I'm shocked! After breaking off the engagement, the emperor's uncle wants to have a fake m

When he saw it was Mu Qingyan, he relaxed his guard and gasped heavily.

"I failed to fulfill my duty of protection. Please punish me, young lady..."

As she spoke, she wanted to kneel down, but unfortunately the carriage was too small and there was not enough space.

"Sit still... You are covered in wounds. I have sealed your acupuncture points and stopped the bleeding. Don't move. I don't have any medicine on hand right now. I will treat you when I get back."

Jiu Niang seemed stunned.

After a while, he came back to his senses and said, "My life is worth only one, so you don't have to worry about it, young lady."

"You were sent to me by Prince Ling, and you died within two days. How can I explain this to him?"

Jiu Niang smiled bitterly, "I am just a guard. I live to protect my master. It is my honor to die for my master. Miss, you don't need to explain to anyone."

Mu Qingyan sighed, "Alright, alright, just lean back and rest for a while, we'll be there soon..."

Jiu Niang did feel very tired, but her master was still here, so there was no reason for her to close her eyes and rest. She just sat there straight, as if she had no injuries at all.

Mu Qingyan had no choice but to say, "If you don't listen and rest well, then I can only seal your acupuncture points like I did just now and let you sleep."

Before Jiu Niang could say anything, she felt a touch on her shoulder and fell asleep.

When they arrived at the Duke's Mansion, Yuzhan went forward and knocked on the door, but no one came to open it for a long time.

The doorman even replied from inside, "The Duke said that the capital has been in turmoil recently. Miss, you are late. Please find a place to rest."

Mu Qingyan was locked outside the door again.

There is no such thing as a third time. This time, she was really angry.

He did not climb over the wall as he did before. Instead, he let Yuzhan support Jiuniang and walked forward himself. He used his internal strength and split open the two vermilion doors with one palm.

There was a loud bang, waking up everyone in the house.

When Duke Fuguo and Lady Lan hurried over with their servants, they saw Mu Qingyan striding in with a woman in black in her arms.

The two doors were broken and were on the verge of collapse. They could no longer be used...

Mu Ruge looked at her coldly, feeling frightened.

With so many assassins sent there, she was able to come back unscathed!

Did she break open this door with her bare hands?

When did she learn the peerless martial arts?

"Mu Qingyan, you are so insolent!"

Duke Fuguo was so angry that he stamped his feet.

I have never seen such a lawless woman! Does she still respect her elders?

Taoyuan is remote, and when Mu Yingyu arrived, she happened to see her father raising his hand to slap Mu Qingyan.

"Father!"

She shouted and ran over, blocking Mu Qingyan.

"Why is father so angry? Has he lost all respect for his dignity?"

Duke Fuguo already felt guilty for not standing up for Mu Yingyu when she fell into the water last time. Now that his daughter was standing in front of him, she could be considered disobedient. But no matter what, he couldn't bear to vent his anger on her.

So he put down his hand in disappointment.

Lan saw such a big thing being easily dealt with just because of Mu Yingyu's interference. She was so angry that she stepped forward and said sternly, "Yu'er, are you going to learn from your elder sister to be disrespectful and lawless? Where have you learned any rules!"

Mu Yingyu looked over and looked directly into Lan's eyes. "Big sister has been locked out of the mansion several times, and even a clay figure would still be angry! If it were mother, wouldn't you be angry too?"

"How dare you! How can you talk to me like that? I'm your mother!"

Mu Yingyu sneered, "You still know that you are my mother? For my second sister's coming-of-age ceremony, you wanted to invite all the dignitaries in Kyoto to come and set up a grand ceremony for her. What about me? You just asked Aunt Zhang to give me a hairpin, and that was it... I would get a rash when I ate hazelnuts, do you remember? You don't remember! You asked people to send me hazelnut cakes every day! And my second sister's birthday party..."

"Shut up!"

Lan was panicking, fearing that Mu Yingyu would speak without thinking in anger and tell everyone about Mu Ruge's plot against her.

Mu Yingyu smiled with tears in her eyes, "Look, someone wants to kill me, but you protect the murderer who wants to take my life... What mother would be so cruel!"

"Snapped--"

The slap finally landed on Mu Ying's jade-like face.

It was Lan who beat him.

It was too late for Duke Fuguo to stop it.

"Yu'er..." I wanted to comfort her but it seemed like I had no right to do so.

Mu Qingyan was holding Jiu Niang in her arms and couldn't stand up for her.

"Ayu, come back to Taoyuan with me!"

Mu Yingyu covered her face and looked at Lan, smiling sadly.

This slap destroyed all the love between mother and daughter.

"You gave birth to me, and I've died once, so I'm giving my life back to you... Mother..."

After saying that, she followed Mu Qingyan without even looking back.

Lan staggered two steps and almost lost her balance. Fortunately, Nanny Zhang behind her supported her. "Madam..."

Everyone looked at the two shattered doors, looking at each other, at a loss as to what to do.

In Taoyuan, Jiu Niang was placed on a low couch. Yuzhan took off her clothes and cleaned her wounds.

Under the exposed skin, in addition to new wounds, there are also crisscrossing old wounds. As far as the eye can see, there is almost no good skin, and it is covered with shocking scars.

Yuzhan was crying while cleaning her wound.

Some of the wounds were so deep that the flesh was exposed, and the blood and flesh were stuck to the clothes. She could only use water to slowly peel away the dried blood and remove the cloth.

After all the wounds were cleaned, they were sprinkled with medicine, bandaged and dressed.

The man lay quietly, his face pale.

"Let her sleep well. Leave someone to watch over her tonight. With so many wounds, she might have a fever. If you notice anything wrong, come and call me. Yuzhan's room can also accommodate two or three people. You can squeeze in and wait until the bunk bed is ready."

In fact, she had a lot of questions she wanted to ask, both about Guan and Jiu Niang.

But now is obviously not a good time.

They had just been assigned to her side and might not be willing to tell her about their own affairs.

"Yes……"

Mu Qingyan fought for a long time and suffered some minor injuries, but the wounds were shallow and could be healed with a simple bandage.

When she returned to the house, Mu Yingyu was wearing a white nightgown and sitting on the bed with her hands around her legs. She looked distraught. The side of her face that was beaten was still swollen, and the corner of her mouth was even cracked. It was obvious that Mrs. Lan really didn't feel sorry for her daughter at all.

She had just asked Yuzhan to boil an egg, which was not so hot now. She wrapped it in gauze, sat next to her, and rolled the egg slowly on her face.

"Hey... it hurts..."

Mu Yingyu took a breath and cried out in pain.

"Be patient and roll it with eggs. The swelling will go down faster."

"Big sister, from now on, you're the only one I'll feel sorry for..."

Mu Qingyan smiled, "Okay, I love you, okay!"

The personalities of the secret guards sent by Prince Ling were mostly similar. Although she had told Jiu Niang to call her if she had anything to do, she knew that these people would not come.

After rolling eggs on Mu Yingyu's body and applying anti-swelling medicine on her, she finally coaxed her to sleep and prepared to go see Jiu Niang.
