Quick Wear: The Rescue Plan of the Male Supporting Actor of the Popular Cannon Fodder

Chapter 136: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing

Qiuju immediately and cautiously pushed Wen Yang into the house, "Your Highness, it seems that a thief has entered the mansion."

Wen Yang raised her eyes in confusion and glanced outside the palace. Wen Fengye was now confined to the palace, and Song Yizhi was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice. And yet, someone was still trying to attack her? Could there be some enemy lurking in the shadows that she hadn't discovered yet?

Wen Yang pressed down Qiuju's hand as she was pushing her into the house, and instead walked towards the door.

Ever since Luo An brought the Iron Eagle Guards into the Princess's Mansion, he has taken over all the security work there.

Therefore, the level of guards in the princess's mansion is much higher than before. If it is just a simple petty thief, Wen Yang feels that there is nothing to be afraid of.

And after Luo An roared, many Iron Eagle Guards also noticed something unusual and rushed here.

Wen Yang carefully lay down beside the door frame and looked outside, and found that Luo An was fighting with someone.

The man was dressed in black, with a black scarf covering his face. He had no weapons in his hands. Facing Luo An's relentless pursuit of the silver spear, the man could only keep dodging.

Ling Han's peripheral vision caught sight of Wen Yang's figure at the door of the bedroom, and his mind was instantly distracted. In just this instant, Luo An seized the opportunity.

The silver spear grazed Ling Han's arm, and instantly, a faint smell of blood filled the wind...

However, Luo An did not stop there. He turned the gun head and the bloody tip of the gun chased again.

Hearing the dense footsteps coming from all around him, Ling Han didn't dare to stay any longer nor fight any more. He gritted his teeth, took one last look in Wen Yang's direction, and suddenly leaped high, using Qinggong skills, and fled in a panic...

Luo An was about to chase him, but Wen Yang said, "Uncle Luo, don't chase him."

Hearing this, Luo An stopped in his tracks, put his spear back to his side, frowned, and asked, "Your Highness, has this kind of thing ever happened in the palace before? Someone actually dared to trespass into the Princess's mansion."

"Maybe there were such cases before, but with the strength of the guards in the mansion before, it was difficult to discover..." Wen Yang replied.

After hearing this, Luo An frowned even deeper.

He warned, "Your Highness, that little thief just now was very skilled in Qinggong. He is definitely not an ordinary thief. At this critical moment on the eve of the marriage, he broke into the princess's mansion. I'm afraid... he has ulterior motives..."

Qiu Ju stood beside Wen Yang. After hearing Luo An's words, she took a breath and said, "Your Highness, could it be that someone has fallen in love with you and sent someone to kidnap you and interfere with your marriage?"

Wen Yang knocked on Qiuju's head and asked, "Have you been reading too many storybooks lately?"

Qiu Ju touched the top of her head and said aggrievedly: "Your Highness is so beautiful, my guess is not impossible..."

Wen Yang smiled and shook his head, then raised his eyes to Luo An and asked, "Uncle Luo, you are not hurt, are you?"

Hearing Wen Yang's caring words, Luo An's frown finally relaxed a little, "Your Highness, don't worry, that little thief can't hurt me. It was him who got his arm scratched by the spear." As he spoke, Luo An raised the spear in his hand.

Seeing this, Wen Yang nodded slightly, "Then I feel relieved."

After hearing Wen Yang's reply, Luo An hesitated for a moment, pursed his lips, and finally spoke: "Your Highness, that little thief was standing on the willow tree in the mansion, just in time to have a glimpse of your entire bedroom... If he was just a simple little thief, he could have headed for the storeroom in the mansion, but he chose to stand on this tree, which really makes it seem like he's coming for you."

"Moreover, that person's behavior didn't seem like an attack, because he didn't carry any weapons. Therefore, I also think that it is very likely, as Miss Qiuju said, that he has some plans against you..."

After hearing this, Wen Yang burst out laughing. "Uncle Luo, you just returned to Lingcheng, so you might not understand. Although I'm a princess, there's no man in this city who truly loves me so passionately."

"Your Highness, there is no need to belittle yourself. Even if those men dare not approach Your Highness, it is only because Your Highness's status is too noble and they know they are not worthy of you." Luo An bowed and comforted.

Wen Yang smiled slightly and changed the subject, "Uncle Luo, since that person has run away, don't worry about it. Anyway, I will leave for the marriage in a few days. When I arrive in Jiang State, no matter whether that person loves me or has malice towards me, it will have nothing to do with me in the future."

"Yes." After hearing Wen Yang's words, Luo An tactfully did not speak again.

"In that case, Your Highness, please rest quickly. We will increase patrols around the palace to ensure your safety."

"Well, Uncle Luo, thank you for your help." After saying that, Wen Yang turned around and returned to the bedroom.

After returning to the bedroom, Qiuju took off Wen Yang's wedding dress and helped her wash up. Then Wen Yang blew out the candles in the hall and went to bed.

......

On the other side, the door of a secret room on the second floor of a chamber of commerce was suddenly pushed open, and a figure carrying a bloody smell jumped in.

The people on standby inside immediately stepped forward to check on the situation. When they saw the bleeding wound on the man's arm, they gasped and exclaimed, "Master! You are injured!"

Ling Han took off the black scarf from his face, covered the wound on his arm and shook his head, "It's nothing, just an accidental scratch."

The subordinates who came to Jiang State with Ling Han looked at each other. When they heard their master say that he was careless, no one dared to ask more questions. The subordinate in charge of treatment immediately stepped forward and silently treated the wound on Ling Han's arm.

Ling Han's eyes were gloomy as he silently endured the pain his subordinates felt when treating his wounds. The dim candlelight in the dark room could vaguely illuminate his slightly furrowed brows.

However, Ling Han's mind was not on the wound at the moment. The image of Wen Yang in a red wedding dress could not be shaken off his mind.

He raised his eyes and asked one of his subordinates in a low voice, "Did you learn anything while doing business in the city today? Has the Princess's Mansion issued a missing person notice?"

The subordinate whose question was raised froze in thought before bowing and saying, "Master, according to the information I've gathered, the Princess's Mansion hasn't released any missing persons announcements in recent days."

"However..." The subordinate paused, then continued, "There's a rumor going around in this city that Princess Wenyang fell off a cliff while hunting, but returned to the hunting grounds unharmed three days later. It's also said that Princess Wenyang's personality changed drastically since then. It's even said in the city that she was the one who initiated the marriage. So now the people of Lingcheng are full of admiration for her..."

Listening to his subordinate's reply, a trace of doubt arose in Ling Han's heart, and the frown that had just been slightly furrowed gradually deepened.

He had witnessed Wen Yang's death after falling off the cliff. How could he have returned unscathed in such a situation? What had happened?

He also thought that Wen Yang was already dead at that time, so he left Wen Yang alone at the bottom of the cliff, waiting for the people of Ling Kingdom to take her back for burial.

But he just saw with his own eyes that Wen Yang was still alive...

If he was still alive, why hadn't anyone noticed he'd disappeared? Why hadn't anyone been sent to look for him? Could it be that Wen Yang had forgotten about him? Ling Han couldn't help but think of this.

The subordinate seemed to have noticed the confusion on Ling Han's face. He spoke softly, "Master, Princess Wen Yang must have searched for you in the enclosure after waking up. If you weren't even there, then even if we advertised a missing person announcement in the city, it would be in vain..."

After hearing what his subordinates said, Ling Han still couldn't calm down for a long time.

After a long moment, he asked in a deep voice, "You just said that there's a rumor among the people that Princess Wenyang took the initiative to ask for a marriage alliance. What's that about?"

The subordinate who was questioned replied respectfully, "Master, the marriage was indeed initiated by Princess Wenyang. To commend her righteousness, Emperor Ling announced this matter to the world."

Hearing his subordinate's reply, Ling Han clenched his fists, his joints making crackling sounds, and he repeated hoarsely: "For the people and for the people..."

These words seemed to weigh as heavy as a thousand pounds, pressing on his heart and making it difficult for him to breathe.

If he hadn't left, would Wen Yang still have volunteered to embark on the path of marriage...
