"We didn't. After Leng Feng fought with the assassin, the assassin realized that he was no match and ran away."
"That's good."
"Brother Han, just take good care of yourself and don't worry about anything else."
Feng Minyi and Wang Yiyao comforted Han Zheng and the others and returned to the house.
"Yao'er, please lie down and rest for a while. You've been working hard all night."
Feng Minyi helped Wang Yiyao to the bed, covered her with the quilt, and the two snuggled together.
"Feng Minyi, are you leaving tomorrow?"
"Well, yes, the situation in the south is urgent, so we can't delay it any longer."
Wang Yiyao crawled into Feng Minyi's arms, feeling very reluctant to let go.
She felt very sad in her heart, why did the two of them always get together less and stay apart more, one thing after another.
Just because Feng Minyi is an outstanding person in this era, so many people are targeting him.
Wang Yiyao shed tears silently. She really didn't want Feng Minyi to go to the south so soon, but he was a man who put the people first and could not bear to see the people suffering.
Feng Minyi hugged Wang Yiyao, feeling filled with emotions in her heart.
It seemed to him that time had stopped like this, he just kept holding Wang Yiyao, no one or anything disturbed them, and they lived a life of just the two of them.
It soon dawned, and Wang Yiyao's body temperature gradually returned to normal.
It should be time for the morning court now. Feng Minyi is going to the south for an expedition, so there is no need to go to the morning court.
In the court hall, the emperor told what happened last night.
"My dear friends, the two guards in the sky prison were killed last night. When my imperial guards arrived, the assassins had already escaped. There is no clue yet."
When the emperor said these words, he looked at King An. He did not show any nervousness, but looked at the emperor very naturally.
"Imperial brother, you are okay. Since this is the case, it is better to take more precautions. If you don't mind, I am willing to send some guards to protect your safety."
The emperor didn't expect that King An still had this hand. He wanted to kill Feng Minyi but also wanted to plant people around him. This plan was really good.
In this way, the emperor was more certain about the purpose of King An's return this time. He came here for his throne. It seemed that he had accumulated a lot of strength and troops on the border over the years.
"Thank you very much, Sixth Brother. I will keep your kindness in mind. However, Commander Wu has sent extra manpower to protect my safety, so I won't bother Sixth Brother."
King An's plan didn't work this time, and he was very unhappy. He originally thought that his plan was about to be half successful, but he didn't expect that something unexpected happened and he had to start all over again.
Then the emperor began to talk about the candidates to pacify the south. Everyone was talking about it, but still no one took the initiative to ask for help.
The emperor laughed loudly from above, "Hahaha, dear friends, don't be embarrassed, I already have a candidate."
When everyone heard that the emperor had chosen a candidate, they were happy but also a little worried. They were worried that the emperor would send them there, but they would be in trouble. The rioters seemed to be desperate for their lives. There were many dangers in going this time.
It's all a matter of not being able to come back.
"Okay, you don't have to find reasons to refuse. I chose King Donglin to go there this time, which can be regarded as giving him a chance to make meritorious service. He came to me specifically to discuss the matter that day. This was a unanimous decision between me and the Queen Mother.
.”
When everyone heard that this was the Queen Mother's idea, there was no more suitable candidate than Feng Minyi.
No one said anything, "What do you think?"
"All ministers will obey the emperor's will."
The emperor looked at King An and said, "Where's the sixth brother? I don't know what you have to suggest."
King An quickly showed his humility in his clothes and said, "I listen to the emperor brother. The decision made by the emperor brother and the queen mother is a good one. The second brother has many experiences in pacifying bandits, so it is most appropriate for him to go this time.
"
"Okay, King Donglin will leave as soon as possible. I asked him to return home last night to prepare, so we all are waiting for the good news. Everyone knows the strength of King Donglin."
"yes."
When King An heard that the emperor said that he had released Feng Minyi last night, the hatred in his heart almost burst out from his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it so that the emperor could not see it.
After the morning court, he returned to his mansion. King An had an angry look on his face. Gu Li saw that his expression was wrong and quickly stepped forward to ask.
"My lord, what's wrong with you? Has something happened to the emperor?"
King An suddenly slapped the table, then stood up, picked up the dagger and chopped off a flower branch.
Gu Li was not surprised. She had followed King An for so many years and knew his temperament very well.
"My lord, please don't be angry. Please tell me quickly so that I can help you sort it out."
"Hmph, the emperor released Feng Minyi last night. He only told everyone about it this morning at court, saying that he wanted him to go to suppress the riots in the south."
Gu Li suddenly understood that King An was angry because of this incident, because he missed the opportunity to kill Feng Minyi.
"Your Majesty, if this opportunity is gone, we will have another time. Don't you be too anxious?"
King An was not relieved by Gu Li's persuasion. He was a little impatient. He had waited for so many years and it was enough.
"I have endured it for so many years at the border. Now I have had enough. I wish I could kill the two brothers all at once, but I didn't expect that they would fool me. It's really abominable."
"Your Majesty, we still have a chance. The riots in the south are also a good opportunity. It's normal to encounter some accidents on the road. Also, the situation over there is so bad that it's normal not to come back. He's coming east.
The king is not a victorious general, how can he come back victorious every time? What do you think? Your Majesty."
After hearing Gu Li's words, King An immediately felt better, "You are such a powerful woman. I thought I missed the best opportunity, but after hearing what you said, the opportunity in front of me is also very good."
Gu Li watched flatteringly as Prince An came to him and acted coquettishly. She gently held Prince An's shoulders and leaned close to his ear, "Your Majesty, this slave was born to make you feel good?"
A man couldn't resist such an action, and with Gu Li's pretty face, Wang An picked her up and brought her to the bed. After a while, the two of them began to discuss detailed countermeasures.
"Your Majesty, we can divide the people into two groups and ambush all the way on the road to assassinate Feng Minyi. Where is the other group? We can go to the south and infiltrate the rioters, so that we don't have to worry about not being able to kill him. Just tell his fate.
No matter how big you are, you can't escape this disaster."
