Lu Yanluo was shocked, and then she was ecstatic!
"Really!"
She was so excited that she suddenly felt that her previous social failure was not that important!
But Chu Xuan soon discovered that he could only block out the voice in Lu Yanluo's heart when he strongly didn't want to listen. Normally, he could still hear it.
for example……
[Oh, oh! He can't hear me!]
[I am dying of suffocation! Screw your mind reading skills! I will curse you to death, you bastard! ]
[Dog prince! Dog scumbag! Ahahahaha! ]
Chu Xuan held his forehead with his hand: "..."
He had to take special pains to block out Lu Yanluo's thoughts, and under normal circumstances he didn't want to be tense and block out all the time.
That's it.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps as vast as a mountain outside the cave, obviously a large group of people!
Lu Yanluo was cursing in her heart, but when she heard footsteps, she jumped up in fright: "So many people?"
Chu Xuan calmly shook his head: "Only the government can command this number of troops, otherwise it would be no different from treason."
Sure enough, the next second, a white figure appeared at the entrance of the cave.
"Your servant Wenjie greets Lord Ye."
It’s Wen Jie!
Lu Yanluo hurried over and said, "Thank you, General Wenjie, for coming to rescue us."
Wen Jie looked at Chu Xuan somewhat embarrassedly, and said solemnly: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I have only met the princess a few times. Your guard Shen went to the wife of the Marquis of Zhenbei for help, and she came to me, so I came here. Please do not misunderstand the princess."
After saying that, he lifted up the front of his robe and knelt down in front of Chu Xuan, looking as if he was sincerely asking for forgiveness.
The air turned silent at this moment, as if frozen.
Chu Xuan suddenly snorted coldly, stretched out his hand to help Wen Jie up, and said coldly: "It is the fault of the court and even more so the fault of the emperor that General Wen is like this."
Wen Jie was stunned and stood up stupidly, not knowing how to react.
"General Wen, you've been wandering around in the land of romance for six years. Are you tired of this kind of life?"
Chu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Wen Jie seriously.
At this moment, it is not the king asking his subjects, but friends greeting each other.
Wen Jie had witnessed too much ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness of the royal family, so he didn't know how to react when he heard such words.
Chu Xuan added: "General Wen, I have never doubted your friendship with the princess, just as I will never doubt that a talented general will be more successful than his master. I am different from His Majesty in the palace. I have been on the battlefield and know the passion and difficulty of fighting on the battlefield. I will never be like those superiors in the capital who are ignorant of the sufferings of the world and randomly suspect the soldiers who defend their country and fight on the battlefield!"
Wen Jie was completely stunned.
How long has it been since you heard something like this?
I don't remember.
Maybe it was six years ago, or maybe it was when I saw countless imperial edicts sent to the military camp.
Your Majesty will only order him not to pursue and return the military token, otherwise he will be killed on the spot!
"Your Majesty."
Wen Jie closed his eyes and said solemnly: "I am willing to help you ascend the throne, restore order to the court, and bring peace and prosperity to the people."
Chu Xuan waved his hand and said indifferently: "The general is very righteous, and I know it. But if you want to fight for a place in the court today, with the general's passion, it is at best a moth flying into a flame. This is a dark and dirty place. Only by using sinister means can you survive and be qualified to fight, just like now..."
He was halfway through his words when he suddenly drew out the long sword from his waist with one hand and killed a small soldier next to Wen Jie with one sword.
"These are the guards of Prince Ning's Mansion. It seems that there are quite a few scumbags around General Wen."
Chu Xuan casually wiped the sword with the little soldier's clothes and put it back into the sheath.
Wen Jie was still in shock.
It’s not that he was afraid that Chu Xuan had killed someone, but he was afraid that someone so close to him was actually a spy from Prince Ning’s Mansion!
"Why did King Ning send someone to be by my side?" Wen Jie couldn't understand.
Chu Xuan said calmly, "Because A'Luo went to look for you once. Although you pretended to be in a gentle place all day, everyone knew who you were and what achievements you had made six years ago. So King Ning would not allow you to get along with A'Luo and become his power. So he would definitely send someone to keep an eye on you."
"Can……"
Wen Jie thought the emperor was despicable enough, but he didn't expect that Prince Ning, who held half of the country, would send people to infiltrate the closest position to him just because Lu Yanluo met him once!
"General Wen, do you understand this sinister trick?"
Chu Xuan was calm and composed. He took Lu Yanluo away, leaving Wen Jie alone and disheveled.
Sitting in the carriage back to the palace, Lu Yanluo was still a little scared and asked cautiously, "Chu Xuan, was that soldier really the Prince of Ning's spy?"
Chu Xuan sneered: "What are you thinking about!"
"I'm sorry." Lu Yanluo lowered her head: "I'm really not very polite."
Chu Xuan looked at her lovingly and said with a smile, "I have seen all the guards and soldiers in Prince Ning's mansion, and I know them all. Naturally, I can tell at a glance. Don't say you doubt it. Wen Jie will definitely check it out when he comes back. However, I have a clear conscience, so let him check it as he pleases."
Lu Yanluo didn't say anything.
[All the guards and soldiers in Prince Ning's mansion should be quite a lot, right? At least several hundred? ]
[He can remember everything? ]
[No wonder Yuanyuan and Yaoyao are two little geniuses, it turns out they inherited their father's genes. Although Chu Xuan is a bit of a scumbag, he has a really good brain! ]
Chu Xuan laughed secretly in his heart, trying hard not to show it.
"But Prince Ning has hired hundreds of assassins to assassinate you in the suburbs. It's such a big fuss, I'm sure you can't hide it from His Majesty, right?" Lu Yanluo sorted out her thoughts, "Why don't you take the initiative and sue His Majesty for the assassination of Prince Ning first to prevent him from taking desperate measures."
Chu Xuan said calmly: "Based on my understanding of him, he went to Your Majesty to sue me the moment he knew we fell off the cliff."
Lu Yanluo's eyes were filled with disbelief: "He sent hundreds of assassins to assassinate you. With such a serious crime with all the evidence, he still dared to accuse you first?"
Hearing this, Chu Xuan sighed imperceptibly.
Then he said slowly: "Your Majesty cares most about my mother, and he is the only one in the world who believes it. So as long as Prince Ning tells me to come out to pay tribute to my mother, His Majesty will naturally believe it. Even if I drag the bodies of all the dead men in Prince Ning's mansion in front of him, he will not want to believe that I was assassinated."
Lu Yanluo's mouth twitched: "Your Majesty, this is too..."
[Too petty! ]
The following words were really impolite, and she didn't curse Chu Xuan's biological father out loud.
Chu Xuan, on the other hand, said bluntly: "Our Majesty is such a narrow-minded person, so I must get the Shadow Order, because the evidence that can make him believe that my mother is innocent can only come from the Shadow Order that he personally trained."
This is also the real reason why he is obsessed with the Shadow Order.
