Chapter 225 Killing Pei Yanchuan and Jiang Wanning
"What is a single dog?" Tuoba Yan'er asked. "I suspect you're insulting me."
"A single dog is someone who doesn't have someone they love, someone who doesn't have a partner." Shen Ruzhi acted like Tuoba Yan'er had never seen the world.
Actually, she learned it from Yu Hai.
Thinking of Yu Hai, a look of disappointment appeared on Shen Ruzhi's face. Did this guy even know that she had gone on a long trip? He didn't even come to see her off.
"Judging from your appearance, it seems like you have a partner, or it might just be unrequited love," Tuoba Yan'er teased.
Shen Ruzhi turned around, her back to Tuoba Yan'er, and said, "How could this young lady be troubled by love?"
"The only thing that can hold me back is food, food that I can never finish eating."
Yes, that's right. She was just thinking about all the delicious food Yu Hai invented, not missing that person.
'Whoa!'
The two were arguing when the coachman suddenly pulled the carriage abruptly.
Tuoba Yan'er lifted the curtain and asked, "Has there been another assassin?"
"No...no." The coachman pointed to a panting man carrying a bundle in front of him.
Shen Ruzhi also stuck her head out, and when she saw Yu Hai's figure, she was stunned.
Tuoba Yan'er laughed, "It seems that Cao Cao appears whenever you think of him."
Upon seeing Shen Ruzhi, Yu Hai strode towards the carriage, swallowing as he spoke, "Miss Shen."
"Why are you here?" Shen Ruzhi asked in a casual tone, but the look in her eyes betrayed her.
"I only received the message from Princess Langya after you left, so I rushed here."
"I should have caught up with you much earlier," Yu Hai said, scratching his head sheepishly. "Because I can't ride a horse, and the carriage crashed into a tree halfway there."
"Fortunately, a kind person gave me a ride on his cart for part of the way, and he also knew a side road."
"I ran along the path all the way here, and luckily I made it ahead of you."
Yu Hai finished speaking, panting, "Um...I...I've never been to Xixia."
"I was thinking of going to check out the situation there so that I could develop the Princess's business in Western Xia in the future. It's convenient to do so along the way."
"Could you give me a ride?"
Shen Ruzhi tried hard to suppress the corners of her mouth that were turning up involuntarily, and lowered the curtain.
Yu Hai lowered his head in disappointment and was about to turn around when he heard Sheng Ruzhi's voice from inside the carriage, "Then you can drive with the coachman."
"Okay, sure!" Yu Hai excitedly got into the carriage.
Jiang Wanning and Pei Yanchuan watched this scene from a short distance away.
Although Jiang Wan Ning was happy for Shen Ru Zhi, she also felt a sense of worry when she thought of Yu Hai's murder in her previous life.
It seems that I need to protect not only Zhizhi, but also Yu Hai.
Yu Hai once said that he was from outside this continent, and he hoped that nothing else would happen.
"What's wrong?" Pei Yanchuan noticed that Jiang Wanning was preoccupied and asked softly.
Jiang Wan Ning shook her head slightly, "I'm just thinking about Zhi Zhi's current status, I'm afraid her future with Yu Hai will be very bumpy."
"The Empress of Western Xia is a magnanimous person. I suppose that even if the Emperor of Western Xia wants to use Miss Shen's marriage to consolidate his power, the Empress of Western Xia will not agree if Miss Shen is unwilling."
Jiang Wanning nodded. "That makes sense."
Pei Yanchuan knew that Jiang Wanning had something on her mind that she hadn't told him, but she appeared to be fine on the surface.
However, since Jiang Wanning didn't say anything, he never forced her to ask.
......
"What brings Miss Song here?" Jiang Wanru was summoned to the teahouse by Song Zhuran early in the morning.
Song Zhuran sat cross-legged in front of a square table, on which were various trinkets sold by street vendors. She picked up one to look at it and then picked up another to fiddle with it.
Hearing Jiang Wanru's voice, she looked up and smiled sweetly, "Second Sister Jiang is here?"
"Please sit down."
Every time Jiang Wanru saw Song Zhuran's innocent and harmless smile, a chill ran down her spine.
He sat obediently opposite Song Zhuran.
Song Zhuran said slowly, "Yesterday I sent out several groups of people and finally locked onto the target."
"Second Sister Jiang, guess who the Lingxiao Sect is looking for?"
Jiang Wanru shook her head.
"Boring," Song Zhuran pouted. "It's that Shen Ruzhi."
"You mean Shen Ruzhi?!" Jiang Wanru's eyes flashed with shock, and then she realized that she had lost her composure, so she quickly lowered her head and apologized, "I was rude just now."
Song Zhuran, whose face had been gloomy, put on a sweet smile again, "It's okay."
"But it's not that Sister Jiang is stupid. It's just that Jiang Wan Ning has made a fool of everyone."
"If one of the people I sent hadn't faked his death and slipped back, I would have been fooled."
“Judging by the time, they should have arrived in Cangzhou by now. If they get into the territory of Western Xia, it will be difficult to make a move,” Jiang Wanru said.
She never expected that Shen Ruzhi was the person the Lingxiao Sect was looking for. Didn't that mean she was the princess of Western Xia?
She had already learned the identity of the person the Empress was looking for from Song Ruran yesterday.
Shen Ruzhi always disapproved of her, and most importantly, she was Jiang Wan Ning's good friend.
How could it be her? How could it be her!
"Miss Song, what should we do now?" Jiang Wanru asked with a sinister and malicious look in her eyes.
Song Zhuran fiddled with the rattle in her hand, "Cangzhou... I remember Princess Ping'an was punished and sent to Cangzhou to reflect on her actions."
"It seems that Princess Ping'an also hates Sister Jiang very much."
"Miss Song means to have Princess Ping'an take action? But what about the Grand Princess..."
Although Princess Ping'an hurt the Grand Princess's feelings, she was still the Grand Princess's daughter. If the Grand Princess found out that she had used Princess Ping'an, she would be in trouble.
Then I won't live much longer.
"What is Sister Jiang afraid of? You don't need to get involved."
"You just need to pass this message on to Princess Ping'an."
"Why doesn't Miss Song herself..." Before Jiang Wanru could finish speaking, Song Zhuran interrupted, "Second Sister Jiang, talking too much will make you lose your tongue."
Jiang Wanru watched as Song Zhuran easily pulled the string off the rattle drum, as if the string in her hand was her own tongue, and dared not ask any more questions.
Song Zhuran smiled with satisfaction.
She naturally couldn't show her face again; her master didn't want Xi Mama, this pawn, to be discovered too early, so she could only send Jiang Wanru instead.
Furthermore, when something goes wrong, there will naturally be scapegoats.
Jiang Wanru left the teahouse and gave Song Zhuran's room a fierce look.
"One day, I will trample you all under my feet!"
Jiang Wanru returned to the Prince's Mansion and summoned Pei Anqing, saying, "Your injuries have almost healed, and now there is a good opportunity for revenge."
Pei Anqing glanced listlessly at Jiang Wanru, "What are you planning to do now?"
"Kill Pei Yanchuan and Jiang Wanning."
"Why not? Don't you want to? Or are you reluctant to give it up?"
