The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1970

Chapter 1970: Chapter 981: Late-Night Tenderness (Xinyang vs. Xiao Ji Extra) (Part 3)

He killed countless people on the battlefield, but he also protected many more.

Xiao Ji efficiently erased all traces of their stay, and then left through the back door with Princess Xinyang.

Because the Dongyi people had divided at least half of their forces to search for the assassin, it resulted in a sharp decrease in the guards around the mysterious Young Master.

Xiao Ji successfully infiltrated the mysterious Young Master’s residence, knocked him and the servant unconscious, tied them up and stuffed them into a chest, with their mouths gagged.

Outside the courtyard came the voices of Dongyi soldiers talking.

"Master Wu, we didn’t find the assassin!"

"Neither did we!"

"Same here, we’ve searched every house, even the hilltops, and found nothing! Perhaps the assassin has already escaped!"

"Escaped? Hmph, I don’t think so!" This person’s tone was quite different from the previous soldiers, he must be Master Wu that the soldier spoke of.

He said alertly, "The Young Master’s safety is the most important. If the assassin is still lurking in the shadows and ambushes the Young Master at midnight, our heads won’t be safe!"

Princess Xinyang couldn’t help but glance at the chest.

Who is this Young Master that’s so important?

Apart from looking a bit like a pretty face, she didn’t notice anything particularly remarkable about him.

If the Dongyi people knew her evaluation of the person in the chest, they’d probably cough up blood in anger.

This person was Dongyi’s most handsome man, yet in her mouth, he had become an average pretty face.

"Young Master!"

Outside the door rang Master Wu’s voice, "There’s an issue in the village, we may have to travel overnight, please, Young Master, get on the carriage immediately."

Xiao Ji and Princess Xinyang finished disguising themselves. Xiao Ji was slightly taller and more robust than the Young Master, but the hat and cloak made it less noticeable.

As for the servant, he was small in stature, so Princess Xinyang could play the part without much pressure.

The face naturally didn’t resemble, so she had to hide it.
