Wanxi was also frightened by Jing Ning's eyes, she shrank into the corner and kept silent.

"You're not necessarily right, why would she be your helper instead of replacing you?" The corners of Jing Ning's mouth hooked up a mocking smile, and he coldly dropped this sentence and leaned on the cushion to close his eyes and recuperate, not wanting to say a word to Wanxi again.

Wanxi gritted her teeth, Jing Ning's words reminded her that she went to the banquet today, and the emperor did not summon her privately, but he named Ji Qing as the monarch, and let her live in the general's mansion for a while, and anyone with a discerning eye could see what the emperor meant. At present, Xiao Rin is not in the capital, and the emperor naturally does not want to directly reward Ji Qing to Xiao Rin, so he has to keep it in the general's mansion first, and when Xiao Rin returns, the emperor can naturally let Ji Qingchang stay in the mansion.

But what about her? If there is Ji Qing, what is the meaning of her existence? Her net worth is not as good as Ji Qing, she is the secretary of the Ministry of War*, the niece of Ji Guifei, and the county lord of the emperor's own title, does the emperor really want Ji Qing to replace her? Wanxi was frightened by her thoughts, and her face suddenly turned a little whiter.

Jing Ning saw that she was no longer talking, knowing that she had successfully suppressed Wanxi, and a smile appeared on her lips, and it was so good that the world was quiet.

At this moment, the carriage suddenly shook violently, Jing Ning quickly grabbed the handrail on the side, Wanxi rushed forward, Jing Ning hurriedly stretched out her hand and grabbed her clothes belt, Wanxi didn't jump directly outside the carriage.

Jing Ning sensitively sensed that something was wrong, she saw Wanxi's mouth open, and hurriedly covered her mouth and blocked her screams.

There was a sound of swords colliding outside the carriage, Jing Ning pursed her lips, made a silent gesture to Wanxi, and looked at Wanxi nodded in panic before she withdrew her hand. She carefully lifted a slit, the coachman was already unconscious, and outside the carriage Luohua was engaged in a struggle with a masked man.

Because it was getting late, Jing Ning couldn't see clearly, and she could only see from the figure of the man that he was a burly man, but she wasn't worried, she had confidence in Luohua.

"Yes, there are assassins?" Wanxi cowered in the corner, her voice trembling slightly from fear.

"I'm afraid that the emperor thinks you are worthless, so he sent someone to clean you up."

Looking at Wanxi's panicked appearance, Jing Ning couldn't help but think of intimidating her, her voice was low, her face was serious, and she didn't look like she was telling a lie at all.

Wanxi trembled even more, and when she rolled her eyes, she was stunned by Jing Ning. Jing Ning pursed the corners of his lips, a little disdain flashed in his eyes, dare to enter the General's Mansion with this little guts?

After half a cup of tea, there were a few muffled hums outside the carriage, followed by a burst of breaking wind. Jing Ning breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the masked man was repelled by Luohua.

"Miss, are you alright?" Luohua opened the curtain of the door and looked Jing Ning up and down, and was relieved after confirming that Jing Ning was not injured.

"It's okay, let's go home first." Jing Ning waved his hand, and his calm appearance didn't look like someone who had just experienced an assassination.

After a while, several people returned to the general's mansion, and after calling the subordinates to settle the coachman and Wanxi, Jing Ning returned to his courtyard.

"Do you think that person is an assassin sent by the emperor?" Jing Ning frowned slightly, a little unsure of his guess.

If the emperor wants to get rid of himself, he should do it extremely secretively, otherwise he will offend the general's mansion and the prime minister's mansion in vain, and now that Xiao Rin is leading troops outside, if the news of his death spreads, I am afraid that the emperor may not be able to bear the consequences, so it should not be an assassin sent by the emperor, but others have no reason to do such a thing.

"It shouldn't be, Fang Cai's martial arts are not weak, but he is not very formal, compared to the well-trained palace assassins, his swordsmanship is more like a chivalrous man in the rivers and lakes, not very disciplined, but very practical and flexible enough." Luohua analyzed.

Jing Ning nodded, but she was even more confused in her heart, she thought that she had not offended the people in the rivers and lakes, who was the instigator?

"That's it, the guards in the mansion have been strengthened recently, especially the father and mother, and Xiao Yuan must pay special attention when they go out, and they must not be injured." Jing Ning said in a deep voice. She always felt that tonight's assassination was just the beginning, and now that Xiao Rin was not in the mansion, she could only protect the general's mansion for her husband and protect the relatives in the mansion.

Luohua answered and jumped out of the window. Jing Ning was a little tired on her face, and today's events made her physically and mentally exhausted. She couldn't help but miss her husband who was far away at the border, if only he was around, she didn't have to worry about these things, Xiao Rin would definitely handle these things properly.

"Xiao Rin, you must come back safely." Jing Ning sighed faintly, and then called the maid to serve him to bathe.

Early the next morning, Ji Qing moved to the General's Mansion, and Jing Ning arranged the courtyard in the southeast for her. It is next to the garden, which is very exquisite, and the most important thing is that it is far away from Jing Ning's yard, and Jing Ning also arranged that yard for her with the will of not being out of sight and out of mind.

"Sister, Qing'er has been bothered during this time, and I hope my sister doesn't care." A pleasing smile appeared on Ji Qing's delicate face.

Her attitude is so obedient, Jing Ning naturally doesn't want to embarrass her too much, Jing Ning naturally doesn't want to embarrass her, and just looking at her innocent and pure eyes, Jing Ning can't say anything mean.

But Wanxi on the side said with a sharp voice: "Qing'er, you have to abide by the rules of the mansion during the days you have come to the mansion, and don't do anything to disgrace the general's mansion." ”

Wanxi looked high, as if Ji Qing was a concubine who had just entered the mansion, although she and Jing Ning had already tacitly agreed that Ji Qing was this identity, but after all, they didn't say it on the surface.

Hearing Wanxi teach Ji Qing like this, Jing Ning's eyes flashed a little bored, not because Ji Qing was upset, but because he was simply not used to looking at Wanxi.

"I'm afraid you have a lot of things that you are not used to when you first arrive, if you are missing something, tell me." Jing Ning showed a faint smile to Ji Qing, and his attitude was neither enthusiastic nor cold, as if Ji Qing was just a guest.

"Qing'er, thank you, sister." Ji Qing smiled brightly, at first glance he was a little similar to Xiao Kite, and both of them looked like little girls who had never been in the world.

Jing Ning sighed in her heart, if Ji Qing could keep to herself, she would naturally not cause more trouble, but if she had any bad intentions, then she would not be blamed for being polite.

"You're so resting, I'll go first." Jing Ning nodded slightly to Ji Qing and turned around and left her courtyard.

Wanxi didn't leave together, but took advantage of Jing Ning's distance, and said to Ji Qing again: "Although your status is higher than mine, I entered the mansion earlier than you, and you also want to call me sister." ”
