Chapter 144: The Book-Traveling Person in the Rebirth Novel 5
Surrounded by a domineering aura, Ling Mo regained his composure. When he looked up, he met a pair of eyes as deep as ink.

She swallowed, still trying to figure out why he saved her and what she should say, when suddenly there was a sound of fierce fighting outside the carriage.

"Release Brother Ling!"

The male protagonist's voice sounded outside.

Ling Mo's eyes flashed and he looked outside.

He didn't notice the white strip of cloth slightly exposed because of his messy collar.

woman?

Not only is she only twenty years old, but she is also a woman?!
Wei Fuyi hadn't felt surprised for a long time.

He subconsciously loosened his hand and pushed the person away, but he failed to control his strength and knocked the person to the ground.

Pursing his lips slightly, he coldly turned his gaze outside. Through the gap in the carriage curtain, he saw a group of people in black clothes fighting with the guards of the Regent's Palace.

Ling Mo rubbed his arm and knew without looking that it was bruised.

But now was not the time to pay attention to these small details. She looked up at Wei Fuyi, a serious look flashing in her eyes: "You are not here to capture me, you are here to lure out the King of Chu."

As I said, she was just a small aide. As the pinnacle of power in the Xia Dynasty, dignity and pride were his basic qualities. Why would he go to so much trouble just to capture her?

"No." Wei Fuyi smiled lightly, without any emotion, "I want to catch you."

Seeing Ling Mo's disbelieving look, he lowered the corner of his mouth and said, "Sir, you are very talented. I have learned a lot from you in the past two years. There is no need to underestimate yourself."

"I would like to thank Your Highness for your attention." With a cold sneer, Ling Mo sat back down.

The sounds of fighting outside gradually faded away with the sudden arrival of the Regent's secret guards, and finally returned to silence.

"Come on, go out and see your master."

After the Regent finished speaking, he took the lead and walked out by pulling aside the curtain.

Ling Mo followed closely behind.

What he saw was Xiao Ningzhou kneeling on one knee, being restrained by two martial arts masters, and he had to bow his head and kneel in front of the Regent.

"Isn't this His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu? Why did you suddenly stop my carriage?"

When Ling Mo heard the Regent's first words, his face fell.

"Even if you are a member of the royal family, you cannot escape the punishment of the law for openly assassinating the regent of the current dynasty."

The most lawless people will use the law to deal with their enemies.

Ling Mo sneered.

Wei Fuyi tilted her head and looked at her, "What advice do you have, sir?"

"It's dark at night. How can you be sure that he must be the King of Chu?"

Ling Mo looked back indifferently, and there was a long silence.

The Regent waved his hand, and the people around him stepped forward and came in front of Xiao Ningzhou.

Her hands groped around his face.

Nothing was touched.

The guard shook his head at the Regent.

"Take him to the prison of the Ministry of Justice and bring him before His Majesty for questioning tomorrow morning."

Wei Fuyi glanced at Ling Mo, thinking that she was just saying such ambiguous words because she was defeated.

But to be on the safe side, there was no need to go to the Regent's Palace. He should be sent to the Ministry of Justice immediately to let everyone see the face of the King of Chu, thus confirming his crime of assassination.

Something suddenly flashed through his mind and he paused in his movement to get into the carriage.

The moment he raised his eyes, his gaze was sharp. He turned his head and stared at Ling Mo who was standing outside, his tone was filled with hidden meaning: "You said that on purpose, do you want me to send him to the Ministry of Justice prison?"

She smiled slightly: "The Regent is worrying too much."

Although her palms were slightly sweaty, she stood tall in front of him without showing any sign of timidity.

In a short moment, Wei Fuyi thought a lot. She said that on purpose, wanting him to send the man to the Ministry of Justice.

Or was it to make him outsmart himself and think he had figured out her plan and brought her back to the Regent's Palace?

If it was to get him to send the person to the Ministry of Justice, then it meant that there were people from the King of Chu in the Ministry of Justice who could rescue him.

If it is the second type.

He originally wanted to bring the person back to the Regent's Palace first, but just now because of Ling Mo's words, he had the idea of sending him to the Ministry of Justice Prison first.

Why bother?
and so.

She wanted him to send the person to the Ministry of Justice as soon as possible.

It seems that the Ministry of Justice needs to conduct a thorough investigation. The person who could rescue the King of Chu right under his nose must not be a small official.

But now——

"Take them all back to the Regent's Palace."

Wei Fuyi continued to walk into the carriage.

Ling Mo was asked to get off the carriage by the guards who came forward, and was secretly escorted back to the Regent's Palace together with Xiao Ningzhou.

After being imprisoned in the dungeon of the Regent's Palace.

Ling Mo and King Chu sat together.

"Why did you say that on purpose in the carriage?" Xiao Ningzhou was also puzzled.

Ling Mo looked around, worried that there were ears on the other side of the wall, and wrote on the palm of his hand.

The Regent is a suspicious, cruel, and cold-blooded person who has killed countless people. If he imprisoned Your Highness in the dungeon of the palace, you would be severely beaten if not killed. So I wanted him to send Your Highness directly to the Ministry of Justice Prison, so that at least you would suffer less. However, I didn't expect that he guessed my intention.

Ling Mo lowered his head and wrote down each stroke carefully.

Xiao Ningzhou's eyes were originally on his palm, but he suddenly caught a glimpse of something and asked in confusion: "Brother Ling, are you injured?"

Ling Mo was puzzled.

"No ah."

"Then why do you have a bandage on your chest?"

Like a bolt from the blue, Ling Mo looked down at the slightly loose collar. From the top down, he could see a hidden corner of the bra.

She instantly thought of the unexpected hug in the carriage.

Xiao Ningzhou could see it even though they were not very close to each other. At that angle, the Regent must have been able to see it more clearly.

Thinking of how he suddenly pushed her away, Ling Mo's guess became more certain.

"Oh, I forgot I was accidentally injured a few days ago. The injury has healed a long time ago, but I forgot to remove the bandage."

Xiao Ningzhou frowned slightly: "Not changing the medicine and bandages is not good for the wound to heal. How can Brother Ling be so nonchalant?"

Ling Mo just wanted to fool the male protagonist quickly, so he said: "I must pay attention next time, Your Highness Prince Chu, let's think about how to get out."

She forced herself to change the subject, but a sense of uneasy emptiness welled up in her heart.

She couldn't be so unlucky that her identity would be discovered by the Regent. Based on her understanding of him, she would definitely be manipulated by him to negotiate terms.

Steal the seal of the King of Chu? Set fire to the King of Chu's palace? Or threaten to make a puppet of the King of Chu and prick him with a needle?

Ling Mo's mind was in a mess, and he rejected all the escape methods proposed by the King of Chu.

"Mr. Ling, the prince wants to see you."

Wei Fuyi's personal bodyguard and servant, Alai, appeared at the door of the cell in the underground prison. Except for being a little friendlier towards Ling Mo, his attitude towards others was completely different.

"What do you want to see him for?" Xiao Ningzhou subconsciously stood in front of Ling Mo and looked at Alai with a frown.

"This is not something you, a prisoner, should know." Alai spoke ruthlessly to others.

"I also want to ask, why do I need to see him?" Ling Mo asked.
