Reborn to be without his father but with his son, the prince shouted, "I'm not dead!"

Chapter 15 Assassination
"Master Wei, if you have anything to say, just speak slowly. We are listening."

Ji Anyu picked up the chopsticks, took a bite of meat, and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.

Wei Luoyan felt deeply neglected and he suppressed his dissatisfaction.

"Ji Anyu, where did you go last night?"

Ji Xiuxu saw that Wei Luoyan was still testing his daughter, and his anger surged again.

"Master Wei, I see that you are seriously injured. Why don't you stay here to recover and we return to the capital first?"

"no!"

Wei Luoyan refused without thinking. If they didn't go together, he would have no chance to kill Ji Anyu.

Ji Xiuxu snorted coldly: "Do you want us to wait until you recover before returning to Beijing? Your injury will take more than half a month to heal, and we don't have time to stay and accompany you to recover."

He suddenly thought of Wei Luoyan's possible plan and continued to speak to block his way.

"Wei Luoyan, don't even think about coming to the capital with us with your injuries. If your father sees you like this, not only will he make trouble at the Duke's Mansion, but it will also cause him to become ill. Aren't you filial? Since you are filial, you should think about him, recover from your injuries, and then return to the capital. Don't let your parents worry."

Ji Anyu was amused by Ji Xiuxu's words. Before her father broke up with her, his words were quite to her liking.

Wei Luoyan's face turned pale. Regardless of Ji Xiuxu's presence, he stared at Ji Anyu and spoke directly.

"The child is not mine."

Ji Anyu clenched his chopsticks tightly, his expression expressionless, his eyes revealing confusion.

"Who is Young Master Wei talking to? Dad, is Young Master Wei married? Does he have a child?"

Ji Xiuxu took a deep breath and glared at Wei Luoyan suddenly.

"What nonsense are you talking about! You are a grown man but you are so petty. You are deliberately slandering my daughter just because of a hairpin."

He lost his appetite all of a sudden and slammed his chopsticks heavily on the table.

"Anyu, give him back his hairpin. It's a piece of junk! The Duke's Mansion has many hairpins that are better than this! We will go back to the capital now."

In order to irritate Wei Luoyan's eyes, Ji Anyu deliberately wore a hairpin on her head.

As soon as Ji Xiuxu finished speaking, she quickly took off her hairpin and threw it to Wei Luoyan without any reluctance.

"Who cares! You're just being stingy!"

The hairpin hit Wei Luoyan's chest and then fell on the quilt.

Wei Luoyan lowered his eyes and took a look, and was so angry!

He said patiently, "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

His voice trembled slightly with anger, and he tried to control his anger and keep his tone as steady and gentle as possible.

"For my father's sake, please don't be angry, Duke. It's getting dark, and there are many wolves on the road. If you want to leave, you should wait until tomorrow morning."

When mentioning Lord Nan, Ji Xiuxu's anger subsided a lot, and he didn't want to have a bad relationship with Lord Nan's Mansion.

"Alright."

He looked at Wei Luoyan's pale lips and couldn't help but preach.

"My dear nephew, forgive me for being blunt, but you are so young and act so rashly. I'm afraid you won't be able to make any progress as an official in the future. I hope you can cultivate yourself and calm down."

"Thank you, Duke, for your advice." Wei Luoyan nodded repeatedly, looking like a man who knew how to correct his mistakes.

As soon as Ji Anyu and Ji Xiuxu left, Wei Luoyan's face darkened.

Was he really wrong?
The child is a thorn in Ji Anyu's heart. Whenever she mentions the child, Ji Anyu becomes emotional and can't control her tears.

Now Ji Anyu didn't react at all, as if the person he mentioned was unimportant.

Wei Luoyan let down his guard and collapsed powerlessly on the bed.

They are exactly the same people, but the things are different.

He remembered that in his previous life, when the Duke brought Ji Anyu back to Beijing, one of Ji Anyu's legs had been broken.

But Ji Anyu's legs are still intact.

Shuda glanced at Wei Luoyan's dark face and said cautiously, "Sir, the doctor said you are injured and should eat something light. I have asked someone to cook some porridge. Do you want me to bring it to you now?"

Wei Luoyan ignored Shuda and thought for a while before speaking.

"Let's do it once and for all! Late at night, let our people pretend to be robbers and kill Ji Anyu."

The deep and hoarse voice was filled with murderous intent.

Shuda was shocked: "Ah? Young Master, think twice. If the Duke finds out that we blatantly killed his daughter, how are we going to explain to him?"

Wei Luoyan narrowed his eyes, his fierce look filled with murderous intent.

The decline of the Duke's Mansion is a good thing for him. The Queen doesn't like relatives who are of no benefit to the Prince.

His Yunchu would not be forced to marry the prince.

"What should I tell Ji Xiuxu? Humph, what does he have to do with me?" Wei Luoyan said in a cold voice.

Shuda was stunned.

The young master wants to kill the Duke as well!
Our Lord Nan would not agree that the young master would kill the Duke, and he would not be able to escape the punishment.

"Sir, the Duke is an official appointed by the court after all, and he also works for the Crown Prince together with our Lord Nan. If the Crown Prince knew, Lord Nan would have a hard time. How about trying another method? Anyway, there is still a long time to live, so there is no need to rush."

Shuda actually wanted to say that it would be better for them to wait until the prince ascended the throne before taking action, but Wei Luoyan's face became increasingly gloomy, so he did not dare to say it out loud.

"I can't wait!" Wei Luoyan said upset.

Now things are developing in a direction that he is not aware of. The longer it is delayed, the more likely it is that something will change.

"Go and arrange the people. I want to see their heads tomorrow!"

Shuda had no choice but to agree.

……

After washing up, Ji Anyu lay down on the bed. She was disturbed by the matter of her child and tossed and turned in the quilt.

If Ji Yunchu hadn't drugged her, nothing would have happened between her and Wei Luoyan.

Wei Luoyan's mind was a mess. In order to test whether she was reborn, he even said that the child was not his.

Recalling Wei Luoyan's expression, how could a disgusting person like Wei Luoyan admit that he had done something wrong.

There must be something fishy if you admit your mistakes easily.

Ji Anyu got up, quietly opened the window, and saw that the number of guards outside Wei Luoyan's house had increased.

He didn't sleep late at night, walking around with a sword in his hand, looking at her from time to time.

Ji Anyu felt a pang in his heart and quickly closed the window.

She put on her clothes, thought for a moment, put on the bag containing dry food, and then went to find Ji Xiuxu.

"Miss, it's so late, why aren't you sleeping..." Daduan asked in confusion.

Ji Anyu said seriously, "Is my father asleep? I have something important to ask him."

Daduan was stunned for a moment, and seeing Ji Anyu looking as if facing a great enemy, he realized the seriousness of the situation, and quickly came to his senses and took Ji Anyu to see Ji Xiuxu.

"Anyu, what's the matter?"

"Dad, I saw Wei Luoyan's guards outside the house, all holding swords, looking at us fiercely. I was so scared that I couldn't sleep."

Ji Anyu worriedly asked, "Are they going to assassinate us?"

Ji Xiuxu frowned, "Don't talk nonsense, those are guards, they won't do anything reckless."

The Duke's Mansion and the Nanhou Mansion are in the same camp, so even if it's just a small fight, they won't order an assassination.

"But there are more guards than before, and I haven't even seen some of them." Ji Anyu silently added fuel to the fire.

Ji Xiuxu was silent.

Even the secret guards showed up, something was wrong.
