Chapter 9: Another Assassination
"Lord Wang, why are you here?"
He Qiaoyu was teaching her to thread needles and embroidery, and as soon as she said the skills, she saw King An coming over, and immediately greeted her, completely leaving her behind.
She continued to thread the needle and thread on the silk without raising her head, looking very serious, as if she didn't know about the arrival of King An.
Wang An didn't reply, but walked straight to her side who was embroidering seriously, leaned over slightly to look at her work, squinted his eyes, and laughed inadvertently.
She actually knew that he was coming, but she didn't plan to deal with him, who knew that he also came over to make fun of her, you embroidered beautifully, you came.
"What is this embroidery, princess?"
She didn't bother to answer, He Qiaoyu was very positive, "Back to the prince, the princess embroidered mandarin ducks"
"It seems that the princess is really not talented in this area" After speaking, he grabbed her hand and pulled her up, "The princess's health is almost good, it's time to go back"
There is no need to embroider, she is naturally happy, and immediately threw down the embroidery needle, "The prince didn't say that I forgot"
Then he turned to He Qiaoyu, "Qiaoyu girl, that's all for today's study."
He Qiaoyu looked at King An, and had no choice but to say, "Since it is the king's order, how dare the slave disobey?"
An Wang nodded slightly, pulled her and walked in front of He Qiaoyu, looking at the hands of the two of them, He Qiaoyu was jealous in his heart, walked to the table and picked up Ye Fan's splendid silk silk and rolled his eyes disdainfully.
"You know how to heal, why doesn't this king know?"
In the carriage, he was always curious about her medical skills, and after asking several times in a row, she ignored it, only closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
"Are you still angry with the king about that?"
"You didn't say you wanted to buy, buy, buy, how about this king accompany you today?"
"I heard that Ling Sword Pavilion has recently obtained some good weapons, can this king take you to pick a suitable piece of self-defense?"
She remained unmoved, sitting as steady as a clock, as if she was really asleep, and as if she had made up her mind to deliberately ignore him.
The carriage suddenly jolted, and she was pressed under him, and finally opened her eyes impatiently and glared at him, but he smiled, "The princess has been angry and careful."
"The prince is in such a good mood today, why don't you compete"
The carriage jolted again, and she pressed him against the corner of the carriage for the Lord, with one hand at his side and the other on the side of his face, in an extremely intimate position.
"Lord Wang......" He Zhao outside the carriage thought that something was wrong, stopped the carriage and opened the curtain to check, but when he saw the scene of the princess pressing on the prince, his face immediately turned red, and he hurriedly lowered the curtain, coughed lightly, and asked the coachman to continue to catch the car.
He was not in a hurry to push her away, but a smile appeared in his eyes, "How long will the princess hold this king like this?" ”
"Although I don't mind contact with men, if the prince doesn't know how to converge, then don't blame me for being rude to the prince"
"Oh? The king will wait and see."
She ignored the wolf's glint in the other party's eyes, and slowly sat up straight, whether he was joking or not, as long as he crossed the line, she would not spare it!
"The prince, the princess, the Prime Minister's Mansion has arrived"
The carriage stopped, and King An answered and stepped out of the carriage first, and then turned around to help her standing in the carriage, she looked at the hand stretched out in front of her, and still got on it.
Prime Minister Ning Cheng, his wife, and a group of maids and servants were waiting outside the mansion, and as soon as they saw King An's carriage, they immediately greeted them with a smile, "King An, Princess An, the family banquet has been prepared, please"
"My father-in-law was polite."
A few polite words, and a cadre of people waited before they walked into the house one after another.
Listening to Mianyue, Ning Chu also has a sibling sister Ning Wei, and even the prime minister went out to greet him in person in such a battle today, why don't you see this mysterious sister?
At the dinner table, the prime minister and King An had a very happy conversation, and she, an "outsider", naturally couldn't interject, so she sat quietly and ate by herself, I have to say that the taste is really good!
Madame sat beside her, peeked at her several times, her eyes were full of love, she wanted to talk to her but didn't know what to say, she just helped her with vegetables.
"Thank you"
When Madame heard her thank you, her eyes immediately turned red and she almost didn't cry, but she suddenly realized that she was out of shape and covered her sleeves, "Princess, you're polite."
She thought that this lady must be very sad to lose her daughter, and when she saw her, she would think of the dead Ning Chu, and it was understandable that she would be filled with joy and sorrow.
After the family banquet, the prime minister and King An went to the study to talk about things, Mianyue took her to walk around the prime minister's house, and the maids who passed by all saluted her, and some of the bold and lively maids came up to greet her.
In their eyes, she is Ning Chu, the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she is so close to her, it must be that the second miss usually has a good relationship with them, if she alienates them, will it make them suspicious?
"Tan Yu, the second lady is now Princess An, pay attention to proportion"
Tan Yu once served Ning Chu with Mianyue for a period of time, she is good at everything, but she speaks too straight, what she says, and her behavior is not big or small, and she doesn't know how to measure.
"I said Mianyue, why haven't you changed, the princess doesn't mind, what are you talking about?"
"I" Mianyue glared at her angrily, speechless.
"Princess, Tan Yu also wants to serve you, you talk to the master about bringing Tan Yu back to King An's Mansion as well" Tan Yu grabbed her hand and pleaded.
"No, you can't!" Mianyue immediately objected.
"You don't count"
"I'm against it anyway"
"You're just afraid that I'll compete with you for favor."
"Cut, it's not"
"I used to be the princess who served with you, why can you follow the princess as a dowry maid, but I can't?"
"It's enough for the princess to have a maid to serve me, what are you here to make a fuss?"
"Maybe the princess prefers me to serve?"
Both of them immediately turned their heads to the princess, but found that the princess didn't know where she went, and she had just been patronizing and quarreling, and she actually lost the princess!
"Tanyu! It's all your fault! I'm going to find the princess."
"What are you angry about? It's not the first time the princess has come to the Prime Minister's Mansion, can she still lose it? ”
Here Ye Fanjin walked into a courtyard, different from other courtyards, the road here is very flat and leads directly to the antique hut in the bushes, and the branches and leaves on the side of the road are also neatly repaired, obviously inhabited.
But she just looked at it and left, and didn't stay long.
Continuing to wander around casually, feeling that the hour was almost over, King An and the prime minister should have finished talking, she was about to return the same way, when suddenly a flying blade swirled in the air and flew towards her, her body subconsciously dodged, but fortunately it was just a passing by.
However, the flying blade turned around and flew again, she quickly bent down, and the flying blade spun in front of her eyes and fell into the hands of the masked man who appeared out of nowhere, and the masked man who caught the flying blade immediately launched another round of attacks on her.
Not having a weapon is indeed a big problem, and in the competition with the masked man, she found that this person's skills are not ordinary, and the masked man before her is not at the same level at all, is it the killer sent by the emperor to kill her?
This person must have been with her for a long time, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to start as soon as she walked to this secluded and uninhabited place, and she didn't notice it at all!
After a few moves, she still had the upper hand, and the masked man took advantage of this opportunity to strike even more ruthlessly, and the flying blade swung straight at her neck in his hand, trying to cut off her head and end her life.
Who would have thought that the flying blade was close at hand but stopped in mid-air, King An protected her in his arms with one hand, and blocked the flying blade with the other, the masked man was startled and raised his palm to hit the person who stopped him, King An effortlessly took her back and hit the other party.
The powerful air flow formed by the collision of the two palms shook the man in black out, and he looked down at her in his arms like a nobody, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
She didn't speak, only shook her head, and when she saw the masked man fall to the ground and jump quickly up and jump out of the wall, she asked, "Don't you chase?" ”
"This king saved you, and he didn't thank you?"
"Who is it because I'm in danger?"
He smiled, very faintly but indeed smiled, "The princess is talking about it, for whom?" ”
"The prince is really a noble man who forgets things"
He didn't refute, but said, "Why did the princess come here alone?" ”
"I'm bored wandering around, but how did you know I was here?"
He hugged her even tighter, leaned closer to her face, and squinted, "What is there about the princess that I don't know?" ”
Is it necessary to tell him everything about her? It's unbelievable that she came here, and the fact that she knows how to heal was also discovered to save him, and she will never say anything else.
"Isn't the prince very capable? I don't need to say that the prince can find out."
"I hope you can tell me to this king"
"Where did the prince get the confidence to think that I would tell my past to a royal person I don't trust?"
