The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!
Chapter 9 Did he do it on purpose?
Before Jiang Zhiyue could say anything, Changying came over with a pale face, "Miss, are you okay? I was really scared to death just now."
Jiang Zhiyue shook his head calmly, took two steps back, and put some distance between himself and Lu Qingxiao.
It was this distance that allowed Jiang Zhiyue to see the scene blocked by Lu Qingxiao. The assassin's death was really unbearable to watch.
At a glance, Jiang Zhiyue's heart trembled. She lowered her head and thanked Lu Qingxiao in a low voice: "Thank you, General, for saving me."
Lu Qingxiao was a little surprised to see that she was so scared that she didn't dare to look at him for even a second, but she still forced herself to bow and thank him.
The rumors that the Duke of England's youngest daughter had a spoiled and unruly temper had reached the ears of a man who had never minded other people's business. But now it seemed that was not entirely true.
But it's just a child's temper.
"Wubing? Xiao Achan? Why are you two together?"
A hearty male voice was heard. Jiang Zhiyue looked in the direction of the voice, her hair flying as she glanced sideways. This scene fell into Lu Qingxiao's eyes.
It was he who pulled out her hairpin.
Jiang Zhiyue didn't look at Lu Qingxiao, but bowed to the visitor and said, "Your Highness, your servant greets you."
The visitor was none other than King Xuan Ying Shuo. When he returned to his palace from the outskirts of the city, he unexpectedly saw his cousin and his younger sister-in-law gathered in front of his palace, as well as a mess of horse-drawn carriages.
The cousin King Xuan mentioned is Lu Qingxiao. His mother is the elder sister of the current emperor, Princess Boyang, whose courtesy name is Wubing.
"Why call me Prince? Call me brother-in-law." Prince Xuan dismounted his horse and walked over quickly. He found the body on the carriage of the Duke's Mansion and was shocked: "Why is there a body here?"
Looking at Jiang Zhiyue again, he realized that his sister-in-law's face was pale and her hair was disheveled, so he hurriedly asked, "Is Xiao Achan okay?"
"It's nothing. I also want to thank the Major General for saving me." Jiang Zhiyue said.
Lu Qingxiao's expression was still stern, his eyes fell on Jiang Zhiyue's scattered black hair, his eyes tightened: "I'll compensate you for your hairpin."
Jiang Zhiyue was stunned for a moment, then said, "No need, the Major General is here to save me, so there is no need for you to spend any money."
King Xuan listened to the whole thing and took a closer look. He found that the weapon that killed the corpse was actually a hairpin?!
King Xuan's expression suddenly became a little strange.
With Wubing's skills, it would be fine if he didn't carry a weapon with him, but how could he do such a thing as pulling out a little girl's hairpin?
Did he do it on purpose?
Could it be that Wubing also thinks that little Achan is willful and willful and bullies little girls?
Before King Xuan could figure out what was going on, he heard the voice of his princess. When he turned around, he saw her already in front of him.
"Zhiyue, are you okay?!"
Jiang Lingyun received a note from her grandmother yesterday, saying that someone was coming to deliver something very important today, so she specially sent the palace's steward to go and greet him in person.
I didn't expect that the person who came was Achan, and I didn't expect that the manager sent someone to pass on the message that someone was trying to assassinate Achan at the door!
Jiang Lingyun didn't care about the things at hand. She lifted her skirt and hurried to the gate of the palace.
As expected, there was a chaotic scene in front of the palace. Little Achan was standing between King Xuan and Lu Qingxiao. She was frail and petite, with messy hair and one side of her hair was loose!
Jiang Lingyun's heart was suddenly stabbed. Little Achan had been spoiled since she was a child, and was treated with pity in every way, and her skin had never been broken.
When has he ever looked so pitiful?
Jiang Lingyun didn't care that she was still angry with her sister. She walked up to her in two steps and looked her up and down, fearing that she was injured.
When Jiang Zhiyue saw his elder sister again in person, he felt as if he had been in another world.
Jiang Lingyun pulled her sister over to look at it, but she didn't say a word.
When she looked up, her sister looked at her with a forbearing and timid look, her eyes were red.
Jiang Lingyun had never seen her sister like this before. She panicked even though she was usually calm and composed. She kept asking, "Achan? Achan, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Jiang Zhiyue heard the elder sister's concerned voice, and all kinds of emotions surged into his heart.
One of them couldn't hold back any longer, her little mouth pouted, and she threw herself into her sister's arms and sobbed softly.
Jiang Lingyun softened her heart and was reluctant to be angry with her sister anymore, so she coaxed her in a soft voice.
Lu Qingxiao said nothing and calmly blocked the bloody scene. After all, she was still a little girl, how could she not be afraid when seeing blood.
Fortunately, Jiang Zhiyue didn't lose his composure for too long and calmed down after a while.
Jiang Lingyun picked up a handkerchief to wipe her sister's tears and noticed Lu Qingxiao standing beside her, looking cold and imposing.
"Thank you, Major General, for saving my sister. The Duke's Mansion will definitely come to express our gratitude."
Jiang Lingyun knew on the way here that Lu Qingxiao had saved her sister, and it was only right for her as an older sister to thank him.
Lu Qingxiao remained calm, glanced at Jiang Zhiyue, and said, "Princess, you are too polite. This is just routine business. You don't need to thank me."
Zhang He happened to be leading his team over there. He swiftly carried away the assassin's body. He even turned back and pretended to be on patrol, and glanced at Jiang Zhiyue.
Jiang Zhiyue raised her eyes and happened to meet Lu Qingxiao's. She was slightly stunned, and then they both looked away.
"I still have official business to attend to, so I'll leave first." Lu Qingxiao nodded to everyone and left with the people from the Huben Camp.
Jiang Lingyun brought her sister into the palace, and King Xuan followed closely behind.
The steward took the initiative to stay and ordered people to pack up the carriage. It would be bad to let the Sixth Miss sit in a carriage stained with blood.
Jiang Zhiyue held the box in her hand all the way. Seeing her being so cautious, Jiang Lingyun couldn't help but be curious: "What treasure is it that you are so reluctant to let go of for even a moment?"
Jiang Zhiyue pursed her lips, she felt angry.
But when I was with my elder sister, all these emotions faded a lot.
Hearing her elder sister's question, Jiang Zhiyue whispered, "This is something my grandmother asked me to give to my elder sister."
Jiang Lingyun suddenly recalled what the stingy man in front of her had done, and immediately let go of the hand that was originally holding with her sister.
He said coldly, "Don't you think I'm an outsider now?"
Jiang Zhiyue pouted a little. The little girl looked a little aggrieved, but she did not say anything to defend herself.
Just as Changying said, this little beauty is as delicate as a lotus, and her every frown and smile can touch people's hearts.
Besides, Jiang Zhiyue had just been frightened, and there was still shock in her eyes. A little tear in her eyes was enough to make people feel pity for her.
Chang Ying saw that the young lady didn't seem to be really angry, so he lowered his eyes slightly and exclaimed in a low voice: "Miss, why is there blood on your sleeve? Were you injured just now?!"
As soon as Changying said this, Jiang Lingyun immediately turned around and grabbed her sister's wrist to check it, looking extremely nervous and concerned.
Jiang Zhiyue looked at his elder sister, his heart was soft and his tone was also soft.
"Don't be afraid, sister. It's not my blood. It's probably from the Major General's armor."
Jiang Lingyun snorted coldly and let go decisively, but Jiang Zhiyue gently held her sleeve.
Jiang Lingyun looked at her coldly, and Jiang Zhiyue showed a cautious smile, being extremely well-behaved.
"Sister, I was wrong. It was Ah Chan who was wrong before. I was bewitched and made you sad. If you are not satisfied, then starve me to death."
Jiang Lingyun was puzzled: "What?"
Jiang Zhiyue said with a guilty conscience but also a sense of righteousness: "I haven't had breakfast yet..."
King Xuan burst out laughing, his cousin was so funny.
Jiang Lingyun laughed angrily.
Naughty child, you are sure she will feel distressed, right?
