Chapter 419 Hu Shanxiang 10
In the following days, Hu Shanxiang, who had not seen him come to Jiming Temple again, thought that she had hit him too hard. However, Zhu Zhanji soon proved to her with his actions that she had underestimated the Zhu family's reputation.
Hu Shanxiang, dressed in men's clothing, stood at the shooting range, still confused. Was this man so eager to flirt with women? He was really okay with meeting two beautiful women in the same place at the same time.
Although she thought so, Hu Shanxiang knew very well that he might have a good impression of Sun Ruowei at this moment, but the most important thing to Zhu Zhanji was her identity as an orphan of the Jingnan Rebellion.
As for herself, a mysterious girl with a voice in the emperor's presence, a close relationship with the old monk, and yet a murky past, Hu Shanxiang knew full well that the cat-like emperor's curiosity was deadly when it flared up, but if he were to say he liked him, it would be a 40% chance at best.
And what he cares about most at the moment is naturally Jianwen.
After all, this is his grandfather's biggest concern. Maybe at the beginning, this guy was thinking that in order to help his grandfather find his beloved nephew Jianwen, he, as a grandson, had to sell out himself and sacrifice his body to seduce the female rebel.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji, who was holding the bow in one hand and the arrow in the other, and almost holding Sun Ruowei in his arms, looked like a prostitute selling his looks.
Hu Shanxiang couldn't help but burst out laughing. When the two looked at her, she squints her eyes and puts the closed folding fan to her lips, pretending to look back at them innocently and calmly.
Seeing the two of them getting so close, Shanxiang, knowing what they were going to say, tactfully took two steps back, pretending to be a caring brother who wanted to give this fake couple some space.
After Zhu Zhanji pretended to strangle Sun Ruowei's neck and deliberately whispered about her identity as an orphan of the Jingnan Rebellion, Hu Shanxiang followed suit, pretending to be a bystander who had heard nothing. She just took three or two steps forward and shouted hypocritically, "Brother Huang, what are you doing? How can you be so rude to a girl? Let's talk it over nicely."
Just as she walked up to Sun Ruowei, she saw that the situation between them had changed drastically. Sun Ruowei rushed towards the other's solar plexus, then lowered her head, bent her body, turned around, raised her head, drew her bow and aimed, with a very strong posture.
Zhu Zhanji on the other side took two steps back, and when he had steadied himself, he subconsciously looked up at Hu Shanxiang. He saw that there was only interest in her eyes, and her beautiful peach blossom eyes were shining with brilliance, and she was almost in a mood of laughing at a joke.
"Brother Hu, we are brothers after all. Don't just watch the show. Help mediate."
Zhu Zhanji raised a cynical smile at the corner of his mouth, but his words revealed a sense of gnashing of teeth, especially when he called him "Brother Hu". If you didn't know better, you would think he was going to chew someone to pieces.
Hu Shanxiang waved her hands and let Sun Ruowei point the arrow at Zhu Zhanji's head, as if she were standing still, without even lifting a foot. "Hey~ How can an outsider like me get involved in this kind of thing? It's not what a gentleman does."
"This is a matter between the two of us. Why do you have to involve innocent people?"
Sun Ruowei also spoke up. She had always had an inexplicable fondness for this girl named Hu and didn't want her to get involved in these dirty things. Now that she saw Zhu Zhanji trying to drag her into this, she became furious and raised her hand as if to pierce this stinky man.
"Hey! Wait, wait a minute, can you wait for me to say my last words?"
Zhu Zhanji suddenly raised his hands and kowtowed, begging for mercy. He uttered a pitiful last word. The girl softened her heart and stood still. She curled her lips but nodded and said, "What last words? Tell me."
Zhu Zhanji seemed to be hesitant and kept winking at Shanxiang behind Sun Ruowei. However, the usually clever and tactful Doctor Hu stared up at the sky and the ground, refusing to even look back at the longing Big Red Hoof.
"Will you tell me?"
From Sun Ruowei's perspective, she could only see Zhu Zhanji looking at her with that strange, eager look, which made her even more angry.
Zhu Zhanji gritted his teeth and asked, his expression awkward: "Ah, are you engaged?"
Sun Ruowei was no longer natural now. She shouted, "No!" and pretended to let go.
Zhu Zhanji quickly waved his hands: "Wait, I have one more thing to say!"
Sun Ruowei was about to listen again when she suddenly smelled a faint cold fragrance, which reminded her of her childhood when she was learning martial arts in Zhongnan Mountain and the cold wind that always lingered around her when she and her fellow apprentices walked through the pine forest in the snow.
The cold, cool and mysterious smell was very different from the image of Dr. Hu in front of her in the past, but it was a smell that made her feel at ease.
Slender fingers, with a hint of coldness, rested on the back of Sun Ruowei's right hand. A faint voice came from the horizon, "Let go."
Clang——!
Sun Ruowei subconsciously released her right hand from holding the arrow feather, and the arrow flew straight towards Zhu Zhanji's chest. Sun Ruowei subconsciously widened her eyes and let out a half-scream of surprise: "No...are you okay?"
Zhu Zhanji ignored Sun Ruowei's question. His eagle eyes were fixed on Shanxiang behind her. His throat seemed to be filled with ice. For the first time, he revealed his majestic power in front of them: "You want to kill me?!"
"What a shame! The jet stone arrowhead, while its weight remains the same, still can't kill anyone. I can only let Miss Sun suffer a little while giving this scoundrel a couple of blows to vent my anger."
Hu Shanxiang was not afraid of his ferocious expression at all. She even tilted her head and raised a provocative arc at the corner of her mouth towards him. Then she grabbed Sun Ruowei's hand and shot an arrow at his chest.
“Hmm!”
Zhu Zhanji cursed this vixen inwardly for being so seductive, deliberately smiling so beautifully to divert his attention. Seeing that she had already helped Sun Ruowei to draw the bowstring, he quickly covered his chest and moved flexibly to avoid it.
While this jet stone wouldn't kill, it didn't hurt. He was wearing the Feiyu uniform of a fourth-rank Jinyiwei commander, which looked handsome, but unfortunately, he wasn't wearing a breastplate, which couldn't quite protect him from the impact of the arrows. He was caught off guard and took two solid hits, which was incredibly painful.
Bah, bah, bah, grandma, don’t blame me, grandma, don’t blame me.
