Chapter 198: The Weak and Sick Beauty Has Strong Martial Arts Skills 20
Recently, the capital has been spreading the word about how effective prayers at the Huguo Temple are.
He said he hoped to get a good score in the college entrance examination and he actually got into the top three.
When the couple was having difficulty conceiving, they expressed their hope to have a child, and not long after returning home, they became pregnant.
He also said that his grandfather at home had been bedridden recently and he hoped that he would be in good health. After returning home and recuperating for a few months, he was already in much better health.
These words gradually spread from the common people to the ears of the aristocratic families, including An's mother.
She was a kind-hearted person who would worship Buddha when she had nothing to do. She believed in the rumors without a doubt, so she began to persuade Gu Xi.
"Xi'er, you seem to be getting pregnant more and more recently. I'm a little uneasy. The Huguo Temple has been very popular lately, and prayers are coming true. Why don't you and Mo'er go there and pray?"
"Mother is doing this for our own good, so naturally we all listen to her."
"Okay, okay." Mother An held Gu Xi's hand, "Then you and Mo'er can prepare in the next few days and go."
"It's mother." The two had no choice but to agree.
……
"Sister Xi, please be careful." Gu Xi has been pregnant for more than seven months, and her body is visibly heavy. An Fengmo couldn't help but worry and carefully helped her into the carriage.
Rather than calling her "wife", he still prefers to call Gu Xi "Sister Xi".
"My harmless husband."
Sure enough, no matter how much time has passed, he will still feel embarrassed when hearing Gu Xi call him husband, An Fengmo thought.
Huguo Temple is built on the top of Yangjing Mountain. Although the mountain is not very high, it is still unrealistic to let a pregnant woman climb the mountain.
An Fengmo held Gu Xi's hand and walked slowly up step by step. Despite this, Le Di still felt tired.
Her inner thoughts: If she hadn't known that Nangong Ming would send people to rob her today, she wouldn't have agreed to let An's mother come to climb the mountain. Why haven't the people sent by Nangong Ming come yet? She's so tired from climbing the mountain...
The surroundings are quiet, with only trees and grass on both sides of the steps forming a natural barrier, so it is particularly easy to hide.
But it was a little too quiet, Le Di thought, is it coming?
Suddenly a strong wind blew, and the fine sand on the steps was slowly blown up, catching everyone's eyes.
The people hiding in the dark, led by Lin, rushed out in an instant and headed straight towards Gu Xi.
Gu Xi is the primary target.
Many people believed the rumors and went up the mountain one after another. At this time, the assassin suddenly appeared and the crowd fell into panic.
"Sister Xi!" An Fengmo's first reaction was to look in the direction of Le Di. There was no one there...how could it be?
He just turned away from sight for a few seconds, how could such a big woman disappear...
Before he could carefully look for Gu Xi's figure, the assassin rushed towards him. Since they were going to a temple, An Fengmo was not carrying any weapons and could only defend passively for a while.
The assassin still remembered injuring An Fengmo, and the sharp sword deliberately left large and small sword wounds on An Fengmo's arms and legs. Gu Xi had it under control, and the goal was achieved, so the group quickly evacuated.
The people who caused the panic left, and the crowd became more and more crowded. They all wanted to seek refuge in the temple on the mountain, and they kept pushing forward.
There was no trace of Gu Xi, An Fengmo couldn't fly, and he was injured. He was forced to follow them forward, feeling anxious but helpless.
Le Di was kidnapped with her mouth and nose covered. The group walked away quickly using lightness skills. She knew that these were people sent by Nangong Ming, so she did not use any martial arts. Instead, she fell asleep peacefully and was taken away by Lin without any strength.
In the palace, Nangong Ming looked at the woman with her hands tied in front of him. She seemed to have fallen asleep, with her eyes closed and long eyelashes, looking very obedient.
Nangong Ming couldn't help but smile.
Lin knelt on the ground and spoke in a businesslike tone, "Your Majesty, I have followed your instructions. An Fengmo was scratched on the thigh and inner arm. We immediately searched the area, but there was no trace of Lan."
Nangong Ming was in a good mood at the moment and did not blame anyone after hearing this. "Lan has indeed betrayed me. I sensed something was wrong and ran away against orders. I'm not afraid of the toxins in my body erupting."
He glanced at Lin and said, "Forget it this time. If I learn of a rebellion again, the Dark Guard Battalion will have to be thoroughly reorganized. You can leave now."
"Yes."
(Ahhh, I really want to add him, or does anyone want to see it? Never mind, I have to hold back.)
