Although the people who went to assassinate were all Gu family's death squad, Gu Tingchen was not afraid of being suspected by Fu Mingchi, but looking at his aggressive eyes, he inexplicably felt a little guilty.
"Prince Yongning does not need to intervene in the Pacification Commissioner's Office, and you don't need to worry about Yuzhou City."
Gu Tingchen pretended to be calm and said, "Quickly lead the Yingzhou army to withdraw along the original route."
"How can that be possible?"
Fu Mingchi smiled at Ye Wanshu on the tower. "My distinguished guest is still at the Pacification Commissioner's Office. How can he leave first? Miss Ye, I'm still waiting to go to Taowu to enjoy the peach trees in spring. I wonder if our agreement still stands?"
Ye Wanshu could tell he was teasing Gu Tingchen, so she chimed in, "Remember, I'm just afraid someone won't let Your Highness have his way."
Fu Mingchi's eyes flashed: "Then you have to ask the silver spear in my hand whether it agrees."
"Fu Mingchi, I respect you as a descendant of the royal family, so I'll give you some respect. Don't be so arrogant."
Gu Tingchen's face was filled with impatience: "Do you think you can tease my wife at will?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he moved closer to Ye Wanshu, "Wanwan, come back with me immediately and prepare for tomorrow's wedding."
"Gu Tingchen, don't come over here."
Ye Wanshu stood at the edge of the city wall: "I said there is no longer any entanglement between us."
Gu Tingchen's expression grew even colder. "I never promised, Wanwan. You have no choice but to marry me."
As he spoke, he approached Ye Wanshu tentatively: "If you want to jump from here, then I will accompany you. If you live, I will live with you. If you die, I will die with you. We will be husband and wife for the rest of our lives."
Fu Mingchi shook his head as he watched: "The Censor's face would be quite suitable for filling the walls of the Pacification Commissioner's Office."
Standing on the top of the wall, she could only feel the howling of the wind all around her. If she took a wrong step, she would be crushed to pieces. However, Ye Wanshu was not afraid at all at this moment. Instead, she was amused by Fu Mingchi's words.
"He is the young master of the Duke of Rong's Mansion and the Imperial Censor of the court. Your Highness is so disrespectful to him, aren't you afraid of him?" Ye Wanshu asked jokingly.
"I'm afraid." Fu Mingchi smiled faintly at her and said, "I'm afraid he might have bad intentions towards Miss Ye."
Ye Wanshu felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart when she heard this. She didn't know why, even though she knew that Fu Mingchi, that bastard, approached her with ulterior motives, every time she saw him, she wanted to tease him from the bottom of her heart, and she was also happy from the bottom of her heart.
Glancing down at the roughly three-meter-high city wall, Ye Wanshu shouted, "Fu Mingchi, I want to leave the Pacification Commissioner's Office. Please catch me."
Fu Mingchi's heart moved slightly: "Miss Ye, can you trust me?"
"Of course." Ye Wanshu smiled.
Fu Mingchi nodded: "As long as the king is here, Miss Ye will be here."
Seeing that His Highness was about to jump from his horse to the city wall, Zhu Wencai and several of his personal guards were all worried.
His Highness was already wounded by an arrow, and if he tried to save Miss Ye, he would probably have to sacrifice half his life.
But the situation is so urgent right now that no one dares to dissuade them, and everyone is on high alert.
On the city wall, Gu Tingchen had already noticed something was wrong and was about to rush over to stop her, but he saw Ye Wanshu had already jumped and fell towards the city wall without hesitation.
Perhaps it was a momentary impulse, or perhaps she was really tired of being harassed by Gu Tingchen, but when she saw Fu Mingchi leading the army to the Pacification Commissioner's Office, her heart became more determined than ever.
She had chosen the right knife.
She closed her eyes and felt the violent heartbeat as death approached her again. Suddenly, a pair of warm hands hugged her waist. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Fu Mingchi had caught her steadily.
The two looked at each other quietly and slowly fell to the ground. At this moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.
Ye Wanshu's watery eyes kept flashing as she looked at the beautiful face in front of her. Her starry eyes seemed to crush the Milky Way as they moved around. When the tails of her eyes were slightly raised, she had a sense of nobility that made people feel confused and infatuated.
How can this dog be so good-looking?
Ye Wanshu couldn't help but sigh silently.
"Does it look good?" Fu Mingchi raised the corners of his lips slightly, as if teasing.
"Yeah." Ye Wanshu couldn't help but respond.
Feeling her toes lightly touch the ground, she immediately realized that she had been a bit frivolous. She quickly stood firm and teased with a smile: "Your Highness seems to have become much whiter and tenderer after going out."
It's so white that it seems a little abnormal.
Fu Mingchi suppressed the sweet taste rising in his throat and asked casually, "Where do you want to go, Miss Ye?"
Ye Wanshu secretly glanced at the top of the city wall and saw Gu Tingchen looking down with a sullen face. She deliberately poked Fu Mingchi in the chest and said, "As long as it's not the Pacification Commissioner's Office, anywhere will do."
Fu Mingchi also looked at the top of the city wall and said: "If there is something that the young lady does not like, there is no need to accommodate her. In the territory of Yuezhou, you can do whatever you want. This king will protect you."
Gu Tingchen was so angry that his lips trembled. He took out an arrow and shot it straight at Fu Mingchi.
Seeing the sharp arrows coming from the top of the city, Zhu Wencai was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He threw out a long spear and cut the flying feather arrow into two pieces.
Fu Mingchi calmly pulled Ye Wanshu towards the center of the military formation.
Gu Tingchen's fists clenched loudly. Just as he picked up the second arrow and was about to draw his bow, Zhu Wencai immediately shouted upwards, "Young Master Gu, could it be that you are inspecting Yuezhou on behalf of the Queen Mother and His Majesty, just to murder my Highness? You are so blatant, you don't even consider our Yuezhou army as human beings."
After saying that, he led the soldiers to escort his highness and Ye Wanshu into the carriage.
Seeing his cousin getting on the carriage from the Yongning Palace and gradually disappearing into the night, Gu Tingchen could no longer tolerate it and shouted at Liu Zhang, "What are you standing there for? Gather your men and horses and go out of the city to bring back your cousin."
