Yang Wanyan shut up feeling wronged. Now that she was acting like a spoiled brat, she was about to be scolded...
Seeing Yang Wanyan feeling aggrieved, Zou Yangyao didn't bother to comfort her. He just said seriously, "Go to the home of the Minister of Revenue and invite his daughter to a poetry gathering. Remember to invite Ni Yueshuang!"
Yang Wanyan was stunned. "Ni Yueshuang? Why did you choose the daughter of the Minister of Revenue?"
She was a little confused.
"The selection is imminent. Ni Yueshuang needs the recommendation of the daughter of the Minister of Revenue to stay in the capital and participate in the selection. Otherwise, she will be driven back to the countryside."
Yang Wanyan was surprised. Ni Yueshuang was driven to the countryside?
Isn't she a person with both talent and beauty, gentle and virtuous, and everything about her is perfect?
He was actually sent to the countryside.
"Yes, I will definitely work hard."

Zou Yangyao went to the Second Prince's residence to apologize. When Jing Yuchen heard the report, he stood up.
Outside the mansion, the door was opened, and Jing Yuchen and Zou Yangyao looked at each other. Zou Yangyao pursed his thin lips and looked at Jing Yuchen who came out.
Jing Yuchen had a wicked smile on his face, and his narrow fox eyes flashed with sharp light.
"General Zou arrived really quickly. It's getting dark now. I wonder if it will be very cold at night."
Zou Yangyao frowned and responded calmly, "Thank you for your concern, Second Prince. This is what I deserve!"
"General, do you know who assassinated you that day?"
Zou Yangyao looked at Jing Yuchen gravely, "This general has many enemies, and this general is unaware of them all."
"General, aren't you curious?"
Jing Yuchen continued to ask, his expression full of interest, as if he was leading Zou Yangyao to be curious about who assassinated him.
"If the Second Prince is curious, then go and check it out!"
He is not curious at all!
Jing Yuchen chuckled. He was not interested in knowing who the assassin was. This showed that Zou Yangyao already knew who sent someone to assassinate him.
"Since you are not interested, if I interfere any more, it would be like a dog chasing a rat. General, please be careful tonight."
Like a fox, with a sly light in his eyes, he turned and left.
Zou Yangyao frowned and watched the door close, blocking his view.
Jing Yuchen probably had a purpose when he said these words.
After nightfall.
Zou Yangyao gradually became alert on the originally quiet street. He felt murderous aura spreading around him. Was there an assassin?
Sure enough, the next moment, assassins flew towards this side from both sides of the road, each holding a sharp blade in his hand, flashing with cold light and full of murderous intent.
Zou Yangyao frowned. This time, he knew that the assassin was definitely not sent by Jing Chengzhi!
Inside the mansion's bedroom, a servant spoke through the door and reported, "Second Prince, General Zou has been assassinated outside. Do you want to help?"
"What does this have to do with this prince?" A cold voice came from the room. He had no interest at all in caring about Zou Yangyao's life or death!
The servant was stunned for only a moment, and finally responded: "What if the assassins retreat and the general faints on the ground? Should a doctor be sent to save him?"
"What does this have to do with this prince?"
He still spoke indifferently, without any hesitation, and was going to stand by and watch Zou Yangyao!
The servant then withdrew.
Outside the mansion, there were eight assassins, each of them attacked him fiercely, but they did not intend to hurt his vital parts. Every move seemed to want to cripple him!
He kept greeting his arms and thighs.
Zou Yangyao had a rough idea of who sent these people after a slight guess.
He was angry and flew up, heading towards the Second Prince's mansion.
Tiles kept falling from the roof and hitting the ground, disturbing many people in the mansion.
Jing Yuchen was lying comfortably in the bedroom but was still disturbed. He frowned. How do these people do their work!
"Kick him out and beat him!" Jing Yuchen's voice came from the room. The guards guarding outside the door heard it and hurried to do it.
Before he could push the group of people off the roof, Zou Yangyao flew into the courtyard again.
The guards, holding spears, realized they were useless and shouted, "Who are these assassins? How dare they disturb the Second Prince!"
Zou Yangyao raised the corner of his mouth slightly. Doesn’t Jing Yuchen want to stand idly by and watch?
Don't you want to teach him a lesson with assassins?
He had to get close to Jing Yuchen today.
The sound of fighting outside became clearer and clearer. Jing Yuchen stood up angrily and walked outside to see what was going on.
But he had just taken two steps when the door was smashed down and a man was kicked into the room.
The assassin fell to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth, holding his chest, and trying to get up but unable to.
Before Jing Yuchen got angry, Zou Yangyao kicked another person away, and the person fell in front of Jing Yuchen again, fell at his feet, and screamed in pain.
These assassins appeared in front of Jing Yuchen. Jing Yuchen wanted to ignore them? I'm afraid he couldn't!
The guards in the mansion, holding spears, surrounded Zou Yangyao and the assassins. They could capture them with just a command from Jing Yuchen.
Jing Yuchen glanced at the people at his feet and thought they were idiots. How could they be so stupid? Zou Yangyao led them into the mansion, and they followed him in?
"Assassinated Zou Yangyao and came to the prince's palace to act wildly?"
Jing Yuchen stood at the door and roared angrily. The assassins then became alert. They shouldn't have disturbed Jing Yuchen, but Zou Yangyao was here!
Zou Yangyao sneered, "Second Prince, why didn't you attack the assassins? Are you in league with them?"
Even though he was exposed, Jing Yuchen did not panic. He just said with disdain: "This prince never meddles in other people's affairs. You were disrespectful to me and hurt me. How can I help you?"
"And you brought in the assassin. Could it be that General Zou wanted to use the assassination as a pretext to assassinate this prince?"
Jing Yuchen's eyes were cold. He looked at the guards beside him and ordered, "Open the gate and drive Zou Yangyao and these assassins out."
Afterwards, his eyes fell on the tiles and the door: "These losses should be charged to General Zou anyway. General Zou must remember to pay the compensation!"
The gate of the mansion was opened, and the guards, holding spears, warned Zou Yangyao: "General, please leave immediately!"
Zou Yangyao had already made up his mind that Jing Yuchen could not just stand by and watch, there was no way he would leave!
He flew up from the encirclement of assassins and guards and headed towards Jing Yuchen.
Jing Yuchen narrowed his eyes slightly, put his hands behind his back, and looked at him with disdain.
"General Zou, charging towards me? Are you trying to assassinate me?"
He pointed at Zou Yangyao and ordered the guards, "Capture this assassin, Zou Yangyao!"
Zou Yangyao was stunned. Jing Yuchen didn't even worry about his tongue being sticky, and he could actually say such words...
