Nine-layer armor-breaking

Chapter 251 Secrecy
Jiang Xuan was a little absent-minded at the moment, and he looked downcast, his thoughts seemingly drifting elsewhere...

"Jiang Xian! What on earth did you do? How could you not come home for several days?"

"Brother, I'm not here with you, how dare you! If you really encounter a peak warrior, can those guards withstand it?"

"What's the important matter? Don't wait until I get back!"

"And father... are you really so confident that you can let your own daughter go out for days at a time with just two guards? How can you be so careless?"

Jiang Xuan seemed to be talking to them one by one in his mind, but the more he thought about it, the more powerless he became, and the more he spoke, the more powerless he became.

"Jiang Xian, you and your parents should be together now! That guard shouldn't be lying to me, right?"

"It doesn't seem like he's lying. After all, I caught him red-handed. He only said it to those two guards, not to me on purpose. Moreover, he was presenting himself as City Lord Li's personal guard, so what he said should be true."

Jiang Xuan calculated it over and over in his mind.

He really didn't understand why Jiang Xian was allowed to go out alone. Although he brought guards with him, it was a bit too careless.

"One person has already run away from home, how can I let another one run away?" Jiang Xuan was bored and complained in his heart.

"Although I'm fine now and have encountered some opportunities that have made me a top warrior, it's still too dangerous. If Jiang Xian hadn't encountered such opportunities, there would only be danger..."

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan really didn't dare to let himself think any further.

Jiang Xuan was stunned, and now he really regretted it.

But he still has to deal with the current matters first.

……

Yingzhou City, Jiang Mansion.

"Please inform me, I want to see Miss Xian."

A guard came to Jiang Xian's courtyard gate, stood straight, and spoke to the servant guarding the gate.

That day, when Jiang Xuan appeared at the gate of the Jiang family as Ling Honghe, he met the Jiang family guard who was riding back to the Jiang Mansion to report his safety.

This guard's surname is Guo, and he is considered the third most powerful guard in the Jiang Mansion.

He is a righteous man and acts cautiously, and is very popular in the Jiang family.

The atmosphere in the Jiang family has always been very good, and the four masters of the Jiang family can be said to treat their servants particularly well.

In their minds, there is no clear dividing line between master and servant, and they don't care about many things.

Jiang Yuan treats the housekeeper Li Qizhizi so kindly, and the two of them call each other brothers in private. In this way, Li Qizhizi will continue this friendship when managing the servants, and naturally he will treat the servants well.

Lou Xingman rarely meddles in household affairs and has a kind temper, so the servants who serve her naturally live a good life.

Needless to say, Jiang Xuan was a bit careless in his daily work, so how could he bother with the servants?

Jiang Xian is indeed a special one.

Among the servants of the Jiang Mansion, apart from Li Qizhi, the only ones who have seen Jiang Xian's appearance are a few trustworthy maids and pharmacists, as well as a few trustworthy guards. There are no others.

Jiang Xian didn't interact much with most people in the mansion, and she would wear a veil when she wandered around. When she and Jiang Xuan were sparring in the mansion's martial arts arena, servants were not allowed to approach. Therefore, the only people who had seen Jiang Xian's face were those close to her and a few people in the courtyard.

After all, Jiang Xian's appearance is really outstanding, and although the current Jiang family is one of the three major families of Yingzhou Chamber of Commerce, it does not have the ability to protect such a young girl with such outstanding appearance.

If it were seen by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Although Jiang Xian's parents and Jiang Xuan felt that asking Jiang Xian to cover his face was very unfair to him, that was the way the world was.

If a girl with outstanding appearance is born in a family that cannot fully protect her, her advantage in appearance is not a good thing.

This is why Jiang Xian is a mysterious place in Yingzhou, and why the rumors are so outrageous.

This is also the reason why Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xian did not reveal Jiang Xian's identity when they were stopped by Xing Yue, and the reason why Xing Yue misunderstood and teased Jiang Xuan.

Therefore, although Jiang Xian herself has a somewhat unique personality, speaks and acts decisively, and leaves no room for maneuver, she is also a capable person.

The servants also knew that although their Miss Xian would not lose her temper with them, she was a very opinionated person. She had no choice in what she said, but if anything happened, she would take the responsibility alone and never blame the servants.

Moreover, Jiang Xian's mood is extremely stable. She is just bold and decisive, but she won't do anything out of line. The servants of the Jiang Mansion are assured of this. When they stay with Jiang Xian, they won't be frightened often.

Moreover, there are not many people in the Jiang Mansion who can have in-depth communication with Jiang Xian, so most people don’t even know what Jiang Xian, the young master of the Jiang family, looks like, let alone his temper and personality, let alone having too much contact with him.

This is why the servants feel very comfortable staying in the Jiang family. Even though other families have taken a fancy to them and offered some attractive conditions, the guards and pharmacists are reluctant to leave.

"Guard Guo, you know that the young lady has just returned home and naturally needs to rest well. I'm afraid she won't be able to see you." One of the servants standing at the gate of the courtyard replied.

"I have something important to tell you. Please inform them!" Guard Guo said it again to the two servants in a firm tone.

The servants looked hesitant, but finally made up their minds and said to Guard Guo, "Guard Guo, to tell you the truth, the young lady is not here."

The other servant also looked embarrassed and nodded in agreement with the previous servant.

Guard Guo saw that the two servants' expressions were genuine, so he asked them, "Then please tell me where Miss Xian is now?"

"This..." The servant hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind to tell Guard Guo.

"The young lady is now in the pharmacy in the backyard." The servant said this reluctantly.

Guard Guo nodded upon hearing this, but he was also a little confused.

"Is a pharmacy some shameful place? Why are you so reluctant to say it out loud?" Guard Guo thought to himself.

Just when Guard Guo was a little confused, he heard the voice of another servant.

"Guardian Guo, please keep this matter confidential."

After saying that, the servant looked at Guard Guo with an extremely expectant look.

"Keep it secret? Keep what secret?" Guard Guo was really confused. He looked around at the two of them and asked them.

"The lady is injured."
