Chapter 94 Chapter 15

  Jiang Yutao calmly returned to her own tent, the slave girl Lanqiao she brought was anxious and couldn't wait, seeing her return, hurriedly came up: "Master, where did you go? I looked everywhere for you and was worried to death!"

  She saw that the princes and young masters who had gone hunting ahead of her had all left, but she couldn't find her own master anywhere nearby. She was worried that something might have happened to him and wanted to go report it to Lady Xiao and search for him, but at the same time, she was also worried that if her master had gone to a secret tryst with Prince Yuling and they were discovered, it would be embarrassing.

  Jiang Yutao didn't speak to her, she directly rummaged through the things she brought with her, found a dagger, thought it was too big and threw it back, exchanged for a smaller one, compared them everywhere, and finally tied it to her leg. After doing this, she felt insecure, dismantled a few needles and hid them in the sole of her shoe.

  "Go and bring me the jewelry box." Jiang Yutao instructed.

  Lan Qiao knew that she had always been determined, and didn't dare to say more. She hugged the jewelry box and ran over. Jiang Yutao selected a few hairpins with sharp tips, tried them on, and was satisfied with how they looked on her head. She didn't like wearing hairpins, but today's incident reminded her that in a society ruled by law, there were still so many scoundrels, not to mention a feudal society where slaves were legal, and killing people was just a whim of the superior class, she shouldn't be too careless.

  If she had a dagger, she wouldn't have been subdued so easily by those two sturdy maidservants. Of course, it's not that she could beat them, but at the time, in that situation, all she needed to do was stall for a moment and attract attention, and what happened later wouldn't have occurred.

  "Master, what's wrong?" Lan Qiao asked cautiously, feeling that something was off.

  Jiang Yutao didn't show much expression, "Nothing's wrong."

  Her clothes were a bit dirty, and there were a few bloodstains on the cuffs. She took off her clothes and changed into a new set. Lan Qiao saw that after she took off her clothes, there was a whip mark on her shoulder blade that was slightly swollen and red. He sucked in a cold breath, "Master! Your injury! Did you encounter something?"

  "I said there's nothing, don't ask any more," Jiang Yutao said. After changing her clothes, she took Lanqiao to Xiao Furen's tent.

  There were many patrolling soldiers on the road, and Lanqiao followed closely behind Jiang Yutao with some trepidation. "Master, what are they in such a hurry for?"

  Jiang Yutao: "I don't know." He entered Mrs. Xiao's tent without looking up, saying he wanted to pay his respects, and then stayed inside.

  At this time, the miserable appearance of that Junxi County Master should have been discovered. Now it's just a matter of whether she has the guts to expose this matter. If she really speaks out, I'm afraid someone will come looking for her soon. If she stays with Mrs. Xiao, then no matter what, Mrs. Xiao will have to go with her. At that time, facing each other, she didn't kill that county master, it was the other side who did evil first.
