The chatter continued, "Oh dear, she...she...she actually cleaved a person in two! How much must she have hated that assassin?"
This also shows how much she loves Yun Wang.
Her violence was all for revenge for her beloved.
Oh, poor prince!
His voice was not low, and Ye Zhen had excellent hearing. Hearing the sound of thousands of ducks, Ye Zhen glanced at him.
Terrified by the murderous intent in her eyes, Wang Jingshuo quickly wrapped his arms around Kunlun Nu's neck and gripped her waist tightly with his legs.
"Kun Kun, is she going to kill me to silence me?"
Neither the Crown Prince nor the others mentioned that Ye Zhen liked Prince Yun, which shows that it was a secret.
Unfortunately, he happened to run into it.
"Aww!"
He was simply curious about Ye Zhen, and after hearing his family praise her, he learned that she had left the city today. That's why he decided to come out and get close to Ye Zhen to see who she really was.
"Curiosity really does kill the mind; I should have known better than to come..."
Kunlun slave said helplessly, "Let it go."
I can barely breathe.
My master is good in every way, except that he talks too much and is too cowardly. Over the years, his mouth has caused a lot of trouble.
He's bad at games but loves to play.
Upon hearing this, Wang Jingshuo loosened his grip slightly. "Sorry, Kun Kun, I didn't mean to. I just got startled by him without realizing it..."
Amidst his muttering, the assassin began to retreat and flee.
Those who realized they couldn't escape promptly bit open the venom sac in their mouths.
The assassins either fled or died; not a single one was captured alive.
Wang Jingshuo jumped off the Kunlun slave's back in a hurry, "Kun Kun, go and catch one."
He wanted to see which bastard had sent so many people to assassinate Ye Zhen.
The Crown Prince must also want to know that, as a qualified subordinate, he must think things through.
"Need not."
Ye Zhen stopped him, saying, "Young Master Wang, don't pursue a desperate enemy."
The assassins, who still had a chance to escape, all chose to take poison, indicating that they had received a death order before they came out.
Even if the Kunlun slaves catch up with them, they will take poison before being captured.
The Kunlun slaves might get injured if they chased after them.
Most importantly, she now knows what she wanted to know.
Wang Jingshuo was puzzled, but he was perceptive; Xiao Zeze hadn't chased after him, so there must be a reason why he didn't.
He then asked Ye Zhen, "How did you know I was Young Master Wang?"
They haven't seen it yet.
Could it have been the Crown Prince who told her?
Normally, Ye Zhen would have laughed out loud, but today she couldn't laugh. She only said, "You and Madam Wang look somewhat alike."
What's more like their expressions when they love gossiping is their true nature.
Xie Tingzhou had already told her about Wang Jingshuo, so it wasn't difficult for her to recognize him.
Wang Jingshuo touched his face and muttered to himself, "Does it look like it? I've never heard anyone say that before?"
Ye Zhen didn't pick up on that topic, but thanked him instead, "Young Master Wang, thank you for saving me today."
She was genuinely grateful.
If Wang Jingshuo hadn't come, she would have had to accept the favor from Prince Yun today, and she would have been disgusted to death.
Although on the surface we still have to thank King Yun, at least Wang Jingshuo got the majority of it.
Even without Yun Wang's intervention, Ye Zhen was confident he could have dodged the arrow.
After expressing his gratitude to Wang Jingshuo, Ye Zhen turned to Prince Yun and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. Your Highness's injuries are still unclear. I will send someone to escort you back to the city for medical treatment immediately."
Ye Zhen had to suppress the hatred in his heart to speak calmly to the Prince of Yun.
If she hadn't been reborn and learned about her past life, she probably would still have mistaken her enemy for her benefactor.
King Yun is a cunning schemer.
Unfortunately, no matter how cunning he was, he couldn't have foreseen that Ye Zhen was reborn, nor could he have predicted that today's scheme would backfire, as he was essentially handing Ye Zhen evidence.
Yun Wang was indeed clever. Although he did not know that Ye Zhen was reborn, he could tell from Ye Zhen's reaction.
He made a mistake.
Instead of the gratitude he had imagined, he sensed Ye Zhen's hatred towards him.
Yes, he had always liked to observe people from the shadows since he was a child, and he was sure he hadn't misjudged them.
Ye Zhen hated him and even wanted to kill him, although she hid it very well.
He smiled wryly, "I'm just trying to help those in need, but unfortunately, my abilities are limited, and I've only become a burden. I'll have to trouble the princess to call a doctor for me."
If you're wrong, you're wrong.
He never did anything to harm Ye Zhen, and his actions against the Crown Prince back then have been completely erased.
Even if Ye Zhen doesn't appreciate his kindness, the fact remains that he saved Princess Zhaoning of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, and the Marquis's mansion cannot help but owe him a favor.
If Xie Bangruo wholeheartedly helps the Crown Prince when he fights against him in the future, he will be considered ungrateful.
As for his own legs...
King Yun lowered his eyes, a hint of pain in them. Children who are not favored by their parents always have to pay a higher price than others to get what they want.
He had long realized that his father and mother truly favored the Crown Prince. Especially after the Crown Prince's return, although his father tried his best to hide it, sometimes the love in his eyes when he looked at the Crown Prince was almost overflowing.
How ridiculous!
He neglected his own son for the sake of a woman, but instead doted on a stranger.
He even went so far as to provoke a war against his own son in order to protect an outsider, hoping that he and Prince Ning would fight each other.
He didn't want to become the target of public criticism, nor did he want to be the whetstone for the crown prince. He could only break his leg and fade from public view, while secretly plotting his next move.
What his father and the others refused to give him, he fought for himself.
King Yun felt wronged, but he could endure this grievance for the sake of the great cause, and even felt smug about his ability to be patient.
Goujian and Han Xin endured what ordinary people could not, and ultimately achieved great things; so too could he.
But when he was sent to the palace, he saw Xie Tingzhou running anxiously towards Ye Zhen, and after learning that she was alright, he hugged her tightly in his arms.
The Cloud King has broken through his defenses!
