"Huangfu Xuan is truly a good schemer. He killed Chu Yang, then framed Wang Lingyun and the others, accusing them of killing the Divine Fragrance Girl's husband. If this is confirmed, then no matter how thick-skinned the Divine Fragrance Girl is, she absolutely won't marry Wang Lingyun and the others!"
"That's right! If Huangfu Xuan continued to hypocritically investigate Chu Yang's murderer, it would be easier for him to capture the Divine Fragrance Girl's heart. "
"Unfortunately, Huangfu Xuan didn't succeed. Moreover, I heard that the five great young masters joined hands and heavily injured him. In the past few days, the people of Qi Manor have been saying that the five great young masters sent people to assassinate him. "
…
Huangfu Xuan seemed to have spoken his thoughts for everyone to hear. Many things actually spread from the mouths of the people, causing a storm in the city. Everyone in the city knew about it.
When some people summarized the recent events in Tai Capital, they discovered that apart from the assassination of the country bumpkin Chu Yang, the remaining assassinations were all targeted at Qi Manor. This made people even more convinced that Wang Lingyun and the others were working together to punish Huangfu Xuan.
Wang Lingyun and the others didn't say anything, seemingly tacitly agreeing with this statement. However, Huangfu Xuan didn't seem to have any intention of pursuing Wang Lingyun and the others, causing people to feel that this matter was a bit strange.
The six great young masters of Tai Capital all had their own thoughts.
"Huangfu Xuan, who do you think is a fool?"
"Do you think you're the only one pretending to be a fool? Simply laughable!"
Wang Lingyun, Xie Xiubo, and the others naturally had to investigate after Chu Yang's death. They naturally also sensed something, so it was true that they wanted to take revenge on Huangfu Xuan.
However, the five of them didn't discuss this matter. They just seemed to have a tacit understanding, which led to this situation.
Huangfu Xuan naturally also knew this. He knew that he was the victim of his own cleverness, but he was powerless to retaliate. He could only suffer in silence, unable to voice out his bitterness.
The Wang, Xie, Chen, and Wu families were absolutely not afraid of Qi Manor. Their foundations were truly too deep, even if Qi Manor was part of the imperial family. Another problem was that this was Huangfu Xuan's fault in the first place, so Wang Lingyun and the others were even more unbridled.
The last reason was that Huangfu Xuan would never be able to find anything that could be used against the four families.
Amidst the storm in the city, something even bigger happened. One of Huangfu Xuan's doppelgangers was assassinated, and he couldn't be more dead. He had completely lost one of his doppelgangers.
This was only the beginning. Huangfu Xuan's original body had been assassinated as well. His heart had been pierced by a sword, and his head had been cut off. This caused an uproar in the entire city, and it also caused the matter to become even more chaotic.
This time, the Wang, Xie, Chen, and Wu families could no longer remain calm. This was not their doing. It was as if someone had deliberately provoked a conflict between them and the Qi Manor, and even the entire imperial clan.
At this time, the role of the magistrate of Taijing City showed itself. He once again paid a visit to the Qi Manor, as well as the Wang, Xie, Chen, and Wu families. As the link between the five families, he explained the situation clearly and eased the conflict. However, the matter was not over yet.
Huangfu Xuan was furious and used himself as bait. In the end, he ended up in a miserable state, having his heart pierced by a sword and his head cut off. However, there was no danger to his life, but it was embarrassing.
He refused to accept this and tried to take the risk again, but the result was the same.
When someone described Huangfu Xuan's experience as "Lu Tizhi punched Zhenguanxi", saying that Huangfu Xuan took three punches and opened all kinds of shops, people immediately thought of Chu Yang — could it be that country bumpkin's doing?!
As a result, Chu Yang's survival was acknowledged by more people.
Later on, Huangfu Xuan couldn't take it anymore and tried to take the risk again, but the result was the same. He was still pierced by a sword, and his head was cut off. Every time he tried to take the risk, his head would be cut off again.
Therefore, the assassin in the dark specially came up with a nondescript couplet —
Eat, sleep, beat Doudou!
