Chapter 188 Ambush
The night came into the house, and Yun Shen's room was brightly lit.

"Second Highness, what should we do now!"

Xu Kang was so anxious that he lost weight after a few days. Yun Shen glanced at him and said unhurriedly, "What should I do? Is there anything important here?"

"It...why is it all right?" Xu Kang was so anxious that his forehead was covered with sweat: "Liang Jie often hangs around Sihu's place these days. Isn't this a serious matter? Second Highness, maybe our matter has already been taken care of by others." Noticed..."

Yun Shen lightly raised his eyes, and corrected: "It's not that it's not sure, it's certain, Yun Ting must have noticed it."

At such an urgent moment, Yun Shen is still so leisurely, Xu Kang couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, if the Dong Chuang incident happens, you will not be able to escape the responsibility, now we are all grasshoppers on the same rope, if something happens to your minister, you... "

"laugh."

He suddenly laughed, got up and patted Xu Kang's shoulder, and said calmly, "It's because His Highness is a little dull, I didn't expect such a trivial matter to scare Master Xu like this."

Xu Kang was so vicious that his teeth itch: "Second Highness! This is no small matter! If this continues, I will lose my official position!"

The candle flames were indistinct, he suddenly took off the wrench in his hand, handed it to Xu Kang, and explained very solemnly: "My Highness has a treasure, which was lost, and Master Xu stole it from you."

"This……"

"But Mr. Xu hid this treasure in a place that His Highness will never find in this life. Although His Highness is suspicious, there is no evidence, so what?"

Xu Kang was stunned for a moment and didn't speak, but he heard Yun Shen continue: "The loss of disaster relief money is certainly a big deal, but they don't have evidence, and they can't find the lost money. Rushing to announce it will only make things worse."

"What's more... If they continue to torment, His Highness can beat Yunting and drag Yun Ting into the water, saying that he took the money."

Xu Kang was speechless at such a poisonous trick, but he didn't care much, and sat back in his chair: "Master Xu is still worried now?"

Seeing that Xu Kang was silent, he smiled slightly: "Death and life are trivial matters, my lord, don't forget that we have more important things to do, so we will be scared like this, what should we do?"

"Second Highness..." Xu Kang had some lingering fears: "But...buying and selling officials was only popular in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Now you say that you want to bring this matter to the royal city, I'm afraid it will be risky..."

"How can you get tiger cubs if you don't enter the tiger's lair?" Yun Shen glanced at him: "If you just stick to the old ways, what Mr. Xu can get is just a little bit of petty profit. My Highness is the prince and the heir of the Tian family. Can't I still lie to you?"

As the night was getting darker, Xu Kang pondered for a moment, then said: "If the Second Highness can guarantee that there will be no more trouble in the future, I can consider this matter."

"Trouble?" He frowned slightly: "What does this mean?"

"If Your Highness the Second Highness just keeps getting entangled with Princess Gong and offends Prince Gong, then this matter will definitely be blocked. Your Highness might as well think it over."

"How many lives do you have to intervene in the matter of my Highness?" Yun Shen suddenly became ruthless, and directly threw his finger on the ground: "His Highness has his own plans for the matter of Princess Gong, so you don't need to talk about it. Besides, the one who bought the official It is up to you to release the news, if you don’t do well, just wait for His Highness to deal with you.”

After finishing speaking, he stopped raising his head, Xu Kang was not angry, but he had nothing to say, he could only cup his hands, and then stepped out the door.

In the dark night, he muttered bitterly: "It's just a lowly male favorite, even if it becomes a prince, it's the same lowly!"

Glancing back, Xu Kang walked away without noticing that Liang Jie was staring at him on the courtyard wall beside him, taking a panoramic view of everything...

In the middle of the moon, a group of people from outside the royal city came in a hurry. The son-in-law Jiang Cheng looked at the distant royal city, and thought of his wife and daughter who were waiting, feeling deeply moved.

After riding the horses for a long time, the group was a little tired, Jiang Cheng looked at everyone, and then said: "Brothers, we will arrive soon, let's enter the city gate before the curfew."

"Yes, son-in-law!"

Just as this was happening, many men in black suddenly appeared from the bushes on both sides, all of them covered their faces and held gleaming weapons in their hands, looking menacing.

Jiang Cheng reacted quickly and shouted, "Who are you?"

The only response to him was the slashing of weapons. Jiang Cheng directed the crowd to fight back. These people's moves were fierce. Although Jiang Cheng's men were all soldiers who had been on the battlefield, after all, they had traveled for a long time, and they were already exhausted. Now When they started fighting again, the group couldn't hold on anymore.

Seeing that he was about to fall into decline, Jiang Cheng resisted and pulled up a soldier, but he was accidentally stabbed, his arm was bleeding, but he didn't care, and continued to fight with others.

The gate of the city was suddenly opened wide, and the servants of Princess Changning's mansion came out in a mighty manner. They wanted to take the son-in-law back to the mansion, but they didn't want to encounter this situation and quickly joined the battle.

The men in black saw that the other party was too numerous to win, so they retreated quickly. Jiang Cheng was quick-witted, caught one of them, threw him to his attendants, and ordered them to chase after him.

"My son-in-law, you are injured!"

"No problem." Jiang Cheng stretched out his arm, allowing his attendants to bandage his wound, his eyes darkened slightly: "Take him back, my son-in-law will personally interrogate him!"

"Yes!" The attendant stepped forward to arrest him, but suddenly found that blood was oozing from the corner of the man's mouth, and said in surprise, "My son-in-law, this man committed suicide by taking poison!"

Jiang Cheng's face turned cold, and he took two steps forward to check, the assassin had indeed died.

Who on earth wanted to kill him in such a ruthless way without leaving any traces?

Finally, a group of people returned to the royal city in a mighty way. When Chang Ning heard about this incident, he went out to wait in person. When he saw him coming, he immediately rushed up: "My son-in-law, let me see how bad the injury is. "

Jiang Cheng shook his head, with a gentle expression, he took her hand, "No problem, thanks to you sending someone here, if not, I might not be able to come back today."

Just as she was talking, Xuanji ran forward stepping on her calf, and hugged Jiang Cheng: "Father! You're back!"

He picked him up with a smile, and embraced Chang Ning: "Let's go, let's go in first."

Chang Ning nodded, but kept thinking in his heart. Su Ling repeatedly emphasized that she should send someone to pick up Jiang Cheng. Mention her this way!

If it wasn't because of Su Ling, Jiang Cheng would definitely not be able to return to the Princess Mansion safely. Thinking like this, Chang Ning made a decision, she must tell Yun Ting about it...
