Chapter 154: The Self-Torture Strategy
Li Mingsheng!
Qian Xinglong's face turned ugly.
Li Mingsheng was Li Mao's nephew. Why was he wearing a nightgown and was killed here?
No wonder Madam Xu insisted that Prince Luo wanted to kill them.
When Lin Mo saw the man in black lying on the ground with his neck broken by Xu Wuyan, she immediately understood his purpose.
Put the blame on someone else!
It was made public that Prince Luo wanted to kill him, the outdated Prince of Anping!
Under pressure from public opinion, Prince Luo would never dare to do anything to him openly, and he even had to ensure his safety.
But no one knows what he will do secretly after leaving Baoan City.
In that case, how could she not add fuel to the fire?
"Sir, you should know him, right?" Lin Mo said coldly:
"This person was the one who followed the steward of Prince Luo's Mansion that you mentioned.
Hehe, he and the men in black came together to assassinate my man, and he killed him on the spot. What does this prove? Do I need to say it directly?
The people watching the excitement all around started to talk about it:
"Do we even need to guess? It proves that King Luo sent someone to kill him."
"Yes, I recognize him. He's from Prince Luo's Mansion, a carriage driver. Tsk tsk, this guy used to be so arrogant because he drove a carriage for Prince Luo's Mansion. He looked down on everyone. I didn't expect him to be killed."
"The most pitiful one is the Prince of Anping. He was stabbed with a sword. I don't know if he can survive."
…
Qian Xinglong's face turned pale and blue:
"He's just a servant. He can't represent the prince. Don't talk nonsense and ruin the prince's reputation."
"Haha, do you think I'm stupid?" Lin Mo sneered:
"Without his permission, how dare this person come and kill my man?"
Seeing Qian Xinglong speechless, Lin Mo shook his head with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes:
"Shouldn't Prince Luo's Mansion give me an explanation for this matter?
If you don't explain, even if I risk being beheaded, I will rush back to the capital and ask the emperor for justice."
Qian Xinglong's body stiffened, then he frowned and gritted his teeth:
"Don't worry, Prince Luo will definitely give you an explanation.
But now, I have to go see Xu Wuyan and confirm his condition.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to go back and explain to the prince.”
Lin Mo didn't say anything this time, but just made way.
Qian Xinglong gave her a cold look and strode towards the carriage in front.
When he approached, the women from the Xu family were staring at him.
Qian Xinglong naturally didn't take it to heart. He didn't even glance at it and looked straight at the carriage.
At this time, Xu Wuyan was lying unconscious on the carriage.
A beautiful woman next to him was slowly stitching up his wound with needle and thread.
The wound was bleeding profusely and the clothes under him were soaked with blood. The scene was extremely scary.
Murong looked up, with a half-smile:
"Does it look good?"
Qian Xinglong looked up at the charming woman, then turned and left.
The wound was indeed deep.
If the wound is not sutured, it may not heal.
Murong glanced at Qian Xinglong's departing figure, lowered his head and continued to sew, while speaking:
"Xu Ping'an, take the money and go to the pharmacy to get the medicine immediately.
I'll tell you the prescription, remember it!"
…
Qian Xinglong, who was in front, looked back again and frowned.
But he said nothing and continued walking forward.
As he passed by Lin Mo, Lin Mo spoke coldly:
"Aren't you going to take him to see King Luo?
Why did you leave?
Wait a moment, until his wounds are treated, then have your men carry him to see King Luo and ask him to give him justice."
Qian Xinglong's expression was not very good:
"Xu Wuyan is seriously injured and can't move around at all.
The prince is not a cold-blooded and heartless person. How could he force him to come and see him when he is so injured?
Besides, the prince wanted to see him only because he was the son of an old friend.
Tell him to take good care of his injuries. If he needs any medicinal herbs, send someone to Prince Luo's mansion to let him know."
Speaking of this, Qian Xinglong's face darkened:
"Don't worry, the prince will give you a satisfactory explanation for the assassination."
After saying that, he took the horse from his men, jumped on it in a handsome manner, and rode away quickly.
This is just a stopgap measure.
Xu Wuyan was assassinated in public. This is an established fact and cannot be changed.
If we make a big fuss now, it will not benefit anyone.
The people will question the prince's character, and the prince definitely doesn't want to see this scene.
I can only calm him down first and then make plans.
Xu Wuyan’s woman…is not easy to mess with either.
He was rarely left without an answer when asked questions, and it was true that birds of a feather flock together.
Lin Mo stared at Qian Xinglong's departing back with cold eyes, and only ran towards the carriage after he disappeared.
You say you didn't put yourself in danger, who are you trying to fool?
I really want to reach out and strangle him to death.
When she arrived, Murong was just cutting the thread, and the carriage was filled with a strong smell of blood.
"Murong, what happened to him?" Lin Mo's face looked ugly.
"He won't die for the time being, but he still needs to be observed." Murong jumped off the carriage and asked someone to pour him some water to wash his hands.
"He was injured in a vital part and lost too much blood. Tonight is critical, and we need to send someone to watch over him.
In addition, he cannot be injured again before his injury heals. If he is injured again, even the Great Luo Immortal cannot save him."
Lin Mo nodded.
At this time, Lao Wei came over, glanced at the direction of the carriage, and lowered his voice:
"It's not advisable to stay here for long. Let's get out of the city first."
Who knows if King Luo will send someone again?
Now that they are out of the city, at least they still have another chance to survive. If they want to escape, King Luo's men won't be able to catch them easily.
Lin Mo nodded, "Leave the city, quickly!"
When the Xu family escorted the carriage out of the city, Liu Ying, with a pale face, grabbed Lin Mo's hand:
"Momo, Wuyan will be fine, right?"
"Well, mother, don't worry, he is a nuisance and he won't die." Lin Mo nodded:
"Haven't you heard of the saying that evil lasts for a thousand years? He is a great evil."
Liu Ying was stunned. "Child, who would say that about their husband?"
"Are you feeling a little more relaxed?" Lin Mo forced a smile.
Liu Ying nodded. After being interrupted by her, she did feel a little more relaxed.
Old Wei beside her looked at her in surprise, "Are you in a good mood? Can you even smile?"
"Don't laugh, cry?" Lin Mo shook his head:
"Life must go on. It's a day of laughter, and a day of tears.
Compared to crying and laughing, it is better to live life with laughter."
Lao Wei sighed, not understanding her thoughts, but he couldn't help but look at her seriously:
"Prince Luo is not an easy person to get along with. I'm afraid they will still come to cause trouble for you."
Lin Mo smiled bitterly. "So, Master Wei, how about we continue on our journey? Leave this dangerous place?"
She really wanted to say that if she didn't leave tonight, she might not be able to leave in the next few days.
But even if she said it, I guess Old Wei wouldn't believe it.
Old Wei, “…”
If he did that, the others would probably tear him to pieces.
Shake your head:
“You think of something else.
As soon as they arrived at the post station, they left. Even a dumb person would have guessed that there was something fishy going on.
If you find something wrong, just chase us and kill us. You can blame me for not helping you."
King Luo, you are the local tyrant in this area. Anyone who messes with you will die.
Lin Mo chuckled. It was hard for Old Wei to just kill people indiscriminately.
She nodded at him seriously:
"Okay, I understand, Master Wei, thank you!"
At least now Master Wei really wants to help them.
"Don't thank me, I can't afford the consequences of your thanks. Your thanks are life-threatening." Old Wei said in a rough voice:
"Hurry up, don't drag your feet, do you hear me?"
Looking at Old Wei who was walking ahead, Lin Mo smiled.
Is Lao Wei shy?
At this time, in the Prince Luo's Mansion.
When Li Mao saw the body of his nephew Li Mingsheng, he almost suffocated to death.
"Mingsheng." Li Mao knelt down and touched Li Mingsheng's body with shaking hands.
When he found out that he had died from a broken neck, he looked at Qian Xinglong angrily:
"General Qian, what's going on?
Didn't you lead people to capture Xu Wuyan? Why didn't you bring him back, but instead brought back my nephew's body?
Tell me, who killed my nephew? I want to kill him to avenge my nephew! "
Qian Xinglong had a cold face. Although he was unhappy with the butler's attitude towards him, he could only swallow it.
After all, the other party is a favorite of King Luo.
Qian Xinglong didn't hesitate and told what had happened.
Then he said in a more serious tone:
"Tell me the truth, Steward Li, did you send anyone to kill Xu Wuyan?"
Li Mao was furious, "Am I stupid?
Sending someone to kill Xu Wuyan at this time would cause trouble for the prince.
And with my nephew's mediocre martial arts skills, I must be a fool to let him kill someone."
"It's hard to say." Qian Xinglong shook his head.
"You suffered a great loss at his hands, so it's not impossible that you sent someone to kill him to vent your anger.
And your nephew most likely just went along to watch.
After all, you've done this kind of thing many times before."
Li Mao was so angry that he gritted his teeth:
"Qian Xinglong, I said I didn't do it. Did you hear me clearly?"
Seeing that Qian Xinglong still wanted to speak, he simply roared:
"Qian Xinglong, who are you after all?
You're on their side, speaking for them, so can I also suspect you're colluding with them?"
Seeing Qian Xinglong's face darken, Li Mao twisted his face:
"I just said that because I was angry.
Qian Xinglong, I suspect this is a plot set up by Xu Wuyan and the others, their purpose is to avoid seeing the prince. Yes, that's definitely the case."
Qian Xinglong shook his head, "Probably not.
The sword pierced so deeply that even medicine couldn't stop the bleeding."
"Humph, maybe they are just playing a trick of inflicting pain on one's self." Li Mao snorted coldly:
"The Xu family is very cunning and treacherous."
Qian Xinglong didn't say anything. He didn't think so anyway.
At this moment, he saw King Luo coming towards him and quickly bowed his head:
"Your Majesty!"
