I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

Lu Chuan said that many people were injured on the street. He saw the eight maids near the main street. There were three men in black chasing them, but he dealt with them.

He wanted to go find Jiang Yuan and Qu Ying, but Chunzhi stopped him and said that she saw the girls running in another direction, so she asked Lu Chuan to go back to the mansion first to check. Unexpectedly, the two of them actually came back first.

Xue Yangling walked around the room in a state of anxiety. Several maids were frightened and one sprained her ankle while running. Qu Ran was also frightened. Jiang Yuan asked Chunzhi to light some calming incense and asked Qu Ying and Qu Ran to rest in her room first.

Lu Chuan left Jiang's house and went to the Marquis' Mansion to report the news so as not to worry the princess, and also to take a look at the situation on the street.

In the front hall, only Xue Yangling, Jiang Huai, and Jiang Yuan were there.

"What's going on? Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar year, the day for viewing lanterns. The New Year hasn't even ended yet. Where did all these thieves come from?"

Jiang Yuan sat aside, searching her memory constantly. In her memory, it seemed that something had really happened. In her previous life, she did not go to watch the lanterns. She was still in Huangjue Temple at that time. She spent the New Year of that year in Huangjue Temple.

What happened in the capital on the fifteenth day, she happened to hear a few words from the servants in the mansion after she was brought back, but she didn't know the details.

On the fifteenth day, Jiang Wan was ill. Except for Jiang Hao who went to the brothel, no one in the Jiang family went out, so they only talked about the matter a few times.

Since it was not affected, there is naturally not much news.

Jiang Yuan didn't have a deep impression, so when Qu Ying asked her to go and enjoy the lanterns, she didn't think of it.

"A Yuan..." Jiang Huai called softly. When Jiang Yuan came to his senses, Xue Yangling was no longer in the front hall.

"Where's Brother Xue?"

"He has gone to rest. We don't know what's going on outside yet. Let him rest in the mansion. We'll talk about it tomorrow. You should go back and rest too. I'll wait for Lu Chuan here."

Jiang Yuan nodded, stood up and left.

She didn't notice that when she left, Jiang Huai was staring at her back with sadness in his eyes.

The next morning, when Qu Ying and Qu Ran got up, they saw Jiang Yuan sitting in the room in a daze. The two sisters sat up from the bed and stretched lazily.

"A Yuan, your calming incense is really good. After such a big shock yesterday, Shu'er and I were able to sleep so soundly."

Yicui came in and helped Qu Ran dress. She insisted on going to the yard to sit on the swing. Breakfast would have to wait for a while anyway, so Yicui took her to the yard to play.

Qu Ying sat next to Jiang Yuan, looked at her and smiled, "What are you laughing at? Just ask if you have anything you want to ask." Jiang Yuan said softly, holding the teacup.

Qu Ying glanced in the direction of the courtyard, leaned forward, and whispered, "Are you the kind of hidden master that people in the martial arts world only hear of but never see?"

Jiang Yuan almost spit out a mouthful of tea and looked at Qu Ying with some disgust, "No." He answered coldly. My God, what is her train of thought?

Qu Ying squinted her eyes and curled her lips in disbelief, "Well, I know that all of you masters have to hide your identities. Do you have any enemies in the martial arts world that prevent you from revealing your identities?"

Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes.

"Hey, I was just kidding. Do you think I'll have any problems? I knew you were quite skilled. At the fire scene, you kicked away the fallen wood with one kick.

From that time on, you are a fairy in my eyes, and everything about fairies is normal."

Jiang Yuan was a little amused and confused. She didn't know whether to say that Qu Ying was smart or that she was naive.

“Besides, you taught me Baguazhang. My teacher said that the palm technique was fierce and must have been created by a master. I knew you were no ordinary person.

But I am still shocked by your killing speed, it's amazing." Qu Ying gave her a thumbs up.

Jiang Yuan sighed in her heart, fortunately she had not concealed the fact that she knew Kung Fu from the beginning, and she also subtly let Qu Ying and even the people in the Marquis' Mansion know about her skills.

The two girls were quite receptive to it, and the maids also accepted it very naturally, so I finally put my mind at ease.

When Jiang Yuan was in a daze, Qu Ying suddenly held his hands. She held them tightly, stared into Jiang Yuan's eyes seriously and said, "A Yuan, you are my friend. No matter what you do, I will stand by you."

"Really? Being a spy for an enemy country?"

Her hand was released, and Qu Ying glared at her, "I need to think about this."

"Considering what?"

"Consider how to send you to the authorities."

"I was just teasing you."

After breakfast, just as they were about to send the sisters back to the Marquis' Mansion, Lu Chuan came. They met at the gate and then turned back and went into the front hall.

Zhishu took Qu Ran by the hand and took her to play somewhere else.

"How is it?" Xue Yangling asked impatiently. Before Lu Chuan could answer, he patted his chest and said in fear, "Fortunately, my sisters are not in Beijing, otherwise they would definitely go to enjoy the lanterns."

Lu Chuan was exhausted, and had been trying to get information from last night to this morning. "The casualties among the people were huge, especially on the main street. According to the government statistics this morning, 57 people died and more than 200 were injured.

The city's medical clinics were also requisitioned by the government, and we haven't had time to rest until now.

"Those men in black..." Lu Chuan sighed and said dejectedly, "We didn't catch any of them, and when the bailiffs arrived, they were no match for them.

Later, the imperial guards arrived and brought the situation under control. Thirteen county yamen runners were killed and many were injured.

I heard from the brothers of the Imperial Guards that when the men in black saw the Imperial Guards, they retreated, and those who didn’t escape all committed suicide by taking poison, and not a single one was captured alive.”

"It seems that they came prepared." Jiang Huai said quietly. The atmosphere in the room was depressing and a sense of crisis arose spontaneously.

It was gloomy outside, and snow began to fall from the sky. It was snowing again after the New Year. Jiang Yuan stood by the window, watching the heavy snow falling from the sky, and sighed, "There is so much snow in the capital."

Sitting in the carriage back to the Marquis' Mansion, Jiang Yuan hugged Qu Ran. She leaned obediently in Jiang Yuan's arms, very quiet.

Qu Ying finally began to feel anxious. She was frightened last night, but she slept well this morning and didn't think too much, so her mental state was pretty good. But now after hearing what Lu Chuan said, she began to get scared.

"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"A Yuan, I didn't expect so many people would die yesterday. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid the two of us would have been in great danger.

What do you think the purpose of those men in black is? Are they trying to capture someone, or..."

Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and replied to Qu Ying, "I don't think they arrested anyone on purpose. They just hurt people indiscriminately. I think they just wanted to cause panic.

I was originally planning to move back to Jiang's house, but I won't go back for now. If Master Wu's private school is still open, I will pick you up every day."

Qu Ying nodded in agreement. She didn't trust many of the guards now, but she trusted Jiang Yuan.
