The guards of the Marquis' Mansion are not there just to eat and do nothing.

They received monthly wages from the Marquis's Mansion, so their martial arts skills were naturally much higher than those of ordinary guards.

Therefore, the killers did not dare to approach rashly.

Afraid of being discovered by them.

Although they have more people, it is not difficult to capture Mingyao from them.

But the master had specifically instructed not to alert the enemy.

In order to avoid any mistakes or complications, the killers naturally had to look for a good opportunity to kill Miss Ming Liu secretly without alerting anyone as much as possible.

They just went all the way over.

The streets became more and more lively, with more and more people coming.

Finally, it stopped in the downtown area.

"How to do?"

The assassin leader felt annoyed when he saw a woman in pink wearing a veiled hat getting out of the carriage.

This matter has been delayed for too long.

Having finally found an opportunity, they naturally cannot miss it.

But if he wanted to take action here, the patrolling officers and soldiers and the Five City Commanders would not just sit there and do nothing, so he could only say, "Wait a minute."

……

The two guards followed Mingyao into the shop.

Mingyao is a frequent visitor here, so naturally she doesn't need to pick things downstairs.

When the innkeeper saw Qian Shuang beside her, he knew who the visitor was. He smiled and greeted her: "Sixth Miss is here."

"It just so happens that a new batch of goods has arrived in the store recently. Please come upstairs."

Mingyao nodded to him.

Just as she was about to go upstairs, she saw two guards following her. Ming Yao didn't say anything, but quietly pulled Qian Shuang's sleeve.

Master and servant for many years.

Qian Shuang naturally knew what her master meant.

She stopped and stayed behind, turned to the two guards with swords, and said bluntly: "The young lady wants to go upstairs to see something, and you guys are following her like this?"

The two men were ordered by Ming Yuandu to keep a close watch on the Sixth Miss.

But looking at the ugly face of the maid in front of him.

The shopkeeper next to them thought they were afraid of something happening, so he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, guys. Our store is very safe. Nothing will happen."

That's it.

The two guards looked at each other.

Although the Marquis asked them to follow the Sixth Miss carefully, he also told them not to alert the enemy so as to prevent the Sixth Miss from becoming desperate.

Now, everything has to do with the marriage between the princess and the prince, and we must not cause any trouble for the princess.

After all, this shop is here. Is it possible that the Sixth Miss could run away?

With this in mind, they decided not to follow and instead bowed in Mingyao's direction and said, "We will be downstairs protecting her. Miss Six, please call us if you have any questions."

Mingyao said nothing and followed the shopkeeper upstairs.

The two guards were quite alert, fearing that something might really happen, so one of them stood guard outside the door while the other went behind.

The killers originally wanted to sneak into the shop secretly and kill Mingyao.

Seeing this scene, I could only give up in anger.

"It's really too much. This rich family is very strict."

Ming Yao didn't know there was another wave of assassins outside. She walked up the stairs and was about to ask the shopkeeper if anyone was coming today when she saw a servant coming down from upstairs. As he walked down, he complained in a low voice, "People from this palace are so picky. A palace maid has so many requirements. How picky must those ladies and masters be."

He didn't see Mingyao.

Otherwise, I wouldn't dare say this in front of guests.

The shopkeeper's expression changed: "You bastard, what nonsense are you talking about!"

The servant heard the voice, looked over, and immediately changed his expression: "Please forgive me, my lord, please forgive me!"

The shopkeeper also quickly complained to Mingyao.

Mingyao already had an idea in her mind. She knew that the "picky palace maid" was undoubtedly Gu Jiarou. Knowing that Gu Jiarou had arrived, Mingyao's uneasy heart felt much more relieved.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay." She said even softer than before.

After saying that, he did not let the shopkeeper follow him: "It just so happens that I have not been to the palace for a long time, and I don't know who is coming today, so the shopkeeper does not need to follow me. I will go over to say hello. If there is anything I need, I will call you again."

The shopkeeper naturally didn't say anything. He agreed and respectfully sent Mingyao upstairs.

Mingyao took Qianshuang upstairs.

At this moment, there was only one private room in the shop occupied.

She listened to the complaints coming from inside, so she went forward and knocked on the door, then called out in a low voice, "Princess."

The door opened quickly.

Gu Jiarou's face appeared behind the door.

She had a smile on her face, obviously thinking that Ming Jingheng had come. But when she saw that only Ming Yao and his servant were outside, the smile on her face and the "Brother Jingheng" that was about to come out of her mouth were immediately replaced by dissatisfaction.

She didn't even look at Mingyao and walked straight into the house.

After sitting down, he looked at Ming Yao with dissatisfaction and said, "You still knew to come. You made an appointment with me, but you came later than me. Ming Liu, you are really capable!"

Qian Shuang was a little afraid of Princess An Cheng.

Ming Yao was dissatisfied with Gu Jiarou's attitude, but she still had to rely on Gu Jiarou, so no matter how dissatisfied she was, she could only greet her with a smile.

She asked Qianshuang to stay outside and went in by herself.

The door was closed again by Qianshuang.

After Mingyao entered, she bowed to Gu Jiarou first.

"Princess, please don't blame me. It's inconvenient for me to go out recently, otherwise I would not dare to keep you waiting for a long time."

Gu Jiarou left the palace today not to argue with Mingyao about these things.

"Okay, I don't want to hear you say this."

After she said this impatiently, she asked Mingyao again: "Where is Brother Jingheng? Didn't you say you had a way to make me marry Brother Jingheng?"

Speaking of Ming Jingheng, Gu Jiarou's face couldn't help but turn red again.

Ming Yao sat next to Gu Jiarou and asked instead of answering, "Princess, do you really want to marry my brother?"

When Gu Jiarou heard this, she became annoyed again.

"What useless nonsense you are talking about. If I didn't want to marry Brother Jing Heng, why would I go to so much trouble to leave the palace to see you today?"

She looked at him coldly.

After he finished speaking, he suddenly narrowed his eyes at Ming Yao, and his voice became much gloomier than before: "Ming Liu, are you kidding me?"

Ming Yao hurriedly said, "How could I have the guts to bluff you?"

"Of course I really want to help the princess, and I really hope that the princess will become my sister-in-law, but..."

Gu Jiarou asked hurriedly: "Just what?"

Ming Yao looked hesitant and glanced at Gu Jiarou.

Gu Jiarou didn't have a good temper to begin with, and she was also impatient. Seeing Mingyao hesitating, she became annoyed again.

"Why are you hesitating? Hurry up and tell me!"

Mingyao seemed to be frightened and dared not hide it anymore.

But looking at Gu Jiarou's expression, he still hesitated: "Princess, you also know that my brother feels guilty towards Princess Changle..."

I don’t know why she mentioned Mingjin at this time.

"so?"

Gu Jiarou asked with a frown, her already ugly expression became even uglier when she heard the name Mingjin.

She is most annoyed with this woman now.

I was slapped by my mother not long ago, and it was because of her.

Ming Yao did not pause at this time, and continued speaking following Gu Jiarou's words.

"The princess and Princess Changle don't get along. I know all this. Even for the princess, I won't marry you."

When Gu Jiarou heard this, she immediately exploded.

But this time she was not targeting Mingyao.

"I knew that bitch was born to be incompatible with me! No wonder Brother Jingheng has been ignoring me recently, it turns out it's because of that bitch!" She said this and was about to lose her temper again.

His hand had already picked up something on the table and was about to smash it.

But Mingyao was afraid of alarming the people below, so she naturally couldn't let Gu Jiarou do this. She quickly snatched the teacup from her hand and continued to persuade them in a gentle voice.

"Princess, don't get yourself hurt by being angry."

"In fact, I know that my brother has a princess in his heart. Before the princess came back, my brother often mentioned the princess to me."

When Gu Jiarou heard her say this, her anger became a little sweeter.

Just thinking of Ming Jin who was standing in the middle, she felt angry again, her face turned green and red, but looking at Ming Yao, she was determined and asked directly: "What can you do?"

Since Mingyao called her out, she must have a good idea.

Mingyao didn't hide it.

"I do have a plan, but I don't know if the princess dares to do it."

Gu Jiarou sneered: "What am I afraid of?"

She raised her chin, very proud. From childhood to adulthood, there was nothing she dared not do: "Stop hesitating, speak quickly, I don't have that much patience."

She said impatiently.

Ming Yao glanced at Gu Jiarou, then suddenly leaned over and whispered something in her ear.

Even Gu Jiarou couldn't help but change her expression when she heard this.

After all, she was only sixteen this year. No matter how arrogant and domineering she was, she had actually not experienced much.

After listening to Mingyao's words, her little face turned red, and her eyes were filled with disbelief as she looked at Mingyao.

"you you--"

She didn't expect that Mingyao's idea was this.

After realizing what was happening, Gu Jiarou's first reaction was to get angry. She wanted to scold Ming Yao for being so absurd.

But before she could speak.

Ming Yao seemed to know what she was going to say and spoke to Gu Jiarou first.

"I know this method is not good, but Princess, do you think there is any better way besides this?"

"Given my brother's personality, no matter how much he likes the princess, it is impossible for him to marry you under the current circumstances. Or does the princess intend to make friends with Princess Changle? If so, then I really don't need to come today." She said lightly.

Mingyao knew Gu Jiarou's character too well.

How could she, who had been spoiled since childhood and had a spoiled personality, let herself bow down to someone else? And this someone else was the person she hated the most.

Sure enough, when she said this, Gu Jiarou's expression became even uglier.

Ming Yao continued to talk to Gu Jiarou, "Princess, don't worry. After all, only you and your brother know about this. When you get married, you will probably feel lucky to talk about this."

"Lovers eventually get married, luckily they didn't miss each other."

In fact, Gu Jiarou was already somewhat moved by Ming Yao's words, but she did not get angry again, but looked hesitant.

"But……"

She said: "You also said that Brother Jingheng refused to marry me because of that bitch, so how can I make him marry me..."

Gu Jiarou was too embarrassed to say the following words.

But when Mingyao looked at her like this, he knew that he had won the bet.

She handed Gu Jiarou the sleeping pills that she had asked Qian Shuang to prepare for her a few days ago.

Gu Jiarou reached out and took it: "What is this?"

Ming Yao only lowered her voice and uttered two words: "Drug."
