The screams called everyone else over, and Peony quickly swept in front of Shen Ling, and shouted nervously, "County Lord, are you okay?"

Peony came out quickly, and just saw the shadow that passed in front of Shen Ling, and his eyes were cold.

"County Lord!"

"Chase!"

Shen Ling gave an order, and the people behind him immediately flew in the direction of the assassin.

By the moonlight, Shen Ling saw that Xiao Qianqian was sitting on the ground, two wounds were cut on her little face, crying pear blossoms with rain, and her eyes were full of horror.

After a while, the other ladies followed.

Seeing the situation clearly, everyone gasped.

This, this......

Xiao Qianqian was injured on the cheek, with a knife wound on the left and right, and her delicate face was extremely terrifying.

Now Xiao Qianqian is not liked by Song Linyuan, and she entered Song Linyuan's mansion with her dowry, which has become a joke in Kyoto, and now she has ruined her face, and she is afraid that she will ...... in the future

Everyone had different thoughts, and then turned their eyes to Shen Ling, but no one dared to get close.

Xiao Qianqian covered her aching face, the stickiness between her fingers and the lingering smell of blood on the tip of her nose told her what had happened now, and the hatred spread in her heart.

She wanted to see Shen Ling's jokes, but she didn't want Shen Ling and the noblewomen in Kyoto to see her jokes, and now she ruined her face.

Song Linyuan didn't like her in the first place, without this face, how could she compete with Shen Ling for Song Linyuan's liking?

Later, later......

Xiao Qianqian didn't dare to think about it anymore, but she didn't want to make Shen Ling happy, she caught a glimpse of Concubine Lan's figure, and suddenly burst into tears, "Shen Ling! Why do you want to harm me? I'm what I am now, Shen Ling, you're happy!"

"Why did the county lord say that? How did I hurt you?" Shen Ling didn't know why, "You called me back, saying that there was someone in my room and wanted to go in for me to take a look, how did it become my fault?"

"When did I say there was someone in your room?" She immediately called out, "Shen Ling, you are spewing blood!"

"Didn't you?" Shen Ling frowned slightly, and her expression was a little sad, "You kept calling me back on the way, so I thought it was because you wanted to test the danger in the room for me, but didn't you want me to go in?"

Shen Ling sighed as she spoke, turned her head away from the person sitting on the ground, covered her lips with the handkerchief in her hand, and looked weak and innocent.

Xiao Qianqian's scalp was numb, and she keenly felt that the eyes of the people around her were a little strange.

She bit her lip, tears swirling in her eyes, and shouted directly at Concubine Lan who came over, "Niang Niang Mingjian! Qianqian was just worried that Shen Ling would be weak in the middle of the night, and if she got lost in the temple, she was afraid of the cold, so she persuaded her to go back to her room early to rest."

"I don't want to, when I got to the door of the wing, Shen Ling said that there was someone in the room, and he actually pushed me in, causing me to hurt my face. The assassin also fled after Shen Ling opened the door." The more Xiao Qianqian spoke, the more pitiful she became, "Everything is Shen Ling's calculation of me, and I ask my mother to make decisions for me!"

Only then did everyone see Concubine Lan holding the handmaid's hand and walking towards them.

"See Niangniang."

For a moment, everyone knelt on the ground.

Concubine Lan walked quickly, and the maidservant behind her stepped forward with the lantern, allowing her to see Xiao Qianqian's current appearance clearly.

Concubine Lan's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly asked, "Why is this so? What just happened?"

Xiao Qianqian covered her face and knelt on the ground, bursting into tears, "Please also ask Niang Niang to make decisions for me!" Shen Ling sent someone to scratch my face, she is trying to force me to die!"

"How—How can this be?" Concubine Lan looked at Shen Ling with disbelief in her eyes, "Does the Phoenix County Lord have something to say?"

"I didn't know about the assassin before, but Lord Xiao kept persuading me to go back to the wing, so I thought it was the county lord who wanted to rest, so I invited the county lord in to rest, but I didn't expect Lord Xiao to come back not to let me rest, but that there were assassins in the room."

"You're talking nonsense!" Xiao Qianqian retorted repeatedly, "Shen Ling, who do you think of me? You dragged me into the room, and it was your people who scratched my face, and now it's all my fault? You ask for it

Ask yourself, if it weren't for you, would I have become like this?"

Of course not.

After all, the assassin in the room was to assassinate Shen Ling, and now that he has injured someone, and seeing that he has mistaken the target, he naturally will not stay anymore.

Xiao Qianqian was a disaster, but if it weren't for her, Shen Ling wouldn't have come back so soon.

It can be said that she will become what she is now, and she is completely to blame.

I wanted to see Shen Ling's jokes, but I didn't expect Shen Ling to send her in with her backhand.

A sneer flashed in Shen Ling's eyes, and she turned her head to look at Concubine Lan, "What do you think?"

Concubine Lan frowned, her eyes looked between the two of them, and finally sighed, "This matter still has to be reported to the emperor, and the emperor will decide. It's just that Lord Xiao's face must be seen by the imperial doctor, what if it has a scar."

Xiao Qianqian became more and more sad as she cried, and the people around her couldn't help but give sympathetic looks.

"Concubine Kelan, now that the emperor is not here, I have to give Lord Xiao an explanation for this matter, right?" A noble lady next to him said.

Oh, yes.

Anyway, Xiao Qianqian is the victim, if they don't give an explanation, they will be sent back to Kyoto in the future, how should they deal with themselves?

Concubine Lan pursed her lips, and then sighed helplessly, "Phoenix County Lord, this matter started because of you, and you should also be responsible for this matter, so you will ......

"Wait a minute." Shen Ling suddenly interrupted her words, "Why does Concubine Lan think that this matter is only related to me? If Lord Xiao has nothing to do with this matter, why is he urging me to go back to the wing? Don't you want to see my jokes, but this assassin was sent by Lord Xiao?"

"You're talking nonsense! What does this matter have to do with me? I—"

Before Xiao Qianqian's words were finished, she was covered by someone.

Bai Feng didn't know when he stood beside her, covered her mouth with his hand, and blocked all the voices behind her.

Concubine Lan's eyes darkened, and she looked at Shen Ling's gaze with three points of complaint, "Is the Phoenix County Lord trying to shirk responsibility? Even if Xiao Jun wants to calculate you, it shouldn't be that people scratch their faces."

She was clearly holding her accountable.

Seeing this, Bai Long immediately said, "If you go back to Niangniang, this matter really has nothing to do with the Phoenix County Lord, the Phoenix County Lord has been with Bai Feng all afternoon, and only traveled with Xiao County Lord in the evening. Bai Feng and I originally wanted to protect the two county lords, but we didn't want the county lord Xiao to let the two of us go back, so we didn't continue to protect the two county lords."

As soon as Bailong's words came out, he completely blamed Xiao Qianqian, and as Xiao Qianqian's maidservant, she didn't think about her for half a point, but helped her attract a lot of responsibility.

Why did the county lord Xiao invite the county lord of Phoenix to travel with him, and did not allow the maid to accompany him, if they really had no plans, they would definitely not believe it.
