C13 Light-body Technique

Although Jiang Wuyue maintained a doubtful attitude towards Lin Qingqian's decision, she could not interfere with Mistress's orders.

"Alright, then I will go and arrange the manpower now." As he spoke, he lightly knocked on the table. A man dressed in strong clothes appeared from somewhere in the dark. He respectfully knelt there and waited for Jiang Wuyue to continue, "Go to the nearby village to recruit some strong men."

The man did not even speak. He just lowered his head and disappeared from where he stood in the next second.

The scene in front of her did not exceed Lin Qingqian's scope of acceptance. Instead, she was very interested in that man's skills. This was the first time she had seen someone with martial arts since she came to this era.

In her previous life, Lin Qingqian had also seen many ancient dramas, transmigration novels, and so on. But when she saw it with her own eyes, she still felt that it was very inconceivable.

"Can he jump to the roof?" Lin Qingqian's eyes flashed with a strange light. She looked at Jiang Wuyue with expectation and asked.

She had not seen anyone who knew martial arts before, but she did not think so. Seeing this aroused her curiosity. After all, some martial arts novels described those who knew martial arts as miraculous. They were like flying on roofs and walls, and they were immune to poison...

The look of anticipation on her face at this moment matched her age. Jiang Wuyue was surprised by her side, and she did not even understand what she was asking. She asked in confusion, "What?"

Lin Qingqian rolled her eyes at him. She was still curious and explained, "That person just now should be your Dark Guard. I am asking you if he can jump to the top of the house all of a sudden."

"Yes, that's easy." At this moment, Jiang Wuyue was looking at Lin Qingqian as if she was looking at an idiot. She was Minister Lin's daughter. How could she ask such an idiotic question? As someone who could be Dark Guard, how could he not even jump into the house?

Furthermore, he was Jiang Wuyue's Dark Guard. If he could not even get up the roof, he would not be able to. That would be amazing!

"Then can you?" Lin Qingqian's eyes seemed to shine even brighter. It turned out that the flying roofs and climbing walls in martial arts novels really existed!

"Miss Lin, as the young miss of Shang Shu Estate, doesn't even have her own Dark Guard?" Jiang Wuyue immediately felt a little puzzled. Shang Shu Estate's family background was not considered big, but it was also one of the top residences. Why did the young miss of the family not even have Dark Guard?

He thought about it and seemed to be able to make sense. It seemed that Miss Lin did not seem to be favoured and was sent to such a desolate land. Most likely, she would be left to fend for herself...

"My Light-body Technique is average." Jiang Wuyue quickly changed her words and said. On the contrary, she felt a bit more heartache towards Miss Lin. Both of them were young ladies of the Shang Shu Residence but she was targeted in such a manner. From their interactions these few days, it seemed that she was not someone who provoked trouble. She was afraid that she had also been framed.

He suddenly changed his words and Lin Qingqian could not help but feel that it was sudden but she still replied, "Beating children is not very favoured. They were all thrown into the north-western desolate land. It is not impossible for the head to not see it. Asking about this is just out of curiosity. The head does not need to worry at all. Moreover, I, a woman, do not have the ability to cause a storm."

Lin Qingqian's tone was full of helplessness. She was even somewhat glad that she had been driven to such a desolate land. If she continued to stay in the capital, perhaps her life would not be as exciting as staying here.

However, no matter how great her accomplishments were, she was still a woman in the end. In this era full of feudal thoughts, she would most likely only be able to appoint people if she encountered any problems. She was not willing to accept her fate so easily. That was why she felt that it was a good thing to be sent away and leave that restricted place.

"I don't need to worry too much. Although Miss Lin is a woman, her thoughts are very unique. I also admire her. " I will ask Yan Yi to inform you after the preparation for the opening of the canal is completed. " Jiang Wuyue did not intend to continue the topic. He could only avoid Lin Qingqian with a curious attitude.

After all, although Mistress did not make things clear the last time, Mistress was interested in her. He could still see that in order to ensure that Mistress would not target him, it was necessary to maintain a certain distance from Lin Qingqian.

Lin Qingqian could clearly hear the expulsion from his words and lost interest in Qing Gong. She said, "Alright, then I will go back first. Head Chief will arrange the manpower as soon as possible and dig out the channels before the next high tide. That is the most important thing."

Lin Qingqian left the room after she finished speaking. Just as she left, the person Jiang Wuyue was worried about appeared in the room.

That person was still wearing the same clothes as the last time. Under the mask, his peach blossom eyes seemed to have a soul-stirring magic. However, his expression was still as cold as usual, "I heard your conversation just now..."

"Mistress, please forgive me!" Jiang Wuyue hurriedly knelt down. Mistress's temper had always been volatile. He did not dare to use his life to test Mistress's mood.

"Did Zhuh Xueying do anything unusual?" That person did not continue what he just said. Instead, he changed the topic to something else. However, it was because of another woman that he was concerned about this kind of problem.

"Reporting to Mistress, Xueying promised that I will not do any small things in private..." Jiang Wuyue was somewhat biased towards Zhuh Xueying. After all, their many years of friendship did not allow him to helplessly watch from the side.

As if he had seen through the little scheme in his heart, that person's expression became even colder. His slightly narrowed eyes were filled with a dangerous aura, "Be careful."

After saying that, he left the room. Jiang Wuyue wiped off the cold sweat on her forehead for no reason. She was still nervous in her heart.

At the corner, Lin Qingqian carefully looked at the stone pillar beside the corridor. There was a picture of the auspicious cloud on the stone pillar. This was not the main point. The main point was the dragon behind the auspicious cloud! Even if she did not study history well, it was impossible for her not to know that this dragon was the symbol of the emperor.

It was just that the emperor's surname was not Jiang. Lin Qingqian still knew these ordinary problems. It was just that Great Master did not seem to have any connection with the Imperial Court, but the dragon pattern on the stone pillar had become a question in her heart.

Could it be that this group of bandits was planning to usurp the throne? She did not know if it was because she had developed feelings for them, but she was actually reluctant to part with them.

Quickly returning to the room, she saw Madame Sun waiting for her there. Lin Qingqian asked, "Are you looking for me for something?"

"I am not idle every day. I just came to warn you. The bandits in the northwest region are the targets of the Imperial Court. If we continue to stay here, "I'm afraid we'll be implicated." Madame Sun's tone was actually a little more concerned, even if Lin Qingqian knew about this matter from the start. But he was touched, and there was some room for reconciliation between them.
