Chapter 48 Assassin
Those children should have been carefree, but because of those evil people who were blinded by greed, they were forced to become tools of killing.
He didn't want to see such things happening continuously. It had to stop with him, and Ye Mu had to die.
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
Yang Lin smiled gently at Rong Yu, and the reluctance in his eyes was clearly visible: "I should go back now, take care of yourself."
Yang Lin turned to leave but was stopped by Rong Yu. Rong Yu pulled out a life-saving talisman from his pocket and placed it in Yang Lin's hand: "This is a life-saving talisman I got from the temple. It will definitely protect you."
This was something Ye Chenyin had someone specially request from Lingshan Temple, and he specifically instructed Rongyu not to leave his side and to keep him safe.
Ever since that incident at Prince Xiang’s Mansion, Ye Chenyin has been really scared. He is really afraid that something unexpected will happen to Rong Yu again.
Yang Lin held the golden life-saving amulet, smiled gently, and thought to himself, can he still get the Buddha's blessing?
"Okay." Yang Lin put it on his chest and wore it close to his body.
"My name is Rong Yu now, remember that."
After leaving Luosha Hall, you should also have your own name.
"Time cannot be seized suddenly, so just relax and enjoy yourself! What a good name." Then he added: "Take good care of yourself."
Yang Lin whispered that even though he was reluctant, he had no choice. Everyone has his own obsession, and his obsession is that there will be no more children like them.
"Did Ye Mu die in the end? Is Yang Lin still alive?"
"In the original novel, Ye Mu died, but Yang Lin's death is unknown. He was only described as being seriously injured, but the author did not explain where he went."
Although the ending was not mentioned, the author probably didn't want him to die, otherwise he wouldn't have just said that he was injured and not directly written him as dead.
When Rongyu returned to the tent, Ye Chenyin had not returned yet. There was only a plate of butterfly pastries on the table, which was what he usually ate at Prince Jing's Mansion.
It should have been sent by Ye Chenyin, as he was afraid that he would be neglected if he was away for too long.
Rongyu picked up the snack and took a bite. For some reason, she found it was not as delicious as the one she had at home.
But what he was most worried about at the moment was how Emperor Gan would kill Ye Chenyin?
What on earth will that bastard Emperor Gan come up with?
Now he really regretted not watching "Legend of Zhen Huan" carefully. He should have learned all the tricks in it, so that he would not be unable to understand what they were thinking.
"Concubine Xian and Song Mei'an haven't seen each other for such a long time. Do you think they will meet secretly?"
Or maybe Emperor Gan deliberately let them meet so that he would have an excuse to kill Song Mei'an and he wouldn't have to feel like he had to wear this hat every day.
"Even if they were found meeting, Emperor Gan would not dare to kill Song Mei'an."
"You're not angry about your wife cheating on you? Is this what a fool is?"
Shouldn't he be furious and execute Song Mei'an's entire family and cut them into pieces?
"Emperor Gan really likes Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xian really likes Song Mei'an. If Song Mei'an dies, Concubine Xian will definitely not live. Emperor Gan dare not gamble. He has always threatened Concubine Xian with Song Mei'an's life to stay alive."
Holy shit, with such a melodramatic plot, the three of them can definitely write a book of their own, and it will definitely be more popular than this one.
The more earthy, the higher the top.
As he spoke, he didn't know why, but Rong Yu felt like he was dizzy and drunk. He didn't drink any alcohol, so why did he feel drunk?
"Did I drink alcohol just now?"
At this point he wasn't even sure if he had been drinking.
"Why is it still a little hot?" He took off his coat.
"You didn't drink alcohol just now. Oh, are you poisoned?"
Um?
Rongyu glanced at the butterfly cake on the table. He had just eaten this. Was there medicine in it?
It turns out that he was just a part of the play. How could he have anything to do with killing Ye Chenyin?
Rong Yu could feel that the drug he had taken was very powerful and he would soon be unable to bear it.
"Host, can you still hold on? Ye Chenyin should be back soon."
"There's no one else here, so I have to persevere even if I can't."
In just a short while, Rongyu's forehead was covered with sweat, and his body felt very uncomfortable. Rongyu forced himself not to take off all his clothes, leaving only an inner garment.
It’s just that the abnormal changes in the body are really unbearable, and Rongyu can’t help but reach out to touch it, which makes it feel a little better.
Rongyu was already unconscious at this moment, with blurry eyes and unable to see clearly.
He just felt someone approaching him, and his brain was unable to think, so he naturally hugged the person.
In that instant, my body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar and felt much cooler.
“Your Highness…!”
Rongyu kept twisting in his arms and even wanted to take off his clothes.
His hands were restrained, and a gentle voice rang out: "Let me show you who I am."
Rongyu had no idea who he was, and her body's instinctive reaction was subconscious.
"Your Highness, you are Ye Chenyin..."
Although the murmurs in his mouth were unclear, you could still hear them if you listened carefully.
Ye Chenyuan felt itchy as he looked at the tender pink person in his arms, but he couldn't take advantage of her. If she really wanted him, then he would be no different from Ye Chenming.
And judging by Rong Yu's words, he and Ye Chenyin should not have a simple master-servant or friend relationship. Perhaps they have long...
Rongyu was feeling more and more uncomfortable, as if her body was going to explode at any moment. She had reached her limit.
Suddenly, a long-awaited downpour came, and the touch of the stars was like small raindrops, watering the dry seedlings.
Although the body didn't feel any violent collisions, nor did it have the usual pain, it just wanted more.
It's even like a bucket with a hole in it, which can never be filled no matter how much water is poured into it.
The noise outside seemed to be from two different worlds compared to the two people in the house. Emperor Gan had already come out of the tent and was looking at the masked man in black not far away, with a hint of darkness in his eyes.
He looked around and found that King Yan and King Jing were not there. The officials who were a little braver had already stood in front of him.
There were also those who flirted with their beloved concubine in front of him.
"Are you from Rakshasa Hall?" Tao Yi asked.
......
No one answered.
Emperor Gan was completely bewildered. Why was this different from what he had expected? Shouldn't the Princes of Yan and Jing come to protect the emperor when assassins were coming? Then, he could just push Prince Jing out, making it a logical conclusion that the assassin had killed him, and he wouldn't feel any burden.
How come both of them disappeared at the critical moment?
"Kill the dog emperor."
At a command, the sword was pointed at the emperor, and the scene was instantly drowned by the sound of metal. The civil officials looked panicked, only Song Mei'an stared at Wang Ruomu, and Wang Ruomu did the same.
But what Song Mei'an didn't notice was that Xu Yingying was also looking at him with worry.
"Your Majesty, please return to the tent first. We will definitely bring these villains to justice." Tao Yi said.
Emperor Gan was also afraid that the killer would be so bloodthirsty that he couldn't tell friend from foe, so he could only go back to the tent and hide.
However, when he turned around, he still looked around without giving up, but did not see the person he was expecting.
Inside the tent, Emperor Gan sat down with his hand on his forehead, except for a few ministers who were worried about the situation outside.
The remaining concubines all had expressionless faces and did not take this dangerous matter seriously at all.
Wang Ruomu smiled, which was rare for her. Perhaps she was thinking that it would be fine to die with Song Meian, and Song Meian thought the same.
When Ye Chenming was not around, Wu Pingting had already lost all hope and wished those people would rush in and kill them all.
The sound of metal continued to be heard outside the tent, and it showed no signs of stopping for nearly half an hour.
Emperor Gan really wanted to rush out to see what went wrong. Not only did Prince Jing not show up, but his most beloved Prince Yan didn't come either?
Could it be that something unexpected has happened?
As I thought of this, I suddenly heard the noise outside getting louder.
Less than an incense stick of time passed before the outside gradually quieted down. Tao Yi rushed into the tent, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists, and said, "Your Majesty, the assassin has been apprehended."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and slowly walked outside.
The gloomy night was dyed blood red with mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The smell of blood filled the entire nasal cavity, which was as terrifying as hell.
Emperor Gan frowned as he looked at the fallen corpse, as if he was looking for something.
Suddenly, a pair of deep and cold eyes met his, and Emperor Gan was shocked and a little annoyed.
Ye Chenyin looked at him as if he was a stranger, with no emotion in his eyes.
"I'm sorry that I came late to save you, and frightened my father and mother."
Ye Chenyuan walked forward, looking worried.
"You didn't show up just now, and I thought something happened to you. I'm glad you're okay." Xu Yingying said.
"I drank quite a bit of wine during the feast and fell asleep as soon as I got back to my tent. It was my fourth brother who woke me up."
Ye Chenyuan recalled that before he fell asleep, he seemed to be in the Rongyu tent, but he couldn't remember how he fell asleep.
If Ye Chenyin hadn't woken him up, he would probably still be dreaming.
Ye Chenyin didn't intend to explain. After a cold glance, he turned his attention to the killers.
Rong Yu beside him looked carefully to see if Yang Lin was among those people.
"Yang Lin isn't here. The one who just ran away is him." The system suddenly spoke, frightening Rong Yu so much that he trembled.
"It's good that he's not here. The dog emperor will definitely pass the blame, and I guess these people won't survive."
"Tao Yi, send all these people to the Ministry of Justice and make sure they reveal the mastermind behind this."
The dog emperor sent the person away, then hid him, and then had him work for him. He really had a good plan.
"Father, there is no need to send it to the Ministry of Justice. I can make them speak." Ye Chenyin looked at Emperor Gan calmly and spoke lightly.
"This is not a joke, you must not act recklessly." Emperor Gan said sternly.
"The Imperial Guards and the National Defense Army are all here for the Spring Hunt, and there are 5,000 soldiers stationed near the forest garden. No matter how powerful these assassins are, they can't get in quietly. They couldn't have gotten in like this without someone inside supporting them. And this person must be someone in a high position. If we send them to the Ministry of Justice, they will probably be killed to silence them or the matter will be quickly dismissed without any substantive explanation."
"I have fought with them and know they are not afraid of death."
Emperor Gan looked deeply at his son, who was a stranger to him. He really underestimated him in the past.
"Since they are not afraid of death, what can you do?" Tao Yi asked.
Ye Chenyin turned around and met the eyes that were staring at him, waiting quietly for an answer.
"I trust Fu Shiping's character. He is not someone who would bend the law for personal gain. I feel at ease sending him there."
These people must not speak here, no matter what they say, no words must be left.
"Father, the killers are like dead men. They have long disregarded life and death. Ordinary punishments cannot pry their mouths open. If my fourth brother has a way, why not let him try. It will also help us find out the truth in time and make plans early." Ye Chenyuan said.
