Ye Han and the men in black quickly got into a fight, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Ye Han had defeated them all.

Li Taoyuan sat on the ground in fear. He never expected that Su Liluo would have such a powerful bodyguard!

Su Wanshi clearly told him that Su Liluo had married a powerless and crippled crown prince who was not favored at all, and that Su Liluo was suffering every day in the Eastern Palace.

He was handsome and charming, and as long as he tried hard to seduce her and let her experience some pleasure, she would fall in love with him.

That crown prince doesn't have much time left to live. Once the crown prince dies, he and Su Lilu will be free!

He had seen Su Liluo's portrait beforehand, was attracted by her beauty, and agreed to give it a try.

I never expected her to be so amazing. What should I do now?

"Tie them up! Send them to the authorities!"

Su Liluo looked at Li Taoyuan, who was shrinking back, and smiled coldly.

"Yes! But Your Highness, it seems someone is approaching from afar. I'll send another team of guards over!"

Ye Han was a martial artist, so he could sense footsteps from a hundred meters away.

He was a first-class bodyguard and couldn't be seen by too many people.

And so, the chill of the night quickly disappeared.

Then a strong gust of wind blew in, and suddenly three or four more people dressed as guards appeared from all directions and corners.

They came over and stood beside Su Liluo: "Greetings, Crown Princess! We are here on the orders of the Crown Prince!"

Su Liluo was slightly surprised and touched. She hadn't expected Xiao Ye to be so thoughtful.

After exchanging pleasantries with Jiang Qinshu in the living room for a while, the two of them, accompanied by their maids, walked towards the garden.

Jiang Qinshu walked towards Su Liluo at the time she had privately agreed upon with Su Wanshi, her heart filled with excitement.

As they walked, he pretended to chat with Su Li.

"Sister Li, don't look at that—"

"ah!"

Just as Jiang Qinshu was walking ahead and talking to Su Li, Su Li suddenly shouted, interrupting her.

Jiang Qinshu was thrilled, thinking that things had gone well, while Su Li had heard some filthy noises.

As a result, she listened in the direction of her ear and turned her head to look.

"Ah! This..."

Jiang Qinshu also screamed.

Li Taoyuan and several men dressed in black were seen tied up and hung from a tree, their bodies bleeding from being whipped.

Su Liluo looked at them with a sinister smile on her face.

"How...how could you treat your cousin like this?"

After realizing what had happened, Jiang Qinshu trembled as she questioned him.

The scene was clearly not supposed to look like this...

"Cousin? I have no cousin who wants to assassinate me!"

"Assassination? What assassination?"

Jiang Qinshu was stunned, and Su Li was also confused.

Didn't I say I brought her here to see a good show?

A good show that can both get rid of that stepson and teach Su Liluo a lesson?

With something stuffed in his mouth, Li Taoyuan could only mumble and beg for mercy, trying to explain.

Su Liluo spoke sternly: "Li Taoyuan hired assassins in the Su family garden with the intention of murdering me. Not only is he guilty, but your entire Su family must also be investigated! I have already sent someone to report this to the Prefect of the Capital!"

"What!"

Jiang Qinshu let out a scream.

My head suddenly felt dizzy, and I passed out.

Soon, the Prefect of Jingzhao arrived; it was Zhang Jing again, just like last time.

When Su Wanshi saw how things had developed, she was both frightened and confused.

She never expected that Su Liluo would secretly lead a team of guards to protect her!

Zhang Jing brought Li Taoyuan and others to the court for a joint trial, and everyone from the Su family went to listen in.

Xiao Ye also rushed over upon hearing the commotion, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Liluo was safe and sound.

At the same time, I feel that my concerns are valid.

The Su family really is always thinking of bad ideas.

"Li Taoyuan, you hired assassins with the intention of murdering the Crown Princess in the Su family garden. There are witnesses to prove it. Do you plead guilty?"

The prefect asked sternly.

Li Taoyuan was already terrified and explained in a fearful tone, "My lord, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! I had no intention of murdering the Crown Princess! The Crown Princess is my cousin, how could I..."

"Then why did you bring assassins to attack the Crown Princess in the garden?"

This is because...

Li Taoyuan couldn't bring himself to say it.

Because if he were to admit that he coveted the Crown Princess, that would also be a serious crime.

So he could only look at Su Wanshi, begging her to save him.

Su Liluo naturally noticed this gaze and asked directly, "Why are you looking at Su Wanshi? Is it related to her?"

Su Wanshi shuddered in fright and immediately explained, "No, I, I didn't."

She absolutely cannot admit it!

Su Liluo smiled coldly, "If you reveal who is behind this, you may still have a way out. If you don't, your entire Li family will be imprisoned!"

"What? He's the only one who made a mistake, so why should the entire Li family go to jail?"

Before Li Taoyuan could speak, Su Li exploded upon hearing Su Liluo's words.

Although she was disappointed that she didn't get to see Su Liluo make a fool of herself, she was happy to see Li Taoyuan arrested.

But now that she heard that Li Taoyuan would implicate the entire Li family, she was unhappy.

"Outrageous! Murdering the Crown Princess is a capital crime. It's good enough that your entire family hasn't been executed. What are you shouting about, you ignorant woman!"

The prefect roared at Su Li.

Su Li was immediately terrified, her body trembling: "My lord, please forgive me, I... I didn't know. This unfilial son made a mistake, please don't implicate us!"
