Lu Qingyan was really not comfortable entrusting the affairs of the entire manor to such a princess, so Xia Zi remained the head steward of the manor, and the princess was probably just another person in the manor.
According to custom, after getting married, one should go to receive official duties. However, because Prince Chen and Prince Ning were old and their marriage had been delayed, they were granted special permission to have duties to perform before that.
Now it was Lu Qingyan's turn to enter the court with the Fourth Prince. To be honest, Lu Qingyan had no expectations at all.
Unfortunately, her thoughts didn't represent those of others. Feng Changgui genuinely wished Lu Qingyan well, hoping that "he" would also be valued and become a pillar of the nation. Meanwhile, Prince Ning, who had already learned of the news, was on high alert.
Although Feng Changgui is not in the capital for most of the year, his followers have always been there and have always supported him. Now that Feng Changgui and Lu Qingyan are getting close, Lu Qingyan might also switch sides to Feng Changgui.
"No matter what, we must not let Feng Qingqing enter the court!" Prince Ning gave the order with red eyes.
The rule for entering the court was that one could not enter unless one was crippled or dead. Prince Ning was really ruthless towards his third brother.
At this moment, Lu Qingyan was unaware that a danger was about to befall her.
The entire Prince Jing's mansion was almost ready. Lu Qingyan thought she should go to the temple to get a peace charm to hang in the mansion for protection.
So, Lu Qingyan discreetly traveled to the outskirts of the city in a carriage. She was now a commander without any troops, with very few people around her, let alone any of her own soldiers.
One person drove the carriage, and Xia Xiazi and Lu Qingyan sat inside. The three of them looked really shabby. If it weren't for the carriage itself looking a little more elegant, everyone would probably think that the person sitting inside was just an ordinary person.
It has to be said that the chances of encountering danger are exceptionally high when going to a temple by horse-drawn carriage to draw lots or obtain talismans.
Sure enough, they had only gone halfway when they saw a large group of men in black rushing towards them. Their faces were also covered with black cloths, so they couldn't see what they looked like, only a pair of dark eyes that were filled with murderous intent.
Lu Qingyan: !!!
If she were alone, it wouldn't be a problem at all, but with these two by her side, she couldn't just abandon them and run away alone.
A servant is willing to sacrifice his life to be loyal to his master, and Lu Qingyan felt that it would be too unfair to let the two of them die here.
Having no other choice, I had to take the field.
Lu Qingyan immediately leaped and landed steadily in the middle of their group, snatched a long knife from their hands, and stabbed at them.
Those people had pretty thick skin; it would have taken a lot of effort to break through it. Lu Qingyan had to put in quite a bit of work.
"Who sent you?" Lu Qingyan asked as she fought. She felt that she hadn't offended anyone recently, so who was going to cause trouble for her?
No one answered. Their attacks were ruthless, clearly intended to kill Lu Qingyan.
You might dodge it once, dodge it a second time, and maybe even a third time, but not everyone can be so lucky as to survive such a barrage of blows.
Lu Qingyan was caught off guard; her arm was targeted. Fortunately, the wound wasn't deep, and aside from some pain, she felt nothing else. With a little more medicine, it should be almost completely healed in two or three days?
Lu Qingyan was quite satisfied with this, and he didn't want to have any scars on his body.
