Chapter 259 Who is the assassin?

Xiao Yunshuo immediately put his arm around his waist, used his lightness skills, and quickly left the general's mansion.

After putting her in a safe place, Xiao Yunshuo said, "Wait here for a moment. I'll meet up with Yuan Xu and come pick you up soon."

Chen Fenghe quickly grabbed him and asked with a frown, "The assassination of the Second Prince is related to Yuan Xu? Could it be that the assassin is Yuan Xu?"

Although she asked this question, Shen Fenghe denied this possibility in her heart from the beginning.

After all, before in Wanhua Tower, Xiao Yunshuo wanted to come to the general's mansion in person to rescue Qin Mengyue, and Yuan Xu was afraid that his identity would be exposed, so he tried his best to stop him.

It is impossible to take the initiative to assassinate the second prince now and cause unnecessary commotion.

Xiao Yunshuo looked at her, shook his head, and said, "It's not Yuan Xu. It's someone else."

"Your people?"

Xiao Yunshuo nodded and said, "Yes. This is a long story, I'll tell you when I get back."

Seeing this, Chen Fenghe knew that it was impossible to stop him. She nodded and said, "Then be careful. The Second Prince is your brother and should be very familiar with you, so even if you attack, try not to use common moves.

Xiao Yunshuo looked at her deeply and said, "I understand."

"Also, I can just go back to the inn by myself. Qu Wenmin has already discovered that Mother is gone. I'm afraid he'll go search the inn. If he finds me gone, I'm afraid something will happen again. Also, the poison in Mother's body needs to be removed quickly."

Hearing this, Xiao Yunshuo nodded and said, "Okay. Then you must be careful."

After saying that, he hugged her tightly, then used his lightness skills to re-enter the general's mansion.

Chen Fenghe glanced at him from a distance, then walked into the darkness and went directly back to the inn through the space.

Qin Mengyue had been sent back to the inn by Xiao Yunshuo. The three little guys were sleeping soundly and had not woken up yet.

Chen Fenghe breathed a sigh of relief, quickly took out the antidote she had prepared in advance from the space, and then carefully gave it to Qin Mengyue.

After a while, Qin Mengyue woke up and saw Chen Fenghe. She asked in confusion, "Feng...Fenghe?"

Then, recalling other things, she hurriedly grabbed Shen Fenghe's hand and asked nervously, "Fenghe, why are you here? Did Qu Wenmin capture you?"

Chen Fenghe quickly grabbed her hand and whispered soothingly, "Mom, it's okay. You are in the inn now, not the general's mansion. Look, Hao'er and Yichuan Qingxing are by your side."

Qin Mengyue was stunned for a moment, then looked to her side. The three little guys were sleeping quietly with only their heads exposed.

Qin Mengyue looked at Chen Fenghe in surprise: "What... is going on? Did you, Fenghe, save me? And Shuo'er... where is Shuo'er now? Did something happen to him?"

"Mother, it was His Highness and I who sneaked into the General's Mansion and rescued you. His Highness is fine, mother, you don't have to worry."

But...is it really okay?

Chen Fenghe's heart couldn't help but feel a little heavy. If he was really recognized by the Second Prince...

She closed her eyes, banishing this ominous thought from her mind, and said, "Mother, I'm afraid Qu Wenmin's men will come to the inn soon. Remember, you have caught a cold and are not feeling well. We have stayed in the room tonight and never left the inn. If you are asked about anything else, just say that you were asleep and didn't know anything."

Qin Mengyue was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Chen Fenghe meant.

That night, she was sold to a brothel by Qin Jinzhong and then taken back to the general's mansion by Qu Wenmin. If this were to get out, her reputation would be completely ruined.

Therefore, it is best to insist that you have never left the inn. This is the only foolproof plan.

She nodded and said, "I understand, Mother. Feng He, you are really thoughtful."

As they were talking, there was a sudden commotion downstairs.

"The general has ordered a city-wide search for the assassin! Everyone, come out!"
