The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Because something big was bound to happen today, Shen Qinglan and Huo Zhanting had already warned Yan Ge'er and others early in the morning to stay at home and not come out.

To be on the safe side, they even asked the old princess and Huo Qiyu to stay in the mansion to look after the little ones, for fear that they would act naughty and run around again.

But despite all the precautions, it still couldn't be prevented.

Shen Qinglan's face turned pale, her legs went weak, and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Huo Zhanting caught her in time.

It's not Shen Qinglan's fault. The reason is that the three little ones mistakenly entered the place where the Ninth Prince and his men buried explosives. If the Ninth Prince and his men ignited the fire, the three little ones would definitely die.

Although Huo Zhanting was also anxious, he remained calm. Seeing Shen Qinglan like this, he quickly whispered to comfort her:

"Don't worry, I'll take people to rescue them right away."

"I'll go as well."

"But……"

"I'm worried."

Shen Qinglan was persistent, and Huo Zhanting had no other choice but to nod and instruct Li Wu and the others:

"Li Wu, you continue to maintain order at the scene."

"Yes!"

"Ren Wei, go and inform Lu Huaizhu immediately and tell him that there might be spies in the Jingji Guards."

"Yes!"

After explaining to Li Wu and Ren Wei, Huo Zhanting looked at Lu Jinghuai again, and Lu Jinghuai immediately said:

"The ceremony will proceed as usual, just leave it to me."

Upon hearing this, Huo Zhanting nodded, then took Shen Qinglan's hand, pointed to a group of people, and left quickly.

Lu Jinghuai looked at the backs of Huo Zhanting and the others as they left, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

Hope all goes well…

Gu Junyuan was very nervous after she knew something was going to happen today.

For no reason, Gu Junyuan felt that something was going to happen.

She wanted to find Lu Huaizhu and explain a few things to him so that she could feel at ease.

Coincidentally, Gu Junyuan soon saw Lu Huaizhu walking through the crowd in front.

Her eyes lit up and she quickly followed.

Nangong Mingyue was originally with Gu Junyuan. When she saw Gu Junyuan leave, she hurriedly called out:

"Sister Gu, where are you going?"

"Sister Nangong, I saw Lu Huaizhu. I'll be back soon."

Gu Junyuan left only one sentence and ran away.

Nangong Mingyue shook her head helplessly and sighed:

"Each of them only have their lover in their heart..."

After a pause, Nangong Mingyue glanced at Feng Yuwan who was standing beside her and eating snacks obediently, and said with a smile in her eyes:

"Sister Feng is a good girl. She doesn't think about men all the time."

While eating the fruit plate that Lu Jinghuai had specially given her, Feng Yuwan raised her eyes and blinked innocently.

At this time, Gu Junyuan followed Lu Huaizhu's figure all the way, but the other party's speed was so fast that he disappeared in a turn.

Gu Junyuan stood at the entrance of the alley, looking around anxiously, but at this moment, she suddenly heard the sound of fighting coming from a yard in front.

Hearing the noise, Gu Junyuan rushed up without hesitation and pushed the door open.

As soon as she entered the door, Gu Junyuan was frightened by the scene in front of her.

I saw a guard from the Jingji Guard pressing Lu Huaizhu to the ground, and the dagger in his hand had already pierced an inch into Lu Huaizhu's chest!

Lu Huaizhu's face was flushed, and he was holding the guard's hand tightly, trying his best to stop him.

Although Lu Huaizhu was a first-rate archer, he was just a scholar after all. How could he compare with a martial artist like him? Naturally, it was very difficult.

Upon seeing this, Gu Junyuan quickly looked around and saw a broom nearby. She quickly picked it up, rushed towards the guard, and hit him hard on the head!

"Let him go, let him go!!!"

Gu Junyuan screamed and shouted while fighting.

The noise startled not only the guard but also Lu Huaizhu.

But there was one guard who couldn't withstand it. He fixed his eyes and knocked Gu Junyuan to the ground with just one elbow.

Gu Junyuan groaned and her face turned pale in pain.

Lu Huaizhu also took this opportunity to kick the guard away, then hurriedly stepped forward to help Gu Junyuan up, and said anxiously:

"Why are you here? Are you okay?"

"I, I'm fine."

Gu Junyuan was also frightened and shook her head. She saw that the guard had already climbed up from the ground and hurriedly pulled Lu Huaizhu away:

"Run quickly!"

But after they had run only two steps, the door was closed by the stone kicked by the guard.

The two turned around and saw that the guard had stabbed at them again with a dagger.

Gu Junyuan got anxious and subconsciously hugged Lu Huaizhu, then turned around and pressed Lu Huaizhu against the door panel.

A muffled groan was heard, but Gu Junyuan did not feel any pain. She looked up in surprise and saw a smile flash in Lu Huaizhu's eyes.

"Yuan'er actually loves me so much?"

"you……"

Gu Junyuan was a little surprised and wanted to scold Lu Huaizhu, but saw that the other person's face was pale.

She turned her head suddenly and saw that the dagger that was supposed to stab her was actually held tightly by Lu Huaizhu.

His palms were covered in blood, which dripped onto the ground, a shocking sight.

The assassin's face suddenly turned cold, and when he wanted to use more force, his pupils suddenly shrank.

I saw a hairpin piercing his neck fiercely! Gu Junyuan, who was holding the hairpin, was afraid that the other party still had the strength to resist, so she gritted her teeth, pulled out the hairpin, and stabbed it again.

After stabbing several times in succession, the assassin's neck was almost pierced into a sieve. Lu Huaizhu then used his other intact hand to hold Gu Junyuan's wrist and chuckled weakly:

"Okay, it's okay, it's okay."

When Gu Junyuan reacted, she found that the man had his eyes wide open and slowly fell to the ground without a sound. The hairpin in his hand also fell to the ground out of fear.

It was Gu Junyuan's first time killing someone, and her whole body was trembling, but Lu Huaizhu opened his arms and gently embraced her in his arms, saying softly:

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Gu Junyuan hugged Lu Huaizhu's waist back, buried her head in his arms, and said in a trembling voice:

"Fortunately, fortunately you are okay."

She didn't even dare to think about it. If she hadn't chased him just now, wouldn't Lu Huaizhu be dead by now?

Lu Huaizhu smiled and said in a weak voice:

"Yuan'er, listen carefully. You should know Li Wu from the Jingji Guard. Go find him and tell him that there is evidence of his rebellion in the west wing of the Ninth Prince's mansion. Tell him to go quickly."

Gu Junyuan let go of Lu Huaizhu and said with a hint of worry in her eyes:

"Let's go together."

"I, I have no strength left. You go inform him first and then send someone to rescue me."

"But……"

"Be obedient...there is no time to lose."

Gu Junyuan saw that although Lu Huaizhu looked pale, he was awake after all. She nodded without delay and said:

"Okay, I'll go right away! Wait for me."

Just as Gu Junyuan stood up to leave, Lu Huaizhu grabbed her hand.

"what happened?"

Gu Junyuan turned around and looked at Lu Huaizhu with some worry in her eyes.

"It's nothing, just be careful. And...Yuan'er, I am so lucky to have you in my life."

Gu Junyuan blushed and spat:

"Now that you know, just treat me well from now on."

"it is good."

Lu Huaizhu smiled and let go of Gu Junyuan's hand. Gu Junyuan didn't think much about it and hurried back in the direction she came from.

Gu Junyuan didn't see that as soon as she left, Lu Huaizhu gave a bitter smile and slowly fell to the ground.

If you look closely, you can see that the wounds on his chest and hands are oozing with black blood, as if the assassin had smeared poison on the dagger.

Lu Huaizhu felt a little regretful.

I thought that after all the misunderstandings, he and Gu Junyuan would be able to be together soon, but now...
