But Fu Huaiyu still smiled. In his eyes, they were just a group of ants.
Ignoring the threat from the man in black, he walked straight to Shen Qingwan, who had several more wounds on her body, and raised her chin with his hand, "You have aroused my interest. Why don't you follow me?"
Under the surprised eyes of everyone, he flirted with her so blatantly that even she was stunned. She didn't expect there would be such a follow-up. But seeing that her goal had been achieved, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Stop talking nonsense! Who are you? Why are you ruining our good thing!" He cursed angrily. They finally got the chance. If he ruined it, how would they explain to their superiors
"You are not worthy of knowing my identity!" Fu Huaiyu turned his head and glanced at the three people. The hem of his clothes floated slightly in the wind, and his aura indeed changed from gentle to extremely cold.
"Heh..."
With a chuckle, a figure flashed by quickly, and the three of them quickly stood up and started to fight with him. It must be said that Fu Huaiyu's kung fu is very good, even under the attack of three people, he is still at ease.
"Empress, who is this person? He is so powerful." Lianyun came over from the side. She was no longer afraid. Seeing someone saving them, she felt a little in awe of this person, but more of curiosity.
"You will know this person's identity sooner or later, so there's no need to rush." Shen Qingwan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and the panic in her eyes had disappeared completely. This person was not someone to be trifled with.
Although outsiders said that the Ninth Prince was idle, she had seen his eyes at a banquet once, and the look in his eyes showed that he was definitely not such a simple person.
And now it seems that her guess was right, and why, with some ability, how many people can survive in this palace full of intrigue? At least if she said that he was simple, she would never believe it.
“You are just a few ants, yet you dare to be so arrogant in front of me!” He shook his sleeves and stood with his hands behind his back.
At this time, Shen Qingwan looked up and found that the three men in black had fallen to the ground, obviously without breath.
"Thank you, Ninth Prince!" Shen Qingwan stepped forward and bowed, with a complicated look in her eyes. She lowered her head and looked him up and down with her peripheral vision. This man was hiding too deeply that she dared not look him in the eye.
"What? Are you afraid that I will eat you?" Fu Huaiyu was amused. He had just used him, but now he didn't dare to look him in the eye? "I am your savior. Is this how you thank me?"
Her heart tightened, but she still looked up and smiled at him, "Ninth Prince, you're joking." Even so, she was his sister-in-law, but he had never used honorifics for her, which made Shen Qingwan feel a little apprehensive.
"Don't you see what kind of people these people are?" Seeing the calmness in her eyes, he stopped teasing her and pointed at the three people lying on the ground.
Shen Qingwan bit her lower lip. Those three people were obviously dead. Although she grew up in the general's mansion, she still had some concerns about the dead.
"This..." He struggled in his heart for a few times, but still endured the nausea and went forward to check.
Fortunately, Fu Huaiyu's method of killing people was to cut the throat with a sword, so it was not too bloody.
She reached out and picked up the clothes of those people, and saw a jade token falling out from them. This jade token was clearly only found in the palace, which made her more certain of her previous thoughts, that they were indeed people from the harem.
But at this moment, she couldn't be sure who it was, so she could only make a decision after returning to the palace.
Seeing her lowering her head in thought, Fu Huaiyu felt something inexplicably moving in his heart. She looked really cute when she was quiet.
But this was not the place to talk, so he escorted her back to the palace, "Let's go! Staying here is not a long-term solution. If you go back by yourself, I'm afraid you will encounter other dangers on the way. I will be your flower protector and send you back."
Fu Huaiyu put away the sword in his hand, took out the fan in his arms, and returned to his gentle and gentlemanly appearance.
She sighed at his fickleness, but what he said was indeed the truth. If she went back by herself, who knew if she would encounter assassins on the way? It would be better for him to escort her. Although she would be cautious, at least her life would not be in danger.
Shen Qingwan was not hypocritical. She pulled Lianyun up and supported each other. She nodded at him and said, "Thank you very much, Ninth Prince."
Lianyun listened to the conversation between the two and naturally knew the identity of this person, but she was still relatively naive and did not notice that the two were wary of each other. She just thought that the Ninth Prince must be a good person.
"Your Majesty, why do you think the Ninth Prince is so handsome?" Lianyun had been secretly glancing at him the whole way. After she finished speaking, she realized she had said something wrong and quickly covered her mouth.
Shen Qingwan smiled bitterly. This girl didn't know the world's warmth and coldness. She probably thought that she was a good person because she saved them. But it was this innocence that made her reluctant to destroy it. In this huge harem, there were few such pure people. If she changed, then the harem would be really deserted.
"Yeah..." He murmured in a low voice, but his mind was already absent-minded.
Little did he know that Fu Huaiyu, who was walking in front, had very good hearing. He inadvertently overheard this casual remark and a smile appeared on his face.
Well, let's keep her for now.
"Ouch!" I suddenly felt a pain in my waist, and saw a child running past.
"My Queen, he stole my purse!" Lianyun suddenly screamed and stomped her feet angrily.
Shen Qingwan followed her gaze towards her waist, and sure enough, the purse that was originally tied around her waist was gone.
Thinking of the pain in his waist just now, he quickly looked around his waist and found that the white jade pendant that was originally hanging on it was gone.
"What bad luck." Fu Huaiyu on the side laughed. He was really unlucky today. First he was assassinated on the way back to the palace, and now he encountered a thief again.
"Hmph! Don't let me catch him, or I'll chop off his hands!" Lian Yun said gritting his teeth.
Shen Qingwan felt that it was okay, after all, money is just external things. It was just a pity to lose the white jade pendant, which was a birthday gift given to her by her brother.
However, the fact that there are still such petty thieves in this imperial city means that there are still many people starving.
"What are you thinking about? Why are you so absorbed in it?" Fu Huaiyu tapped her forehead with his fan, which seemed a little ambiguous to outsiders.
But it also brought Shen Qingwan back to her senses from her contemplation.
Well, it’s more important to return to the palace first.
