Chapter 536 Going to Pick Up Someone with Shen Muyang
Hearing Leng Bing's words, Ning Bao couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
"sharp!
You're so smart!
Leng Bing was very happy to be praised by her master.
"It's all thanks to the master's excellent teaching."
...........................
Three days later, at the wedding banquet of the Third Prince and Liu Xiulan, the Liu family planned to scheme against Ningbao once again.
This time, they weren't trying to marry Ningbao to the Third Prince, nor were they trying to marry her to anyone else. They simply wanted to ruin Ningbao's reputation and bring shame to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
Unfortunately, Su Jingshu and Gu Yunrou kept a very close eye on Ning Bao, so the Liu family had no chance to make a move.
Ningbao originally wanted to have some fun with them, but unfortunately she didn't have a chance to really shine.
Returning to the mansion with a slight sense of "regret," Ning Bao had just finished washing up and was preparing to draw some talismans.
Although she still has a lot of stock, she still likes to draw a little when she has free time, just in case she needs it someday. Anyway, these things don't expire.
She had just picked up her pen when she heard Leng Shuang's voice.
"Master, General Shen has arrived."
Ning Bao put down her pen and looked towards the door.
Why are you up so early today?
Did they even use an invisibility talisman?
Is something the matter?
Shen Muyang nodded.
"Uncle Chen... no, now I should say Uncle Xue..."
Hearing that her uncle was in trouble, Ningbao became anxious. She quickly gathered up the things she had just arranged and hurried to Shen Muyang.
"Brother Muyang, forget about your uncle and tell me what happened."
What happened to my uncle?
Shen Muyang comforted Ning Bao,
"Don't worry, here's how it is."
My men received word that multiple groups of assassins had been dispatched from the capital to intercept and kill the Xue family's orphans.
I happened to have some free time, so I thought I'd go and greet them.
I was wondering if you'd like to come along?
Ning Bao nodded.
"Yes, of course I'll go. Wait for me a moment."
After Ning Bao finished speaking, she quickly went back to her inner room to change into a neat set of clothes, then packed two more sets of clothes and addressed the maids.
"Leave the cold snow and mist in the manor. When you have time, pay attention to the latest happenings in the capital and come back to hear your stories."
"Cold ice, cold frost, come with me..."
"Brother Muyang, please wait for me a while. I'll go and talk to my parents."
Shen Muyang nodded.
"Okay, take your time."
We'll just use a flying talisman to get there; it won't waste any time.
"Besides, my uncle has people around Uncle Shen and his group; as long as they're not top-tier experts, there shouldn't be any problems."
However, the information Shen Muyang received indicated that the other party was a top expert, and he didn't tell the truth because he was afraid Ning Bao would worry.
"Okay." Ningbao said and ran off in a flash.
Zhou Chengxing and Su Jingshu were also very anxious when they heard that Shen Junshan was in danger. They grabbed their swords and headed outside.
"Ningbao, you stay at the manor with your mother. I'm going to rescue people."
Ning Bao quickly took a few steps and grabbed Zhou Chengxing.
"Father, you can't go. The situation in the capital is unstable. If something goes wrong, you'll be more useful than me if you stay."
Besides, we didn't know exactly where my uncle and the others were at that time. There were too many uncertainties, so it was better for my brother Muyang and me to go.
Actually, Ningbao planned to go by herself, but she knew that everyone would be worried if she went alone....................
Zhou Chengxing and Su Jingshu didn't want Ningbao to take any risks, but the emperor in the palace didn't have much time left.
Although the Emperor did a lot of work to keep quiet, even Consort Liu was on guard.
But everyone here is a smart man, and the more the emperor guards against him, the more suspicious people will become.
Then, someone with ulterior motives arrested two people from the Imperial Medical Academy and subjected them to severe torture to extract confessions, thereby obtaining accurate information:
The Emperor is dying!
The emperor is dying, but he has not yet appointed an heir, which has made various forces eager to make their move.
Originally, the most popular candidate for crown prince was the third prince, Chu Junchang. However, the recent series of scandals involving the third prince has caused rational, reasonable, and clear-headed officials to hesitate.
After all, although they had chosen sides, they did not want to serve an emperor who was blinded by lust; what they needed was a wise ruler.
The entire capital is on edge right now, and it's indeed inappropriate for Zhou Chengxing, the Prince of Zhenbei, to leave at this time.
Zhou Chengxing ultimately decided to stay, and he sent several more bodyguards to Ning Bao's side.
After Ning Bao and Shen Muyang reunited, the group used invisibility talismans to leave the city.
At this time, the capital was full of spies, and a large-scale exodus of people on horseback would definitely attract the attention of various forces.
Ning Bao only wanted to save people; she didn't want to become the center of attention.
Riding on horseback, Shen Muyang appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he was overjoyed. After so long, he could finally ride side by side with her again...
But as soon as they left the city, they were stopped by Bai Ming, who had been chasing after them.
"Ningbao, Muyang, I have a tricky matter I need your help with. I wonder if that would be possible?"
Ning Bao knew that her eldest brother rarely spoke to her, so this time it must be something very important.
Ning Bao first consulted the oracle and found that her uncle was not in immediate danger, so she agreed to go with Bai Ming to handle the matter.
............................
At this moment, on the official road from Yunlu City to the capital, Shen Junshan... no, he should now be called Xue Junshan.
Xue Junshan and "Liu Qingru" have just gone through a life-or-death battle.
Xue Junshan felt a pang of guilt when he saw the still-bleeding wounds on his body.
"I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this again."
The woman shook her head.
"Protecting you is my mission, you don't need to blame yourself."
Xue Junshan threw the medicine to the woman.
"This medicine was made by Doctor Bai, so it should be more effective than ordinary wound medicine. You should use this one."
In fact, this woman was not Liu Qingru, but someone Gu Zheyuan selected from Leng Wei to impersonate Liu Qingru.
This was also one of the countermeasures discussed by Xue Junshan and Gu Zheyuan.
This trip was unavoidable and destined to be fraught with danger.
Xue Junshan is doing well; he has never slacked off in practicing kung fu, whether in the past or now.
