Chapter 142: The Book-Traveling Person in the Rebirth Novel 3
As I was packing my things, there were three long and one short knocks on the door.

Ling Mo walked to the door and opened it, and a carriage stopped at the door.

A man dressed as a servant stood respectfully beside the carriage with his head lowered.

The King of Chu wanted to see her about something.

Ling Mo is very familiar with a set of procedures.

Whenever the King of Chu took the initiative to look for her, he would send a carriage over.

"Let me change my clothes first."

"As soon as possible sir."

Ling Mo heard his answer, glanced at him, nodded, and closed the door.

The moment the door closed, her face turned cold.

If the person outside the door is not one of the King of Chu's men, then it can only be the Regent's men.

This time he found her so quickly, which must have cost him more resources than before.

She had neither an official position nor financial power, yet the powerful regent of the Xia Dynasty wasted so much manpower and resources. There was probably only one possibility - he was really irritated by her.

But last time, she just pulled out the general he had planted in the Huben Army camp based on the plot clues, to prevent that general from whispering to Zhang Zhi about discord and choosing to stand on the side of the Regent.

The severity of the incident was not as serious as when she placed people in the Regent's Palace, and that time he just sent a few more assassins.

There was no time to figure out why. Ling Mo's eyes fell on the half-opened box in the yard, with regret in his eyes.

……

"He actually burned down the yard and the things he made." Wei Fuyi always had great emotional fluctuations because of the little mouse raised by the King of Chu.

It’s not that it’s very big, but compared to him, he seemed calm even when killing people and threatening people, the tone of voice would be much more fluctuating every time we talked about this person.

……

"You should stay in my palace."

Xiao Ningzhou knew what Ling Mo had been going through in the past few days and couldn't help but persuade him.

The two of them were now sitting in a pavilion by the lake, enjoying the spring breeze blowing across the lake.

"...This is the only way for now." Ling Mo still felt that his life was more important.

"But please prepare a yard far away from you, Your Majesty."

Ling Mo added, thinking that if he stayed in the hospital, it wouldn't bother the heroine.

"Brother Ling, what do you mean?" Xiao Ningzhou was confused.

"I don't want the future Princess Chu to pull my hair and beat me," she joked.

Looking at the young man in blue opposite him, with his delicate face, an appearance that would not look out of place even if he was dressed as a woman, Xiao Ningzhou actually agreed with him for a moment.

I wanted to nod, but when I came to my senses, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Brother Ling, are you making fun of me or yourself?"

"Your Majesty is intelligent, and you should know that both are true."

The two have known each other for two years. In his early years, the King of Chu loved making brothers in the martial arts world. Ling Mo is now both his adviser and his good friend.

The two of them would occasionally joke around and the atmosphere was friendly.

They returned to business.

"The Regent King is suddenly biting me now, probably because he knows that I gave you the position to raise his troops." Speaking of this, Ling Mo's face was solemn.

"There are spies around you, and we need to investigate thoroughly.

"The people we sent to check the training ground will arrive in Wucheng tomorrow, but since the Regent already knows that the training ground has been exposed, they will probably come up empty-handed."

The King of Chu could naturally think of this, but after hearing Ling Mo's words, his face involuntarily turned cold.

"I'm afraid they won't be able to come back," he added.

Ling Mo pursed her lips. Although she was familiar with the plot, some things would inevitably change when she intervened, and she would have to constantly fight wits and courage with the villains. Really, if it weren't for the fact that she was an illegal resident in ancient times, she would never have chosen to find the male protagonist to be an aide.

Now she has to be on guard against villains every day, fearing that the vicious regent in the book will kill her in her sleep one day.

"We can get back." Ling Mo looked at the ornamental fish swimming in the pond, "We can go by water."

There is a big river running through Wucheng where the troops are stationed, just one mile away from where the Regent is training his troops.

...Regent's Palace, study.

"Block the waterways and strictly check every passing ship." The man's deep voice sounded.

...Prince Chu's Palace, a small pavilion by the lake.

Xiao Ningzhou frowned: "How could the Regent not have thought of this? I'm afraid he will block the waterway."

Ling Mo shook his head: "They are not sitting on the boat, but on the bottom of the boat. Yu'an Trading Company once bought the ship manufacturing drawings I have, and those ships all have dark rooms on the bottom."

...Regent's Palace, study.

"Ling Mo is a man of strange means, and he is a master of mechanical devices. All carriages and ships must be strictly inspected. If anything wrong is found, they will be dismantled directly." Wei Fuyi's tone was cold and flat.

...Prince Chu's Palace, a small pavilion by the lake.

Xiao Ningzhou was still worried: "What if he forcibly destroys the ship?"

Ling Mo looked arrogant, and calmly picked up a piece of cake and put it into his mouth: "Unless you are a martial artist with deep internal strength like the prince, no one in this world can forcibly break what I made."

...Regent's Palace, study.

"If they can't be demolished, they will be detained." Wei Fuyi's mouth corners slightly raised, "No, all those with problems will be detained and sent back to Kyoto."

It's time to meet this Mr. Ling, who was able to dodge so many assassination attempts by the people he sent out and even helped the King of Chu deal with him.

With such knowledge and strategy, he must be an old man over 70 years old.

...Prince Chu's Palace, a small pavilion by the lake.

"It takes five days to travel all the way from Wucheng to Kyoto by water. What if they just stay in the dark room to eat and drink?"

"There are dry food and water in it, which can last for up to ten days."

Xiao Ningzhou finally felt relieved and smiled at the boy opposite him: "Brother Ling always has a plan for everything."

"Your Highness, you are too kind." Ling Mo smiled modestly and looked him in the eye. "It's just that Wei Fuyi is a ruthless person. When fighting against a killer who would rather kill than let go, I have to leave some ways to retreat, just in case."

"With Brother Ling's help, the century-old foundation of my Xia Dynasty will definitely not be destroyed by the treacherous minister Wei Fuyi." The King of Chu laughed heartily, and his disguised bookish aura dissipated, and his underlying character was still the young hero in fine clothes and riding a fierce horse in the world of martial arts.

Ling Mo couldn't help but think of the heroine who returned home from the martial arts world. According to the timeline, she has been reborn for three days.

“Your Majesty, Zhang Zhi has only two daughters. Although he was born into a military family and is rude and impolite, he loves his two daughters very much.

"Especially Miss Yanran, who is heroic and skilled in martial arts, is very similar to Zhang Zhi, so he is slightly partial to the eldest daughter.

"But that doesn't mean Zhang Zhizhi doesn't have any importance in his heart. And it's well known in Kyoto that Zhang Zhizhi loves the Regent."

Xiao Ningzhou thought of the unexpected kiss a few days ago, his face was a little uncomfortable, and he coughed: "I know that Zhang Zhi knew that his second daughter liked the Regent but still did not make his position clear, which shows that he is also dissatisfied with the Regent's perverse behavior.

"I've already contacted Yanran. She's very... ahem, supportive of my stance and said she'll help us persuade her father."

"Praise?" Ling Mo looked at the King of Chu opposite him with a smile, "Your Majesty, you still need to work harder and turn praise into admiration~"

"Brother Ling!" Xiao Ningzhou scolded with a smile, "You, you always have a stern face, as if no one is more serious than you, but sometimes you always make fun of me, and you are not serious when you make jokes.

"I am a prince after all! You are a scholar after all, so you should be more reserved."

Ling Mo: Do I like to keep a straight face and not talk? You ancient people spoke in a very refined manner. If I really gossip a lot, I am afraid that I will be considered a bohemian person in your eyes.

You shouldn't accidentally reveal your true nature.

Ling Mo instantly retracted his smile and nodded coldly: "Your Majesty is right."

When the King of Chu saw her like this, he felt a little choked up.

What should I do if my own staff is too moody? Waiting online, urgent!
