"Plop …" "Ahh!" "A miserable scream came from outside the carriage. Madame Li's body fell to the ground under the carriage. She was already covered in wounds, and having been tossed over by the carriage, she died before she could get up.

"What happened?" They just took the money and wanted to kidnap a young lady for the night, and did not think of killing her. Just now, they had just been slashing at the carriage with their sabers, but a woman suddenly fell out of the carriage and even died. They were all panicked, and their leader, seeing that something was wrong, quickly called his brothers to leave.

As the sound of the horse hooves gradually faded away, Lin Yuxi felt weak all over her body, but she could not relax now. She quickly opened the curtain and shouted to the driver, who had yet to recover from the shock, "Quickly go to the capital and find Sir Jing Zhaoyin! There has been a bandit robbery, Lord Jing Zhaoyin will definitely help us!"

"Yes …" It's the young miss! " Lin Yuxi's face was pale, she could not hide the fatigue on her face, and her body was trembling. Last night, she had been tortured by a strange man, and now, after experiencing so many things, she really wanted to lie down like this, but she couldn't, she couldn't give up just like that, there was still a very important battle waiting for her!

The carriage was stopped at the entrance of the city, and the coachman told the guard about what had happened at the foot of the mountain of the Temple of Guan Li in a frightened and trembling voice. When the coachman told the soldier that the young lady of the House of Jianning had almost met with an accident, he hurriedly took the coachman to Jing Zhaoyin.

"Young miss Lin, are you alright?" Lord Jing Zhaoyin was in his forties, and he had a dignified expression on his face. Although he had heard the driver's words, he still wanted to hear Lin Yuxi's explanation.

"I... I don't know what happened. " Lin Yuxi's face turned pale. She had just changed into the clothes that Lord Jing Zhaoyin had prepared for her. Since Lord Jing Zhaoyin didn't have a daughter, she had no choice but to find a servant girl to dress her.

"It's actually two servants that are protecting me. Rest assured, I will definitely uphold justice for you!" Now, all he had to do was wait for the yamen runners to come back and report the situation at the foot of the Temple of Guan Li. He knew that what Lin Yuxi said was true.

"Thank you, Lord Jing Zhaoyin, but my father …" It's my father's birthday today, and I'm afraid Yu Xi cannot stay here for long. I hope sire will allow her to return to the House of Jianning first. If sire has anything to say, you can summon her anytime you want! "

"That's right, I almost forgot. My wife is also going to attend your father's birthday banquet. How about this, let her accompany you back. I don't feel at ease looking at you like this." Lord Jing Zhaoyin did not have a daughter. Although she was frightened to the point that her face turned pale, she still remembered her father's birthday. It was a blessing to have such a filial daughter.

"Thank you, Lord Jing Zhaoyin!" It would be for the best if there was someone to accompany him back. Lord Jing Zhaoyin was indeed an upright and righteous person. Under his rule, it was rare to hear of any malefactors roaming about.
