Chapter 133 Tell me, can this silver needle of mine pierce your neck?
The two beggars were startled. Soon, Lao Ma smiled obscenely: "Oh! The beauty is awake. They say that the daughters of officials are reserved. Lao Li, we have met a hungry man who will eat anything. This is a good idea. Let's go together."
However, when Lao Li met Lan Xiyue's cold eyes, he involuntarily took a step back, and an inexplicable chill surged in his heart.
Seeing this, Old Ma couldn't help but sneer and said, "Old Li, what are you afraid of? It's just a little girl, how can you scare her? Let's do this job, take the money, leave the capital, and travel freely. We won't have to be beggars anymore, and we can even enjoy the taste of a lady from an official family. How about that?"
Lao Li tugged at his sleeve and said in a panic, "No, Lao Ma, this woman's eyes look a bit scary!"
Upon hearing this, Lao Ma turned to look at Lan Xiyue and his body couldn't help but shudder. Damn, such a cold look. Lao Ma couldn't help swallowing.
At this moment, Lao Li suddenly tugged at his clothes and said, "Lao Ma, why do you feel so hot?"
Lao Ma also noticed something strange in his body. "Well, me too. Why do I suddenly feel so hot?"
………
Outside, in the darkness, An Yi and An Er were looking at each other with serious expressions.
"What should we do? Those two beggars actually broke into Miss Lan's resting room." There was a hint of anxiety in An Er's voice, and his eyes looked at the closed door from time to time with some worry.
An Yi frowned, his eyes were like torches, and he shouted in a low voice: "Why are you panicking? If we show up now, won't we be discovered by the future princess? The master has issued a strict order. If we are discovered by Miss Lan, we should prepare to go back to the Dark Guard Camp for training again." At this point, An Yi shuddered involuntarily, as if the arduous training in the Dark Guard Camp was still in front of him.
Upon hearing this, beads of sweat oozed from An Er's forehead. His voice trembled as he said, "But if anything happens to Miss Lan, how will we ever get back to the Dark Guard Camp? I'm afraid we'll have to report directly to the underworld. Besides, Miss Lan saved my life, and I can't bear to see her in danger."
An Yi's body stiffened when he heard this. "No, An Er, I think these two beggars shouldn't pose any threat to our future princess! Don't forget, our future princess is not a weak woman."
An Er glared at An Yi, "What if? Who knows what dangers might lie in the room? If anything were to happen to Miss Lan, could you bear the consequences?"
An Yi cursed, "Asshole! If I had known that the two beggars would enter the yard, I should have taken action and thrown a stone in the air to knock them unconscious. I wouldn't be so conflicted now."
An Er gritted his teeth, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, "What are you waiting for? Let's go and check the situation. Otherwise, if Miss Lan is in trouble, we will report to the underworld!"
Just as the two were about to leave, the door creaked open and Lan Xiyue's figure came into view.
An Yi quickly pulled An Er and whispered, "See, I said the future princess would be fine, but I forgot that our future princess has real skills."
An Er also breathed a sigh of relief and hid his body again.
Lan Xiyue looked at the next room, walked over, pushed open the door and walked in.
Seeing Chuxia lying on the ground, Lan Xiyue hurried forward, squatted down, checked her carefully, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
She gently pressed Chu Xia's philtrum, and she slowly woke up, looking around in confusion: "Miss? Where am I? Oh, yes, Miss, I saw two beggars. Just as I was about to scold them, they covered my mouth with a handkerchief, and then I knew nothing."
Chu Xia looked around and asked in confusion, "Where am I? Where are those two beggars?"
"He ran away after being scolded by me. Let's go and find Chuchun." There was a hint of indifference in her words, as if the scene in the room just now was just a trivial episode.
Chu Xia followed closely behind, doubts surging in her heart like a tide. She looked back at the closed door and scratched her head: "Why would a beggar appear in the Protectorate Mansion?"
Lan Xiyue did not stop, her eyes swept towards a maid who was looking around not far away. When the maid saw Lan Xiyue coming out, her face turned pale instantly and she turned around to leave.
Lan Xiyue moved as fast as lightning. She had an embroidery needle in her hand and threw it lightly. The maid's eyes went black and she fell limply to the ground.
Chu Xia was dumbfounded, while Lan Xiyue just glanced coldly at the maid on the ground.
"You're lucky. Today is my grandmother's birthday, and I don't want to kill anyone and ruin the celebration."
Lan Xiyue turned around, her gaze falling on the Lvmanxuan courtyard again. She had extinguished the incense in the room, and had also given the two beggars the antidote. After she carried the maid out, she would carry the other two beggars away.
System: "Master, why don't you kill those two beggars?"
Lan Xiyue raised her lips to a faint smile: "This is not a place for killing people."
System: "Master, this is not like you!"
Lan Xiyue's eyes grew deep. "That old lady was very kind to me. Today is her birthday. I don't want to kill anyone here and cause any disturbance."
System: "Master, do you know who wants to deal with you?"
Lan Xiyue sneered, squatted down and woke up the maid on the ground.
The maid opened her eyes, her eyes filled with fear, "Cousin... Cousin."
Lan Xiyue looked at her lazily, a playful smile on her lips: "Tell me, who is the person behind you?"
The maid looked flustered, twisting the corners of her clothes tightly with her hands, her eyes flickering. She stammered, her voice as thin as a mosquito: "Cousin... Cousin, I don't know what you are talking about."
Lan Xiyue's lips curled up into a cold smile, but her eyes were devoid of any warmth. "You deliberately soiled my dress and brought me to this remote Lv Man Xuan. And you're looking around furtively here. What's going on? And you still don't tell me who ordered you to do this?"
Tears welled up in the maid's eyes, but she still tried hard not to let them fall: "I really don't know what my cousin is talking about."
Lan Xiyue's eyes flashed, and she had a slender silver needle in her hand. She placed it against the maid's neck and asked in a sinister tone, "Tell me, can this silver needle of mine pierce your neck?"
Xiao Cui's face turned even paler in an instant, and her body trembled slightly. She cried in a trembling voice, "Don't kill me, I'll tell you, I'll tell you..."
Lan Xiyue raised her eyebrows slightly. How could she be so easily frightened? Tsk, so boring. She retracted the silver needle and said calmly, "Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"
