"What's wrong with me?" Yan Ling said with a pale face.
"She looks like a flower and jade, and looks like it will break at the touch of a touch. I don't know who is protecting whom." Shen Xingwan said with a venomous tongue.
After saying that, he turned around and went to find the second master without any intention of further talking to him.
Yan Ling was so aggrieved that he didn't move. It was estimated that the impact on his waist was serious and the pain was so severe that he couldn't bear it anymore.
Dongqing gave him a cold look, "Pretty face..."
Yan Ling almost couldn't hold it back and wanted Dongqing to die suddenly on the spot.
After both of them left, Yan Ling was helped up by his subordinates.
The battle raged until the sky turned dim, and the water bandits looked at Princess Qinghe's boat unwillingly.
"Brother, please retreat. This time we have hit a brick wall. The opponent is too strong, and there are experts here." The subordinate advised.
Several boats that were originally intended to use fire attack throwers and fireballs were attacked first.
They lost the most advantageous attack method on the water, and it was difficult to attack by force.
"It's crazy!" the water bandit boss said unwillingly, "The combat effectiveness is much stronger than expected."
Finally, before the sun rose, I reluctantly retreated.
"If I lose this opportunity, I don't know how long it will take." The man sighed.
"She's just a princess. It may not be useful if she is caught." The woman comforted her.
In the end, the group of people quickly retreated. The man looked back at the royal flag on the ship. He would get back what the royal family owed him sooner or later.
The sun rose, and the river finally calmed down after a fierce battle all night.
Shen Xingwan took a look and saw many corpses floating in the river, and the surface of the river was dyed red.
The fleet stopped in place to deal with the aftermath.
News of the assassination of Princess Qinghe Fenglindu spread quickly.
The nearest magistrate of Pingliang received this news as soon as he woke up, and he was so frightened that he lost all sleep.
He rushed over with his men. If something happened to Princess Qinghe on the territory under his jurisdiction, his head would be at risk.
Because of this accident, the ship docked at Pingliang Ferry.
Everyone disembarked and rested.
Tinglan, the palace maid next to the princess, came to see the old lady in person and said, "The princess invites the old lady to disembark and rest with her. It's safe to live together."
The old lady said, "The princess is interested. Please thank the lady officer for me."
Probably because he had been busy all night, Shangguan Tinglan's face was not very good, and he staggered when he walked to the door.
Shen Xingwan stretched out his hand to support her, "Female officer, please be careful."
Shangguan Tinglan smiled at her and said, "Thank you, madam."
In the end, the Shen family members took advantage of the old lady's favor and followed Princess Qinghe to live in a courtyard provided by the prefect of Pingliang.
The courtyard for the princess is naturally not bad, it has everything.
Everyone went back to their rooms to wash up, eat, and rest. Princess Qinghe did not show up from the beginning to the end.
In the villa where the princess lived, Princess Qinghe asked with a tired face, "Any new discoveries?"
The left commander of the Yulin Army said respectfully, "The person coming here should be Yunzhong Yanlindu, a mountain bandit who has become famous in the Liangping area in recent years."
They were cunning and rarely had conflicts with the government, so the Pingliang government always turned a blind eye to them.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a big deal that the prefect of Pingliang's hair almost turned gray.
"Why would you attack this princess?" Princess Qinghe was a little confused.
Ordinary bandits would not take the initiative to attack the royal team if they were not crazy. They would simply dig their own graves.
Commander Zuo did not speak, but said, "There should be a third party at the scene. From the boats left behind by the water bandits, we found that the people on several boats were killed by masters. If my subordinates guessed correctly, those boats were
Used to launch fire attacks."
Princess Qinghe chuckled lightly, "It is indeed the Shen family. No matter how long it has been, they are still so ruthless and accurate in their attacks."
Commander Zuo lowered his head and said, "If the princess has no other instructions, I will retire from my humble position first."
It would be better for him not to get involved in this kind of high-sect clan topic.
Princess Qinghe looked at Commander Zuo's disappearing back and sneered, "He is really a loyal dog, too cold and hard to win over."
Yan Ling said from the side, "It's because you always keep your position in mind that you can become the commander of the Yulin Army."
The Yulin Army is the emperor's personal soldiers, so they must be the confidants of his confidants.
Yan Ling stood up and said, "It's time for me to visit the old lady."
As both clans have a long history, the Shen family and the Yan family certainly know each other.
It's just that after the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty, one became more and more secluded from the world, while the other kept a low profile and declined.
One south and one west, naturally there is no intersection.
Princess Qinghe did not stop her, but lazily said, "Okay, let's go find out what's going on with the old lady."
When Bai He came in to report that an old friend was visiting, Shen Xingwan was talking to the old lady.
"Who is coming?" the old lady asked.
"He is a young and beautiful young man." Bai He said.
Shen Xingwan instantly made a guess. The old lady glanced at her and said, "Let someone come in."
Yan Ling, dressed in purple, came over with a fan in hand, nodded and lowered her eyebrows and said, "Old Madam, be well."
"Who are you?" The old lady looked at him.
Yan Ling smiled faintly and said, "Yulin Family Yan."
The old lady smiled lightly and said, "It turns out that he is a descendant of the Yan family. The Yan family and I can be considered old acquaintances."
Shen Xingwan listened to the polite exchanges between the two and could not help but yawn.
I haven't slept all night, and these "nonsense" have a very hypnotic effect.
Yan Ling looked at her resentfully, "My waist is seriously injured."
"It's just an accident." Shen Xingwan quickly explained.
"So the girl is planning not to admit her fault?" Yan Ling looked at her, her eyes flickering, exuding fatal attraction.
"Wait a minute, I will personally bring medicine to make amends to the young master." Shen Xingwan compromised.
Yan Ling then politely said goodbye to the old lady.
"Do you know each other?" the old lady asked.
Shen Xingwan shook his head, "He came out of nowhere last night and said something about protecting me..."
Shen Xingwan paused and lowered his voice, "I think he wanted to tease me... just to hook me up..."
"Ahem!" The old lady coughed twice. She had nothing to say. She always felt that things were going very strangely.
"Can you handle it yourself?" the old lady said.
Shen Xingwan nodded, "No matter what his purpose is, if he is so good-looking and even brought it to his door, then I will play with him for a while. It won't be a loss anyway."
Shen Xingwan: If you don’t look at a beautiful woman, you won’t look at her...
Shen Xingwan left with satisfaction, and no one spoke in the room for a while.
Grandma Zhang took a deep breath and said, "Is this really good for the girl? Why didn't I see it before? Why does she look at her face like this..."
The old lady didn't say anything, so she also liked good-looking people when she was young...
Now I also feel that good-looking young ladies and gentlemen are particularly lovable...
The old lady said seriously, "This is something that the prince should worry about, so let's not worry about it blindly."
Aunt Zhang muttered in a low voice, "Isn't the prince not here..."
