"and many more."

Not sure who was in front of her, Jiang Yunluo motioned to Su Manman to walk more lightly.

The two looked at each other and tiptoed forward. Only then did they see a girl in a pink dress lying on her knees behind a rockery, her shoulders shrugging as she cried.

Perhaps he was afraid that the loud voice would attract the servants, so he made such a suppressed voice.

"It should be Xia Yuge."

Thinking of Ling Fengshuo sending someone to pick up Xia Yanchen's sister, Jiang Yunluo said softly.

She is not loud.

But I didn't expect that the ears of the person who was immersed in sadness were very pointed, and he suddenly raised his head like a frightened little animal!

"who!"

Her almond-shaped eyes were round and she looked in the direction of the two of them in horror.

After seeing the two women, he suddenly relaxed, but his eyes were still wary of strangers.

Su Manman patted Jiang Yunluo's arm, took half a step forward, and smiled at her.

"Are you Xia Yuge?"

Her appearance was not as beautiful and aggressive as Jiang Yunluo's, and there was a softness all over her body. Xia Yuge nodded, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yunluo, who was standing behind Su Manman.

After looking at him several times, he said softly: "Are you... my brother's friends?"

"Yes."

Su Manman handed her her handkerchief.

Xia Yuge stretched out his hand to take it, thinking of what Xia Wenbo had done that he couldn't accept after hearing it just now, and how it was Ling Fengshuo who brought the family to help his father catch the real murderer. He couldn't help but feel sad again and burst into tears. It fell down like threaded beads.

Su Manman looked a little unbearable, and looked at Jiang Yunluo, not knowing how to comfort her for a moment.

Xia Yuge, however, stood up a little embarrassed, sobbing and bowed to the two of them.

"Thank you two sisters. I'm fine now. Please don't tell my brother what happened just now. I... don't want him to worry."

"it is good."

Su Manman responded softly, feeling a little helpless.

It is precisely because of what Xia Wenbo did that even the phrase "sorrow and resignation" sounds a bit out of place now.

"Thank you."

Xia Yuge thanked him again, then turned and ran away.

Su Manman watched her run away and finally sighed.

"This Miss Xia seems to have a simple mind and is not deeply involved in the world. The incident involving the Xia family leader must have had a great impact on her."

"Human beings grow up through blows."

Jiang Yunluo pulled Su Manman around and took one last look in Xia Yuge's direction.

"But with Xia Yanchen's protection, she shouldn't have any big problems."

"That's right. From what I heard about Young Master Xia's attitude towards Miss Xia, she should be very kind to her sister..."

The two of them walked back along the original path while chatting.

But I didn’t expect that when I got close to the front hall——

Suddenly there was a loud noise from the direction of the door!

It seems like someone is breaking down the door!

"what happened?"

Jiang Yunluo paused and hurried over with Su Manman.

As soon as they arrived in the front yard, they saw a group of servants standing there helplessly, staring at the smashed door with panic on their faces.

Fortunately, the door is thick and has three heavy bolts.

Otherwise, based on the strength outside, I'm afraid it would have been knocked to pieces by now!

"what's the situation?"

Jiang Yunluo rushed to a handyman.

The other party looked haggard, and when she questioned him, he seemed to suddenly come back to his senses, and explained with a sad face: "Princess, my master...it seems that my master's affairs have been spread! Now there are people everywhere who have bought soldiers from the Xia family. The people who use the blade...some are making trouble...and some want their money refunded..."

Jiang Yunluo looked stern and glared at the door.

How could it be so fast?

Who spread the word?

It is obviously meaningless to pursue these issues now.

But she had asked Fu Bo last night.

According to Uncle Fu, in addition to receiving custom orders from martial arts sects, the Xia family will also open weapons shops everywhere for civilians.

Even if it is the swords and guns used by the juggling troupe, the Xia family makes them better than the others.

Or if someone wants to keep some self-defense weapons at home in case of emergencies, they will come to Xia's shop to buy them.

But how could these weapons be sacrificed with human beings?

In that case, even arresting all the children in Tianshui City would not be enough!

But the angry people will not pay attention to this.

Bloody and cruel rumors like "Human Sacrifice Sword" spread. From then on, even if it was just a needle, as long as it was heard that it was made by the Xia family, I would probably be thrown away.

"Bang!!"

People outside have started banging on the door!

There is a timid maid in the courtyard who has begun to shed tears.

Jiang Yunluo looked at the farce in front of her and felt furious in her heart. She just wanted to grab Xia Wenbo from the coffin!

After drugging Ling Fengshuo and leaving behind a pair of innocent children and a group of domestic servants, he was dead!

half an hour-

"Manman, I'm going out for a while and I'll be back soon."

Jiang Yunluo couldn't bear it anymore and ran towards the side door without looking back.

A quarter of an hour later——

"What are you doing!! Get out of the way!!"

A sharp shout suddenly came from outside the door!

Everyone in the courtyard and Su Manman, who was waiting nervously for Jiang Yunluo's return, were all shocked.

Then the noisy sounds outside gradually subsided until it was completely quiet.

Jiang Yunluo's voice also sounded.

"Open the door."

The servants looked at me and I looked at you, and they all ran over.

As soon as the door opened, everyone's expressions froze.

I saw that outside the originally grand gate, it was now a mess.

Countless leaves, mud, eggs and other things were all stuck on the door, mixed with countless footprints.

There were also several pools of liquid with a strange smell on the ground at the door.

"This……"

Su Manman didn't expect such a scene outside, and was stunned for a moment.

Jiang Yunluo also had a look of helplessness on her face and said to several servants on the side: "Clean this place up as quickly as possible."

"Yes."

Several servants quickly ran to retrieve the tools.

Jiang Yunluo turned around again——

Before he could speak, Mr. Zhong said with a smile: "My subordinates have neglected their duties. I thought that no one would dare to make a mistake once again, but I didn't expect..."

He glanced awkwardly at Xia Mansion, which had lost its grandeur, and lowered his body even further.

"Princess, don't worry. Before the Xia family is sealed off, I will definitely send someone to guard the door. No one will disturb the prince's purity."

"Well, do as you say."

Jiang Yunluo didn't say anything more and took Su Manman away.

After walking some distance, Su Manman whispered: "The Xia family is going to be sealed off?"

"Ah."

Jiang Yunluo nodded: "After such a big incident, it is impossible to turn over the story easily. Even if Ling Fengshuo can save it, do you think he can?"

Su Manman shook her head.

Then he added: "Although I don't know much about Young Master Xia, I feel that even if King Shuo wants to protect him, he may not be willing."

Jiang Yunluo chuckled upon hearing this.

"So they are friends."
