Luoyang Brocade Chapter 55: Shocked (1)
That’s right!
This dagger does belong to Ling Jingshu.
When the gangsters forced her to leave, she put the dagger against her neck. But...why is this dagger in the gangster's chest?
Ling Ji's mind was in chaos, and he stared at the blood-stained dagger as if he had seen a ghost.
Wang Tong looked at Ling Ji's dumbfounded look, tugged at the corner of his lips and said: "You heard it right, and you didn't think it wrong either. This gang leader died at the hands of the kind, delicate and bloodless Miss Ling Jiu. . The situation was critical just now. The gangster leader who held her hostage was already injured. If he were to catch her again, he would probably catch Miss Ling Jiu on his back before dying. Miss Ling Jiu was quite decisive and rushed to kill her first. Him."
After a pause, he said: "This kind of thing should not be publicized, otherwise it will damage Miss Lingjiu's reputation. I will tell the East Palace guards to keep it secret. As for the guards of your house and the boatmen on the ship, you have to Mr. Yu has come forward."
As he spoke, he put the dagger into Ling Ji's hand.
Ling Ji lowered his head and looked at the dagger, feeling heavy in his hand and even heavier in his heart.
If it weren’t for the sake of saving everyone’s lives, Ling Jingshu wouldn’t have stepped forward resolutely. Even though he knew that the road ahead was dangerous, he still took the initiative to leave with the gangsters.
If Ling Jingshu really had a problem, how could the Ling parents have the face to return to the Ling family's old house, and how could they have the face to face everyone in the fifth room?
Ling Jingshu was forced to kill someone. It's really admirable that such a weak woman can be so smart and decisive. This made him, a dignified man of seven feet, even more ashamed.
This kind of thing must not be spread!
Once word spreads. Not only will the Ling family's face be damaged, but Ling Jingshu will also become an alien in the eyes of others...
Ling Ji quickly made up his mind, took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, Commander Wang, for reminding me. I know what to do."
......
"Dad. The eldest brother and Ah Xiao have gone to the board of the boat, and there is no more killing activity outside. Are we safe?" Ling Jingyan, who had been frightened and crying for a long time, her voice was hoarse, and she was trembling and squeezing. A few words came out.
Uncle Ling listened for a while and said uncertainly: "There is indeed nothing unusual happening outside. All those gangsters should have been beheaded."
Sun's voice was also hoarse: "Come, please light the candlestick first."
The maids who were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground finally reacted. He stood up and fumbled to light the candlestick.
There was finally light in the cabin.
Ms. Jiang's expression suddenly changed, and she said tremblingly: "There are footsteps outside."
Everyone’s expressions changed.
The footsteps were not heavy. Soon he was outside the door. The door was pushed open with a squeak.
Ling Jingyan had already closed her eyes and screamed. Uncle Ling and Mrs. Sun's faces turned pale.
"Don't be afraid, it's me and Ah Xiao." Those who appeared at the door were indeed Ling Jingshu and her brother. Ling Jingshu's voice was a little tired.
Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief.
Ling Jingyan, who was still screaming, immediately stopped, not knowing where she got the strength. He quickly stood up and rushed over. He hugged Ling Jingshu and started crying: "Cousin Shu, luckily you came back safe and sound. When you followed the gangsters just now, I was so scared that I didn't dare to say anything to ask you to stay... .Sorry..."
Both Uncle Ling and Mrs. Sun felt guilty. They looked at each other and silently turned their heads to the side.
Just now they watched helplessly as Ling Jingshu walked away with the gangsters, and no one dared to say a word. Now that I think about it, I was too cowardly and timid...
"Cousin Yan. You don't have to blame yourself."
Ling Jingshu's soft and calm voice reached everyone's ears: "In that situation, it was lucky to be able to save everyone's lives. Besides, they came for me. If I didn't take the initiative If I follow them, they will never let me go."
"Uncle and aunt remained silent. They must be thinking about preserving their strength and secretly waiting for an opportunity to rescue me. How could I not know about this painstaking effort."
Uncle Ling and Mrs. Sun's faces felt a little hot, knowing that this was Ling Jingshu's thoughtful excuse to excuse them...
What a reasonable and considerate girl!
Uncle Ling cleared his throat and said: "Ah Shu, thank you for your hard work this time. You must be quite frightened. Come in and talk quickly."
"Yes, Ah Shu, come in quickly." Mrs. Sun also changed her words and was very friendly.
Ling Jingshu's voice was a little bitter: "I have a lot of blood splattered on my body, I'm afraid it will scare you. I'll go back and change into clean clothes first, and then come here to talk."
Only at this moment did Ling Jingyan smell the **** smell on Ling Jingshu's body.
On normal days, Ling Jingyan would have been so frightened that her legs would become weak.
However, I have experienced so many dangers today. At this time, everyone is safe and sound, which is a blessing to heaven. Who cares about such details?
Ling Jingyan dragged Ling Jingshu into the house and said, "There are some blood stains, so there is nothing to be afraid of, as long as everyone is safe."
That’s what I said. Under the light, Ling Jingyan was shocked when she saw the mottled blood stains on Ling Jingshu's dress, and blurted out: "Ah Shu, where did you get so much blood stains on your body?"
It’s like the blood stained by killing someone at close range...
Ling Jingyan was startled by the thought that flashed through her mind. She quickly put the terrible thought away and found a reasonable explanation self-righteously: "I know. The person who came to the rescue must have killed him. You were too close to the gangster who held you hostage, and blood splattered on you."
Ling Jingshu remained silent and allowed Ling Jingyan and others to misunderstand.
Yes, no one would have thought that she killed the gangster with her own hands!
Even she never imagined that she would have the courage to kill someone.
At such a critical moment, the body's reaction was even faster than the brain's.
The feeling of killing is not wonderful, even a little disgusting. However, she has no regrets. If it happened again, she would do the same thing.
The only thing that made her anxious was that there were too many people present. This matter cannot be concealed at all. The Ling family will know the truth soon... I'm afraid they will regard her as an alien.
If it is publicized in the future~IndoMTL.com~ it will be difficult for her to gain a foothold in the capital.
This is Ling Jingshu’s real worry.
Jiang opened her mouth and asked: "Ah Shu, who saved us today?"
Ling Jingshu's mind flashed through the handsome and cold face of the young man in black clothes: "It's the emperor's grandson who led the East Palace guards to come to the rescue."
The emperor’s grandson?
Ms. Jiang was startled at first, then quickly breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out to be His Highness the Grand Sun."
According to their blood relationship, she and the emperor's grandson are cousins who have not been out of the fifth server. However, since the other party has a distinguished status, she would not just call him cousin casually.
Uncle Ling perked up and immediately said: "You all go back to your room, wash up and change clothes. When daybreak, I will take you to thank you." (To be continued.)
