Looking at that man, Yun Yan stared and said in shock: "It's you, what are you doing here? To assassinate Yun Mocheng? Why?"
The man in black looked at Yun Yan in astonishment, and then at the black scarf that fell on the ground. She opened her mouth and stepped back unconsciously. She held her clothes in her hands. Her face was unprecedentedly panicked. She whispered in a low voice,
He shook his head and said: "I, I..."
"Quick, the assassin is right in front, we must not let him escape!" A rapid voice suddenly sounded, followed by another burst of footsteps.
Listening to the voice coming from the front, Yun Yan frowned slightly, pulled the person in front of him behind him, and whispered: "You go and hide in the bushes next to you first."
The man in black was startled, with a tangled look on his face, and she whispered: "I..."
Yun Yan frowned and shouted: "Go quickly! Don't you even listen to my words now?"
Being shouted at like this, the man in black was stunned. She gritted her teeth and ran directly into the bushes.
Knowing that the people behind him were hiding, Yun Yan took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, looked ahead again, and walked directly forward.
The first few people came over with lanterns, and the whole garden suddenly became bright. Looking at the figures in front, one of them immediately said: "Who is in front!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a "thump thump thump" sound of footsteps behind them, and soon a large group of people came up and directly surrounded the people on the garden path.
"What? I'm here and I have to report to you?" Yun Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at the people in front of him with a smile.
After seeing the appearance of the person in front of her clearly, the servants naturally recognized her quickly, and all of them immediately looked respectful.
At this time, He Wen ran to the front. Looking at the person in front of him, he quickly said: "It's the third lady."
Yun Yan smiled lightly, nodded, then looked at He Wen and said doubtfully: "Butler He, what's wrong with these servants? Why are they all gathered here? Isn't today a good day for my sister to get married? They should be in the hall.
Just wait on the side."
With a sigh, He Wen whispered: "There was an assassin who wanted to kill the master just now, so I brought people to chase him." At this point, he looked at Yun Yan and said solemnly, "Did the third lady see you here just now?"
Did anyone in black come over?"
"Men in black? No, I was going to go to the hall to see if there was anything I could do to help. As soon as I got here, I heard you guys coming." Yun Yan said directly, without any trace of emotion on his face.
He hesitated, "By the way, how is he, dad? Is he okay?" She looked concerned, looking straight at He Wen.
Looking at the woman in front of him, her expression didn't seem to be fake. After thinking about it, He Wen said: "Don't worry, Third Miss, the assassin has not come close to me. I am fine."
"That's good!" Yun Yan said with a smile, but a sharp light clearly flashed in her eyes. Is everything okay? It's okay, it's best to deal with the enemy by yourself.
Looking at the front, He Wen yelled at the servants behind him: "What are you doing here? Why don't you go find out the whereabouts of the assassin? If she is let go, you will definitely be left with nothing to eat!" As he said, he
Then he said to Yun Yan, "Miss Third, I have gone to work. The Prime Minister's Mansion is not peaceful tonight. You'd better go back to Suxuan Pavilion as soon as possible."
Nodding, Yun Yan smiled lightly and said, "Okay, I'll take care of the house now."
He Wen continued to walk forward with the servants, searching for the assassin's whereabouts.
When those people walked away, Yunyan turned his head and looked at the trees and whispered: "They have gone far. Come out."
There were a few rustling sounds, and a woman in night clothes walked out from behind the trees. She had a delicate appearance, but when she saw the people standing outside, a complicated look flashed across her face, and she walked
When he arrived in front of Yun Yan, he knelt down on the ground and whispered: "Miss, I'm sorry!"
I'm sorry? Listening to these words, Yun Yan frowned deeply. She lowered her eyes slightly, looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, and asked in a low voice: "Why? Qiu Yuan! Why did you assassinate Yun Mocheng?!"
"Miss, I'm sorry, I hid this matter from you, but I... must kill him!" Qiu Yuan clenched her hands, her eyes looked forward, her body trembled, she gritted her steel teeth and resented
He said, the expression on his face was full of hatred.
Her expression froze, Yun Yan looked at Qiu Yuan in surprise, must she kill him?! How could she not know that she and Yun Mocheng had such hatred? She frowned slightly, raised her hand to help Qiu Yuan up from the ground,
Looking around, she whispered: "This is not the place to talk. You should go back quickly. Staying here will only put you in danger."
"Miss, don't you blame me?" Qiu Yuan stood up, looked at Yun Yan in surprise, and said.
Shaking his head slightly, Yun Yan turned away, looked at the night, and said calmly: "Why should I blame you? I blame you for wanting to kill Yun Mocheng? Or blame you for hiding it from me? If I really want to blame, I can only blame myself, because I obviously noticed it.
I noticed something strange, but I never asked you." At that time, Bishui had already told her about Qiu Yuan's strange behavior after getting the porcelain and jade from Yun Mansion, but at that time she had no time to take care of her. If he had asked her earlier,
Maybe she wouldn't risk coming here today, and she wouldn't be hunted down now.
"Miss, I..." Qiu Yuan wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Yun Yan.
Looking around again, the footsteps did not go far. Yun Yan whispered: "You go back to the courtyard on the outskirts of the city first. I will look for you tomorrow. It doesn't matter if you tell me then."
"Okay, Miss, please take care of yourself!" Qiu Yuan no longer hesitated. She knew that Miss always had reasons for doing things, and staying here now would be detrimental to Miss. She nodded and said. Turning around, she jumped directly onto the eaves.
He looked around and jumped down.
The courtyard instantly fell silent again, and Yun Yan slowly walked forward. Qiu Yuan's attitude toward Yun Mocheng changed because of the porcelain and jade items thrown out of Yun Xiang's Mansion. What tribe did they come from?
Oh, now she is becoming more and more curious. And it seems that Yun Mocheng has some secrets hidden there. Maybe everything will be clear tomorrow.
Yunxiang Mansion, study room
In the room, a middle-aged man in a purple brocade robe was sitting at the top. The expression on his face was even more ups and downs. Looking at the people below, he slapped the table and said angrily: "What's going on? There's not even one person here."
I can't catch you!" Hearing this, He Wen was startled and said quickly: "Sir, please calm down. It's true that the person ran too fast. After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, the area is also large, so it will be difficult for us to find her.
"
With a cold snort, Yun Mocheng frowned and looked ahead, with a gloomy look on his face, "If you dare to assassinate me, I will definitely find her out. You can send more people to investigate.
"
"Yes!" He Wen said respectfully. However, at this time, he thought about it and said: "This is the face towel dropped by the man in black. I found it in the garden." I don't know when, there was a black scarf in his hand.
face towel.
Hearing this, Yun Mocheng raised his eyebrows, glanced at the face towel in He Wen's hand, and said nonchalantly: "What can a face towel mean?"
"It can't be explained normally, but this face towel has a strange fragrance. If I remember correctly, it is made from the unique spices of the Yunhai tribe." At this point, he paused and looked at Yun Mocheng.
Yun Mocheng's eyes sank, as if he thought of something, he said in a deep voice: "Are you sure it is the spice from the Yunhai tribe?"
"Yes, I'm sure!" He Wen said respectfully, looking at the black scarf in his hand. He didn't expect that there were still people alive in the Yunhai tribe. There was no sound in the room for a long time, and Yun Mocheng looked thoughtful. He thought for a while and continued,
"And when I went to the garden to look for this moment, I met the third lady!" At this point, He Wendu paused and looked up at Yun Mocheng.
"Yun Yan?" Yun Mocheng came back to his senses and asked doubtfully, "What does it have to do with her?"
He Wen continued: "At that time, the servant asked the third lady if she could see the assassin running that way, but she told the servant no. Later, when the servant walked back, he happened to see the face towel falling on the ground. That position was
This is where the third young lady was standing at that time. My subordinates suspected that she knew the assassin."
After hearing this, Yun Mocheng's expression froze, his face darkened, and he said coldly: "Really? It seems that she is indeed more powerful than what she thought. Humph, pay attention to her movements. She will
I always feel like there's something going on when I come back, but I don't believe she will really be obedient." He could never forget the hateful look in his eyes when he drove her away.
He Wen nodded and said, "Yes!" He didn't want to doubt her at first, but this matter was not trivial, and he hoped it had nothing to do with her.
Late at night, Xiangtian Palace
The room was filled with silence. A man in a light yellow brocade robe was sitting at the table. His handsome face was filled with a sinister look. He was holding a picture scroll in his hand. The woman in the picture was wearing a lavender dress and her features were like eyes.
The painting, however, the only shortcoming was a thumb-sized birthmark on the left cheek, which was extremely obvious. I don’t know if it was something that affected his heart, but the hand holding the scroll suddenly exerted force, and the place where he held it instantly wrinkled.
Together.
"I am really unwilling to give in! Ha..." Mu Qingyuan said suddenly with a sullen face, looking ahead coldly.
After hearing this, Xiao Yao, who was standing quietly aside, suddenly raised his eyes to look at the man sitting on the seat, and his eyes fell on the picture scroll in her hand. He had been looking at that picture since he came back just now. Come to think of it,
He was still dissatisfied with that incident. He lowered his eyelids and whispered: "Your Majesty, this is what the Queen Mother meant..."
With a sneer, Mu Qingyuan slapped his hand on the table and shouted angrily: "What does the Queen Mother mean?! Ha, in her eyes, I will always be just a puppet, and I can only listen to her words! Even if I marry a woman, I will do it
If you don’t know the master, how can I, the king, be willing to do so!”
Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment and raised his head to glance at Mu Qingyuan. He was clearly a leopard about to go berserk. Where was the calmness and calmness from before? At this moment, it was as if all the depression that had been suppressed in his heart had burst out. Yes
Ah, the second prince is back, and the battle for the crown prince has truly begun. The emperor's attitude towards him has changed, and the Gao family that supported him has also fallen. If there is no support from the queen mother, the consequences will be worrying.
"Your Majesty, if you want this supreme power, you can only rely on the Queen Mother. Besides, it was the Emperor's will for Miss Yun San to marry the Sixth Prince. Now the Queen Mother just wants to advance the marriage." After thinking about it, Xiao Yao persuaded.
.
With a cold snort, Mu Qingyuan frowned and said with an angry smile, "So what? The woman I didn't get was given by Mu Jingnan, how can you expect me to be willing to accept it!"
Is it just because he didn't get it that he was unwilling to accept it? Hearing this, Xiao was stunned. If so, he had nothing to worry about, but for Yunyan, for some reason, in his perception, she was not
A simple boudoir woman always feels that there is something hidden under those smart eyes.
"Fourth Prince, do you know Miss Yun San?" Xiao Yao thought for a while and finally said. He really couldn't figure out why such a cold and distinguished woman would be willing to marry a man again after her engagement was broken off by that man.
It would be normal if she was just an ordinary boudoir girl in Liangdu, but she is not. She is Yun Yan, a woman who is proud and unparalleled just by looking at her.
Hearing this, Mu Qingyuan frowned and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to say?"
"Miss Yun San, do you really want to marry you?" Xiao Yao said with a raised eyebrow.
Mu Qingyuan narrowed his eyes, looked at Xiao Yao, and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean by this? She naturally wants to marry me."
Really? Xiao Yao frowned slightly. For some reason, she always felt like she was approaching the Fourth Prince with a purpose. Last time, the Fourth Prince had a dispute with the Sixth Prince in front of the emperor because of her, and even said that he wanted to marry her!
Although the emperor did not scold the fourth prince after that time, his attitude towards the fourth prince was indeed not as good as before. Moreover, in the end, she was able to get the protection of the sixth prince. Otherwise, the emperor would have killed her long ago. Does this mean that she has a relationship with the fourth prince?
What is there between the Sixth Prince? But it is possible, because she and the Sixth Prince are the same kind of people, both of whom are difficult to see through.
"What on earth do you want to say?" Seeing Xiao's refusal to speak, Mu Qingyuan frowned and asked again.
After calming down, Xiao Yao replied: "Miss Yun San, it may be different from what you want to know."
Different? After hearing this, Mu Qingyuan thought for a while and said with a little disappointment: "She is indeed different from what I thought. If I had known that she was such a virgin, I would not have
I will ask my father to cancel my marriage to her."
"Why would she want to marry you if she is such a virgin? Besides, my subordinates suspect that she and the Sixth Prince..." Xiao Yao looked at Mu Qingyuan and wanted to continue.
Hearing this, Mu Qingyuan's eyes sank, and he interrupted him directly, saying indifferently: "Don't worry, she won't betray me. And Mu Jingnan just wants to use her to attack me." No,
She would not betray him, but the woman from Konggu Orchid was not his after all. However, for the throne, everything was worth it. He could not hesitate at all. Thinking of this, he tore off the scroll in his hand.
, kneaded it into a ball and threw it on the ground. Suddenly, he snorted coldly, his eyes full of viciousness, "If she really dares to betray me, then what awaits her is my king's revenge!"
