Ceng!
Lou Xiaoxiao suddenly got up. She coldly stared at the messenger with a murderous gaze. âWhat did you say?â
âThis... These are not my words. Iâm just a messenger... â Feeling the cold murderous intent, the messenger turned pale. His voice became unsteady as he retreated a few steps.
Lou Xiaoxiao could not listen any further. She strode toward the Imperial Academy...
âWho wants to see me? Why is he threatening me in this manner? Are Lou Han and the others fine?â Lou Xiaoxiao frowned on the way.
The moment she came out from the academy, her expression immediately darkened. âLou Qing? Lou Han! Who are you all? Let them go!â
âSister Xiaoxiao!â A few juniors of the Lou family were injured. They had been beaten by a group of people with weapons and who were dressed as servants. When the juniors saw Lou Xiaoxiao, they nervously shouted.
âSister Xiaoxiao, donât bother about us. Quickly go to the academy! They canât make things difficult for you if youâre inside the academy!â
âRight, Sister Xiaoxiao. Donât bother about us!â
As the juniors of the Lou family tried to dissuade Lou Xiaoxiao, the leader of the group, an elder, looked at Lou Xiaoxiao with an evil gaze. âYou? Youâre Lou Xiaoxiao?â
He sized up Lou Xiaoxiao with a lecherous gaze. âYouâre even prettier than in the pictures. Not bad! Looks like Third Royal Highness really sent me a good gift.â
Clang!
Lou Xiaoxiao took out her Frost Sword in an instant. âLet them go.â
When their leader made a gesture, the people dressed as servants orderly relaxed their hands holding the weapons.
The expressions of the juniors of the Lou family relaxed as they hurriedly ran behind Lou Xiaoxiao.
âSister Xiaoxiao, why did you come? They are bad people with bad intentions. Donât get involved with them.â
âWho are they?â Lou Xiaoxiao asked the juniors of the Lou family as she stared at the group opposite her.
âThey said that they were from the Yin Guogongâs mansion.â
âMoreover, they even spouted rubbish and said that you are the 91st concubine of their Yin Guogong. They want to bring you to Yin Guogongâs Mansion.â
Upon hearing this, the elder snorted. âLittle fellow, weâre not spouting rubbish. Third Prince has personally sent a messenger to our Master Guogong with Lou Xiaoxiaoâs picture. Furthermore, your Lou familyâs head, the Prefectural Governor of Fengyang prefecture, has also sent a letter agreeing to bethrow Lou Xiaoxiao to Master Yin Guogong as his 91st concubine!â
âWhat? Lou Jinglei agreed? On what basis?â
âOutrageous!â One by one, the faces of the juniors of the Lou family turned red with fury.
âWishful thinking!â Sparks of fury rose in Lou Xiaoxiaoâs beautiful eyes, and her chest vigorously rose up and down. âBe tactful, and quickly get lost! Otherwise, I wonât be polite to you all!â
âYo! What a fiery temper! Itâs a pity! Yin Guogong is very interested in you. He has given an order to bring you back. Thatâs why Lou Xiaoxiao, you better follow us. Otherwise, these few juniors of the Lou family...â
âSister Xiaoxiao, we are not afraid. At the worst, weâll fight with them!â
âYes. No matter what, we wonât let you go through this kind of humiliation for us!â
A few of the juniors of the Lou family immediately shouted.
Lou Xiaoxiao paused, and her mood swiftly changed. âYou all, go in first. Return to the academy and look for the teacherââ
She was still talking when...
âHumph! Lou Xiaoxiao, why do you think I let them off so easily? Itâs because we can control their life and death at any time!â
The leader waved his hand. A few figures went behind the juniors of the Lou family like phantoms and swiftly gripped their necks.
It was obvious that as long as these men used a little strength, they could break the necks of the Lou Familyâs juniors.
âLou Han!â
âLou Qing!â
Lou Xiaoxiaoâs expression turned ugly as she nervously exclaimed!
âHow about it now? Lou Xiaoxiao, have you become aware of the gap between us? This is supposed to be a joyous matter. I donât wish to see blood. Iâll give you an hour. Carefully consider your decision. Whether you want them to live or die. Do you want me to knock you unconscious, then take you away, or do you want to follow us yourself!â
