Transmigrated Little Farm Girl Bringing Great Fortune
Chapter 132 The Assassination of the King of Liang
The convoy left Qingyun Temple.
Xiuxiu followed the convoy, keeping a distance that wasn't too close or too far.
Xiao Miaomiao was in Princess Liang's carriage, and she dared not relax for a moment.
The little guy had made a promise with her: if he encountered danger, he should cry loudly, and she would come to his rescue.
When she heard Miaomiao crying, she almost rushed out, but after only a few cries, the crying stopped abruptly, and the carriage stopped as well.
At this moment, Cui Xingzhou and Chen Qian also caught up.
"What are you doing..." Xiuxiu suppressed a laugh.
"Aunt Xiuxiu, can you please not tell anyone?" Cui Xingzhou blushed and pulled off a few strands of straw from his head.
They scaled the wall and crawled through the dog hole, but still found nothing and were cornered by several vicious dogs.
Xiuxiu patted his shoulder and laughed, "Don't talk about it, don't talk about it. But what's the big deal? A true man can bend and stretch."
Chen Qian didn't feel ashamed, but he didn't want his little apprentice to know that he could have avoided crawling through the dog hole, but for his master's sake, he had no choice but to risk his life to accompany him.
Cui Xingzhou hid behind a tree, watching the calm and composed King Liang beside the carriage, and then watching his aunt's carriage stop.
Unable to resist asking, "Aunt Xiuxiu, did you see Prince Liang beating my aunt?"
He didn't want it to be true, but he was even more afraid that the King of Liang would beat his aunt, yet he still had to pretend to be deeply in love and deceive everyone.
"I saw it..."
Xiuxiu nodded, and didn't say anything more.
She saw it the moment the two old women lifted the curtain to separate them as they got onto the carriage.
The princess's hair was disheveled, and Miaomiao was held protectively in her arms.
She almost couldn't resist going up and punching him.
Even though Cui Xingzhou was already mentally prepared, he was still somewhat at a loss after hearing Xiuxiu's words.
"I...I'll go back and inform my uncle and aunt first."
Xiuxiu nodded, "Go ahead, let's go back and discuss a plan first, and take a detour back."
She could understand Cui Liulang's feelings at this moment; his once gentle and refined uncle-in-law had suddenly turned into a wolf.
It's understandable that his whole family is at a loss for what to do, since they'll have to act along with him later.
After the two walked away, Xiuxiu took out the crossbow bolts hidden in the saddle.
As a habit she'd developed over the years, she would hide weapons within easy reach, and she never expected they would come in handy now.
She didn't intend for the King of Liang to die, but it would be easy to keep him bedridden for months, preventing him from returning to Liangzhou.
After all, he has a special status, and his death would implicate many people.
Seeing that the convoy was about to depart, she hurriedly
Thinking this, she tore off a piece of cloth and wrapped it around her head and face, leaving only her eyes showing.
Slowly approaching the convoy...
"An assassin...there's an assassin..."
"Doctor, quickly call a doctor..."
Hearing the shouts, Jiang Miaomiao was about to lift the curtain to look outside.
It must be Aunt Xiuxiu.
Princess Liang had finished applying the medicine and was tidying her hair when she pulled the little girl, who was looking around curiously, back to her side.
"Miaomiao, it's dangerous outside, stay here obediently..."
Granny Yu reached out to protect her mistress, "Your Highness, isn't Jiangzhou the safest place? How could this be..."
Before he could finish speaking, the King of Liang was lifted onto the carriage.
Arrows were stuck in his chest and legs, and blood was gushing out.
The person is already unconscious.
Princess Liang lifted the curtain and asked the guard, "Lin Feng, what exactly happened? Wasn't the Prince perfectly fine just now?"
It wasn't that she felt sorry for Prince Liang, but rather that she feared he would die in Jiangzhou, which would implicate his younger brother, who was the prefect.
"Your Highness, the Prince originally intended to ride a horse, but he was ambushed as soon as he mounted his horse."
Guard Lin Feng led his men to surround the carriage to prevent the thieves from launching another attack.
"Can you see who it is now?"
"No, we only saw a figure flash by in the woods, but when our men chased after them, there was nothing there..."
It's really weird.
I have never seen anyone with such amazing archery and agility.
I couldn't even see their figure clearly, let alone know if they were male or female...
The Prince of Liang glanced at the Prince of Liang lying on the ground with disgust and said to the guards, "Don't chase after him. His Highness's life is more important. Let's go back to Jiangzhou first."
"Yes."
"Has the doctor arrived?"
"They're here, they're here..." Doctor Sun, who was accompanying the king, hurriedly boarded the carriage, knelt before the king, and stuffed a piece of old ginseng into his mouth.
Only then did I begin to examine the wound.
"Your Highness, the Prince's injuries are quite serious, but fortunately they haven't hit any vital organs. We're not far from Jiangzhou, so why don't we return to the manor first and then he can receive further treatment?"
Water and medicine are scarce here; if you pull out an arrow here, you could easily bleed to death.
He can't afford to take that responsibility.
"Let's go, ride back to Jiangzhou City as fast as we can."
Princess Liang dismissed the servants, leaving only Jiang Miaomiao, Granny Yu, and Doctor Sun.
She whispered to Doctor Sun, "Doctor, as long as he lives, we don't need to worry about anything else."
The doctor understood and ignored the arrow in the leg, only treating the wound on Liang Wang's chest.
Jiang Miaomiao was shocked by what she saw.
It seemed that Princess Liang felt it was inappropriate for her to be there, so she had Granny Yu coax her to leave.
Granny Yu carried her into Granny Wu's carriage.
Wu Mama originally wanted to stay and take care of Prince Liang, but the princess wouldn't allow it, so she didn't dare to say anything.
With Doctor Sun around, she didn't believe the princess would dare to do anything.
Jiang Miaomiao felt as if she had discovered something. Among those who seemed to be all Liang Wang's people, there were actually some of the Princess Consort's own people as well.
As long as that fat prince becomes a cripple.
Does that mean the Princess Consort has the final say in the Liang Prince's mansion?
As she thought about it, her mood improved. She took out some milk tablets from her cloth bag and started eating them without a care in the world. After she finished eating, she leaned against Granny Yu's chest and dozed off.
Seeing everyone else trembling with fear while the little one ate happily only fueled Wu's anger.
She began to hurl insults at Jiang Miaomiao, "I don't know where this wild child came from, all she knows is to be greedy for food and sleep, and the princess still treats her like a treasure! I think she's a jinx, her arrival has even attracted assassins..."
Granny Yu stepped forward and slapped him across the face. "What are you saying? This child hasn't done anything to you, why do you have to speak so harshly?"
"You...you old slut, how dare you hit me! When the prince wakes up, I will make sure he executes you!" Granny Wu covered her face and looked at her in disbelief.
“Go ahead, no one’s stopping you,” Granny Yu said with a smile.
This old hag, relying on being the wet nurse of the Prince of Liang, always acted arrogantly towards everyone, not even putting the princess in her eyes.
Even after arriving in Jiangzhou, they still haven't learned to behave themselves.
Now that her master is in trouble, let's see how arrogant she can be.
Granny Wu dared not say anything more, and only thought about how to kill the old lowly servant.
Upon arriving in Jiangzhou, the Cui family was already waiting at the city gate.
He was taken back to the Cui residence.
Prefect Cui led his men to surround the convoy, only taking Princess Liang and the unconscious Prince Liang back to the Cui residence.
Doctor Sun, Granny Yu, and several maids all went along.
Only a group of guards and Granny Wu remained.
Suddenly, Granny Wu realized what was happening and cried out for help.
Before she could even utter a sound, her mouth was stuffed with a rag...
