Chapter 282 Assassinated
In the past few days, because of Jiang Yunsong's relationship and worry about the housekeeper's illness, Li Miaoyi slept very late these days.

But she had a habit of extinguishing candles late at night, but she didn't expect that this habit saved her life.

Li Miaoyi stretched her body and was getting ready to sleep. Suddenly, the tranquility was broken by a noise. She opened her eyes suddenly, but it was dark.

Tomorrow Jiang Suisui was going to take her to Zenxin Temple to burn incense. There were a lot of things to prepare. Meng Chun and Zhongxia went to pack their things and did not stay outside to watch the night. If it were the two of them, they would definitely not be so sneaky. .

She opened her eyes wide, trying to distinguish the outlines around her.

The last thing to do was panic at this time. Many self-protection strategies came to Li Miaoyi's mind. Finally, she gritted her teeth and threw the jade pendant under the pillow to the ground.

Song Yanxing gave her a jade pendant before and she put it under her pillow every day. Over time, she got used to it. Now that Song Yanxing has ascended the throne, she put the jade pendant away.

But when she couldn't reach the jade pendant, she always felt a little uncomfortable, so she randomly took a piece and put it under the pillow instead.

The crisp sound of the jade pendant breaking was particularly clear in the dark night. Li Miaoyi chirped, pretending to be asleep.

Immediately afterwards, several figures climbed through the window and appeared in the room, and a woman's voice sounded, "Miss Li, we are the ones sent to protect you."

Li Miaoyi quickly realized who they were talking about, and there was no one else but Song Yanxing.

"Thank you." Li Miaoyi quickly huddled up into a ball and clutched the quilt in her arms tightly, which would make her feel safer.

In the dark night, the moonlight shone in from the window, but it was still very dim. The two parties faced each other, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense. Suddenly, a roar came, and the two parties began a fierce battle.

A group of people rushed to the other side and attacked violently. Sparks flew, fists collided, and sharp swords flew, piercing the dark air.

Some people were pushed aside, others were chopped to the ground, and blood was spread all over the ground. The air around them became turbid and difficult to breathe, and screams and the noise of battle began to sound at the same time.

The noise was so loud that it finally woke up the servants in the yard. It gradually became brighter outside, and Li Miaoyi could clearly see the scene inside the house.

During the fight, some people were stabbed in the chest, some had their arms cut off, and some were knocked to the ground.

"Miss--"

"retreat--"

The voices were from Meng Chun and the others. Li Miaoyi breathed a sigh of relief. The other group of people had masks on their faces and couldn't see their faces clearly. They jumped down from the window and soon disappeared.

"Meng Chun and Zhong Xia come in." These two people are the people Li Miaoyi trusts the most.

She quickly put on her cloak and hurried to the woman who was protecting her. There were eight of them in total, two of them were injured, and one person was lying on the ground and she didn't know how she was doing now.

Li Miaoyi frowned slightly in worry. Zhong Xia and Meng Chun were startled when they came in. Li Miaoyi directed the two to bring people in and carry them down.

The woman in the lead nodded to Li Miaoyi, "Thank you, Miss Li."

"It's me who should thank you. If it weren't for you today, I would be in a very bad situation." Li Miaoyi looked serious, and her tone was full of gratitude to several people.

"Miss Li is ridiculous, we are just responsible." After a pause, she slowly said, "We still have important things to deal with, so we won't stay any longer. I will leave the three of them to Miss Li."

Li Miaoyi slowly said, "Be careful on the road." She nodded, and the others disappeared in a flash.

Suddenly, only Li Miaoyi and Zhong Xia were left in the room, while Meng Chun and others looked at each other at a loss.

This matter made a big fuss, and soon Jiang Suisui and Jiang Yunsong came over.

Jiang Suisui was the first to rush in. At this time, the blood stains in the room had not yet been cleaned up.

Jiang Suisui worriedly grabbed Li Miaoyi and looked him up and down, "Are you injured?"

Li Miaoyi slowly shook her head, "I'm fine, mom, just don't worry, this is the injury suffered by the person who saved me."

Jiang Suisui breathed a sigh of relief immediately, "How are they?"

Zhong Xia slowly said, "Don't worry, your life is not in danger."

From the beginning to the end, Jiang Yunsong stood quietly behind Jiang Suisui without saying a word, and she didn't know what he was thinking at this time.

Li Miaoyi knew in her heart that he rushed here in a hurry just because he was worried about her. She looked at Jiang Yunsong with a smile and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I'm fine."

Jiang Yunsong nodded silently and said nothing.

Li Miaoyi couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. She thought Jiang Yunsong would no longer be angry with her now that she was here, but she didn't expect that she still didn't want to talk to her.

Despite what Li Miaoyi said, Jiang Suisui was still worried. The mother and son chatted for a while. After Meng Chun and Zhongxia cleaned up the blood in the room, Jiang Yunsong suddenly said, "Get out -"

"Yes."

Jiang Yunsong let out a long sigh and said helplessly, "Wanwan, if the grandfather of those people today guessed correctly, they should be here for His Majesty."

Li Miaoyi didn't speak for a long time, and finally nodded. She knew what Jiang Yunsong meant.

Jiang Yunsong frowned and said earnestly, "Your Majesty will observe mourning for the late emperor for three years. Wanwan listens to her grandfather. How about I send you back to Wenyang in these three years?"

Hearing this, Li Miaoyi shook her head firmly, "Now that His Majesty has just ascended the throne, he is the only one facing so many courtiers. I don't want to leave His Majesty's side right now. Your Majesty needs me."

Jiang Yunsong pointed at Li Miaoyi angrily and said, "I think you are really stubborn. What kind of ecstasy soup did your Majesty fill you with? To make you so irrational!"

"Your Majesty has never given me any ecstasy soup. The two of us have gone through so many things. I know when he needs me the most. I have already been through it once. I don't want to leave His Majesty alone in this cannibalistic capital city again. ”

Jiang Yunsong looked at Li Miaoyi with disappointment in his eyes. Finally he shook his head and said, "Wanwan, you are so stubborn. You will definitely regret it one day in the future. Your Majesty is not a good person."

"Grandpa, let's not talk about regrets in the future. I only know that if I don't do what I want to do now, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

"If you don't leave, this cannibal Shangjing will eat your flesh and blood, just like today." Jiang Yunsong said in a serious tone.

"Grandpa, you see, I will be fine today. Your Majesty will protect me. You are still here, so what are we afraid of?"

After Jiang Yunsong heard this, he turned around and left, ignoring her.
