Chapter 26 save the princess
Chapter 26 Saving the Princess
Su Leyun refused to let the maid follow him. He took his coat and walked quickly towards the back garden wing.
Princess Anle has a distinguished status, and the royal family values her reputation the most. If people know that her clothes are damaged and her clothes are not covering her body, her reputation will be damaged, and she will be criticized in future marriage negotiations.
By helping Princess Anle this time, she was repaying her brother's kindness for helping her enter the family tree.
The dead branches and leaves crunched under the feet.
Approaching the side room where the princess was hiding, a faint cry for help could be heard from inside, which seemed to be the voice of Princess Anle...
Su Leyun was so shocked that he pushed the door open and went in regardless of the clothes he was holding.
Princess Anle held the shards of the porcelain bottle in her hand and swayed behind the book rack. Her clothes were messy and her collar had been torn apart. A tall man wearing a servant uniform approached with a lewd smile on his face.
The door rang, and the boy was startled. He turned around and saw that the person who came was a pretty girl. He slowly breathed a sigh of relief, with a fierce look on his face, and said sternly: "Where is this little girl from? I advise you to leave it alone." No business, the water is very deep here, be careful of getting into trouble."
“You are not from the Zhao family, who are you!”
Su Leyun looked at him warily, thoughts swirling in his mind.
The Zhao Mansion can be regarded as a wealthy family. Most of the servants in the mansion have children for the family. Just by looking at their clothes, you should know that they are noble ladies of aristocratic families who cannot afford to offend.
Although this person also knows their identities, his language is vulgar and bold, so he should not be from the Zhao family.
Who is he to dare to offend the royal princess?
“Who am I? If you knew it, you would probably die.”
The servant's eyes fell on Su Leyun for a moment, as if he didn't take this delicate girl seriously, and continued to approach Princess Anle with a lewd smile.
Princess Anle's hand holding the porcelain tiles trembled slightly, she stepped back step by step, and fell onto the bed without noticing.
The boy rubbed his hands and said greedily: "The princess is really considerate, so she lay down."
As soon as he finished speaking, he smiled ferociously and was about to rush over. Princess Anle slowly closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were full of cruelty and determination. She raised her hand holding the porcelain piece and was about to wipe it on her neck.
Royal princess, I would rather die than have my reputation ruined and be insulted by others.
At the critical moment, a vase hit the boy on the back of the head.
The boy stopped, turned around slowly, covered his head, his eyes turned red immediately when he saw the blood, and he took out a dagger from his arms.
"There is a road to heaven if you don't take it, little lady, don't blame me for being cruel."
Half of the boy's face was stained with blood, and the blood trailed down his chin to his chest. The skirt of his clothes was also red, and his expression was horrifying.
Su Leyun took a deep breath, stabilized his slightly shaking hands, and led the boy back outside.
If she is defeated, she will call for others in a moment, so that the princess will not be exposed to everyone in the inner room.
“Who is that person behind you? How dare you be so disrespectful to the princess!”
The boy sneered: "You are quite smart, but it's a pity that your smartness is useless."
There was murderous intent in the young man's eyes, and the dagger with cold light stabbed Su Leyun with strong wind. Su Leyun saw the right moment and inserted a silver needle into the young man's wrist with a slight movement of his fingertips.
The dagger hit the ground and collided with the marble floor, making a sound of gold and stone.
The boy's wrist went numb for a while and he glared at Su Leyun angrily.
“I underestimated you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the boy raised his other uninjured hand and was about to hit Su Leyun with his palm wind.
Su Leyun showed her hand before, but the boy was on guard and didn't give her a chance to hit him again.
“Princess, Miss Su, where are you?”
Just as the boy was about to take action, the sound of footsteps and the little girl's voice suddenly came from outside.
Su Leyun's eyebrows moved slightly, he looked at the young man steadily, and said coldly: "Someone is here, if you still want to save your life, leave quickly!"
Every soldier in General Zhao's house has been on the battlefield and seen blood. If they are really alarmed, this young man will definitely not get good results.
The young man glanced outside. The footsteps were getting closer and closer. He was afraid that he would not be able to complete what his master had told him to do. It would be troublesome if his whereabouts were exposed.
“Very good, I remember you!”
The boy gritted his teeth with hatred, caressed his wrist and jumped out of the back window, disappearing in a few seconds.
Su Leyun slowly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the coat scattered at the door while stroking his chest, and hurried into the inner room.
“Princess, put on your clothes quickly.”
Seeing that the villain was gone, Princess Anle's tense nerves suddenly relaxed. The porcelain piece in her hand fell on the bed, and her eyes were red as she held Su Leyun's hand.
Although she came from a royal family and had seen big battles, she was still just a young girl. She almost lost her innocence when she met a gangster, and she couldn't control herself for a while.
Su Leyun stroked her back gently, listening to the approaching footsteps outside, and said slowly: "Princess, please change your clothes first. The servants will find you here soon."
Princess Anle hurriedly unbuttoned her coat, took off her coat without caring about her dignity, and put on a clean coat.
“I see Miss Su Er coming this way.”
“Let’s go look for it in the wing room.”
The door has been pushed open. Su Leyun didn't care about the offence. He helped Princess Anle button her clothes. After fastening the last button, the little girl entered the door along with all the noble ladies.
Looking at the blood stains on the ground and the shirt that had been taken off, Su Leyun gritted his teeth and pressed his fingers on the porcelain tiles. Princess Anle looked at her puzzledly. Blood beads were coming out, and the sound of tiny footsteps came. A group of noble ladies and girls Come in.
"What's going on here!"
"younger sister!"
Zhao Mingyan saw Su Leyun injured her finger and immediately surrounded her, holding her handkerchief to stop the bleeding. Su Wan'er also sat next to her hypocritically and scolded: "Why did you come here? Everyone is worried."
Li Mengyao glanced at Su Leyun with schadenfreude, her eyes fell on her coat, showing a hint of surprise, and turned to glare at the maid.
“That’s what you do!”
The maid Nuonuo lowered her voice and said, "That young man truly returned my maid's favor. He indeed scratched a noble girl's clothes."
Li Mengyao's expression changed, her eyes fell on everyone, and her heart sank. The boy probably got the wrong person!
Be sure not to cause any trouble...
“I was going to change out of my dirty coat, meet the princess in the back garden and come to the side room to rest, but I am so clumsy that I broke the vase and cut my finger.”
Zhao Mingyan looked at the blood-stained crimson Sichuan embroidered coat on the ground, and understood in her heart that she was lucky enough to apologize to the princess on behalf of Su Leyun.
"Princess, please don't blame me. Sister Yun'er is attending a banquet for the first time, so it is inevitable that she was not considerate. As the head of the family, Mingyan apologizes to you on her behalf."
Princess Anle was stunned, and then she realized that Su Leyun was hurting herself to protect her dignity, cover up the damage to her clothes, and preserve her reputation.
“It doesn’t matter, Miss Su injured her hand to save me.”
Princess Anle straightened her skirt, stood up slowly, and ordered to the personal maid who rushed over: "Call the doctor over and show Miss Su Er's hand."
“That’s it for today, let’s go back to the palace.”
Princess Anle raised her hand and was supported by her maid as she walked outside. When she crossed the threshold, she stopped and turned around, looking back at Su Leyun.
“I owe a debt of gratitude to Miss Su Er.”
