Wanyan Zhongjie made sure that there was no one nearby, then took off her night clothes and tried to put her ribs back together. Unfortunately, she couldn't use her strength because of her injury. She tried many times but couldn't get the bones back together.
"Everyone, search carefully. There are guards at all the gates. They should be nearby. Don't miss any corner. Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find the assassin!" Suddenly, the voice of a small leader was heard.
"Yes!" The group of guards agreed and quickly spread out to search. As they searched, they used their knives to poke at the grass. Even a pheasant couldn't be hidden, let alone a living person.
Wanyan Zhongjie groaned inwardly. She looked in another direction and saw another group of guards rushing over. If she rushed out now, she would be surrounded by two groups of guards. There were many experts among these guards. Even at her peak, she didn't have the confidence to deal with so many people at the same time, let alone now that she was seriously injured.
Biting her red lips, Wanyan Zhongjie shrank back into the artificial hill. Her only hope was that these people wouldn't find her. But she also understood that the possibility of this was very small. Although this place was hidden, with so many guards searching everywhere, they would find this place sooner or later.
Just as she was worrying, Wanyan Zhongjie suddenly saw the leader of the guards look in her direction. Then, he pulled out his knife and walked over to the artificial hill with a serious expression.
Wanyan Zhongjie gripped the dagger in her hand. A thin layer of sweat appeared on her temples. If things didn't work out, she had to kill herself. Otherwise, if she became a prisoner of the enemy, she wouldn't have the chance to do so even if she wanted to.
The Song and the Jin were enemies. Especially after the Jingkang Rebellion, many imperial concubines and princesses of the Song Dynasty became tools for the Jin to vent their lust. If she fell into the hands of the Song, she shuddered at the thought of what would happen to her.
Although the Jin women didn't value chastity as much as the women of Jiangnan, it was one thing to be open-minded and another to be humiliated. Moreover, Wanyan Zhongjie was much more conservative than the average Jin woman because of what had happened to her mother a few years ago.
Seeing that the man was getting closer and closer, Wanyan Zhongjie decided to take advantage of the moment the man came to investigate and launch a sudden attack. As he slowly unsheathed his dagger, he fumbled with the night clothes he had just taken off. Unexpectedly, he felt a warm hand.
Even though she had always been courageous since she was a child, she couldn't help but have goosebumps all over her body. If it wasn't for the consciousness in her mind warning her not to make a sound and alert the guards outside, her scream would have already pierced through the night sky.
Turning his head, he saw a young man looking at him with a grin. His face was filled with a mischievous look. Who else could it be other than Jia Baoyu who had taken advantage of him during the day?
It turned out that Song Qingshu heard the commotion and came out to investigate. In the end, the assassin was not Zhou Zhiruo or Indigo Phoenix. However, Wanyan Zhongjie was one of his people. Naturally, he could not leave her to die. Seeing that she had nowhere to go, he hurriedly appeared to help.
"Shh …" Song Qingshu made a shushing gesture and pointed to the night clothes she had taken off. "Take off your clothes."
The reason why Wanyan Zhongjie had broken into the Jia Residence at night was to take revenge for being taken advantage of by him during the day. The reason why she had ended up in such a state was also because of him. At this moment, when she saw that he actually wanted to take off her clothes, new hatred and old hatred welled up in her heart. She couldn't care less and brandished her dagger to stab him. She thought that it wouldn't be a loss to have him as a scapegoat before she died.
However, as soon as she made her move, she felt her whole body go numb and she could no longer move. She was shocked and scared. Suddenly, she heard him say, "You really take my kindness for granted. You women's thoughts are too dirty."
Song Qingshu looked as if he was grieving. In fact, how could he not know that there was a hidden meaning in his words just now?
"Who is it?" Although the two of them acted quickly, it was inevitable that they would make some noise and attract the attention of the guards outside. The leader of the guards hurriedly made a hand gesture and ordered his subordinates to surround them from behind the rock garden.
Wanyan Zhongjie's heart had long since turned ice-cold. This foppish good-for-nothing was actually hiding his strength. If it was just him alone, she wouldn't be able to resist. What difference would it make if there were more or less guards outside?
While she was still in a daze, Song Qingshu casually waved his hand. She didn't know how he did it, but he took off Wanyan Zhongjie's night clothes and put them on himself. The whole process was as smooth as flowing water.
"Let me borrow your veil." Song Qingshu smiled slightly. Without waiting for her to react, he took off the black veil and covered his face with it.
At this moment, the guards had already surrounded the entrance of the rock garden. Just as they were about to send someone in to investigate, Song Qingshu's entire body shot out like a cannonball. Immediately, a series of screams rang out.
"The assassin ran to the master's study. Go after him!" Seeing the direction of the black shadow, the leader of the guards was shocked and angry. If the assassin broke into the range of Jia Shidao's study, he would definitely be in trouble. He hurriedly ordered his subordinates to chase after him.
Wanyan Zhongjie hid in the rock garden and was dumbfounded. She couldn't figure out why he would help her. Asking the guards to come up and tie her up and send her to the bedroom was in line with the legendary character of a lecherous good-for-nothing.
However, what surprised her even more was the Lightness Skills that he had shown just now. It was really amazing. No wonder she didn't notice that he was standing behind her.
While she was in a daze, she suddenly heard a teasing voice. "What are you daydreaming about? Are you thinking about me?"
Wanyan Zhongjie turned around and saw that he was leaning against the rock garden and looking at her with a faint smile.
"Didn't you go that way?" Wanyan Zhongjie was stunned.
"Those people were too slow, and I dropped them." Song Qingshu answered casually. Then he took off the black veil on his face. "This thing is a little small, and it's suffocating. The only good thing is that it's a little fragrant."
Wanyan Zhongjie raised her eyebrows. "Lecher!"
Song Qingshu shrugged. "I didn't say that I wasn't. You can go to Lin 'an and ask around. Jia Baoyu is definitely worthy of this title."
"Humph!" Wanyan Zhongjie snorted and turned around. She was thinking quickly, "How can I get out of danger? Alas, I was too reckless this time. If I had Ouyang Feng with me, I wouldn't have been so embarrassed."
Song Qingshu had sneaked out of the study for a while. He was worried that he would be discovered by Chen Jian, so he didn't have time to flirt with the little girl. He directly went forward and held Wanyan Zhongjie in his arms.
"Hey? What are you doing! Let go of me! "Wanyan Zhongjie was shocked and angry to be held in the arms of a strange man. She tried to struggle out of his embrace, but unfortunately, her acupoints were sealed and she had no strength left in her body. How could she move?
Ever since she was born, she had never been so close to a man other than Song QingShu. That kind of feeling was both frightening and terrifying.
But what surprised her the most was that she didn't feel disgusted being held by this man. Instead, he seemed to have a faint aura that made her feel comfortable. When she realized this, she became even more terrified.
"Behave yourself. Otherwise, your injuries will worsen." Feeling the girl's slightly wriggling body, Song QingShu slapped her tender buttocks.
If it was in his previous life, Song Qingshu would never have acted so rashly. Even a year or two ago, he wouldn't have been so abrupt. But the current him was no longer the same as before. He was no longer entangled in the affairs of men and women. In his heart, there was only the world. Although he knew that this kind of action would cause trouble for women, he had no interest in paying attention to it.
Perhaps in the eyes of the world, this kind of action was frivolous. But with his current status and outlook, he didn't care about the rules of the secular world.
Of course, he could also patiently explain that the reason why he told her not to move was to prevent her injuries from worsen. If her body twisted and broke, causing her ribs to pierce into her internal organs, then even a Great All-Embracing Golden Immortal would find it difficult to save her. Unfortunately, Song Qingshu found it troublesome and simply spanked her butt.
Wanyan Zhongjie's mouth fell open. After a short moment of silence, she said in a voice as cold as ice, "Try hitting me again!"
Song Qingshu chuckled and slapped her again.
Wanyan Zhongjie finally exploded. "You despicable, shameless, and vulgar Song pig. I, Wanyan Zhongjie, swear that one day, I will make you beg for death."
Song Qingshu ignored her and slapped her again. Every time Wanyan Zhongjie scolded him, he would slap her again. In the end, Wanyan Zhongjie begged, "I beg you, please don't hit me anymore."
There was a hint of sobbing in her voice, and at the same time, it was mixed with a strange kind of trembling. Song Qingshu looked down and saw that her eyes were faintly filled with tears. Her natural peach blossom eyes gave her a kind of seductive feeling at a young age.
"If you're obedient, then I won't hit you." On the way, Wanyan Zhongjie's scolding alarmed many imperial bodyguards. However, Song Qingshu relied on his excellent qinggong and turned left and right while carrying her. Finally, he stealthily returned to the courtyard where the study was located and stopped.
The courtyard was originally heavily guarded. Previously, Song Qingshu had been able to force his way out by himself. However, now that there were assassins in the residence, the hidden guards were on full alert. Every one of them had their eyes and ears open in all directions. It was impossible for him to carry someone in.
However, he had another way. He stretched out his hand and a handful of crushed stones on the ground flew into his hand. Then, he flicked his finger and a light sound came from a hundred feet away.
"Who is it?" Although the sound was light, it was enough to alarm the guards. Immediately, someone appeared and surrounded the source of the sound.
Song QingShu flicked his ten fingers continuously, and stones shot out one after another. Faint sounds came from the courtyard incessantly, as if a Qinggong expert was quickly escaping in the courtyard. All the guards in the courtyard had finally been mobilized by him.
Taking advantage of the fact that the guards were distracted, Song Qingshu carried Wanyan Zhongjie and moved like a breeze. When he stopped, he was already in the study.
Wanyan Zhongjie's small mouth was slightly open. She had witnessed the entire process and felt that it was simply amazing. For a moment, she forgot about the burning humiliation coming from her butt.
