Chapter 269 Trouble



Li Nian said coldly, "Xiaohong, get them out!"

After giving the order, she hurriedly ran behind the screen.

Jin He, who was crying loudly on the bed, stopped crying as soon as she saw her. She pouted and cried out in grievance, "Mother..."

"Mom is here, everything is fine." Li Nian hurried forward and held Jinhe in his arms.

The people outside the house were still in a stalemate.

Li Nian raised his voice and shouted angrily, "Sir, are you determined to break into my house today?"

She hugged Jinhe and patted her soothingly.

Xiao Hong's voice was slightly angry: "Sir, you have disturbed my wife and young master. If you don't leave, don't blame us for being rude."

Xiaobai also spoke up: "Sir, instead of wasting time here, you should quickly search other places to prevent the thieves from taking advantage of this opportunity to escape."

The leader of the officers and soldiers looked unwilling, but was helpless because of their attitude, and ultimately did not dare to force his way in.

Following Xiaobai's words, he continued, "If that's the case, let's just forget about it this time. If there's a next time, I will definitely not let it go!"

After that, he turned around and said, "Let's go!"

Seeing them leave, Li Nian finally put down what he was holding.

She sent Xiaohong and Xiaolu away, leaving Xiaobai alone.

Holding Jin He, who was already dressed, he walked to the outer room of the house and whispered, "Come out!"

Xiaobai was startled and saw a figure crawling out from under the bed.

Just as he was about to ask, he heard Li Nian explain, "I was sleeping soundly, but he suddenly broke in through the window. Now you have to find a way to get him away."

Sima Shaoyu crawled out from under the bed and looked at the woman holding the child in front of him with complicated eyes.

"Thank you, Madam, for saving my life. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask."

Li Nian scoffed and said calmly, "Forget it. Just don't bother me again next time."

Having said that, she looked up at Xiaobai and instructed, "From now on, Yunjing Court will have 12-hour shifts every day. Especially in the middle courtyard, more guards will be assigned to guard it to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation again."

Xiaobai responded: "Yes!"

Li Nian suddenly attacked, and Sima Shaoyu fell into a coma.

She ordered the stunned Xiaobai, "Alright, take him away. Oh, and don't let anyone see him. After all, he's from the Xiyuan royal family."

Xiaobai's steps became unsteady.

No, ma'am, is it really appropriate for you to say this so calmly?

After driving away the messy people, Li Nian couldn't sleep, which was a good opportunity for him to accompany Jinhe who had just been woken up.

Sima Shaoyu has been drugged by her and will completely forget about his visit to Yunjingting tonight. Even if he is caught then, she will not be implicated.

The sky is bright and beautiful.

Li Sisi has been busy all day and rarely gets a chance to sleep in.

When she woke up, Xiao Yunchen was no longer in the room, and there were cakes and fruits left on the table.

There was a piece of white paper under the pastry plate, probably to remind her not to run out rashly.

Li Sisi curled her lips. She was not stupid and naturally knew that she could not go out now. Otherwise, if a woman Tirana suddenly appeared in Xiao Yunchen's room, wouldn't it be obvious to everyone that she was the one who broke into the government office last night?

There was a basin of water and something for rinsing the mouth on the basin rack in the room, which looked like it was prepared for her.

After washing up, Li Sisi picked up the fruit on the table and started eating.

But I was wondering in my heart, when can I leave?

At this time, in the prefect's study.

Zhang Zhifu looked at the man in front of him in surprise. "You mean you're leaving today? Didn't you say you'd wait two days? Why are you so anxious all of a sudden?"

Xiao Yunchen remained calm and made up an excuse to prevaricate.

Zhang Zhifu frowned slightly upon hearing this, but he nodded nonetheless. "Since Your Excellency has made the decision, I will follow your instructions." He asked somewhat anxiously, "The rest of the plan remains unchanged, right?"

Xiao Yunchen replied: "No change."

"That's good." Zhang Zhifu's expression relaxed, and he began to discuss all preparations for leaving with Xiao Yunchen.

At noon, Li Sisi was lying on the bed bored, with her right foot resting on her left leg and her ankle swinging.

When Xiao Yunchen pushed the door open and entered the room, this was the scene he saw.

He was stunned for a moment, then he closed the door tightly, a smile on his lips: "Sister, are you bored? We can leave here after lunch."

Li Sisi had already put her feet down and sat upright on the edge of the bed when Xiao Yunchen closed the door.

Hearing what he said, she hurriedly asked, "We? Are you coming with me?"

Xiao Yunchen hummed softly, walked towards the bed, and said softly, "That wasn't the original plan, but I couldn't wait for Qingyan and the others to come and help me. Now that my sister is here, I'll trouble you to take me to find Ruliu and the others."

"Ah... okay!" Li Sisi agreed after hesitating for a moment.

Since she was also going back to the capital, it would be fine to bring him along along the way.

After lunch, Li Sisi and Xiao Yunchen each rode a horse and headed south.

The two of them had just left Nanping City and arrived at the mountains in the south.

Suddenly, the sound of an arrow breaking through the air was heard, heading straight towards Xiao Yunchen.

"Puff!" The arrow hit the horse under Xiao Yunchen. Mal screamed and raised his front hooves high.

"Xiao Yunchen!" Li Sisi exclaimed, watching the horse galloping forward, and suddenly several men in black rushed out from both sides of the mountain, holding swords and blocking Xiao Yunchen's horse.

Everything happened in an instant.

Li Sisi didn't care about other reactions and immediately pulled the reins. She immediately swung the dagger at her waist towards the assassin who was about to raise his sword to chop Xiao Yunchen.

Then she leaped up, raised her sword and rushed towards the other men in black.
