Chapter 25: That Was Quite a Show (2)
Every word Luo Qianqian said made sense.
The First Lady glared at Luo Qianqian, worrying Prime Minister Luo might be convinced by this girl, she added, “You are casting mist before our eyes.”
Luo Qianqian pretended she was wiping her tears, “Let’s go to the assassins’ base, I’m sure if father asks around, he will find out the location of their whereabouts, why not pay a visit to their base?”
She wondered what would the First Lady say when they found out it was Luo Jingxuan and Luo Yuyan who did this.
For sure she was excited now.
Hearing that, Luo Jingxuan panicked and he said, “No! Father! That will only incur us trouble considering there were three assassins died in our house last night.”
Luo Yuyan nodded, she grabbed Prime Minister Luo’s arm and begged, “No, daddy, no. Listen to my brother, it will bring us trouble, I don’t want anything happen to our family again. I’d like to give Fourth Sister a chance to redeem herself, I have faith in her.”
Luo Yuyan, how sharp-tongued! She shifted it to Luo Qianqian while the truth was she didn’t want anyone to find out it was her and Luo Jingxuan who were behind the scene.
Luo Qianqian had a thumb up for her.
Hearing what Luo Yuyan just said, Prime Minister Luo felt so touched, his second daughter had always put the interests of the whole above her own, she was willing to let Luo Qianqian go in case that would bring trouble to someone else!
He was only more mad at Luo Qianqian, “You monster, just admit it.”
Prime Minister Luo looked around and ordered the servant to grab Luo Qianqian and beat her to death.
The servants were hesitant, they looked at each other and no one moved.
Seeing that, Luo Qianqian kicked one servant and rushed him, “Just go already, what are you waiting for?”
“Yes, Prime Minister Luo, I’m on it!” with that he led the servant to Luo Qianqian.
Luo Qianqian squinted her eyes and thought she might have to expose her ability now.
Prime Minister Luo refused to listen to her, there was nothing she could do.
“Prime Minister Luo, please don’t. The First Lady, please don’t… … I’m begging you… …” cried Xiao Yue. She was knocked over on the ground.
A touch of satisfaction flashed across Luo Yuyan and Luo Jingxuan’s face.
They let out a sigh of relief, as long as Luo Qianqian died, they would be safe.
Luo Qianqian hid her hands behind her back, she was holding a bottle of poison powder, she was ready to protect herself .
Clap clap!
Sound of applause came from the gate.
The crowd turned around, it was Prince Eighth.
The next second everyone kowtowed to Prince Eighth except Luo Qianqian.
Su Liancheng also came along, people always said Su Liancheng was an isolated young lord, but in Luo Qianqian’s eyes, Su Liancheng was a brat who liked to watch some drama.
Well, Luo Qianqian was actually old enough to see Su Liancheng as a brat.
Murong Yun didn’t free them from kowtowing for quite a while.
Strong killing intent was in the air, the crowd all felt nervous, especially the servants who were ordered to grasp Luo Qianqian just now.
Su Liancheng’s eye sparkled, ‘wow, Brother Eighth, way to go! You are using your internal chi to intimidate people, way to protect your princess to be.”
Ahem ahem.
Su Liancheng cleared his throat ans asked everyone to stand up.
Murong Yun looked Luo Qianqian up and down, he withdrew his internal chi after he was sure Luo Qianqian was safe and sound.
The crowd was still panting for breath after they stood up, what happened just now? Why did they feel they were about to crumble?
While Luo Qianqian had no clue what Murong Yun had done for her, she only found it became cold as soon as Murong Yun entered the gate, she was glad her gown was keeping her warm.
“Lord Su, to what do I owe the honor that you and Prince Eighth are paying this visit?” Prime Minister Luo asked captiously, like a changed person from just now.
Luo Yuyan stared at Prince Eighth, how she wished Prince Eighth was healthy, if that was the case, she was going to be his princess-to-be, not that Luo Qianqian!
Su Liancheng smiled, he made a face to Luo Qianqian, like he was talking to her, ‘My good sister-in-law, you owe me one.’
Luo Qianqian looked at him disapprovingly, ‘answer the question, dummy.’
“Prime Minister Luo, what are you all doing in my sister-in-law’s yard, something is happening?” replied Su Liancheng with a smile, but that smile could be interpreted in a lot of ways.
Murong Yun just stood there and looked at Luo Qianqian.
Prime Minister Luo faltered and stopped, he faltered and stopped again.
Seeing that, Luo Jingxuan chimed in, “Lord Su, family issue… … domestic shame shouldn’t be made public, please forgive us for not telling you.”
They didn’t want to risk it, who knew Prince Eighth would support them or not.
Listening to this hypocrite, Su Liancheng felt nauseous.
Feng Qing had told him and Prince Eighth what happened, this Luo Jingxuan, what a surprise, neither did them expect Luo Jingxuan to be such a hypocrite.
Speaking of Feng Qing, Murong Yun was so grateful that Feng Qing reported him on time so that he could have time to find out the truth. His sister, Luo Yuyan was nothing like she presented to be, she was actually a cold-hearted monster.
Murong Yun and Su Liancheng were impressed by Luo Qianqian, what a smart and brave girl.
These people dared to hurt the person that Murong Yun cared for, hmm, that was no difference than courting death.
Su Liancheng kept staring at Luo Jingxuan, and he sneered, “Is that so? Me and Prince Eighth are like brothers, and Prince Eighth is engaged to the Fourth Lady, it’s fine, just tell us… or… are you bullying my sister-in-law?”
Luo Jingxuan wished he could talk back, but he dared not.
Su Liancheng was a visitor, how could he run his mouth and ride the high horse in front of the host?
Prime Minister Luo clenched his fists due to nervousness, “Lord Su is cracking a joke, we are just here to ask a few questions over a small matter.”
