Second marriage to the regent

Chapter 8
Li Xiangyue had been suffering from a high fever and was unconscious since she was rescued from the lake.

The matter was reported to the Queen's Palace. When the Queen learned about it, she became furious and called everyone in the Jing'an Hou Mansion.

"Xi'er, you go back first, I'm here!"

As soon as Li Nanyu stepped into the house, she saw Su Junxi anxiously standing by the side and reminded her.

"What happens to the princess concerns the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion. As the Marquis of Jing'an's wife, how can I just sit idly by and ignore it?"

After all, she is still a member of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion. If the emperor punishes her, she will not be able to escape.

Li Nanyu wanted to say something else, but she saw Yan'er coming to report in a hurry: "Madam, the Queen has summoned you and asked you to enter the palace immediately!"

Su Junxi already thought that those in the Hou Mansion had put all the responsibilities on herself.

"Qiuyue, go inform the Queen Mother." Li Nanyu turned around and ordered.

"The slave is going here."

"Thank you, sister Yu." Su Junxi thanked her and left in a hurry.

Halfway through, Yingshi complained at the side: "The people in the Hou Mansion must have blamed all the trouble on Madam, they are so inhumane!"

"Jing'an Marquis Mansion has always relied on Madam. If they fail now, it will be difficult for Madam to come forward in the future." Yan'er looked at the silent Su Junxi and said lightly.

Ying Shi's chest was rising and falling with anger: "In my opinion, I should use this to bring down the Marquis Mansion and return to Duke Anguo's Mansion as soon as possible...well..."

Before Ying Shi could finish her words, Yan'er blocked her mouth.

She struggled to break away and asked Yan'er with puzzled eyes: "Sister Yan'er, why don't you let me finish my sentence!"

Yan'er looked back at Su Junxi and whispered to Yingshi, "You are crazy! Even if the Hou Mansion collapses, Madam is safe and sound. But what will happen to Madam in the future?"

Although Yan'er didn't express her worries directly, Su Junxi knew in her heart that even if she brought down the Marquis of Jing'an, how would she be able to gain a foothold in the future after she was married?

Do you want everyone in Duke An's palace to be humiliated along with her and be laughed at by the world?
Just when she was uneasy, the carriage was suddenly stopped by a riot in front.

"What happened?" Yan'er raised the door curtain and asked about the situation.

The boy replied: "It seems like someone is causing trouble, so treat the little one..."

The boy was pierced in the chest by an arrow flying from behind just as he was speaking.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Yan'er and Yingshi screamed almost at the same time, but they were surprisingly unanimous in protecting Su Junxi behind them.

Looking at the two thin backs, Su Junxi couldn't help but feel a warm current flowing through her heart, but recalling the scene when Yan'er betrayed her made her even more unpredictable.

"Madam, are these people here for you?" Yan'er looked back at Su Junxi with some worry.

"Bah, bah, bah!" Yingshi said unluckily, blaming Yan'er: "Sister Yan'er, don't talk nonsense. Madam has lived in the Hou's residence for a long time and has never seen anyone else. How can she say anything to offend anyone?"

Su Junxi was about to say something when she heard a rustling sound coming from behind the carriage. She was about to tell them to run away, but a dagger was pressed against her back.

The smell of blood touched the tip of her nose, and Su Junxi knew that this person was seriously injured.

"Madam, what should we do now?" Yingshi watched the men in black approaching with swords.

At this moment, more than a dozen black shadows suddenly appeared from the surrounding eaves, heading towards the men in black.

In just a moment, only a pile of corpses were left on the scene, and the black figures disappeared in an instant.

"Yan'er, please go to the palace quickly and tell the Queen that I was assassinated on the road and fell into a coma."

"Yes, ma'am."

Yan'er jumped off the carriage and left.She turned around and told Ying Shi: "Go find a groom and take me back. The sooner the better!"

Seeing Su Junxi's anxious face, Yingshi did not dare to neglect and hurriedly went to find the groom: "My slave, go now!"

After she had sent everyone away, a figure quickly passed by outside the carriage. Just when she thought she was safe, the figure suddenly broke into the carriage. Before Su Junxi could make a sound, the dagger struck her hard. On the neck.

"Don't say anything, take me out of here safely!" The man threatened Su Junxi with a dagger in his right hand, and covered the wound on his waist with his left hand. Blood was flowing continuously, and his pale forehead was covered with beads.

"I know a friend with good medical skills. If you can trust me, sir, I can take you there."

After thinking for a moment, the man threatened Su Junxi with a dagger and drove the carriage to find the so-called friend.

After Su Junxi stopped the carriage, she said to the man: "The young master is here."

When there was no response from behind, she suddenly felt something bad. Could it be that she was dead?

When he opened the curtain, he saw that the person had fainted.

She turned around and walked up quickly to knock on the door: "Open the door! Is anyone home?"

This was her master, who taught her since she was a child. It was only after she was rescued by the master after an accident that she learned about his extraordinary medical skills.

"Come on, come on! Stop knocking!" A childish voice came from inside the door.

The door opened with a creak, and a child of seven or eight years old curiously looked at Su Junxi standing in front of the door.

Su Junxi pulled the child to the carriage without saying a word.

The child was so frightened that his eyes widened and he protested: "You little lady, how can you be so rude and act so recklessly!"

"Quick, help me, send him in and show him to the master!"

Su Junxi quickly opened the curtain and put the man on the back of the astonished child.

"Who are you?" The child was frightened by her actions.

"Don't ask, it's important to save people! I'll hold on, you carry me." Su Junxi commanded.

The child didn't know why, but at her urging, he picked up the man on his back and walked towards the courtyard.

Entering the courtyard, Su Junxi looked around, looking for her master.

"The master is in the backyard." the child reminded.

"Thanks."

Su Junxi thanked her and went straight to the backyard, leaving the child alone in the wind.

I remembered that my master once taught a student with outstanding talent. Could it be her?
However, this idea was quickly rejected by him. How could this woman be so reckless as a good student in the eyes of her master?
Mr. Lu was enjoying the cool under the trees in the courtyard when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps. He picked up the book on his face and took a look. When he saw that the person coming was Su Junxi, he hummed and covered his face with the book again.

"Master! Save people quickly!" Su Junxi directly pulled Mr. Lu, who was nearly fifty years old, from the recliner.

"Hey, hey, be gentle, girl!" Mr. Lu stood up unsteadily.

"Who are you going to save?" Mr. Lu looked at Su Junxi, who was looking out of shape as usual, and continued nagging: "You are already a mistress, and you still don't pay attention to your image."

Su Junxi then realized that she was rude and apologized: "It was the student who was rude. The student met an injured person on the road and asked the master to help him."

Seeing Su Junxi's worried look, Mr. Lu hurriedly asked: "Where is he?"

"Here!" The child almost dragged the person over.
