At this moment, although Lu Xuan's expression was still as calm as an ancient well, the cold aura emitted from his body caused the atmosphere in the room to freeze.
Xia Cao didn't dare to say anything. Previously, the kind and amiable Wangye's attitude suddenly changed. She saw the other side of Lu Xuan. Although she didn't do anything wrong this time, it was her fault for putting Wangfei in danger. If it wasn't for Lu Xuan's timely detection, she and Su Ye would have been dead by now.
She immediately nodded shyly and turned to leave. However, she was stopped by Lu Xuan.
"Wait, I will go with you. You may be in danger if you go alone."
"I will go with you." Su Ye also stood up.
"No need, you can just wait here."
Su Ye looked at Lu Xuan stubbornly. Lu Xuan could only hold his forehead and said, "Okay, then you will come with me."
The three of them immediately walked to the back kitchen. Xia Cao led the way in front. Seeing her trembling, it was obvious that she was very nervous. Su Ye comforted her, "Xia Cao, don't worry. This time it wasn't your fault. Moreover, nothing happened."
"Thank you for your understanding, Wangfei. I just feel sorry for Wangye and Wangfei. Wangye was kind enough to train me, but I didn't expect something to happen so quickly."
Looking at the little girl who was about to cry, Lu Xuan couldn't bear to say harsh words. However, he still forced himself to say in a cold voice, "That's why I gave you the ancient book so that you can cultivate well. In the future, if you encounter something like this, even if I am not here, you will be able to sense that something is wrong."
Xia Cao nodded heavily. It was obvious that this incident left a very deep impression in her heart. In the future, even if there was no one to supervise her, she would definitely cultivate diligently.
"Wangye, we are here." Xia Cao stood at the door of the back kitchen and said after calming down.
The door was open. Lu Xuan could sense that the two cooking maids were still in the room.
"Call them both out."
Xia Cao nodded. She suppressed the fear in her heart and walked in. She looked at the two busy kitchen maids and said, "Aunty Zhang, Big Sister Wang, Wang Fei invites you."
"Xia Cao girl, why is the princess looking for us?" a slightly plump middle-aged cook asked in confusion.
Xia Cao smiled slightly and said without any flaw: "Aunty Zhang, Wang Fei said she wanted to ask you for advice on how to make pastries."
"Aiyo, why is Wang Fei learning this? Just order us servants to make whatever you want to eat. Wang Fei's body is precious, how can you do this kind of manual labor?"
Xia Cao's expression was troubled as she said: "This is Wang Fei's orders. Auntie, don't make things difficult for me. When the time comes, just tell Wang Fei."
At this moment, the other kitchen maid, who looked like a young married woman, also turned around and said with a warm smile, "Xia Cao, why did Princess suddenly think of this? By the way, have you eaten the pastries I made just now? Did they say how it tasted? "
"It's because they tasted good that Wang Fei told me to invite the two of you."
"So it's like this. I've only learned to make those pastries a few times. It was Aunty Zhang who taught me. Auntie, why don't you go with Xia Cao? I'll clean up the kitchen."
"Alright, alright. Then let's go, Xia Cao girl." Aunty Zhang put down the rag in her hand and wiped her hands.
Xia Cao still wanted to say something, but a figure had already walked into the kitchen. Xia Cao looked back and hurriedly retreated to the side. Since Lu Xuan had appeared, she didn't need to do anything else.
But when Aunty Zhang saw Lu Xuan appear, her expression was displeased. She scolded Xia Cao: "Xia Cao girl, who is he? You're too bold to actually bring a strange man into the backyard. If Commander Wang were to find out, he'd definitely press you down and give you a good beating! "
Lu Xuan revealed a smile, but there was a hint of coldness in it. He said: "Aunty Zhang, don't be impatient. I'm here to find Big Sister Wang."
Then he shifted his gaze to the young married woman whose eyes were filled with a trace of suspicion. The coldness in his eyes intensified: "Big Sister Wang, is it? Come with me. "
There was something wrong with Lu Xuan's tone. Even Aunty Zhang felt something was wrong. She looked at the charming young married woman with doubt. At this moment, the young married woman with the surname Wang was frozen in place and had no intention of moving.
Lu Xuan sneered: "Do you want me to use force?"
"Little brother, this is the Castellan's Mansion. You can't act recklessly here. Whatever dispute you have with Little Sister Wang, you shouldn't come here." Aunty Zhang tried to ease the atmosphere. She seemed to think that Lu Xuan was the young married woman's lover.
But just as Aunty Zhang finished speaking, the young married woman with the surname Wang seemed to have made up her mind. In an instant, she made her move. Her body suddenly rushed forward and her claw grabbed Lu Xuan's throat. Looking at her skills, she was obviously not weak.
Seeing this scene, Xia Cao and Aunty Zhang were so surprised that their mouths were wide open. After being together for so long, they didn't know that this young married woman was skilled in martial arts!
Seeing that Lu Xuan didn't dodge her attack, a trace of viciousness flashed in the young married woman's eyes. In for a penny, in for a pound. Presumably, something had happened to the Princess. Since that was the case, she could kill this person and retreat. Her long months of lying low was not in vain.
Seeing that her claw was about to grab Lu Xuan's throat, she didn't expect that the young man's hand lightly lifted up. It seemed slow, but it was incomparably fast. He actually grabbed her wrist.
Kacha!
The sound of bones breaking could be heard. The young married woman couldn't help but let out a scream. She didn't expect Lu Xuan's strength to be so strong!
But her reaction was also beyond Lu Xuan's expectations. This young married woman seemed to practice some kind of soft martial arts. He had clearly grabbed her wrist, but the young married woman unexpectedly used a soft force to break free from his hand. Although Lu Xuan had only casually made a move, the young married woman was able to break free from his hand. This proved that her strength was definitely not ordinary.
But the next moment, after realizing that she was in trouble, the young married woman didn't dare to stay any longer. Her legs suddenly exerted force and she suddenly soared into the air. In an instant, she directly smashed a large hole in the solid roof and broke out of the room.
But wanting to escape in front of Lu Xuan, it wasn't because she was conceited. In the entire Zhong Zhou, there was probably no one like her!
Lu Xuan's right hand reached out and grabbed the air. He shouted, "Come down for me!"
The young married woman who had just escaped from the room and was about to escape suddenly felt an invisible force suddenly wrapping around her, making her completely unable to move. And the next moment, with a sudden pull of this force, she was like a falling stone, smashing into the ground. Along with a pile of tiles, she fell to the place she had just escaped from.
Auntie Zhang was shocked by this sudden fight. Trembling with fear, she asked, "Xia Cao girl, this, this, this is?"
Xia Cao pursed her lips and said, "He is our Wangye. Just now, the one surnamed Wang wanted to poison our Wangfei, but was discovered by Wangye."
Lu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back. Looking at the young married woman surnamed Wang with messy hair and a trace of blood on the corner of her mouth, he said condescendingly, "Speak, who sent you? If you want to commit suicide, I won't stop you. If you die, I will naturally know. "
"Who are you?" The young married woman surnamed Wang stared at Lu Xuan and asked through gritted teeth. She knew that her strength wasn't weak. In addition, she had taken a pill to conceal her strength. If she suddenly launched a sneak attack, an ordinary person wouldn't be able to escape. But in front of this young man, she didn't have the slightest chance to resist.
Lu Xuan sneered and said, "I must let you know, my name is Lu Xuan, Prince of An Ping — — Lu Xuan!"
