Chapter 171 Killing two birds with one stone

   "How's Miss Li?" Yang Houcheng strode over, seeing a group of girls with nowhere to go, so he asked aloud from the side.

He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, which is a kind of heroic spirit different from Wenxiu scholars, but the noble ladies in the capital favor a handsome, beautiful and picturesque character like Chi Can, and suddenly saw a tall young man walking over , Suddenly startled, hurriedly dispersed, revealing Qiao Zhao.

   "Miss Li—" Yang Houcheng saw that Qiao Zhao's hand covering his cheek was covered with blood, and his face changed at that time, he raised his foot to go over, but was pulled by Zhu Yan.

"Miss Li, don't be afraid, the doctor will be here soon." Zhu Yan pulled Yang Houcheng to stand not far away, and after comforting Qiao Zhao turned his head to Du Feiyang and said, "Cousin, you let my little servant speed up. Hurry back to Taining Hou's mansion, my family has a top-grade cloud cream, maybe it can come in handy."

   "Hmm." Du Feiyang glanced at the terrifying girl with a complicated expression, and hurriedly ordered someone to notify Zhu Yan's servant.

   "Sister Li San, does it hurt?" Su Luoyi's face was pale, and a layer of sweat broke out on her smooth forehead.

   "Sanmei, how is your injury?" Li Jiao sobbed.

  Ouyang Weiyu came over, took out the snow-white handkerchief and handed it over: "Miss Li San, press it with this."

  Qiao Zhao released his hand, took the handkerchief Ouyang Weiyu handed over, and reluctantly said, "Thank you—"

   She secretly made countless mental preparations, but she did not expect that the pain was still severe. She had already been numb just now, and now she is slowly feeling the pain.

  The moment Qiao Zhao let go of her hand, the wound on her right face appeared in front of people, and the exclamations came one after another, and every girl who saw the wound on her face turned pale with fright.

   "Heaven, there's even a cut on her face, is Miss Li San disfigured?"

   "Look at that wound is quite serious, no matter how good the cloud cream is, it will cause scars. In the future, Miss Li San will be in trouble."

   "Oops, what a pity—"

   The rambling discussion made a noise, like countless mosquitoes and flies buzzing in Jiang Shiran's ears, Jiang Shiran closed her eyes and said loudly, "Shut up!"

  The scene suddenly fell silent, and countless eyes were cast on Jiang Shiran.

   Jiang Shiran became more and more angry, raised her bow and pointed at Qiao Zhao and said, "She must have moved randomly, or I wouldn't have missed it!"

  The girls didn't say a word, but they sneered in their hearts: As expected of the daughter of the commander of Jinlinwei, she is so arrogant and domineering that no one can match her. I am afraid that even the princess standing here will not be so arrogant in the face of the injured girl, not even a perfunctory apology, and put the blame on the victim.

   Not all the girls present had a favorable impression of Qiao Zhao, but how important the appearance of the girl's family was. Seeing it was ruined like this with her own eyes, it was inevitable that she would feel sympathy, and in the face of Jiang Shiran's aggressiveness, she had the same hatred.

  These people are either from the family of civil servants and military generals or from the noble family. Only Jiang Shiran's father is very special, so special that everyone respects it, but it is difficult to belong to any faction.

  Qiao Zhao seemed to be an outsider, looking blankly at the girls' silent accusations against Jiang Shiran.

   She wanted to laugh a little, but she didn't dare to touch the wound. She could only think to herself: She likes killing two birds with one stone like this.

   Even though she is not as noble as everyone present, she is also the daughter of an official. In order to embarrass her, Jiang Shiran proposed to let her be an arrow target. How could she have considered her dignity and feelings at all? If she was just a real thirteen-year-old girl, she would have been embarrassed long ago.

   No matter how good Jiang Shiran's archery is, and no matter how foolproof he thinks he is, it is a great disrespect to the person who is being tested for teaching. In the final analysis, Jiang Shiran raised this topic, making things difficult for people second, and more importantly, showing off Miss Jiang's superb archery skills and making a lot of money.

  Miss Qiao has learned a lot from her grandfather, but she has never learned how to write the words "submissiveness". It would be strange for people who want to step on her dignity to show their faces.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Shiran was not stupid, the silent accusations of the women made her embarrassed, but she couldn't find out which one to question, and finally aimed at Qiao Zhao, "Speak up, Did you miss the shot by moving around?"

"Enough!" Yang Houcheng was finally furious, walked a few steps between Qiao Zhao and Jiang Shiran, and said to Jiang Shiran with a dark face, "Is it reasonable for you to hurt someone? Who gave you such confidence? Use a living person as an arrow target? Your father?"

  Yang Houcheng liked to dance with guns and sticks since he was a child. He seldom attended the parties of those sons and buddies, and knew fewer girls, but Jiang Shiran had known each other since he was a child. There is no other reason. The Queen Mother is his great-aunt. He was often called into the palace to play when he was a child, so he naturally knew Jiang Shiran, who also often visited the palace.

   "You—what's your business?" It had been a long time since no one dared to speak to her like this, and Jiang Shiran became angry.

   "Some people shovel Lu Buping, and others take care of things. It's better for me to be meddling than you to cause trouble!" Seeing the blood on Qiao Zhao's face, Yang Houcheng was very angry, and he didn't save Jiang Shiran any face.

   Zhu Yan's eyes flashed slightly, as if it was the first time she knew Yang Houcheng, and she gave him a deep look.

   In the past, her brother's friend gave her the impression that she was a careless and careless person. Now, it seems that such a person is not bad, at least better than her brother's anxious!

   Zhu Yan glanced at her brother.

   When she is stupid, don't look at her brother's face as if nothing has happened, that is to fool outsiders, but in fact, I don't know how much to worry about, even if I don't see the blue veins popping out of my hands.

   She said that Fifth Brother and Miss Li San must have known each other.

   These thoughts flashed in Zhu Yan's heart, and she saw Zhu Yan wink at her.

  The two brothers and sisters have a good heart, and Zhu Yan quickly understood what Zhu Yan meant, and stepped forward to support Qiao Zhao: "Miss Li San, I will help you go to the house and wait first."

   She got closer and saw better, and couldn't help biting her lower lip.

   How painful this must be, Miss Li San actually didn't say a word!

   "No need." Qiao Zhao opened his mouth and looked at Du Feixue who was the master, "Miss Du, I want to say goodbye."

   Du Feixue's face changed: "How can this be done? You go back like this, aren't people laughing at our uncle's residence?"

   "Yeah, Sanmei, you have a lot of blood on your face, why do you have to wait for the doctor to treat the wound before going home." Li Jiao advised.

  Qiao Zhao gently pressed the wound with the handkerchief, with a firm expression: "No, I have to go home and deal with it."

"That's not good, you are deliberately embarrassing me like this. You were injured in our house and went back like this. What should others think of our uncle?" Du Feixue paused, feeling that it was a bit ruthless, and added. , "Besides, you can treat the wound first so that it won't get infected, and you can recover better in the future."

"Everyone present can testify that I'm going back, and I won't blame Miss Du." His cheeks hurt more and more, but the sweat from Qiao Zhao's palms was cold. to leave.
