Until I Married the Eldest Princess

Chapter 8 Helpless Things

Li Xiu found out the vicinity of the Xu family's mansion, and before he settled down in Jiangnan, he had roughly figured out the power here, and analyzed that there was nothing here that could threaten him, so he settled down here.

A powerful family like this usually has warriors sitting in it, and its strength is comparable to that of the imperial court, or even slightly surpassed. With these powerful people sitting in the family, the family is not worried about someone getting in.

After all, the assassin could be heard miles away, let alone inside the mansion.

Covering his face with a black cloth, Li Xiu flipped over the fence and landed in the mansion without being noticed by anyone.

He was not very familiar with the distribution of buildings in the mansion, and he followed the maids in the mansion secretly for a long time before he figured out most of the routes.

In such a big place, it takes half an hour to go to the toilet, feudalism is too abominable!

Li Xiu secretly scolded the big dog, if Zhong Luoyao were to be convicted, with her personality, they might all be dragged out and copied.

Finally found the main hall here, saw a group of people talking about something, Li Xiu sat down on the eaves and listened to the people inside.

"...It's really beautiful, the emerald green clothes, the slender waist and hands."

"Come on, Xu Lin, the clan elders know how much you love her. It's fine if you can get her, the clan will try their best to help you, but if you can't, it's not a good time to cause too much trouble."

As soon as Li Xiu sat down, he felt something was wrong when he heard these two lines of dialogue.

Damn, isn't this description of his wife?

Zhong Luoyao wants to work in the government, so it's not impossible for a boy from this family to become lustful when he sees her passing by.

Feelings are because you like my wife and want to rob someone, right?

Li Xiu remembered yesterday's warriors and sneered at his teeth immediately. Seeing that he did not slap Ya's intestines, he dared to find his own elder to grab my wife.

But then the conversation started again.

"Also, His Majesty the Emperor sent someone to send a message today. It is a member of the Imperial Guard."

"It turned out to be the Imperial Guard!?"

Li Xiu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this name. The imperial guards are amazing, he was the first one to get down, and of course they are all extremely strong fighters.

"The news spread that if the eldest princess is willing to marry in a proper manner, that's fine. If she doesn't want it, we can only..."

"Then, what if he is really killed? That's Dayan's eldest princess!"

"Xu Lin, what kind of courage do you have? Don't you have an omnipotent target? The person who assassinated His Majesty is still at large. It's no surprise that he assassinated the eldest princess. Just leave it to him."

"..." Li Xiu.

He wanted to kill the group of people below now.

Feelings He just came here and heard two things, and these two things are all aimed at him, right? ?

His surname is Li, not Shichen!

It has nothing to do with him whether or not the eldest princess fails, but he cannot take the blame for this.

Li Xiu was thinking like this, when he suddenly lowered his head and saw a maid approaching with tea, she looked up and saw Li Xiu, her face became stiff immediately.

Ask, how would an ordinary maid react when she saw a masked stranger sitting on the eaves?

Li Xiu understood very well.

"Your next sentence is—ah!".

"Ahhhhh!!"

"Clap!"

The terrified screams and the sound of the maid slamming teacups and plates on the floor attracted the people in the main hall, as well as the warriors in the mansion.

"Who is it!?" The head of the Xu family exclaimed angrily, their conversation was overheard.

Li Xiu felt the approach of the warriors, and after hesitating for a moment between 'kill them all here' and 'run away', he chose the latter.

After all, if you choose the former, there will be too much commotion.

Stepping on the tiles under his feet, he jumped tens of meters in an instant with the power of lightness, and waved his hand with a smile when he saw the chasing warrior:

"Bye~"

The figure disappeared in a flash.

The Xu family warrior's pupils shrank, and after realizing that he could not be found, he went back to the eaves to check the situation.

"With such a fast speed, not even a single tile is broken, and the accuracy of true qi control is far beyond ordinary people. This person is a super-class warrior." The Xu family warrior whispered.

The Patriarch of the Xu family clenched his hands tightly. If this person is the eldest princess' guard, it will be over.

"Find out his identity!"

"If it wasn't for the eldest princess' bodyguard, Xu Lin, go tomorrow to persuade the eldest princess to strictly enforce the ban on martial arts, we must find him!"

Moreover, who would such a strong guy be if he wasn't from the eldest princess?

It can't really be the worst possibility, can it?

The head of the Xu family trembled because of fear.

Only those who know the power of the imperial guards and Jinyiwei will know how terrifying the guy who knocked them down is!

……

"Old Liu, here are two sugar cakes."

And Li Xiu was buying snacks on the street at this time.

"You were called out by your wife to go shopping again. Although your wife is beautiful, she is too lazy."

"Well, she just doesn't care about the things she doesn't care about. If she really has the heart, she is actually very diligent. In fact, she would take the trouble to wake me up every day."

"Oh, it's really nice to have this kind of thing again. Did I ask you to get up and do morning exercises?"

"No, they asked me to make breakfast."

"..." Old Liu, "You are really being bullied by her, right?"

Wrap the sugar cake in oiled paper and pass it to Li Xiu. Li Xiu took it and said casually, "How is it possible, I am number one in the world, who can bully me."

"Haha, if you are really number one in the world, that's fine. Recently, the court tax has become more and more heavy, and the court warriors have become more and more domineering. I heard from my brother in the countryside that after the 'Forbidden Martial Arts Order', the court warriors are simply emperors in small places. If you were number one in the world, you might be able to kill them."

Old Liu laughed.

"Strength does not mean omnipotence. If the army runs over, who will not die?" Li Xiu spread his hands.

"Too."

After bidding farewell to Lao Liu, Li Xiu walked home.

As soon as he opened the door, he heard Zhong Luoyao's displeased voice: "It's just shopping, it's too late!"

"There was a delay on the way." Li Xiu laughed.

He thought about what the Xu family had heard and said, "How's work going?"

"So-so." Zhong Luoyao said in boredom.

Li Xiu nodded, this was also expected by him, the other party used small tricks, and he didn't dare to be blatant yet, but he will start to intervene next, anyway, go to the government tomorrow to clarify the matter.

"I'll get up early tomorrow too." Li Xiu muttered.

"Huh? Why?" Zhong Luoyao frowned.

Li Xiu was dumbfounded: "No, don't you need to ask me to make breakfast if you get up earlier?"

Zhong Luoyao was startled and stopped talking, but she frowned slightly and seemed quite displeased.

"Well, or I'd better go to bed later." Li Xiu scratched his face and said.

"There's nothing I can do about you." Zhong Luoyao sighed.

To be honest, she doesn't care about breakfast, after all, if she wants to eat, Qingzhou prefect would like to bring all the delicacies of mountains and seas as a tribute every day.

But calling Li Xiu to get up every day, after all, feels like a wife.Zhong Luoyao secretly looked at Li Xiu and thought.

Although I don't really like it, but after all, it's a helpless thing to do a job and love a job.she thinks.

Chapter 9

"Advise me to investigate Jiangnan again for the 'ban on martial arts'?"

Early in the morning, Zhong Luoyao heard the request from the prefect of Qingzhou, and knocked on the table alone in the room to read.

"It's probably a request from the aristocratic family, but it's really strange why there is such a request all of a sudden."

Executing the 'Forbidden Martial Arts Order' is of course a business, but just because it is a business, something is wrong. Isn't the family's business a matter of being extravagant and eager to make money, even thinking of the court?

"Have you found out what happened to the family?" Zhong Luoyao said to the empty room.

The shadow guard suddenly appeared on one knee.

"Your Highness, according to our investigation, an unknown powerful warrior broke into the Xu family yesterday, and the other party fled undisturbed after being discovered."

"It's probably the martial artist who left traces in the fire at the temple fair. If the fire was caused by the Xu family, then does the other party have a character of retribution for flaws?" Zhong Luoyao thought in a low voice, resting his chin.

"The Xu family wants to find him because they are afraid."

"Your Highness?"

"Follow them and implement the 'Forbidden Military Order' first, anyway, they won't be able to escape from my palm." Zhong Luoyao said lightly.

Jiangnan is not where she fell, but her best supplement.

After taking down the Jiangnan family, that guy will probably stare his eyes away when he sees it.Zhong Luoyao looked at the direction of the house and thought with her face propped up, she couldn't help but smile.

"Your Highness, there is another matter about the people we found in the Imperial Guard in Jiangnan..."

As soon as she said this, Zhong Luoyao's expression turned cold.

Sure enough, you still can't get rid of the surveillance here?

It would be great if there was the No. [-] martial artist in the novel who was fascinated by her beauty and let her master it, and the imperial guards could easily solve it.

Anyway, she will definitely not fall for love.

……

"This mansion is quite big."
