Mrs. Leisurely

Chapter 24
Not a moment later, a man in black appeared in front of them. He landed silently, obviously with extremely high martial arts. "This subordinate has seen the Pavilion Master and Madam." The man in black saluted respectfully.

"This is the leader of the 72 hidden guards in Youran Pavilion, Feng Lin." Zhong Liyu explained softly to Zhanyan.

Zhanyan nodded, he should have known that he has many capable people under his command, just Qing Xian who is driving the car, his martial arts are not to be underestimated, not to mention that this is the leader of the hidden guard of Leisurely Pavilion.

"You send Prince Xiyuan to the post station, and send someone to protect him, and don't let him have any accidents in Dongling." Zhong Liyu took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a black pill, and stuffed it directly into Yang Rui's mouth.Yang Rui was seriously injured, if he didn't get treatment in time, his life might be lost. Fortunately, he met Zhong Liyu and the others swimming in the lake, so he was destined to die.

"Yes, young master." After speaking, he picked up Yang Rui, and instantly turned into a black dot, disappearing from their sight.

"I'll take you back first, and then enter the palace." Zhong Liyu pulled up Zhanyan and walked to Chaoying.

"Okay." Zhanyan said softly, no longer in the mood of swimming in the lake.

Zhong Liyu didn't come out of the palace until the evening, obviously this incident was very troublesome, after all, something happened to Prince Xiyuan in Dongling, and Dongling was responsible for it.And even if someone is sent to investigate, it will be found that the person who assassinated Prince Xiyuan was also from Dongling, because there is no evidence to prove that the Thousand Poison Sect is controlled by Xiyuan people.Obviously, this is a game deliberately set up by someone to provoke a war between the two countries.Just, who is the mastermind of this matter?Could it be King Xiyuan?Thinking of this, Zhanyan couldn't help but feel a little chilled. It is said that the current king of Xiyuan, Yang Yuxiong, has great ambitions. He has never concealed his ambition to fight for world hegemony since he took the throne ten years ago, but Yang Rui is his own son, so he will be so ruthless. ?Obviously, if the mastermind behind this incident is King Xiyuan, then Yang Rui, the prince of Xiyuan, has already become the abandoned son of King Xiyuan.

On the side of the post station, Yang Rui woke up leisurely, thinking of everything before he fell into a coma, he felt chills all over his body.Those who assassinated him were none other than Xiyuan's hidden guards of the imperial family. He was very familiar with their martial arts moves. Those hidden guards were arranged by his father to sneak into Dongling five years ago.Unexpectedly, in order to fight for world hegemony, he would even abandon his own son. He always knew that he was dissatisfied with himself because he had no ambitions and only wanted to govern the country well. The heir of Tu's ambition, so as to help him achieve the goal of unifying the world.

"Brother Prince, are you awake?" Princess Birou was standing by the bed, and when she saw Yang Rui woke up, she said in surprise.He has been in a coma for most of the day, Birou is very worried, after all Yang Rui is her elder brother, and her worry about him is real.

"Birou, I guess our trip is more ominous, you have to be careful." Yang Rui said in a deep voice, looking at his younger sister, a flash of pity flashed in his heart. Ever since the death of their mother, they lived relatively well in the palace. It's difficult, in order to win the favor of her father, she worked hard to learn various skills, and only then did she have the talent she has today. Her father asked her to come to Dongling to marry her, thinking that she valued her. It's just a pawn.

"Brother, why did this happen?" Princess Birou burst into tears. She is not stupid. As soon as Yang Rui mentioned something, she understood that except for the father, who would dare to let them have an accident in Dongling? would be so silly.

"Birou, he doesn't love his mother, the person he loves is always Concubine Liang, so the heir he chooses is always Concubine Liang's son. It should be enough for him to endure us for so many years."

"Brother, why, he is our father." Birou couldn't accept this cruel fact, her heart ached beyond her control.

"If we are lucky enough to survive this time, you must find a man who loves you." Yang Rui patted her head with distressed eyes.

Birou nodded, and threw herself into Yang Rui's arms. Fortunately, she still has an older brother. At this moment, she realized that in this world, only her own brother is the only person who truly treats her well.The matter of being rejected by King Chun the night before seemed to have become unimportant.

"Brother, what should we do now?" Birou calmed down, knowing that the only important thing right now is to save her life.

"Don't be afraid, no matter what, I will protect you well. At present, our negotiation with Dongling will fail. It is estimated that within three days, the news of Prince Xiyuan's assassination in Dongling will spread throughout Xiyuan. At that time, he will There is a reason to send troops to attack Dongling." Yang Rui said worriedly.He remembered what the woman said, that only in a peaceful and prosperous age can there be a beautiful hometown. It seems that the homes of the people are hardly like what she sang in her song.

"Then shall we go back?"

"We can't go back. We can't go back to Xiyuan. When we came out this time, we took too few people with us. They might have been killed before we reached Xiyuan."

"But the father has found a reason to raise the army, why do you want to kill us all?" Birou didn't understand, is the father so cruel to them?

"Father won't, but someone will."

"You mean Yang Qi?" Princess Birou's face turned pale. Yang Qi is the son of Concubine Liang, and the most beloved son of his father. It is impossible for him to let their brother and sister return to Xiyuan alive.

"Let's live here first. There are people from King Chun to protect us here." Yang Rui said calmly. He has been a prince for 20 years, and he is not a waste.

"Prince Chun?" Princess Birou exclaimed, is that god-like man sending someone to protect them?
"Fortunately, I met King Chun, otherwise I would have been sent to hell today. Birou, don't think about him, it seems that no one else can get in between him and that woman." Yang Ruirou persuaded Birou, but Only he himself knew that when he said this, his heart was aching.

"Brother, don't worry, I know." For King Chun, it might just be the girl's worship of heroes, but now, she is no longer allowed to think about it.

"It's best if you can figure it out." Yang Rui touched her face, and the pain in his eyes was undisguised. No matter what, he would not let anyone hurt his sister. This is what his mother confessed before she died. Ask him to protect her well.

It was very late that Zhong Liyu returned to Lixiangyuan. When he walked into the room, he saw his wife holding a book and quietly flipping through it.He walked up to her gently and pulled her into his arms.

"Why are you still not sleeping?"

"I was waiting for you, but I saw that you didn't come back, so I couldn't sleep." I don't know when I developed a habit, and when there is no one around me, I feel empty and can't sleep.

"Are you hungry? I ordered the kitchen to prepare supper, do you want some?"

"Okay, you can eat with me." He just felt warm in his heart. It turned out that it felt so good to have someone waiting at home.
