Chapter 924: Chapter 924-Can’t Be a Drag
Xiao Baoxin had a bad feeling and stood up immediately.”Is there something wrong, Master Lang?”
“Come in quickly!”
Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Yun had already entered the house out of breath. The people in the house held their breaths and did not dare to make a sound.
“Master Lang is fine!” Liu Yun finally shouted out the most important thing. He heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn’t let things go wrong. Master Lang was afraid that Madam would be worried and called him back to report the news first. If he did not make things clear and scared Madam again, he would also be in trouble.
After taking a few deep breaths to calm himself down, Liu Yun said in an orderly manner,” Just now, after the palace banquet ended, Lord Lang bid farewell to Supervisor Pan and Deputy Lu. Suddenly, an arrow was shot from the dark. Fortunately, General Jin was alert and pushed Lord Lang away in time…Lord Lang…” He paused for a moment.” She’s not injured.”
Is that right?
Xiao Baoxin sensed his hesitation almost immediately.””What exactly happened? Tell me in detail and don’t hide anything. Lord Lang asked you to return to the residence to reply so that I can be at ease. Don’t talk nonsense and make things go wrong.”His gaze was sharp.
Liu Yun’s heart tightened as he begged for mercy,””I mean you didn’t receive any arrows. It’s just that General Jin pushed too hard. I don’t know if you sprained your ankle. Lord Lang did not want Madam to worry, so he anxiously sent me back. I did not look carefully. I only took a glance. When Lord Lang walked, he was a little… Point your feet.”
“This lowly one doesn’t dare to confirm, so I don’t know if I should say it. Furen, please spare my life, this lowly one definitely doesn’t dare to hide anything!”
He was really afraid that if he didn’t do it well, he would scare Madam and be punished by his master.
“I dare to swear to the heavens!”
Xiao Baoxin was speechless. “Alright, I’m just asking you. You don’t have to be so afraid.”
“This lowly one has to be afraid. Master Lang was assassinated, but he only sent this lowly one back to the residence to report such a big matter to Furen at the first moment. He was afraid that Furen would worry. If I can’t even do this little thing, how can I be of great use in the future?”
Xiao Baoxin did not argue with him.
It could be seen that this Flowing Cloud Servant was different from Wind and Moon. He was a pure chatterbox type of player. He would never allow himself to finish talking in one sentence.
Without needing Xiao Baoxin to ask, Liu Yun had already recounted the entire incident in detail.
This included Supervisor Pan, who complained that Consort Xian was as scared as a quail and wanted to call someone into the palace at the slightest sign of trouble. It was said that he had also recently heard that the Emperor had slept well after drinking the calming soup, so he followed suit and drank it.
Including the fact that Xie Xian had dodged the bullet and Pan Shuo had not.
He was also startled and tried to dodge, but in the end, he was in a tight spot and hit his forehead into two symmetrical bumps.
In addition, knives and arrows had no eyes. Two of the Xie family’s secret guards were injured, one in the leg and the other in the arrow.
” That arrow was poisoned, and the blood that flowed out was black.” Liu Yun gritted his teeth in hatred.”Although Lord Lang has already called for people to invite the imperial physician who has not gone far back, but…I don’t know if I can make it in time!”
“Where is Lord Lang now?” Xiao Baoxin frowned.
“Lord Lang is furious. He has already ordered the entire city to be under martial law and sent people to mobilize troops. Tonight, the entire city will be searched.”Liu Yun rubbed his fists. His only regret was that he could not personally see his master looking for trouble.
However, when she thought of Xie Xian, it was obvious that Madam was more important.
Regarding the matter of sending him back to report to Madam, he only had the greatest glory and did not complain at all. After all, in Lord Lang’s heart, everyone else was a fart, and Madam was the shocking thunder.
“Master Lang instructed me to ask Madam not to think, not to be alarmed, not to… Move.”
“I’ll wait for news in the residence.”
“If Furen is not at ease, this lowly one will come and inquire and pass the message to Furen. Jiankang City was under martial law now, and there were countless assassins running amok. If Madam ran into them, it was not that Madam could not defeat them, but it would really make Master Lang worry. If she panicked, it would be inappropriate, right?”Liu Yun spoke as if someone was snatching it from him.
After saying that, the lingering charm echoed in people’s ears.
Liu Yun was a little excited when he saw that he did not receive Xiao Baoxin’s approval immediately.” Madam, you can’t drag Master down.”
The voice stopped abruptly.
Hibiscus had nothing else to say except to give him a thumbs up to express her admiration.
She had already forgotten what happened to the last person who dared to say that. It had been too long.
“I don’t mean that. Madam…” Liu Yun’s tears were about to flow out.” Master Lang instructed that Madam is not allowed to leave the residence. He’s afraid that Madam will be in danger. If Madam still goes out, Master Lang will definitely vent his anger on me. Even a hundred lives won’t be enough.”
“Alright, I didn’t say I was going.”
Xiao Baoxin waved his hand. It seemed like he didn’t suffocate her to death when he spoke. Even if she was shocked, she should at least talk for a change of breath.
The person who was speaking could endure it, but the person who was listening could not take it. There was not even a single exclamation mark. Did she want to suffocate to death?
“Go and do your work. Report to me immediately if you have the latest news. Don’t hide anything!”The last sentence was a little harsh.
“If I find out that you’re lying, Liuyun, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
If she dared to lie to her with Xie Xian, she could destroy Xie Xian, but could she not destroy this accomplice?
Her heart ached for the accomplice.
Liu Yun immediately perked up and straightened his back.”Furen is good. With Furen’s words, I wouldn’t lie to Furen even if I lied to Lord Lang.”After saying that, he left in a flash.
Mu Jin covered her mouth and laughed.
She was indeed young, but her brain worked quickly. Xiao Baoxin didn’t think that the person beside Xie Xian could be a silly, innocent, and sweet person. Those who could serve him as servants were all loyal people who had checked their ancestors for eight generations.
Seeing that it was late, Xiao Baoxin asked someone to carry the twins back to sleep. Immediately after, he asked someone to invite Butler Qi over and ordered more guards to set up posts and patrol strictly.
The assassins were targeting Xie Xian, but they couldn’t succeed in their first attack, and they were also surrounded and intercepted by Xie Xian. No one could guarantee that those people wouldn’t be desperate enough to charge into the Xie Clan and fight to the death.
She knew that those who could carry out assassinations were people who did not care about their lives. To maximize the benefits, it was very likely that he would be dragged down with him if he killed a few of them.
Butler Qi did not know what was going on. When he heard that Liu Yun had rushed back, but Lord Lang was nowhere to be seen, he knew that the matter was serious. He didn’t dare to ask any more questions and quickly agreed to set up.
Xiao Baoxin sat quietly in the room drinking tea. He looked calm and composed on the outside, but his heart was as if grass had grown on it.
Even though Xie Xian, who was like a mirror, would not lie to her about this matter, she could not help but think of the worst. Fortunately, Liu Yun was reliable. Whenever there was any movement, he would send someone to report to the residence. It really allowed her to grasp Xie Xian’s whereabouts at all times.
