"Seventh Boss."
"Hey? You still recognize me as your former big brother? Then get out of the way."
"That won't work. His Highness has instructed that your safety must be guaranteed."
"Are the secret guards in Prince Sheng's Palace so idle now? Why are they protecting me?"
After Ling Junyan left, Yun Qi still fell asleep and slept until night. When he woke up, he found that he could not get out.
Yun Qi pretended to be relaxed and said, "If there is anyone who can threaten me, you can't beat him, right?"
The guards admitted that Yunqi was indeed the most powerful among them, but they were outnumbered.
So I still didn't give way.
Yun Qi was not that conceited. He just thought about it and realized that Ling Junyan was just being stubborn. He definitely didn't know before he said it. In other words, his method was likely to work, so these secret guards were just causing trouble.
So just as he was about to use his eloquence to persuade these secret guards, he saw Uncle Xiao coming from a distance holding a lamp.
"Everyone, please step back."
After Uncle Xiao finished speaking, the secret guards withdrew.
It was the first time that Yunqi realized that Uncle Xiao’s words were so effective.
He clasped his fists cheerfully and said, "Thank you, Uncle Xiao."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Uncle Xiao stopped him: "Don't you want to leave? His Highness has already agreed. Go pack your things quickly, and I'll take you away later."
Yun Qi's body stiffened and he turned slowly. He hadn't reacted yet until the words rolled back and forth in his mind several times before he understood. He said in disbelief, "What did he say? I didn't say I was leaving."
"Weren't you the one who was making a fuss about leaving earlier?"
"That was before."
"But Prince Sheng's Mansion won't keep you now!"
Uncle Xiao used to be very amiable, but now he is acting out of character, just because of that sentence: I must send him away tonight no matter what.
Yun Qi exhaled, looked away and nodded, "Okay, let's go. Where's Ling Junyan? Let him come out."
"Your Highness is busy."
"Busy? He's probably not here right now."
Yun Qi was right, but Uncle Xiao didn't admit it. However, it didn't matter whether he admitted it or not.
Yun Qi said, "Tell him that he likes to hide everything. If he regrets it later, I, Yun Qi, will not accompany him. We don't want to see each other again."
Without waiting for Uncle Xiao to reply, he took the initiative to return to his room, took a quick look around, and took a short dagger. When he walked out of the palace gate, he saw the carriage prepared by Uncle Xiao next to him. Without saying a word, he jumped on the horse, pulled out the dagger and cut the rope connecting the horse and the carriage.
Ride away.
When Uncle Xiao came out, only the car was left.
"Oh no!" Uncle Xiao slapped his thigh, realizing that he might have spoken too harshly. He looked at the deserted street with a bitter face and regretted it, "What should I do..."
In Mutian City, the restrictions are relaxed only one night out of every seven days, making it like a night market. However, there is a curfew in the city tonight and no one is on the streets.
Yunqi rode past on horseback, alarming the patrolling Silver Guards.
The leader of the Silver Guards shouted, "Who is it?"
"Yun Qi" ignored him.
One of the silver-clad guards took out a bow and arrow, but instead of firing a warning arrow, he aimed it directly at the figure on the horse.
With a "whoosh" sound, the sharp arrow cut through the sky and hit the person on the back.
The Silver Guard rushed forward to check, turned the man over and saw his face, and was shocked.
"This...is this Yunqi?"
At this time, the archer was hidden among the silver-clad guards. He looked down at the person lying on the ground with a calm face and said, "No one should break curfew."
"But you didn't..."
"Is it too late to say this now?" The man looked around at everyone with a sinister look, "If His Majesty the Seventh Prince knew about this, we'd all be finished!"
"So what should we do now?" Finally, someone couldn't stand the intimidation and asked.
Hearing this, the man looked at the body on the ground again and said, "Of course, we should destroy the body and cover up all traces."
So when Ling Junyan arrived, only ashes were left...
