Chapter 121 His Royal Highness Prince Jin is a very kind person
The memories of the previous life were no longer clear. Lu Zhiran sat down against a tree with her eyes closed. She seemed to be resting, but in fact she was searching and recalling.
Xiao Yanci's eyes were always on her, with unscrupulous exploration.
She is very special, even so smart that she is almost a demon.
But for some reason, Xiao Yanci didn't feel the slightest bit defensive towards her. Instead, he felt that she deserved it.
He Yun brought pen and ink, and asked someone to drive the Lu family's carriage over.
Lu Zhiran got on the carriage. It took her a full quarter of an hour to finally finish drawing the topographic map and defense map.
Xiao Yanci took it and read it carefully.
After reading it, he looked deeply at Lu Zhiran again, "You know, if you tell this to me, it's like giving away all the credit. After it's done, I won't be able to claim the credit for you."
She couldn't explain the source of her information, so naturally, no one could take credit for it.
Xiao Yanci could trust her unconditionally and not ask any questions, but Emperor Defeng was not so easy to fool. If not handled properly, he would become suspicious and suspicious of Lu Zhiran.
Lu Zhiran looked calm, "This achievement is a great gift from this humble servant to Your Highness, as a token of my gratitude for your sincere rescue today."
This was a big bargaining chip for her to surrender to Xiao Yanci.
After this incident, the alliance between them was truly stable.
Xiao Yanci's heart was filled with turmoil.
He felt a heavy sense of trust, and an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
"I will now go to the palace to ask for permission to send troops to suppress the bandits."
He turned to leave, but looked back worriedly.
Lu Zhiran felt warm in her heart, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I have made all the necessary arrangements."
Xiao Yanci looked at Lin Xiao and others again, his eyes still filled with vigilance.
"Ayun, you stay and escort the county lady."
Lu Zhiran wanted to say no, but Xiao Yanci turned and left after saying this, without giving her a chance to refuse.
He Yun looked at the dozen or so burly men around him and began to feel a dull pain in his body.
But he was the most capable guard beside His Highness after all, and he could not lose His Highness, so he straightened his back and put on a dignified and solemn look.
In their previous lives, this master and servant had a bad reputation, and everyone was terrified when they heard of them.
But today, they are saving themselves regardless of the consequences. How many people can do that?
Lu Zhiran bowed slightly towards He Yun, and said sincerely, "Thank you very much for Guard He's bravery. I will always remember this kindness."
He Yun quickly dodged, "County Lady, you are embarrassing me. I was only following your orders, Your Highness. I really don't deserve your thanks. Besides, I didn't really help you..."
This person is the most likely to become his mistress, how dare he accept her gift? Let His Highness know about this and he will not deduct his monthly salary anymore.
You can take his life, but you absolutely cannot deduct his monthly salary!
Lu Zhiran remained sincere, "Although there are some misunderstandings, your determination to save me is unquestionable."
He Yun quickly seized the opportunity to improve his own prince's favorability. "If the county lady wants to thank someone, then thank my prince. Earlier, my prince saw the county lady's carriage leaving the city. He thought the road was slippery and difficult to travel on the snowy day, and feared that she might be in danger, so he immediately chased after her and wanted to escort her. If not for this, he wouldn't have..."
It won't do more harm than good.
In the end, he was so embarrassed that he shut up.
When Lu Zhiran heard this, a faint ripple appeared in her heart again.
It was a very strange feeling, a little hard to understand, but it was not a bad feeling, like a cluster of warm sunshine gently falling on her body, so comfortable.
The corners of Lu Zhiran's lips unconsciously lifted up, revealing a faint smile, "Your Highness Prince Jin is a very good person."
After hearing this, He Yun was so excited that he almost cried.
Finally someone knows how good His Highness is!
The Fang family sent out twenty good fighters, but only eight of them escaped.
They were still frightened when they thought of their brothers who died by the sword.
After returning to the city, they began to spread the news that Princess Pingle had been kidnapped by bandits.
With the deliberate promotion of some people with ulterior motives, the matter quickly spread throughout the city.
When Fang learned that this matter had been accomplished, she laughed out loud with joy three times.
"Little bitch, I want to see how she can turn things around this time!"
This time she had fallen into the hands of real bandits, and her fate was bound to be very miserable! It seemed that even God was helping them this time!
Lu Yingxi's face was distorted, she was crying and laughing at the same time, and she looked like a madman.
"Bitch, this is what she deserves!"
Fang immediately sent someone to report to the authorities.
"Xi'er, mother has avenged you. You must obey mother's instructions and leave the capital as soon as possible."
Lu Yingxi immediately shook her head, "No, I can't leave now! I want to see her rescued with my own eyes, to see her being cursed by the world, only then can I relieve the hatred in my heart!"
Fang was a little anxious. "Xi'er, don't be willful. Her matter is a foregone conclusion. Why do you have to be so obsessed with it?"
Lu Yingxi was resolute. "I only regret that I didn't get to witness her being slept with and ridden on by thousands of men. At the very least, I want to see her miserable end after being tortured! Otherwise, I won't be at peace even if I leave. Mother, it's only the beginning of February. There's still plenty of time for my wedding, so everything can be done."
Fang was afraid that something might happen if she delayed, so she tried to persuade her again and again, but Lu Yingxi was so stubborn that she refused to listen to a single word. Fang couldn't persuade her, so she had to give her an ultimatum of half a month.
Half a month later, regardless of whether Lu Zhiran was dead or alive, or rescued or not, she had to leave. Lu Yingxi readily agreed.
When Xiao Yanci returned to the city, he heard the discussions all over the city, and his face suddenly became very ugly.
These jumping clowns, just wait to be dealt with!
He rushed all the way into the palace and went straight to the imperial study.
"Father, I have an urgent matter!"
Emperor Defeng was discussing matters with his ministers when Xiao Yanci rushed in, and even the eunuchs in charge of the meeting had no time to stop him.
Emperor Defeng's face suddenly showed some displeasure.
"What's wrong with you being so impatient? Even if it's something big, you can't wait to let everyone know?"
Xiao Yanci glanced around and saw an acquaintance, Fang Chengchuan.
Emperor Defeng summoned officials from the Taichang Temple to discuss matters related to ancestral worship in the Taimiao.
Fang Chengchuan was the Minister of Taichang Temple, so naturally he was also among them.
Originally, Xiao Yanci never took the Fang family seriously, but today he looked at him a few more times.
He was of medium build, with an ordinary appearance, a mustache, and a hint of commercialism and shrewdness in his eyes.
Such an inconspicuous person is actually quite courageous.
Retracting his gaze for a moment, Xiao Yanci spoke anxiously, "Father, this is an extremely urgent matter. I simply cannot wait even a moment."
Emperor Defeng frowned, "What's the matter?"
"Just now, bandits appeared at the foot of Helian Mountain. They kidnapped a young lady who happened to be passing by and killed quite a few people!"
When Fang Chengchuan heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his slightly lowered eyes.
Emperor Defeng's face darkened. "Really?"
