Chapter 13: The Flower Thief
In the past, Shen Yanxi didn't take the assassination to heart at all, but now, ......
He looked up in Jiang Yu's direction.
After dinner, Shen Yanxi followed Jiang Yu back to her courtyard.
When she arrived at the door, Jiang Yu stopped and looked back at Shen Yanxi, her eyes were as clear as autumn water, and a faint smile appeared on her fair cheeks.
A silent goodbye.
Shen Yanxi said: "Miss Jiang hasn't invited this king in to drink a sip of tea yet. β
Jiang Yu said: "The house is simple, it's not that I don't invite, but there is really no tea worthy of the identity of the prince." β
She grabbed the front hooves of the little rabbit in her arms and waved it: "Goodbye, prince, go back and rest early~"
Shen Yanxi bowed slightly, and there was silence like a night breeze in his eyes.
The angular face and slender neck are like an abyssal whirlpool. With an extreme appeal.
Jiang Yu swallowed her saliva, and the tiny Adam's apple rolled around her white neck. Turned around and entered the courtyard.
Recently, Jiang Yu has slept very well, almost falling asleep upside down, and dreamless until dawn all night.
In the middle of the night, the door was carefully pushed open.
There was a sound in his ears, and Jiang Yu was still immersed in a high-quality sleep at first.
Gradually, a strong smell of blood spread in the room.
With a bang, the sound of a heavy object hitting the corner of the table sounded, and Jiang Yu opened her eyes in the darkness.
It's hard to see at night when you're not lit, and the other senses are especially good at the moment.
Jiang Yu determined the direction of the person who came by the sound, and a faint black shadow swayed by the window.
She didn't move, thinking about the identity of the person who came, who could it be who could break into the boudoir at night?
It was not very peaceful when I came into the city, and it was very likely that he was a flower thief. was injured by the guards and then fumbled and hid here.
Soon, the footsteps outside were getting louder and denser.
"This is Miss Jiang's boudoir, who dares to go in and search!" A group of secret guards at the gate of the courtyard were standing and looking at each other.
"But if you don't go in to investigate, we can't afford to wait for Miss Jiang if something happens." A dark guard looked like he was about to cry.
"So, so. Let's inform Lord Qiang first, and tell the thieves that they are coming this way. β
As soon as the words fell, a stern voice sounded behind him: "Why don't you act?" β
Everyone turned their heads with a snort: "Lord Qiang, this is Miss Jiang's boudoir." alarmed her, wouldn't she have to be skinned by the prince. β
Qiang said in his heart, who said it wasn't, but even so, in order to ensure safety, it still had to be investigated.
So he calmly pointed to a secret guard: "You, it's you." Go knock on the door. β
The secret guard who was pointed out wanted to kneel down for him at that time: "Qiang Da ......"
"Less nonsense, go quickly. How many heads do you have when you delay things? β
The secret guard resigned himself to his fate and stepped forward and knocked on Jiang Yu's door.
Inside the house, Jiang Yu was still quietly looking at the flower thief.
The boldness has been picked up in the back house of the prefect's mansion, tsk, the courage is commendable.
The figure was still groping for a place in the room where to hide someone, and suddenly turned around. looked at Jiang Yu's bed.
"Miss Jiang, have you slept? There are thieves in the house, so let's go in and investigate? β
The sound outside the door was like a thief's talisman.
The sound outside the house is like this, Jiang Yu can't say anything about pretending to be asleep again.
She pretended to be woken up and turned over. The next second, his mouth was tightened by the flower thief.
"Hmm-" Jiang Yu struggled slightly. The smell of blood was heavier, filling her nostrils. This man's injuries are not light.
A clear voice whispered in his ears, "Don't make a sound, it's me!" β
Jiang Yu's eyes widened, who is it?
Do they know each other? Does this person know Jiang Xiaoyu?
No way! Did Jiang Xiaoyu cheat before?
The thief seemed confident that she could tell who he was by listening to the voice, and continued, "Take them away, my dear." β
Jiang Yu nodded her head, and seeing that she was not struggling, the thief slowly let go of the hand covering her mouth.
"You let me go, I'll go out and let them go." Jiang Yu whispered to the thief.
The thief let go of the hand that was holding her body, and dodged behind the bed.
Jiang Yu raised her sleeves and wiped her covered mouth while walking out.
The voice outside the door was still ringing: "Miss Jiang? Why is there no movement, nothing will happen, right? β
Jiang Yu opened the door directly and yawned: "Is there something wrong?" β
Qiang Ji looked at Jiang Yu who was wearing underwear and immediately covered his eyes, and by the way, he also hit the secret guard who was watching directly.
It's really terrible, Miss Jiang at close range is even more beautiful.
The Dark Guards covered their eyes.
Qiang said: "There were thieves in the house just now, and they have been stabbed by us, and they are coming in this direction, so they shouldn't be able to run far." Miss Jiang didn't notice anything unusual, did she? β
Jiang Yu thought about the thief and looked like she knew her, could it be that she really had a tryst with her? Who could it be?
She said, "I've been sleeping, and I haven't heard any sound." Go look elsewhere and don't delay, Qiang guards, you have to catch the thief as soon as possible. β
Qiang said: "Okay, okay, Miss, you're fine." We immediately went elsewhere to investigate. β
Qiang Ji waved his hand: "Gone, a bunch of waste." β
On the path of the house, another team of secret guards came from a distance: "Lord Qiang, I haven't found it over there." β
"Heyβweird, you can't get away with it." Qiang groped his chin: "Keep searching." β
Inside Jiang Yu's room.
The thief was already sitting at the table, shedding his blood-stained garment.
Jiang Yu took out a candle and lit it and placed it on the table. The dim candlelight reflected on the man's mask-uncovered face.
This river fish is very good at choosing. This face is pure white and flawless, and his facial features are handsome. looks a few years older than Jiang Yu.
"You're hurt, do you need me to help you deal with it?" Jiang Yu looked at the large blood stains on his arms and waist and abdomen.
I secretly thought in my heart, this little face is so miserable and white, it should be half of the credit for excessive blood loss.
"I'm tired." The thief's breath was dying.
Jiang Yu found a pair of scissors and thought back to how others had treated her wounds before.
First, the tip of the knife is placed on the fire and roasted, and then the cloth around the bleeding part of the waist and abdomen is cut.
The man held his injured arm in one hand and leaned back against the table panting: "Can you treat the wound on your arm first?" β
"I can't." Jiang Yu said undoubtedly, and accidentally cut the hole in her waist and abdomen wide.
Most of the man's abdomen was exposed, and the bleeding position on the waist was already blurred with flesh and blood.
Jiang Yu looked at the plump muscles in her abdomen and reached out to cover it. This person is usually very strict with himself, and he exercises well.
"Sister Jiang." Jiang Yu's wrist was grabbed. The man looked at Jiang Yu with a puzzled expression.
Sister Jiang? Oh, is that what you usually call a concubine?
But then the man's words completely subverted the cognition that Jiang Yu had just established.
"Don't mention the second brother's return to the house this time, remember?"
βοΌοΌοΌβ
After several turns, Jiang Yu's brain spun rapidly. The person who called the second brother in Jiang Xiaoyu's mansion was not Wang Funa's son who was studying abroad.
"Dangchangβ" Jiang Yu threw the scissors in her hand onto the table.
"You can handle it yourself, I'm sleepy." With that, he turned and walked to the bed.
She was not afraid to put a big man in the room, if he dared to do anything wrong. With the martial arts moves in his memory, he can easily take him down.
Jiang Yu quickly got into the quilt and found a comfortable position: "Leave quickly after packing up." β
Jiang Chengqi still had to inch in and said: "Sister Jiang, is there any medicine for trouble?" β
"No, I'm asleep, don't make a sound."
Jiang Chengqi was helpless, he could feel that Jiang Xiaoyu tonight was very different from his previous personality.
Shaking his head and sighing, it seems that the house is not peaceful during their study trips, I'm afraid they were stimulated by something.
Jiang Cheng untied the sachet on his waist and grabbed some herbs sprinkled on the wound on his waist. The muscles on the head bulged out from the pain.
Then he picked up the scissors on the table and continued to treat the wound on his arm.
A tear slipped silently from the corner of Jiang Chengqi's eye. The candlelight reflected his lonely figure, and he said silently: "Mother......"
It was bright and Jiang Yu stretched her waist and got out of bed.
The people in the house were gone, and all the blood was cleaned up, as if nothing had happened last night.
Jiang Yu picked out her clothes, dressed neatly, and when she walked out of the room, she saw Qiang standing in the courtyard.
"Lord Qiang so early?"
Qiang said: "The prince has something, and he will rush back to the capital after sending you back yesterday." Miss Jiang, don't worry, I will follow you throughout the whole process to protect you. He has already ordered the whole city to go down to find the thief who broke into the palace that night. β
Oh, and the thieves are gone when they break in at night.
Jiang Yu said: "It's hard to be the prince, and you have to take care of the family and the hospital for us when you live here." β
Qiang Ji looked at her expression and speculated: "Miss Jiang, don't be unhappy, our master really has something urgent to deal with." Will definitely be back as soon as possible."
"Miss, don't worry, you are all a family in our hearts." After saying that, he seemed to feel that he had said something wrong, and quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Family? Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows.
Jiang Yu thought about Jiang Chengqi last night and asked, "How is Mrs. Wang's matter?" β
"It's a pity to fall into the water, of course."
"It's also strange, what did you say she went to the lake at night?" It's okay now, no one knows if you fall. β
"Ah, miss. I heard that a new dim sum shop has opened in the west of the city, and it is very delicious. I told them to buy some in the afternoon. You taste it. β
"There is a rich family in the east of the city, and the old man has no children under his knees, and today he is asking for a son-in-law......"
Qiang Ji seemed to have seized the opportunity to speak, and chattered vigorously.
On weekdays, following Shen Yanxi's majestic ice face, he was about to be stared at by death before he said a word.
Now Jiang Yu is completely gossip, and she is happy to relieve her boredom.
Qiang Ji talked endlessly, and she didn't need to respond.
In the end, it was a secret guard who appeared to report to him that he stopped, and his expression immediately became solemn
"What? This group of people turned against the sky. Large-scale shop grabbing. Go and write a letter to the prince and send it. β
As soon as the secret guard received the order, he turned around and was called back by Qiang Ji: "Hey, hey, no need, it is estimated that the prince will come back after sending this letter." β
