Quick Travel: The Story of Your Highness's Pampering of Her Husband
Chapter 116 The replaced noble lady (41)
After lunch break, Xuanyuan Xi quietly walked out of the room without waking her lover.
She replaced Xiao Yi and went to teach Nangong Rui, and continued the interrupted class in the morning.
Nangong Rui wanted to ask what happened in the morning, but before he could speak, he was stopped by the handout thrown at him.
Xuanyuan Xi stayed impatiently with Nangong Rui. He spoke quickly and without stopping, and then began to see off the guests.
"Master Wang, how much do you dislike seeing Gu?"
Xuanyuan Xi did not answer, but stared at the other party expressionlessly.
"..."
Nangong Rui immediately packed up his things and left.
Violent women cannot be offended.
Xuanyuan Xi returned to the backyard with satisfaction, lay down next to her lover, and used her inner strength to comb the bones and muscles of the sleeping man.
Suddenly, she frowned, and Xuanyuan Xi felt that besides the secret guard sent by the Dog Prince to monitor, there was a new breath around her.
As soon as her mind changed, she knew who sent that person.
It's just that the man just walked around the house and then became invisible. He didn't seem to launch an attack immediately, so Xuanyuan Xi simply ignored it.
The soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth. Let's wait until the time comes and see what that person wants to do.
Xuanyuan Xi discovered early on that the development of martial arts in this world was still in its infancy, and both martial arts and mental skills were far inferior to those in Fengyan Kingdom.
Therefore, after more than ten years of continuous training, it is not an exaggeration to say that her martial arts skills are unparalleled in the world. She is just a little assassin, and she doesn't take it seriously at all.
At midnight, when everyone fell asleep, the man named No. [-] finally took action.
He first put smoke into the house and listened carefully to the movements inside. After confirming that the target person was completely asleep, he quietly turned over and entered.
Lifting the bed sheet, I saw a man and a woman sleeping deeply together upstairs.
Although he was shocked for a moment by the resemblance between the other party and his master, the next moment, No. [-] raised his dagger expressionlessly and slashed the woman's face cleanly.
But what happened was counterproductive. The woman who had been sleeping with her eyes closed suddenly opened her eyes, attacked his wrist with one hand, and tapped his acupuncture points with the other.
The dagger fell off the quilt, and No. [-] was also immobilized, unable to move.
Xuanyuan Xi stood up, carried the man with one hand and walked out. After rising and falling, he stopped directly in front of the prince's secret guard.
Without waiting for the other party to react, he said coldly: "This person is here to assassinate me. Take him back and see if you can pry out any information."
After saying that, he left, leaving behind the secret guard brother and Wooden Man No. [-], who stared at each other with big eyes.
The secret guard understood that Mrs. Ji had probably already noticed his presence, and also knew who the master behind him was.
The fact that she was able to accurately find her hiding place showed that Mrs. Ji's martial arts skills were far superior to his.
He simply stopped watching in vain and rushed back to His Highness the Crown Prince with the man in black to report.
Because His Highness the Crown Prince had previously stated that all news about the Ji Mansion must be reported to him as soon as possible, so the secret guard led people directly outside the Crown Prince's bedroom.
Nangong Rui was suddenly woken up by his personal eunuch in the middle of the night. He had no so-called anger and was very sober. He had experienced this situation many times in the capital. Whenever something important happened, his highness, the Crown Prince, would be woken up. Get up and go deal with government affairs.
Nangong Rui asked calmly: "What happened?"
When he heard that the eunuch said that the secret guard under Ji's supervision had something to report, Nangong Rui stood up directly and called people into the room for questioning.
The secret guard knelt on the ground and recounted exactly what had just happened.
Nangong Rui's expression was unpredictable. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Take the person down and interrogate him strictly. Also, from now on, there will be no need to send people to the Ji Mansion to keep an eye on him."
"Yes."
The secret guard took the order and retreated with the people.
Nangong Rui did not continue to sleep, but got up and went to the study.
He sat on the chair and looked through the pile of handouts on the table, frowning and saying nothing.
It wasn't until dawn that Nangong Rui walked out of the study, with that smile that made people feel like spring breeze again on his face.
After washing up and having breakfast, he took a carriage to Ji's Mansion as usual.
Last night, Nangong Rui thought about it for a long time.
Ji Chenyi and his wife not only have amazing talents, but also have peerless martial arts. They are far beyond his control.
Logically, such people should be killed as early as possible to prevent them from becoming a threat.
But after recalling everything that happened during this period, what those two people had been doing, and the prophecy that he had already believed in, Nangong Rui was very sure that the couple had no ill intentions towards Tian Yanchao.
They don't even have any intention of entering or leaving the court. They don't care about fame and wealth, but they care about the people of the world.
In this case, as the prince, why can't Nangong Rui tolerate them?
After a while, the carriage arrived at Ji's mansion.
Now that Nangong Rui had made up his mind, he stopped thinking about it and went straight to the study.
Xiao Yi and Xuanyuan Xi were sitting on chairs eating melon seeds. When Nangong Rui came in, they didn't mean to stand up and salute. Instead, they invited him to sit down together.
Nangong Rui wanted to talk to Xuanyuan Xi about what happened last night, and the secret guard came to report it this morning. Although he could not pry the assassin's mouth open, one thing was certain that the other party was a secret guard trained by the Wen family.
Who in the Wen family would send someone to assassinate the real eldest lady "Wen Xixi"?You don't need to think about it to know that there is only one person, and that is the fake Zhu Xiaohua who has just arrived in Nan Province.
However, before Nangong Rui could speak, Xuanyuan Xi waved his hand to stop him.
"I know very well about the assassins. I left him to you just because Master thought it would be troublesome for me to deal with him."
Nangong Rui: "..."
shameless!
He no longer paid attention to Xuanyuan Xi, but looked at Xiao Yi with some doubts, and asked: "Master Ji, aren't we going to give lectures today?"
"Wait a minute, there will be a good show coming soon."
The answer was not Xiao Yi, but Xuanyuan Xi.
After hearing this, Nangong Rui stopped asking any more questions and sat down to eat melon seeds together.
Less than half an hour later, the maid came to report that the eldest lady of the Wen family had come to the door again.
Xuanxi was not willing to move the place, so he ordered: "Bring the person directly to the study."
"Yes, ma'am."
The servant girl backed away.
A few minutes later, Zhu Xiaohua entered the study room with happy steps.
No. [-] didn't come back last night, but she didn't pay too much attention because she didn't think No. [-] could not complete such a small thing.
Maybe she was so obsessed with seeing Wen Xixi break down and cry that she ignored the bad premonition in her heart.
Now, Zhu Xiaohua was dumbfounded.
Because as soon as she entered the door, she saw Xuanyuan Xi sitting on a chair, eating melon seeds. There was no scar on his face, and he was looking at her with a smile.
Zhu Xiaohua was shocked, how could this be possible?
Why is there nothing wrong with her face?
Did No. [-] betray me?
Before Zhu Xiaohua could question, Xuanyuan Xi stood up suddenly, stared at the other person again and again, and then suddenly covered his mouth with his hands and exclaimed: "How is that possible?"
Zhu Xiaohua knew that she was surprised that her face was as pink as ever.
Seeing the disbelief on the other person's face, her bad mood improved a little, but it still couldn't make up for the regret of not being able to see that bitch disfigured.
Knowing that there was no good show to watch today, Zhu Xiaohua stopped staying.
"Brother Prince, Sissi remembered that there is one more important matter that has not been dealt with, so she will leave for now."
Now she needs to figure out what happened?Where did No. [-] go?
Seeing Zhu Xiaohua leave quickly, Xuanyuan Xi squeezed her lover's little hand. Xiao Yi immediately understood and asked: "Madam, why were you so surprised when you saw Miss Wen just now?"
Xuanyuan Xi did not answer, but pondered for a moment before looking at Nangong Rui with a solemn expression and said, "Your Highness, there must be something strange about that Zhu Xiaohua. No wonder she is a country-stealing witch."
Nangong Rui became serious when he heard this and asked, "What does Master Wang mean? What's so strange about that woman?"
Xuanyuan Xi said a little shyly: "That woman scared my husband yesterday, so I put some medicine on her face. This medicine will not kill people, but will only make the skin of those who come into contact covered with red acne. And it will disappear automatically after seven days without any impact on people.”
Nangong Rui, Xiao Yi, and the silently eavesdropping system:...
Just, very speechless.
Ignoring everyone's reaction, Xuanyuan Xi continued: "This medicine has no solution in the world."
Nangong Rui reacted the fastest and asked directly: "But what about Zhu Xiaohua's face..."
"Yes, that's why I said there's something strange about her."
Xuanyuan Xi talked nonsense seriously, "Your Highness should know how far our medical skills are. If I say there is no antidote, there is absolutely no antidote."
"That Zhu Xiaohua's medical skills cannot be better than mine, so how did she regain her appearance overnight?"
"Also, did the dignitaries she treated in the past also use strange methods?"
"She is the country-stealing witch predicted by Master. Your Highness must be on your guard, right?"
Step by step, Nangong Rui was guided to pay attention to Zhu Xiaohua's special features. Nangong Rui really fell into deep thought, and went straight back to find a way to deal with the matter without mentioning going to class.
When Xiao Yi saw the person walking away, she hugged Xuanyuan Xi and asked: "Xixi, do you... want the prince to discover the spiritual spring water on Zhu Xiaohua's body?"
"Yes. Let the prince, the son of destiny, deal with the destroyer, which will save trouble and worry."
Xuanyuan Xi admitted frankly.
The system couldn't help but interrupt: [Host, you really know how to use resources reasonably. 】
"Easy to say, easy to say."
She replaced Xiao Yi and went to teach Nangong Rui, and continued the interrupted class in the morning.
Nangong Rui wanted to ask what happened in the morning, but before he could speak, he was stopped by the handout thrown at him.
Xuanyuan Xi stayed impatiently with Nangong Rui. He spoke quickly and without stopping, and then began to see off the guests.
