Yun Chu paused slightly, then continued, "Or is it that the Minister is so eager to make a name for himself that he wants to wait here for my father to die so that he can take over this case!"
The Minister of Justice choked, unsure of what to say for a moment.
Yun Lianhua feigned surprise, looking at Yun Chuwei and saying, "Sister, how could you say such a thing? Aren't you worried at all about Father's injuries?"
Xie Sheng chimed in, "I think Yun Chuwei is Yun Zheng's accomplice, which is why she's trying so hard to stop us from interrogating Yun Zheng! Your Excellency, don't waste time talking to her, just take action. Anyone who tries to stop us will be killed without mercy!"
Upon hearing this, the Minister of Justice immediately raised his voice and said, "Men, arrest Yun Zheng! Anyone who obstructs will be killed without mercy!"
In an instant, the guards outside rushed in.
Nineteen asked Yun Chuwei, "Miss, what do we do now?"
Yun Chu frowned slightly and said, "Try to delay as much as possible!"
Once Huo Qingjue receives the news, she will definitely rush here.
Once the Embroidered Uniform Guards arrive, these people will naturally leave!
Xie Sheng seemed to have seen through Yun Chuwei's plan. He said to the Minister of Justice, "Make this quick and decisive. No matter what, we must take Yun Zheng away!"
Only by controlling Yun Zheng can we make him accuse Yun Chuwei.
Once the charge of instigating Yun Zheng to murder his father is brought to light, no one can save Yun Chuwei.
Upon hearing this, the Minister of Justice gave an order, and the officials from the Ministry of Justice pounced on Yun Chuwei and the Nineteenth Prince.
Yun Chuwei drew the soft sword hidden at her waist and began to fight with those people.
Both she and Nineteen were skilled in martial arts. With the two of them guarding Yun Zheng on the left and right, the people from the Ministry of Justice couldn't get close to Yun Zheng at all.
Before long, the people from the Ministry of Justice were lying on the ground.
They weren't dead, but they were injured and lay on the ground groaning.
However, after suffering a backlash from her divination of the nation's fate, Yun Chuwei's physical condition deteriorated significantly. This also meant that she couldn't sustain herself for long in battles.
Her body began to show signs of problems, and her movements against the enemy slowed down somewhat.
Yun Zheng noticed Yun Chuwei's condition and asked, "Little sister, are you alright?"
Yun Chuwei remained silent, composed herself, and continued to block their attacks.
Just then, a long arrow pierced through the air and stabbed straight into Nineteen's chest!
"Nineteen!" Yun Zheng exclaimed in shock!
Yun Chu frowned slightly, barely managing to block the knives of two nearby people for Nineteen.
However, a dozen more people then rushed at them.
Yun Zheng shouted, "Sister, save Nineteen! Stop it all! I'll go with you! I'll do whatever you want!"
At this moment, the man who had shot the arrow outside walked in. He came to Xie Sheng's side and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, our men can't stop them. The Embroidered Uniform Guard will be here soon! The Fourth Prince is coming too!"
Xie Sheng looked at Yun Chuwei, who was supporting Nineteen with one hand and holding a sword with the other, and said, "Take the people with you and retreat immediately!"
So, the people from the Ministry of Justice helped Yun Zheng up and hurriedly walked out.
Yun Chuwei did not stop her. She dropped the sword in her hand, took out a pill from her bosom, and fed it to Nineteen.
She could guess that Xie Sheng took Yun Zheng away so that Yun Zheng would accuse her.
Therefore, Yun Zheng is not in immediate danger.
However, the nineteenth year was different.
He was shot in the chest with an arrow; if he didn't receive timely treatment, he really would die!
At this moment, Guiyan rushed in with the doctor.
"Young Miss, the doctor is here!" After saying that, she pushed the doctor to treat Nineteen's injuries.
While the doctor was treating Nineteen's injuries, Guiyan said remorsefully, "Miss, I'm so sorry, I didn't dare come in when I saw that scene. I..."
She went to ask the housekeeper for help, but the housekeeper told her not to get involved in the matter.
The steward said that His Highness the Crown Prince and the Minister of Justice only wanted to take the Second Young Master away.
After all, the second young master injured the Marquis.
He added that His Majesty had met with the young lady just two days ago and had even dispatched the Embroidered Uniform Guard to protect her. No matter how much trouble those people caused, they wouldn't dare harm the young lady.
There was nothing she could do but go and fetch the doctor. She thought that if the young lady was injured, the doctor could treat her.
Yun Chuwei smiled at Guiyan and said, "You did a great job. In the future, if you encounter something like this again, you should protect yourself first, just like you did today!"
Guiyan doesn't know martial arts. If she rushes in and something happens, she'll be in even more danger than Nineteen.
The returning geese nodded with tears in their eyes.
At this moment, Huo Qingjue led his men and rushed in.
He knelt down in front of Yun Chuwei almost immediately and said, "Your subordinate is late, please punish me, Miss!"
Yun Chuwei glanced at Huo Qingjue and saw that his hair and clothes were somewhat disheveled and that he was stained with blood.
The same goes for the Embroidered Uniform Guards who were with him.
Clearly, they had also gone through a fierce battle.
That makes sense. Since the Crown Prince is determined to have Yun Zheng, he would definitely send people to intercept Huo Qingjue and the others on the way.
Yun Chuwei said slowly, "Get up! This is not your fault!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Qingjue stood up.
He looked at Yun Chuwei, who was covered in blood, and asked, "Is Miss injured?"
Yun Chuwei shook her head slightly: "I'm fine! They didn't dare to hurt me!"
Although those people attacked her, they didn't dare to actually hurt her.
Those who fired the arrows only dared to aim at Nineteen, not at her.
After all, she is now under the protection of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. If the Crown Prince and the Minister of Justice harm her without any evidence or reason, they will not be able to explain it to Emperor Tianqi.
Huo Qingjue breathed a sigh of relief.
He received the message and immediately led his men over, but unexpectedly they were ambushed by assassins on the way.
He had tried his best to avoid getting entangled with those people, but he was still too slow.
Fortunately, Yun Chuwei is alright, otherwise he probably wouldn't be able to explain himself to His Majesty.
Yun Chuwei stopped the conversation and said, "Nineteen has been hit by an arrow. Let Jiang Wanqiu take a look at him!"
Although the doctor in the manor was already treating her, Yun Chuwei was still not at ease.
At this moment, Jiang Wanqiu rushed in.
"I am coming!"
Seeing this, Huo Qingjue said to Yun Chuwei, "Miss, you can leave this to Jiang Wanqiu. You should go back and rest for a while!"
Although Yun Chuwei was not injured, Huo Qingjue felt that she was not in good condition.
Yun Chuwei nodded and stepped outside.
As soon as she stepped out the door, she saw Xie Xuan standing there.
Xie Xuan and Huo Qingjue actually arrived one after the other.
He stood outside and did not go inside. However, his gaze never left Yun Chuwei.
As he watched her walk out of the house, he stared at her intently.
Yun Chuwei looked at Xie Xuan, smiled slightly, and said, "Why are you here too? Has Yue Jingsheng finished his interrogation?"
Xie Xuan didn't answer her question, but instead asked, "Are you alright?"
Just as Yun Chuwei was about to say something, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then her vision went black and she collapsed.
Xie Xuan was shocked and rushed over to catch the person in his arms.
