The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

He couldn't help but want to get close to her, which led to the idea of ​​sending Wushuang to protect her. He didn't want her to get hurt, regardless of her appearance; it was simply because she was the one he was looking for.

But now, seeing Xiao San and her so intimate, he had an urge to at least put him in a sack and beat him up, as if his pet had been petted by someone else—uncomfortable, very uncomfortable!

Mo Liuyun helped Xiao Shi into the carriage, while Mo Liujin and Xiao Jinhua rode in another carriage. The carriage slowly drove away from the General's Mansion and headed out of the city.

After the carriage left the city gate, about a mile away, there was a farewell pavilion by the roadside. Wushuang saw three carriages slowly approaching. Wushuang used the same trick again, but this time he did not pretend to be injured. He simply lay down in the middle of the road. The lead guard saw a person lying unconscious by the roadside and quickly went forward to check. There seemed to be no external injuries, so he could only go forward to report to the young master.

The caravan stopped, and Xiao Jinhua and Mo Liuyun got off the carriage. Led by the guards, they went forward to check on the man. They saw that he was dressed plainly and was lying on the side of the road with his hair covering half of his face. Xiao Jinhua instructed the guards to go forward and help him up.

After the guards helped the man up, his hair slipped down his face. Xiao Jinhua's eyes widened suddenly, and he opened his mouth, saying, "Wu~" but then his words turned into, "Is that alright?" Mo Liuyun tugged at Xiao Jinhua's sleeve and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Third cousin, that's Wushuang. I told him to wait for me here. Find a reason to take him back and say he fainted from hunger."

The head guard said, "I took his pulse and found no internal injuries. I don't know why he is unconscious."

Mo Liuyun: "Is it possible that he fainted from hunger?"

Xiao Jinhua was utterly speechless: the commander of the assassination department of the Prince of Pingnan's mansion, fainting from hunger? This reason was utterly absurd. Had they planned this beforehand, not even bothering to come up with a reason? Just lying there, bright and clean, by the roadside? Waiting for someone to pick him up? Well! Besides the prince, there was also the connection to his cousin; he really couldn't refuse to take her in! But…

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinhua said to Mo Liuyun, "Cousin, go back first. Leave it to me."

"Hmm." Mo Liuyun said, then turned and got back into the carriage.

As soon as Mo Liuyun left, Xiao Jinhua squatted down in front of Wushuang and instructed the guard captain, "Go and fetch a water bag. Give it to me first." The guard captain responded and left.

Xiao Jinhua helped Wushuang up, pinched her waist, and gritted her teeth: "How come I didn't know Commander Wushuang could faint from hunger? What are you planning?"

Wu Shuang was in so much pain he almost jumped up, but Xiao Jinhua held him down tightly. He couldn't make a move, afraid that others would find out, so he could only grab Xiao Jinhua's hand on his waist: "After you were injured last time, Master sent me to protect you in secret. Don't be ungrateful! I'll tell you about other things later. I won't harm you."

Xiao Jinhua thought that even if the prince thought about the relationship between her uncle and the Duke's mansion, he wouldn't harm her cousin, so she felt relieved!

The guard captain brought over some water and fed it to Wushuang. Then, the person who had fainted slowly woke up. The guard captain was puzzled, wondering if it was just his imagination, but after drinking the water, the person's complexion seemed to have become a little rosier.

Wushuang: Was that from drinking water? I was pinched and it hurt!!

Then, after a token inquiry about why he had fainted by the roadside, Wushuang opened his mouth, then lowered his head and remained silent. To others, he seemed to be hesitant to speak. Just when everyone thought he wouldn't answer, he opened his mouth and uttered two words: "Hungry!" Then Xiao Jinhua took him back to the carriage.

Actually, Wushuang was looking down to think of a reason. As the commander of the assassination department, it would be really embarrassing for him to pretend to faint from hunger! So he planned to find another reason, but when he couldn't think of one, he gritted his teeth and decided to go for it. If he fainted from hunger, so be it, as long as it worked!

After Wushuang was helped into the carriage, the curtain was lowered, and Mo Liujin bowed and greeted her, "Master!"

Wushuang: "My good disciple, no need for formalities. May I ask what your relationship is with this young master who saved me?"

Xiao Jinhua: Damn it, what a dog! He only knew how to pinch me; he definitely wouldn't get the better of me. This guy is cunning; he was waiting here all along! He's Ah Jin's master, while I'm Ah Jin's cousin. So, by that logic, I'm a generation lower!

"Master, this is my second maternal uncle's third cousin." He then introduced Xiao Jinhua, "Third cousin, this is my master!"

Then Wushuang looked at Xiao Jinhua with a hint of doubt: "Oh, cousin, I thought it was some elder!"

Mo Liujin hurriedly tugged at her cousin's sleeve: "Cousin?" meaning that he should pay his respects to her master.

Xiao Jinhua could only grit her teeth and stand up to bow to that wretched master, Mo Liujin! Then she glanced at Wushuang: You just wait!

Wushuang looked at Xiao Jinhua defiantly: What? You think you can eat me? You can't beat me in a fight, and you can't out-argue me. I was sent here by my master, what are you afraid of?!

Then Wushuang smiled kindly and said, "No need for formalities!"

Xiao Jinhua said to Mo Liujin, "Ah Jin, actually, I also know people who know martial arts. Their martial arts skills and character are all very suitable for being a teacher. Why don't you consider changing your master?"

Mo Liujin: My cousin and Master are so strange. There must be something he doesn't know. Otherwise, why would my cousin instigate someone to betray their sect and commit treason after knowing them for less than a day?!

Wushuang glanced at Mo Liujin and said, "Disciple, you also have a martial aunt named Wuyou. She's beautiful and kind-hearted. I'll introduce you to her sometime." Then she turned to Xiao Jinhua and said, "Third Young Master Xiao, would you like me to introduce you to her as well?"

Xiao Jinhua quickly waved his hand: "No need! No need! I'm busy with family matters and have no intention of making friends in the martial arts world!" When he said the word "friends," you could clearly hear the grinding of his back teeth!

Wushuang laughed: "Oh, didn't you just say you knew someone with excellent martial arts skills and character, and you wanted to introduce him to my disciple as a master? You must be quite free, so why don't you want to meet some new friends!"

Xiao Jinhua: "You misheard. I think my cousin approves of you. You must be good at both martial arts and character, very suitable to be Ajin's master!"

Mo Liujin: What are they saying? Why can't I understand a single word?!

Wushuang patted Mo Liujin's head, took out a jade pendant from her bosom, and handed it to Mo Liujin with a smile: "Last time I became a disciple in a hurry, and I didn't have time to prepare a gift. This is for you, and I hope you can grow up happily!"

Mo Liujin blushed as Wushuang patted her head and accepted the jade pendant, saying, "Thank you, Master!"

When Xiao Jinhua saw the jade pendant, he glanced at Wushuang, his eyes filled with incomprehension and heartache. Others might not know, but the three of them had gone through thick and thin together and were as close as brothers. He never expected that Wushuang would give this jade to Ajin. Others might think it was just a valuable jade pendant, but he knew that Wushuang had valued this jade more than his own life!

Only now did Xiao Jinhua truly feel relieved. It seemed that even if Wushuang had ulterior motives in protecting his cousin, he genuinely liked Ajin, which was why he gave her this jade pendant.

The carriage traveled for about an hour before stopping in front of the Duke of Huguo's mansion. Lian'er came over and lifted the curtain: "Madam, Miss, we've arrived at the Duke's mansion!"
