After rebirth, she turned around and married the emperor's uncle and tore the scumbag apart

Chapter 581 This person should not be underestimated

Yunting returned to the yard and sat in the pavilion waiting for a reply.

Looking at the corpses all over the yard, Jiang Yan was so scared that she didn't dare to go anywhere. She could only follow Yun Ting closely and sit down beside him.

Sitting next to a dozen corpses, with no news from her mother, Jiang Yan sat there, twisting the hem of her clothes tightly with her fingers, her brows furrowed, and a look of worry on her face.

Seeing her like this, Yun Ting said, "The situation here has not been passed on yet. Madam Jiang will be fine. Miss Jiang just needs to wait here. The Jiang family should be here soon."

Jiang Yan nodded with red eyes and stammered, "I've never been away from my family for so long."

When she was at home, someone took care of everything and cared about her. But when she left her family, she felt an indescribable panic and fear.

Moreover, Ling'er was injured for her and her life or death is uncertain.

She regretted it very much and shouldn't have let Ling'er take the risk.

Seeing her worried look, Yun Ting's voice was much softer than usual: "I will stay with you until Lord Jiang comes."

Yun Ting's words, like a promise, made Jiang Yan feel inexplicably at ease, and her panic and anxiety dissipated.

Jiang Yan's cheeks felt inexplicably hot, and her heartbeat inexplicably quickened as she looked at Yun Ting.

Noticing Jiang Yan's change, Yun Ting looked away and looked up at the blue sky in front of him, waiting for the pigeon to reply.

When Jiang Yan saw Yun Ting looking away, she realized how rude she was. She quickly looked away as well and changed the subject, asking, "Master Yun, how did you know I was kidnapped?"

Yun Ting was still looking at the sky in front of him. "I went out to do some work, and on the way back, I happened to see Miss Ling and a woman lying on the ground. I asked the woman and found out that you had been kidnapped, so I chased after you."

Upon hearing that Yun Ting had seen Ling Ling, Jiang Yan hurriedly grabbed his arm and asked anxiously, "How is Ling'er?"

Yun Ting glanced at the hand on his arm, then looked away and said calmly, "I gave her emergency medicine and had the maid drive her back to the royal city for treatment. She was still alive when we left."

These words made Jiang Yan's anxious heart relax a little, but she was still worried.

"Can Ling'er's injury be cured? Will she... die?" Jiang Yan was full of anxiety.

If Ling'er died, she would blame herself for the rest of her life.

"I don't know. If Miss Jiang is worried about her, please recite some scriptures and pray for her. Maybe the gods will hear your prayers."

It’s like a person in the fog seeing a guiding street light.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, shining on Yun Ting, as if giving him a layer of glory, so dazzling and warm.

Jiang Yan nodded, put her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed sincerely for Ling Ling.

After waiting for another half an hour, a pigeon fluttered down and landed on the stone table in front of Yunting. It took a few steps and made a "cooing" sound.

Yunting caught the pigeon, took the letter from its leg, released the pigeon, and began to read the letter.

Jiang Yan couldn't tell from his expression whether he was happy or angry, so she asked, "What's written on it?"

Yun Ting handed the letter to Jiang Yan without saying anything.

Jiang Yan looked at the secret letter in her hand, then looked at Yun Ting, her eyes full of disbelief.

Yun Ting glanced at the surprised Jiang Yan, then retracted his gaze and slowly took off the mask on his face.

He hadn't used his true face for a long time, and he was a little uncomfortable with the strange feeling.

Before Jiang Yan could recover from the joy of Yun Ting being her bodyguard, she suddenly saw Yun Ting tearing off something that looked like human skin from his face, and he instantly changed his face.

"My God!"

When Jiang Yan saw Yun Ting's true appearance, she couldn't help but scream in surprise. She raised her hand to cover her open mouth, staring at Yun Ting with her bright eyes wide open.

It took her a while to realize what Yun Ting was holding in his hand.

Jiang Yan didn't expect that what was written in the storybook would actually happen to him, and... Mr. Yun's true appearance was so handsome.

The young man is like jade, as sharp as a jade, with eyebrows as sharp as a knife and eyes as deep as a pool.

More handsome than anyone she had ever seen, like someone in a painting.

Yun Ting saw the surprise on Jiang Yan's face, and her face gradually turned red. He moved the corners of his mouth and said, "In order to avoid implicating the palace, I will be the guard of the Jiang Mansion in the future. My name is Jiang Ting. If others ask, Miss Jiang, please don't let it slip."

Jiang Yan nodded in surprise.

She couldn't believe that something she had imagined countless times in her dreams was actually happening.

"Will you always protect me?"

"On the surface, I am a guard of the Jiang Mansion, but secretly, I am still a member of the Wang Mansion." The Wang Mansion cannot do without him now, and he cannot do without the Wang Mansion either.

Jiang Yan understood that on the surface he was a member of her family, but on weekdays he probably had to go back to the palace.

She felt inexplicably lost, but then she thought again that they would at least see each other less than before, and Jiang Yan's heart calmed down again.

"What is this made of?" Jiang Yan stared at the mask in Yun Ting's hand curiously and looked at it carefully.

Yun Ting placed the mask on the table and said, "Boil the pig skin into glue."

This is how face changing works in storybooks.

Jiang Yan curiously poked it with her hand, pinched it, and looked at it carefully.

Before the sun set, Li Huaizhi, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, finally arrived with his men.

The moment the courtyard gate opened, Jiang Yan saw Jiang Siyuan in front of her. She didn't care about anything else and threw herself into his arms, crying.

"Brother, I'm so scared! Woo woo..."

"Big brother knows, baby, everything is fine now."

Jiang Siyuan felt so distressed when he saw his sister crying like this and wearing only coarse linen clothes. She had never been so miserable in her fifteen years at home.

Patting Jiang Yan on the back, Jiang Siyuan coaxed, "Yan'er, Lord Li from the Dali Temple is here. Tell Lord Li what happened first."

Jiang Yan then sobbed and let go of Jiang Siyuan, leaning towards Li Huai's happiness.

Li Huaizhi gave her a false support and said, "Miss Jiang, there's no need to be so polite. This is not the place to talk. Let's go into the yard and talk."

When they went in together, they naturally saw the Yunting Pavilion in the yard.

Yun Ting saw Jiang Siyuan and bowed to him: "Young Master."

"Who is this?" Li Huaizhi looked at the handsome young man in front of him and had no impression of him.

Jiang Siyuan introduced: "This is my family's guard, Jiang Ting. He saved my little sister."

After that, he instructed Yun Ting, "Jiang Ting, this matter is about Lord Li, the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple. You and Yan'er must tell Lord Li everything one by one. Don't hide anything or make any mistakes."

Yun Ting bowed respectfully: "Yes!"

……

After listening to Jiang Yan and Yun Ting's statements, Li Huaizhi had a general idea in his mind, but he did not show too much emotion.

Until everything is verified, everything is unknown. This is his experience from many years of work.

This matter concerned two ministers, so Li Huaizhi did not dare to be negligent and personally inspected all the bodies at the scene.

He carefully examined the wounds on each body. From the direction the bodies fell and the appearance of their wounds, he could tell that only one person had fallen toward the inside of the yard, while the others had fallen toward the outside. Furthermore, the person facing inside had their necks slashed open, while those facing outside had their backs facing upwards. Clearly, after one person died, the others, realizing they couldn't fight back, attempted to flee, only to be silenced.

Li Huaizhi explained the situation in detail to his subordinates and recorded it in the file.

After finishing the recording, Li Huaizhi glanced at Yun Ting with deep eyes.

This young man is only in his early twenties, yet he is so skilled in martial arts. Moreover, his swordsmanship is fierce and decisive, and he attacks without a trace of hesitation.

This person should not be underestimated.
