Ci Jinzhi

  Chapter 98 Wrath

   This is it.

  In the picture, the girl was knocked into the air and fell heavily into the wild chrysanthemum bushes.

   Of course, there are more wild chrysanthemums on the mountain than this one, but this is the only one that can match the picture.

   "Cousin Ling, let's pick some chrysanthemums."

  Duan Yunling happily agreed.

   "Girl, slow down."

  Xin You heard the reputation and looked over, and saw the girl named "Fu'er" bouncing and running, chasing several maidservants behind her.

  There are people everywhere on this mountain, and the girls are taken care of by maidservants. It is said that there is no danger, and accidents often happen in a flash.

  Xin You just stood up straight when she saw Dai Ze running out of the woods not far away. She didn't know if she saw the girl or she didn't pay attention to anything in a hurry, and she jumped to the side at that moment.

  The girl stood there in a daze, motionless in the face of the behemoth rushing towards her.

   There were screams from all directions.

  At the very moment, a figure rushed over, hugged the girl who was standing still, and rolled aside.

  The wild boar rushed over, and was surrounded by the rushing guards amidst the screams, and fell to the ground and died after a difficult fight. The wild boar was fierce and injured two guards.

   "Miss, are you alright?" Several maidservants rushed over, all pale with fright.

  Xin You let go of the girl's arms and stood up.

  The girl looked dull and was still in great fright.

   "Girl, are you injured?" A maid hurriedly grabbed the girl's hand.

  The girl shook her body and grabbed Xin You's sleeve, but she still didn't cry or make a fuss.

   Several maidservants couldn't help looking at Xin You.

   Successfully rescued the girl, Xin You was actually quite relaxed in her heart, but she couldn't show it on her face, and said solemnly: "Your girl may be overly frightened, you need time to slow down."

  The maidservants did not dare to move anymore.

  Since such a big event happened, more and more people came here, and Princess Zhaoyang rushed over after hearing the maid's report.

   "Fu'er!" Seeing the motionless girl from afar, Princess Zhaoyang shouted.

  The girl turned her head slowly when she heard her mother's shout.

  Princess Zhaoyang ran up to her and hugged her daughter: "How are you, Fuer?"

  The girl finally cried out loudly: "Mother, I'm so scared...such a big, such a big monster..."

   "Fu'er is not afraid, it's not a monster, it's just a wild boar." Princess Zhaoyang comforted her daughter, and glanced sharply at the maid, "What's going on?"

A servant girl tremblingly replied: "The girl is running this way, and the servant girls are following behind. Suddenly someone came out of the forest, and when he was about to bump into the girl, he dodged aside. Unexpectedly, that person was chasing a wild boar behind him. He rushed straight towards the girl, fortunately, Miss Kou rushed out and hugged her and rolled to the side..."

  Princess Zhaoyang's heart fluctuated when she heard this, and then she looked at Xin You.

  Xin You bowed her knees to say hello.

   "Thank you, Ms. Kou." Princess Zhaoyang thanked her, but now it was not time to chat, she asked the maidservant with a cold face, "Which one brought the boar here?"

   "It's Dai Ze, the son of Bo Guchang."

   The terrified Dai Ze was pushed by someone and appeared in front of Princess Zhaoyang.

  Knowing that he had caused trouble, Dai Ze quickly apologized: "The boy was being chased by wild boars and couldn't care less about anything. I really didn't see your daughter in front..."

   "How did you make the boar chase you?"

  Dai Ze's eyes flickered, and he said: "The boy went to the forest to relieve himself, but I didn't expect to disturb the wild boar..."

   Gu Changbo and his wife also rushed to the place.

   "You bastard!" Gu Changbo slapped his son and hurriedly apologized to Princess Zhaoyang.

   Although Mrs. Gu Changbo felt sorry for her son's slap, she didn't dare to have any dissatisfaction, and followed Gu Changbo to apologize.

  Although they are concubine Shu's brother-in-law and the second prince's uncle and aunt, Princess Zhaoyang is the only sibling in the world, and she can't really be offended.

   "The evil son is messing around, he will definitely teach you a lesson when he gets back, and please forgive me, Your Highness the Eldest Princess..."

  The crying of the girl drew Princess Zhaoyang's attention back.

   "Don't be afraid, Fu'er, go back to the tent with mother first." Princess Zhaoyang nodded coldly to Gu Changbo and his wife, and took the girl away.

  Seeing Princess Zhaoyang taking her daughter away, Dai Ze heaved a sigh of relief, and was immediately taken away by Gu Changbo.

  On the way back to the tent, Princess Zhaoyang summoned the guards and gave a few words of advice.

  The dead wild boar was still lying on the ground, leaving two guards behind. The spectators did not intend to disperse, and many people even came over to talk to Xin You.

   "Miss Kou, you were the one who saved the beloved daughter of His Highness the Eldest Princess just now?"

   "It's just a coincidence." Xin You responded with a few words, and pulled Duan Yunling away.

Duan Yunling had never been surrounded by so many people before. After escaping from the crowd, he breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Xin You with bright eyes: "Cousin Qing, you are too powerful. At that time, I was so scared that my mind went blank. How could you Can save people."

   "It's just an instinctive reaction. I didn't expect that I would move so fast." In front of Duan's family, Xin You certainly couldn't reveal the fact that she knew martial arts.

   "Cousin Qing, you saved the eldest princess' daughter, the eldest princess will definitely thank you very much, and no one will dare to neglect you in the future." Duan Yunling was really happy for her cousin.

  Although she is a flower growing in the house, she also knows that a young woman will encounter many winds and rains outside.

   "Saving people is saving people, don't think about anything else, let's go back to grandma." Xin You said flatly, but her heart was not so calm.

   For her, saving people is of course the first priority, but she doesn't want to reject the benefits after saving people.

  She needs to enter this circle to facilitate investigation and revenge.

  Back in the tent, Princess Zhaoyang held her daughter in her arms and comforted her in a warm voice.

  The two guards who were ordered to investigate came back.

   "Have you found anything unusual?" Princess Zhaoyang asked.

  Gu Chang Bo's son has a lot of bad deeds, she doesn't think it's as simple as accidentally alarming the wild boar.

   "Reporting to Your Highness, we found a litter of mountain piglets in the forest, those piglets—" The guard who replied paused, as if he didn't know what to say.

  Princess Zhaoyang's face sank: "Say."

  The guard lowered his head: "Those piglets smell like urine—"

  With the experience of Princess Zhaoyang, she was stunned at this moment.

   Piglets smell like urine!

  Another guard directly stated the conclusion: "It should be that Gu Changbo's son aimed at those piglets when he urinated, thus attracting the sows to chase them."

  Princess Zhaoyang's face darkened.

   This is what the dog said and accidentally alarmed the boar!

  If Miss Kou didn't save her, Fu'er might just—

  The more Princess Zhaoyang thought about it, the more angry she became. After going down the mountain, she didn't even return to the Princess' Mansion, and went straight to the palace.

  Emperor Xingyuan also climbed the mountain today, but he climbed the green hill within the imperial city. Not long after returning to the palace to rest, the servant reported that Princess Zhaoyang asked to see her.

  After many years of troubled times, not counting the later nephews, Emperor Xingyuan's blood relatives only had an old mother and a younger sister. As soon as the eldest princess asked to see him, he was immediately invited in.
