Chapter 1942 Weird Atmosphere
She hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Your Majesty, actually, I, I also have something that I am hiding from you—"
She was just halfway through her words when she was interrupted by the sound of a door being pushed open.
Turning around, they saw Ye Zheng walking in hurriedly from outside. The two people in the room were startled by him and opened their eyes wide.
"emperor--"
As soon as Ye Zheng walked in and was about to say something, he looked up and met the gazes of two people.
And Zhu Feng's half-dressed clothes.
Suddenly I was stunned: "What's wrong?"
“…”
"Did I interrupt anything?"
Zhu Feng rolled his eyes at him before saying, "What's the matter?"
Ye Zheng hurriedly saluted him and said, "Your Majesty, I've just tortured him and found out that the assassin is a remnant of the Thermidor Crescent, the uncle of the head Boss Wu Lun, Quincy."
"Is it him?"
"Yes. He himself said nothing, not even under torture, but the rabble he brought with him confessed everything after a few lashes."
“…”
"After Hot Moon Crescent was annihilated, Quincy and Wu Taisui, both of them, fled with their men and followed the military advisor."
"Follow the military advisor..."
Zhu Feng remembered that after they cleared out the Retsuwan Regiment, the Jinyiwei came to report that at least two groups of people had escaped. Now it seemed that it was Quincy and Wu Taisui who led the two groups of people and followed the military advisor.
He said, "Didn't they leave already?"
"He was originally going to follow the military advisor, but Wu Lun died. This Quincy was so angry that he wanted to stay and avenge his nephew."
“…”
"That military advisor gave him this idea, telling him to ambush near Shazhouwei and observe our movements. Later, when we arrived at Bailong City, they followed us all the way. When they discovered we had entered the Lotus Heart Guild Hall, they followed us in under the pretext of delivering tung oil to merchants in the city, and planned to attack us tonight."
Zhu Feng frowned slightly.
It seems that even though the matter of Thermidor Bay was exposed, the military advisor was still trying to find ways to make trouble for himself.
This person and the forces behind him are not simple.
Zhu Feng thought for a moment, then said, "Where are the people?"
Ye Zheng said, "He has almost vomited out everything he needed to. He is now locked up and awaiting his fate."
Zhu Feng said, "There's no need to wait. Tomorrow morning, have Ying Shao send someone to escort them back. Just register a case with Shazhou Guard, then send them back to the capital and hand them over to the Ministry of Justice for handling."
"yes."
After saying this, Ye Zheng looked at Zhu Feng's arm and asked softly, "Your Majesty, your injury—"
Xue Yun was standing by and was about to say something when Zhu Feng immediately said, "It's just a superficial wound."
Ye Zheng naturally didn't believe him.
Zhu Feng never paid much attention to his injuries, so he looked at Xue Yun: "Really?"
“…”
Xue Yun hesitated for a moment.
She was treating the wound from the poisoning because she didn't want to make Zhu Feng worry. After all, she could handle it herself. But now that the matter has been resolved, Zhu Feng didn't tell Ye Zheng.
It seems that he doesn't want to cause trouble.
She could only follow Zhu Feng's lead and say, "Yes, it's just a superficial wound."
Ye Zheng looked at her, then at Zhu Feng.
Although he knew that Zhu Feng had always looked down on Xue Yun, for some reason, after the chaos just now and the two of them being alone together for a while, there seemed to be an indescribable, strange atmosphere.
