The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

"Miss, be careful!!!"

The moment Shu Yu discovered the assassin, he was so scared that he rushed to Shen Qinglan with his arms open to block the attack for Shen Qinglan!

"Pfft."

The sound of the knife entering the flesh was heard!

Shen Qinglan saw that the long sword had pierced an inch into Shuyu's arm and then stopped!

The assassin's chest was pierced by a sharp sword! Blood stained the assassin's clothes.

As the sword was pulled out, the assassin's eyes widened, and he fell to the ground in disbelief, without a breath.

When the assassin fell to the ground, Shuwen's cold face happened to appear.

"Are you okay?"

Shuwen looked at Shen Qinglan, then at Shuyu.

Shuyu covered her wound, her face pale with fear.

Shen Qinglan quickly pulled Shuyu to sit down, frowned, and bandaged her while saying:

"It's so dangerous, why are you rushing to do it? When did you become so brave?"

"Shuyu is not afraid! Shuyu's life is worthless, not more noble than the young lady's!"

Shu Yu shook her head and gave Shen Qinglan a bright smile.

Shen Qinglan felt like something hit his heart.

Thinking of the scene in her previous life where Shuyu died for her, that scene overlapped with what happened just now, and she couldn't help but have tears in her eyes, and said seriously:

"Your life is equally important! Do you understand?"

Shu Yu looked at Shen Qinglan's red eyes, feeling a little flustered, and hurriedly comforted her:

"Don't cry, Miss. I'm fine, aren't I? Shuyu has thick skin and strong flesh. I'm really fine. Didn't Shuwen come just in time?"

After Shen Qinglan bandaged Shuyu's wound, he sighed, patted Shuyu's head, and then looked at Shuwen who was examining the corpse.

"Who is it?"

Shu Wen took out a waist badge from the corpse and said with a gloomy face:

"It's the Shadow Pavilion."

"Shadow Pavilion?"

Shen Qinglan narrowed his eyes, thought of the rules of the Shadow Pavilion, sneered and said:

"It seems that the Fourth Prince can't sit still anymore."

Shu Wen frowned when he heard this, and couldn't help but say:

"But this Shadow Pavilion has always been a fight to the death. This assassin is probably just a sign of the way. I'm afraid that more assassins will come soon..."

Although Shuwen is very skilled, one punch cannot defeat four hands!

If there were more assassins, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to protect Shen Qinglan!

Upon hearing this, Shen Qinglan looked at Shuwen and said with a soothing smile:

"Although the Shadow Pavilion claims to fight to the death, they don't really like to die in vain..."

"What do you mean, miss?"

After hearing what Shen Qinglan said, Shuwen guessed that Shen Qinglan probably had a plan, and couldn't help but look at Shen Qinglan curiously.

"Let them come! If one comes, I'll kill one. If two come, I'll kill two! Kill them until they get scared! They'll be terrified and won't dare to come anymore!"

Shen Qinglan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

"But the people in Shadow Pavilion are elusive. I'm afraid..."

"It doesn't matter. They appear and disappear mysteriously, so I am more mysterious than them!"

Shen Qinglan said this without further explanation and directly instructed Shuwen:

"Go and dispatch personnel first to strengthen the defense, especially to the old princess and the young masters and ladies, and provide increased protection."

Shen Qinglan was about to leave when Shuwen saw her and asked, "Where are you going, Miss?"

"Looking for Lu Huaizhu..."

When Shen Qinglan knocked on Lu Huaizhu's door, Lu Huaizhu was still yawning. He looked at Shen Qinglan with a tired face and said:

"Shen Qinglan, do you want to behave like a human being? You let me be a teacher to a few brats during the day, and you don't let me sleep well at night?"

"Cousin, I need your help with something." Shen Qinglan smiled at Lu Huaizhu and directly stated his purpose.

But Lu Huaizhu rolled his eyes and cursed:

"No, no, no, don't call me cousin. Nothing good will happen if you call me cousin! You are my brother, okay? I want to sleep!"

Having said that, Lu Huaizhu was about to push Shen Qinglan away, close the door and go back home.

Shen Qinglan did not stop him, but just said calmly:

"If my aunt knew that my cousin did not save my biological cousin, she would probably beat you to death, right?"

Lu Huaizhu paused as he was about to close the door. He looked up at Shen Qinglan and gritted his teeth.

Finally, facing Shen Qinglan's harmless face, he sighed helplessly, opened the door with resentment, turned his back and walked into the room, and sat down on the chair.

Then he poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, crossed his legs, propped up his chin, and said irritably:

"Fart!"

Shen Qinglan didn't care about Lu Huaizhu's attitude. She walked in and sat opposite him, smiling:

"My cousin is good at the art of the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams. I need my cousin to help me set up the Zhan Palace into a killing formation."

Lu Huaizhu paused while drinking tea, looked at Shen Qinglan suspiciously, looked her up and down, and then said seriously:

"what happens?"

Shen Qinglan did not hide anything and told them that the Fourth Prince had hired people from Shadow Pavilion to assassinate her.

Hearing this, Lu Huaizhu frowned and said:

"The assassins of Shadow Pavilion have never been defeated. What kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into?"

"Just because there was no such thing before doesn't mean there is no such thing now. Since they dare to accept the Fourth Prince's order, I will let them know what it means to come but not return."

Seeing that Shen Qinglan had a plan in mind, Lu Huaizhu was worried, but he said helplessly:

"How did you get into such a big trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qinglan shook his head seriously and said, "It is a trouble, but also an opportunity."

Shadow Pavilion...

She had only heard of it before, but had never seen it. Now, she wanted to meet it...

Lu Huaizhu did not delay any further. Since the situation was urgent and the other party had already sent out killers who had not returned yet, the second batch of killers would surely arrive within an hour!

They must speed up and set up the formation as quickly as possible within this hour!

Fortunately, Lu Huaizhu had been in the Prince Zhan's Mansion for many days and was very familiar with the terrain of the Mansion. He immediately led his men to start working.

Shen Qinglan also followed along, occasionally putting forward his own opinions.

Although she had also learned the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation, she only knew the basics and could not compare with Lu Huaizhu.

But her advantage is that she has a sharp brain and some of the opinions she expresses can give Lu Huaizhu more inspiration.

In a short while, the formation was set up.

Lu Huaizhu was very satisfied and put his hands on his waist, and said to Shen Qinglan beside him proudly:

"Just wait! I have set up an ambush formation from all sides. They will never be able to get out!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qinglan smiled and gave Lu Huaizhu a thumbs up.

"My cousin is very talented."

At this time, it was already the Chou hour.

After being notified by Shen Qinglan, the old princess and others did not dare to run around, for fear of implicating Shen Qinglan.

For fear of distracting manpower, the old princess called several children to her yard.

The old princess was pacing around the room anxiously, and said to Aunt Gui:

"Are you really alright? Or should I go to the palace to find His Majesty? This is the imperial city! Even if it's a killer, how dare he be so arrogant?"

Nanny Gui is just a servant, how could she dare to say anything at this time?

Instead, Huo Junyan spoke to the old princess to comfort her:

"Grandma, don't worry. Mother told us not to run around, so she obviously has an idea in mind."

Huo Junyu also nodded his head. Although he felt a little sleepy, he still said seriously:

"Yes, mother is amazing! Moreover, Yu'er has learned archery from the teacher these days, and her archery skills have improved. If there are really bad guys, Yu'er will protect grandma."

"Yier, ah... Yier, protect her too." Huo Jingyi was already very sleepy. She was held in Nanny Gui's arms and answered in a daze.

The old princess looked at the calmness of the children and couldn't help but feel amused and relieved.

Under Shen Qinglan's education, the children became more and more well-behaved.

Even Yuer, who used to be the most mischievous, now looks like a little man.

Then there is Huo Junyan, who is more steady and confident than before, and looks like a true young master from an aristocratic family, with a demeanor that is hard to compare to others.

And Yier has already learned to read account books at such a young age, which is also rare.

Thinking of this, the old princess could only pray silently as she looked outside the dark courtyard.

Hope everything goes smoothly...
