Chapter 375: Transition from Old to New (1)_1

"Last night an assassin came to the Prince's estate. Though the land's inhabitants could not catch him in the act, the assassin was injured by a dog kept on the estate." Si Jinhan declared calmly.

Zhang Da and the others secretly cursed their luck. As soon as they heard the door noise, they should have let their servants leave. But the noise Si Jinhan had created was so brazen that they had momentarily neglected to be vigilant. Now, if the person is discovered on the scene, they will be caught red-handed.

"So, it seems the Prince and the third young master are here on official business. But everyone here is familiar, the assassin definitely wouldn't be among us." The head of the Ji family lowered his stance as well.

"Yes, it's just a small gathering of us, and the people here are servants from each of our residences."

"Right, there are no strangers here, the assassin certainly isn't here."

...Everyone present echoed in agreement.
