Strategy? I'm at full level and criticizing like crazy, taming sickly villains

Qin Jue took a deep look at Luo Qing and said, "I'm afraid the girl is not just a female official beside the princess, right?"

Luo Qing smiled and said, "I don't have any special status, but I can guarantee that my words can represent the attitude of our Liang State Mission."

After saying that, she cupped her hands towards Qin Jue and said, "Then Xiao Qing won't bother you any more and I'll take my leave."

Xiao Qing is the pseudonym Luo Qing used when she came to Qingguo this time.

Including ten years ago, she had to accompany the bride-to-be team to Qingguo. She also came under the pseudonym of Xiao Qing, so she was not afraid of what Qin Jue would find out.

Qin Jue watched Xiao Qing leave. He stood there in the darkness for a long time without speaking, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

In Jiang Li's mind, System No. 007 was still hating that iron was not enough, "Why didn't he just agree to such a good thing? It really pissed me off!"

But Jiang Li didn't say a word, just took a deep look at Qin Jue, twitched the corners of his lips and turned to leave.

Qin Jue waited until the noisy voice of System No. 007 in his ears gradually faded away, then he turned his head and glanced in the direction where Jiang Li was just now.

The corners of his lips curled up... He thought, the time to fight back had finally arrived.

Jiang Li walked back not far when he met Lu Zhan head-on.

This time it wasn't a patrol, it was just him.

Of course, he is still dressed as a guard as always, presumably he is still on duty, and I don’t know why he came here alone.

Jiang Li felt puzzled, so he asked directly, "Master Lu, what is this..."

Lu Zhan was a little distracted when he first saw Jiang Li's dress today. He didn't react until Jiang Li opened his mouth and hurriedly saluted, "I've met Princess Changrong."

"Back to the princess, someone just said that they saw a figure here, so I asked my subordinates to come and take a look."

Um? Could it be that someone saw Qin Jue and the others?

But just now the system didn't tell her that there was anyone around.

The system is quite sensitive. Generally speaking, if there is someone within a radius of fifty meters, it can be detected in time.

What's more, Lan Yin was guarding a little further away just now, so she wouldn't be discovered, right?

Just as Jiang Li was thinking about it, he heard Lu Zhan ask again, "Since the princess is coming from that way, did you see anyone suspicious?"

Jiang Li shook his head and said, "I've never noticed it, but we are hosting a banquet for the envoys today. It's hard to make mistakes. To be on the safe side, Mr. Lu should go and have a look in person."

Lu Zhan nodded, "Then... I will resign from my humble position."

But just when he had just walked not far away, he suddenly heard the sound of breaking through the air behind him!

He looked stern, and when he suddenly turned around, he saw several sharp arrows swishing towards Jiang Li in the night!

"careful!"

Lan Yin was close and immediately pulled Jiang Li behind her. With quick eyesight and quick hands, she broke off a peach branch and knocked away a few arrows.

But she didn't notice that at this time, sharp arrows were also heading towards Jiang Li from another direction!

"Princess!"

Lu Zhan, who had just ran over, happened to see this scene, and he didn't care about anything else. He just hurriedly pulled Jiang Li into his arms, protected her and hid behind the tree.

Jiang Li's heart was pounding. Even she would be a little scared when encountering this kind of situation for the first time.

Her hands subconsciously tightened Lu Zhan's sleeves, but she did not forget to remind her, "Lanyin, hide!"

Just now, Lan Yin had to use a branch to block the arrow in order to protect Jiang Li. At this time, Jiang Li hid behind the tree, and Lu Zhan was protecting her. She didn't need to worry about it, so she hurriedly hid in another tree nearby. back.

As they took cover, the sound of arrows shooting seemed to disappear.

Even so, they did not dare to go out easily. They just kept hiding behind the tree and watched what happened.

The tree that Jiang Li and the two were hiding under was not too thick. It was somewhat crowded between the two of them, so their bodies were inevitably in contact with each other over a large area.

Jiang Li was almost completely held in Lu Zhan's arms. When everything quieted down, she could clearly hear his heartbeat.

As time passed, it seemed to be intertwined with her own... the atmosphere seemed to be somewhat ambiguous for no reason.

It was at this time that Jiang Li suddenly heard a strange voice coming from behind him.

"Princess Changrong and Mr. Lu are really enjoying themselves."

...Qin Jue.

At the same time, noises came from all directions, "There is an assassin! Someone come and catch the assassin!"

For a moment, as if something had been broken, Lu Zhan suddenly let go of Jiang Li at a loss, took half a step back and bowed to her, "If the matter is urgent, please obey the authority. If I have offended, please forgive me, princess!"

Jiang Li tilted his head, glanced at Lu Zhan, who was kneeling in front of him, and then at Qin Jue, who was standing in the shadows not far away.

She suddenly smiled and bent down to help Lu Zhan up. "It doesn't matter. Mr. Lu is here to save me. Of course I'm not that...ignorant, crossing the river and burning the bridge."

After speaking, he looked at Qin Jue and said, "Brother Emperor, are you right?"

Qin Jue narrowed his eyes, pretending he couldn't hear the sarcasm in her words, "As for the princess, of course, whatever the princess says is what she says, and I have no right to interfere."

Lu Zhan was inexplicably embarrassed, and his face felt a little hot... He was obviously trying to save people, but now he always felt as if he had become an adulterer and was caught by his original wife.

Seeing that Jiang Li had no intention of blaming him, he hurriedly said something and went to direct the guards to catch the assassin.

Lan Yin also came to Jiang Li at this time and asked nervously, "Is the princess okay?"

Jiang Li shook his head, "Nothing, Mr. Lu is well protected, let's go."

The commotion was quite big, so when Jiang Li returned to the banquet living room, everyone here had already received the news.

This incident happened in front of the envoys of Liang State, and Qing State lost face, so Emperor Qing's face obviously didn't look good at this time.

But when he saw Jiang Li coming in, he immediately looked concerned, "Li, I heard that you encountered an assassin, were you injured?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Father. I'm fine."

A father-in-law next to him smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Lu Zhanlu happened to be with the princess at the time and protected her in time, so the princess was safe and sound."

"Oh, is that so?" Emperor Qing looked at Jiang Li.

Jiang Li paused slightly and glanced at the father-in-law.

The father-in-law's eyes suddenly flickered uncomfortably, and he avoided her eyes, looking a little uneasy.

But Jiang Li withdrew his gaze, still smiling, "Thanks to Mr. Lu for saving me."

Emperor Qing nodded appreciatively and said to Lu Zhan's father, the Minister of War, "Aiqing has given birth to a good son. He always handles things appropriately. Today he saved the princess again, so he deserves a reward!"

Jiang Li ignored what happened next and just sat back in his seat silently, but he couldn't help but think about everything that happened tonight.

Who will assassinate her? Lu Zhan's appearance...is it really a coincidence?
