Xue Ningyu, who was guarding her bedside, was startled. Seeing Leng Qiu's pale face and dripping with cold sweat, she quickly took out the silk handkerchief from her sleeves and wiped her forehead: "Don't be afraid, mother is here!"
Leng Qiu stared blankly at the window with his eyes wide open.
Xue Ningyu hurriedly patted her innocent little face: "Qiu'er! Qiu'er!"
Leng Qiu came back to his senses and looked at Xue Ningyu: "Mother!"
"Qiu'er, mother is here!" Xue Ningyu hurriedly patted her back: "Are you scared?"
"Mom, it's too scary!" Leng Qiu suddenly grabbed Xue Ningyu's hand, held it tightly, and trembled slightly: "It's too scary!"
"Qiu'er, you went to Princess Xiao's place, didn't you?" Xue Ningyu said angrily: "I told you not to go there!"
"Mom, an assassin came from Tianshu Academy today. His martial arts skills are very high!" Leng Qiu said: "He was killed by Xiao Li in the end. It's really scary!"
"It's just to kill an assassin, what's so scary about it!" Xue Ningyu said angrily: "It's not like I've never seen dead people before!"
Leng Qiu shook his head and said: "Chu Li cut off the assassin's head with one sword. It's really..."
When she said this, her face turned pale.
Xue Ningyu frowned and thought.
"Mom!" Leng Qiu saw that his mother was not comforting him, but was in a daze. He shook her arm dissatisfiedly: "Mother!"
Xue Ningyu came back to her senses, shook her head and said: "You girl, you are so brave, stay away from his killer star, don't provoke him!"
"He is quite kind, but he is terrible when he kills people!" Leng Qiu snorted unconvincedly. Seeing Xue Ningyu fell into deep thought again, she shouted dissatisfied: "Mom, what are you thinking about!"
"I'm thinking about the assassin." Xue Ningyu said, "Do you think the assassin is a little strange?"
"Weird?" Leng Qiu tilted his head and thought for a while: "It's a bit strange, tall and fat, but yet so flexible and fast. If Chu Li hadn't been so powerful in martial arts, he would have been killed by him!"
Xue Ningyu's sweet face was filled with contemplation: "In the past, when Chu Li encountered an assassin, he would just kill him. Is there such a brutal killing method?"
Leng Qiu shook his head.
Xue Ningyu said: "There is something wrong with this person's identity...forget it, it's useless to think about this. I have to go and thank Chu Li for saving you again."
Leng Qiu said: "I won't go."
"You..." Xue Ningyu shook her head and said, "You are so pampered!"
"Mom, I want to ask Chu Li to be my bodyguard for the hunting ceremony." Leng Qiu said.
"He wants to guard Princess Xiao." Xue Ningyu said: "How can you agree? Just give up and drink this medicine. It won't matter if you sleep!"
She took the medicine bowl handed by the maid and coaxed Leng Qiu to drink it. After Leng Qiu slowly fell asleep, she left Yaoguang Courtyard and came to Tianshu Courtyard.
Xue Ningyu came to Tianshu Courtyard, visited Xiao Shi, and then came out to talk to Chu Li.
I would like to thank Chu Li for saving his life and for protecting Leng Qiu. Although he scared her a lot, he saved her life.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. He mentioned the idea of letting them move here for a while.
"General manager, these words must not have been said by the prince." Xue Ningyu showed a sweet smile, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The prince is most afraid that we will get together. Whose idea was it?"
Chu Li smiled and said, "It's me."
Xue Ningyu suppressed her smile: "If it were someone else, I wouldn't care, but since you said it, Chief Manager, I have to consider it."
"What are the conditions for the princess?" Chu Li said.
Xue Ningyu looks sweet and charming, straightforward and fierce, but she is an extremely smart person.
"I hope you can accompany Qiu'er to the hunting ceremony next month." Xue Ningyu said.
Chu Li sighed: "Princess, why should you pay attention to the children's playfulness and quarrels?"
"In your opinion, it is a child's play, but in my opinion, it is not." Xue Ningyu shook her head and smiled: "Adults always think that these small things are not worth mentioning. Don't you know that to Qiu'er, it is more important than anything else?
I've been through this before and know what it's like."
Chu Li thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, I agree!"
Xue Ningyu said with a smile: "Only the chief manager dares to bring up this idea. Others clearly think about it but dare not say it for fear of offending the prince. I am very happy that you can think about the prince's house!"
Chu Li shook his head: "My rank is too high, and I am in the eyes of the prince, but he is not happy."
Xue Ningyu waved her hand and chuckled: "The prince has always thought very highly of himself. Suddenly a first-class person suddenly appeared. To be able to talk to him on an equal footing is definitely not something he is used to. It will get better slowly. Don't be impatient, Chief Manager."
"I hope so." Chu Li smiled.
Xue Ningyu pursed her lips and smiled and said: "General Manager, you are indeed very smart. Staying by Princess Xiao's side is actually to avoid her and let the prince get used to her. You are indeed smart enough."
Chu Li shook his head: "It's just a hit in the middle. There are so many assassins, and relying on the palace's guards, the young lady would have died a long time ago. The one yesterday was very powerful."
"That's true."
Chu Li said: "The palace's face is important."
"Hmph, all men are the same." Xue Ningyu said angrily: "Face is more important than our lives!"
Chu Li nodded hurriedly.
Princess Xue really dares to speak, how can she say these words to herself?
Xue Ningyu snorted and said, "Okay, I'll move here tomorrow. Which yard?"
"How about the second one on the west side?"
"The first room is reserved for Princess Song, right?" Xue Ningyu hummed.
Chu Li smiled sheepishly.
"Chu Li, it's not the right thing for you to do these things that offend others." Xue Ningyu shook her head and smiled, then curled up.
Chu Li sighed.
This Princess Xue should not be underestimated, her ability to win over people's hearts is extremely powerful.
Not long after Xue Ningyu left, Song Liuying appeared.
As soon as Chu Li mentioned this, Song Liuying's slender eyebrows furrowed slightly and he remained silent.
Chu Li said: "Princess Song, I guess she won't stay here for long. Princess Xue has agreed to move here and live in the second room on the west side."
"She agreed?" Song Liuying said lightly: "It's rare!"
Chu Li smiled and said: "The two princesses are both reasonable people, and they also know the difficulties in the palace. It is true that there is a shortage of manpower. If they are scattered, everyone is in danger. Although the assassin's target is the young lady, it is inevitable that someone will take the opportunity to get more.
idea.”
"Well, okay," Song Liuying said, "I'll move here tomorrow. I heard that you killed another assassin?"
"Yes." Chu Li said: "When the three princesses get together, they will no longer be afraid of assassins!"
"I hope so." Song Liuying said calmly and wandered away.
Chu Li watched her leave and let out a long sigh of relief.
If I hadn't used Da Yuan Jingzhi to see clearly their thoughts and grasp their weaknesses, how could they have been so easily persuaded? Both of them are extremely smart women, and such women are the most difficult to deal with!
Early the next morning, before Chu Li could get up to practice, he heard movement outside. There were constant shouts. Two groups of people were moving things, and they seemed to be competing in the loudness of the shouts.
Chu Li knew that the two princesses had started to move, so he came to Xiao Shi's yard.
The courtyard is quite lively.
Xiao Shi was lying on the couch, Song Liuying and Xue Ningyu were chatting beside him, while Leng Qiu and Leng Qing were whispering together. Seeing Chu Li come in, Leng Qiu shrank his neck.
Chu Li smiled and nodded at her. Her innocent face turned pale and she quickly looked away.
Leng Qing's bright eyes looked at him curiously. (To be continued.)
