Chapter 66: Assassination, revealing true appearance!
Lin Xiaoyue took a deep breath and spoke out all the questions in her mind at once: "Boss, you and the Princess are already very familiar with each other, right? And that Linglong Pavilion is also your property, right? Otherwise, how can you be so confident that they will listen to you?"
The man nodded and said, "That's right, but because of something that happened at home, we don't have much contact now. And Linglong Pavilion is indeed mine. Mu Yao, you are very smart!"
Lin Xiaoyue hadn't expected her guess to be right, but how could the Dong family be similar to Brother Liang, both facing family troubles? Could it be that the Dong family and Brother Liang were the same person?
The strong thought made her little heart almost jump out of her throat. She felt that if she didn't ask today, she would be a coward!
She mustered up her courage and asked, "Boss, can I take off your mask?"
The man was about to speak when a voice came from outside, "Master, we've arrived at Linglong Pavilion!"
Just like that, Lin Xiaoyue watched her boss get off the carriage. She felt a sense of loss in her heart and slapped her head in annoyance. Why didn't she ask earlier?
Outside the carriage, the owner of Linglong Pavilion had been waiting for a long time with his hands clasped in front of his chest. Seeing the man, he stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Yao Jinheng greets the boss! I've already placed the jewelry you requested in the shop. Would you like to take a look now?"
The man shook his head and said, "No, take it out and I'll send it to the carriage for Mu Yao to choose."
Yao Jinheng was a little surprised. When had the boss shown such interest in a woman? Not only did he take the best jewelry in the store, but he also personally presented it to her. It seemed like good things were coming for the boss!
Ever since the master and his wife were driven out of the capital, the Dong family's marriage has been put on hold. Now the Dong family already has a lover, which is such a great joy!
Yao Jinheng said happily: "Yes, boss, please wait a moment!"
But happiness is always accompanied by sadness. Before Yao Jinheng entered Linglong Pavilion, the sound of galloping horses outside interrupted his steps.
Even Lin Xiaoyue in the carriage felt something was wrong. She lifted the curtain and looked out, only to see a large group of people rushing towards her carriage. Leading the group was an elderly man dressed in gorgeous clothes, looking very imposing. Beside him was Jingyi, a woman Lin Xiaoyue was very familiar with. Behind them followed a large group of guards. The group was mighty and imposing!
"Boss, is that old man the King of Jingnan?"
The man nodded and said, "Yes. Please stay in the carriage and don't come out. I will help you choose jewelry after I deal with these people."
Lin Xiaoyue is not someone who can't tell the situation apart. If she keeps to herself at this moment, she will look down on herself! She is not worthy of taking the things given by the boss for free!
She returned to the carriage, found a pile of poison powder from the space and hid it in her sleeve, saying, "I'm afraid of them? That's a huge joke!"
At the same time, Jingyi and her father had arrived in front of the carriage.
Jingyi didn't see Lin Xiaoyue, so she pointed at the man in front of the carriage and asked, "Where's that bitch? I'm going to kill her today!"
The man looked annoyed and glared at her, saying, "Come at me if you dare. What's the big deal about bullying a weak woman?"
Jingyi snorted coldly and said, "Master Jueweilou, there's no need to rush to protect this bitch, because you won't be able to see tomorrow's sunrise alive!"
The man looked at Prince Jingnan and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, a tall tree attracts the wind. Forgive others when you can!"
Ever since Prince Jingnan annexed Prince Zhennan's power, he no longer takes anyone seriously. When he came back from the palace and heard that his precious daughter had been wronged, he immediately brought his daughter to settle the score with these people!
"Humph! You're bullying me and you think you're right! This is my daughter, no one but me can bully her! Come on, attack! Don't leave anybody alive! Kill them all!"
The guards obeyed the order and drew their swords one by one and rushed towards the carriage.
Seeing this, Yao Jinheng immediately called the thugs from Linglong Pavilion and fought with the guards who rushed over.
Prince Jingnan knew that Yao Jinheng was the owner of Linglong Pavilion. The person who could make Yao Jinheng swear to protect him at all costs must be the owner of Linglong Pavilion!
He laughed heartily and said, "So Jueweilou and Linglongge are one and the same! Haha, it seems that today I can not only get Jueweilou, but also Linglongge! From now on, who in the whole capital can be richer than me?"
Lin Xiaoyue, who was in the carriage, pulled out the dagger in her hand. When the guard stabbed the carriage with his sword, the curtain of the carriage flew up. She immediately activated the space to make herself invisible, and then slipped out of the carriage without anyone noticing.
This old immortal actually wants to swallow up Juewei Tower and Linglong Pavilion. Isn’t he afraid of being stuffed to death?
The old one is so greedy, no wonder the young one is so shameless and likes to force buying and selling!
Today, I will never let the old immortal and the shameless man succeed!
It is very convenient to move after becoming invisible. Jingyi and King Jingnan are both sitting on horseback. I can't reach them with a dagger if I want to stab them, so I'll use the power of the horse!
She walked carefully between Jingyi and King Jingnan, and stabbed the buttocks of both horses quickly and forcefully. The two horses ran wildly in pain.
The guards were worried about the safety of Jingyi and King Jingnan. Half of them chased in the direction of the galloping horses, and the remaining half could not pose a threat to the owner of Jueweilou and Yao Jinheng and others.
Lin Xiaoyue didn't dare to relax. She had to end the battle quickly before King Jingnan was rescued!
She ran back to the carriage, exited the invisibility function of the space, and stood out and shouted, "Boss, Manager Yao, please step back!"
Then Lin Xiaoyue held her breath, rushed to the guards, and threw away all the poison powder in her hand.
The guards were caught off guard and inhaled the poison powder. They fell to the ground one by one, struggling in pain and died after a few seconds.
Seeing that her plan was successful, Lin Xiaoyue was about to show off to her boss proudly when the sound of horse hooves was heard again. This time, King Jingnan got a bow and arrow from somewhere and shot at Lin Xiaoyue.
The owner of Jueweilou felt a tightness in his heart. He reached out and pulled Lin Xiaoyue into his arms, while using his other hand to hold a long sword to block the flying arrows.
However, what he never expected was that just as he shot down one arrow, another arrow flew towards him from the other direction. Although he quickly took Lin Xiaoyue to dodge, the arrow was too fast and he had no time to dodge it completely.
The arrow flew across and brushed past his eyebrows. A golden sound was heard and the long arrow flew past in an instant.
The metal mask that was originally covering his face suddenly fell off.
Clang!
Lin Xiaoyue looked up and saw a familiar face in front of her. She couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice, "Brother Liang!"
The boss turned out to be Liang Jingyao. Although Lin Xiaoyue had made countless assumptions in her heart, she was still shocked when she saw it.
Liang Jingyao and Jingyi are engaged, and King Jingnan must know him!
No, she couldn't let them see Brother Liang's true face! If she did, they would immediately know who was behind Jueweilou and Linglong Pavilion! Then Brother Liang's influence in the capital would be completely uprooted!
Brother Liang has been planning for many years, and it must not be ruined here!
Lin Xiaoyue buried Liang Jingyao's face in her arms and hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and wait for me in the valley!"
Liang Jingyao looked at Lin Xiaoyue, who frowned in pain and had a trace of blood oozing from the corner of her mouth. Knowing that she had been shot by an arrow, he wanted to push Lin Xiaoyue away to stop her from doing anything stupid. "Be obedient and let me deal with them!"
Lin Xiaoyue grabbed Liang Jingyao's hand tightly and threatened: "Unless you step over my dead body! Let me ask you, you have endured for so many years, are you willing to do this? If not, then leave! I swear, I will come back alive!"
