Chapter 329: Assassination
"There's an assassin!
Butterfly Dance shouted, and immediately pounced on Feng Shanyue. At this time, several more arrows broke through the air, and Feng Shanyue immediately hugged Butterfly Dance back, took her behind the big tree, and hid behind the trunk.
Li Kai and the others have been active nearby, and when they heard the call of the butterfly dance, they had already returned. The well-trained ones did not rush over to protect Feng Shanyue, but left some people to protect Feng Shanyue, and the other part of them had quietly reversed from the direction of the arrow.
Soon, the four black-clothed men were caught out of the woods by them and thrown in front of Feng Shanyue.
Feng Shanyue's face was scratched by the first arrow, and it was hot at this time, and Butterfly Dance was smearing her with medicine. She sat on a stone and looked at the four men on the ground, "Li Kai, ask them why they came?"
Li Kai nodded, waved his hand, and the four special forces carried one of them like chickens, and took them to the side for interrogation. Those few people in black looked tough, but they couldn't withstand the heavy hands of Li Kai and these people, so they quickly recruited.
"Niangniang, they are all earthmen, and they were sent by Princess Yunni to assassinate you. ”
"What? Princess Yunni, not the eldest princess?"
"Yes!"
Feng Shanyue was stunned for a moment, and asked Li Kai to take them aside to take care of them.
Butterfly Dance was already beside her and shouted: "This Yunni princess is simply inexplicable, and she actually sent a killer to assassinate her mother." When the mother returns to the palace, she must tell the king and let him severely punish this daring princess of the earth. ”
Feng Shanyue didn't feel very angry at this time, but she just thought that the news of her return to Yindu was only sent back to Yindu by Li Kai through secret channels and directly into the hands of Ming Zhao. So, how did Yunni know about his return to Yindu, and why was he able to send killers so accurately to snipe him here?
Could it be that the situation in Yindu has changed?
She stood up and looked in the direction of Yin Du, which was already shrouded in darkness, and she could imagine that Ming Zhao might have just come out of the Council Palace at this moment and was about to go to dinner. After dinner, he would be accustomed to walk for a quarter of an hour in the garden outside the Governor's Palace, and then return to the Governor's Palace, where he would continue to attend to state affairs until late in the evening.
Since the succession to the throne, in order to realize his political ideals and ambitions, Ming Zhao has been diligent every day, 365 days a year, and has never slackened. How much he values this country in his heart, Feng Shanyue, who has accompanied him through the past few years, knows best in his heart. Therefore, if his ideals are frustrated because of herself, she really can't bear it.
"Butterfly Dance, you say, am I not suitable for being a businessman?"
Butterfly Dance was busy roasting the hare they caught by Li Kai for her, and she didn't understand it for a while, so she said casually: "What are you talking about?
"I mean, wouldn't it be better for someone to sit in this position?"
Butterfly Dance turned her head to look at her, feeling that her face was a little difficult to see under the background of the campfire, as if she would disappear into the night at any moment.
She panicked in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang, don't think about it too much, it's just a small difficulty now, and you will always think of a way to get through." Moreover, the king would definitely not agree to let Princess Yunni enter the palace, and the slave guessed that if he knew that Princess Yunni dared to send someone to assassinate you behind her back, he would definitely be furious and punish her severely. ”
A princess from Fang Guo can get secret news in Yindu, and she can also send killers to kill herself, which in itself shows that this Yunni princess is not simple. However, Feng Shanyue felt very tired at this moment, and she didn't want to delve into what it meant behind this. She just wanted to return to the palace as soon as possible and return to Ming Zhao.
Thinking of this, she stood up, and Diewu hurriedly grabbed her, "Niangniang, where are you going?"
If she hadn't been held in time, she would have stepped into the campfire.
Feng Shanyue came back to her senses, "I...... I'm fine, I'll go to sleep first!"
Butterfly Dance looked at the freshly roasted hare in her hand, and couldn't say anything to let her eat a little, maybe at this time, sleeping is what Feng Shanyue needs most!
In Yindu, the night is as cool as water.
A shadow stood under the shadow of the tree, looking through the intersecting branches at the shattered moon. A palace maid with a robe in her hand walked up to her and draped it over for her.
"Princess, it's cold night, why don't you go back!"
This person is Yunni, she doesn't look back, just looks at the moon, and doesn't move.
"Princess, the people sent outside the city haven't come back yet, the news has come back, and it will be tomorrow morning at the earliest, so it's better to go to bed early!"
Yunni turned her head and looked at her, "Zixiang, do you think he would be angry if he knew what I did today?"
Zixiang sighed slightly: "Princess, in fact, why are you doing this? You know that his mind is not on you." Now that the queen is discussing with Shang Jun about marrying you, wouldn't it be better to enter the harem of the Great Shang like this?"
"Discussion?" Yun Ni smiled faintly, "It's better to say it's coercion! I heard that the queen mother is already discussing with the elders of the clan, and she must force Shang Jun to open the harem, otherwise she will hold an ancestor worship ceremony." ”
"The slave and maid don't understand Shang Jun's thoughts, isn't this harem full, isn't it a proper thing? Why do you have to go against the queen and the elders of the clan?"
Yun Ni smiled bitterly, if that man was willing to refuse the beauty of the world for her, she would be willing to die for him. It's a pity that he said good things about himself in his mouth, but there was another woman in his heart. Her eyes shrunk, and the corners of her mouth pursed tightly, even if her fate could only become a bargaining chip for the earth to put in Yindu, she couldn't let him get his wish.
"Did you pass my order to go down and kill that woman no matter what?"
Zixiang nodded, "That's how I gave the order to Shirahoshi, he will definitely do his best to complete the princess's mission." ”
Yunni nodded, "I don't know why, I'm always a little flustered." ”
"The princess is just too worried, don't worry, Shirahoshi is the best hand in the earthwork, he will never miss when he leads people to shoot. ”
"That's good. ”
Feng Shanyue woke up to the sound of birdsong in the early morning, and when she came out of the tent, she saw that Li Kai and the others were all ready to go, and it seemed that they were waiting for themselves to wake up.
"Butterfly Dance, why didn't you wake me up earlier?"
"Niangniang had a nightmare in the middle of the night last night, and it was hard to sleep peacefully, and the slave maid wanted you to sleep a little longer. Anyway, it's only half a day's journey to Yindu, and I will definitely be able to arrive today. ”
Feng Shanyue nodded, dealt with the hygiene problem as quickly as possible, and took Butterfly Dance and them on the road.
The group rushed to the west gate of Yindu, it was mid-afternoon.
"What's going on, why are the gates so quiet?"
