Chapter 375: Weeds
"Go with the flow."
Just four words, yet they contain so much information.
This not only shows that the assassination was not "directed and acted" by Li Qi, but also explains why the latter "sacrificed himself to save others."
If combined with the sentence "She will tell you when she wakes up", there is no doubt that Li Qi has successfully broken through Yu Pingjun's psychological defenses.
Looking at the Dafeng Emperor who was still hesitant and cautious three days ago, Wei Changtian suddenly had a feeling -
It seems that Li Qi has become different from before.
Wei Changtian didn't know what caused this change, and of course he wouldn't dig into the details.
He was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly and said:
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this matter was instigated by Ning Yongnian."
Wei Changtian did not use his internal force to transmit sound this time, so this sentence also floated into Li Wutong's ears.
The latter came back to his senses after hearing this, wiped his tears and hurriedly asked:
"Father, are there any survivors of those assassins?"
"No."
Shaking his head, Li Qi replied softly, "They all committed suicide before the Imperial Guards arrived."
"But Master Wei is right. We know without any trial that they are Ning Yongnian's spies."
"Ning Yongnian"
Pursing her lips, Li Wutong lowered her head slightly, and clenched her two little hands tightly.
It was obvious that she had remembered this grudge.
"Princess, go see the queen first."
On the other hand, Wei Changtian did not say anything to comfort Li Wutong at this time.
After thinking for a while, he felt that there were some things he still needed to discuss with Li Qi alone, so he found a reason to send the latter away.
"good."
Li Wutong was very obedient. After wiping away her tears, she looked at Li Qi with some worry and quickly left the hall.
At this time, Wei Changtian's expression gradually became serious.
"Your Majesty, if this matter was really arranged by Ning Yongnian, then it means..."
"I know."
Li Qi stood up slowly and interrupted with a grim look, "It means that what he is planning is of great importance."
"And I'm afraid this will happen soon."
“.”
Hmm? You got it?
Seeing Li Qi suddenly learn to "quickly answer", Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, then frowned and added: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing. This matter is most likely related to the war in Yuanzhou."
“Wonju.”
Nodding, Li Qi pondered for a while and then asked, "Master Wei, if you were asked to guess, what do you think Ning Yongnian wants to do?"
"I don't know, kid."
Wei Changtian thought to himself, "Why bother with this if I can already guess it?" He immediately shook his head and said, "The most important thing now is to wake up the queen. Then everything will be revealed."
"Oh, I know."
Li Qi sighed softly, remained silent for a moment and then changed the subject.
"By the way, Master Wei, there are still two days left until July 15th."
"I have already arranged what you want, and I can do it at any time."
"But I wonder when you plan to leave Fengyuan?"
"Your Majesty, if Fengyuan City is safe and sound after July 15th."
Wei Changtian answered truthfully: "Then I should leave soon."
"Well, where's Tong'er?"
Li Qi asked again: "Will she go with you?"
"Princess, don't leave yet."
Wei Changtian smiled and said, "Perhaps she wants to spend more time with Your Majesty."
".good."
"Then let her be."
“.”
After the last sentence was said, the hall became quiet.
Wei Changtian and Li Qi were each thinking about their own things and didn't say anything. They just turned their heads at the same time to look at the night scene outside the hall.
After all the trouble, it was already midnight.
Now, 99% of the people in Fengyuan City have evacuated outside the city, and the doors of every household in the city are closed. It is difficult to find any lights in this thousand-year-old city that was once full of lights.
All that was left was the jackdaws crying sadly on the branches.
And the dead silence that continued to permeate the night.
July 14th, early morning.
A whole day had passed since the assassination, and Yu Pingjun was still in a coma and had not woken up yet.
Regardless of whether she wakes up or not, Wei Changtian and his group, as the last group of people "staying behind" in Fengyuan City, must now temporarily withdraw from the city and wait for the arrival of the Ghost Festival on July 15th.
After all, the appearance of Bai Youheng made Yan Luo's life or death uncertain, so just in case, no one could be left in the city.
"Master Wei, Princess, everyone is here."
Outside the princess's mansion, more than ten carriages were lined up in a row, and the heavy door was slowly closed by the guards.
Everyone in the mansion had boarded the car, but apart from some particularly valuable items, they did not take anything else.
After all, I'll probably only be away for two days this time and will be back on July 16, so there's no need to make a fuss about it like I'm moving.
"Well, let's go then."
Nodding, Wei Changtian lowered the curtain and turned to look at Li Wutong, who was sitting opposite him with a worried look on her face: "Princess, what's wrong?"
"I"
Li Wutong frowned and whispered to the sound of the horses' hooves, "I suddenly feel a little depressed. I always feel that something bad is going to happen."
"Um?"
Wei Changtian was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled and said, "Once we leave, there will be no one in Fengyuan City. Even if Yan Luo is not dead, there will be no more accidents. How can there be any bad things?"
"I understand, but."
Li Wutong rubbed his forehead gently and seemed to be feeling really uncomfortable.
"But I just feel anxious for no reason, young master. Since Yan Luo has the ability to massacre a city, will he go somewhere else to cause trouble?"
"How is this possible?"
Wei Changtian continued to comfort him: "If Yan Luo wants to massacre a city, there must be many restrictions, otherwise it would not be limited to just one city the first two times."
"The fact that so many murders happened in Fengyuan City before means that he can only target this place this time, even Bai Youheng."
etc!!!
Suddenly, Wei Changtian's voice stopped abruptly.
wrong.
No, Ning Yongnian chose to go to Yuanzhou at this critical moment . Bai Youheng took a huge risk to return to Fengyuan. The Da Ning army that had been hiding in Fengxian and refused to leave. The 500,000 Da Feng elites that were all stored in Yuanzhou City . Damn it!!!
At this moment, all the clues were suddenly connected together by Li Wutong's unintentional reminder, and then pointed to a guess that Wei Changtian had never thought of before, or never dared to think of.
Ning Yongnian, wants to use the hand of Yan Luo to massacre Yuanzhou City? ! ! !
"Sir! Are you okay?"
At the side, Li Wutong's extremely worried voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
But Wei Changtian had no time to explain anything to her. The next moment, he jumped out of the carriage and rushed towards the direction of the palace.
“Young Master!!”
Behind him, Li Wutong's screams mixed with the neighing of frightened horses, and it seemed that several figures were following.
However, Wei Changtian didn't even have the desire to look back.
Hurry! Li Qi should still be in the palace now!
No matter if Yu Pingjun is awake or not! No matter if my guess is right or not! Even if it is a false alarm, the people in Yuanzhou City must evacuate before midnight!
Although these people strictly speaking have nothing to do with me, and although I have never been a good person, but these are millions of lives!! (End of this chapter)
