    Sick Husband So Gentle - Xi Gan

    ANGRY

    CHAPTER 201 - THEY WERE FACING A GREAT ENEMY

    Luo Wenqing also understood this principle. Mei Hua only saw the benefits in front of her, but didn't know that there were countless women in Hereditary Prince Qin's yard, strong and weak. She also didn't know that Du Ruoxi wasn't an easy person to deal with.

    In this lifetime, she believed that she had the ability to ascend to the top, but she overlooked the fact that there was a heaven above the earth. Mei Hua was indeed beautiful, but she could still be considered a pervert. At this moment, Xi Mei was like an old lady who had seen everything more clearly than anyone else.

    Seeing Xi Mei sighing, Luo Wenqing couldn't help but smile. Xi Mei, you look so much like an old woman who sees through life. You obviously haven't even married anyone!

    Miss, please make fun of me! Xi Mei shyly laughed at Luo Wenqing.

    Luo Wenqing covered her mouth and tried not to laugh. She was laughing so hard that her wounds were about to crack. She waved her free hand from Xi Mei and said, No, no, no. I'm not teasing Xi Mei. I'm praising us. We've grown up.

    Xi Mei turned her head away shyly, ignoring Luo Wenqing. She was clearly more serious about helping Luo Wenqing solve Luo Wenqing's problems and explaining her reasoning. She only wanted to say that Luo Wenqing understood and would not fall for anyone else's tricks in the future.

    When Luo Wenqing saw that Xi Mei was really angry, she reached out to pull Xi Mei's sleeve and apologized in a softer voice, Alright, Xi Mei, I know I was wrong. I know you are teaching me the truth, and everything Xi Mei does is for my own good. I was wrong, you have forgiven me!

    Xi Mei ignored Luo Wenqing, even though she was being tugged back and forth on her sleeve. However, Luo Wenqing hugged her abdomen playfully, crying out in pain. Xi Mei was so scared that she quickly turned around to see if Luo Wenqing was pulling her wound.

    Miss! But the wound hurt? Miss?"

    Seeing Xi Mei's worried expression, Luo Wenqing didn't dare to say that she was faking it, so she continued to feign pain while Xi Mei took care of her. With such a sensible Xi Mei accompanying her, Luo Wenqing felt even more at ease.

    In this life, the fate of any woman could be called tragic, but Xi Mei, who was by Luo Wenqing's side, could not.

    The few black-clothed men on the pillars that were carved with lions consecutively stepped over and jumped into a mansion. Their agility and agility were as if they were flying, and in the blink of an eye, they kneeled in the mansion's great hall.

    Young Master Li! The few men in black uniformly kowtowed to the man that sat on the armchair, tasting tea. With a glance, they could tell that it was Hereditary Prince Qin.

    Any whereabouts? Hereditary Prince Qin put down the tea in his hand and asked hurriedly when he saw the men in black arrive.

    The few men in black looked at each other before lowering their heads helplessly. The leader of the men in black cupped his fists and reported, Reporting to Young Master Li, all the subordinates and staff have searched inside and outside the capital, but no trace of Sir Ji Ming has been found.

    Hereditary Prince Qin was furious. He slammed his palm on the table hard, causing the tea on the table to shake.

    A bunch of useless trash. What's the use of me raising you all if you can't even find someone?

    The other men in black also quivered along with the teacup on the table. They were all afraid that their master would be angered.

    Young Master Li, all the subordinates in the capital city have been searched, including the palace compound. Only two smaller buildings are unsearchable!

    Where? Even you all are unable to set foot inside? He deeply felt that he had raised a bunch of rice buckets, and none of them were as capable as Ji Ming.

    Young Master Li, these two places are respectively the residence of Marquis Zhennan and Seventh Prince in the capital! The leader of the men in black said with difficulty.

    Hereditary Prince Qin narrowed his eyes at the black-cloaked men in front of him and thoughtfully recalled his order to not disturb Luo Wenqing. Hereditary Prince Qin squinted his eyes at the black-cloaked men in front of him and thoughtfully recalled his order to not disturb Luo Wenqing.

    I don't believe that a weak woman like Luo Wenqing and her three foot guards can take down Ji Ming. Luo Wenqing, forget it. You don't even dare to set foot in Wu Tie's sickly mansion. You're really useless! Hereditary Prince Qin said angrily. Why did he raise so many rice buckets!

    Young Master Li doesn't know, although Seventh Prince's mansion normally looks deserted and the guards guarding the entrance are always lacking, but that day, when we stepped into Seventh Prince's mansion, we almost lost our lives after receiving ten thousand arrows!

    The man in black thought about the day they snuck into Seventh Prince's residence. Just as they stepped onto the roof, they were nearly shot to death by thousands of arrows. His heart palpitated.

    I mean it! Hereditary Prince Qin couldn't help but start to worry. At the beginning, he never took the sickly Seventh Prince seriously, he just assumed that he didn't exist so there was no threat to him anyways.

    Now, it seemed that this Seventh Prince, first wanted the imperial edict from Luo Wenqing, then destroyed his plans three or four times, and even used his Famous Garden to annihilate all of his troops. Now, even that uninhabited mansion was this powerful, and was truly a terrifying rival.

    What a sick Seventh Prince! Hereditary Prince Qin suddenly realized something and sighed. He was sure that Ji Ming was captured by Seventh Prince.

    Then Young Master Li, do you think Seventh Prince's mansion needs it? The leader of the men in black cupped his fists and waited for his master's order.

    Hereditary Prince Qin frowned as he remembered the ten thousand arrows mentioned by the man in black just now. He waved his hand and said, Although your martial arts are not as good as Ji Ming's, you are still martial arts experts. If Ji Ming was really captured by him, then even Ji Ming wouldn't be able to avoid the mechanisms!

    Please enlighten me, Young Master Li. The leader of the men in black didn't know whether Hereditary Prince Qin wanted them to leave or not.

    Hereditary Prince Qin frowned and looked at the man in black. Ji Ming not being here really made him unhappy and he had to face these idiots.

    I will personally go to Seventh Prince's residence for a meeting. However, although Luo Wenqing's place doesn't give rise to much trouble, it's not without its suspicions. You guys should go to the Wu Steel Manor and investigate!

    Yes sir! With their master's order, the few black-clothed men could finally leave from their master's disdain. They quickly jumped out of the mansion and headed towards Marquis Zhennan's mansion.

    Hereditary Prince Qin looked at the empty hall. His handsome eyebrows frowned as he realized that his biggest enemy was not the crown prince but the hidden Seventh Prince. He was annoyed at the thought of facing such a great enemy.

    Now that Ji Ming was nowhere to be seen, it was not going well for him to lose his right arm.

    Seventh Prince, right? Since you want to compete with Ben and Hereditary Prince, Ben and Hereditary Prince will definitely not let you off! After saying that, Hereditary Prince Qin grabbed the cup of tea on the table and gulped it down in one gulp. His heart felt much better because of this.

    However, Luo Wenqing didn't know that her capture of Ji Ming made Hereditary Prince Qin know who his real nemesis was. Even more, she didn't know that Hereditary Prince Qin had been pointed at Seventh Prince.

    CHAPTER 202 - INFECTIVE DISEASE

    Achoo! Suddenly, Seventh Prince sneezed, causing the brushes in his hands to draw a line wrong on the paper. Only a man's beard was added to the beauty in the portrait of beauty.

    Servant Mu Er took a piece of clothing and walked behind Seventh Prince. After carefully putting it on Seventh Prince, she nimbly tied a knot on Seventh Prince's clothes.

    It's all my fault. I didn't notice the sky had cooled down. I should prepare some thick clothes for Seventh Prince.

    Seventh Prince looked at his painting patiently and said with a smile, Mu Er, I heard that when people sneeze, there are people who miss them. Do you think that's true?

    Mu Er's hand that was cleaning Seventh Prince's clothes stopped. She knew what Seventh Prince meant when he said that someone was missing him. Without even guessing, she knew Seventh Prince was definitely saying that the young daughter of the Wu Steel Manor was missing him.

    Seventh Prince, do you know that there's another way to sneeze? Mu Er said in an unsightly manner.

    Seventh Prince nodded. He remembered that he kissed Luo Wenqing when she wasn't paying attention.

    Thinking about how Seventh Prince had less coldness in his eyes and how he was happy to be replaced by all of them, he laughed and said, It would be good if she could curse me in the back. Wouldn't she curse me to think of me at the same time?

    Mu Er didn't want to respond to Seventh Prince's words and went to the side to prepare a new drawing paper for Seventh Prince.

    Seventh Prince, this painting is probably broken. This servant will add a new drawing paper for you, right?

    Mu Er was about to delete the drawing that Seventh Prince was about to write, but Seventh Prince waved his hand and refused.

    It's not bad, this addition is quite good.

    Mu Er looked doubtfully at Seventh Prince's painting and was very surprised. This Wu Steel Manor's daughter was so beautiful that it looked like gold. How could it have a beard?

    Seventh Prince, if Miss Luo knew that you painted her with a man called Hu Shun, she would probably be angry.

    Mu Er laughed. However, she was happy because of this. It seemed that Luo Wenqing wasn't that important in Seventh Prince's heart!

    In the past, Seventh Prince's paintings were either mountains or birds. Of course, there were times when servants like them would be included in the paintings. Ever since Seventh Prince returned from the ceremony, the objects in the paintings had become the daughter of the Steel Palace.

    Thinking about this, Mu Er couldn't help but feel jealous. Obviously, Seventh Prince was raised and watched over by her since she was young, and no one else in this world was more suitable to serve Seventh Prince than her. No one was more suitable to be Seventh Prince's wife.

    Even if she was a wife, she would help her husband share his worries. The woman who served her husband was the best, and it wasn't something that a normal Luo Family girl could do!

    Mu Er wished that she could tear this painting to shreds after she had thought of it, so that she could resolve the hatred in her heart.

    I was just afraid that she wouldn't know, that's why I'm in such a bad mood. Just think about how she would scold me like I was a bad guy. She must be really good-looking. Seventh Prince couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth when he thought about Luo Wenqing's angry and flushed face.

    His unmarried wife was really cute.

    Mu Er released her hand from the painting. Her watery eyes were filled with disappointment. It wasn't that Seventh Prince didn't value Luo Wenqing, it was just that she didn't understand the interest between Seventh Prince and Miss Luo.

    Then this servant will not disturb Seventh Prince's painting. Mu Er turned away, tears brimming in her eyes.

    Seventh Prince was thinking about the playful and unruly Luo Wenqing, so how could he have noticed Mu Er's discomfort? He looked carefully at Luo Wenqing in the painting, who only had her face and eyes left. That male beard was quite suitable for her.

    If Luo Wenqing were to change into a man's outfit, wouldn't she also be handsome?

    Seventh Prince thought for a while, then started to add a man's bun to Luo Wenqing's hair.

    Unbeknownst to Seventh Prince, who was painting for fun, Hereditary Prince Qin had already pointed his spearhead at Seventh Prince from the current crown prince.

    Achoo! Seventh Prince sneezed loudly. Luo Wenqing, who was looking at her in peace, also sneezed loudly, causing the wound on her abdomen to hurt. She lay on the collapsed chair for a while in pain to recover.

    Miss, do you feel cold? Xi Mei asked worriedly.

    Luo Wenqing shook her head. Xi Mei had already prepared thick clothes for her to wear, so she didn't feel the slightest bit cold.

    There must be someone cursing me behind my back! Luo Wenqing said, unaware that her white ears had turned red from the sneeze.

    Seeing this, Xi Mei couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. Miss, if this person wasn't scolded or thought of, then Miss's ears are red. There must be someone missing you!

    Just thinking about it made Seventh Prince's appearance appear in Luo Wenqing's mind. It not only made her ears turn red, but also made her pretty face turn red.

    Nonsense, there must be someone cursing me! Luo Wenqing quibbled.

    Fine, fine, fine. Whatever the young mistress says it is! Xi Mei didn't know if she should break the record or not to give her young miss a way out.

    It was just a joke in the master and servant room. Luo Wenqing glanced sideways at Xi Mei, who was holding back her laughter. She could only look away from Seventh Prince as she blushed, thinking about Seventh Prince, who had made her ears red.

    Unknowingly, Seventh Prince and Luo Wenqing became lovesick.

    Luo Wenqing saw that such a thick book was about to be finished by her, and couldn't help but feel aggrieved. In her previous life, before she married Hereditary Prince Qin, Madam Meng definitely wouldn't ask her to learn any virtuous etiquette, which would cause her to not understand anything after marrying, thus attracting the displeasure of the entire family.

    In this life, this marriage was bestowed upon her by the Emperor. His grandmother had already asked Nanny to teach her so that she wouldn't only understand the principles of the battlefield, but also the virtues of women.

    Do you know what the current situation is like with Xi Mei's Du Mansion? Luo Wenqing couldn't help but ask as she thought of Du Ruoxi, who was also preparing for marriage.

    Xi Mei thought for a moment before replying, Miss, according to the attendants in the Du Mansion, after Miss Du was brought back to the Du Mansion, she was like a great Buddha that came to a city temple, and was served well by Mr. Du and Mrs. Du.

    Luo Wenqing could roughly guess what Du Ruoxi would look like when she returned after she thought about Lord Du of that force and the timid Mrs. Du.

    It must be someone who cared for Du Ruoxi. Du Ruoxi had married Hereditary Prince Qin, so Master Du must have counted on Du Ruoxi to have power after marrying her and use their relationship to raise his position as an official.

    Her family is all counting on her to ascend to heaven, no wonder. Didn't Master Du invite Nanny to teach her some rules? Luo Wenqing was curious to know if Du Ruoxi had learned the rules she needed to know about after marrying.

    Master Du should have invited Nanny according to the rules. Everything is done. But I heard that Miss Du thinks that Nanny was a third-rate teacher casually hired by Master Du. Nanny didn't receive any guidance from her! Xi Mei revealed what she knew, and as she spoke, she suddenly understood what Luo Wenqing was concerned about!

    CHAPTER 203 - INVITE FRIENDS TO CATCH BIRDS

    Miss! If Miss Du doesn't learn any rules, won't marrying her mean that she will offend a lot of people?

    Luo Wenqing nodded. She was afraid that Du Ruoxi would learn from her words. Now that she thought about it, Du Ruoxi not learning was the best choice.

    The more ignorant she is, the worse it will be once she's married. I'll arrange for a sensible Mei Hua to go in. What do you think will happen to her?

    Miss Du's family is not that powerful. It would be good if she gets married and gets pampered. If she doesn't get pampered and doesn't understand the rules, then she won't be living a normal life, but in hell on earth! Xi Mei calculated.

    Pet? Hereditary Prince Qin was forced to marry her, do you think that she will be spoiled? Luo Wenqing smiled. She was happy when she thought about how Luo Wenqing was going to live in deep pain like how she lived in her previous life.

    As soon as Xi Mei was smart enough, she put down the woman in her hand and left with a bow.

    Xi Mei understands. Xi Mei will invite Miss Mei Hua to accompany Miss Wu to learn the etiquette before getting married.

    As Luo Wenqing watched Xi Mei leave, it turned out that she wasn't the only one who wished for Du Ruoxi to have a bad life.

    In his previous life, it was she, Luo Wenqing, who didn't know manners and married in order to offend everyone. Because her family's jade pendant forced Hereditary Prince Qin to marry her, he was not doted on by Hereditary Prince Qin, and was even trampled on by Mei Hua, that lowly servant.

    Luo Wenqing would give the same humiliation to Du Ruoxi to experience for the rest of her life.

    Under Nanny's tutelage, Luo Wenqing had finally finished reading the first book on virtue.

    Sometimes, Luo Wenqing really felt that she didn't want to be with a girl. Sometimes, she even helped Luo Wenqing explain to her.

    Mei Hua, you're so smart. You actually understood such a difficult book so quickly. Luo Wenqing couldn't help but praise Mei Hua. The smarter she was, the more she would bully Hereditary Prince Qin when she entered Hereditary Prince Qin's mansion.

    Miss, you are flattering me. When these women married into Luo Mansion, they had already gotten used to it. Mei Hua who was by their side also heard about it. Mei Hua said humbly.

    Ever since Luo Wenqing and Luo Wenqing came to an agreement that day, Luo Wenqing had always been the best for them, and Luo Wenqing had always been the quiet and gentle one in their conversation.

    Luo Wenqing narrowed her eyes as she looked at Mei Hua. Not only had she made Xi Ju and the others serve Mei Hua properly, she had also made Xi Ju and the others serve Mei Hua in a manner similar to Great Miss Mei Hua.

    Everyone is tired today, so you should go and rest. Be careful not to let others discover you, or else I'll tell my mother that I'll beat you to death. Luo Wenqing reminded Mei Hua to be careful.

    Although Mei Hua was blinded by the benefits, that Madam Meng wasn't. Luo Wenqing still had to be wary of her.

    Yes. Yes, Mei Hua replied before having Xi Ju and the others carry her back to the room that Luo Wenqing had arranged for her.

    Miss, if you are tired, I will work on embroidery tomorrow. When Xi Mei heard Luo Wenqing say that she was tired, she put all the needle and thread on the table into the box.

    Luo Wenqing remembered that her hands full of needles were unable to pry any more, so she tacitly accepted Xi Mei and put away her needle and thread. As she was about to drink the tea that had collapsed on the table, Shuo Feng suddenly flew in from the window and knelt down in front of Luo Wenqing.

    Shuofeng?

    Miss. Shuo Feng's face was pale white, but he still held his sword and bowed to Luo Wenqing.

    What are you doing? You should be recuperating at home right now. Luo Wenqing gave Xi Mei a look so that she could quickly lift her weak body into the wind.

    Miss, there is no one guarding her, so I can't rest easy. Now that my body is better, I can continue to wait around her. Shuo Feng had been recuperating at home for the past few days. Fei Shuang's injuries were worse than his. The other dark guards also followed their master to the border. Now, Luo Wenqing had no one by her side and he was very worried.

    However, when Luo Wenqing heard this, she became furious.

    I'll let you properly recover from your injuries. Look at how weak you are right now. What can you do? I'll have to take care of you then! "

    Luo Wenqing said some words of reproach. She clearly wanted to speak out her concern for Shuofeng, but Luo Wenqing had taught her a lesson every time she met a soldier who didn't care about his injuries and insisted to fight.

    She only believed that good words could sometimes not be compared to good words. Furthermore, the fact that Shuofeng was like a clay buddha that was unable to protect himself while crossing the river made Luo Wenqing even angrier.

    Miss, Shuo Feng knows that he was wrong, but Miss, Mu Nu is indeed not a simple person. These days when he went back and forth to retrieve the herbs, he found that there were other assassins on the roof. Shuo Feng is worried for Miss …

    Xi Mei helped Shuofeng up as well as he knelt in front of Luo Wenqing to report his worries.

    Luo Wenqing immediately became alarmed. She was no longer able to use force because of the injury to her abdomen. If she had been assassinated, she would not have been able to avoid it. But now that Shuo Feng and Fei Shuang were injured, and Xi Zhuwu had fought before, Mu Nu's reckless actions had really given her a headache.

    I know you're worried about me, but your current situation can only implicate me, so hurry up and go down to recuperate. Luo Wenqing Ming pretended to be calm on the surface.

    But Miss …

    No buts. I can't order you around, can I? Luo Wenqing interrupted Shuo Feng and retorted. Her abdomen was already hurting from her anger towards him.

    Shuofeng, you can go back and rest, Miss has her own plans. Xi Mei advised.

    Shuo Feng lowered his head in silence for a long time before standing up and placing the sword in his hand in front of Luo Wenqing. Miss, there's no use for you to protect me for the time being. I hope Miss can keep this sword.

    Luo Wenqing received Shuofeng's sword with a headache, waving it at him as she realized that he should hurry back.

    Even if Shuofeng was a hundred times worried, he still couldn't win against Luo Wenqing's order, so he had no choice but to turn around and leave.

    After Shuofeng left, Luo Wenqing massaged her temples with a headache. Shuofeng was not someone who came from nowhere. If he found out that there was someone on the roof, then it must be someone watching her.

    Miss, what should we do? Xi Mei whispered in Luo Wenqing's ear after checking that no one was around.

    Luo Wenqing shook her head. At this moment, she really didn't know what to do!

    Although Mu Nu was quite skilled, he still needed Luo Wenqing to slowly bring out the wisdom that he did not want to risk his life to kill. But now, she was seriously injured and it was impossible for her to fight those assassins head on, but if he did not meet force with force, then Luo Wenqing would definitely die if the assassins took action.

    Xi Mei, why don't you take a look and see if the white pigeon that often stays at my window is still here?

    Yes, Miss! Xi Mei responded and walked to the window to take a look. She didn't even see the white pigeon after a few coos.

    Miss, no. Xi Mei said with a frown.

    CHAPTER 204 - GUEST AT HOME

    It's over! Luo Wenqing gave up all hope. She thought that she could write to Seventh Prince for help through the pigeon, but the pigeon wasn't there anymore.

    Miss, if there really is someone on top, the pigeon probably won't be able to send out a letter. Xi Mei said worriedly, her mind was also thinking about how to deal with the assassin that Shuo Feng mentioned.

    Luo Wenqing placed her palm on the table vexedly. Her long index finger knocked on the table again. Xi Mei was silent. Xi Mei knew that Luo Wenqing was thinking about something.

    Xi Mei.

    Xi Mei is here, Miss!

    After an unknown period of time, Xi Mei finally waited for Luo Wenqing to come out of her thoughts and call out to her.

    Go to Ning Jing's house, Lin Yansheng's house and invite them to my house to catch birds! Luo Wenqing said with a smile. Even she herself admired the new strategy that she had come up with.

    Ah? Miss? Now, next autumn, the birds have all gone south for the winter. Where did the birds come from? Xi Mei was stupefied.

    Just go and tell them it's to catch the strange birds. Tell them to bring a few people along, especially by telling Yang Hui to bring more people. Luo Wenqing looked up at the top of her room.

    That's right. If she wanted to catch those sneaky birds, she could capture as many birds as she wanted.

    When the sun rose, Xi Mei followed Luo Wenqing's instructions and went to Ning Jing's residence in a carriage.

    Ning Jing had just escaped from the tutelage of the crown prince's tutor. She was in the back garden of her residence, pondering over some interesting things, when she heard Luo Wenqing's request for an audience.

    Luo Wenqing? She should be taking good care of her injuries at home. Why would she send Xi Mei over? Ning Jing questioned as she listened to her subordinate's servant's report.

    Previously, when Luo Wenqing fell from the roof, she had actually managed to attract the emperor's attention. Ning Jing originally wanted to take Lin Yansheng and Yang Hui to visit, but her grandfather held her back, saying he was afraid she would infuriate His Majesty.

    Send her in. Ning Jing thought of her grandfather, who had been worrying about her every day, and felt a bit helpless. But now that His Majesty was at Luo Wenqing's estate, if Xi Mei came to invite her today, her grandfather wouldn't stop her, right?

    Yes. The maidservant, Fu Fu, then bowed and invited Xi Mei into the mansion.

    Before long, the maidservant led Xi Mei to Ning Jing.

    This servant greets Miss Ning. Xi Mei bowed to Ning Jing.

    I haven't seen Luo Wenqing in a while. Has she recovered? When Ning Jing saw Xi Mei, she thought of the time when Luo Wenqing had taken them to play at Famous Garden. If one had to say, Luo Wenqing was the best at helping Ning Jing to relieve her boredom.

    Reporting to Miss Ning, my Miss's health is much better now. It's just that it's boring to recuperate at home. Today, I'll have Xi Meili sincerely invite Miss Ning to the mansion to catch birds.

    At this moment, she was extremely anxious. Just thinking about how Luo Wenqing was only waiting beside Xi Ju and the rest, and how there seemed to be an assassin in the courtyard, she was very worried. However, Xi Mei was Marquis Zhennan's servant girl.

    Catch a bird? Ning Jing paused as she took the teacup. She thought she had misheard and repeated the words.

    Xi Mei nodded. Yes, to catch birds.

    Ning Jing raised her head and looked at the autumn scenery in the garden. She couldn't help but ask, Miss Xi Mei, tell me what season it is.

    It's Miss Ning Jing in the autumn. Xi Mei replied straightforwardly. However, the maidservants standing behind Ning Jing mocked her in whispers.

    That's it. The autumn birds have all gone south for the winter. Other than the crows in the imperial palace, what other birds can catch them? Did Luo Wenqingmo fall from the roof and hurt her brain? "

    Ning Jing couldn't help but worry if Luo Wenqing's brain was broken. Besides the ravens still circling in the skies above the imperial palace, there were no other birds that could be caught.

    She absolutely did not believe that Luo Wenqing would be so daring as to catch crows. Those crows were sacred birds of the imperial palace. Whoever dared to kill one by mistake would be a grave crime worthy of being executed by the entire family.

    Don't worry Miss Ning, my Miss didn't have any brain damage. My Miss said to let Xi Mei invite Miss Ning to catch birds in her mansion, and those birds are indeed strange birds. I hope Miss Ning can let Young Master Yang and the rest take more robust men to catch birds.

    Xi Mei repeated what Luo Wenqing had instructed her before she left.

    Odd bird? What's so strange about that? Ning Jing's eyes lit up when she heard the word strange bird. Ning Jing loved funny things.

    Luo Wenqing was always able to attract Ning Jing's interest.

    Xi Mei was troubled because of this. She only knew that Luo Wenqing had instructed her to do so, but she also didn't know what kind of strange bird that strange bird was.

    This humble servant's stupidity swept Miss Ning's interest, but this servant doesn't know where that strange bird is. What kind of strange technique is this!?

    When Ning Jing heard Xi Mei's answer, she realized that Xi Mei was Luo Wenqing's Lili. The two of them were inseparable, and even Xi Mei didn't know about the strange bird.

    What kind of medicine is your young miss selling this time? Ning Jing thought about how Lili had kept her in suspense every time, and though the results had amused her, the process of guessing had been painful.

    When Xi Mei saw Ning Jing lowering her head in disappointment to ponder over the matter, she recalled how Miss Ning had repeatedly been helpless against her young mistress. She then smiled.

    It doesn't matter what kind of medicine my Young Miss was up to, Miss Ning always liked it, right?

    When Xi Mei told the truth, she was met with Ning Jing's squint.

    Luo Wenqing, you know how to guess other people's thoughts as well?

    Xi Meifu smiled and said, Miss Ning is too kind. Xi Mei has merely followed by Miss's side for too long, it's just that she's had a bit of trouble. Does Miss Ning want to accept my Miss's invitation now?

    Ning Jing nodded. No matter what Luo Wenqing said, as long as it was interesting, Luo Wenqing would make her happy again during her boring and boring days.

    Your young miss is already one of our officials, how could I not attend to your orders, Master Luo? Ning Jing laughed. Thinking of the last time Luo Wenqing stole her position, she teased her.

    When Xi Mei heard that Ning Jing was willing to go, the burden in her heart was finally lifted.

    Servants! Prepare the carriage and head to Marquis Zhennan's residence. Ning Jing ordered as she turned to look at Xi Mei.

    Your Miss asked Yang Hui to bring more men, right?

    To reply Miss Ning, yes, my young lady said that the more people there are the better. Xi Mei replied.

    What strange bird? A large group of people are needed to capture it! Ning Jing was becoming more and more interested in the strange bird Xi Mei was talking about, so she drank a cup of tea.

    Tell the coachman to go to Lin Yansheng and Yang Hui first before going to Marquis Zhennan Manor.

    Yes. The maidservant, who had received the order, swiftly went to do some work.

    CHAPTER 205 - A LIVE CATCH OF A STRANGE BIRD

    Ning Jing placed the teacup in her hand back onto the stone table and looked up into the sky. It was no longer possible to find traces of birds there. Her curiosity had been caught by Luo Wenqing. If this Luo Wenqing dared to mess with her, she would definitely cause a ruckus with her.

    Luo Wenqing, who was resting on the collapsed chair and looking at the embroidery patterns, didn't know that no matter how she invited Ning Jing over, she would get into a ruckus. She took the thin needle and carefully learned how to thread the needle, but after probing a few times, the thread in her hand would always remain outside the needle hole.

    Compared to this female worker's embroidery, holding a gun to protect my home and country is indeed more suitable for me.

    Luo Wenqing let out a sigh of relief. Previously, Xi Mei was the one who put these needlework on her. She was only responsible for embroidering the thread according to the texture. Luo Wenqing continued to pretend that she was a girl and did what a girl should do.

    The assassin on the roof must have been sent by someone of great background to investigate her. Therefore, she pretended to be a lady from a noble family and waited for Xi Mei to invite Ning Jing and the others.

    When Ning Jing and the others arrived, he told the guests on the roof to investigate that Luo Wenqing did not have good results.

    Luo Wenqing continued to pretend that she was troubled as she stared at the needle and thread in her hand.

    A large group of people with bows and arrows suddenly gathered in front of Marquis Zhennan's residence and waited outside in unison.

    The three palanquins were also being carried over by the sedan bearers.

    The passing commoners looked around curiously, not knowing what was going to happen to Marquis Zhennan Manor again.

    Xi Mei was the first to return. She rushed into the mansion and reported to Luo Wenqing.

    Miss, Miss, Miss Ning and the others are here. When Xi Mei entered the room, she hurriedly told Luo Wenqing that she was relieved to see her young miss safely sitting in a collapsed chair and learning how to thread a needle and thread.

    Luo Wenqing had long since heard Xi Mei's hurried footsteps. She put the thread in her hand back into the small wooden box and stretched out her hand for Xi Mei to help her off the chair.

    Follow me to the door to greet them.

    Yes, miss. Xi Mei replied and reached out to support the wounded Luo Wenqing.

    The master and servant led a few servants behind them to Marquis Zhennan Manor's entrance. Luo Wenqing raised her eyes to look at the large group of people outside her door and couldn't help but smile in satisfaction.

    Ning Jing and the others were really capable. When she said she wanted a large group of people, she actually managed to get a large group of people for her.

    Yo, Luo Wenqing, come here and let me see if you have a brain injury? Even though Ning Jing and Luo Wenqing had a good relationship, deep down, they were like enemies. It had been a long time since they last saw each other, and all they did was make fun of each other.

    Luo Wenqing was happy to see such a large group of people. They would have the heart to refute what Ning Jing had said to her intentionally.

    Ning Jing, you still know that I'm injured. I didn't see you come to see me for the past few days, and you still insist that I send Xi Mei to invite me.

    Whether they were enemies or not, a casual word from Luo Wenqing could stop Ning Jing.

    Hey hey hey! Don't blame me for this. If you want to blame something, blame it on you summoning the emperor yourself, causing my grandfather to be afraid that I would come visit you and offend the emperor without knowing anything. If not, then I've been locked up at home for several days. Ning Jing grumbled in grievance. This was Luo Wenqing's fault.

    Alright, my two enemies. We didn't come here to watch you bickering at the door! Seeing that the two were about to put on a performance at the entrance, Lin Yansheng hurriedly stepped forward to stop them.

    Forget it. Esteemed guests, why don't you enter? Luo Wenqing waved her hand towards Marquis Zhennan's residence and the three of them entered the mansion.

    Ning Jing also shut her mouth and did not speak to Luo Wenqing. She led Lin Yansheng and Yang Hui into Marquis Zhennan's residence.

    Listen to my commands from outside. Yang Hui looked at the group of men and ordered.

    Yes, Young Master Yang. The group of people answered in unison and stood guard at the entrance in an orderly manner, waiting for Yang Hui's orders.

    Luo Wenqing led the three of them to the main hall of the Central Courtyard and sat them down. After she had Xi Mei get on top of Tie Guanyin, she heaved a sigh of relief as she sat on the armchair. Her face was pale from the injury to her abdomen.

    Luo Wenqing, if you're not feeling well, you should just lie on the bed and rest. Aren't you tired from asking us to catch birds? Ning Jing looked at Luo Wenqing's pale face. Even her rosy lips didn't have a trace of red in them. She was a little worried.

    Luo Wenqing waved her hand and pointed to the top of the hall. She whispered, The birds that have been flying above my head all day really make it difficult for me to recuperate. Although today I called you here to catch birds for fun, I actually want you to help me get that bird so that I can recuperate properly.

    What kind of bird is this? It's almost winter, yet it's not flying south yet. Lin Yansheng couldn't help but ask curiously. Just now, when Ning Jing came to her house, she said she was a strange bird.

    That's right, I sent all of my father's men over. Yang Hui said, he also wanted to see the strange bird's appearance.

    Luo Wenqing saw that her friends had been piqued by her curiosity and could not help but feel guilty. She said, This bird is strange. It's a human bird that can fly over a wall. It even wants to take my life!

    Ning Jing and the others could hear what she said clearly and felt their hearts palpitate.

    What? Who dares? " Ning Jing asked in a low voice.

    After Luo Wenqing booed at Ning Jing and the others, she pointed upwards with her hand. Everyone had to be careful when they spoke.

    That's interesting, hahahahaha! Yang Hui understood Luo Wenqing's intention and pretended that they were having fun chatting.

    Lin Yansheng immediately reacted and started laughing loudly as well.

    Leader, what did you say they were talking about? Why are they laughing so happily? A few people dressed in the same color as the outside of the eaves were lying on the roof. They were listening to Luo Wenqing and Ning Jing's conversation.

    What can we talk about with the young masters and mistresses of these stubborn children? At most, it's just something delicious and fun to eat. " The man called the leader replied disdainfully. He was just a bit worried about the large group of people that Yang Hui brought to Marquis Zhennan Manor.

    Inside the house, Luo Wenqing had already grasped the movements of these people who had secretly investigated her. Although her martial arts had
