Chapter 31 Let’s go treasure hunting!
When Cheng Yunmeng heard the young man's voice, the feeling of grievance almost drowned her.
The mother and son lived in such dire straits every day and had gotten used to it, but at this moment, such a person suddenly appeared.
Knowing all the grievances she had suffered, and still proudly upholding her little chest and vowing to seek justice for her, she could no longer bear it.
Although, this person's figure is so weak...
Cheng Yunmeng's tears burst out again, and her vision was instantly blurred.
However, when he heard the next content, Cheng Yunmeng suddenly coughed.
Hiding assassin??!
Who on earth had the guts to hide someone in her yard, not to mention an assassin?!
If someone were to find out afterwards, who would believe that she, as the owner of this yard, didn't know there was an assassin hiding in there? !
Cheng Yunmeng looked at Jiang Yingcheng in fear, expecting to hear from her inner voice that this was just a joke, but she only saw the girl's angry face.
[Damn it! This assassin is the same one who killed my father last month! This maid is just as damned as this assassin!]
She collapsed into the arms of Jiang Xingran who rushed over.
Finished......
This time it's all over...
Eunuch Changshun was also shocked.
Last month, there was indeed an assassination attempt in the palace. The assassin was stabbed in the abdomen by Emperor Mingze himself with a sword. Everyone thought he was dead for sure. After searching for several days in vain, important military intelligence happened to be reported to the palace, so they put the matter on hold for the time being.
Unexpectedly, today he learned from the little princess's thoughts that the assassin was not only alive, but was also hidden in this yard by the palace maids?
Did that palace maid feel that she had lived too long?
[Huh?]
Cheng Yunmeng raised his head suddenly.
[This assassin is seriously injured and very weak now. Is he easy to deal with?] Jiang Yingcheng's eyes were full of eagerness. [Where is it, where is it, that bounty, um, where is that assassin now?]
Jiang Yingcheng spoke quickly and said out his truest thoughts.
If she could catch the assassin, her father would definitely reward her with many gifts!
A glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Cheng Yunmeng's eyes.
If she could catch the assassin in advance, would that be considered as making up for her mistake?
Eunuch Changshun's eyes also lit up.
At this moment, the two people's thoughts were surprisingly consistent -
The credit for catching the assassin and protecting the little princess...
It's mine!
Both of them perked up, ready to rush out as soon as Jiang Yingcheng told them the specific location.
Zui Lan, who was kneeling on the ground, looked confused.
Why is no one talking?
Just let her go like this? ?
Jiang Yingcheng, who was still waiting for 007 to check the location for her, also discovered this.
[Oops, I forgot to fake cry! ]
Jiang Yingcheng started crying again.
Eunuch Changshun: "......"
Cheng Yunmeng: "......"
Zui Lan: “…”
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
"How dare such a servant disrespect his master," Eunuch Changshun coughed lightly, and one sentence determined Zui Lan's life or death, "Drag him out and behead him."
He was also anxious to know the whereabouts of the assassin and did not want to delay too much time on this matter.
A buzzing sound.
There was a huge roar in Zui Lan's ears, and for a moment she couldn't believe what she heard.
Instinct took a step ahead of reason, and she responded: "This servant, this servant did not push the little princess, please understand, eunuch!"
The little princess's forehead wasn't even a bit red or swollen, so how could it be said that she was pushed by her? !
No matter how hard her drunken and confused brain tried, she could never imagine that, except for the seventh prince Jiang Xingran, all the others in the room had been captured by that treacherous and cunning little dumpling, whose ability to lie with her eyes open was no less than that of Lan Zhaorong, who had first wronged her.
Jiang Yingcheng was being patted on the back gently by Eunuch Changshun. Her big eyes looked over Eunuch Changshun's shoulder at Zui Lan, with a gleam of mockery known as "taking pleasure in someone's misfortune" in her eyes.
[Hehehe, who would believe it~]
【Who~believe~?】
The weird tone of voice almost made Eunuch Changshun unable to continue his performance. He couldn't help but feel lucky that he had his back to the palace maid named Zui Lan.
Zui Lan received Jiang Yingcheng's gaze, but did not feel angry at all.
Her heart was filled with fear.
The current situation of Eunuch Changshun clearly showed that he just wanted to vent his anger for the little princess, and he didn't care at all whether she had really done anything.
After figuring this out, she immediately changed her strategy and started to kowtow to Jiang Yingcheng.
She kowtowed and said, "Your Highness, I was ignorant just now. I will definitely turn over a new leaf in the future. Please forgive me this time!"
The voice was trembling and mournful, completely different from the one just now when he was using his fingers to control the air.
Jiang Yingcheng stared at it for a while, then suddenly buried her face in Eunuch Changshun's arms, trying not to see it.
[Humph, I won’t listen! ]
[If we give her another chance, she will start to abuse and frame Aunt Yun Meng! ]
[But... isn't beating him with a stick a bit cruel? ]
Eunuch Changshun's heart softened, but he also became a little worried.
It is a good thing that the little prince is soft-hearted, but in this harem, being soft-hearted can be...
【How about changing to a drug bar? 】
Eunuch Changshun: "......"
His words were stuck in his throat, almost suffocating him.
After seeing the young man's pretended excitement calm down, Chang Shun slowly stood up and, expressionlessly, ordered his men to drag the man away.
There was no mention of beating at all.
But everyone present understood what this meant.
The clever little eunuch trotted forward, stretched out his hand first, and twisted Zui Lan's arm behind her back. Just as he was thinking of using more strength to prevent her from struggling, he saw her body go limp and she fell to the ground on the spot.
He was so frightened that he fainted.
The eunuchs who had been following Emperor Mingze for years had little sympathy. When they saw this man fainting, another person walked out of the crowd, grabbed Zui Lan's arm and dragged him out.
When the room returned to peace, Eunuch Changshun and Cheng Yunmeng looked at Jiang Yingcheng with sparkling eyes.
The troublesome palace maid has been dragged out. Now we can go look for the bounty, no, we can go look for the assassin, right?
Jiang Yingcheng, who was in the center of the crowd's attention, was unaware that he had become the focus of attention. He was bargaining with 007 with a frown on his face.
[This map is too simple, can't it be more detailed? ]
There were only two red dots on the map that 007 gave her, and no extra dots at all. She looked at it for a long time but still couldn't figure out which direction to go.
007 felt helpless, but he also knew that she was only this strong now, so he just said calmly: "I will tell you how to leave."
Jiang Yingcheng then grinned again.
