Chapter 476 Male Host Setting
After resting for a while, Pei Chuyan carefully checked the carriage again, and the group began to move forward.
The people in the carriage were also busy and started a heated discussion.
"Jinyu, do you think this could be someone the Queen left behind?"
Jinyu shook her head: "I don't think so. After all, Cheng doesn't have many people he can use. It would be difficult to keep some assassins."
"I suspect it was the work of Concubine De."
"What you said makes sense," Jin Xin nodded, "When Concubine De was alive, she had great influence in the palace, so she must have left behind many people."
"Plus, she has been in charge of the six palaces for so many years."
"Maybe he is Prime Minister Cui's man!"
The carriage soon arrived at a nearby post station. Jinxin and a few others were busy packing their bags, while Pei Chuyan stood alone outside the post station, seemingly looking towards the capital.
It seems that he is thinking about something.
Lu Xingwan also stood at the door and looked at Pei Chuyan.
[Looks like a lonely figure from behind. 】
[It is also a very standard male protagonist setting. Wow, starting from Pei Chuyan's perspective, a storybook can be written very well. 】
【Let Shen Ping write it! 】
Finally, after looking for a long time, Pei Chuyan turned around and went back to his room.
Soon, he came out with a letter in his hand: "Lin Ji!"
Pei Chuyan said this and handed the letter to Lin Ji: "This letter must be delivered to your majesty."
"Take a few people and bring that person to His Majesty."
While the Queen is not in the palace, this may be a good opportunity for His Majesty to get to the bottom of this matter.
He even suspected the Fifth Prince. After all, the people left behind by Prime Minister Cui were all in Changqiu Palace, at least that was the case on the surface.
Either the fifth prince or the sixth princess.
But in comparison, the Sixth Princess doesn't seem like someone who can plan things.
This matter must be reported to the Queen in the future. The skills of these secret guards around her are indeed amazing, even better than Yingyi of the Dragon Shadow Guard.
Thinking of this, Pei Chuyan gave a few more instructions: "Don't bring our secret guards, pick six people from the guards sent by His Majesty."
"Prince, I'll go right away." Lin Ji has been with Pei Chuyan for a long time. He is now a man of few words, but still as fierce and powerful as ever.
Seeing that Pei Chuyan had no other instructions, he turned around and left to deal with the assassin's affairs.
"Princess, it's time to eat!" Jinxin finished cleaning and prepared lunch for everyone.
Then he shouted in the direction of Pei Chuyan: "Prince Pei, it's time for dinner!"
Pei Chuyan's train of thought was suddenly interrupted. He turned around, smiled, nodded, and walked over here.
At the dinner table, Pei Chuyan still expressed his decision.
"I think everyone must have been frightened by what happened today. After thinking it over again and again, I decided to take a two-day break."
"We have already sent people to investigate the area, and it is completely safe."
"The assassin will be escorted back to the capital by the people around me. The Dragon Shadow Guard will naturally take over this matter and give the princess an explanation."
When he said the last sentence, Pei Chuyan was looking in the direction of Lu Xingwan.
"Okay!" Seeing Pei Chuyan looking at him, Lu Xingwan nodded quickly, thinking that he was asking for his opinion.
This made Qiong Hua at the side couldn't help but laugh: "Now our Wanwan has become more mature."
Several people started laughing.
Pei Chuyan continued: "But for the sake of safety, you cannot leave this post station in the next few days."
"Don't worry!" Qiong Hua patted Pei Chuyan on the shoulder, his face full of cheerfulness and heroism.
Her action made several people stunned.
Although Pei Chuyan has always been by the Empress' side, he is usually considered to be an approachable person.
But most of the time he always has a sullen face and doesn't even talk much.
So Rao was very familiar with him, and Jinxin and Jinyu and the others would rarely make fun of him.
[After all, it has to be my sister Qionghua, she is so brave! ]
[Sisters Jinxin and Jinyu have always kept their distance from Pei Chuyan. Now let's see if everything is alright? ]
"In that case, I will arrange our new route to avoid dangerous places."
Jin Xin hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke: "Prince Pei, I wonder... can I go buy some food? Prince, can you find someone to accompany me?"
"Everyone has been traveling all the way these days, it's really hard work. Now that I have some free time, I will prepare some food for everyone."
Pei Chuyan thought for a moment and then said, "Miss Jinxin, just tell me when you want to leave, and I'll send someone to accompany you."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Lu Xingwan who was very interested beside him: "Princess can't go."
Lu Xingwan's smile collapsed instantly.
Qiong Hua stepped forward and held Lu Xingwan in his arms: "Didn't you say that our Wanwan is the most obedient?"
"Okay..." Lu Xingwan agreed reluctantly.
[In order to protect everyone's lives, I still have to ensure my own safety. ]
[If something happens to me, my father might get mad and kill everyone.]
Two days later, Lin Ji and his party had already set out.
Lu Xingwan and her group also changed their route under Pei Chuyan's command. Although it might be a little slower, now
Safety is the most important thing.
【I’m really grateful to Pei Chuyan for the help along the way. 】
Jin Xin and Jin Yu looked at Pei Chuyan and couldn't help but exclaim in praise: "Prince Pei is so resourceful at such a young age. It's really admirable."
"More than that! Look at Master Pei's figure. He is also a skilled martial artist and has a good family background. I wonder which young lady will be worthy of such a good man in the future."
[I feel like this topic is very familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere before.]
[Did my mother talk about this with someone before? ]
[However, this time, it was thanks to Pei Chuyan that we were able to have a safe journey. ]
Qiong Hua also smiled and joked: "Why, is he better than your Crown Prince?"
Jinxin stammered, "That's different."
"What's the difference?"
Several people were chatting with each other, and there was laughter all around.
Song Qingyan was not idle either. Perhaps because she had a good rest last night, or perhaps because she was worried about something, she woke up early.
When she woke up, the soldiers outside were busy gathering for morning martial arts training.
Song Zhuo naturally strode over here from his tent.
"General, we have captured the people. What should we do next?"
Song Qingyan smiled and said, "You have indeed grown up now, and your work efficiency has become faster and faster."
Song Zhuo's face flashed with a trace of bitterness: "It's a pity that they grew up too late. Those people..."
Seeing him like this, Song Qingyan's expression became much more serious, and she said, "Whether you are leading troops in battle or serving as an official, the most taboo thing is to attribute other people's mistakes to your own faults."
"The people of Da Chu were massacred. It was the fault of Yuefeng State, Jin Jing, and Helian Hengxin, but it was definitely not your fault."
