The Concubine's Daughter Travels Through Time and Space and Takes the Road of Confrontation

Tonghua lifted the curtain of the car and saw that the car was blocked by several hunting dogs. The owner of the hunting dogs was an old man, who was shouting and dragging the dogs to the side of the road.

"Girl, it's okay, it's a hunter."

Miss Lu lifted the car window curtain and took a look, but there was nothing unusual.

After the carriage drove away, Scarface, who was hiding behind the stall, walked up to the old man, took the dog leash from him, distributed it to several people behind him, and walked away quickly along the street.

In the evening, Miss Lu, who was dressed in a middle-length dress, told Tonghua to take charge of the night duty and then closed the partition door of the inner room.

After another half hour of busy work, he finally lay down on the couch in the outer room, yawned, blew out the candle, and fell into a deep sleep.

At midnight, a black figure tiptoed out of the room and climbed over the courtyard wall.

During her time at the Nanyue Palace, she had memorized the locations of the walls and other obstructions. She clung to the walls to avoid the night watchmen, finally reaching the second gate, which was already locked. The gatekeeper leaned against the wall, nodding her head.

She quickly knocked him unconscious, then used the momentum to climb over the wall. As soon as she landed, she heard several footsteps coming from the east corridor. She was now in a long, narrow corridor with no shelter at all. For now, she could only take a gamble. She remembered there was a small door on the west side.

She rushed closer and gently pushed the tightly closed black lacquered wooden door, revealing a crack. The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer, so she dodged and hid in the door.

A large amount of bright light leaked through the crack in the door to her feet. Miss Lu's body was stretched straight and pressed against the wall, her heart beating like a drum.

A voice complained, "The night watchwoman is getting lazy and can't even close the door properly."

Another voice sounded, "Why are you saying so much? Just turn it off."

"Bang" the door slammed shut.

After putting his ear against the wall and listening for a while without hearing any sound, the man in black turned his gaze to the top of the wall.

Jiang Nu was lying on the bed with her eyes closed when she suddenly heard a "bang" coming from the wall behind her. She immediately opened her eyes. There was someone!

She sat up and unexpectedly met a pair of green eyes.

Ms. Jiang was startled and covered her mouth with her hand. She got out of bed barefoot, hugged the dog's head in her arms and rubbed it hard, asking, "How did you get in?"

Huihui raised his neck and used his mouth to point to the wide-open south window.

Jiang Nu understood, gestured to him and whispered, "Don't make a sound, I'll help you catch the thief."

After all, it was a puppy, so Jiang Nu grabbed her coat and tied Huihui's mouth, leading it out step by step.

The man in black in the dark was running quickly towards the main house in the backyard.

Jiang Nv rubbed her feet. It was unusually chilly at night in Dali. Huihui's ears twitched slightly, and he pulled her straight toward the backyard.

The man in black, who was using a knife to unlock the door, was alerted to something unusual behind him and quickly turned around, his pupils slightly dilated with fear. Under the pale moonlight, a figure and a "monster" with green eyes stood behind him for who knows how long.

Being discovered, Jiang Nu saw the dagger in the black-clothed man's hand, which was shining coldly, and she swallowed nervously. The black-clothed man moved and attacked her with the dagger raised.

Jiang Nu reacted subconsciously and quickly pushed Huihui aside. She raised her left arm to block the wrist of the person holding the dagger, and at the same time, she punched the person opposite with her right fist.

The man in black was knocked flying by her punch and hit the pillar behind him, then slid to the ground and lay motionless.

Huihui panted a few times and began to use his front paws to pull at the clothes tied to his mouth.

Ms. Jiang stepped forward cautiously and tentatively kicked the person on the ground's leg with her foot.

At this moment, something unexpected happened.

The man on the ground suddenly opened his eyes and kicked Jiang Nu. Jiang Nu couldn't dodge in time and was kicked and fell on her butt.

The man in black covered his chest with his hands and attacked again with a knife. Jiang Nu supported herself on the ground with one hand, tilted her body and turned her head downwards, and kicked the soft flesh on his waist quickly.

With a crisp "ding" sound, the dagger flew out of his hand and the man in black fell to the ground.

The light was bright all around. Jiang Nu squinted her eyes and covered her eyes with her hands, looking at the person who came.

Zhou Boli looked at the miserable man and dog lying on the ground, a smile flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Nu was wearing a red dress and green pants. She sat cross-legged with her feet tucked under her buttocks and pointed at the person on the ground in a flattering manner, "Your Highness, I have caught a thief."

Huihui raised his head and swept the ground with his big tail behind him.

Liuzi tied up the man in black and took him away.

"Still not getting up?"

Jiang Nu lowered her head and climbed up from the ground, not forgetting to untie the clothes on Huihui's mouth on the way. Her two gray feet were curled up under her trouser legs.

Zhou Boli endured it again and again. "Where are your shoes?"

Jiang Nu waited for an opportunity to show off her merits, "I was so anxious to catch the thief that I forgot to put on my clothes."

Zhou Boli said something nonsense, "It seems that you don't know the rules of Muyang Residence. Servants are not allowed to be untidy. Otherwise, the fine is half a month's salary."

"Ah?" Jiang Nu was shocked. "I have never heard Brother Liuzi mention this rule."

"Sixth Brother?" Zhou Boli raised his eyebrows slightly and glared at the dark-faced maid. "It seems that your Sixth Brother didn't convey the message well enough. Then I'll fine him one month's salary as a warning to others."

Jiang Nu was ashamed and said, "Your Highness, please punish me. It is my fault."

Zhou Boli walked her to the door, bent down and untied the clothes on the dog's mouth and handed it to her. "Forget it, considering it's your first offense, I'll let you off this time. Don't do this next time."

Jiang Nu took the clothes and was overjoyed. She vowed, "I know I was wrong and will never make the same mistake again." Half of the monthly silver was two and a half taels, enough to buy three hundred and twenty steamed buns. She ate seven at a meal, which was enough for her for half a month.

Having said that, after what happened just now, she was indeed hungry.

Sitting on the bed with a rumbling stomach, Jiang Nu sincerely hoped that three plates piled high with snacks would appear on the table in front of her.

Huihui lay at her feet and looked up at the door.

"Knock knock" someone knocked on the door.

"Miss Jiangnu, your servant Caihe is here to bring you some food on the orders of the prince."

The door was pushed open, and a strange yet inexplicably familiar figure appeared at the door.

Jiang Nu stared at the newcomer in a daze, her throat sore. "Sister Caihe, have I seen you before?"

Cai He paused, turned her back, took out the food one by one, and placed it on the table. She fought back tears, her voice choked with a barely perceptible sob, "I also think the young lady looks very familiar, like - my little sister at home."

Caihe sat down at the table and served her young lady meal as usual. Everything was natural and warm.

"Knock knock." Someone knocked on the door again.

Jiang Nu raised her chopsticks and looked behind her. A round-faced girl about the same height as herself was standing by the door.

Huihui, who was eating, looked up and whimpered twice at the person who came, then continued to lower his head and wolf down his food.

Jiang Nu was not sure "Have I seen you too?"

The round-faced girl sat on the other side of Jiang Nu and said simply, "Well, I've met my sister."

Jiang Nu frowned and thought hard, when she suddenly felt a throbbing pain at the back of her head.

"What's wrong?" They both asked in unison, their expressions showing the same nervousness.

Jiang Nu smiled and shook her head. "I'm sorry, I had a head injury and can't remember anything from the past for now."

"Then don't even think about it." The round-faced girl said immediately, "My name is Qin Dashou, and I also serve the prince. Sister, just call me Dashou."
