Chapter 71: Ronger understands her husband's intentions
"Don't come over here! Help!" Jiang Wenmian was so frightened that his legs went limp. He huddled in the corner of the carriage, shivering, and said hastily, "I'll give you whatever money you want..."
"puff!"
The leading assassin stabbed him in the chest with a sword, and blood splattered everywhere.
"Help..." Jiang Wenmian stared with his eyes wide open, and his pupils gradually dilated.
The assassin was about to search...
The next moment, a group of masked secret guards appeared in the surrounding mountains and forests.
Fight to the death to protect Jiang Wenmian's body!
The two sides are fighting...
The sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, and a group of captains wearing flying fish uniforms appeared at the intersection. The leader was Chu Jue.
He recognized the leading assassin at a glance as the gold medal killer in the famous Assassination Pavilion in the world - Cold-Blooded Sword.
He has fought against the Cold-Blooded Sword.
Chu Jue fired three consecutive shots from the crossbow in his sleeve, directly at the cold-blooded swordsman.
When the cold-blooded sword saw that it was someone from the Mingxin Division who came, he immediately said:
"withdraw!"
There's no need to risk your life for this little money.
The assassins retreated quickly, and Mingxinsi was unable to stop them, so there were not many casualties on the spot...
Jiang Wenmian's guards ran fast.
Assassins kill people for money, and they won't kill for free as long as these people don't stop them.
There was only one person lying in a pool of blood - Jiang Wenmian.
Chu Jue dismounted and walked to Jiang Wenmian's body. He then looked at the group of skilled black-clad secret guards and asked cautiously, "Who are you?"
The leader, An Liu, took out a token of the Northern Palace from his pocket and said:
"We are the secret guards of the Northern Prince. We were ordered by the Prince's wife to secretly escort the Second Young Master Jiang. But we didn't expect the assassin to suddenly appear just now... We didn't have time to save him..."
Chu Jue took the token and confirmed that it was really someone from the Northern Palace.
For a moment, he was speechless.
Is this how you protect people? The bodies are cold, okay?
It's not easy for Xie Lingxi to live to this day.
He had received reliable information that there was a fugitive nearby.
They rushed over in a hurry but failed to catch the fugitive.
I witnessed a murder.
This case fell into his hands, he must get to the bottom of it!
"This man was murdered. This case has been taken over by this lieutenant." Chu Jue said, "Come here, take the body away!"
An Liu glanced at the intact saddle bag on Jiang Wenmian's shoulder and did not stop him.
The corpse collection mission was successfully handed over!
Goodbye!
…
May 12th.
The Jiang family lived in the mansion of the Earl of Loyalty and Righteousness, and held the coming-of-age ceremony for Jiang Wen.
The house is full of distinguished guests.
As the only legitimate daughter of the eldest son, Jiang Rong should be present.
In order to show support for Jiang Wenxing, the Shen family all arrived early.
"Crown Princess!" Shen Wenyuan saw Jiang Rong from afar and immediately stepped forward and said, "Crown Princess, I shouldn't have said such harsh words to you last time. Thinking of the kindness of the Earl of Zhongyi in adopting me, I feel very guilty. I came here today to apologize to you."
Tian also chimed in, "Jiang girl, give him a chance to reform."
Jiang Rong understood it at a glance.
Shen Wenyuan apologized to him today just to show it to Master Shen.
"Last time I showed up with Zhou Hongyang, but I really wanted to help. It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly and got angry with you because of it. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have..." Shen Wenyuan continued to apologize with a pitiful look on his face.
The more he compromised, the more it seemed that Jiang Rong was relentless and was deliberately targeting Shen Wenyuan.
The guests around looked at him sideways and talked quietly.
Shen Wenyuan was secretly pleased with himself. He knew that Jiang Rong's noble character would not allow him to reconcile.
His father saw clearly that it was all Jiang Rong's fault for going too far...
Jiang Rong saw through his little plan at a glance, but she didn't want to play along with Shen Wenyuan.
She finds it disgusting.
Is Shen Wenyuan worthy?
At this moment...
A tall figure stood in front of Jiang Rong, speaking in a cold voice:
"Shen Wenyuan, get out of here——"
Jingzhe and others immediately cleared the area and pushed Shen Wenyuan aside.
Shen Wenyuan sat down on the ground, staggered as if he had been pushed, and looked at his father with great grievance and pity.
"Prince of the Northern King..." Master Shen looked at him, frowning, "What are you doing?"
"Master Shen, what people say is scary. You should know that your Excellency once had an engagement with our Crown Prince's Consort. If you say a few more words, who knows how many rumors will spread. If your Excellency really wants to apologize, then he can just avoid our Crown Prince's Consort in the future." Xiao Nanxing took over the conversation with a smile.
Master Shen hesitated for a moment. From the perspective of etiquette, there seems to be nothing wrong with this?
The figure standing in front of Jiang Rong ignored the Shen family and after driving Shen Wenyuan away, he walked straight inside, holding the young woman behind him.
Jiang Rong raised her little face, looked at his back, and followed him forward step by step.
No matter when, in the past life or this life, he would always stand in front of her.
Jiang Rong shook his arm gently.
Xie Lingxi turned around, and the faint light of the morning sun fell on his handsome and flawless face, like a colorful painting: "Hmm?"
"Husband, I like you so much today too!" Jiang Rong smiled.
Xie Lingxi's defiant expression, which showed him as the best prince in the world, froze in an instant.
Caught off guard, someone confessed their love to you?
He could walk through mountains of swords and seas of fire without batting an eyelid, but facing the eyes of a young lady as bright as stars, he had no experience to resist.
"Thank you, husband, for coming to accompany Rong'er today! Rong'er understands your feelings. My heart is the same as yours, and Rong'er feels the same way about you!" Jiang Rong moved closer to him, her face slightly red, her eyes burning.
Xie Lingxi: ???
What do I mean? How come I don't know? How do you know?
Of course Jiang Rong understood.
Her husband was a hidden boss who was busy with many things every day. He was very busy on weekdays. She came to the Jiang family today and did not disturb him...
He just didn't want to let such a small matter of the Jiang family distract him from his important work.
But Xie Lingxi came here on his own initiative.
He always cared about her, remembered her and protected her.
My husband really likes her!
She loves her husband very much too.
…
Jiang Rong and Xie Lingxi entered the inner hall.
Jiang Qingrong came forward with great joy. His son was about to become the Earl of Loyalty and Righteousness, and he was proud of the grand ceremony today.
As soon as he saw Xie Lingxi and Jiang Rong, Jiang Qingrong smiled:
"Rong'er and the Crown Prince, please take a seat. The ceremony will begin in an hour. By the way, Rong'er, when I was sorting out Chang's belongings, I found several pieces of your mother's jewelry. They should be returned to their original owners, but I can't recognize all of these things, and I'm afraid I've missed some. They are all in the warehouse, so you can pick them out yourself."
The Jiang family is not short of those pieces of jewelry now. Using them to please Jiang Rong is the most cost-effective deal.
"Thank you, uncle." Jiang Rong was moved and stood up to thank him.
"Well, of course I should. When you have time, please come back to your parents' home more often. Your brothers and sisters miss you..." Jiang Qingrong tried to make friends with them.
Jiang Rong exchanged a few words with him and went to the storeroom to get her mother's jewelry.
Just as I passed a garden, I heard a conversation coming from inside.
