225. Chapter 225 Just Him



Hearing these unpleasant words one after another, General Yu was so angry that he suddenly jumped up from his rocking chair, pointed at the housekeeper's nose and cursed.

"Bullshit! I'm fine, your master!"

The butler wiped the sweat off his face and gasped for breath.

"Master, something serious has happened! Didn't you ask me to keep an eye on what's going on outside?"

"Just now a large group of people entered the city. I heard someone call the leader, 'General Li'!"

"What?!"

General Yu stood up suddenly and stared at him closely.

"Are you sure you heard it right?!"

The housekeeper nodded repeatedly, "I heard it all. I also vaguely heard something about Governor Xu. They also said they were going to look for the Second Prince!"

General Yu had a solemn expression and his brows were furrowed.

"General Li, Li family? Governor Xu..."

Suddenly, he slapped his thigh and said, "Not good!"

"Hurry, hurry, go and prepare the horse, I want to go out!"

The butler responded and hurried to the stable.

"Father, the Li family came here with their army in a big way. It must be the emperor's order. What about the Han family?"

Yu Canjun narrowed his eyes and looked at him deeply, "The Han family is in trouble. We must find another way out."

Then he straightened his clothes and ran out quickly.

I hope I can get there before them.

Bamboo Cloud Residence.

Chu Yaoyao was sleeping soundly when suddenly the system issued a loud alarm, waking her up.

System: Host, wake up! Something big has happened! "What's wrong? What's wrong?!"

Chu Yaoyao suddenly opened her eyes, turned over and looked outside.

System: The Han family father and son led their troops to surround Zhuyunju! "What?!"

At the same time, outside the gate.

Feng Chi stood on the steps, holding the sword tightly in his left hand across his chest, looking at the Han father and son in front.

"It's late at night. Has Governor Han gone to the wrong place?"

Han Jifu shouted loudly: "I was chasing the assassin just now, but I lost him near Zhuyunju. The group must have slipped into the courtyard!"

As he spoke, he raised his legs and walked forward, approaching step by step.

"For the safety of the two princes, I must go in and conduct a thorough search!"

"stop!"

Feng Chi drew his sword and pointed it at him.

Seeing his action, there was a "swish swish" sound all around, and the officers and soldiers brought by the Han family drew their swords and pointed them at him.

Han Jifu continued to walk forward and was about to step onto the stairs.

"Is Governor Han trying to force his way in?!"

Chu You strode over and looked down at him.

Han Jifu bowed slightly, reluctantly and extremely perfunctorily.

"Meet the Second Prince."

He was disdainful in his heart, and Chu You disliked him even more, so he simply turned his eyes away, thinking out of sight, out of mind.

"There is no assassin you are looking for here. Governor Han can go back now!"

Han Jifu sneered and started to lie with his eyes open.

"Second Prince, I know that you must have been held hostage by an assassin, which is why you said such insincere words. Don't worry, I will arrest the assassin right away!"

"presumptuous!"

He Xi pointed at him and shouted, "Han Jifu, how dare you disrespect His Highness?!"

"This old minister is also concerned about the safety of the two princes."

After saying that, Han Jifu raised his right hand and swung it forward vigorously.

"Why don't you go in and search thoroughly? You must catch him now, regardless of life or death!"

A large number of soldiers approached the door, and Li Wanming, wearing a mask, glanced over with a sharp look.

"Anyone who trespasses into Zhuyun Residence will be killed!"

As he said the word "kill", a dart shot out from Li Wanming's hand. The dart brushed past Han Jifu's neck and pierced deeply into the hand of a soldier holding a torch.

"ah!"

The severe pain made the soldier throw the torch away instantly, and he shouted while covering his bleeding hand.

The torch you threw out burned the clothes of the two soldiers nearby, and you two shouted in panic.

"Help! Help me!"

A group of people came to help put out the fire and the scene was in chaos.

"Stand still!"

Han Lin roared at the officers and soldiers, and everyone quickly stood up. Except for the one who had his hands stabbed and the two who were burned, everyone raised their weapons.

He reached out and grabbed the sword from the guard beside him and pointed it at him.

"He is hiding his head and showing his tail, and he is using a shameful hidden weapon. He must be an assassin!"

In the room, looking at the scene outside, Chu Yaoyao was extremely anxious.

[System, please think of a solution! ]

The Fang family's grandparents and grandchildren also looked panicked and worried, especially Aunt Li, who tightly grasped her cane and stared at the door.

He looked like he would rush forward with his crutch in hand and fight if someone broke in.

System: Don’t worry.

Chu Yaoyao pursed her lips slightly and had a tense face.

【What's the meaning?】

System: Look! "Stop!"

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao clenched her fists excitedly and stared at the screen with burning eyes.

[Is there help coming? ]

After this sound, a man climbed down from the horse in an unfamiliar and clumsy manner.

This person is Yu Canjun.

After seeing his face clearly, Chu Yaoyao's mouth twitched and she rolled her eyes.

[Just him? ]

[Isn't he on the Han family's side? ]

System: Uh...

Well, it’s too early.

General Yu shook his weak legs and walked towards the Han father and son, pretending to be puzzled.

"Han Governor, you said you wanted to catch the assassin. I thought that it was all for the sake of protecting the two princes. You can command the soldiers at your disposal, but what are you doing?"

Han Ji glanced at him again, ignored his crazy attitude and words, and waved heavily to the officers and soldiers behind him.

"Search for me!"

"stop!"

General Yu jumped up and down, angrily scolding the group of officers and soldiers who were ready to make a move.

"Let's see who dares!"

You can thank me one by one in the future!

I saved your lives!

Han Jifu pushed him away heavily, "Go in and catch the assassin!"

"The imperial decree is here, who dares to act rashly?"

Chu Yaoyao looked over and before she saw anyone, she heard footsteps mixed with the sound of horse hooves.

Li Wanjing rushed over on his horse, shouted three times, and held high the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand.

Chu Yaoyao jumped on the spot.

【Uncle! 】

Seeing the large group of people behind him, Han Jifu's sword fell to the ground with a clang.

Oops!

Li Wanjing tightened the reins, glanced at them, and then jumped off the horse.

The soldiers they brought also surrounded the people brought by the Han father and son.

He glanced at the Han father and son, then strode up the stairs and bowed to Chu You.

"Meet the Second Prince."

Afterwards, he patted Li Wanming's shoulder with appreciation and satisfaction.

Just at this time, Xu Kuang's carriage also arrived.

Seeing him, Chu You slightly widened his eyes, with a hint of excitement that was easily noticeable in his eyes, and he subconsciously shouted something in a low voice.

"uncle?"

Li Wanjing unfolded the imperial edict and everyone knelt on the ground.

"The Emperor, in accordance with the Will of Heaven, proclaimed that Han Jifu, the governor of Luozhou, and his son, Han Lin, the magistrate of Luo County, secretly colluded with Xiyue, bribed important officials in the court, and abused their power for personal gain... They were sentenced to death, and all their property was confiscated into the national treasury.

Xu Guang, the former editor of the Hanlin Academy, is an honest and incorruptible official, diligent and dedicated to his duties. He is specially appointed as the governor of Luozhou and is to take office immediately to investigate the case of fraud in the autumn examination of the Han family. This is my decree!"

"I obey your order. Long live the emperor!"

Xu Kuang respectfully raised his hands above his head and took the imperial edict from Li Wanjing.

He looked at the bright yellow scroll in his hand excitedly. Although he already knew the result, it was not until this moment that he felt completely at ease.

This day, he finally waited for!

Unlike his excitement, the Han father and son looked at each other as if they had lost their parents.

The Han family is finished! And Yu Canjun was secretly delighted in his heart.

Hehe, the bet was right!
