After the concubine ran away, the cold prince lost control

At the bottom of the piece of paper with her name written all over it, there was a line of words.

Where are you? You liar, do you know how much I miss you? Come back soon, come back.

This was obviously written by Lu Ji when she was secretly studying at the government office.

Looking at the small piece of paper, Qin Xiaoning couldn't help but think of Lu Ji working until late at night, and after staying here, he couldn't sleep at night, tossing and turning because he missed her, and was very angry.

She felt very distressed, but also found it a little funny when she thought of how he looked.

Finally, she looked at the small piece of paper, covered her face with her hands and laughed unkindly.

"Why are you so happy?"

The man's magnetic voice suddenly came into her ears. Qin Xiaoning raised her eyes sharply. Because the door of the inner hall was not closed, she happened to see Lu Ji walking towards her from outside with big strides.

Qin Xiaoning quickly stuffed the small piece of paper into her sleeve, then walked towards him with a smile: "Now that you're done, you must be exhausted."

Lu Ji stopped and looked down at his little wife. His eyes, red from exhaustion, were filled with tenderness at the moment: "You've been waiting for me? Why don't you go back first? It's so late."

"I'm not tired." She raised her hand and gently smoothed the fabric on his shoulders. Her voice was gentle and caring. "You work so hard every day, and I can't help you much. I happened to come to the palace to visit my elder sister today, so I stayed to wait for you. Although I can't enter your Regent Palace and can't be with you and add fragrance to your life, waiting here and watching you busy at your desk from afar is also my best intention. We will go back together later, and you will not be lonely walking alone at night."

She has always been a sweet-talker, and men are most susceptible to it.

After hearing her confession, Lu Ji looked at her with eyes that were almost dripping with honey.

"How can you be so nice?" Although he was not good at speaking, he never hesitated to praise his little wife: "A Ning, you are the most gentle and considerate woman in the world. I, Lu Ji, am so lucky to marry you."

"You are good too."

She smiled at him, then took his hand, and they went out together. It was already late at night, and there was almost no one walking around in the palace except for the occasional guards passing by on patrol. The couple simply walked out of the palace holding each other's arms and got on their own carriage.

It was a cold winter night. As soon as they got in the car, Lu Ji held his wife in his arms: "I didn't even bring a hand warmer. Don't let you get frozen."

He was still as careful as before, protecting her at all times and in all places. In this world, she was the only one who could be treated like this by this man. Even his two sons had never seen him be so careful.

Qin Xiaoning was also used to the man's care, so she simply nestled in his arms and closed her eyes. As soon as the carriage entered the long street, she heard someone chasing the carriage and calling anxiously.

"Princess, Princess, I am a servant of Mr. Su's family. Mr. Su was murdered by someone."

Qin Xiaoning opened her eyes immediately after hearing this. She quickly opened the window and saw a bloody servant struggling to chase the carriage. She immediately asked the driver to stop the carriage and asked the servant anxiously, "Who wants to harm you, Mr. Su? What happened to you?"

Although the servant was young, he was very smart. He knew that the Regent's carriage could not be stopped at will, so he chased the carriage and shouted. When he saw Qin Xiaoning, he suddenly relaxed. His legs went soft, and he lay on the ground, panting, "In the middle of the night, thieves broke into the house. There were several of them and stabbed Mr. Su. Everyone was in chaos. Before Mr. Su fainted, he ordered me to find the princess."

Upon hearing that Miss Su was murdered, Qin Xiaoning didn't bother to ask any more questions. She said to Lu Ji, "I have to go there now." "I'll go with you," Lu Ji replied.

With a shout, the driver turned the horse around, and in a short while, they arrived at Ms. Su's house.

As the couple entered the house, a strong smell of blood hit them in the face. In the outer room, there were several injured servants and maids sitting or lying, all of them were covered in blood.

Qin Xiaoning hurried into the inner room, only to see Su lying motionless on the bed with her eyes closed, her clothes stained with blood. The best doctor in the capital had been invited and was busy treating Su.

At this time, Qin Xiaoning couldn't help, so she pulled herself out and caught Su Nu's personal maid and asked, "The wall of this house is so high, how could there be bad guys?"

The little maid's arm was also injured. Although it was bandaged, blood still seeped out of the gauze, which showed that the injury was serious.

"The master was not feeling well today, so he went to bed early. We followed him. At about the second watch, two masked thugs suddenly broke into the house. I was sleeping in the outer room, so I yelled out in fright. One of the thugs came forward and stabbed me. I used my arm to stop him in a hurry, otherwise I would have been killed on the spot. The two thugs saw that I was injured, so they rushed straight into the master's inner room. Fortunately, my shouting alarmed the master inside and the guard outside. The master hid behind the curtain, and the guard rushed in after hearing the noise."

Recalling the thrilling incident just now, the little maidservant was still frightened. When she thought about it now, she couldn't stop crying: "Two guards came in and fought with the two villains. The master took the opportunity to run out. I supported the master and just ran out of the house, two more villains jumped down from the high wall and also ran straight towards the master. We maids and servants tried our best to protect the master. The two villains hacked us and the master was also stabbed."

The little maid cried even harder: "The master's knife stabbed her in the vitals and she fell down immediately. The villains then gave up and climbed over the high wall again."

Qin Xiaoning asked: "Did you see the appearance of those villains?"

The little maid shook her head: "They all covered their heads with black cloth, so they didn't see it."

"You came in and went straight to Mr. Su. Didn't you steal any property?"

The little maid said, "No, she ran away after hurting the master."

As she spoke, the little maid couldn't stop crying again: "Master, you have lost a lot of blood and your wounds are so severe. I hope your life is not in danger."

Qin Xiaoning comforted the little maid, then turned to look at Lu Ji and asked, "What do you think?"

Lu Ji said: "Since they are not here for money, then they are definitely not robbers. It is obvious that they are here just to take Mr. Su's life, which means they are here for revenge."

He paused, and then continued, "The two who rushed into the house should be the best in the group, but their skills are only about the same as those of the guards, which shows that they are not masters."

"At least, he is not a government guard, nor a martial artist. He should be a ruffian who does things for money."

Qin Xiaoning listened carefully to Lu Ji's analysis and said, "You are right."

He added, "According to what you said, the person behind this should not be a rich and powerful person. Mr. Su teaches the art of playing the zither in a high-class family. Even if he has an enemy, he should not be a commoner."

Mr. Su's life or death was uncertain, and Qin Xiaoning was upset. He couldn't help pacing back and forth in the yard: "Who on earth is so vicious that he wants to kill Mr. Su?" (End of this chapter)
