By the ti the Five Cities Soldiers and Horseman Division arrived at the scene, the traces had already been thoroughly cleaned up. Apart from a few drops of blood on the ground indicating that a fight had occurred here, there was no other trace left.
The commander of the division stomped his foot: "Investigate. Get investigating, damn it, I want to see who dares to brawl in the imperial city."
No one took this matter seriously, as such incidents were not happening for the first ti. Unless caught on the spot, with traces cleaned so thoroughly, it would take so ti to find out what happened.
The concerned person wrapped Xiao Qi’s arm with a handkerchief, frowning: "When we go back, you need to intensify your martial arts training."
Xiao Qi wasn’t too concerned about the sword wound on his arm, still crouching in front of Wufu, vigilantly staring at the ’half-dead person’ curled up on the ground.
"Relax, he can’t move." Wufu patted his hand, "Don’t you trust ?"
Xiao Qi relaxed a bit after hearing this but kept his eyes locked on the person without blinking.
Wufu’s mouth curved into a smile; finding Xiao Qi was truly an unexpected joy, earning his wholehearted trust and loyalty.
With proper guidance, this child will beco stronger and better in the future.
Xiao Qi grew up among wolves; following her, she wouldn’t turn him into a weakling, but would make him stronger. Only with increased combat strength could he enhance his survival skills.
The carriage soon arrived at the neighboring house of Changqing Residence, entering through the side door, where i Er was already waiting.
"Uncover his mastermind." Wufu pointed to the man in black carried by i Shi, wanting to see who had such an issue with her.
"Yes."
Wufu first took Xiao Qi to treat his wounds and changed into clean clothes.
"Prepare so blood-nourishing dicinal soup for Xiao Qi." Wufu instructed Jadeite.
Jadeite nodded in agreent.
"Miss, let accompany you when you go out from now on." Mo Lan said with a serious face, indicating she could also disguise herself as a man.
"Indeed. Miss, we can also disguise ourselves as n!" Jadeite chid in.
Upon hearing about the attack on the young lady, their faces turned pale with fright. The lady usually lived low-key; where did such hatred co from to face an ambush?
"It’s nothing serious, look at you getting all worked up. Didn’t everything end up alright?" Wufu laughed and said, "Having the Hidden Guards is enough."
"Miss, that’s not the right way to put it. Today, there were only a few attackers; if there were more enemies, then the few of you around wouldn’t suffice!" Jadeite disagreed, "Even if you don’t let us follow, you should at least summon Chi Er and Chi San back."
Mo Lan said nothing, only expressing her agreent with Jadeite’s words through her gaze.
"I’m not so royal descendant, nor do I have great enemies, nor have I done anything heinous warranting soone to pick a fight with , so why would I need so many people tagging along?" Wufu chuckled; she disliked being overly crowded even when rely stepping out, finding it quite unnecessary.
Jadeite muttered, "Then who were those people today?"
Wufu lowered her eyes, "Coming and going are just those few." She hadn’t offended many people, yet those wishing she’d die probably included Madam Wang and others, or perhaps the Commandery Princess Ping Xi?
The Princess Ping Xi had recently been busy rekindling old ties with Prince Zhou, thus it shouldn’t be her, but Madam Wang and the Wu Family?
"Miss."
Chi Wu and i Er walked in.
"Handled?" Wufu first looked at Chi Wu.
Chi Wu nodded: "As instructed by Miss, everything’s been arranged."
"Hmm." Only then did Wufu look at i Er, asking, "Speak, who has such a big grudge against , wanting to kill !"
When they attacked her, she was dressed as a man, which ant there really weren’t many known enemies.
Unless it’s...
