In fact, no matter before or now, Liu Yun has never cared about court affairs. She always only cared about Mu Mansion, and even forgot that her mother's natal family was the powerful Ji family.
Now that she saw these two books in her hand, she suddenly understood why her mother came all the way to marry in Lanyang City. She knew too many secrets, or it should be said that the Ji family held too many secrets. The principle of prosperity must inevitably decline.
My mother has seen through it a long time ago, so she stayed away from the turmoil in the capital.
Liuyun put the booklet in her arms and closed the wooden box. She had a vague intuition that she might need these things in the future. Rather than letting them stay here, she might as well take them back and study them. After all, she still has
It's too weak. It would be a good idea to use Ji's power to become stronger.
She wanted to stay a little longer, but unexpectedly heard the sound of fighting not far away. She couldn't help but frown. It was extremely quiet here and few people came here. How could there be the sound of fighting?
Doubts flashed through her heart, and she immediately left the wooden house, wanting to leave here quickly and not get involved in these Jianghu disputes. Who knew that just when she made up her mind to leave quickly, she suddenly heard a familiar voice, asking her to
Stopped.
Shen Yi.
Even Liu Yun, who didn't want to meddle in other people's business, couldn't hold back his curiosity and cautiously approached the fighting place. He lowered his body and hid behind the bushes, looking out.
Sure enough, it was him, dressed in a dark robe and holding a long sword in his hand. His back was to the bush where Liu Yun was, but even though they were far apart, Liu Yun could still feel the murderous aura emanating from him. It was something she had never seen before.
Yi, the noble prince who has always been elegant and gentle, has never shown such a murderous side.
Opposite Shen Yi, several men in black were also holding long swords. The leading man snorted coldly, "Young Master Shen had better cooperate and hand over the account books our master wants. Maybe you can still escape disaster, otherwise..."
Shen Yi was injured, and the blood stains could not be seen clearly in his dark robe, but Liu Yun could still see Ni Duan from his unnatural movements.
"As long as Mr. Shen surrenders obediently, our master has ordered that we will not embarrass Mr. Shen." The man in black was very patient, with a hint of teasing in his tone, as if Shen Yi, the prey, was bound to be easily captured.
"Then let's see if you have what it takes." Shen Yi jumped up and swung his long sword down, his momentum like a rainbow, and he didn't look like an injured person at all.
The man in black did not underestimate the enemy, and responded quickly to Shen Yi's offensive. Several people surrounded him and attacked each other, and the remaining people were ready to attack him. It was obvious that they were quite afraid of Shen Yi, otherwise they wouldn't
Such a methodical attack.
But in the end, they still underestimated him. Shen Yi's martial arts was not top-notch, but his forbearance and depth made him invincible. After a few rounds of fighting, he found the opponent's opening and struck decisively.
, was ruthless and fierce, leaving no room for error. The man in black who was stabbed by him fell to the ground immediately, but the price he paid was not small. He suffered knife wounds on his arms and back.
"Mr. Shen, I advise you not to resist. We don't want your life." The man in black suddenly spoke up. What he said was indeed the truth. It is common for people to fight and die in the world, but Shen Yi is not.
A man in the world, he is the legitimate son of the prefect. If he dies, the court officials will not let it go.
"If you want what I have, it depends on whether you have the ability." Shen Yi's tone was extremely cold, without giving in at all. This was completely different from the elegant young man Liu Yun knew. The Shen Yi she knew was a knowledgeable person. People who advance and retreat are very self-aware and will never be as aggressive as they are now.
"Since Mr. Shen is so ignorant of current affairs, don't blame us for being rude." The man in black made a gesture, and the man in black quickly adjusted his position. Everyone gripped their swords and worked in tacit cooperation to stab him.
Shen Yi seemed to have expected it, and drew his sword to resist. However, he was seriously injured. After a few moves, even the long sword was knocked off. He knelt down on one knee, holding the wound on his chest, panting. This time Liu Yun finally saw His face turned pale as paper.
Liu Yun, who was hiding in the bushes, clenched her fists. She swore that she had never thought about such a situation today. She hated Shen Yi so much for his cold-blooded ruthlessness, but not as much as she hated Lan Xi and Lin. It was her fault for paying Sincerely, Shen Yi's fault was just that he didn't refuse. He just stood by and watched everything she suffered. But Liu Yun knew in his heart that he might not be aware of all the conspiracies.
She didn't know if she was excusing him. She had figured out some things during this period. In fact, she didn't just hate Lan Xi and Lin. She hated her stupid and infatuated self even more. It was not that she didn't know the use and vanity of others. She only believes that her sincerity can change others. Mu Liuyun is so naive and ridiculous.
The fierce fighting brought back her thoughts. Liu Yun looked nervously at the battle not far away. She could see that they did not want his life, but it was obvious that they were not patient people. Shen Yi was stubborn. This made them very angry, and she could feel the murderous intent of the man in black.
So, should she take action to save him? Liu Yun's eyes fell on the crutch in his hand, he pursed his lips, and there was a war between heaven and man in his heart.
This is not a simple crutch, this is a crutch specially made for her by the machine master of Linyang City. There is a tiny hole at the front of the crutch, which can instantly shoot out several silver needles. The anesthetic on the silver needles can Making the other person unconscious instantly was why she dared to go up the mountain alone. However, she couldn't guarantee how many people she could shoot down. With so many men in black in front of her, as long as one of them didn't fall to the ground, she and Shen Yi would both be the same. There was no way to escape, but it seemed like she couldn't do it with her watching him so coldly.
While she was hesitating, the leader of the men in black had already pressed the long sword to Shen Yi's chest: "We have no intention of embarrassing the young master, as long as the young master hands over what we want..."
"Impossible." Shen Yi flatly refused, narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, and shot out a hint of threat, "You want what I have in my hand, unless I die."
Liuyun stared fiercely, she knew that Shen Yi was serious, but at this time, what she wanted to know more was what was it that Shen Yi had to protect with his life?
While he was talking, the man in black had already taken action with a sneer. This time, Shen Yi could only dodge in embarrassment. He was covered in injuries and lost his previous flexibility.
Seeing that the sword was about to pierce his body, the men in black suddenly stopped attacking as if they were under a spell. They all had their eyes wide open and looked in the direction of the trees in disbelief, but the trees But there was no movement at all. It was not until the men in black fell to the ground one after another and fell into a complete coma that the man in the bushes came out.
"It's you..." Shen Yi covered his chest and frowned when he saw the person coming. He wanted to say something more, but suddenly he lost strength and passed out.
