Chapter 29
Dong Yuran sneered, put down the curtain and sat down intently.After a while, the car stopped, and Chu Lingyue and Dong Yuran came out first, and then helped Mrs. Zhennan Hou out.Zhennan Hou and Lu Hengtao were both there, and Dong Yan was also there. When he saw Chu Lingyue and looked at a carriage that was completely out of place among the wives following behind them, he immediately understood.

Dong Yan had already met the emperor and experienced the situation of the war. The emperor also said something about his hard work and outstanding military exploits. He had already returned to the palace, and only Li Chujun and a few other princes were left here to greet him.

At this time, Mrs. Zhennan Hou came here just in time to meet with her son, say a few words, and wait for the order of the reward.Even if Li Chujun was serious, he couldn't control his mother and son's narration.

I have been fighting wars abroad for more than a year, and now I am back and not allowed to say a few words, it is too ruthless.

Following Mrs. Zhennan Hou standing in front of all the female relatives, Chu Lingyue began to watch her nose and nose, but no one would let her go like this, "I haven't seen Ling Yue for a long time, but today I look a little thinner, But are you still sick?"

When Li Chujun asked, Chu Lingyue couldn't pretend that he didn't hear it, so he saluted generously before thanking him warmly, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness, Lingyue is fine now."

Li Chujun remembered that Chu Lingyue and Dong Yuran had similar temperaments, but when he saw it today, he was so quiet, and his face immediately turned down.

Soon Li Chujun's face changed, half of it was to show his favor, and half was because he remembered the imperial decree that the emperor had read with him a few days ago.After meeting a cold face, Li Chujun's concern did not diminish at all: "Ling Yue, don't hide it, we are all a family, if someone bullies you, you have to tell your brothers."

Hello brother!In her previous life, she almost lost her mind because of this brother!
In this life, absolutely not!
Chu Lingyue raised her head, with light in her eyes, she looked at Li Chujun and smiled, full of stunning brilliance, "Brother? Second Prince, Ling Yue is just a daughter of the Marquis's House, so she definitely dare not claim such a title. However, His Highness is sympathetic to the thoughts of the orphan, and Ling Yue understands it."

Looking up, Chu Lingyue also found another person.Standing behind Li Chujun was a man with a face like a crown of jade. He had only seen it once, but he couldn't forget it.It was the person who saved her in the restaurant that day, but unexpectedly he was Lord Jingcheng.

"Your Highness has so many younger sisters, just call them, and the emperor will not blame you." Seeing that Chu Lingyue noticed her, Murong Jing smiled. It was really interesting to see her put on airs just now, not at all like that day. The appearance of beating people with teeth and claws under the restaurant.

However, he still didn't hold back his arrogance, otherwise he wouldn't have been so cocky with Li Chujun just now.

The Marquis of Weiyuan used to be a real brother and brother with the emperor. Although Chu Lingyue did not inherit the title, if Chu Lingyue was a man, the title of Marquis of Weiyuan would not fall to anyone else.Therefore, Li Chujun's call of brother today did not make her call wrong.

What is she so awkward about?Li Chujun bullied her?he dare?

I don't know what Murong Jing was thinking, and Chu Lingyue didn't think about it. After saluting, she stood silently and listened silently until the eunuch announced the decree, awarding Mrs. Zhennanhou and other female relatives of Zhennanhou's family. Only then did they leave with the wives.

After getting into the carriage and seeing Li Chujun and Murongjin parting ways, for some reason, Chu Lingyue was relieved.

Lord Jingcheng, Murong Jing, didn't have many memories of him in his previous life. He only remembered that he was a gentle and jade-like man. Eighty if not a hundred letters were handed over, and all of them ended up being muddled and never heard from.

Marquis Jing Cheng is different from Marquis Zhennan and Marquis Weiyuan. Marquis Zhennan and Marquis Weiyuan are military generals, and Jing Cheng’s family is proficient in everything. It is a little shade from the ancestors, and it is his own ability.

At the age of 15, he visited Donglai as an envoy. Before the two armies fought, he was so angry that the coach of Donglai led the army to death, otherwise Dong Yan would not have won Donglai in more than a year.

Now Lord Jingcheng is just 17 years old, and he has already served in the court. Although it is an idle job, it is considered a supreme favor to be able to enter the palace to play chess with the emperor to discuss state affairs from time to time.

As for Lord Hou Jingcheng, as long as his son doesn't poke a hole in the sky, he doesn't care.There was really a hole, and he asked his son to find a way to plug it.

On the way back, Chu Lingyue was much quieter.Dong Yuran and Mrs. Zhennanhou had already gone back, Weiyuanhou's mansion was a little far away, so naturally they were left with Weiyuanhou's mansion in the end.

The carriage drove to the cross street, and after stopping for a while, I heard Lan Xi talking outside, "Miss, the imperial army is investigating, and they say there are assassins, let us wait a moment."

"Assassin?" Chu Lingyue wondered, didn't you feel fine just now, why did you have an assassin in just a while?

"Miss Hui, just now when the second prince returned to the palace, he met an assassin from the Donglai Kingdom. I don't know when the assassin infiltrated the city, but he waited for an opportunity to assassinate the second prince after we left." Lan Xi took out the things he had found out. Having said that casually, Chu Lingyue understood, and nodded her head to signal them to wait for a while.

The imperial army's carriage came one by one to question, and when it was Chu Lingyue's turn to drive, it was already a quarter of an hour later. When he saw the carriage of the Marquis of Weiyuan, Qin Zheng, the commander of the imperial army, asked Chu Lingyue to get off the carriage, "Miss, please." Get out of the car to be interrogated, this is a serious matter, I hope Miss can understand our hard work!"

Chu Lingyue didn't think much of it, and helped Lan Xi's men get off to the side of the road.As soon as he turned around, he saw Lu Mingmei getting off the car, and saw Chu Lingyue standing on the side of the road and hurriedly walked here.

Qin Zheng saw Chu Lingyue, and after bowing his head to salute, he asked her to stand aside, so as not to scare the young lady with swords or something.Chu Lingyue kept her peace of mind and didn't make any trouble. She stood aside and waited for the soldiers of the imperial army to open the curtain and take a good look under the car.

Standing beside the carriage, Lu Mingmei seemed to know about the assassin, her face was a little pale, but she was also a little annoyed when she saw the soldiers of the imperial army overturning the carriage like this: "If you see whose carriage it is, turn it over!"

Qin Zheng clasped his fists together and made a salute, still in the same neither humble nor overbearing gesture, "Weiyuan Marquis Mansion! The whole city is under martial law today, and the emperor has ordered that those who pass by must be strictly interrogated. If anyone refuses to obey, he will be killed in the street!"

Kill with a stick!Lu Mingmei's face turned paler with fright, and she couldn't help but flinch behind Chu Lingyue.Seeing that the investigation was almost done, Chu Lingyue took a step forward to avoid Lu Mingmei, "Your Excellency has worked hard, and today's things are not what you think about. Here are some broken coins, use them to buy a cup of tea for the brothers. This day Cross-examination is not an easy job."

As he said that, he asked Lanxi to take some silver and gave it to the owner of the tea stall next to him.Qin Zheng is a person in front of the imperial court, and he will definitely not accept bribes. If the money is directly given to Qin Zheng, people passing by will definitely have other thoughts when they see it.

But it's been a busy morning, and I haven't found lunch, I can't even drink my saliva, and my body can't bear it.Chu Lingyue's move not only saved Qin Zheng's stigma of accepting bribes, but also solved the immediate predicament, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Touched by Chu Lingyue's kindness, Qin Zheng clasped his fists and thanked Chu Lingyue on behalf of the soldiers of the Imperial Army. This time he was much more sincere, "Miss, go slowly!"

Chu Lingyue got up and got in the car, but Lu Mingmei followed suit, "Sister, I'm afraid..."

On the street, Chu Lingyue couldn't just kick Lu Mingmei down like this, nodded her head and sat inside.Seeing that Chu Lingyue was right, Lu Mingmei hurried into the car, sat opposite Chu Lingyue in shock and asked, "Why isn't sister afraid?"

I have already experienced death, how can I be afraid.Chu Lingyue didn't answer, and Lu Mingmei didn't continue to ask. After the carriage was quiet for a while, it stopped again.

"Miss, run!"

"What's the matter?" Chu Lingyue frowned, something seemed to have happened outside.Lan Xi's scream and the horse's neighing made Chu Lingyue's heart throb.

Lu Mingmei reached out to lift the curtain of the car, but Chu Lingyue tried to stop it but still failed to catch up. Outside the opened curtain of the car, a masked assassin was entangled with the guards of the Hou Mansion. Although the Hou Mansion had many people, But it is not a long-term solution.

Most of the guards in the Hou's Mansion are just ordinary handymen who know how to punch and kick. Compared with the assassins, they are really different. If you count on them, you can only resist them for a while.

Sitting still was not an option, Chu Lingyue sneaked out of the car before the assassin found their whereabouts, Lu Mingmei was frightened but not stupid, she quickly followed after seeing Chu Lingyue get off the car.

There was no sign of Lanxi around, so he must have run to call for help.

"Where are you going!" The assassin's muffled voice could tell that he was not a local. Seeing that they wanted to run, he rushed over after clearing away a few guards with a knife in his hand.

"Ah!" Lu Mingmei screamed. Seeing that the assassin had already rushed over, she pulled Chu Lingyue past him to block it. , but pushed Lu Mingmei away. I don't know if he used too much force, but Lu Mingmei hit his head against the wall and passed out.

Looking at Lu Mingmei who was motionless on the ground, Chu Lingyue didn't dare to be careless, while observing the assassin in front, she slowly backed away.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!" The assassin waved his hand, and it flew to the bluestone wall beside Chu Lingyue's temples.

The tail of the knife was still trembling, and the reflected cold light made Chu Lingyue break out in a cold sweat.

"This good man, I don't know how I offended you..."

"Everyone in the Apocalypse royal family must die!"

The reason for co-authoring is because there is a royal emblem on the carriage of the Marquis of Weiyuan, which gave the assassin the killing intent.Chu Lingyue understood, and quickly showed weakness, "Hero, I'm just a little girl, and I don't know who in the royal family offended you. If you have any grievances, you can tell me, and I can help find someone to replace you." You avenge your grievances."

"Redress for injustice? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child!" The assassin flew up in anger, and stabbed at Chu Lingyue with the dagger in his hand. Chu Lingyue quickly dodged, but the assassin missed a hit, and immediately became even more annoyed.
