The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1262

Chapter 1262: 616 Princess of Hu Guo County (second update)

Princess Xinyang believing her? That’d be the day!

Princess Xinyang didn’t want to see those two little troublemakers, so she had them sent back.

She had Yujin summon Doctor Song to prepare a bowl of Contraceptive Soup.

On the other hand, Chang Jing had returned, unaware that Marquis Xuanping had met with an incident. He first went back to the Marquis Residence and learned of Marquis Xuanping’s whereabouts from Steward Liu.

Using his lightfoot skills, he arrived at Bishui Alley, where Xiao Hen and Gu Jiao were staying—it was packed, including Marquis Xuanping, Huangfu Xian, and the former Zhuang Yuheng, all staying at the old sacrificial official’s place.

Chang Jing instantly homed in on Marquis Xuanping’s presence.

He leapt through the window.

The sight inside made him draw his sword in an instant; he flashed to the bedside, shielding Marquis Xuanping behind him, warily scanning the surroundings for any disturbances.

Marquis Xuanping shook his wrists, bound to the bedpost, and said, "There’s no one here, come and untie this first."

"Oh." Chang Jing lifted his long sword and severed the ropes. His swordsmanship was precise, not harming Marquis Xuanping in the slightest.

Picking up the severed rope, he remarked curiously, "It’s just an ordinary rope. Why couldn’t you break free from this?"

Marquis Xuanping raised an eyebrow and sighed, "You don’t understand."

His strength had been drained.

Chang Jing furrowed his brow and his gaze swept over the chaotic scene, landing on Marquis Xuanping’s body, marred with "wounds," "Were you beaten up? Who did this? I’ll go kill him!"

This was just too miserable!

Chang Jing had followed Marquis Xuanping for so long and had never seen him suffer such grievous injuries!

Marquis Xuanping gave Chang Jing a sidelong glance, considering Chang Jing’s youth, he waved his hand, "Forget it, it’s nothing, let’s not pursue it. By the way, weren’t you chasing Nangong Li? Where is he now?"

Chang Jing’s expression darkened, "I didn’t catch him, he got away."

Marquis Xuanping looked at him in surprise, "Is there someone you can’t catch?"

It wasn’t that Chang Jing was invincible, but Nangong Li clearly was no match for him, especially with a broken arm and injuries—how could he still escape?

"Someone rescued him." Chang Jing hesitated for a moment before finally telling the truth, "It was a Protector from the Dark Night Organization."

Marquis Xuanping frowned, "The same Dark Night Organization you were with before?"
