043 “Female Counterattack (H)” Chapter 42

018 General Bamboo Horse

After sleeping until daylight, Ning Wan was startled when she woke up. She touched the place next to her and found that it was already cold.

Just when I thought about it, my whole body was filled with unbearable pain, and I couldn’t help but let out a hiss, how capable this guy is.I also remembered that yesterday he whispered that there was no need to go and say hello to my father, so I gave up.

Perhaps after hearing her movements, several maids with respectful behavior filed in.Ning Wan leaned lazily and looked at her quietly, and she seemed to behave well.

They helped him put on complicated clothes and accessories, then helped him sit on the dressing stool, until the leading maid, who was wearing a particularly delicate light pink dress, twisted a soft handkerchief and handed it to him.

Without answering, Ning Wan raised her eyebrows lightly, and the intimidating aura she had developed in the army flashed away. Coupled with the excessive use of her voice last night, her voice was low and hoarse: “You two will go down first.”

They were at a loss for a moment, and then they just blessed him respectfully and walked away backwards.

Ning Wan’s eyes sharpened, staring closely at the maid who was still holding out her hand. The silent power forced her to stay calm and she broke into a cold sweat.

Just when she was about to kneel down, Ning Wan said coolly: “Xiao Xing, right?”

Xiao Xing knelt down with a pop, her voice as crisp as a warbler trembling: “If you want to reply to the master… this slave is Xiao Xing.”

“Oh, which master are you talking to?” Ning Wan remembered that in the original book, after returning from Dingyuan, Xiao Xing served the original body with attentiveness and thoughtfulness. She thought she was a maid who treated her sincerely, but she was just a pawn arranged by Jiang Jiyue to add medicine to her diet every day, which made the original body’s injuries become more and more serious.

Hearing this, Xiao Xing fell to the ground in shock, kowtowed her head “dong dong dong”, and shouted randomly: “Madam, please spare my life, madam, please spare my life…” She was extremely horrified. Madam had only entered the Yongyi Hou Mansion yesterday, and the veil soaked in chronic poison had not been used yet. How did Madam know her identity?

“Get up and talk.” Ning Wan waved her hand. Xiao Xing was quite smart and didn’t make any excuses.

When she raised her head again, her forehead was already red. Under Ning Wan’s cold gaze, she no longer dared to hide anything. She told her everything about how the princess kidnapped her younger brother, how she threatened her to come to the Marquis Mansion, and how she waited for an opportunity to act.Finally, he knelt down on the ground again: “This slave knows that his life is in danger. I beg you, Madam, to protect my little brother.”

“You are here to harm others for the sake of your little brother. Why should I protect your little brother?” Ning Wan looked at her coldly. Ever since she married Su Liuyun, the plot has been rewritten. She must be completely recovered before she can have a chance of winning against Jiang Jiyue.

Xiao Xing never expected that Madam would be such a clear-minded character, and she felt completely hopeless and despairing.He murmured unconsciously: “Madam…”

Ning Wan raised a jade hand and held her chin to relax: “Unless you are willing to use it for me.”

Hearing that things were about to turn around, Xiao Xingtou was as excited as onions and garlic, and shouted: “I am willing to serve my wife.”

“You said that your younger brother was kidnapped by the princess. Is there any secret behind it?” Ning Wan felt that there was something strange in this.

“This… I don’t know about this. I bribed the guards and sneaked quietly to the place where the younger brother was detained. There seemed to be many young children there, and there were even sounds of reading. The food, clothing, housing and transportation… were not bad.” It was precisely because the princess never treated her younger brother harshly that she was willing to be used by the princess.

These words made Ning Wan confused. What was Jiang Jiyue doing raising a group of teenagers?
