Guide to Failing as a Full-Level Green Tea-Chapter 100 - The Tall Eunuch
A cold voice came from outside the carriage, “Crown Princess, the driver ran away.”
Xu Shiyi stood in the grove, surveying the bloody scene around him, unable to suppress a frown.
Shen Roujia recognized the voice of the tall eunuch. She knew this person was arranged by Xu Zening, and he spoke respectfully.
“What’s the situation now?”
Xu Shiyi frowned, “A young lady is clinging to the wheel, she’s still breathing.”
Without hesitation, Shen Roujia lifted the carriage curtain.
Xiao Fu hurriedly said, “Crown Princess, you mustn’t!”
Shen Roujia looked out and saw dozens of black-clad men lying across the grove, their bodies staining the ground red.
Xu Shiyi calmly said, “They might have provoked someone they shouldn’t have.”
Shen Roujia noticed the unconscious young girl and furrowed her brows.
“Bring her into the carriage. We’re going back to the Shen residence.”
Xiao Fu protested, “Crown Princess, we can’t bring an unknown girl back. What if...”
Shen Roujia understood that Xiao Fu was worried about the girl’s enemies causing trouble for them.
She waved her hand dismissively. “This isn’t the time for that. A life is at stake.”

Shen Roujia signaled Xu Shiyi with a glance. “What are you standing there for? Save her.”
Xu Shiyi frowned tightly, also feeling it was unwise, and glanced at Xiao Fu.
Seeing neither of them move, Shen Roujia was about to act herself when Xu Shiyi finally lifted the girl.
They checked the black-clad men and found no identifying items on them. Each had been killed with a single strike.
Shen Roujia furrowed her brows.
She pondered over what she had seen during the ride back.
Upon returning, she settled the girl and instructed Xu Shiyi, “Go find my brother. Tell him everything you saw and take him back to investigate.”
Xu Shiyi hesitated, looking at the unconscious girl whose breathing was weak. He let his guard down, nodded, and left.
Xiao Fu watched Xu Shiyi leave.
“I’ve never seen such a tall eunuch.”
Shen Roujia couldn’t help but laugh. “Silly girl, he’s clearly not a eunuch. He’s likely one of His Highness’s spies.”
Xiao Fu gasped and covered her mouth, afraid Xu Shiyi might hear, “I didn’t think of that.”
Shen Roujia waved her hand. “Go get a doctor.”
Shen Roujia then walked towards the girl without another word.
Xiao Fu followed her orders immediately, leaving Shen Roujia and the girl alone in the room.
The girl seemed younger than Shen Roujia, which wouldn’t raise suspicion.
However, Shen Roujia gazed intently at the seemingly harmless girl, her lips tightly pressed.
With a faint, mocking smile, she spoke coldly, “They’re all gone.”
There was no response.
Shen Roujia continued, “You killed those men. I saw the calluses on your left hand. The direction of the knife wounds matches someone who uses their left hand.”
“I’ve heard that experts can conceal their presence. Stop pretending.”
The girl’s eyelids twitched slightly as she silently looked at Shen Roujia.
“You have sharp eyes, young lady.”
Shen Roujia stared calmly at the girl, who wore a wicked smile. Her gaze suggested that in the next second, she might place a cold blade against Shen Roujia’s throat.
