Princess Ruyue was shocked when she heard this: "That's unlikely, isn't it? You lead an army of tens of thousands, and you have many trusted confidants protecting you.
No matter how brave they are, it's impossible for them to take action under such circumstances, right?
Besides, how could they possibly break through tens of thousands of troops to deal with you?"
Ye replied, "You underestimate their leaders. Since they are trying to seize the throne, they must have support from the army, whether openly or covertly.
Which prince who wants to seize the throne does not give priority to controlling military power?
Even if the prince only won over officials, he never got involved in military power.
But I believe that at least among the important military officials, they have already secretly defected to him.
Even in our army there are such people.
If you want to kill me, you don't have to defeat all the armies, you can just assassinate me secretly.
The more we think we'll be safe with tens of thousands of soldiers protecting us, the more we'll fall into their trap."
Princess Ruyue was very smart. After listening to Ye's explanation, she immediately reacted.
"You have a point. Regardless of whether they can do it or not, we must take strict precautions.
From now on, I will stay by your side and protect you.
And Rinyue, with the two of us protecting her, no soldiers are allowed to get close.
The enemy shouldn't find an opportunity to attack."
Seeing Princess Ruyue suddenly became very nervous.
Xu Ye could only try his best to persuade her: "Look at you, I didn't want to tell you originally because I was afraid you would worry.
There's no need to be so nervous. Now that I know the enemy's plan, I've already thought of a way to deal with it.
I will never let the other party succeed.
I haven't lived enough to put myself in danger."
"That won't do either. It's better to be cautious! They will do anything to seize the throne."
"Don't be nervous, neither the Crown Prince nor the Third Prince are as powerful as you think.
I'm not as bad as you think.
If we act as if we are facing a powerful enemy, it will only alert the enemy.
We should act as usual and be as relaxed as possible.
This will paralyze the opponent and make them think that they can easily assassinate him..."
"I see, what you mean is that you appear relaxed on the outside but tense on the inside, with no defenses at all on the surface.
Be more vigilant in secret."
"No, you still misunderstood my intention! You must let your guard down, both on the surface and in secret.
If the Crown Prince and the Third Prince really wanted to assassinate me, they would have made very careful arrangements.
I won't take action unless I'm absolutely sure.
So we have to act like it's real, without any guard up from the inside out."
Princess Ruyue really couldn't understand what Li Ye was thinking.
"Wouldn't that give the enemy an opportunity? If they really attack you, how can we protect you without you?"
Yuye whispered a few words into Princess Ruyue's ear.
Princess Ruyue's eyes widened: "You actually..."
Ye quickly reached out to cover her mouth: "Shh, be quiet, be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall!
You can rest assured, I value my life the most and will never do anything dangerous."
"Are you sure you can do it?" Princess Ruyue was still a little skeptical.
"Just trust me! Even if you can't trust me, you have to trust Lin Yue!
She would never let me do anything dangerous.
Since even she agrees with my plan, what else do you have to worry about?"
Princess Ruyue thought about it and felt that it made sense.
"Okay, then, let's follow your plan, but I still have one condition.
Even when I'm relaxing, I can't be too far away from you!
Okay, get me a set of ordinary armor.
I put on my armor and pretended to be an ordinary soldier nearby.
If I hear any noise, I'll come and rescue you immediately!"
Looking at Princess Ruyue's extremely nervous expression, Ye was deeply moved.
"Okay then! I'll do as you say! But you have to be careful too.
Maybe the assassin will clear out all the people around him before trying to kill me.
Don't let yourself be in danger before you have time to protect yourself.
How about this? Let Lin Yue dress up as a soldier and stay beside you.
As for Xiao Cui, let her follow Lei Ying first!"
"That's fine, this arrangement is suitable..." Princess Ruyue nodded in agreement.
After the two of them had discussed it, Princess Ruyue and Linyue quietly hid beside the commander-in-chief's tent.
Hiding in a small tent.
A small incision was made to observe the patient's condition.
It was the first time that Lin Yue saw Princess Ruyue care so much about someone, and she was very happy.
He was especially kind to Princess Ruyue.
Lin Yue persuaded: "My princess, there is no need to worry, His Highness is extremely skilled in martial arts.
A mere assassin could not threaten him at all.
Even if Shi Wushuang took action personally, he would not be able to succeed."
"That's a bit exaggerated, although I also hope that Ye Ye will be better.
But don't underestimate the heritage of Yunlu Pavilion.
Being taught by a master-level expert, his strength is very strong.
Even if Ye had secretly learned some martial arts, he could never compare with him.
Shi Wushuang is a combination of talent and hard work, how can others compare to him?"
Lin Yue smiled and didn't argue any further.
If someone said that Ye was stronger than Shi Wushuang, few people would believe it.
Only when you show it in person will it be more convincing.
Lin Yue did not tell Xiao Xian what happened.
Princess Ruyue was just waiting for the assassin to appear and be easily dealt with by Ye, and then she would naturally feel relieved.
For several days, the march went very smoothly.
Princess Ruyue even suspected that she had guessed wrong.
Perhaps the Third Prince and the Crown Prince were not brave enough to assassinate Ye.
"Don't they want to take any risks? Or do they plan to wait until Ye returns to Beijing before dealing with him?
It's been several days, it's time to take action a long time ago.
If we delay for too long and get closer to the capital, there will be no good opportunity to take action."
Lin Yue was able to keep her composure: "We have to trust our sixth sense and be on guard with all our heart.
Perhaps the assassin was looking for a better opportunity, or guessed that we were already on guard.
We are trying every possible way to monitor the situation.”
"You're right! The more we think it's impossible, the better the opportunity to assassinate."
Princess Ruyue tried hard to calm herself down.
In the past, I would have analyzed the situation very calmly.
But ever since I fell in love with Ye, I have become increasingly concerned about his safety.
As the saying goes, too much care leads to confusion, and I become more and more impatient.
But it is precisely because of this that Lin Yue likes her even more.
He believed that Princess Ruyue was definitely a perfect match for him.
Lin Yue's guess was absolutely correct.
The assassin used a fast cavalry of 800 miles and had already infiltrated the army two days ago.
They did not act immediately.
He was always observing the situation around Ye.
Find a better time to take action.
It must be accomplished in one fell swoop when no one expects it.
