Cannon fodder She is targeted by yanderes in every dimension

Chapter 409: Cannon fodder merman in ancient Chinese literature 5

*

When Yun Wu woke up the next morning, Lu Jingzhi was no longer by her side.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a strange woman suddenly appear beside the bed, waiting there respectfully.

"Miss Yun, I, Qingluo, am here to serve you at the young marquis's request."

Although Qingluo looks ordinary, she has a heroic temperament and is well-behaved.

She thought that Miss Yun was really pretty. When the young marquis called out their secret guards this morning, she thought they had some mission.

As a result, she was chosen as a female secret guard to wait beside Miss Yun...

Yun Wu was still a little sleepy. She rubbed her eyes, sat up from the bed, and pointed at herself in a daze.

"Do I have someone to serve me?"

She was a little confused. Lord Tang asked her to serve Lu Jingzhi, and Lu Jingzhi asked Qingluo to serve her.

"Miss Yun, let me help you change your clothes."

Qingluo had a respectful smile on her face, and Yun Wu saw the light apricot dress embroidered with floral patterns in her hand.

It looks pretty nice, but definitely not as pretty as her fish tail.

Yun Wu stood there obediently, allowing Qingluo to put on and tie her clothes with some unfamiliar strips of cloth, and soon she was dressed.

She was dazed and was pulled by Qingluo to wash up. She also half-tied up her long hair and pinned it with a beautiful pearl hairpin.

"Breakfast is ready. Miss, would you like to eat first?"

Qingluo asked. The girl sitting in front of the dressing table seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked quickly:

"Where is the young marquis?"

"The Marquis is now discussing important matters in the study."

Qingluo responded, Yun Wu's expression wavered a little, and then said:

"Then I'll take a look around..."

In the study room opposite the dormitory, Lu Jingzhi was sitting at the desk, holding the found items presented by Eucommia and Juniper in his hand.

Juniper touched his chubby head, as if he had something on his mind. Then he couldn't bear it anymore and asked boldly:

"Young Marquis, do you really want to keep Miss Yun in the palace?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jingzhi raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly, but ignored him and continued to read every word of the record in his hand.

"Didn't you find anything?"

"Yes, young marquis, I and Du Song have asked someone to look through the disaster relief data of Liangzhou County in the past, and we really can't find any clues."

Du Zhong said, and Du Song put the matter of Miss Yun behind him for the time being, frowned slightly and added:

"Then Lord Tang really doesn't seem to be abnormal. Could it be that we are investigating the wrong person?"

"We have just arrived in Liangzhou County, so there is no rush. No matter if it is a mistake or not, we will continue to investigate."

Lu Jingzhi said lightly, looking up at the closed door of the study in a daze.

"What is the young marquis looking at?"

Du Zhong was reporting on recent events. He called Lu Jingzhi twice before he came back to his senses.

"nothing."

Lu Jingzhi said, then held the brush and listened to Du Zhong's report on important matters with some boredom.

Outside the door, Yun Wu was carefully leaning against the side and eavesdropping.

There are inner and outer courtyards in the palace. The inner courtyard is an important area where few people come and go, so Yun Wu was able to eavesdrop quietly by the study.

She didn't know if it was because the fish tail turned into legs, but she felt that her hearing had deteriorated a lot. The voices of the people inside were also very soft, so she couldn't hear clearly.

But it seems that they mentioned Lord Tang, and Yun Wu’s task was to eavesdrop on the news.

Just when Yun Wu was about to move closer to listen more carefully, she accidentally pressed her hand on the door.

Suddenly the door was pushed open and she staggered in.

"what……"

Her foot was tripped by the threshold and she almost fell down. She finally managed to steady her uncontrollable legs and stand still.

As a result, when she looked up, she met Lu Jingzhi's eyes. Two men, one fat and one thin, whom she had never seen before also turned to look at her.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward...

Yun Wu stood there blankly looking at Lu Jingzhi's eyes. She was almost scared to tears.

"F-Fairy?"

Juniper stared with wide eyes at the girl who suddenly broke in. Couldn't such a beautiful person have come from the sky?

Eucommia ulmoides raised her hand and gave him a roasted chestnut headshot, lowering her voice and saying:

"What fairy? This must be Miss Yun that the young marquis brought back yesterday..."

Lu Jingzhi's eyes were always looking at Yun Wu, and his face with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes was handsome and had the oppressive feeling of a superior.

The beautiful merman looked at him with a pair of sparkling eyes, and then said in a trembling voice:

"I'm here to look for the young marquis. Can you have breakfast with me..."

Yun Wu said weakly that she had lied so she looked away guiltily.

"it is good."

Lu Jingzhi agreed, put what he was holding on the table, and then stood up.

Yun Wu was still a little slow to react when Lu Jingzhi walked over.

He looked at her with his clear and beautiful eyes and said in a calm voice:

"Didn't you say you were going to have breakfast?"

"Ah? Eat, eat..."

Yun Wu nodded like a chick pecking at rice, then followed Lu Jingzhi out the door.

When she passed the threshold, she deliberately held onto the edge of the door and stepped over carefully, for fear of being tripped again.

Lu Jingzhi noticed her cute movements out of the corner of his eye, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

Du Zhong watched them leave one after another, with a worried look on his face.

"Du Song, I'm really worried that the young marquis will be seduced by beauty. Now I don't know whether Miss Yun is a good person or a bad person..."

"Ah? I don't know. The young marquis hasn't told me yet..."

Du Song, who was picking at his fingers with his head down, raised his head. He was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his chubby face looked seriously at Du Zhong, who was several years older than him.

Du Zhong raised his hand and patted Du Song's face, then said:

"None of your business, go play."

Yun Wu followed behind Lu Jingzhi, walking very slowly because she suddenly felt the pain in her ankle.

I hit my head against the threshold when I went in just now, and it still hurts.

She sniffed and was glad that she was too nervous to pay attention to the pain, otherwise she would have cried.

In addition to Lu Jingzhi, there were also his subordinates in the study just now. If she cried and turned into pearls, her identity would be discovered.

She kept Lu Jingzhi's words in mind. No one else knew her identity as a mermaid except him.

If she were discovered by others, she would be like a fish on the chopping board, being cut left and right.

Yun Wu was walking slowly, and suddenly the person in front of her stopped and turned around. As she walked, she bumped into Lu Jingzhi's arms.

"Little Marquis..."

Yun Wu quickly took a step back, raised his eyes and looked at Lu Jingzhi, he lowered his eyes and said:

"Do you want anything to eat? I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it."

"I can eat anything. Or just give me some small fish and shrimp to fill my stomach..."

Yun Wu said hurriedly, fearing that Lu Jingzhi would think that her diet was too complicated and throw her away.

Lu Jingzhi silently lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on her feet wearing embroidered shoes.

Then, under Yun Wu's watery gaze, he leaned over and carried Yun Wu on his shoulders.

"Eh?"

"You are so stupid. Can't you make a sound when your foot hurts?"

Lu Jingzhi's voice was light. Yun Wu was carried on his broad shoulders and felt comfortable without having to exert any strength on her feet.

After hearing this, she looked at Lu Jingzhi timidly, and then said weakly:

"squeak……"
