Chapter 455 Disgraced
Chapter 455 Disgraced
Jiang An used his claws to fiddle with the pendant on the golden lock, still boasting: "I can't help it, who made me so smart!"
Behind her, three teenagers lowered their heads and looked at their toes, trying hard to hold back their laughter.
Wu Heting covered his heart with his hand, looking speechless.
"Go and do whatever you have to do!"
He waved his hand and told people to disperse quickly.
If you don't leave now, someone in this hall will definitely be lying down!
"Oh, then I can go~"
Jiang An ran away with a big golden lock on his head.
The hall was quiet for a while, and then the little girl at the door came back again.
"Master Wu, how do you know about the affairs of Marquis Dingyuan's family?"
Could it be that he has a crush on her and has planted spies in her house?
Wu Heting: …
Seeing Lord Wu looking for something, Jiang An tilted his head and asked, "What are you looking for?"
Wu Heting gritted his teeth and said, "Find a duster and give you a complete childhood!"
Jiang An:!
I'm leaving first, bye~
In the following days, they were unusually quiet.
On weekdays, only Qi Shanyuan's entourage and Zheng Yan and others would leave the mansion.
"Miss, this is the style of the new house that was delivered."
Zhengyan came back from outside the mansion and brought back many drawings.
"There is a house that I think is pretty good. It is big and spacious enough!"
"There's a busy street across the street from our house, and we're neighbors with Lord Wu!"
Jiang An looked eagerly, "Let me see~"
Zhengyan spread out the drawing flat, and three and a half of the four heads squeezed in.
There is still half... that didn't squeeze in~
Huo Changming pointed to the west side of the front yard of the house and said, "This is a good open space. We can turn it into a martial arts training ground!"
Jiang An gestured on the wall that connected to the Wu Mansion, "We can also open a small door here!"
Open a small door?
The little girl smiled and said, "If we miss Master Wu, it would be very convenient to come visit us~"
Wu Heting (steps back three steps): Don’t! Don’t!
Qi Shanyuan: "Since everyone thinks it's good, let's buy this."
The Qi family is worthy of being the Qi family. When buying a big house in Kyoto, he used the tone of buying a watermelon!
atmosphere!
The house was bought, and the royal guards who had originally followed the little girl into the city and dressed up as escorts now had a new place to go.
Thanks to Zhenglu's high efficiency, Jiang An saw a brand new house when he woke up the next day.
She was holding a candied haws in her hand and standing under a plaque that read "Zhao Mansion".
"Zhao Mansion?"
Qi Shanyuan walked out of the house and said, "In order to conceal our presence, An An doesn't need to worry about it."
The little girl showed off the candied haws, obviously not taking it to heart at all.
The Wu Mansion next to it,
Wu Heting was sitting alone at the dinner table when he suddenly lost his appetite.
In just a few days...
Lord Wu, who was used to the noisy crowd, was suddenly left alone, and he really felt a little uncomfortable!
He put down his chopsticks and said, "Just leave as soon as you say so. What a heartless bunch of kids!"
"Sir, they are next door. I heard that Miss An An really broke down the door and got out. Don't you want to go and take a look?"
"Don't go!"
The confidant frowned and responded casually, "Oh."
Sir, you're not going?
He wouldn't believe it even if I beat him to death.
There was silence at the table for a while, and then Wu Heting stood up in a pretentious manner, "I'm full, I'll just walk around..."
The confidant looked at the food that had not been touched at all and asked, "Are you sure?"
"The small door that the young lady opened is on the corner wall on the west side of the front yard. My lord, please don't go the wrong way."
Wu Heting paused, shook his sleeves, and honestly changed the direction of his toes~
……
The next day,
Jiang An climbed out of the bed with frizzy hair.
She arched her butt on the bed for a long time before calling Nianniang in a sticky voice.
"Miss, are you going to get up?"
The maid gently cleaned the young lady's face with a wet towel.
In the room, Jiang Si appeared from somewhere, opened the window silently to ventilate the room, took the breakfast from Zheng Yan and placed it on the small table beside the couch.
Jiang Si is Jiang An's secret guard, and is considered to be the closest person to him besides Niang Niang who takes care of him personally...
Now that he is not in the palace, and there are no maids in the Zhaixing Courtyard to do these things, things naturally have to fall to him.
The little girl glanced at the steaming breakfast and asked, "Why don't I see Yuanyuan today?"
She got up late, so they never had breakfast together.
Yuanyuan was used to worrying about the little girl, so he always waited for her to have breakfast together.
"Master Qi and Master Li went out together..."
"I heard that he went to a shop called Songmo in Beijing to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstone."
The things in this store are good, and some of the best paper, pens and inkstones can even be sold for thousands of gold coins. That is why the two of them left home early to wait.
Jiang An: "Just the two of them?"
Nianniang combed the girl's smooth hair and said, "Two guards followed. Zhenglu also went."
"Master Huo didn't go with them. He was supervising the martial arts training ground in the front yard."
The little girl felt relieved and stuffed a small bun with browned sides into her mouth with peace of mind.
There were only four or five fried buns on a plate, and she finished them in the blink of an eye...
After breakfast, Jiang An started playing with a gun in the yard.
I haven't exercised for a few days, so my hands are a little rusty...
As the sun set, the little girl felt more and more uneasy.
"It's just some pens, ink, paper and inkstone. Why haven't you come back for so long..."
Yuanyuan is the most attentive. Even if there was a delay, he should have sent someone back to inform me.
"Nianniang, go to Lord Wu and ask him to help find someone in the capital!"
He was the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, and when he handled cases and conducted interrogations, he would inevitably have spies in the capital.
This can be seen from the incident involving Marquis Dingyuan.
"Slave, go now."
"Zhengyan, go call my brother, let's go out of the house to that Songmo place!"
"Yes!"
Jiang An put the silver spear in his hand back into the house and took out a short blade from the box.
Although people in the capital can carry weapons, a spear is too eye-catching...
forecourt…
Huo Changming walked over quickly, looking anxious, "What happened? Did Xingsang and the others get into trouble?"
Jiang An restrained his usual playful and smiling appearance and said, "You haven't been back for so long, and there is no news from you. I think something is wrong."
"Have you gone to see Lord Wu?"
In this strange Kyoto, there is only this one familiar person...
Huo Changming was annoyed, "It's all my fault. I insisted on building a martial arts training ground. Otherwise, I would have gone with Xingsang and the others."
Zheng Yan held the broadsword tightly in his hand, and felt unhappy when he heard what Young Master Huo said.
Jiang An replied in a hoarse voice: "Nianniang has gone."
"At this hour, Lord Wu is still in the Dali Temple."
That means it will take a while.
"Whether you go or not, it won't change anything..."
Jiang An's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "They want to plot against us, it's just a matter of a day earlier or later."
It's impossible for the four of them to eat and sleep together.
As the gate of the mansion approaches...
The servant closed the two side doors and was about to open the main door.
Jiang An ordered in a cold voice, "Tell everyone left in the mansion to be alert. No matter who comes in, tie them up!"
"If you behave yourself, keep them alive. If you don't, kill them immediately!"
A personal soldier responded and left with a stern face.
She walked forward quickly, and perhaps because she was too anxious, she vaguely heard the sound of swords clashing.
This is Kyoto, how is it possible...
Before Jiang An could finish his thoughts, a shadow flashed before his eyes, and he saw Jiang Si standing in front of him with a tense back.
"Four…"
Just as the little girl opened her mouth, the door of the mansion was broken open from the outside.
About a dozen people armed with sharp weapons broke in in broad daylight.
The two personal soldiers who went to get the horses were no match for the four opponents and were injured. They were then sent away by their brothers in the courtyard.
The guards who were halfway through opening the door were stunned for a moment, looking at the people who broke in with strange expressions.
Is it so blatant?
In the palace, no assassin would dare to do this!
Do you think the three words "Xuanjiabing" are vegetarian? ?
"Ah…"
Jiang An laughed angrily, with flames in his eyes.
You like to break into other people's houses, right?
She shouted softly, "Close the door!"
The guards on both sides kicked the nearest assassin on the butt unexpectedly and closed the door again with great force.
These two kicks were definitely full of resentment, directly crippling the two assassins, who fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time~
The assassin, who originally came with ill intentions, raised his sword and was dazed for a moment.
Shouldn't this job be done by those who come here to kill and burn people?
Who is going to kill whom?
They were a little confused.
The girl clenched her fists, her knuckles cracking.
"beat!"
Fight to death!
At her command, the servants who were watering the flowers and sweeping the yard rushed up in a swarm.
Even if these assassins had weapons in their hands, they were no match for them.
The one who got beaten was so horrible!
Under the protection of Zheng Yan, Jiang Si and others, Jiang An strode forward.
Zhengyan grabbed a man who was not seriously injured, stuffed his mouth with his own robe, and broke his arm without asking any questions.
"Ah...um!"
The scream was muffled by the cloth in her mouth, so the sound was not loud.
"Which family are you from?"
Jiang An waved his hand and the cloth in the man's mouth was removed.
"me…"
"slow."
The little girl's tone was cold.
Zhengyan was worried about his brother, so he was even more ruthless and broke his other arm as well.
"If you don't answer me, I'll break your legs!"
"I said…"
"We are the soldiers of Dingyuan Marquis's residence..."
"You...you beat up my young master a few days ago. Madam was so angry that she asked us to teach you a lesson."
"Miss!"
Someone brought over a token engraved with the logo of Marquis Dingyuan's Mansion and presented it to Jiang An.
The little girl lowered her eyes to look, and in her peripheral vision she saw that the man who was answering had his eyebrows drooped at this time, as if he was a little nervous.
"Did you also send people over to meet my other two companions?"
Jiang An looked at the token and asked.
The man's voice gradually became lower. "Sent...sent."
Jiang An suppressed his anger and asked in a cold voice, "Where is the person?"
The assassin shuddered and quickly begged for mercy, "If I hadn't led the team, I wouldn't have known!"
"You don't know... your master should know."
The little girl put the token away and ordered her men to tie up all the assassins and string them together.
Huo Changming was furious and kicked a few more times.
"It's just a minor conflict. Besides, it was her son who started the trouble first, and even went so far as to kill someone!"
Jiang An sneered, "Don't worry, it's not Marquis Dingyuan."
"what?"
Young Master Huo frowned, "Is the token fake?"
"real."
The little girl walked out of the house, climbed onto the horse, and turned back to look at the long string of hair behind the horse.
"Even the people are actually soldiers from the Dingyuan Marquis's palace."
There are many military books in her father's study, as well as some miscellaneous notes...
Some of them are about the garrison on the southern border of Nanshang.
The soldiers under Marquis Dingyuan are similar to the National Protection Army. They all have a unique training method, among which their swordsmanship is the best!
When several people work together in formation, they can kill many enemies.
"When we were fighting just now, I saw the shadow of a sword formation..."
Therefore, Jiang An was very sure that they were the palace soldiers of Marquis Dingyuan.
But it is hard to say whose orders it was.
Wu Heting said that the second son of Marquis Dingyuan took care of his own face and did not tell his mother about what happened in Fan Chunlou that day.
He didn't say anything on the first day of the incident, and then he went to embarrass himself for no reason.
Besides, the Second Young Master might be lying on some beautiful lady’s couch right now, so it’s a question whether he can even remember!
Even if the wife of Marquis Dingyuan happened to hear the rumors these days, based on her hot temper as described by Lord Wu, she should have brought people to her house immediately and taken revenge personally!
Huo Changming followed his sister's horse, and felt that the twists and turns in the matter almost burned his head dry.
"Sister, you are so smart..."
He identified the unfamiliar streets and asked, "Why don't we go look for Xingsang and the others?"
Jiang An: "We are not familiar with the roads in Kyoto. If we scatter and look for the enemy, we may fall into the trap of the person behind the scenes."
So, the task of finding someone was left to Wu Heting.
She went to seek revenge first!
Huo Changming: "Go to Dingyuan Marquis Mansion?"
"Should we bring more people?"
Hearing her brother's words, the little girl turned around and smiled defiantly, "With Sisi and the two of us here, it's just a marquis' mansion!"
Huo Changming smiled and said, "That's true!"
With Jiang Si's powerful weapon, he can even break into the imperial city!
"But sister... do you know how to get to Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion?"
Jiang An: ...
She seems...really...not to know.
Finally, the assassins in a string went from being dragged from behind to being driven from the front.
The servant guarding the gate of Dingyuan Marquis's mansion saw this grand scene from afar...
He was still thinking in his heart, who is this person? It's so embarrassing to make such a joke in front of everyone for no reason!
When he got closer and could see the person's face clearly, the servant was immediately terrified.
Isn't this his house?
The melon has fallen on your own head!
"lady!!"
The servant ran to the yard, "Madam, they're breaking in!"
"The bully has reached the door!"
Huo Changming listened and scratched his ears, "Shouldn't we say this?"
The corners of Jiang An's mouth twitched, and he seemed speechless.
The little girl dismounted, holding the rope in her hand.
She was very strong and she almost pulled down the group of bruised and swollen assassins.
"We are already on your territory, so don't be polite, let's go!"
Jiang An kicked and said, "Lead the way."
Zhengyan followed the young lady up the stairs, walked to the remaining servant at the door, and threw a visiting card to him.
"Here you go, a visiting card."
The servant glanced at the group of people who came with ill intentions, swallowed his saliva, and opened the visiting card tremblingly.
Oh boy, it's empty!
Jiang An: I'm already polite enough to remember to bring this thing with me!
What are you picking?
Zheng Yan's eyes fell on him coldly, "What's the problem?"
The boy almost broke his neck.
