Capture? Replace?
She was still alive, so Murong Yun immediately shook her head decisively: "No, please don't mention this matter again in the future."
"...... Yes."
The Luan Guard accepted the order and stood up to leave. As he moved, a drop of thick black blood fell.
"Wait, you're hurt?"
Seeing this, Murong Yun quickly called the Luan Guard and asked Xiao Cui on the side to take out the healing elixir and give it to him.
She is a good boss with a conscience.
Xia Cui explained to her: "Luan Yi is the strongest among the Luan Guards. However, in order to capture Prince Li, he held back all the secret guards of the General's Mansion by himself, and he was inevitably injured."
It was also in the original owner's memory that this Luan Yi had been assigned to protect her when she was twelve years old. However, she had many secret guards and had not noticed the person before.
"Later... I won't let you do such dangerous things. ”
Murong Yun couldn't help but feel a little sad when she thought that the original owner had lost many Luan guards and spies in order to catch Li Su, so he had to act like a returning prodigal son.
Luan Yi received the elixir and bowed respectfully before hiding in the shadows. There were no signs of injury at all in his movements.
"County Lord, the day after tomorrow is the Flowing Fire Banquet, will the County Lord arrange something?"
Xiao Cui's face was full of expectation as if she was going to cause trouble.
Here it comes, here it comes, Murong Yun's alarm bells are ringing, the Banquet of Flowing Fire is an extremely important plot point in the book.
In this plot, the original owner, as a vicious female character, will push down her pregnant sister-in-law by mistake. Not only did it directly lead to the other party's miscarriage, but it also nearly killed her. It was only when the general's residence posted a notice to seek medical help and found the heroine that her life was saved.
Then the heroine naturally received the favor of the General's Mansion, and was finally escorted all the way by the future bosses of the General's Mansion, and she rose to the top.
And the original owner, as the second daughter of the general, due to trying to murder the sister-in-law, got herself thoroughly separated from her half-brothers in the house......
"Princess, the Flowing Fire Banquet has been taken over by Princess Anping this time. That little hoof has always been at odds with you."
"Recently, she has been secretly spreading rumors. She even said that the eaves of Que Pavilion were struck by lightning a few days ago because you, Princess, have committed too many sins and have received retribution! It's simply abominable!"
Xiao Cui said with an angry face, looking like she wanted to make Princess Anping look bad.
Murong Yun shook her head and rejected the suggestion of seeking death. She doesn't dare to stir up trouble. If the original owner is the vicious female supporting character in the book, then Anping is the second in command.
Why should a cannon fodder bother another cannon fodder?
With Xiao Cui's face full of eagerness, she waved her hand and commanded:
"There are no arrangements. You should immediately go to the alchemist to get some of the best and most expensive pregnancy-preserving pills. I want to give them to my eldest sister-in-law to help with the pregnancy."
Xiao Cui looked confused. She never expected that the princess would give pregnancy-preserving pills to her elder sister-in-law who she never wanted to see and even occasionally bullied when she was in a bad mood. But as the most loyal maid beside the princess, she only needs to obey all the orders of the princess, and naturally, she will not have any objection.
On the day of the Flowing Fire Banquet, Murong Yun dressed up completely, highlighting the dignity and beauty of the original owner. She was simply the most expensive peony in the world. Before going out, she didn't forget to put the fetal pill worth 10,000 gold into her purse.
The Flowing Fire Banquet was held at Princess Anping's residence.
In fact, it was just a tea party held by the ladies because the weather was too hot in summer.
Everyone stayed in the waterside pavilion to enjoy the cool air, chatting and showing off their status, beauty, cultivation, husband, and so on. If it weren't for the plot, she would really be too lazy to come.
After she saves her eldest sister-in-law's belly, she can build and strengthen her relationship with the brothers in the general's mansion. After all, if the plot is unchanged, the eldest brother is the future power minister, the second brother is the national general, and the third brother is the richest man in the country.
Not to mention that Li Su is going to rebel and become the emperor! If they don't get along well, she'll go back to the original storyline and die a horrible death in Que Pavilion!
"Quickly, quickly, speed up the carriage, this County Princess wants to be the first to arrive!"
Thinking of this, Murong Yun couldn't sit still and urged the coachman to speed up, with a look of impatience on her face.
At this time, several noble ladies had already arrived at the Flowing Fire Banquet.
"Hey, isn't this Li Jiang? You're here too with a big belly?"
A noble sarcastically said to a young woman at the end of the table.
The young woman is the wife of Hua Fu, the eldest prince of the General's Mansion. She is seven months pregnant, and she now has a big belly and is slow to move.
Li Jiang didn't want to come either, but Princess Anping asked her to come.
Now that the General's House was in an awkward position, she didn't want to offend anyone.
"When Princess Anping makes an appointment, I will naturally come."
Li Jiang maintained a decent smile and sat down carefully while being served by the people around her.
It was still early and there were not many people at the table. Therefore, those noble ladies who maintained their own status became unscrupulous.
"She is just a daughter of a down-and-out family. If she doesn't have some talent for spiritual cultivation, how can she be worthy of marrying Eldest Young Master Hua?"
A noble lady said sourly, her eyes full of disdain for Li Jiang.
"Don't be angry, the General's Mansion is not worth anything now."
"It's not that I'm angry, it's just that being in the same place with a person of this status is really degrading."
The jealous lady didn't say anything, she was jealous and unwilling causing her to make subtle movements that made her men accidentally drop a plate of longan on the table.
The round longan was scattered all over the ground, and this was not a big deal. However, the noble girl pointed to the longan on the ground and ordered Li Jiang:
"Li Jiang, why don't you help me pick up these longans?"
She even asked Li Jiang, who had limited mobility, to bend down and pick up dozens of longans.
It was said that this noble girl originally admired Hua Fu, but she never thought that the eldest son of the General's Palace would turn around and marry Li Jiang, whom she had always despised. Therefore, whenever there is an opportunity, she will make things extremely difficult for her.
Li Jiang looked at the other party's arrogant appearance and bit her lower lip.
Still, she knelt on her knees, and she carefully picked up the longan on the ground.
Murong Yun hurried in and saw this scene. A look of shock suddenly appeared on her beautiful face. If this eldest sister-in-law had a miscarriage, how would she survive?
"Stop!"
After shouting, she took three steps, walked to Li Jiang's side, and squatted down. She threw away the plate in Li Jiang's hand, and asked angrily:
"Who asked you to pick it up?"
"It's me!"
The jealous lady hurriedly accepted it as if she wanted to take credit.
It is well known that Murong Yun, the County Princess of Shaohua, does not like the half-brothers in the General's Mansion. Of course, she disliked her eldest sister-in-law Li Jiang very much and never treated her with pretense.
Even if someone bullied Li Jiang, Princess Shaohua would still praise them.
She looked at Murong Yun expectantly. What a stroke of luck. Unexpectedly, Princess Shaohua happened to see her. The princess asked who did it, she must have wanted to reward her for her work.
With Princess Shaohua as her big backer, she will not be able to move sideways like a crab in the future!
The thought of it thrilled her whole being!
