C119 (2/2)
Qiao Liangjin could feel that the zhenqi in her body was flowing unceasingly. Originally, it had been rather difficult for her to go down from the second floor to the fourth floor. But now, flying down from the fourth floor wasn't a problem anymore.
He didn't know how much longer he would have to practice before he could clean himself up. Thinking about how Yu Linglong was running to clean up, she suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach.
He lightly brushed past the eaves of the house and arrived at the back door of the Prime Minister's Residence within a few moments. Just as Qiao Liangjin was about to jump onto the wall, someone suddenly patted her on the shoulder.
Qiao Liangjin was shocked. She turned around and sent a palm flying.
The figure took a few steps back, dodging Qiao Liangjin's attack, and explained: ”Miss Qiao, don't... ”Your subordinate is Prince Ning's secret guard.”
Qiao Liangjin, who was about to pull out a dagger from her boot, stopped and asked in surprise, ”How did you find me?”
That figure chuckled and said, ”I heard the sound of the jade flute. I believe that something must have happened to Miss Qiao so I came over.” It just so happened that Miss Qiao went to the Mourning Court and this subordinate went with her as well. At the same time, I helped you deal with three assassins. ”
”Assassin?”
”Yes, three poor assassins. But it has already been settled. Miss Qiao, do you have any orders? ” The figure answered truthfully without the slightest feeling of wanting to claim credit.
Qiao Liangjin suddenly remembered that she played that dumb jade flute before she left and asked curiously: ”I didn't hear that flute, how did you guys hear it?”
That figure smiled and said, ”Only we can hear the sound of that jade flute.”
Qiao Liangjin suddenly remembered that she had learned that some people could specifically accept a certain frequency band and could hear sounds that others couldn't. This was probably the theory behind this.
”It's nothing. I just wanted to ask you, how is Prince Ning?” Qiao Liangjin patted her boots and stood up straight.
The figure nodded and replied, ”Your highness is well. The war is urgent now, but your subordinate will still be alerted to protect Miss.”
Qiao Liangjin then let out a sigh of relief and waved his hand, ”It's alright, go back and forth from where you came from. Don't follow me in protecting her. ”I'm fine.”
The figure smiled and said, ”Your subordinate's name is Laifu. If there is anything else you need me to do, you can play the flute and I will take my leave.”
”Laifu …” Qiao Liangjin almost couldn't hold back her laughter when she heard this name. Back in the days when she watched Zhou Xingchi's movie, this name appeared at the highest frequency. Now that she heard someone's name, Lai Fu, she almost burst out laughing.
When Qiao Liangjin returned to the Flowergold Pavilion, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, causing the little fox to transform into its human form. It then stared at Qiao Liangjin, who was laughing so hard that she was about to roll around, with a mysterious look in her eyes.
Qiao Liangjin looked at the two goblins and laughed non-stop. She kept laughing until tears were about to fall and only then did she stop. She rubbed his eyes and said, ”Before, I … Did I tell you... Only the dog's name is Laifu... Today, she met a dark guard who also called him Fu … ”Hahahahaha.”
Although the two little imps didn't understand the situation, they were amused by Qiao Liangjin's laughter and started laughing as well.
After the three maids had all arrived, Qiao Liangjin started to talk about the origin of the name 'Laifu' vividly. It wasn't until everyone understood what was going on that they started to laugh along with her.
Qiao Liangjin laid on the bed and used the wind from her palm to extinguish the candle. She thought about Bai Wuyi's somewhat sorrowful words. If he was not here today, he would look at the moon and miss him … Why was Bai Wuyun always so sad, why did he always feel that he wouldn't be able to live for long?
Bai Wu knew martial arts. She wasn't surprised at all, but what surprised her was that since he knew martial arts, why was his body so weak? As long as Hong Chen saw her, he would have an expression that would make his want to say something but was unable to.
He turned over and closed his eyes. 'Forget it. I'll just leave the future matters to you.'
On New Year's Eve, there were red lanterns hanging from the top of the house, making the place seem exceptionally festive. Qiao Liangjin put on the new clothes that Guo Caiting had prepared for him, and went to pay her respects to the madame.
The madame's body was getting worse and worse. She could only lean against the bed and rest. She didn't even have the strength to go down to the ground. Qiao Liangjin's lips curled up slightly. There were a few poisons in the world that she did not know about.
She had used a handkerchief to press Tian Zhu's powder on the Old Mistress' face that day. As time passed, the Old Mistress' body would slowly weaken, but no one expected that it was herself who had poisoned her. The Old Mistress' aggressive face made her want to vomit whenever she thought about it.
Arriving at the madame's door, he heard her berating someone else. This time, the one she berated was actually Qiao Maoshan's concubine.
Qiao Liangjin did not have a deep impression of Qiao Maoshan's concubine and had always heard that she lived in a different house. Lin Fanli was a tigress and she had already allowed Qiao Maoshan to marry, but it was definitely not easy for her to enter.
He had long since heard that this concubine had an enchanting figure and was originally the servant girl beside the madame. She had used a great number of methods to seduce Qiao Mao Shan and became a concubine.
To be able to see this legendary little white flower this year was truly a blessing in disguise.
Wen'er, who was standing outside the door, said in a high-pitched voice, ”Eldest Miss has arrived.”
The door opened, and Yun Chu smiled happily and said, ”Greetings, young miss. Greetings, young miss.”
