That night, when Xuexue returned from outside, it was already the dead of night.
Zi Xia had been waiting up for her to return before she could go back to her room to rest with peace of mind.
Early Morning the next day, the entire Capital was in an uproar.
Because a corpse was hanging in front of Prince Pu's Mansion. It was said that a Night Watchman, an old man, was the first to discover it.
Before dawn even broke, the old Night Watchman's screams shook the entire street, as people dressed and came out to see...
The old Night Watchman was seen collapsed on the ground with panic written all over his face. Yelling out, he stared at the space above Prince Pu's Mansion's gate in horror.
Following his gaze, everyone saw a corpse hanging above the gate of Prince Pu's Mansion. Since it wasn't fully light outside, in the dimness of the night, it was quite terrifying.
On seeing this, the crowd too was tremendously shocked.
This is terrible, there's been a death!
