Chapter 81 Delivering a Letter (Second Update)
From the beginning to the end, every moment, Yu Jianning was very clear about what his mission was, which was to protect Shu Wan's safety. If anything happened to Shu Wan.
He couldn't explain to his brother!
"But I can't just watch Yuwen Yan attack innocent people like this. Besides, Yuwen Yan and the prince are fighting in full swing. The prince's marriage to Beishuo will inevitably have a significant impact on Yuwen Yan in the court. If we let the marriage team enter the capital smoothly, Yuwen Yan will not be able to continue to cover the sky with one hand. The prince will put pressure on him, and the focus should be shifted away from Rong Chen. We can take this opportunity to rescue him!" Shu Wan's purpose is very strong. He wants to strike at Yuwen Yan's power, and then secretly rescue Rong Chen when he is overwhelmed.
"But..." But this is too dangerous. Yu Jianning hesitated to speak, "No, Shu Wan, if you insist on doing this, I can't stop you, but I must send a message to Blackwater City for help. It's just the two of us. It's too dangerous. I'm afraid I can't protect you when you are in danger!" Yu Jianning was too scared. He was not afraid of death. He was afraid that Shu Wan would be in danger and he couldn't protect Shu Wan.
"No need to ask for help yet." Shu Wan shook her head. "We are few in number now and it is not easy to be exposed. Yuwen Yan is a scheming man. He can kidnap Rong Chen with such great trouble. He must be paying attention to the movements in the city at all times. If Rong Chen's people are dispatched in large numbers at this time, it will definitely arouse his vigilance. If he knows our purpose, he will hide Rong Chen more secretly at best, or even attack Rong Chen. We can't take this risk, do you know?" Shu Wan said seriously. She knew that Yu Jianning was thinking about her safety, but now she could only do this first, and then get closer to Yuwen Yan to see if she could find any clues! Yu Jianning felt that what she said made sense.
"Okay, I can't argue with you, just do whatever you want!" At worst, he would use his own life to protect her.
Tsk, he's just being stubborn and keeps saying that he has no feelings for Rong Chen, but his actions are so real!
He despised Shu Wan in his heart, and at the same time felt a little aggrieved! The next day, Yu Wenyan came to find Shu Wan and said that everything had been arranged, and asked Shu Wan and Yu Jianning to go in as the mess staff of the post station.
Then Shu Wan thanked him profusely and said that he would definitely repay him if he had the chance in the future.
Yu Jianning still looked displeased with him! Yu Wenyan didn't really care.
At worst, we can just kill him tonight when there's chaos! Yu Jianning quickly found two sets of kitchen boy's clothes, and after they changed into them, they moved into the post house under Yu Wenyan's arrangement.
"Miss Shu, Mr. Yu, this is all I can do to help you. Please be careful!" Yu Wenyan warned.
"Thank you, Master Wen." Shu Wan thanked him sincerely, "We will definitely be careful!"
Yu Jianning simply bowed slightly to express his gratitude.
"Hey, you two, what are you doing standing there? Come and give me a hand! We're busy here, and you're still slacking off!" The kitchen manager stood there and loudly scolded Shu Wan and the other two.
"Oh, here I come!" Shu Wan quickly responded, then turned around and walked towards him with Yu Jianning.
"I really don't know why the master arranged these two people to come in, and also ordered to ensure the safety of this woman's life. They are really a burden. The two people are together, why kill one and save the other!"
Shu Wan and Yu Jianning walked slowly past him, and she narrowed her eyes slightly.
The kitchen manager asked her and Yu Jianning to be responsible for chopping firewood.
Yu Jianning held the axe and easily split a whole piece of firewood into pieces, while Shu Wan squatted beside to pick them up.
"General Yu, for your own safety, you must follow me closely today!" Shu Wan said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Why?" Yu Jianning asked her without stopping his hands.
"Yuwen Yan wants to kill you!" Shu Wan said truthfully.
"Not kill you?" Yu Jianning was stunned for a moment, then asked back, he said, how could Yuwen Yan be so kind, it turned out he was planning something bad.
"Maybe you think I'm so beautiful, so you don't want me to die!" Shu Wan said narcissistically.
"You're still in the mood to joke!" Yu Jianning cursed, "How did you know?" he asked again.
"The manager just told me!" Shu Wan didn't lie at all.
Yu Jianning: …
Forget it, she is just a lunatic, I don’t want to bother with her.
"This post station is full of his people!" Shu Wan put away his smile and replaced it with a serious look on his face.
"I've seen it!" Yu Jianning had observed this when he just came in. All the servants here were very steady whether they were doing things or walking. It was easy to find flaws in their behavior, and their eyes were full of vigilance.
"Be careful. Unless there is an extremely urgent situation, let's try to stay together." Shu Wan stood up, holding seven or eight pieces of firewood, and left.
Yu Jianning didn't say anything, but carefully looked around while working.
As the sun sets, Beishuo's marriage team moves into the post station.
Everything was too quiet.
"You, go and deliver food to the princess!" It was unknown whether Shu Wan was lucky or someone did it intentionally, but she was assigned by the steward to deliver food to the princess who was marrying into the Beishuo clan.
"Yes!" Shu Wan quickly agreed, then carried the plate and quickly went to the princess's resting room.
When she reached the door, she was stopped by two maids guarding the door.
"Give it to us!" The maid didn't let Shu Wan enter the house.
Shu Wan had no choice but to let the maid bring in the food.
Shu Wan walked back slowly and couldn't help but look back twice.
The maid at the door brought the food and then opened the door and went in.
Shu Wan was filled with anxiety, hoping that nothing would go wrong.
"Princess, please have your meal!" The maid brought the food into the room and spoke respectfully.
"I got it, go out!" The girl sitting on the bed was wearing a bright red wedding dress and a bright red veil on her head, so her face could not be seen clearly.
After the maid left, the girl took off the veil on her head and walked to the table.
She used chopsticks to scoop up the rice in the bowl, but she didn't have much appetite and was about to put down her chopsticks. At this moment, she noticed that there seemed to be something in the bowl.
So she quickly took out the thing like a thief, and found it was a note. When she opened it, she saw the following words written on it: Someone wants to take your life, look for an opportunity to escape, and burn it after reading.
The princess was horrified and subconsciously wanted to run out to find someone, but then she remembered the note in her hand, looked around, and finally made up her mind and simply ate the note!
