Chapter 284 Letter
The breeze was blowing slightly, and the scorching air made her cheeks flush.

I don't know if it's because of the psychology or the weather, Cheng Muqing's forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat, and his heart was a little faster than usual.

She walked in front of the sedan chair, and the curtain of the sedan chair was lifted.

Behind the curtain, a handsome face appeared.

"Your Majesty." Lu Xiu cupped his hands at her.

Unlike the smiling face in the past, Lu Xiu's face is now full of sadness.He looked at her, hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Muqing asked.

"Madam, Mrs. Chu..." Lu Xiu shook his head, "She was kidnapped by barbarians in the northern border and was injured. After all, I am a man, and all the people around me are men. Mrs. Chu's identity is sensitive, and the villain dare not Just find a maidservant, so as not to tarnish Mrs. Chu's reputation."

Hearing this, Cheng Muqing frowned.

"When it comes to the Cheng family, I don't dare to make hasty decisions, so I can only come to see you." Lu Xiu's attitude was very sincere.

What he said made sense, if his sister-in-law was found in Lu Xiu's village, the world would inevitably have a lot of assumptions.

but……

Cheng Muqing's eyes drooped slightly.

"Your Majesty, there are too many people, get in the car."

Cheng Muqing wore a curtain on her head, and the long tulle almost covered half of her figure.Thinking of that letter and her own sister-in-law, she hesitated for a moment before getting into the car.

Jinxi wanted to follow, but Cheng Muqing turned around and stopped her, "Jinxi, go back to the palace and tell Your Majesty that I will go back later."

"Ah?" Jin Xi was taken aback for a moment, but she nodded as she was always obedient, and stopped getting into the car.

The driver pulled the reins and forced the horses to turn around.

The carriage shuttled through the market, and the direction seemed to be going to the painting workshop.

She had walked the road to the painting workshop many times, but this time, her heart was very heavy.

"Your Majesty, let's have some snacks." Lu Xiu pushed the cake in front of her towards her.

The pastries are shaped like colorful clouds with delicate patterns.

Cheng Muqing twisted a piece, put it to her lips but didn't eat it.

Lu Xiu looked at her, seemingly puzzled, "Ma'am? Doesn't suit your taste?"

"No, it fits well." Cheng Muqing smiled, "What kind of pastry is this? I've never eaten it before."

"It's called Yun Cake, and it's made by the villain's newly recruited cook." Lu Xiu replied.

"Oh..." Cheng Muqing nodded, and a killing intent suddenly flashed in his lowered eyes.

The air suddenly quieted down.

"Your Majesty, there is also this pastry, which is a traditional snack of Dajin..." Maybe because he didn't want to be cold, Lu Xiu pushed another plate of dim sum forward.

At this moment, Cheng Muqing suddenly turned sideways, holding a sharp dagger in one of her outstretched hands.The dagger went straight to Lu Xiu's neck, and it was bound to seal his throat with a sword.

She moved so fast that Lu Xiu had no time to speak, he raised his leg to kick her stomach.But Cheng Muqing also reacted very quickly, and even the dagger in his hand was turned away from one side of his body, barely scratching Lu Xiu's cheek.

Taking advantage of her miss, Lu Xiu grabbed her wrist.

Cheng Muqing didn't hide, but stretched out his other hand, and slapped him on the side of the ear.

This slap was so strong that it made his ears buzz.

There was a trace of anger in Lu Xiu's eyes, "Why are you acting like a shrew?"

The other party didn't answer a word, and when he was grasped, he moved his hand, then switched the dagger to the other hand, and turned his head to stab him again.Lu Xiu pursed his lips and dealt with it seriously.

Maybe it was because the two of them moved too much, the carriage suddenly shook and turned over!
The two rolled out of the car.

Cheng Muqing put his hands on the ground, and a carp straightened up and stood firm.Just when she was about to attack Lu Xiu again, several men in black suddenly jumped out from all around.

The men in black had sharp weapons in their hands.

Cheng Muqing moved, knowing that he had been tricked, he quickly ran to the side, quickly came to the horse, kicked the driver, cut the reins, and prepared to get on the horse and run.

"Ma'am! You don't care about Mrs. Chu anymore?"

Lu Xiu suddenly shouted loudly.

Now that she has arrived at the painting workshop, on the small stalls around the painting workshop, the standing stall owner looked at her indifferently.

It seems that this street is all Lu Xiu's people.Cheng Muqing understood.

Thinking of her own sister-in-law, Cheng Muqing's hand holding the rein felt a little cold.

"Mrs. Chu, you are still in the painting workshop. Does your mother care?" Probably because he was worried that she would not believe her, Lu Xiu took out a bracelet from his bosom.

The bracelet was crystal clear under the sun.

This bracelet was my mother's accessory in the early years. After Mrs. Chu came in, my mother gave it to her as a gift.

Cheng Muqing hesitated.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Qiguo, also likes to use such despicable tricks?" Cheng Muqing looked at him while comforting the stretched horse.

"Whether it's despicable or not, it's easy to use, the most important thing." Lu Xiu smiled.

He admitted it.

Cheng Muqing's eyes were deep.

"How did your lady guess it?" Lu Xiu approached her step by step.

"You took the initiative to approach me and Lin Heng because you wanted to monitor our every move. You said you were going to go on a long trip to do business, but it just so happened that Lin Yan said you saw you at that time. I checked, your background Innocent, I have a lot of property under my name. But because of this, I found out that among these many properties, there are many gambling houses... You and Li Lan colluded, one right, one profit, it's great to cooperate with each other. "

"Thank you for the compliment." Lu Xiu still kept a smile on his face, "We just have a common goal. He hopes that those treacherous officials will get retribution, and I also hope that Dajin will lose those famous officials."

Disintegrate from the inside, saving time and effort.

Cheng Muqing stared at him, and just as he was about to walk in front of her, he clenched the rein tightly.

Suddenly the oppressed horse neighed in pain, and ran wildly. It raised its hooves and was about to kick Lu Xiu.The sound of piercing through the sky came from all directions.

The sharp arrows pierced the air and concentrated on one person and one spur.

Cheng Muqing didn't seem to care, and didn't dodge, just rushed towards Lu Xiu.

She has a strong eye and a quick figure.

"Your Highness!"

The people in black behind Lu Xiu couldn't help but exclaim.

Facing the dagger that hit the door directly, Lu Xiu did not dodge, but went up to meet it.He didn't know when suddenly there was a long sword in his hand, the long sword was like a swimming dragon, and with a sound of "clang", the dagger flew away.

Now that the matter has come to this point, Cheng Muqing knows that he can only keep his nickname by capturing the thief first and the king first.She felt the sword slide down her clothes, piercing her flesh.But as if she didn't feel any pain, she turned behind him, grabbed his wrist, and put his sword under his own neck.

The arrow landed at the feet of the two of them and stuck in the crack of the ground.

Rao Cheng Muqing had already prepared for it, so he couldn't help being frightened at this moment.

"Stop it all." Lu Xiu said unhurriedly.

The men in black put down their weapons one after another.

"Bring my sister-in-law here." Cheng Muqing said, "Also, prepare a fast horse."

The men in black didn't move.

"Cheng Muqing, your skills are really good." Lu Xiu chattered.

Things couldn't be delayed any longer, Cheng Muqing panted heavily, and planned to use Lu Xiu to threaten the group opposite, but found that he couldn't use any strength.

The wound on her arm was painful, her scalp was numb, and everything in front of her eyes gradually became unreal.
