disappointment on his grandfather’s face.

Seeing him like this, Deng Yuchuan sighed.

“Take this as a lesson. Be careful next time.”

Only then did Deng Luyun dare to look up. His childish face was filled with frustration and self-reproach.

“I’m sorry..’
