Chapter Eighty-Six: A Disobedient Daughter!
ng lady closely, but she was not used to it. What should they do now"Miss, the maids will take their leave first. If you have any orders, please instruct us.""Good!" Chen Zixuan popped his head out of..."Mujin Jiao! Look who I've brought for you! Have fun, alright! Hahahahaha..." Wuji's unrestrained laughter echoed above Mu Jinjiao's head...
"Wújí! You are so despicable!" Mùjǐnjiāo turned her head back and gasped...
If Mu Jingjiao survives today, the others will surely gouge out your eyes and make you pay a terrible price for this!
Seeing the guards with torches catching up behind her, Mu Jinjiao could only desperately flee towards the Western Palace gate, which was guarded more loosely.
"Where to escape!"
"No, the assassin is going to the West Palace Gate! Quickly, go to the West Palace Gate!"
"But this doesn't seem like the same assassin from before!"
You stupid fool! Even assassins need to be caught! Get moving!
"What about the other assassin"
"That guy probably already ran off, let's catch this one first!"
"Alright, hurry up, hurry up! You guys come with me!"
The effects were halfway gone, Mu Jinjiao's power was greatly reduced, she was already struggling a bit, but with her tenacious willpower, she finally knocked down the guards at the West Palace gate before a large group of guards arrived...
"The assassin ran away!"
"Useless things! Go with me to report to the Emperor at once!"
"Should we put the whole city on lockdown"
"This is all I can say on the matter. The Emperor must make the decision!"
"Yes yes yes!"
"Useless! All you do is eat, drink, and play around; you can't accomplish anything serious!"
"Damn you! Damn you all!"
Watching the guards disappear into the light, Mu Jinjiao walked out from the corner of the palace gate. She leaned against the wall, catching her breath for a moment, then leaped off the palace walls...
"Damn it!" The effects of the medicine had worn off, Mu Jinjiao could no longer hold on, and she fell heavily from the eaves to the ground. This fall undoubtedly worsened her injuries... She spat out a mouthful of blood abruptly, and her body began to shake...
She shook her heavy head, slapping her own face a few times...
As the pain on her face returned, Mu Jinjiao's consciousness cleared. Her beautiful phoenix eyes scanned the surroundings...
"Well, I've made it here..." Mu Jinjiao let out a sigh of relief.
She braced herself, leaning against the wall as she walked to a wall and bent down. She tapped on three bricks on the wall, then moved them aside...
"Ugh…" After moving those three bricks, Mu Jinjiao felt even more exhausted…
No, she couldn't be found here in her nightgown... Today, she had been wronged by Wuji. She estimated that the entire Heaven would soon be on high alert. If anyone found her lying here in her nightgown, her identity would be exposed... With General's personality, he definitely wouldn't save her from prison. As for Ying Guifei She wouldn't even consider it! No, she had to change her clothes and get back to the General's Residence. Even if she had to crawl, she would!
Mu Jin Jiao struggled to pull open the nightgown covering her body...
But because of her recent running and overuse of internal force, she had sweated a lot... The nightgown, because of the sticky sweat and blood, was tightly adhered to her body...
At the front, it was still fine, but at the back, because she had been whipped, her nightgown had become tattered and ruined. It was now firmly stuck to her wounds... Even a slight movement would tug on her back wound...
It seems like this nightwear on my back won't come off... There's no other way, I guess!
Mu Jin Jiao tightly bit her lip, ripping the nightgown viciously.
The nightgown clung to a large patch of blood and flesh that fell from Mu Jinjiao's body, but a small part still stuck to her back...
The searing pain in her back almost made Mu Jinqiao scream...
She clutched the nightgown in her hand, silently enduring the wave of excruciating pain that had just passed...
When her fingers were able to move again, she took the package out of the brick...
She wiped the sweat from her brow, opened the bundle, and took out the clothes inside. She put the removed nightgown into the bundle, then put the bundle back in its original place, and replaced the brick in its original position...
After doing all of this, she was so tired that she couldn't even lift her eyelids.
"Haa..." She took a deep breath, muttering to herself over and over, "Mu Jinjiao, you can't fall, you can't fall..."
After fifty breaths, she felt better. She slowly picked up her clothes from the floor and put on her undershirt...
This waistcoat had taken too much out of her, her back was bleeding again, she simply didn't have the energy to put on another one... Her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier…
Could she really be falling here today
Although she wasn't wearing a nightgown, she also didn't have a veil. A slight investigation would reveal that she was the third young miss of the General's Residence... If the guards on duty discovered the third young miss of the General's Residence in only her undergarments here, covered in blood... There would surely be chaos throughout the city. People would think she was an unchaste woman... What a huge impact this would have on a girl who hasn't left the house!
Faced with the accusations of the world, her general "father" would surely expel her from home... Then she would have no chance to obtain the general's military order... She would also be unable to complete the first task entrusted to her by Ying Gui妃... Perhaps she would never see her sister again, or she could only serve Ying Gui妃 for life... But none of these results were what she hoped for...
What on earth should she do Who will save her!
Hmph...Mu Jinjiao coldly smiled, then laughed wildly, as if she wanted to laugh out all her anger and unwillingness...
There's no one in this world who will come to save her, only people who will keep coming to kill her...
This…this is her fate…her destiny!
Mu Jinjiao bit her lips tightly, not allowing her eyes to well up...
Hmm Who!
As a killer, her acute senses told her that a pair of eyes were watching her from afar...
She closed her eyes in despair.
She was grievously wounded, and all her poisons had been poured into that one palm strike against Wuji. Now she was like a critically ill tiger with its teeth pulled out; anyone could finish her off…
She didn't have the slightest bit of energy to resist or scream loudly...
Her heart was filled with unspeakable grief... Father! Mother! This daughter is unfilial... She couldn't avenge you! This daughter is incompetent! So many years have passed, and she still hasn't found her younger sister! I hope that you two can forgive your daughter in the afterlife, and bless your younger sister! May your younger sister live a safe and healthy life, and be able to live like a normal person, not like me, living without any dignity...
Listening to increasingly closer footsteps, and they're two sets of footsteps...
Mu Jinjiao bitterly curled the corners of her mouth... It turned out that when death really came, I would actually feel it was a kind of relief...
Well... wait a minute... something about this footstep sounds off...
Mu Jinjiao pricked up her ears, carefully listening...
It seems that there's one footstep that doesn't involve martial arts...
Mu Jin jiao opened her eyes and turned her head...
Two men were walking towards her. Because they were facing away from the moonlight, Mu Jinjiao couldn't see their faces clearly.
The man walking in front stopped, as if sizing her up...
After a while, the man in front untied his cloak and walked towards her...
Mú Jǐn Jiāo's entire body started to tense up...
The man walked closer and closer, finally stopping in front of her. He then bent down...ette! This king doesn't know which General's Mansion she's talking about. What if I send her to the wrong place and harm her It's better to bring her back to my palace first. I'll send her back when...
