Chapter 201 Don’t rush out foolishly and give yourself away!
Murong Zixi nodded slightly to Zhuge Lianting, then turned around and walked towards the stairs leading to the second floor.
The setting sun shone on her like blood, making her figure even more slender, like a lonely and resolute painting.
Zhuge Lianting silently stared at Murong Zixi's receding back, and an indescribable light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Seeing this, the servant standing nearby bowed and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will go and arrange a comfortable guest room for you to rest."
Zhuge Lianting responded softly: "Yeah."
Not long after, Murong Zixi came to the door of her room, gently pushed it open and walked in.
Yu Da and others followed closely behind, filed in, and closed the door tightly.
My worries are not groundless. This Zhuge Lianting is very suspicious. His sudden appearance this time is too strange and bizarre.
Yu Da broke the silence by speaking first: "Master, the prince's worries are not groundless. This Zhuge Lianting is very suspicious, which inevitably makes people suspicious and imaginative!"
Murong Zixi just uttered "hmm" softly as a response, but her fingers involuntarily began to stroke the armrests of the chair, and her eyes gradually became deep, obviously she was lost in deep thought.
Yu Si then said, "Master, based on the careful inspection by me and Tianyi, I can tell you with certainty that those bodies are indeed from the State of Chu! That Zhuge Lianting is also a Chu person! This is just too much of a coincidence!"
Murong Zixi slowly turned her empty eyes to her hands, murmuring softly, "Why would the people of Chu suddenly do such a cruel thing to me? Could it be that the Queen Mother ordered it?" As she spoke, her eyes became more and more confused.
At this time, Yu Da stood up and shook his head and analyzed seriously: "Master, if the Queen Mother really wanted to do something, the prince's people would have noticed the abnormality a long time ago!
After all, after what happened last time, the person the prince arranged to be around the Queen Mother should have reported the news. This is what Tianyi told his subordinates. So in my opinion, this matter should have nothing to do with the Queen Mother directly.
After all, no matter how capable the Queen Mother is, as long as she avoids the Prince's people, her sphere of influence cannot extend to the distant State of Chu."
Hearing this, Murong Zixi couldn't help but gently prop up her chin with her hand. Her originally tightly furrowed brows were now even more twisted into a knot. Her heart seemed to be shrouded in a thick dark cloud, full of confusion: "If that's the case, then what is the reason? I have been staying in the capital honestly all this time and have never stepped out of it! How could I provoke the assassins of the Chu State for no reason? Could it be that...the person they really want to deal with is not me, but Jun Feimo?"
At this moment, an extremely absurd but not easily ignored thought flashed through her mind like lightning - could all this be related to the shameless man who cruelly abandoned her mother? She couldn't help but let out a self-deprecating laugh, but then she quickly killed the idea in the cradle.
Time flies. Even if that person really wanted to get rid of her, how could he have endured it until now? Moreover, maybe he didn't even know she existed in the world.
After thinking about it this way, she became more and more convinced that those killers were most likely targeting Jun Feimo.
After all, she had said long ago that Jun Feimo was simply a sitting duck that attracted the killer's attention. No matter where he went, he seemed to run into the killer, which showed how much he was hated.
At this time, Xiaolu hugged Xiaobai tightly in her arms, her face full of worry, and she said softly: "My dear, look at how dangerous the situation outside is. Otherwise, why don't we just return to the capital!"
Murong Zixi pouted her lips in disapproval and responded nonchalantly: "Xiaolu, if you don't even have this little courage, then I will let Yu Da escort you back to the capital. Well, back to the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion, so that you can live a peaceful and worry-free life, instead of following me outside all day and being nervous."
After hearing this, Xiaolu shook her head like a rattle and said firmly, "No, Miss, wherever you are, I, as a maid, must follow you! Although my ability is not as strong as Yu Da and other sisters, and I can't protect you, but if you are in danger, I will definitely rush to the front without hesitation to block all harm for my master!"
Murong Zixi couldn't help but frown slightly. She just wanted to tease Xiaolu, but she didn't expect that she would be so serious. So, Murong Zixi said to Xiaolu solemnly: "Xiaolu, if you really encounter a dangerous situation, you must remember to take Xiaocui and find a safe and reliable place to hide. Don't rush out stupidly and give yourself away! Otherwise, I will never allow the two of you to continue to follow me!"
Hearing this, Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu both looked a little anxious and shouted in unison: "Miss..."
At this time, Yu San at the side smiled and comforted: "Okay, okay, Xiao Cui, Xiao Lu, don't worry too much! In fact, the master said this for your own good! After all, we are here to protect the master, so there is no need for you to risk your lives and run to the front to act as a shield!
As long as you can be smart when you encounter danger and quickly find a safe place to hide, it will be fine! In this way, you can not only avoid unnecessary casualties, but also help your master a lot!
You know, if something really happens, the master will have to distract himself to take care of your safety! On weekdays, you just need to do your best to take care of the master's daily life!
As for the master's personal safety, just leave it to us!"
Murong Zixi slightly raised her eyebrows, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said softly: "You heard it, Yu San is right. Fortunately, you went out to play when the assassination happened today, otherwise I would have been worried about you."
When Xiaolu heard this, her originally depressed mood suddenly disappeared, and her face was filled with joy again. She quickly responded, "Miss, I understand. As long as you don't think I'm useless, please don't drive me away."
