Chapter 54

Shu!”Cousin Shu!”

Ling Xiao’s anxious, choked voice sounded alongside Ling Ji’s urgent voice

Ling Jingshu turned her head and called out “Ah Xiao”, her spirit that had been tense all along suddenly loosening up

A glimmer of relief flashed in her eyes

I finally made it through!

Everyone is safe and sound, great!

Ling Xiao’s eyes were invisible, and his hearing and sense of smell were extraordinarily sharp

The smell of blood that filled the air was sickening to the nose

Bandits or guards who were seriously injured kept letting out miserable cries

It was simply hell on earth

A chill surged up from the bottom of his heart and quickly spread to his limbs and bones

Ling Xiao only felt that his hands and feet were cold and his whole body was stiff as tears quickly gushed out

Ling Xiao in Jingyu’s support fumbled to Ling Jingshu’s side, choked and said: “A Shu, you are kind and delicate by nature, can not see blood, this night must have been frightened” Kind and delicate?

You can’t see blood?

The Xuan Clothes teenager mockingly glanced at Ling Jingshu

Just now, when she wielded her sword to kill someone, there was no trace of kindness and weakness

It’s possible that she can’t see blood, otherwise she wouldn’t have vomited for half a day

Ling Jingshu gripped Ling Xiao’s hand tightly and replied in an evasive manner, “The bandits have all been surrendered, you don’t need to worry anymore”

She also said to Ling Ji, “Cousin, it’s fortunate that reinforcements came in time tonight

You quickly go and tell Great Uncle and the others, so that they don’t have to worry anymore”

Ling Ji hurriedly answered, his eyes skimmed over the faces of the “reinforcements”, then with a start, he quickly stepped forward and bowed, “Thank you, Your Highness the Great Grandson, for your help”

It turned out that he was Emperor’s grandson Yang Yao!

The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was the first-born son of the Emperor and the late Empress Jiang, and had been made the Crown Prince since he was ten years old

At the age of sixteen the Crown Prince got married

The Crown Princess became pregnant the following year and gave birth to her eldest son

The Emperor was very happy with the birth of his firstborn grandson

The Emperor was so happy that he gave him the name Yao, and on the 100th day, he decreed that he should be crowned the Emperor’s grandson

At this point, the Crown Prince’s position in the Eastern Palace was really stabilized

The same year, Xu Fei also gave birth to a son

The Emperor, who was already in his forties, was happy to have a young son, named him Yang Qi, and named him King of Yan

Huang Taisun and Yan Wang named uncle and nephew, in fact, Huang Taisun nephew

He was a few months older than Yan Wang, his uncle

Ling Jingshu’s previous guess of the identity of the Xuan Clothes teenager was one of the two

Huang Taisun glanced at Ling Jishu’s face

Having only seen it a handful of times, however

He had an excellent memory and recognized who the other party was at a glance, ”So it’s cousin-in-law of the Ling family

No need to be polite, get up and talk!”

The Duke of England is the cousin uncle of the Emperor’s great-grandson, and Jiang is the daughter of the Jiang family’s side branch

He is also a relative by marriage to the Emperor’s grandson

When they met, they should address each other as cousins

Back then when Jiang got married, the Crown Princess brought along the Imperial Grandson to personally congratulate her

Jiang will also go to the crown prince’s residence to walk around

As a result, the Imperial grandson has seen Ling Ji a few times

When Ling Ji heard this cousin-in-law, he was quite flattered and stood up straight as he was told

Tonight so many things happened, although Ling Ji barely hold on, in fact, has long been exhausted

At this time finally saved safely, has been taut string also completely loosened down

Ling Ji respectfully said: ”Your Highness, Taisun

Father and mother are still in the cabin

I will go and tell them the good news that they are safe and sound, and I also ask Your Highness to return to the ship for the time being to rest

Wait for daybreak

We will then go to have an audience with Your Highness”

At this moment, the ship’s board was littered with dead bodies, and the injured bandits were tied up one by one by the sword-wielding guards, with blood almost staining the ship’s board and the nearby water

When Ling Ji saw it, he also felt chilled and sick to his stomach

Since the Sun’s Jiang’s Ling Jingyan could not be allowed to see such scenes

The great-grandson casually hmmm, out of the corner of his eye caught sight of Ling Jingshu’s figure, suddenly asked: “She is also the daughter of the Ling family?”

Ling Ji didn’t dare to be negligent, and busily replied, “Yes, she is the eldest daughter of the fifth uncle’s family, her maiden name is Jingshu”

Jing Shu’s Shu, once I am in the corner of the city, I love but do not see, scratching my head and stumbling

Jingshu, Ling Jingshu!

It was indeed a good name that was gentle and beautiful

However, the way she drew her sword and killed someone just now had nothing to do with being gentle and virtuous, “Miss Ling Jiu has been shocked by the sight of blood today, so it’s better to go back to the cabin and rest early”

Lightly threw down such a sentence, His Royal Highness the noble Emperor grandson before whisking his sleeve away

Ling Ji did not hear the meaning of the words of the Imperial Great-grandson for a moment, and only thought that Ling Jingshu was frightened by the mottled and messy deaths, injuries, and bloodstains on the ground

Poor cousin, since she was brought up in a young girl’s chamber, how had she ever experienced such a shocking scene

Jiang and Ling Jingyan were also frightened, but in the end, they didn’t face the bandits themselves

Ling Jingshu, however, took the initiative to stand up for herself in order to protect the crowd, and was taken hostage by the bandits on the board of the ship

Luckily, His Royal Highness came to the rescue in time, otherwise, Ling Jingshu today is only afraid of the fate of the look at her face of the colorful face pale look, must be the feet of the corpse scared

Ling Ji secretly sighed in his heart, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows can not help but show a few points of pity: “Shu cousin sister, you and A Xiao two first go back to the cabin to rest

Wait until this place is ‘cleaned up’ before coming out”

Ling Jingshu raised her head and gave a low hmmm

Then, holding Ling Xiao’s hand, she walked around the murderer’s body and entered the cabin

Her pace was not fast, a little trembling at first, gradually walking more and more steadily, her body straight

Wang Tong, who had been kneeling on the ground until this moment, got up and quickly commanded the guards to clean up the mess

Since his childhood, Ling Ji had been well read in poetry and believed in the teachings of Confucius and Mencius

Although he had also learned horseback riding and archery, but it was just some good-looking flowery gestures, never seen so many dead and wounded

Even looking at it, I feel sick to my stomach, so I entrusted it all to Wang TongI’m a weak scholar, I’ve never experienced this kind of thing, and I don’t know how to deal with it”

Ling Ji sincerely arched his hand and said, “I’ll trouble Commander Wang Tong to make the arrangements here”

Wang Tong, as the East Palace Imperial Grandson’s guards’ commander, had long been used to seeing people treating him with respect and currying favor on weekdays, so it wasn’t surprising that he smiled and answered

Ling Ji’s gaze swept over the corpse on the ground, and he couldn’t help but be a little surprised

Most of the weapons in the hands of the Eastern Palace guards were either long swords or bows and arrows

This bandit leader, however, was killed by a dagger stabbing him in the chest

This dagger is not more than two feet long, apparently very sharp, as much as not into the bandit’s chest, only revealing the dagger’s handle

The hilt of the dagger was also inlaid with a few gems

Which guard would carry this kind of weapon?

Wait, why did the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt this dagger looked?

It seemed like he had just seen it not too long ago Wang Tong followed Ling Ji’s gaze and took a big step forward, pulling the dagger out

Then he handed the bloodstained dagger to Ling Ji: “This dagger belongs to Ms Ling Jiu, it’s a pity that it was left on the bandit’s body

Please return the dagger to her, Your Excellency”

Ling Ji: “”
