Sheng Nuan returned to the room and soon learned from the customer service that Mu Fuling had drugged Yan Jiangxuan and invited him to the study to discuss the suppression of bandits.
This is simply a deliberate attempt to create opportunities to be alone and wait for Yan Jiangxuan's medicine to take effect...
Just when Sheng Nuan was hesitant to go out and take care of that obscene thing, the customer service told her that Yan Jiangxuan was back.
"He told Mu Fuling to come back and settle you first."
Sheng Nuan immediately became extremely vigilant.
Yan Jiangxuan knocked on the door and came in. He was met by Sheng Nuan, who was staring at him with a guarded and unkind expression.
Thinking of what happened last night, the corners of his lips curled up: "Don't be afraid, I won't touch you today."
Sheng Nuan hehe: "I'm afraid? Try touching it again."
Yan Jiangxuan lowered his eyes and smiled softly: "You should rest first tonight, I have something else to do."
Thinking that he was going to see Mu Fuling, Sheng Nuan frowned, paused for a moment and finally said, "Is there anything wrong with you?"
Yan Jiangxuan hummed: "What?"
"Forget it, it's okay. It's just that Mu Fuling doesn't have a good reputation. It's said that he likes people like you. You'd better be careful."
She took out a porcelain bottle and threw it over: "This is an antidote. Generally, it can dissolve poisons, aphrodisiacs, or anything else. You should take it just in case."
When he felt something was wrong, he knew to take medicine.
Yan Jiangxuan's eyes flashed softly, and he stretched out his hand...
But just when Sheng Nuan thought he was about to pick up the porcelain vase, Yan Jiangxuan was caught off guard and suddenly ducked beside her.
It was already a moment too late to take action. The back of her neck went numb, her vision went dark, and the moment she fell softly, there was only one thought left in her mind: This bastard!
Yan Jiangxuan succeeded in the sneak attack, took the person into his arms, lifted him up and put him on the bed. When he stood up, he finally couldn't help but lower his head and peck the lips.
Even though I almost knew what kind of person he was last night, and I was so angry with him that I gritted my teeth, I still worried about his safety.
Yan Jiangxuan knew how much of this worry was because she wanted to use his hand to protect the Sheng family... But it didn't matter.
In the end, she will only be his...
After tucking in the quilt, Yan Jiangxuan leaned over and kissed her lips again before standing up: "Seventeen."
A black shadow floated in front of me.
Yan Jiangxuan said quietly: "No matter what happens, you are not allowed to leave her side for even half a step."
The shadow guard in black bowed: "Yes."
Yan Jiangxuan pushed the door open and went out. Outside, Pei Jing stood in the corridor holding a knife.
After looking at him, Yan Jiangxuan said quietly: "Protect the princess."
Pei Jing clasped his fists: "Yes."
The next moment, Yan Jiangxuan turned around and walked slowly towards Mu Fuling's study.
Sheng Nuan fell into a drowsy sleep, but her sleep was restless because the sounds of killing and crying could be heard in her ears.
The entire Mu Mansion was in chaos...
The guards of the Mu Mansion were not weak, but the cries came from inside the mansion. When the guards rushed into the inner courtyard, the entire Mu Mansion was in chaos. People were crying and running away everywhere, and there were blood-stained corpses everywhere.
"It's a water bandit, a water bandit from Lintian Island."
I don't know who shouted, and the yard suddenly became more chaotic...
It wasn't until the Mu soldiers from the military camp quickly arrived and invaded Mu's mansion that everything finally calmed down.
Mu Fuling came out with blood stains all over his body and a sword in his hand, his face full of murderous intent and his eyes split open: "They are water bandits from Lintian Island!"
"I'm going to destroy them! I'm going to destroy them!"
The Mu family's army was also shocked by the tragic scene, and soon learned that most of the Mu family's family members were killed by water bandits.
The eldest son and the second son were killed, leaving the third son, who was less than five years old, being protected by his biological mother and hiding under the bed...
Mu Fuling's eyes were filled with blood: "Immortal Lintian Island, I, Mu Fuling, swear not to be a human being!"
All around, the Mu family troops all raised their arms: "Destroy Lintian Island! Destroy Lintian Island!"
Everyone was filled with hatred and wanted to attack Lintian Island immediately and cut the water bandits into pieces.
No one knows that among the corpses piled up in the Mu Mansion, the one with a bloody and unrecognizable face is the real Mu Fuling...
When Sheng Nuan woke up, it was already broad daylight. The Mu Mansion was completely deserted, and the servants all looked sad.
The customer service staff was speechless: "He didn't want you to see him going on a killing spree in the Mu family. It was too bloody."
Sheng Nuan said nothing.
In fact, it can be imagined... There is no way to seize power and revenge without bloodshed, not to mention that Mu Fuling was once the protégé of Yan Jiangxuan.
In Yan Jiangxuan's case, he deserved to die.
Yan Jiangxuan's shadow guard disguised himself as Mu Fuling and sent Mu Fuling's five-year-old son and his wife back to his hometown on the grounds of protection.
And now, the Mu family army is getting ready to go and suppress the bandits.
Originally, outsiders didn't know the location of Lintian Island. Even if they knew, it would be difficult to get through the fog outside the island, but Yan Jiangxuan had water bandits in his hands.
Because of this, just one day later, the Mu family's army attacked Lintian Island and destroyed the water bandits' nest.
A few days later, the news came back to the capital, and everyone knew that it turned out that His Royal Highness Prince An, who was attacked on the river, was not dead. He was rescued, and together with Mu Fuling, the commander-in-chief of Yunzhou, they annihilated the people who were entrenched in Yunzhou.
Water bandits.
In the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Chu swung the teacup off the table with a cold look on his face.
In fact, the Emperor of Chu also sent people there, but those water bandits took action first... But I didn't expect that the evil bastard was so lucky that he actually made a contribution.
Then he saw Mu Fuling's confession, which said: The stolen tax money was not found on Water Bandit Island.
In other words, two hundred thousand taels of silver just disappeared.
However, the elimination of a major cancer in Yunzhou is barely good news.
While everyone in the capital was in various moods, on the other side, King An's official ship returning to the capital was escorted by a group of Mu family troops and sailed upstream along the river towards the capital.
But no one knew that the man and woman in the cabin of the official ship were not Mr. and Mrs. An, but substitutes found by the Shadow Guard.
Sheng Nuan and Yan Jiangxuan took the land route in a carriage under the escort of a team of shadow guards. Bayi Chinese website
Emperor Chu had arranged the manpower when he came, so he didn't know that there would be no changes when he returned.
They pretended to be ordinary people visiting relatives. The carriage looked very plain and simple from the outside, but it was very spacious and luxurious inside.
Sheng Nuan was lying there covered with a quilt and sleeping. When she woke up, she opened her eyes and saw Yan Jiangxuan sitting next to him, leaning on the small table and reading a book.
She closed her eyes and turned over holding the quilt.
"Are you awake?" Yan Jiangxuan asked.
Sheng Nuan ignored her and continued to pretend to be asleep, but the next moment, she felt light on her body, and Yan Jiangxuan stretched out his hand and hugged her directly into his arms.
Sheng Nuan was about to kick the person, and then heard Yan Jiangxuan say leisurely: "Yan Beiheng is going to grant marriage to Xiaojiu and your brother."
Sheng Nuan was stunned and immediately confirmed with the customer service. Then she learned from the customer service that Emperor Chu had indeed made this plan.
Although Emperor Chu only mentioned it to the eunuch in charge beside him, it was like chatting.
But she knew that this possibility was very high.
She also knew that Emperor Chu's actions did not mean that he wanted to let go of the Sheng family. On the contrary... he was probably planning to kill the Sheng family.
The marriage grant was just a pretense, a pretense to make the Sheng family relax their vigilance, and then be cut down by him with a sword.
Seeing her expression, Yan Jiangxuan knew that she realized what the marriage agreement meant.
"What are your plans, Princess?"
Yan Jiangxuan spoke warmly.
Seeing his hypocrite look now, Sheng Nuan couldn't help but think of his obscene ways, but now she needed to take advantage of the situation and could only resist the urge to beat him up.
What are your plans?
If the king wants his minister to die but the minister does not want to die, then the only way left is to rebel.
However, the Sheng family army is far away at Yumen Pass. Even if they defect, going all the way to Yumen Pass will be full of dangers.
If you bring too many people, it will be too conspicuous to hide, and if you bring too few people, your safety cannot be guaranteed. Besides, there is also Sun Lanyi to settle down. In short, it is full of difficulties.
Looking up and meeting Yan Jiangxuan's calm and leisurely eyes, Sheng Nuan was silent for a moment, then resisted the urge to hit someone and forced out a friendly and flattering smile: "The little girl is stupid, please give me some advice."
As soon as he finished speaking, his waist tightened, and Yan Jiangxuan took him into his arms again.
Sheng Nuan gritted her teeth: "You..."
Yan Jiangxuan: "Do you still want to listen to my humble opinion, Princess?"
Resisting the temptation to break the hand that was clasped around her waist, Sheng Nuan clenched her fists and took a deep breath: "You said..."
