That's right!

This dagger was indeed Ling Jingshu's.

When the bandits forced her to leave, she put this dagger against her neck. But why is this dagger in the chest of the bandit?

Ling Ji's mind was in turmoil, staring at the bloodstained dagger, as if he had seen a ghost.

Wang Tong looked at Ling Ji's dumbfounded stupidity, pulled the corners of his lips and said, "You heard it right, and you didn't think about it wrong." This bandit leader died at the hands of that kind and delicate Miss Ling Jiu. The situation was critical just now, and the leader of the bandits who held her hostage had already been injured, and if he caught him again, he was afraid that he would have to catch Miss Ling Jiu's back before he died. Miss Ling Jiu was quite decisive, and rushed to kill him first. ”

After a pause, he said, "This kind of thing should not be publicized, otherwise it will damage Miss Ling Jiu's reputation." On the side of the guards of the East Palace, I will order me to go down and keep it secret. As for the guards of your mansion and the boatmen on the ship, it is up to the prince to come forward. ”

As he spoke, he shoved the dagger into Ling Ji's hand.

Ling Ji lowered his head and looked at the dagger, only to feel that his hand was heavy, and his heart was even heavier.

If it weren't for the sake of saving everyone's lives, Ling Jingshu would not have resolutely stepped forward. Knowing that the road ahead was dangerous, he still took the initiative to leave with the bandits.

If Ling Jingshu really has three longs and two shorts, what face do the Ling family's people have to go back to the Ling family's old mansion again, and what face do they have to face everyone in the fifth room?

Ling Jingshu was also forced to kill someone. It is admirable that such a weak female streamer is so shrewd and decisive. It made him, a dignified seven-foot man, ashamed.

This kind of thing must not be spread!

Once it spreads, not only will the Ling family's face be damaged, but Ling Jingshu will become an outlier in the eyes of others

Ling Ji quickly made up his mind, took a deep breath and responded, "Thank you Commander Wang for reminding me." I know what to do. ”

"Daddy. The eldest brother and Ah Xiao both went to the boat board, and there was no movement outside to kill. Are we safe? Ling Jingyan, who had been crying for a long time, was already hoarse, trembling and squeezing out a few words.

Uncle Ling listened attentively for a while, and said uncertainly: "There is indeed no unusual movement outside, and those bandits should all be beheaded." ”

Sun's voice was also a little hoarse: "Come on, light the candlestick first." ”

The frightened maids who were paralyzed on the ground finally reacted. Struggling to stand up. Groped his way and lit the candlestick.

There was finally light in the cabin.

Jiang Shi's face suddenly changed, and he said tremblingly: "There are footsteps outside. ”

And all the faces changed.

The footsteps were not heavy, and they were soon outside the door. The door was snapped open.

Ling Jingyan had already closed her eyes and screamed. Uncle Ling and Sun's faces turned white.

"Don't be afraid. It's me and Ah Xiao. "The two who appeared at the door were indeed Ling Jingshu's sister and brother. Ling Jingshu's voice was a little tired.

The crowd breathed a long sigh of relief.

Ling Jingyan, who was still screaming, immediately stopped talking, and quickly got up and rushed over without knowing where she got the strength. hugged Ling Jingshu and cried: "Cousin Shu, fortunately you came back safe and sound." Just now when you were walking with the bandits. I'm so scared, I don't dare to say sorry for you to stay."

Uncle Ling and Sun both felt guilty in their hearts, glanced at each other, and silently twisted their heads to the side.

Just now they watched Ling Jingshu leave with the bandits. No one dared to say anything. Now that I think about it, I was too cowardly and timid

"Cousin Yan, you don't have to blame yourself."

Ling Jingshu's soft and calm voice came into everyone's ears: "That was the situation at that time. It's a blessing to be able to save the life of the big guy. Besides, they came for me. If I don't take the initiative to follow them. They will never let me go. ”

"Uncle and aunt are silent, they must be trying to preserve their strength and secretly waiting for an opportunity to save me back. How can I not know this piece of painstaking work. ”

Uncle Ling and Sun's faces were a little hot, knowing that this was Ling Jingshu's thoughtful excuse to excuse them

What a reasonable and empathetic girl!

Uncle Ling cleared his throat and said, "Ashu, you have worked hard this time, you must have been frightened a lot. Come in and talk. ”

"Yes, Ashu, come in quickly." Sun also changed his words, and he was very intimate.

There was some bitterness in Ling Jingshu's voice: "I have a lot of blood splashed on my body, I'm afraid it will scare you." I'll go back and change into clean clothes before I come back and talk. ”

It wasn't until this moment that Ling Jingyan smelled the bloody breath on Ling Jingshu's body.

In normal times, Ling Jingyan's legs were weak when she was scared.

However, there are so many dangers to be experienced today. At this time, everyone is safe and sound, which is already a blessing from heaven. Who cares about this little detail.

Ling Jingyan dragged Ling Jingshu into the room, and said, "What are you afraid of with some bloodstains, as long as the big guys are safe." ”

That being said. When she arrived at the light, she saw the mottled blood stains on Ling Jingshu's dress, Ling Jingyan was still startled, and blurted out: "Ashu, where did you get so many blood stains on your body?" ”

It's like the blood of a close-quarters kill

Ling Jingyan was startled by the fleeting thought in her mind, and hurriedly waved this terrible thought away, self-righteously finding a reasonable explanation: "I know." It must have been the people who came to the rescue who killed the bandits who held you hostage, and you got so close that blood splattered on you. ”

Ling Jingshu was silent, allowing Ling Jingyan and the others to misunderstand.

Yes, no one would have thought that she killed that bandit with her own hands!

Even she never imagined that she would have the courage to kill someone.

At such a critical juncture, the body's reaction is even faster than the brain.

The feeling of killing people is not wonderful, and it is even somewhat disgusting. She doesn't regret it, though. If it were to happen all over again, she would do the same.

The only thing that made her anxious was that there were too many people present. I can't hide this at all. The Ling family will soon know the truth, but they are afraid that they will see her as an outlier.

In the future, if it is publicized, it will be difficult for her to gain a foothold in the capital.

This is Ling Jingshu's real concern.

Jiang opened his mouth and asked, "Ashu, who saved us today?" ”

Ling Jingshu's mind swept over the handsome and indifferent face of the young man in Xuanyi: "It was the imperial grandson who led the guards of the East Palace to the rescue. ”

The emperor's grandson?

Jiang Shi was stunned at first, and then quickly breathed a sigh of relief: "It turned out to be His Royal Highness Taisun." ”

According to the blood relationship, she and the imperial grandson are cousins and brothers who have not come out of five suits. However, the other party's status is noble, and she will not call her cousin casually.

Uncle Ling perked up and immediately said, "You each go back to your room, freshen up and change your clothes, and when the day comes, I will lead you to thank you." (To be continued.) )
