The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

A strong heartbeat came from the tight chest.

Xue Mingyue came back to her senses, and the tight string in her heart gradually relaxed.

She pursed her lower lip, curled up her fingers that were hanging by her side, and slowly clenched them into fists. In the end, she still didn't hug him back, and coughed slightly: "Master Marquis, I'm fine, you can let go of me." ”

Xie Lang: "But I was scared. I want to take it easy."

"..."

How can you scare me with the posture of one arrow and one snake?

Xue Mingyue was just thinking about how to stop him from pushing too far in front of so many people when she heard someone next to her suddenly shout, "Your Highness the Sixth Prince——" She turned her head and saw the guards all kneeling down towards her.

And the person they were facing was... Yu'er?

The guard knelt down and apologized: "I failed to protect you well, please punish me, Your Highness."

Xiao Yu was also a little frightened. He turned around and looked at Xue Mingyue and Xie Lang. After a while, he said: "You are not to blame for this. On the contrary, you have served as a guard. I will definitely explain it to my father when I get back."

Xue Mingyue's forehead jumped suddenly.

This little guy is actually the sixth prince? ?

Thinking of the guards following him and the details she had ignored, it suddenly dawned on her that the little guard following him when she met him on the street seemed to be a chamberlain.

"Before the hunt, His Majesty warned the Sixth Highness that the dangers in the mountains would prevent His Highness from entering the mountains without permission. Although the danger has been saved, we know that no more accidents will happen. It would be better for Your Highness to return to the camp as soon as possible."

Xie Lang's voice sounded deep.

His thin lips were slightly pursed, with sharp lip lines, and his eyebrows were full of indifference and alienation, and he said: "If something happens to His Highness in the forest, everyone present will be punished by Your Majesty. Your Highness doesn't want to see this kind of situation, right?"

Xiao Yu knew he was in the wrong and his head hung low.

After catching a glimpse of the bloody scene on the ground, his face turned pale, and he quickly raised his head and said in a low voice: "What the Marquis said was that I was not thinking carefully. I know I was wrong, so I will go back to the camp."

"Then Sister Xue..."

"I will send her back, so there is no need for Your Highness to worry."

Xie Lang didn't give him a chance to continue talking.

He glanced at the guards kneeling on the ground and asked them to take Xiao Yu back to the camp as soon as possible. Xiao Yu had no objection to this arrangement and looked at Xue Mingyue reluctantly before leaving.

Xue Mingyue's eyes were slightly complicated: "Is there anything else, Your Highness?"

Xiao Yu said coquettishly: "Sister Xue, remember to ask the little red horse to bring back the rabbits and pheasants that were hunted."

"……it is good."

After receiving the promise, he left with the guards at ease.

Xue Mingyue caught a glimpse of snake heads and corpses all over the ground. She closed her eyes in disgust and fear, and said with strength: "Since His Highness the Sixth Prince has left, we should go back, and so should you, Mr. Hou... "Protect Your Majesty.

"what!"

Before she could finish her words, she suddenly jumped into the air and gave a short scream of fright.

Xue Mingyue's heart was pounding and her eyes were wide open.

Subconsciously blurted out: "Xie Jinglan!"

"Don't be afraid, I will take you away."

Xie Lang whispered.

After that, he picked her up by the waist, lifted her feet and left the messy place, and found a clean place before putting her down.

Xie Lang looked down at her and said in an apologetic tone: "It was urgent just now. I saw the blood on the ground. Thinking that you were always happy, I took the initiative and took you out of there without asking for your permission. You are not angry, right?" ?”

Xue Mingyue opened her mouth, and after meeting his apologetic eyes, she couldn't say anything else for a while.

He did this out of care for her. It would be too petty for her to be angry.

Xue Mingyue pursed her lips, shook her head and said, "No, I would like to thank you for showing up in time, but why did you show up here?"

She looked up at him seriously.

Xie Lang originally wanted to say that he happened to be passing by, but the moment he met her light-colored eyes, he changed his mind and said: "I guessed that you would go into the mountain, and I was worried about your safety, so I asked someone to follow you. When I saw Xue Rou After I went to find you, I rushed over."

After speaking here, he paused and asked again: "Did she give you any trouble?"

Xue Mingyue didn't notice his brief pause. After seeing him tell the truth, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.

Then he shook his head and said: "No, she can't make things difficult for me. It's just that I think the appearance of the snakes is strange. We all used anti-snake and insect powder before entering the mountain. I suspect that someone is behind it, and I don't know if it's for His Highness the Sixth Prince." They came here for me."

Her beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but frown, and her lips turned slightly white.

Xie Lang's eyes were slightly cold, and the images of several people appeared in his mind. His heart suddenly filled with anger, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent, but he quickly restrained himself and suppressed the thoughts in his heart for the time being.

Looking at her dazed and pale face, he couldn't help but reach out and touch her head.

He said softly: "Don't worry, I will investigate this matter thoroughly."

"I'll send you back to the camp to rest first. I'll tell you as soon as the matter becomes clear. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, this matter will definitely not involve you."

Xue Mingyue nodded hesitantly.

Anyway, she had no intention of staying in the mountain any longer.

Xue Mingyue failed to sit on the little red horse. Instead, she couldn't resist Xie Lang and sat on the back of the white horse with him.

Xie Lang half-hugged her in his arms. Seeing that she still didn't look well, and she wasn't as arrogant as before, he had to tease her a few words.

His thin lips pursed into a line, suppressing the anger between his brows and eyes, and his eyes were cold.

...

Returning to the tent, Xue Mingyue drank two large bowls of tea before she recovered.

Liu Yun and Liu Xing were also frightened, sitting next to her with dull eyes. Liu Xing touched the goose bumps on her arms fiercely, and her voice was still trembling with fear: "Miss, who is trying to harm us? ?”

"Those are all venomous snakes!"

Xue Mingyue shook her head, she was not sure.

Ever since the incident happened, she had made a long list in her mind, but she still had no idea.

There are probably many people who dislike her, but there are only a few who can think of such a way to harm her and want to kill her, and there are also few who are capable enough to catch so many venomous snakes.

"This matter involves the Sixth Prince, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Xue Mingyue's throat was a little dry, and her voice sounded a little hoarse.

She rubbed her face with her hands, took a long while, took a deep breath and said, "Okay, Liuyun, you first sprinkle a layer of anti-snake powder inside and outside the tent, and then check everything to avoid any further accidents."

"Lidong, you continue to investigate about the horse yesterday."

"Yes, Miss/Mrs."

The three people immediately started moving.

Xue Mingyue lowered her eyelids and stared at the tips of her shoes for a long time, still feeling that she couldn't rely entirely on Xie Lang to investigate this matter.

Waiting is too anxious.

She still prefers to take the initiative.

Anyone who wants to harm her will never be far away. As long as she appears safely, she can always deceive them.

Thinking of this, Xue Mingyue stood up and walked outside the tent.
