Chapter 42 Has Assassins

Seeing all this clearly, Mei Xiang turned pale with shock.

Ju Xiang was also exhausted and terrified.

If Zhuxiang was slower...

Zhuxiang held the feather arrow and looked in the direction of the arrow, "With this speed, the distance shouldn't be far!"

Xiao Yuzhuo was really angry this time!

Once or twice is not enough!It's not enough to cause her dysmenorrhea and infertility!

Seeing that she didn't fight back, did you think she was made of mud?He even blatantly missed her life!

In anger, she gritted her teeth and said sharply: "Go after him! I want to see who it is!"

Zhuxiang hesitated.

"Go!" Xiao Yuzhuo pointed out the window.

Zhuxiang took the order, jumped out of the window and flew away.

Ju Xiang and Mei Xiang didn't dare to be careless, cheered up, and cleaned and changed her clothes quickly.

Xiao Yuzhuo stretched out her hand and asked the two servant girls to straighten her rich and wide sleeves, put on her high-toed clogs, and was about to step out, when she suddenly heard a muffled groan outside the door.

bang.

The door was kicked open.

"There are assassins!" Mei Xiang screamed, "Protect the princess!"

The two servant girls have both stood in front of Xiao Yuzhuo.

At the door, dressed as an attendant, the unremarkable man snorted coldly, pulled out a short sword from his sleeve, and stepped forward quickly.

"There's an assassin, come here—" Mei Xiang's screams came to an abrupt end.

Because the man kicked her chest.

Her face was ashen, she clutched her chest in pain, and collapsed to the ground.

Ju Xiang was shocked, she spread her arms and stood in front of Xiao Yuzhuo.

The man kicked up.

Ju Xiang's eyes closed involuntarily.

Heard a bang, but felt no pain.

She opened her eyes in astonishment, only to see two figures fighting together like a gust of wind.

"Princess—" hurried footsteps came from the corridor.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the assassin threw out the dagger fiercely, and leaped out of the window while his fighters dodged.

The man didn't chase after him, instead he cupped his hands and knelt down towards Xiao Yuzhuo, "This subordinate's ineffective protection has frightened the Princess."

Xiao Yuzhuo squinted at him, "Who are you?"

The man said in a deep voice: "Subordinate Liao Changsheng, the general will accompany you personally."

Did Jing Yannian tell someone to follow her?She didn't notice it at all?But fortunately he made such a move, otherwise, even if she escaped and survived, she would suffer some hardships.

He told people to stare at her, but she wanted to thank him again and again?Really useless.

"Thank you, Mr. Lang, for me." Xiao Yuzhuo pursed his lips and said.

The footsteps came closer, and Liao Changsheng clapped his hands in response, and when someone outside the door was about to break in, he jumped out of the window.

"Is the Princess okay?" Xiao Shiwuniang was the one who ran first.

She was out of breath, and her little face turned pale.

The servant girls who came looking for the sound were left behind by her.

Xiao Yuzhuo smiled at her, "It's just a little frightened, it's nothing serious."

Xiao Shiwuniang heaved a sigh of relief, nodded and stepped aside silently.

The eldest princess and the wives of Xiao's family all heard about it.The majestic Princess Shouchang was assassinated in the inner courtyard of the Xiao family, is that okay?

The eldest princess was furious and ordered people to search the whole house.

"Grandmother, today is my grandmother's birthday banquet, and there are many guests coming and going, so it's not appropriate to conduct a search with great fanfare right now?" The wives of the Xiao family couldn't persuade the eldest princess, so Xiao Yuzhuo had to hang his head and hold her mother's hand , persuaded in a gentle voice.

The eldest princess's face was livid, "What they want is your life! My son!"

The sentence "my son" has a slight trill, which is full of mother's love and concern.

Xiao Yuzhuo's eyes felt damp and hot from her words for no reason. She hugged the eldest princess's arm and leaned on her shoulder, "Auntie is worried about me, I know. But today there are many guests at home, so I don't know who the thief followed. Yes. At this time, it is impossible to say that I have already escaped from the house. If I alarmed the guests, it would appear that my Xiao family is incompetent."

The wives of the Xiao family did not dare to speak out, for fear of offending the eldest princess again, but they couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

"Besides, I have asked Zhuxiang to go after him. Zhuxiang hasn't returned yet. Maybe he has caught the thief and will definitely interrogate the person behind the scenes. Don't worry too much, Aunt!" Xiao Yuzhuo acted like a baby at her, "Aniang Just trust me once!"

Seeing that she was indeed not hurt, the eldest princess could still persuade her in a warm voice with a smile on her face. The anger born of worry finally subsided a little, and she calmed down, "Don't stick around here anymore!" , how can we do without a master in the hall? Isn’t it just a joke?”

The wives of Xiao's family breathed a sigh of relief, and they looked at Xiao Yuzhuo with more compassion.

"Aniang, let's go too, the Xiao family's birthday banquet can only be done if Aniang is in charge!" Xiao Yuzhuo said with a smile, "It can only be done if Shiwuniang is with me."

The eldest princess glanced at her in surprise, then looked sideways at Xiao Shiwuniang who had been standing quietly behind everyone.

These two children have been fighting since childhood, when did the relationship become so good?

But seeing Xiao Yuzhuo's peaceful face, with a slight smile on his exquisite eyebrows, the eldest princess finally got up, the child has grown up, she should believe her.

"Aniang go first, don't delay too long."

Xiao Yuzhuo agreed with a nod and a smile.

Xiao Shiwuniang sent off with blessings.

"I see the worry in your eyes, it's not just pretending." Xiao Yuzhuo looked at Xiao Shiwuniang without anyone else, and said straight to the point.

Xiao Shiwuniang glanced at her from afar and lowered her head.
