Han Yiyi was unaware of Chu Yun's thoughts at that moment. Seeing Yun Xiao looking behind her, she turned around as well. However, when she saw Chu Yun's indescribable expression, she couldn't help but frown slightly.
Thinking that he didn't want to carry Yun Xiao onto the carriage, she thought to herself, "Wasn't he carrying her quite smoothly just now? Why is he making this face now?" So she couldn't help but speak up.
"Um, Chu Yun, right? His wound makes it difficult for him to move around, so could you please help me carry him to the carriage...!"
“Yes, Princess…”
When Chu Yun heard Han Yiyi ask for his help, he suddenly came to his senses and quickly responded before Han Yiyi could finish speaking.
When Han Yiyi saw him step forward, she worried that he would have trouble holding Yun Xiao while carrying the medicine, so she took the medicine from his hand.
Actually, the reason Yun Xiao asked Chu Yun to carry him onto the carriage was because he was worried that if his wound bled again, Han Yiyi would really sew it up for him. However, upon hearing the words in his ear, he regretted it.
At that moment, he would rather have Han Yiyi sew him up with a needle.
Originally, Chu Yun was holding him in his arms and walking towards the carriage when he suddenly said to him, "Although you are gentle and refined, I am not interested in male lovers. You should choose someone else!"
When Yun Xiao heard the words beside him, he thought he had misheard. But when he looked at the person holding him and the indescribable expression on their face, he realized he hadn't misheard. He couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, I don't like homosexuals either!"
Because he shouted too hard, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his chest, causing him to gasp for breath.
Seeing Yun Xiao's angry expression, Chu Yun realized that he might have misunderstood and quickly spoke up.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, it was a misunderstanding on my part. Please don't be angry. Be careful that the wound doesn't bleed again, or the princess might have to sew it up for you!"
Yun Xiao thought to himself, "...You fucking know that, yet you're still here saying I'm gay."
The carriage was filled with thick bedding, and it traveled very slowly along the way. Perhaps it was due to the hemostatic medicine, but Yun Xiao's wound stopped bleeding during the journey.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the princess's residence, this time without Han Yiyi having to speak, Chu Yun took the initiative to lift Yun Xiao down from the carriage and escort her into the princess's residence.
Worried about the safety of Han Yiyi and Yun Xiao, the two children came directly to the princess's residence to wait, and Nangong Ling and his wife naturally followed along.
When the two children saw Han Yiyi return, they rushed to her side.
"Mother, are you alright? Are you hurt? And Master, I saw that he was bleeding a lot. How is he?"
Seeing the two children's anxious and worried expressions, Han Yiyi quickly reached out and patted their heads before speaking.
"Mother is fine and not injured, so you don't need to worry. As for the master, he has already seen the doctor, who said that he will recover after a few days of rest, so you don't need to worry!"
"Mother, I must learn kung fu well and grow up quickly so that I can protect you and prevent anyone from hurting you!"
"Yes, we will definitely work harder in the future and eat more food so that we can grow up faster and protect our mother."
Hearing the two children's childish words, Han Yiyi smiled and said, "Okay, then you two eat well and grow up quickly."
On the other side, Emperor Beichen was so shocked upon hearing that Han Yiyi had been assassinated that he almost fell off his dragon throne and hurriedly asked.
"Is the princess injured?"
"Your Majesty, the princess is not injured. It was Yun Xiao who stood in front of the princess and took a knife for her. The dagger pierced Yun Xiao's body, so he did not harm the princess!"
Upon hearing Chu Yun's words, Emperor Beichen's expression changed.
"You mean, if Yun Xiao hadn't blocked that knife for the princess, the dagger would have been stuck in her body?"
"Your Majesty, at that time..."
"Useless things! I sent you to protect the princess, and this is how you protect her. Go and collect your own ten zhang (a unit of distance), and then take your men and get to the princess's residence. Protect the princess every step of the way. If something like this happens again, you may all end your own lives. You don't need to come to see me again!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Has the murderer been caught?"
"Your Majesty, he has been caught and has been imprisoned!"
"Bring the person here. I want to interrogate them myself. I want to see who has the audacity to assassinate the princess!"
When Emperor Beichen saw the scholarly-looking man in front of him, he couldn't help but frown!
"This, this is the murderer you caught?"
"Your Majesty! This person was caught red-handed!"
Actually, it's no wonder that Emperor Beichen didn't believe it. The person in front of him was the murderer who wanted to kill Han Yiyi. In fact, no matter how you looked at him, he was just a scholar who couldn't even kill a chicken. That's why Chu Yun didn't react immediately when he saw this person approaching Han Yiyi on the street.
The person in front of me still had his mouth stuffed with a rag. This was because he had been cursing Han Yiyi in prison, calling her heartless and vicious, which was why the prison warden had stuffed the rag into his mouth.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Beichen waved his hand and ordered someone to remove the rag from the man's mouth.
"So you're the one who wants to assassinate Princess Changning? Don't you know that assassinating a royal princess is punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your family?"
"Yes, it was me. That's because she's heartless and cruel, and treats human life like dirt. She's unworthy of being a princess and deserves to die. Does that mean that just because she's a princess, she can kill without paying for it? Does that mean that just because she's a princess, Your Majesty will protect her?"
Upon hearing the "passionate" words of the person in front of him, Emperor Beichen couldn't help but glance at the tattered cloth that had been thrown aside. He thought to himself, "Is it too late to stuff it back into this guy's mouth now?"
However, as the ruler of a country, he naturally wanted to find out the truth when his people were wronged. Moreover, based on his understanding of Han Yiyi, although Han Yiyi was a little greedy, he was very kind at heart. Otherwise, he would not have taken the initiative to produce sweet potatoes so that the people would not go hungry. He thought there must be a misunderstanding here, so he asked.
"You keep saying that the princess disregards human life, but whose life did she disregard? What evidence do you have?"
“I don’t need evidence. Manjushri told me personally before he died that the princess killed her and that I must avenge her! Manjushri would never lie to me.”
Upon hearing the words of the person in front of him, Emperor Beichen thought to himself, "Where did this idiot come from?" But he still patiently asked.
"Who are you? And who is this Manjushri? What is your relationship with this Manjushri?"
