Strategy? I'm at full level and criticizing like crazy, taming sickly villains

Lan Yu looked a little uncomfortable under Jiang Li's gaze, and smiled reluctantly, "I just thought it was too cold, so I went to get the princess a cloak."

"I thought I might need the clothes for a while, so I brought them over with me. I didn't expect to hear that your clothes were wet as soon as I came over."

"It's cold today, princess, so don't just make do with wet clothes, it's easy to catch a cold."

Lan Yu's words were thoughtful and considerate, like a considerate maid who took care of everything. She even brought the cloak just as she said.

Jiang Li smiled, but he really didn't question her anymore. He just stood up and said, "Okay, let's go change."

Seeing Jiang Li get up, Qin Xiang, who originally felt that he had done his best and didn't want to meddle in other people's business, couldn't help but call her.

"Jiang Li!"

Jiang Li looked back at her, with no unnecessary expression on his face, only a rare and gentle smile, "What?"

Qin Xiang stared into her eyes, trying to convey his meaning to her, but he didn't know whether she really didn't understand or was just pretending to be stupid. She didn't respond for a long time.

She had no choice but to remind her, "Where is your other maid? Don't you... wait for her?"

Jiang Li said indifferently, "What are you waiting for her to do? Isn't there Lan Yu? It's enough."

Qin Xiang: "..."

She was speechless. She just felt that Jiang Li, who was usually such a sharp-tongued person, suddenly lost his senses at this time.

He wanted to say something more, but he was afraid that others would notice. After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Li followed Lan Yu without looking back.

That's all... It's hard to persuade the damn ghost. She and Jiang Li didn't have a very good relationship to begin with.

If it weren't for her good attitude in the carriage today and the fact that we were all women, she wouldn't even bother to remind her of these few words.

Now that I have done my best to be benevolent, I still don't want to meddle in others' affairs and cause trouble for myself.

Jiang Li, Lan Yu, and the maid who knocked over the teacup went to the guest room in the backyard of the palace.

When the maid arrived at the door, she stopped and said, "Then, princess, please go in and change clothes. The slave girl will be guarding the door for you."

Jiang Li glanced at her and nodded with a smile, "Then you have to be careful and don't let others break in."

After saying that, she took Lan Yu into the house and closed the door.

As soon as she entered the door, Jiang Li smelled a vague fragrance in the room. She glanced at the incense burner on the table not far away, and calmly slowed down her breathing.

Lan Yu handed the clothes to Jiang Li, "Princess, you go behind the screen to change first. There is only one person guarding the slave girl outside. I'm not worried, so you might as well go outside and watch."

However, Jiang Li smiled and said, "This dress is too complicated. I don't know how to wear it by myself. I think it would be better for you to come over and help me."

Lan Yu hesitated for a moment, but probably because she was afraid that Jiang Li would find something wrong, she finally gritted her teeth and nodded, "Well... okay then."

After saying that, she couldn't help but glance at the incense burner, feeling a little anxious.

But... that's all, if she could faint along with her, she might be able to remove it more cleanly.

Thinking about it, Lan Yu took the clothes and followed Jiang Li to the back of the screen.

She reached out and was about to take off her clothes for Jiang Li, but Jiang Li suddenly stopped her movement with his hand.

"Don't worry..." She smiled, looked at Lan Yu and said slowly, "Speaking of which, you have been by my side since I entered the palace three years ago."

"After all this time, have I done anything wrong to you?"

Lan Yu's heart thumped, and she vaguely felt that something was not quite right. She subconsciously took half a step back, "How could the princess ask like this?"

"Of course you always treat your slaves very well."

Jiang Li smiled and nodded, "Well, that means I have nothing to apologize for?"

When Lan Yu saw Jiang Li smiling, she felt inexplicably more frightened and took another half step back uncontrollably.

As a result, she hit the wall behind her. With this stagger, the suppressed fear in her heart reached its peak.

The next moment she couldn't help but knelt down directly, "Princess, I don't know why you ask this. I have always been loyal to you! Did you misunderstand something?"

Jiang Li still had that smile on her face. After hearing this, she raised her hand and pushed the window next to her, but as expected, she couldn't push it open.

"Are you loyal? Then tell me that the room was lit with incense and the windows were nailed shut... Why did you go to such lengths to put me in this situation?"

Lan Yu's eyes widened in horror, "I don't know what you are talking about!"

"Can't the window be opened? Then go out and ask this slave what's going on!"

As she said that, she suddenly got up from the ground and ran towards the door, as if she was afraid that Jiang Li would suddenly attack.

There are five steps, four steps, three steps...

Lan Yu's eyes shone with desire, and she was about to leave the room!

However, the next moment, she only felt a chill in her heart!

A sharp stinging pain came from his heart, Lan Yu's footsteps paused, and her pupils dilated in disbelief... Plop!

The moment she fell to the ground, Lan Yu struggled to turn around, and the last thing she saw was Jiang Li, who was still standing by the window, slowly putting down his right hand and looking at her expressionlessly.

Lan Yu never thought that Jiang Li would be so cruel and decisive that he would kill her on the spot!

This was actually Jiang Li's first murder, but... at this moment, seeing Lan Yu lying there lifeless, she felt very calm.

Killing someone... didn't seem to be as difficult as she thought.

Looking at the blood slowly flowing under Lan Yu's body, Jiang Li smiled silently, "I'm sorry... I've kept you alive for so long, it's time to go offline."

After saying that, the effect of the drug took effect, and Jiang Li suddenly felt dizzy.

Staggering, she stood firm with her hands on the table. Then she rolled up her sleeves, took out the dagger she carried with her, and stabbed her arm hard without hesitation!

The pain came and instantly made Jiang Li's mind clear up.

Then she casually tore off a piece of cloth from another set of clothes and carefully bandaged her arm to ensure that no blood would spill out.

After doing this, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from far and near outside. Then she sat down gracefully on the chair, leaned her upper body on the table as if she was fainting, and moved the crossbow tied to her right wrist. Revealed on purpose.

The next moment, the door opened.

"Hiss! What...what's going on?"

The voice that spoke was that of a woman. She was obviously shocked when she saw Lan Yu dying at the door.

But soon someone noticed Jiang Li's deliberately exposed crossbow, "Did...she killed Lan Yu?"

"It seems that she was exposed. Lan Yu wanted to leave, so she killed him with a crossbow before falling unconscious."

"What now?"

"Nothing to do, just stick to the original plan."

"Anyway, it was Jiang Li who killed Lan Yu, and the body was left here. Later, it can be said that she deliberately killed someone to silence her... the crime is aggravated!"

"Hurry, take off his and Jiang Li's clothes and throw them on the bed!"
