Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 58
Xuanyuan Jue helped Xie Wanqing untie the acupuncture points again, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't make a sound, I'm afraid someone will find it later!"

Xie Wanqing asked, "Are you injured?"

Xuanyuan Jue nodded, and Xie Wanqing hurriedly helped him to sit on a chair beside him.

"Why are you at my house?" Xie Wanqing asked.

Xuanyuan Jue glanced at her and said, "Help me stop the bleeding first!"

Xie Wanqing curled her lips secretly, thinking to herself, this person is really out of touch, breaking into her boudoir in the middle of the night and ordering her around.

Although she owes him favors, isn't that too abrupt?Isn't he afraid of ruining her boudoir reputation?
Although he kept muttering in his heart, Xie Wanqing still went to get the hemostatic medicine and gold sore medicine to help him treat the wound on his waist.

"How about...shall I call the girl to come in and help you?" Xie Wanqing saw that his waist was injured, and he had to stop the bleeding and bandage it, and his waist might be exposed, men and women can't bear to kiss each other!

Xuanyuan Jue shook his head and said, "Don't disturb anyone, this king will leave soon!"

"But..." Xie Wanqing held the medicine and gauze, not knowing what to do.

Xuanyuan Jue narrowed his eyes and said, "Hurry up, do you want me to bleed to death?"

Xie Wanqing resolutely cut open his shirt with scissors, revealing the bloody hole, he should have tapped the big hole beforehand, otherwise with such a deep wound, he might have passed out due to excessive blood loss.

Xie Wanqing was shocked when she saw it, she was trembling even after cleaning the wound.

It took a while to help him get the medicine, and from the beginning to the end, Xuanyuan Jue didn't make a sound, as if this was not his body at all.

Xie Wanqing didn't stop until it was time to bandage his wound, because it was too embarrassing for her to hug Xuanyuan Jue because of bandaging his waist.

"Why did you stop?" Xuanyuan Jue asked with a frown.

Xie Wanqing pursed her lips and said, "My lord, this...I..."

"Don't dawdle, I don't have much time!" Xuanyuan Jue directly grabbed her hand and said.

Xie Wanqing broke free as if she had been scalded, and bit the bullet to help Xuanyuan Jue bandage the wound.

Layers of white gauze were wrapped around her waist, and his chin touched her forehead from time to time. The breath that belonged to him lingered in her nostrils, making her so nervous that she hardly dared to breathe loudly.

Xuanyuan Jue may not be so indifferent, Xie Wanqing just got up from the bed, but she was wearing a thin coat, her hair was loose behind her, soft and smooth, brushing his face from time to time, there was a faint fragrance flow.

For the first time, my heartbeat was a little out of rhythm...

Xie Wanqing's nose was dripping with sweat, it wasn't hot, but nervous!
After finally bandaging the wound, she straightened up, but she didn't expect to see Xuanyuan Jue's deep eyes shining with a strange light.

Xie Wanqing only felt her heart twitch twice, and the rhythm became chaotic, she hurriedly looked away, and took a big step back, as if there was fire around him!

"Are you afraid of me?" Xuanyuan Jue frowned slightly, his tone imperceptibly displeased.

Xie Wanqing hurriedly shook her head, then lowered her head, and said with concentration: "No, I'm just afraid of offending the prince!"

"You dare to punish Zhaohui, why are you afraid of offending me?" Xuanyuan Jue had a teasing look in his eyes.

Xie Wanqing's eyes wandered, and she said with some embarrassment: "My daughter is only out of self-protection, and she didn't intend to target the princess. Please be enlightened by the lord!"

"Oh, it's okay, you can do whatever you want!" Xuanyuan Jue said very lightly, with a touch of connivance.

Xie Wanqing could only feel a slight tremor in her heart when she heard it, she quickly regained her composure, told herself not to be overwhelmed, and replied respectfully and politely: "I dare not!"

Xuanyuan Jue moved his mouth and finally said nothing, just said: "I'm sorry to trouble you today, I don't want anyone else to know, understand?"

"Yes, please remember!" Xie Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Xuanyuan Jue planned to leave.

She was terrified in her heart, if someone found out that there was an unexpected visitor in her boudoir, then she would lose her reputation!

Xuanyuan Jue got up and was about to go out the window, but turned back.

"My lord?" Xie Wanqing didn't understand what else was going on with him.

Xuanyuan Jue pointed to the outside and said, "Someone is coming, do you have a hiding place?"

Xie Wanqing panicked, but quickly calmed down again. There was almost no hiding place in her boudoir, except on the bed.

If someone insisted on breaking in, she might not be able to protect other places except the embroidery bed.

Xie Wanqing hurriedly pointed to the bed, and said, "My wronged prince, lie down under the quilt first!"

Xuanyuan Jue glanced at her, then hid in without hesitation, Xie Wanqing gritted her teeth, and followed into bed.

Although the bed is very big, if you want to hide a seven-foot man like Xuanyuan Jue well, Xie Wanqing has to get very close to him. Their bodies touch each other, and the scorching temperature almost makes Xie Wanqing feel uncomfortable. I was too ashamed to open my eyes.

Xuanyuan Jue didn't feel any better either, the girl's body, soft and slender, nestled in his arms, almost as if embedded in his body.

The fragrance kept lingering in his nostrils, and he needed a lot of energy to stay sane and awake, but his breathing gradually deepened, and his body became stiff.

Xie Wanqing was so nervous that she was sweating, but at this moment she couldn't allow her to think too much, let alone regret it.

There was a knock on the door of the yard, and it seemed that many people had come.

The woman guarding the door seemed to be dozing off. Hearing this sound, she got impatient and got up yawning, and shouted, "Who is it, what are you knocking on in the middle of the night? I'm not afraid of disturbing the eldest lady!"

"Open the door!" Xie Chongguang's voice came from outside.

The woman guarding the gate shivered, didn't dare to say anything, opened the door hastily, and before she had time to salute, Xie Chongguang asked with a straight face: "Has anyone entered this yard?"

The mother-in-law didn't dare to hesitate, she hurriedly knelt down and replied: "As for Master Xiang, no one has ever been here, but the slaves have been watching!"

"Really?" Xie Chongguang asked again.

The mother-in-law shook her head and said, "The servants dare not expire the prime minister!"

Xie Chongguang then turned his head to the leader of the forbidden army who was in charge of the search and said: "Master Lu, this is my little girl's yard. I don't think the assassins will come here. Let's look elsewhere, shall we?"

But Lu Xiao shook his head and said: "Mr. Xie, if it's something else, the lower officials can naturally accommodate, but this is an assassin from the East Palace, and the lower officials are also acting under the order of the prince. I'm afraid we can't be sloppy, so let's go in and search Bar!"

"This...is it inconvenient for my little girl?" Xie Chongguang was also unwilling to let these men enter Xie Wanqing's yard in the middle of the night to search randomly, which would damage Xie Wanqing's reputation.

Lu Xiao frowned, and said: "Then what should we do according to Prime Minister Xie's intention? If the assassin is hiding here, it would be even more inappropriate for Miss Xie, right?"

Xie Chongguang pursed his lips and said, "How about this, I'll ask some servants to go in and search for Mr. Lu. After all, men and women can't kiss each other. It's really unreasonable for you to break into the little girl's courtyard in the middle of the night!"

"This..." Lu Xiao also hesitated for a moment. He also considered that Xie Wanqing was the future princess after all, so he couldn't really clash.

Seeing him like this, Xie Chongguang added: "The little girl has a special identity, so the crown prince will not blame the lord. If the assassin is really inside, how dare our Xie family hide it? Don't you even believe the truth?"

"Forget it, then thank you, I will wait outside the courtyard!" Lu Xiao waved his hand, and led his team back a few meters, but ordered people to surround Xie Wanqing's courtyard. Anyone get away.

Xie Chongguang didn't stop him either, he just ordered someone to find Mrs. Liu. He thought Mrs. Liu was the most suitable person to go in and check.

Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Liu came here in a hurry, with a touch of excitement, hoping to find something weird from Xie Wanqing's house.

But facing Xie Chongguang, she still looked worried, and asked gently: "Master Xiang, why are you here in the middle of the night?"

"Take a few wives in to see if there is anyone hiding in this courtyard. The East Palace has entered the assassin, and Mr. Lu chased it here overnight, claiming that he disappeared from our residence!" Xie Chongguang said.

Liu Shi raised her brows slightly when she heard this, and thought to herself, if she got the news earlier, she could really take advantage of it.

It's a pity that time is tight and there is no time to arrange it. If Xie Wanqing is unlucky and is really hidden by an assassin, then God will help her!
Liu Shi nodded and said: "Master Xiang, don't worry, I know what to do!"

Mrs. Liu brought her own people into Xie Wanqing's yard, and pretended to call out: "Wan'er, are you awake?"

Xie Wanqing naturally wouldn't pretend to be asleep, and said: "It's so noisy, I can't even sleep if I want to, what happened outside?"

"Assassins have entered the East Palace, and now they are searching everywhere. They said they lost their traces in our house. Your father brought people to search, and they happened to come to you. You can't let those officers and soldiers in, so you have to order me to come in. Do you think there is something wrong?" What's wrong?"

Liu Shi pretended to ask, but she was thinking in her heart how to use this matter to drag Xie Wanqing into trouble.

Although it was too late to arrange people, it was possible to make some noise to let those officers and soldiers break in.

If the news that a group of men broke into the boudoir in the middle of the night spread, Xie Wanqing's innocence would be lost!

Liu Yuejiao's eyes turned, and she thought it was her heart, but she deliberately said: "Wan'er, you don't have to get up, I'll order someone to go to the yard to look around, in case there's really some youngster hiding there!"

"Okay, I'm sorry, Auntie!" Xie Wanqing responded, as long as Liu Yuejiao didn't allow anyone to enter her boudoir, it would be fine.

Liu Yuejiao whispered to the old mother next to her, "Mother Liu, wait a moment..."

After hearing this, Liu Ma nodded again and again, showing a few sinister smiles, nodded to Liu Yuejiao, and then ordered people to search elsewhere.

After making a fuss for a while, Su Wen and Lingshu also got up, put on proper clothes, ran out, and asked, "Aunt Liu, why is there so much trouble in the middle of the night?"

"It's none of your business, so just stay put. The Prime Minister came to investigate the assassin, so don't stop him!" Liu Yuejiao said solemnly, as if she was an official who gave orders.

Su Wen and Lingshu looked at each other, and silently stood outside Xie Wanqing's boudoir. They knew better than anyone else that no matter what happened, their first task was to protect their young lady.
