Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 263 There Is A Grandmother Who Has Been Bedridden For Years (Part [-])
The old lady entered Ji's house.

The person waiting behind the door was Ziqiu, and the old lady followed for a while hesitantly, before finally asking, "Girl...how is it?"

Ziqiu lowered his head, and shook his head slightly towards the old lady, "They all went to look for the girl in Gucuo, but they haven't returned yet." After finishing speaking, he sighed softly and thought to himself, the girl's move was really cruel. , Look how frightened the old man is.

But Ziqiu knew that his daughter was really angry.

If it was just Ji Wuyan who was being targeted and designed, she would never have reached this point, she would probably just turn around and leave, and afterwards reason that she had always arranged for the ancient house to follow her for protection, and it passed.After all, the old lady is old, so it is not worth the loss for Ji Wuyan to startle the old lady because of You Lingxi.

But... They absolutely shouldn't have touched her people.

At that time, he sneaked back from the west of the city, and was about to send someone to inform the old lady who had just recovered from her shock, when she saw Cen Yan come back dripping with blood on one arm, and Chen Luoxin was also covered in scratches, and her clothes were all torn. , with a pale face, and trembling lips, he told the ins and outs of the incident.

Mountain climbing is real, and premeditated murder... is real too.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, and when it was halfway up the mountain, Shen Luoxin actually had no strength left, so she proposed to find a pavilion to rest her feet.The back mountain is better than those mountain ranges in the west of the city that don't even have a name. There are many people coming and going on weekdays, and many small pavilions for people to rest have been repaired along the way.

Unexpectedly, not long after entering the small pavilion, Lu Jiangjiang asked to "take a step to talk". Although he felt that he had no friendship with Lu Jiangjiang, and there was no need to "take a step to talk", but along the way, it is undeniable that Lu Jiangjiang also took care of his good friend. Many, Shen Luoxin went with him.

Who knows, he actually said that he likes...

After all, Shen Luoxin is not a young lady who doesn't leave her home and doesn't go out of her way. She won't be at a loss when she confesses her love, and she won't be confused about how true or false her liking is.Not to mention that he and Lu Jiangjiang have no intersection, and the number of times we have met can be counted on one hand, but when he said "like", his eyes still couldn't hide the disgust.

Really... I have wronged him.

Suspicions arose at that time.

Shen Luoxin pulled a little distance away calmly, and then expressed her gratitude in a very official and direct manner, "Marriage is an order of parents and a matchmaker's words. "Yunyun...

In short, even Shen Luoxin secretly admired herself after she finished her verbal remarks.

But obviously, Young Master Lu didn't admire it. He probably felt that it was embarrassing to be rejected by a woman whom he even detested painstakingly. He couldn't continue acting immediately, and his complexion suddenly changed and he hurried away... Shen Luoxin breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly patted his chest.

That's when the accident happened.

No one paid attention to the man in black who was approaching from nowhere, he walked straight towards Shen Luoxin, the long sword in his hand hurt his eyes in the sunlight, Shen Luoxin only had time to sideways to avoid it, but he couldn't. Opening the steep hillside behind the pavilion, she jumped over the pavilion's low railing and fell straight down... Fortunately, Cen Yan's eyes fell on Shen Luoxin from the beginning to the end. Just rushed over and grabbed Shen Luoxin.

In the end, both of them fell off the cliff together.

When Ji Wuyan heard this, he became angry immediately.He even drove out Bai Xing, who brought the doctor with him, without seeing anyone, and closed the door tightly, ready to disturb the muddy waters of Yanjing City.

In the east and west of the city, both of them were in danger, and they were pushed down from the mountainside like this, coincidence?Obviously impossible!It was really a clumsy serial assassination scheme, and I didn't even want to use my brain to change the method.I don't know whether to say they are too confident or too stupid?
The Lu family wanted to enter the Eastern Palace camp, and Shen Luoxin was probably their signature.

From this point of view, the prince and You Lingxi have reached a consensus on how to deal with him. Li Yuqi knows that there are masters around him, but he doesn't know how many masters there are. He obviously underestimated a lot, thinking that separating himself from Shen Luoxin would be enough Killed both of them without warning.

"I heard... something happened to the girl of the Shen family?" The old lady probably sensed that something was wrong, and asked in a trembling voice.

Ziqiu nodded, offered the teacup, thought for a while, and finally said in relief, "Don't worry, the two girls are good people, and they will surely save the day... Maybe you go back to sleep, wake up, the two The girls have all returned safely."

The old lady couldn't believe this kind of "good thing" no matter what, she just thought that this maid was looking for good words to comfort herself.

Obviously I trusted You Lingxi, but in fact, everyone in the Ji family, even a concierge, could stand up and complain about herself, but no... They were nervous and anxious, but none of them showed any negative emotions such as resentment.

Even, he comforted himself a lot.

The old lady thought of You Lingxi who was left on the mountainside by herself in the end, and thought about what kind of attitude she would have if she were her servant, what kind of attitude would she have?

Comparing the two sides, it becomes more and more obvious that this master is different, and the servants brought out are also very different.

The old lady blamed herself more and more, holding a teacup and asking Ziqiu, "Wuyan told me before that all the elders are there, and there is also a brother who does some small business, I don't know... write a letter here, How long will it take at the earliest? It is also possible to follow the official path."

Ordinary people cannot follow the official path, and even ministers cannot follow the official path unless it is an urgent letter.But the Ning family was a bit unfriendly in front of His Majesty, "Old lady, I will go to the palace to ask His Majesty, and I can send it tonight at the earliest... It is my fault that she disappeared. I will write a letter myself, girl, send it out for me." ,how?"

Um?Ziqiu was dumbfounded, looking at the old lady, he felt his liver and gallbladder trembling...Girl, you didn't imagine this situation in advance!Slaves...Slaves should or should not?
It shouldn't be, but how can we persuade Mrs. Ning to give up without showing off?
If so... Once the news is sent back to Jiangnan, the whole of Yunzhou will rush out to Yanjing City... Things may get out of control...

She was in a dilemma here, but the old lady didn't know why, seeing her pursed her lips and said nothing, she called again, "Girl?"

"Yes, yes..." Ziqiu struggled with the corners of his mouth, trying to think of a way out, while hesitating and procrastinating, "It's like this, old madam... the girl didn't explain it to you before... this , That... She has a grandmother who is sick in bed... Yes! The old grandmother, who has been bedridden for many years! What if, what if the news comes back..."
