Chapter 822: Protect Her and Her Little Dress
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just now, someone reported to the officials that there were a.s.sa.s.sins here who wanted to harm the princess!
These soldiers rushed over without stopping.
However, they looked at the scene in front of them.
Corpses of a.s.sa.s.sins lay everywhere, and the injuries on their bodies were all fatal cuts.
Prince Guang was lying together with an a.s.sa.s.sin who was still alive.
His nose was bleeding and his cheeks were bruised.
The soldiers asked hesitantly, “Prince is also one of the a.s.sa.s.sins?”
Prince Guang’s expression looked guilty like a rat whose tail had been stepped on.
He immediately jumped up from the ground. “If you dare to spout nonsense again, I’ll sentence you to death! I rushed all the way here to protect the princess’s safety but was mistaken for an a.s.sa.s.sin.”
Ye Siming placed Gu Nuo’er on the ground.
She pursed her pink lips and narrowed her eyes with a faint smile. “Yes, I believe you.”
Prince Guang glanced at Gu Nuo’er from the corner of his eye and didn’t dare to meet her sparkling black eyes.
Ye Siming took a deep breath and said to the soldiers, “Bring this a.s.sa.s.sin to prison and interrogate him. He will definitely confess.”
After saying that, the youth looked at Prince Guang with his cold and deep gaze.
“As for Prince, you can explain things yourself when His Majesty asks.” The soldiers received the order with cupped fists.
Ye Siming held Gu Nuo’er’s hand and turned around, walking towards Jiang Xiaoran and Xie Yinxiang, who were already in a daze.
Although he was afraid, Jiang Xiaoran still protected Xie Yinxiang in his arms.
The situation was so critical just now.
The four of them were surrounded by more than ten a.s.sa.s.sins.
He hugged Xie Yinxiang tightly almost without thinking.
Ye Siming returned the fan that had been stained with blood to Jiang Xiaoran.
“I usually find it boring when I see you always carrying such useless things.
Now, it seems that it’s not completely useless.”
Ye Siming said calmly, “It has gotten a little dirty, but you’re only using it to
fan yourself. It can still be used.”
Jiang Xiaoran widened his eyes and looked at the bloodstained fan.
He waved his hand repeatedly and laughed dryly. “There’s no need for that. I suddenly feel that such an exaggerated thing would be a waste on someone like me! I’ll give it to you.”
G.o.d knew that he had embedded gold onto the structure of a fan in the beginning because it looked good.
He didn’t expect that in Ye Siming’s hands, it would be a convenient killing weapon.
He recalled that Ye Siming had been at ease among the a.s.sa.s.sins just now, holding a folding fan and stabbing freely.
He was simply like a sinister young master who killed without batting an eyelid.
Anyone who encountered him would lose their lives.
Xie Yinxiang came back to her senses and hurriedly pushed Jiang Xiaoran away.
She ran towards Gu Nuo’er to confirm if she was injured.
“It was too dangerous today. Fortunately, Nuo’er is fine.”
Gu Nuo’er waved her small hands, her round and tender face filled with the words “not afraid”.
“With Elder Brother Siming around, I’ve never been worried about getting injured. It’s a pity that those a.s.sa.s.sins always come to court death for nothing.”
Ye Siming squatted down and checked Gu Nuo’er back and forth.
Gu Nuo’er wrinkled her nose and blinked her delicate eyelashes. “I’m not injured!”
Ye Siming’s tone was nonchalant as he said, “I want to see if your clothes got dirty. You’ve put in effort to dress up nicely. I don’t want your dress to be stained with blood.”
He didn’t want everyone to see how exquisite and cute the child was today.
However, since she had put in so much effort to dress so beautifully, she definitely wouldn’t want her dress to be dirty.
Fortunately, even when Ye Siming made a move just now, he was very careful to avoid the sputtering blood.
Seeing that there was nothing on Gu Nuo’er, he smiled faintly. “It’s fine.”
Gu Nuo’er snuggled into his arms and smiled sweetly.. “That’s because Elder Brother Siming is amazing! “
