Chapter 3 Maid 3

Just as Luo Xi had guessed.

Lu Jinghuai did indeed send people to keep an eye on the Prime Minister's wife and her legitimate daughter, Nan Xier.

If it really is her, then Lu Jinghuai will not let her go.

He also sent some people to find Luo Xi, demanding to see her body, dead or alive.

Luo Xi, however, kept walking in one direction.

Later, she encountered the Prince of Beichen on the road, who was riding a horse back to the north.

Luo Xi had never seen him before, nor did she know him.

She simply felt that this person had an extraordinary demeanor and must be either rich or noble.

Most importantly, look at the direction he went; it was the opposite of the capital.

Luo Xi knew she couldn't stay here any longer, or they would find her soon. Then, she wouldn't be able to escape. As a mere maid, no one would protect her. At that point, death would truly be her only option.

Luo Xi was very glad that she wasn't wearing a maid's uniform, but rather the kind of dress that ordinary women would wear.

Without hesitation, Luo Xi stepped forward and stopped him.

Song Huaiyu (Prince of Beichen): !!

He paused for a moment when he saw Luo Xi, "You?"

How could someone as beautiful as her end up in this desolate mountain forest?

Luo Xi looked at Song Huaiyu and said urgently, "Young master, could you... could you take me with you?"

Song Huaiyu: !!

Take her with you?

He looked at Luo Xi's dress, which was slightly torn by tree branches, and her shoes, which were a bit worn out.

"As long as the young lady doesn't mind."

Luo Xi was delighted and quickly said, "I don't mind."

Song Huaiyu reached out his hand and said gently, "Miss, please come up."

Luo Xi placed her right hand in his, and the next second, he pulled her up and placed her in front of him.

Song Huaiyu didn't ask her who she was or why she was there. If she wanted to tell him, she would.

The next day

When passing through Hu County, Luo Xi saw Lu Jinghuai not far ahead. She was startled, and then she buried her face in Song Huaiyu's arms, shrinking into his embrace and covering herself with his coat.

Song Huaiyu froze, looking at the person hiding in his arms with an ambiguous expression. Then, he looked at Lu Jinghuai, who was not far ahead.

She knows General Lu? And she's terrified of him.

His eyes turned cold. Could it be that General Lu is waiting here just to find her?

Who is she to Lu Jinghuai?

Lu Jinghuai saw Song Huaiyu, dismounted, and walked over to greet him. Then, looking at the person tightly embracing the Prince of Beichen, he asked, "Your Highness, may I ask who is in your arms?"

"My people..."

Lu Jinghuai: ...........

"Your Highness, the Prime Minister's eldest daughter, Nan Yue'er, has been murdered, and her personal maid has disappeared without a trace..."

Song Huaiyu: "So?"

Lu Jinghuai:

He didn't believe that Song Huaiyu couldn't understand what he meant.

Lu Jinghuai pointed at Luo Xi and said, "She is very likely to be Miss Nan's personal maid."

"Your Highness, may we allow her to show her face?"

Song Huaiyu: "No."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinghuai immediately reached out and tried to pull Luo Xi so he could see her face.

Song Huaiyu: !!

His eyes turned cold, and he reached out to slap Lu Jinghuai's hand away. Then, he dismounted while holding the person in his arms. He patted Luo Xi's head and said, "Stay away."

Then, he threw a punch at Lu Jinghuai.

Lu Jinghuai was stunned for a moment when he saw Luo Xi's face. Then, Song Huaiyu caught him red-handed.

And so, they started fighting...

In the end, Lu Jinghuai was no match for Song Huaiyu and was killed by him...........

Lu Jinghuai was, after all, a general; his death would be quite troublesome.

So, he took out a bottle of dissolving liquid and dripped it onto Lu Jinghuai's body. In no time, his corpse turned into bloody liquid...

Luo Xi: !!!

Song Huaiyu killed Lu Jinghuai because of her.

So she told Song Huaiyu everything. He was the Prince of Beichen; even if she hadn't told him, he would have found out anyway.

Song Huaiyu murmured, "The Prime Minister's wife?"

Suddenly, he thought of something, and his eyes lit up slightly. "So, you have nowhere to go right now?"

Luo Xi nodded.

Song Huaiyu clenched his fist and said gently, "You're so beautiful, and you have nowhere to go. It's quite dangerous."

"Would you like to come to my Beichen Prince's Mansion?"

"As for the Prime Minister's wife, don't worry, I will help you..."
