Lin Qianqian looked at the hungry wolf pouncing at the man in black with fear in her eyes.

She had been slow in dodging just now. An arrow had pierced into her calf and nailed it to the ground. The slightest movement had caused a tearing pain. Since she was young, she had never experienced this sort of pain.

In the end, the rest of them were busy fleeing for their lives, and no one bothered with her. Seeing the black clothed man getting closer and closer, Lin Qianqian recognized one of the people nearby and shouted, "Young master Pei, save me! My legs won't be able to leave!"

Pei Yu, who was helping the guards of the mansion against the black-clothed man, was distracted by Lin Qianqian. First, he ignored the fact that the black-clothed man's sneak attack had succeeded and that he had injured his arm. Pei Yu did not say much and instead retreated to Lin Qianqian's side, "Miss Lin Qianqian, I will help you block them. Leave quickly."

Seeing that Pei Yu cared for her, Lin Qianqian was overjoyed. She said, "Young Master Pei Yu, I can't move my foot. If you protect me to a safe place, we, the Supreme Fu Mansion, will reward you handsomely!"

Pei Yu furrowed his brows. His martial arts were not bad, but the black clothed man was a professional assassin, he was too busy taking care of himself.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he and the soldiers were at a disadvantage. It was already good enough that someone was creating a chance for her to escape, but she was still hoping for someone to protect her.

She didn't really want to bother with Lin Qianqian, but she was too much of a hindrance here. So, she flew to her side and, taking advantage of her unawares, pulled the arrow that was stuck in her calf out of the ground.

After all, the scene was chaotic and she couldn't accurately judge Lin Qianqian's wound. She couldn't hastily pull out the arrow. What if it affected her wound healing or something else in the future? It would only restore Lin Qianqian's recovery.

Caught off guard, Lin Qianqian screamed, "Ah, it hurts! Lu JinNian, what are you going to do to me!"

Lu JinNian didn't even give her an expression to show his respect. This young miss really didn't understand the situation. No matter how much Lin Qianqian shouted, Lu JinNian grabbed her collar and threw her towards a safe place.

"Muqi, catch!"

"Yes sir!"

Muqi rushed over and took Lin Qianqian's hand. Like a sandbag, she deflected Lin Qianqian's force and threw her into a safe corner. Then, she stood guard beside Xiao Su as if nothing had happened.

Lin Qianqian hugged her calves as she grimaced in pain, shouting and shouting. At the same time, she was filled with dissatisfaction towards Lu JinNian. The other noble young ladies all looked at her as if they were looking at a fool, not wanting to admit that such a person was taught by a great clan like theirs.

They could clearly see that Pei Yu was guarding beside Lin Qianqian, giving her time to escape. If it weren't for Lu Jinniang, he might have missed out on a black-clothed man and killed Lin Qianqian. Not only was he not grateful for saving her, he was even unhappy about his benefactor reprimanding him.

Xiao Yun stood in the crowd and glanced at Lin Qianqian in disgust, "Shut up for this prince!"

No matter how young he was, he was still a prince, and the grandeur he learned in the Imperial Palace was not for show.

Lin Qianqian was intimidated by his words. She froze for a moment before sobbing, "Your Highness Seventh Prince, it really hurts!"

Xiao Yun sneered coldly, "You're not the only one injured here, injuries are more serious than you. Any one of them is as noisy as you. If This Prince hears another word from you, he'll tear your mouth apart."

Lin Qianqian frantically covered her mouth and shrank into a corner.

Xiao Su looked at Lu Jinniang's nimble figure that was shuttling between the guards and the man in black. Lu JinNian seemed to be fighting randomly, but in reality, she was silently looking for the enemy's weakness and killing them. Furthermore, she had been circling around the man in black's goal from start to finish, not letting them succeed.

Thinking of this, Xiao Su tilted her head and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you going to help?"

"Miss's order is to protect the Prince. I just need to carry out Miss's order."

Xiao Su nodded. Lu JinNian's martial arts might not be top-notch, but he used his flexibility and agility to deal with these assassins more skillfully than Pei Yu.

At this moment, Lu JinNian was not as relaxed as Xiao Su had thought. Pei Yu and the other young masters had really good kung fu skills.

However, her combat experience was rather lacking. Other than the fact that her teamwork with Pei Yu was more harmonious, it was already good that the rest of them did not drag her down. And most importantly, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen.

She had never experienced such a feeling in her life before, but she was extremely familiar with this feeling in her previous life.

F * ck! At this moment, she unexpectedly grew up! Aunt! Mom!

Counting the age, she had only come here for the first time at sixteen and could already be considered late. As she had always been in good health, she didn't pay much attention to it. She didn't expect that at this time … What a f * cking bad timing!

Lu JinNian looked at the remaining ten black clothed people. From their original advantage to their current disadvantage, these ten people had no intention of retreating. Lu JinNian's eyes flashed, could it be that they wanted to …

At this moment, a dark blue burly figure rushed over and kicked the ten black clothed men. After he fell to the ground, he kicked them several times until they vomited blood.

Pei Yu looked at the man in a daze for a moment before bowing and clasping his hands together, "Greetings to the Duke of Yi."

"Young Master Pei, please come here. Quickly tie up these assassins and stop their mouths. Don't let them kill themselves. We must find out who ordered these people to do this. They dare to commit murder in my Yi Kingdom's Mansion!"

The guards quickly took action and tied up the man in black and dragged him down.

The rest of the group looked as if they had just survived a calamity. Yi Nan Zhi took the lead and ran towards Yi Steadfast, "Daddy!"

Yi Jing saw that his daughter was fine, and couldn't help but to laugh, "Daddy came late. Daddy just came back early and hurried over when he heard something happened in the garden."

Yi Nan Zhi looked at his father, who was still wearing his court uniform, and said respectfully, "I've made father worry. Luckily, everyone is only injured. Your daughter will call the doctors over to treat the young masters and young misses."

Everyone patted their chests to express their thanks.

While everyone's attention was focused on the Duke of Yi, Lu JinNian carefully retreated to the side of the pieces of the zither and sat sideways on the ground. He used his sleeves to cover the movements of his hands as he groped inside the zither's resonating box.

If she remembered correctly, the man in black from before was staring at this place …

Carefully moving the tip of his finger, Lu JinNian finally touched a secret groove. He took out something from the secret groove and put it into his sleeve pocket, only then did he move his butt.

Xiao Su smiled and looked down at her, "What did you discover?"

Lu JinNian raised his head and looked at him, wanting to say something, but suddenly sneezed. He felt a warm feeling under his body, and with a bad feeling, reached out and tugged on Xiao Su's sleeve, "Your highness, can I help you?"
