Cannon fodder She is targeted by yanderes in every dimension

Chapter 412: Cannon fodder merman in ancient Chinese literature 8

*

Early the next morning, Lu Jingzhi was ready to set out for a coastal patrol, which was also what he needed to do during his visit to the coastal area.

At the gate of the palace, the brothers Du Zhong and Du Song had already prepared the horses, and they were followed by a team of guards.

Lu Jingzhi stood under the eaves, wearing a brocade robe with dark patterns and a half-crown on his hair. He looked like a graceful and gentle man, but his frown made him look a bit more fierce.

Du Zhong and Du Song, who were leading a red-maned horse to the door, walked forward and bowed.

"Young Marquis, everything is ready. Let's go. Looking at the weather, I wonder if it will rain today..."

Du Zhong said that he originally wanted to ask the team of guards who were resting to get up and get dressed.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jingzhi raised his hand to signal.

"Wait a minute."

"Wait? Who else do you want to wait for, young master?"

Du Song touched his head and said that he and Du Zhong were both here.

Lu Jingzhi turned around silently and looked towards the courtyard inside the palace.

The next second, he saw a petite figure in a sky-blue dress rushing towards him.

Lu Jingzhi narrowed her eyes slightly. The little mermaid was wearing a dress that was the same color as her fishtail today. She looked very smart and beautiful.

She was carrying a small bag with some things stuffed inside. She lifted her skirt and quickened her pace to get to Lu Jingzhi.

"Miss Yun?"

Du Song blinked his eyes wide open, he didn't expect that the person the young marquis said he was waiting for was actually a fairy.

Lu Jingzhi's eyes fell on the small bundle carried by Yun Wu.

Yun Wu looked down at the bag she had brought with her, and then quickly explained to Lu Jingzhi:

"I brought some food..."

"Eat?"

Lu Jingzhi's voice was particularly pleasant. Yun Wu's face, which was not made up, was very fair. She tilted her neck slightly and looked at the tall Lu Jingzhi:

"Young Marquis, I got up late this morning and haven't had breakfast yet, so I brought some out..."

Her bright eyes were timid as she clutched the small bag, fearing that Lu Jing would tell her not to bring the food with her.

"Then take it with you."

Lu Jingzhi said calmly, he just looked at the little mermaid carrying the bag...

It's really cute.

Yun Wu turned her head and looked at the team of guards and several horses ready to go at the bottom of the stairs.

The guards were dark-skinned and looked honest and dutiful. When they saw her, they immediately bowed their heads and called her "Miss Yun".

The rough men who had been in the military camp for many years had never seen such a beautiful girl. Now they all kept their heads down and dared not look up.

"But young marquis, Miss Yun probably doesn't know how to ride a horse..."

Du Zhong said hesitantly, and Lu Jingzhi seemed to be prepared. The next second, he saw the palace's coachman driving a carriage from the back door.

"You take the carriage."

Lu Jingzhi said this, and then walked down the stairs, with Yun Wu following closely behind him.

The carriage was not big, but it was just right for traveling. The coachman hurriedly got off the carriage and prepared to get a step stool so that Yun Wu could step on it to get into the carriage.

But as soon as the coachman got off the carriage, Lu Jingzhi stood beside the carriage and extended his hand towards Yun Wu.

"Go up."

Yun Wu carefully placed her hand on Lu Jingzhi's broad and strong palm, and with the help of her strength, she got on the carriage in one go.

Afterwards, Lu Jingzhi still looked calm as he sat on his mount, which was a red-maned horse named "Xueju".

Du Zhong and Du Song also got on their horses one after another, and Du Zhong looked worried.

"The relationship between the young marquis and Miss Yun has become closer, but I am still worried. If the marquis is deceived..."

"Oh, don't worry about it. The young marquis is so wise and brave. If Miss Yun had any ulterior motives, the young marquis would have discovered it long ago and would definitely not let her stay in the palace."

Du Song climbed onto the horse with great effort and said to Du Zhong beside him, then he showed a silly smile.

"Besides, Miss Yun is so pretty and has a good personality. It would be great if she could become the wife of the young marquis, hehe..."

"Idiot."

Du Zhong curled his lips and was too lazy to complain about Du Song anymore, but he was right. It would be better to listen to the young marquis's opinion on this matter.

Yun Wu was sitting alone in the carriage, and the coachman was driving the carriage closely behind Lu Jingzhi and others.

The streets of Liangzhou City were quite busy. Lu Jingzhi was riding on his horse with great dignity, attracting the attention of many people on both sides of the street.

Many people went to see the handsome young marquis, but the people from a paper-making shop in a small alley did not join in the fun.

"Grandma, you have just recovered from your illness. Please stop coming out and getting blown by the wind."

Yue Sangning hurriedly tried to dissuade his grandmother. Old lady Yue was wearing simple clothes and looked a little weak, but her attitude was firm.

"Sang Ning, who did you borrow the money from to buy medicine? I, an old lady, have to pay it back right away..."

"Grandma, that was given to me by a kind lady. Don't worry, I will definitely pay her back for her kindness."

Yue Sangning finally persuaded his grandmother to go back home, and he sighed to himself at the door.

At that time, she was worrying about the money for her grandmother's medicine, when suddenly someone threw a few pearls at her feet.

She searched hurriedly and saw the figure of a woman in the sea behind the reef, and vaguely seemed to see a fish tail under her.

Yue Sangning had heard of the legend of mermaids since he was a child, but that was the first time he saw one, and he thought he was seeing things.

He wanted to go forward to check and express his gratitude, but he saw from afar that the beautiful mermaid was caught in a fishing net. Soon, she was covered with a black cloth and was taken away to an unknown place. Yue Sangning followed them and was lost.

She had always wanted to find the trace of the mermaid and thank her for giving her the pearl so that she could sell it to buy medicine.

"Ugh……"

Yue Sangning sighed and was about to get his fishing gear, but when he looked up, he saw a carriage passing by on the street not far away.

A breeze blew by, and the curtains of the carriage windows were blown up for a moment, briefly revealing the delicate and beautiful profile of the girl sitting inside.

"She is……"

Yue Sangning was a little stunned. The curtain of the carriage soon fell down again and the carriage disappeared from her sight.

But when she saw it just now, the person sitting in the carriage, if she was not mistaken, was the mermaid who gave her the pearl!

"Wait! Wait—"

Yue Sangning ran quickly to catch up with the carriage, but was stopped by people on both sides of the street.

"That's the team that the young marquis is inspecting. Don't go up to stop them, or you may be punished."

"Young Marquis?"

Yue Sangning was stunned and watched the carriage leave from afar. She also heard that the inspector sent by the court, Young Marquis Lu, had arrived in Liangzhou City.

So was her savior captured by the young marquis?
