Chapter 266 (2/2)
”Oho,” Ning Xiaoyao tugged at his hand ”Look, Lady Xu's entered the bedcha his head out of the sleeve to peek Lou Zigui glanced at Lady Xu walking inside before turning to Ning Xiaoyao to speak, only to catch sight of Oil Jar instead His first instinct was to smack theXiaoyao hastily looked down and stroked his head ”What's wrong?”
”He wants to beat ui
Ning Xiaoyao looked back and saw Lou Zigui's fists ”Don't,” she said in a hurry ”This is ui
”Say hello,” Ning Xiaoyao said as she patted Oil Jar's head
”Squeak~” Oil Jar gave a friendly hello towards Lou Zigui He pro a cat at the sa is thinking
”This is a bit far from the main event Supre Xiaoyao before hauling him handily over Since all of the doctors and Grand Preceptor's servants were clustered in front of the bedroom door to listen for sounds inside, none of the Xiaoyao quickly lifted a roof tile and sprawled doith Oil Jar to peer inside the roo eyes
”……” said Lou Zigui
Inside, Lady Xu couldn't help but feel that her general didn't look like a deadnormal Was this really someone at death's door?
”Husband?” Lady Xu cried
Chen Lu reer to test his breathing, then raised her voice ”Husband?”
Chen Lu's eyelids fluttered, but he still didn't wake Lady Xu pulled aside his covers There was a strong stench offrom Chen Lu's body, but once she undid his clothes, she discovered that he wasn't wounded at all!
”Why isn't Chen Lu waking up yet?” Lou Zigui asked by Ning Xiaoyao's side
”He will very soon,” Ning Xiaoyao was staring fixedly at the scene
”Chen Lu!” Lady Xu shouted before she shoved the round Outside, the listeners heard Lady Xu's shout and assumed that Great General Chen had passed away Quickly, some of the Grand Preceptor's men ran off to report the news to their master while the rest followed the doctors into the room Some of the more clever, quick-witted servants anted to curry favor with their superiors were already bursting into tears before they ever entered the roo for the Great General The rest picked up on the sobs and joined in naturally
Inside the roohtshi+rt on, looked at Lady Xu in confusion
”Great General, ah, sobb—” The cryingup, coht
”W-why did you co his voice, htened to death This doesn't look like his last flash of lucidity before i death! The doctors ran to the bed and nearly crowded Lady Xu to the side Eyes wide, they stared at Chen Lu and saw his spotless skin and bare thighs The old wounds there had all disappeared! Some of them even reached out to shove hiy, he didn't dodge in time and fell sideways from the force At this, the doctors all saw his bare back, the skin cons of injury…
On the roof, Oil JarXiaoyao, ”Xiaoyao, quick Look at Lady Xu”
Ning Xiaoyao glanced over and saw that the wo ready to eat someone whole, or skin theui added, ”Lady Xu's got a sword on her”
”…” said Ning Xiaoyao So she's going to hack them instead?!
”How could this be?!” one of the doctor finally shouted None of the others could speak They couldn't have all been experiencing the saht? That was impossible Chen Lu sat back up, somewhat back to his senses When he recalled how he'd been first shot, then sliced by the Lord Protector, he quickly looked down at his body and found the whole situation absurd!
He was perfectly fine without a speck of injury to his skin Now thoroughly confused, he began to wonder whether he'd dreamed up the murder attempt in the first place
”Shenyan, ah!” Outside the doors, Grand Preceptor Xie's sorrowful voice floated in ”Shenyan!”
Ning Xiaoyao and Oil Jar both held their breaths Even Lou Zigui had stopped to fixate on the scene inside the roo to get a handle on the situation Even if he wanted to speak, he didn't knohat to say
”Heh,” Lady Xu chuckled coldly Are they taking me for a monkey to be fooled?
”Shenyan, how could you leave just like that? You…” Grand Preceptor Xie was in the throes of la as he hurried into the rooht before him
Just as the bastard that told uaranteed to die?!
Shenyan (慎言) – together this means ”discretion in speech” ↩
