The smell of blood!
Jian Yu slowly opened her eyes and observed the surroundings without leaving any trace. Birds and cicadas were chirping softly in her ears, and there was also a slight sound of water flowing. There was a rockery outside the window, with a small lake underneath. She glanced at it when she just came in. The scenery was pleasant.
It is also convenient for Tibetans!
She slowly sat up and murmured softly: "It's a little hot. Go ask them to put in more ice."
Jian Yu sleeps on the second floor of the attic, while Hongmei and other maids guard the first floor. If she raises her voice to call someone, they can hear her, but it will take time to get up.
So Jian Yu planned to leave this place of right and wrong without alerting the enemy. When she is gone, the Zhenguo General's Mansion will arrest people no matter how they come in. It will be none of her business.
The plan was good, but unfortunately, after taking only two steps, Jian Yu heard a lazy and angry voice: "What are you going to do, Princess?"
Jian Yu's hair stood on end. She was alert and at the same time, she felt that the voice looked familiar. When she turned around and looked again, Jian Yu recognized it. It was Wu Sheng on the stage!
The man was covering his wrist, with blood seeping out from between his fingers.
Mrs. Zhang is holding a banquet today. The inspection of people entering the mansion of General Zhenguo will be looser. After all, he is General Zhenguo who came down from the battlefield, so the defense in the mansion is extremely strict.
A few days ago, the secret guard almost got hit. The mansion was not only heavily guarded, but the courtyard where General Zhenguo was located also had a formation mechanism. Zhou Jinyan was accidentally hit by a hidden weapon today.
After the mechanism was triggered, the guards found blood stains on the hidden weapon and immediately began to search. Zhou Jinyan was able to hide in the backyard through his identity as a martial artist. The guards took away all the members of the theater troupe for investigation, and Zhou Jinyan had no choice but to hide. The hiding place was in the right place. It was the attic. Not long after he rested here, Jian Yu came up.
Zhou Jinyan didn't realize that Jian Yu had noticed him, but when he heard her muttering, he realized something was wrong with Jian Yu.
Zhou Jinyan, who knew Jian Yu somewhat these days, knew that Jian Yu was very afraid of the cold. She would wear a cloak in the carriage on the way back from the villa, and she would never feel hot in the cool temperature of the attic.
He obviously realized something was wrong, so he made an excuse to leave.
Seeing the reaction of the other party's body stiffening and then slowly turning around when he made a sound, Zhou Jinyan knew that he had guessed correctly.
Seeing Jian Yu's eyes widening, her lips pursed hard, and her right foot stepping back half a step, ready to run away or call out loudly at any time, Zhou Jinyan raised his hand and touched his face, oh, he doesn't look like he's in charge anymore. .
Seeing Wu Sheng's actions, Jian Yu's scalp was numb and cold sweat broke out on her forehead. What was this man doing when he looked at her and then touched his face with his hands? Is he a pervert who likes skinning and bone picking? !
Jian Yu was very nervous, her breathing was rising and falling violently. She was just a weak woman, scared!
"It's me." Zhou Jinyan said helplessly. If he didn't speak, the little fox would scare himself to death.
Jian Yu tilted her head when she heard this voice. Her sweaty hair stuck to her forehead. Her eyes were wet with tears after staring for too long. Her eyes blinked, and her throat became dry and her voice increased. The tone is relaxed and doubtful, sounding like a squealing little fox cub.
"Is it Mr. Rong?"
Seeing Jian Yu like this, Zhou Jinyan's Adam's apple rolled slightly, he hummed and looked away and said: "Don't stand in the ventilation area at the entrance of the stairs, be careful of getting a headache."
What a dog assassin! No wonder the voice sounded familiar.
Wiping the sweat from her forehead, Jian Yu hurriedly sat back on the bed. She was sweating coldly and was very likely to catch the cold if she was exposed to the wind. She was very weak!
Jian Yu first took a sip of hot tea to calm down her mood, then she exhaled a breath of turbid air and cursed in her heart, dog assassin! She doesn't know how to show up every time if she doesn't scare her, right?
"What's going on with you?"
Her eyes fell on Zhou Jinyan's face, and she asked again: "Is this your true face?"
If he grew up like this, the dog assassin would be quite handsome, with a bit of heroism and cold arrogance, a bit like the cold killer male lead. It would somehow make sense to have an emotional entanglement with the heroine.
Zhou Jinyan answered the second question first. He said very matter-of-factly: "No, not one-tenth of my original appearance."
Jian Yu:......
This narcissistic daffodil!
"Why did you come to the General's Mansion disguised as a martial artist?" Glancing at Zhou Jinyan's wrist, Jian Yu continued, "Why are you still injured?"
"Helping a friend do something." Zhou Jinyan answered concisely and to the point. Seeing Jian Yu frowning in disapproval, he added, "Don't worry, the princess will not be harmed."
Seeing the other party's calm tone, Jian Yu raised her eyebrows slightly. Did she show it so obviously? Indeed, the first thing I thought about was what to do if I was caught and implicated in Prince Jing's Mansion.
But looking at that unfamiliar face, the housekeeper Rong Er in Prince Jing's Mansion also had a fake face. Even if he was caught, he wouldn't be able to get along with him. If he got close to him, she could pretend to be the one who was deceived.
Thinking of this, Jian Yu felt that she had to win over people's hearts. Although dog assassins are dangerous, they are useful!
"Master Rong, where are you thinking? I think it's not good for you to put yourself in danger like this!" As she said that, Jian Yu took out a small porcelain bottle from her pocket, shook it and said, "Put some medicine on?"
Without waiting for Zhou Jinyan to react, Jian Yu came closer, pulled the other person's sleeve and raised his arm to see his injuries. There were two scratches in total, the outer wound was deeper, and it was the one that was bleeding continuously.
Jian Yu opened the porcelain bottle and sprinkled the medicinal powder on it, and the bleeding soon stopped.
Looking around the room, Jian Yu took out her handkerchief and pressed it on Zhou Jinyan's wound, and then said: "Hold on for a quarter of an hour, and then go to the lake to clean the blood on your body. There is no embroidery on this handkerchief. Just Just throw it away..."
Jian Yu was not in a hurry to know what Zhou Jinyan had done. Anyway, his Jianghu friends would come in a few days, so she would just ask about it then.
She first uses gentle tricks to get closer to each other, and if this continues, she will become her own person sooner or later! For her use! Jian Yu's mind was full of calculations.
"It won't be a problem if the wound touches water after a quarter of an hour. Just hide the wound and get out quickly. It won't be easy for you when General Zhenguo comes back in the evening."
Jian Yu wanted to explain something else, but there was a knock on the door outside. Hongmei whispered: "Master, are you awake? The emperor sent someone to summon you to the palace."
It must be Mrs. Gu who spoke ill of the master! Hongmei's eyebrows were a little angry.
"We can't see the fireworks anymore." Jian Yu complained irritably. In fact, what she was thinking was that she could no longer maintain a relationship with Mrs. Zhang.
"I'm leaving first, please remember to be careful."
After Jian Yu said this, she turned around and walked out.
Unbeknownst to her when she left, Zhou Jinyan stared blankly at the bandage covering the wound for a long time in the attic, until noisy footsteps came from outside. It was the inspector who learned that Princess Jing was not there and came to the attic to search for someone.
Zhou Jinyan then ducked out of the window and left along the gap in the rockery.
