"It's just that I'm incompetent. Not only did I fail to catch up with them, I also failed to return home in time to stop Miss Yu from leaving. Please punish me, Your Highness." Butler Ying did not find excuses to shirk responsibility and accepted the punishment himself.
What?
Dafu and Xiaomi were captured?
Yu Tanqi frowned, wondering why someone would sneak into the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion just to steal cats and dogs.
"Do you know who they are?" Jiang Shi asked with a frown.
Butler Ying paused, "Based on their skills, I guess they must be from Prince Yun's Mansion."
Since the death of Marquis Wu'an and his wife, the people from Marquis Wu'an's Mansion and Prince Yun's Mansion have fought each other many times, and they have figured out each other's skills. As the steward of Marquis Wu'an's Mansion, Housekeeper Ying naturally knows the skills of the people from Prince Yun's Mansion.
Housekeeper Ying's face was not looking good. "They couldn't have sneaked into the Marquis' Mansion before, but this time they were able to sneak in quietly and take away several people, the raccoon servants, and the dog. It's because the servants who went out to buy things today were poisoned by the Gu insects. They took control of the people from Prince Yun's Mansion and brought them in by hiding them in the boxes. That's why we didn't discover them in time."
"Poison? How are the people who were poisoned now?" Jiang Shi's voice was slightly deep.
"They were all controlled by the poisonous insects and have died from the poison." Butler Ying looked heavy-hearted.
Jiang Shi's face didn't look good either, and his eyes were slightly cold.
Yunxuan.
He gritted his teeth secretly, but said calmly on the surface, "Bury them all properly. Don't tell their families for the time being. Give them some extra money and send it to their homes every month."
"yes."
Although there are few servants in the Wu'an Marquis Mansion, they all know martial arts, and most of them have families, and they meet with their families every month.
But now some people have died from the poison.
Jiang Shi really hated this kind of insidious trick.
However, no matter how furious he was in his heart, he remained calm on the surface, not wanting Yu Tanqi to be scared by him.
He looked at Yu Tanqi. The girl had a frown on her face, and her face was pale.
She had just been frightened today. Looking at the fragile girl, she didn't cry at this moment, but stood aside obediently. She was so strong that it made him feel distressed and guilty.
He held her hand tightly and intertwined their fingers.
They held hands all the time, and even in the carriage, Jiang Shi did not let go of Yu Tanqi's hand.
"Tan Qi, don't worry, I will rescue both Dafu and Xiaomi." He whispered soothingly.
Yu Tanqi nodded slightly and couldn't help but say, "I don't understand why these people took Dafu and Xiaomi away. They are not human."
She was really puzzled.
"I don't know either. Maybe they just want to lure away Butler Ying so that you can leave the Marquis' Mansion." Thinking that this might be Yun Xuan's purpose, Jiang Shi's eyes became colder.
He didn't like the feeling of his fiancée being coveted by others.
"This..." Yu Tanqi was even more confused.
Why did they let her leave Wu'an Marquis Mansion? If they were targeting her, they could sneak into Wu'an Marquis Mansion and capture her directly. How could they capture cats and dogs?
It's really off the mark.
"It's already late, Tan Qi must be hungry, let's eat first."
Under Jiang Shi's supervision, Yu Tanqi, who had no appetite, still ate the same amount of food as usual.
After the meal, Jiang Shi asked Yu Tanqi to take a bath to relax.
Perhaps because she was too frightened, Yu Tanqi fell drowsy after soaking in the bathtub for a while. Seeing this, Linlang and Taohua silently helped her wipe and dress, and then Linlang carried her to bed to rest.
Jiang Shi, who had also taken a bath, changed into black clothes and appeared beside Yu Tanqi's bed.
He was worried that Yu Tanqi would be anxious tonight, so he put some harmless sleeping potion in her food and tea, and asked Linlang and the other two to help her bathe and then put her to bed.
After bathing, the girl's face is pink and delicate, and her body exudes a sweet and pleasant floral fragrance.
The young man in black had gentle and deep eyes. He lowered his head and placed a kiss on her fair and plump forehead.
"Good night, have a sweet dream."
…
Prince Yun's Mansion.
The sound of dogs barking could be heard in the brightly lit study, disturbing the quiet night.
Yun Xuan lowered his eyes and looked at the long-haired dog that was locked in the cage and barking restlessly, with an inexplicable expression.
The long hair of this long-haired dog was carefully groomed into small curls and tied with a silk bow, which shows that its owner loves it very much.
This is the dog raised by Yu Tanqi, and the person who is responsible for serving it calls it "Da Fu".
Cheng Su stood aside, his face filled with anger at Dafu's noise. "Shut up! Why did you bring a dog back for no reason? Do you want to eat dog meat?"
Yun Xuan didn't say anything.
Ever since Dafu was taken away from the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, he, who had always been quiet and gentle, seemed to have sensed the danger and had been restless and barking restlessly.
Cheng Su said sinisterly, "This dog is too small. I guess its meat won't be very tasty, but it doesn't matter. As long as it's edible, I'll help you kill it."
He stretched out his claws to Dafu.
"Stop." Yun Xuan spoke to stop him.
Cheng Su frowned and looked at him unhappily: "If you don't want to eat dog meat, why did you go to all the trouble to catch the dog? Are you bored?"
Yun Xuan said indifferently, "I don't need to explain to you what I do. You can't touch this dog."
The relationship between the two is not that of a superior and a subordinate. Although Yun Xuan can suppress Cheng Su, he cannot completely control him.
It's just that everyone takes what they need and uses each other.
Yun Xuan gave Cheng Su a cold look, and Cheng Su spoke rudely.
"I don't care what you do, but it bothers me. I'm in a bad mood, so I'll try to do something to cheer me up. If I can't do anything to the dog, then I'll do something to my bugs."
When his bugs start moving, they crawl all over the ground and bite anyone they see.
Yun Xuan didn't want him to harm the people in her house, so she said coldly, "If you think the dog's barking is too noisy, you can go back. It can't disturb your house from where I am."
"you……"
Cheng Su wanted to say something, but suddenly the two of them changed their expressions and looked towards the open window. A stone was thrown into the study from outside, and finally hit the wall hard and fell to the ground.
Da Fu was frightened by the sudden noise and the dog's barking became even more shrill.
"Who?"
Yun Xuan frowned and walked to the window. Under the cool moonlight, he saw a young man in black, almost hidden in the night, looking at him coldly.
"Prince Jiang?" He was a little surprised.
"Come out." The boy's usually gentle voice was now low and cold.
Yun Xuan pursed her lips slightly, opened the window wide and jumped out, looking at Jiang Shi expressionlessly.
"I wonder what's the matter with Prince Jiang coming here uninvited?" Yun Xuan curled her lips, her cold voice now tinged with a hint of laughter. "Could it be that Prince Jiang knows what I did to your fiancée?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Jiang Shi really didn't like Yun Xuan's tone at this moment.
"How can I be said to be lying? Didn't you see it all?"
The young man laughed, his voice low and ambiguous.
"Your fiancée is truly delicate and soft, making people unable to let go..."
The young man in black suddenly appeared in front of him and punched him hard in the face.
