"Yun Qianmeng, stop slandering me here! When did I ever seek revenge? Today, His Royal Highness Prince Chen has been ordered to search Kyoto, and no household shall be spared! I am only following orders. If the assassin is caught, he will be immediately taken to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation! As the daughter of an official, you not only refuse to cooperate with His Majesty's decree, but also try to stop it and slander me. Is there any unspeakable secret hidden in Miss Yun's boudoir?" Su Yuan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he rushed towards Yun Qianmeng with a sharp sword. There was murderous intent in his eyes, and even his body emanated a murderous aura, which scared the maids and servants so much that they retreated frequently, and only relaxed a little after retreating behind Yun Qianmeng!
Yun Qianmeng, however, had a sneer on her face and sarcasm in her eyes as she watched Su Yuan showing off his power in her yard. She was already furious in her heart, but the more she was at this moment, the more she could not be provoked by the other party. Instead, she remained calm, which surprised the soldiers who thought that the daughter of the prime minister's mansion was as intimidating as other daughters in the government office. Apart from the old ladies and old ladies in the government office who had experienced big scenes and ups and downs and had such ability to remain calm in times of crisis, this daughter of the prime minister's mansion was the first one who was not afraid of Lord Su!
"Lord Su is very eloquent. He dares to make such a judgment in public without any real evidence. How can he be worthy of the position of Minister of Justice with such arbitrary judgment? Moreover, it is His Royal Highness Prince Chen who has received the imperial edict today. Lord Su is only assisting His Royal Highness Prince Chen in his work. May I ask, Lord Su, as a civil servant, what is the meaning of holding a sharp knife in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion? Are you taking advantage of the fact that Prime Minister Yun is not in the mansion at the moment to bully a group of weak female relatives? Does Lord Su act like this in other government offices? I want to see how Lord Su shows off his power in other princely and marquisate mansions?" Yun Qianmeng's voice suddenly turned cold, and then he uttered a series of rhetorical questions in rapid succession!
However, contrary to her extremely cold tone, Yun Qianmeng's face was as gloomy as water, without a trace of emotion on her face!
Su Yuan had long witnessed Yun Qianmeng's eloquence, so he wasn't as angry and out of control as before. Instead, he stared at the attic behind Yun Qianmeng with a cold look, then sneered, "Miss Yun, why are you wasting everyone's time here! If you have no guilt in your heart, you can let us go into the inner room and search it. Then all the truth will be revealed!"
As he spoke, Su Yuan raised his right hand and gestured. The soldiers standing behind him immediately raised their lanterns, preparing to charge into Qiluo Garden...
"Stop!" Yun Qianmeng shouted, and she took a step forward, narrowing her eyes and staring at Su Yuan's face, which looked like a smug but pretending to be righteous. She felt sick in her heart!
However, those soldiers were frightened by Yun Qianmeng's aura. They looked at each other in confusion for a moment, not knowing whether to continue to charge into Qiluo Garden or stop there!
After all, when they were in Beppu just now, they just looked inside the courtyards of the young ladies as a routine, but did not go in to disturb them!
At this time, Lord Su strictly ordered them to enter the boudoir of the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If the Prime Minister or the Prince of the State knew about this, I don't know how they would be blamed!
Therefore, after Yun Qianmeng's loud shout, everyone stopped and watched the confrontation between the two groups with a wait-and-see attitude before making a decision!
Seeing that Yun Qianmeng was still as calm as if facing a catastrophe, Su Yuan was already furious. He kicked a soldier beside him and cursed, "Useless things, you are afraid of a weak little girl. Do you want me to teach you what to do? If you let the assassin escape, not only will you lose your heads, but your entire clan will be buried with you..."
The soldier staggered after being kicked by Su Yuan, and rushed forward without balance. He was about to hit Yun Qianmeng who was not far ahead, but Yuan Dong, who was standing behind Yun Qianmeng, dodged and stretched out his hands to touch the soldier's shoulders. His subordinate Zheng Yi twisted the soldier slightly with force, and Yuan Dong turned the soldier's face around, and the whole person immediately rushed towards Su Yuan again!
Upon seeing this, Su Yuan immediately retreated to the other side. The soldier had no resistance and fell to the ground. He looked very embarrassed, which made the maids and servants in Qiluo Garden laugh secretly!
The soldier got up with a red face. Seeing Su Yuan glance at him fiercely, his heart suddenly tightened. He quickly lowered his head and stood back in the team!
"Lord Su, if you want to beat or scold my subordinates, you don't have to do it in my Qiluo Garden. I don't have the time to watch you showing off your power. If you have nothing to do, please leave immediately!" Yun Qianmeng saw Su Yuan constantly relying on King Chen's power to bully others, and he felt fed up with it. His tone became colder!
"Miss Yun, why are you in such a hurry? My duty has not been completed yet. How can I retreat so easily? Please step aside, Miss Yun, to avoid getting bumped into and blamed by others!" As he said that, Su Yuan snatched the lantern from the guard beside him and tried to force his way past everyone in Qiluo Garden and enter the attic!
Although those maids and servants were afraid of the guards, their young lady's reputation was at stake at this moment. They would die anyway, so they might as well try their best to protect her reputation. Even if they died, they believed that the Prime Minister would treat their families well!
Thinking of this, more than a dozen maids and servants protected Yun Qianmeng at the same time. Some of them were so desperate that they rushed to the front and started a shoving and confronting battle with the guards. The scene was extremely chaotic for a while. The maids' loud shouting and cursing and the guards' low scolding were intertwined, causing the soldiers who were checking elsewhere to rush into Qiluo Garden. Guard Liu, who was originally commanding the servants not far away, also rushed into Qiluo Garden with his men. Seeing that his lady was being bullied, he immediately drew his sword and rushed to the front, separating the people brought by Su Yuan!
"Miss Yun, are you going to disobey the order?" Su Yuan saw that Yun Qianmeng dared to openly resist, and saw the guards beside Yun Xuanzhi rushing into Qiluo Garden to protect Yun Qianmeng. He immediately narrowed his eyes and asked in a dangerous tone!
All she got was a cold snort from Yun Qianmeng. The moonlight bathed her face, making her stunning appearance appear incomparably cold. "Lord Su barged in so forcefully, yet accused me of disobeying his orders. How unfair! Think about it, which lady would allow an outsider into her boudoir? May I ask if Lord Su also treats Miss Su in the Su Mansion in this way?"
Su Yuan was speechless for a moment after being interrupted by Yun Qianmeng. He stared at Yun Qianmeng with murderous eyes. No wonder Yue'er, Su Qing and others were defeated by Yun Qianmeng. This girl is really quick-witted and observant!
Just now, he and Prince Chen had been checking along the northwest to southeast direction. Since his official rank was lower than Yun Xuanzhi's, his residence was naturally to the northwest of the Prime Minister's Mansion. When he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, his own Su Mansion had already been hastily inspected by people and then they left!
Yun Qianmeng's question was obviously an accusation of neglecting his duties and protecting his own mansion. In addition, the soldiers around him had followed him all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion, so they naturally understood that the inspection at the Su Mansion was just a show, which made Su Yuan at a loss for words to respond!
"What happened!" At this time, an extremely cold voice came from the door of Qiluo Garden, scaring everyone so much that they immediately lowered their heads and dared not look at the man who slowly walked in from the door!
"Your humble servant pays homage to Prince Chen!" Yun Qianmeng bowed to Prince Chen who walked into Qiluo Garden without being servile or arrogant. Then she straightened her back and stood up straight, looking at Jiang Muchen with a cold look in her eyes without dodging or avoiding!
"Sir Su, you actually brought so much time here with your men! If the emperor knew about this, how many heads would you have?" Jiang Muchen glanced at the situation in the courtyard and immediately understood what had just happened. He also saw that Yun Qianmeng, a lady from a noble family, was standing in front of a group of soldiers. Although she was dressed neatly, just the long black hair hanging behind her was enough to make Jiang Muchen's heart suffocate. His sharp eyes like an eagle immediately shot coldly at Su Yuan who was standing beside him, and there was a terrifying coldness in his tone!
When Su Yuan heard Jiang Muchen's tone, he immediately thought to himself that something was wrong. He raised his drooping eyes and glanced at Yun Qianmeng, only to see that the other party was staring at him with cold eyes, making Su Yuan feel like a living creature on the chopping board, waiting to be eaten by people. He immediately understood in his heart that all this was planned in advance by Yun Qianmeng, to make a big fuss in Qiluo Garden, and then King Chen, who was elsewhere, would definitely come here!
He had volunteered to accompany Prince Chen to search the various mansions this time, and he was the first to bring people to Qiluo Garden, intending to frame Yun Qianmeng or destroy her reputation. However, he didn't expect that this girl was so cunning, and attracted Prince Chen to let him see the current situation with his own eyes!
"Isn't this the prince's order? Lord Su broke into my Qiluo Garden so confidently that I thought it was the prince's order!" Yun Qianmeng's jade-like face flashed with a sneer, and she asked back in surprise!
Sure enough, King Chen's already tense expression became even uglier upon hearing this. His gloomy eyes shot sharply at Su Yuan, as if he was waiting for his explanation, but also as if he had already convicted him!
Seeing Yun Qianmeng still trying to take advantage of someone's misfortune, Su Yuan was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and expressed his loyalty to Prince Chen, "Your Highness, please understand! I only wanted to have someone enter Miss Yun's Qiluo Garden to inspect it, but Miss Yun kept obstructing me. I became suspicious, so I sent the guards in to inspect it. I absolutely had no intention of offending Miss Yun!"
"Nonsense! Your Highness, this Lord Su is clearly trying to force his way into the young lady's boudoir! The young lady is the apple of her eye. Not to mention a strange man entering the boudoir, even the housekeeper in the front yard is not allowed to enter during normal times! Lord Su is trying every possible way to destroy the young lady's reputation, and he even uses such a high-sounding excuse to prevaricate Your Highness. Please, Your Highness, make the decision for our young lady!" Before Su Yuan's voice faded in the air, a crisp voice was heard in the crowd!
Yun Qianmeng glanced sideways and found that it was Yingxia who was shouting to point out the flaws in Su Yuan's words. She was eloquent and had clear ideas. She and Yuandong, who had just subdued the guards, were indeed two rare talents. Yun Qianmeng's eyes actually showed a bit of admiration!
After listening to Yingxia's appeal, Jiang Muchen saw that Yun Qianmeng looked pale, with a hint of fatigue between her brows, while Su Yuan was full of hostility. He immediately understood that Su Yuan must be taking advantage of this incident to attack Yun Qianmeng in order to pave the way for his niece!
"Master Su, do you have anything else to say?" A cold voice sounded above Su Yuan's head, causing him to shudder. He raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind, and he immediately said, "Your Highness, Master Wu had already injured her during the day, and when Miss Yun was leaving the palace, there was a strong smell of blood in the carriage. Miss Yun explained that she was feeling unwell! It just so happens that we brought an imperial physician with us on this trip. Why not let the imperial physician take Miss Yun's pulse and see if she is lying..."
"Oh! I didn't expect Lord Su to be so considerate!" Yun Qianmeng laughed in anger, and there was a frightening coldness in her bright smile. The words that seemed to be praise contained deep irony!
Upon hearing this, Prince Chen looked towards Yun Qianmeng. Although his gaze was calm, a hint of doubt flashed across his face because of Su Yuan's words. He waved his hand, and a royal physician walked in from the periphery. He bowed to Prince Chen and whispered, "What are your instructions, Your Highness?"
"Examining Miss Yun!" Jiang Muchen stared intently at Yun Qianmeng's expression and spoke these words word by word, but a sinister smile appeared on Su Yuan's lowered face!
Yun Qianmeng's expression remained unchanged, not even her eyes. However, when she looked at Jiang Muchen again, the coldness in her dreamy eyes grew even stronger. She smiled and said casually, "Your Highness, there are many people in the courtyard and they are all gossipy. I would like to ask the imperial physician to accompany me to the room to take your pulse. Is that okay?"
Jiang Muchen looked around and saw that the Qiluo Garden, which was not very spacious to begin with, was already crowded with people. He waved his hand to let some of the guards leave the courtyard. Then he nodded and was about to follow the imperial physician to the attic, but was blocked by Guard Liu!
"Your Highness, this is our eldest lady's boudoir! Please stop!" Although Prince Chen had a terrifying aura and an extremely cold expression, Guard Liu was well aware of his responsibilities and would never let a strange man ruin the eldest lady's reputation!
Hearing Guard Liu's voice, Yun Qianmeng, who was walking in front, turned sideways and glanced at the irritated Prince Chen. With a hint of sarcasm, she said, "Your Highness, born into an imperial family, must be well aware of the importance of etiquette and rituals! Western Chu has always valued the honor of women, and the distinction between men and women is even more highly valued by the world! Although Your Highness is conducting a search under imperial orders, please observe etiquette! Furthermore, Your Highness just fulfilled your wish in the main hall not long ago. Don't dig your own grave again for the sake of trivial matters!"
Yun Qianmeng's voice was clear and cold, and it was very soothing to people's hearts in this hot summer and tense situation!
But after hearing her words, Prince Chen's face, which was always cold, suddenly frowned, and his two eagle-like sharp eyes shot towards Yun Qianmeng, but Yun Qianmeng had already turned around and led the imperial physician into her attic!
"Your Highness, why don't you send me there..." At this time, Su Yuan stepped forward and spoke in a flattering manner!
"Get out!" But what he got was King Chen's merciless roar!
Su Yuan's body trembled violently, and he couldn't help but muster up the courage to look up at Prince Chen, only to see that his eyes were fixed on Yun Qianmeng's back. Even though Yun Qianmeng had closed the door, Prince Chen's eyes still refused to leave the shabby wooden door!
"Lord Su, please go out first!" At this time, Ning Feng, the personal guard beside King Chen, stepped forward and forcibly asked Su Yuan to leave King Chen's side!
Only Ning Feng, who had been with Jiang Muchen since childhood, knew that King Chen was extremely angry at this moment. If one accidentally ignited his burning point, it would be something that ordinary people could not bear!
Jiang Muchen's hands, which were hanging at his sides and hidden in his sleeves, had already been clenched into fists. He was trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart!
He had never imagined that his decision to cancel the engagement that day would become Yun Qianmeng's excuse to stop him now. He had never imagined that Yun Qianmeng, who had tried to commit suicide in the hall and refused to cancel the engagement, could now speak of this matter so calmly!
Humph, what's the difference between men and women? If Yun Qianmeng really cared about what others thought, why didn't she just die after breaking off the engagement? Yun Qianmeng, what a naive person! She thought that this would stop him, that this would make him give up.
He wanted to see what tricks she could come up with today! Perhaps Yun Qianmeng didn't know that Chu Feiyang and Yun Xuanzhi were being kept in the palace by Emperor Yu Gan to discuss the reconstruction of the Yangxin Palace. It was probably because no one could come to save her!
His clenched fists loosened slightly, and Jiang Muchen actually took two steps forward. Ning Feng felt that his heart was in his throat. Before leaving, the Concubine Dowager had instructed that Prince Chen should not personally inspect Yun Qianmeng's courtyard. But now, the prince not only entered Miss Yun's courtyard, but also planned to enter the lady's boudoir. How could Ning Feng not be anxious? Just as he was about to open his mouth to persuade him, a sound of quick footsteps came from the gate of Qiluo Garden!
Everyone looked over and saw Yun Xuanzhi hurriedly entering Qiluo Garden with the Prime Minister's steward. Upon seeing the guards and Prince Chen filling the garden, Yun Xuanzhi's expression darkened. He spoke coldly, "What do you mean, Your Highness? Are you taking advantage of the fact that there's no one in charge of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Yun Xuanzhi immediately rushed to King Chen, staring at him with his eyes, but his body blocked in front of King Chen, preventing him from getting closer to the attic, and the anger in his body was released without restraint!
"Your Majesty, the prince is ordered to search all the mansions. Please forgive me!" Ning Feng saw Jiang Muchen pursed his lips and did not answer Yun Xuanzhi's words. Fearing that the situation would become awkward again, he immediately began to explain!
"Oh? Search by imperial order? But when I passed by other mansions just now, I didn't see any guards entering the courtyards of the young ladies and ladies! I don't know what Prince Chen is up to, to be so reckless as to disregard Miss Yun's reputation! Even if Your Majesty is dissatisfied with the late emperor's decision, he can't vent his anger on others like this! Wouldn't it be too ungraceful?" At this time, an extremely cold voice came from far to near. Everyone looked and saw Chu Feiyang walking in with a gloomy face, without his usual smile. The guards felt that Prime Minister Chu today was even colder than Prince Chen. The murderous aura emanating from his bones had been continuously released from his body since he stepped into Qiluo Garden!
Despite being attacked by these two men, Prince Chen remained calm and said, "Aren't Prime Minister Chu and Prime Minister Yun being kept in the palace by the Emperor today?"
"Hmph, if I hadn't returned to the Prime Minister's Residence, I'm afraid Prince Chen would have turned it upside down!" Yun Xuanzhi snorted coldly, then sneered! But in his heart, he was filled with fear. Yun Qianmeng's value had soared, and he naturally couldn't let his daughter suffer any injustice!
What's more, Prince Chen was the culprit who caused Yun Qianmeng to be ridiculed by the world, so Yun Xuanzhi was even more unhappy!
But at this time, Chu Feiyang did not speak again. Instead, he came to the tree in the garden, leaned against the trunk with his arms folded across his chest, and stared at King Chen with a face as cold as the surface of an icy lake!
"Tut tut..." At this time, the imperial physician left the room, walked down the stairs with his clothes in hand, and came to the front of Prince Chen. He shook his head slightly at Prince Chen, and then whispered, "Your Highness, Miss Yun is indeed unwell!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Muchen's eyes suddenly darkened, his lips tightened instantly, and he couldn't help but look up at the room. He whispered to Yun Xuanzhi, "Sorry for disturbing you," then waved his hand and prepared to leave with his men!
"Prince Chen, have you searched thoroughly? If it happens a second time, even if Prime Minister Yun agrees, I and the Prince Chu's Palace will not sit idly by!" At this time, Chu Feiyang, whose entire body was hidden by the shade of the tree, spoke coldly!
Jiang Muchen turned his head and saw that Chu Feiyang was shrouded in darkness. Only the moonlight that passed through the leaves fell on half of his face, leaving an extremely cold and bloodthirsty smile. Ning Feng, who was standing behind King Chen, was horrified and couldn't help but become wary of Chu Feiyang!
But Jiang Muchen just glanced at Chu Feiyang and turned away, walking out of Qiluo Garden without looking back...
"Are you sure there is no one hiding in her room?" After walking out of the Prime Minister's Residence, Prince Chen mounted his horse and asked the imperial physician beside him in a low voice!
"Your Highness, I am sure that there is no one else in Miss Yun's room! But, strangely, although Miss Yun is not feeling well, there is a faint smell of blood in the room! It's just that I can't smell where it comes from!" The imperial physician also rode a horse and whispered his findings in detail!
"Ning Feng!" Jiang Muchen immediately called Ning Feng over and whispered some instructions in his ear. Then, Ning Feng pointed out a few smart and capable subordinates and immediately went in the opposite direction!
"Thank you very much, Prime Minister Chu, today! I also know that Prime Minister Chu has conveyed to the prince that he is grateful for his advice!" At this time, the silence of the night had finally returned to Qiluo Garden. Yun Xuanzhi asked Guard Liu to withdraw, and he personally walked up to Chu Feiyang to thank him!
Just now, when he and Chu Feiyang were discussing with Emperor Yu Gan in the palace how to repair the Yangxin Palace, Jiao Da, who was beside the King of Chu, came into the palace overnight with the King of Chu's token, asked him and Chu Feiyang to leave the palace, and informed them of everything that happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion!
If I had arrived a step later, those soldiers would have already rushed into Meng'er's boudoir and ruined her life!
Thinking of this, Yun Xuanzhi felt a pang of fear in his heart, and even a layer of cold sweat appeared on his palms. Therefore, he was even more grateful for the help of King Chu and Chu Feiyang!
However, Chu Feiyang had already returned to his previous appearance. He just waved his hand towards Yun Xuanzhi and walked out of Qiluo Garden!
Seeing that everyone else had left, Yun Xuanzhi called Aunt Mi and asked her in detail about everything that happened that night. When he heard Su Yuan's name, a dangerous look flashed in Yun Xuanzhi's eyes. He then ordered a group of maids and servants to take good care of Yun Qianmeng, and he followed her out of Qiluo Garden!
Hearing the noise in the yard finally quiet down, Yun Qianmeng looked at the corner of the open wooden window and observed the movements in the yard. Only then did she let go of the heart that had been weighing on her all night. She then walked to the door and fastened the wooden bolt. Then she walked to a wooden box made of rosewood, took out a gold and jade key from her sleeve, opened the golden lock on the wooden box, and then opened the lid of the wooden box. She saw the man curled up in the box. When he saw Yun Qianmeng, sparks suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he wished he could kill Yun Qianmeng!
"I don't want to be implicated by you, nor do I want to die with you! You owe me for saving me this time! But please leave immediately!" Yun Qianmeng looked at the wooden box stained with his blood, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes, and he immediately spoke quickly and in a low voice!
The man naturally noticed the flash of heartache in Yun Qianmeng's eyes. Although he was barely breathing, he still looked superior. His pale lips curled upwards with effort, and he said weakly but with a hint of sarcasm, "I can't believe that the daughter of the Prime Minister is so stingy! It's just a red sandalwood box, and you're so distressed about it. It's really unworthy of such a noble person!"
Yun Qianmeng didn't have the extra time to argue with him!
After all, King Chen's withdrawal of troops was not because he had eliminated his suspicions about himself, but because the simultaneous appearance of Yun Xuanzhi and Chu Feiyang made King Chen realize the thorny nature of the matter, so he temporarily withdrew his troops!
Judging from the expression of the imperial physician when he carefully observed the outer and inner rooms of the palace, he might have noticed something. He might have already informed Prince Chen of all the clues he found, and Prince Chen's men had already been ambushing outside the prime minister's residence. If this man was not transported out as soon as possible, he might really bring about a fatal disaster!
Thinking of this, Yun Qianmeng hit him harder. The man gasped in pain, his eyes widened and he stared at Yun Qianmeng. If he wasn't afraid of attracting others, he would have cursed out loud!
"Do you need help?" Chu Feiyang finally couldn't bear it anymore. Seeing that Yun Qianmeng had tried her best but couldn't pull anyone out, he walked out from the dark corner and spoke!
But those smiling eyes suddenly dimmed when they saw Yun Qianmeng pulling the man's clothes, and then returned to their usual brightness, and walked towards Yun Qianmeng with a smile!
Yun Qianmeng seemed to have long been accustomed to Chu Feiyang's unexpected appearances. Moreover, from the moment Chu Feiyang followed Yun Xuanzhi into Qiluo Garden, she knew that he would not step out of Qiluo Garden so easily. He said goodbye to Yun Xuanzhi just now, and she was afraid that he would just hide in a deserted corner!
However, seeing Chu Feiyang's high spirits at this moment, without any trace of the anger he had during the day, Yun Qianmeng was a little surprised. She thought that Chu Feiyang would be angry for a while because she did not listen to his advice and left the house casually, but she didn't expect that he would be angry again after just half a day!
There was an indescribable emotion lingering in Yun Qianmeng's heart. Although she was not looking forward to Chu Feiyang's arrival, his arrival did solve a big problem for her. At least, transporting a grown man out of the Prime Minister's Mansion was a strenuous job. What's more, she was not completely sure that she could handle the situation outside the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time!
"This is an assassin, leave it to you! It has nothing to do with me!" Yun Qianmeng immediately dropped the clothes in his hand and clapped his hands, immediately distancing himself from the man in the box. The angry man glared at him again!
However, Yun Qianmeng threw him down with too much force, and there was only a sound of... bang, and the back of the man's head instantly hit the wooden box. He grimaced in pain but could not scream. He could only look at Yun Qianmeng with his red eyes!
Yun Qianmeng had been looked at like that countless times that night, and by now she had become immune to it. She spread her hands and said innocently, "I didn't mean it!"
Chu Feiyang stared at Yun Qianmeng at this moment. Seeing that she had recovered from her previous nervousness, he immediately said, "Jiao Da, carry the person away!"
Hearing this, Yun Qianmeng immediately looked towards Chu Feiyang, only to see another man walking out from the other corner of the room. It was actually Jiao Da, the guard beside King Chu!
He just watched Jiao Da walk quickly to the wooden box, pick up the man inside with one hand, carry him on his shoulder, and then jump out of the wooden window on the second floor and head towards the high wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion. His movements were so fast and agile that Yun Qianmeng had never seen before!
"Want to go over and take a look?" At this time, Chu Feiyang walked towards Yun Qianmeng and tempted her to speak!
"Your Excellency is joking. He is just a person who has nothing to do with me. Why should I care about him? If you have nothing else to do, please leave!" How could Yun Qianmeng not see his intentions? She had been tossing and turning for half the night, and she needed time to sort out everything that had just happened!
But Chu Feiyang showed no anger at her rejection and even expulsion. Instead, he spoke leisurely: "He treated you so well, do you think you can let him off so easily? Besides, you don't even know who he is, how can you get back what happened today?"
Hearing this, Yun Qianmeng raised her head and looked at Chu Feiyang, only to see a smile on his face, eyes, and mouth. She carefully considered the meaning of his words and was shocked for a moment. Could it be that he didn't want to hand the assassin over to King Chen?
However, Chu Feiyang did not allow Yun Qianmeng to think carefully. He suddenly pulled her into his arms when she was not paying attention, and held her waist tightly with one hand. He followed Jiao Da's route just now and easily crossed the high wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion under the cover of moonlight. He took her to sit in a carriage that had been prepared long ago and immediately rushed in a direction that Yun Qianmeng did not know...
"I'm warning you..." Inside the carriage, the assassin stared at Yun Qianmeng and Chu Feiyang with murderous eyes. Just as he was about to say something cruel, he was interrupted lazily by Chu Feiyang!
"If you have time to talk nonsense, why not conserve your energy? You'll be busy soon!"
A cryptic remark silenced the assassin, but it also made Yun Qianmeng look at Chu Feiyang, only to see that he had closed his eyes and rested, refusing to communicate with her!
The carriage galloped all the way, and the night chill penetrated into the carriage through the fluttering curtains, reducing the heat from the three people and also calming them down!
Yun Qianmeng watched the scenery outside flash by through the window. As the carriage drove on the street longer, it seemed to be getting further and further away from the silence just now. Until now, she could hear a burst of lewd sounds in her ears, and the scent of perfume and flowers filled the air, carrying a luxurious atmosphere that made people frown!
"Prime Minister, we're here!" Jiao Da, who was driving, steadied the carriage and whispered outside!
"Okay! Take him through the back door to Xiangfuju on the third floor first. I'll be there soon!" Chu Feiyang curled his lips slightly, then opened his eyes, glanced at the assassin whose expression became increasingly ugly, and whispered to Jiao Da!
The curtain that was originally hanging down was suddenly lifted up, and Jiao Da had already bent down and squeezed into the carriage. He picked up the assassin again, carried him and went into the back door!
"Your Majesty really knows how to enjoy yourself. Even at this late hour, you still don't forget to visit this nest of beauties! But I don't have time to waste with Your Majesty, so I'll take my leave first!" Yun Qianmeng knew that if she stepped into the back door in her gorgeous clothes, she would be kicked out by Yun Xuanzhi early tomorrow morning. Even worse, she would be paraded through the streets. Therefore, without waiting for Chu Feiyang to speak, she immediately took the initiative!
But Chu Feiyang calmly took out a bundle from under the seat, picked out a plain-colored men's brocade cloak from it, and put it on Yun Qianmeng himself without waiting for her to refuse. Then he carefully put the hat on the windbreaker on Yun Qianmeng's head to cover her too eye-catching face, and finally gathered the two sides of the cloak to cover Yun Qianmeng's too feminine body!
"I don't want to. Will the Prime Minister force me?" But Yun Qianmeng never appreciated it. There was a cold look on her covered face!
However, Chu Feiyang would not allow her to escape at all. His big hand accurately grasped Yun Qianmeng's wrist through the cloak, and before Yun Qianmeng could refuse, he had already taken her into the back door...
The chirping sounds and laughter of the orioles and swallows in the front yard immediately reached their ears, but they had already walked into this land, and no beautiful girl was pestering the handsome Chu Feiyang. Yun Qianmeng couldn't help but wonder in her heart, and for a moment she even forgot to struggle!
Being pulled up the stairs step by step by Chu Feiyang, he finally stopped at the door of a wing room. A roar came from inside, "Get out! I don't want to change clothes!"
The voice was so familiar and the tone was so bad, it was obviously that of the assassin just now!
"What did you do to him?" Yun Qianmeng raised her head, and the rejection in her big, watery eyes was gone, and there was a hint of cunning in them!
Chu Feiyang shrugged helplessly, then said innocently, "He's so dirty, of course he needs to be cleaned up properly, so as not to dirty other people's places!"
But Yun Qianmeng looked at the evil smile on Chu Feiyang's lips and listened to the roars coming from the room. She thought that Chu Feiyang must not use normal means to deal with the assassin!
"Who is he?" Although he had caught the assassin, Chu Feiyang was not in a hurry to ask for credit from Emperor Yugan. Instead, he brought the assassin to a place no one would expect. This assassin must be someone important!
"Assassin!" But the answer he got was Chu Feiyang's!
When Yun Qianmeng looked at him again, Chu Feiyang had already restrained the smile on his face. He stood at the door of Xiangfuju with a gloomy face and a calm demeanor. When Jiao Da opened the door of the wing room, Chu Feiyang pulled Yun Qianmeng and walked in together!
"Oh, this guest is so handsome!" To Yun Qianmeng's surprise, there were more than a dozen plump and thin brothel girls standing in Xiangfuju. These brothel girls were wearing brightly colored and revealing clothes, with heavy makeup on, and exuding a vulgar air from head to toe. When these brothel girls saw Chu Feiyang, a handsome young man dressed like a noble, walking into Xiangfuju, they naturally twisted their waists and came up to him!
Yun Qianmeng originally thought that with Chu Feiyang's personality, he would be able to have the best of both worlds!
However, Chu Feiyang had no interest in these vulgar women at all. He exuded a biting coldness all over his body. A cold light shot over, scaring the brothel girls to stop in their tracks. Jiao Da immediately took out a bag of cash from his arms and handed it to the leading girl. Then he opened the door of Xiangfuju, and the girl led the others out!
Xiangfu Residence was temporarily cut off from the obscene sounds outside. Yun Qianmeng looked over and saw the assassin lying on the soft couch beside the bed!
However, he was now wearing the clothes of a prostitute. A red bellyband was faintly visible under the light yellow gauze dress, and his snow-white skin made people imagine.
