Chapter 186 Blocking the Road



Yu Tanqi saw that Jiang Shi looked very cool when wielding a spear, but she couldn't see herself wielding a spear, so she couldn't help but imagine that she looked very heroic when wielding a spear.

So that day, she returned to her boudoir and asked Linlang and the other two who had been watching from the side, "How do you think I look when I wield the spear? Is it pretty?"

Linlang and the other two couldn't help laughing when they saw the girl's face full of "seeking praise" expression.

Linlang: "Of course it looks good."

Taohua nodded in agreement: "Miss, you are very good at using the spear."

Dan Hua thought about it and followed suit, "For Miss, you've only been learning for a few days and it's already very good."

Their praise was not enough until Jiang Shi also praised her.

"Tan Qi is amazing. He has learned so much in just a few days. With time, he will become more and more proficient in using the spear. By then, he will be very heroic and majestic."

Yu Tanqi was truly happy and had the motivation to learn how to use a spear.

She imagined herself as Yunying, a female jungler in her favorite game. Yunying's weapon was a spear, which was very cool.

Although she did not have the grand wish to defend the capital, she had the wish to protect the people she cared about, just like Yunying's childhood sweetheart.

She didn’t understand how to play the jungle role in the game, but with Jiang Shi’s guidance in real life, she thought she would be able to learn it.

However, the peaceful days of learning to shoot were broken again after only half a month.

That day, Jiang Shi did not return at 10:00 p.m. He sent a message to Yu Tanqi, asking her not to worry. He was only taken to the Dali Temple on suspicion of "murdering the envoy of Tianqi".

How could Yu Tanqi not worry?

"These days, apart from studying at the Imperial College, he's been practicing his spear and reading at the Marquis' Mansion. He hasn't been anywhere else. How could he possibly have murdered the Tianqi envoy? Someone must have wrongly accused him for no reason."

The messenger said, "The Tianqi envoy said that their people were captured and tortured by Crown Prince Jiang. They asked about the Tianqi Crown Prince. After they finally escaped, their Crown Prince was murdered. So they went to Your Majesty and accused Crown Prince Jiang of being the mastermind."

The man who put the incense in the bathroom escaped?

Yu Tanqi couldn't help but frown, instinctively feeling that it was impossible.

With Jiang Shi's intelligence and ability, there was no way he would let such a person leave Wu'an Marquis Mansion alive.

However, Yu Tanqi was not sure whether Jiang Shi was the one who murdered the Tianqi envoy.

The original novel did not mention this visit by the Tianqi envoy.

But no matter whether Jiang Shi did it or not, nothing can happen to him.

Yu Tanqi asked, "Is the eldest prince of Tianqi dead or something?"

"The Crown Prince of Tianqi is said to be seriously injured."

This is said to be very interesting.

Yu Tanqi sneered: "If he's not dead, then it's fake. He must have staged this to frame the prince."

Although he knew that this was Wanjin Kingdom and Jiang Shi could not be framed successfully, Yu Tanqi couldn't help but feel worried and nervous when he looked at the dark sky.

Who knows if anyone will take advantage of this frame-up to make things worse?

Yun Xuan must be watching closely in the dark.

The evening is cool.

Yu Tanqi got on the carriage, left Wu'an Marquis Mansion, and headed for the Dali Temple.

The carriage suddenly stopped while it was on the way.

Coachman: "Miss, there is a carriage blocking the way."

Yu Tanqi frowned slightly, "Whose carriage is this? We can give way to it."

She didn't want to waste time on the road.

"Is the girl from Chenjun in the carriage? " The young man's deep and magnetic voice suddenly sounded outside the carriage.

Yu Tanqi was startled, his whole body tensed up, and he subconsciously clenched his sleeves.

"My surname is Yun, and I'm Yun Shu's older brother. I've met Miss Yu before. Does Miss Yu still remember me?"

It was indeed Yunxuan.

Yu Tanqi secretly thought that this was not good.

She almost immediately thought that Jiang Shi was framed and Yun Xuan was probably responsible. Yun Xuan must have deliberately stopped her at this time, probably wanting to attack her.

what to do?

In public, Yun Xuan shouldn't be so brave as to kidnap someone, right?

Yu Tanqi calmed himself down, did not lift the curtain, and just sat in the carriage to reply to Yun Xuan.

"I remember, but I have something important to attend to right now, so I won't be reminiscing with you, Your Highness. Could you please let me go?"

"I know what you are doing, and maybe I can help you."

"No, thank you. Uncle Yang, can you please keep going?"

Yun Xuan naturally heard the rejection and resistance in Yu Tanqi's words and raised his eyebrows slightly. The carriage behind him was still parked there. If he didn't ask to make way, Yu Tanqi's carriage would not be able to pass.

Uncle Yang glanced at Yun Xuan and said in embarrassment, "Miss, Prince Yun's carriage is in front, we can't pass."

Yun Xuan just stood there, not saying a word, with an indifferent expression, looking like someone who was difficult to talk to.

Although the young man was dressed in a brocade robe and looked noble and elegant, Uncle Yang felt that compared to the gentle and kind Prince Jiang, this Prince Yun was too arrogant. How could a man from a respectable family openly stop the carriage of a noble lady who was already engaged on the road?

He definitely has ulterior motives.

It's really frustrating.

Yu Tanqi took a deep breath and then sighed.

"What do you want me to do to make way, Your Highness?" She controlled her tone and tried to be as calm as possible.

"I want to help Miss Yu. Could you please get out of the car and talk to me?"

Yu Tanqi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and finally lifted the curtain and got out of the car.

There was still a trace of sunset glow in the sky, the clouds were thick, and the stars began to twinkle. The moment the girl lifted the curtain, she revealed a fair and charming little face. Yun Xuan seemed to see a delicate but not coquettish lotus in the water.

The evening breeze gently blew up the girl's green skirt, like the green lotus leaves in the water swaying gently.

"Your Highness." Yu Tanqi bowed and saluted.

Her eyes were always looking downwards, like an ordinary lady from a wealthy family, not daring to look up at him.

However, Yun Xuan had seen the look in her eyes when she looked at Jiang Shi, so serious and focused, as if he was the only one in her eyes.

She would also look at others, with a sweet and bright smile on her palm-sized face, which made people smile.

She just didn't want to look at him.

Yun Xuan looked at Yu Tanqi, his eyes dim and his voice low, "This isn't the place to talk. Miss Yu, could you please go with me to the restaurant's private room to discuss this?"

"No." Yu Tanqi refused without a second thought. "Men and women should not touch each other. Your Highness and I are not related in any way. I'm sorry I can't go to the restaurant's private room with you. If Your Highness feels it's inconvenient to talk here, we can talk about it next time."

Yun Xuan raised an eyebrow and said cryptically, "Miss Yu, aren't you afraid it will be too late next time?"

He paused. Dusk was falling and there were fewer people on the streets, but there were still pedestrians and patrolling officers and soldiers. There were some things he really couldn't say.

The young man in brocade clothes lowered his eyes slightly and spoke earnestly, "My sister is eager to make friends with Miss Yu. Before leaving the capital, she asked me to take good care of Miss Yu and Prince Jiang if possible. Now that Prince Jiang is in trouble, I naturally cannot sit idly by."

It sounds like the truth.

If Yu Tanqi hadn't read the original novel, he would have almost believed it.
