In the end, the sense of responsibility to protect the spirit soldiers of Zhenguo overcame the hatred for Ling Jiuchuan and the curiosity about Shu Kui.

Shang Mo let the remaining eight whips rise into the air again, shooting at Xiao Qiu's hand with the hook, and at the same time, the whip head and handle split up and down, hitting Xiao Qiu's knees and ankles.

Xiao Qiu raised Erlang's knife, gently and skillfully blocked all the whip bodies, raised his leg and kicked the whip head and handle, and stretched out the hook to Shu Kui, trying to hook her to his side.

Shang Mo was close at this time, and he was about to grab the hook with his bare hands, but he was hit on the elbow by the handle of a knife, and his whole arm was immediately numb and lost his strength.

"Majesty!" Yun Jingli screamed.

And Gardenia Jin, who was pushed away, had already gotten up, ran back, dragged Shu Kui behind him, and took out a long sword out of nowhere, three swords, and the sword pointed at Xiao Qiu's vital point.

Xiao Qiu got the hook, seeing that there was Shang Mo on the left and Gardenia Jin on the right, if he wanted to take Shu Kui away again, it would inevitably be another vicious fight, so he didn't want to fight, and he had the idea of retreating.

"Your Majesty, do you want it?" Yun Jingli was worried about Shang Mo and came over in a panic.

Xiao Qiu's eyes lit up, he took the Erlang knife, stepped out of the diagonal stab, stopped Yun Jingli and carried it on his shoulder, and rushed towards the direction of the palace wall.

All the people who could move hurried to chase after him, but Xiao Qiu was extremely fast, and it didn't take long for him to jump onto the palace wall.

"Miss Fangyun come down!" Gardenia Jin flying body is a sword.

Xiao Qiu resisted with a mourning hook and easily knocked her to the ground: "Shang Mo, if you still want this girl from the Yun family, this evening, go to Xianyun Town and exchange Shu Kui." If she doesn't want it, I'll leave her a whole corpse and return it to the Yun family. ”

After speaking, a snow-white thing roared towards Shang Mo.

Shang Mo raised his hand to take it, and found that it was the whip that had been taken away just now.

"I don't want bird feathers, I'll give them back to you." Xiao Qiu smiled and jumped off the palace wall.

Yun Xue's guard is the loyal dog of the Yun family, and when he saw that his master was captive, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he also jumped on the wall one after another.

But outside the wall, the two have disappeared, and there is no trace to follow.

"Let's disperse, I can't catch up." Shang Mo put away the nine-section whip.

The crowd couldn't, so they had to go back.

"What time is it?" Shang Mo asked Gardenia.

"It's almost three o'clock." Gardenia raised her wrist to look at her watch.

"Take Shu Kui back, let her sleep for a while, get up at seven o'clock to prepare, and at nine o'clock, the ceremony will be rain or shine." After Shang Mo finished the order, he took the lead to leave.

"Isn't he going to take care of Yun Jingli?" Hearing that the wedding was as usual, Shu Kui was a little surprised.

Gardenia shrugged and said "I don't know" again.

Shu Kui saw that there was blood at the corner of her mouth, and one arm kept hanging down when she walked, and couldn't help asking, "Are you hurt?" Is it strict? ”

"It doesn't matter." Gardenia wiped the bloodstains, "When you lie down, I'll go to the medical officer to see, it's no big deal." ”

Hearing this, Shu Kui didn't say anything more.

The two returned to the room in silence and were greeted by Wan Er.

Shu Kui's relationship with her was not as good as before, so he still didn't say a word and went into the bedroom by himself.

"Who's coming?" Wan'er followed up.

Shu Kui shook his head: "Turning into Xiao Qiu's appearance, no one can see who it is." ”

"What about strength?" Wan Er was quite interested.

"Shang Mo can't beat him, let alone Yun Xue's guards, he can't pick him up three times." Shu Kui took off the clothes that had been half-covered on his body, and was so tired that he didn't bother to wash his face, so he put on his pajamas and lay down.

Wan'er cleaned up his dirty clothes, looked up again, and heard a soft snoring sound from the bed.

Shu Kui really fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow, and slept very sweetly, when he woke up, he saw that the blackout curtains in the room were tightly drawn, and he thought he was just taking a nap.

Get up and look at the clock—half past ten.

She was stunned, thinking that she had read it wrong, or that the clock was broken.

Walking out of the bedroom, Gardenia was not there, only Wan'er was alone, cleaning the floor.

"Is it really half past ten?" Seeing that the wall clock on the wall of the living room also showed this time, Shu Kui was quite strange, "Why didn't anyone call me?" Didn't you say that you get up at seven o'clock to prepare, and the ceremony begins at nine o'clock? ”

"Rescheduled." Wan Er stopped what he was doing.

"What?" Shu Kui was stunned again.

"The ceremony has been rescheduled." At this moment, the notice has been sent throughout the entire Three Frontiers, and it is precisely because of this that Guan Er did not go to call Shu Kui to get up early in the morning.

"Why?" Shu Kui was simply surprised and delighted.

"Madame Yun has been here." Wan Er said lightly.

"When did you come? What are you here for? "This, Shu Kui didn't expect.

"Come and ask for your daughter." Guan Er only heard, "I don't know." ”

As she was talking, Gardenia pushed the door in, and Wan'er immediately turned to her: "Hey, Your Highness wants to know why the ceremony has been rescheduled." ”

"Madame Yun has been here." Gardenia is the same sentence.

"Didn't Shang Mo originally say that the ceremony was rain or shine? Why did Mrs. Yun reschedule as soon as she came? Shu Kui really wanted to thank Yun Jingli's mother in person and give her a big hug.

Gardenia Jin asked Shu Kui to sit down, and then told what had happened before.

In the early hours of the morning, not long after Shang Mo returned to the room, someone came to report that Mrs. Yun asked to see her.

Shang Mo had already expected this, wiped his face, cheered up, and came to the main hall.

Mrs. Yun was waiting there: "Your Majesty, what's going on?" How did Li'er get captured by the Assassins? ”

Shang Mo sat down on the throne and said tiredly, "I asked Gardenia to borrow Yun Xuewei from her, and she probably followed her to the battlefield and let the assassins capture her." ”

"Isn't there anyone to protect her?" Mrs. Yun gave birth to six sons, and finally got a daughter, who is beautiful and cute, and has been a pearl in her palm since she was a child.

"It was a mess." Shang Mo didn't bother to explain.

"Yunxue is guarding, Gardenia is here, Your Majesty is also here, no matter how chaotic it is, how can you not even look at a big living person?" Madame Yun was anxious.

After a long time of all-out fighting, after experiencing the gains and losses of the spirit soldiers of the Zhenguo, Shang Mo was tired and depressed, and he didn't want to say much, so he ordered to call Gardenia Jin and let her tell Mrs. Sùyun what happened.

Gardenia Jin has followed Shang Mo since he was a child, and he is his cronies, so he naturally knows what to say and what not to say, so he picked out some major ones, and focused on describing the strength of the people who came, emphasizing that he robbed the national treasure that had been missing for nearly a thousand years.

"So, you wanted to save Li'er?" Mrs. Yun looked at Gardenia.

"Yes." Gardenia replied with a lowered hand.

"And before that? How did Li'er get caught? Lady Yun asked again, "Where were you when the Assassin wanted to capture Li'er?" ”

"Miss Yun saw that Her Majesty was injured and wanted to come over to check, but halfway through, she happened to be intercepted by the assassin." Gardenia only answered half of the answer.

"Were you beside that mortal then?" Mrs. Yun knew everything.

Gardenia hesitated for a second and answered "yes".

"I heard that the assassin originally wanted to take that mortal, but you stopped him from him, so he turned to Li'er, didn't he?" It seems that nothing can be hidden from Mrs. Yun.

Gardenia Jin looked at Shang Mo and didn't squeak.

"Isn't it?" Madame Cloud raised her voice.

"Yes." Gardenia whispered.

"If you don't stop it, Li'er won't fall into the hands of the Assassins." Madame Yun's voice trembled slightly, "For the sake of a mortal, you have disregarded my daughter's life and death. ”

"That's the place she shouldn't have been." Shang Mo spoke, "We didn't care about her life or death, but it happened suddenly, and everyone was caught off guard." In addition, the assassin is too powerful, Yun Xue's guards are not vulnerable at all, I was slightly injured, even if I am with Gardenia, I can't catch up, I can't beat it. ”

Madame Yun exhaled deeply and tried her best to calm herself: "What are you going to do now?" ”

"After today's ceremony, go to Xianyun Town." Shang Mo said simply.

"There's still a wedding ceremony?" Mrs. Yun was very displeased, and she couldn't care that it was the king of a country in front of her, "Please cancel the wedding ceremony and take someone to set off immediately." ”

"The wedding is such a big event, and it has been prepared up and down for a month, how can you say that it will be canceled." Shang Mo was not happy either.

Mrs. Yun has her own words: "No matter how big the wedding is, it can't be more than human life, not to mention my daughter, it's just an ordinary person, who has been kidnapped, and Your Majesty should do her best to rescue it." ”

"Don't worry, of course I'll do my best to rescue." Shang Mo rubbed his temples, "Okay, let's go rest." ”

"Your Majesty, please cancel the wedding ceremony." Without a clear answer, Mrs. Yun will not give up.

"The wedding ceremony is simple." Shang Mo sighed lightly.

After looking at him for a while, Madame Yun said, "If His Majesty insists on holding a wedding today, there will be rumors in the market that His Majesty will be indifferent to watching the assassins kidnap Li'er in the name of protecting mortals in order to get rid of our Yun family. ”

Shang Mo opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Mrs. Yun.

She continued: "Our Yun family is acquainted, since His Majesty doesn't want to associate with us, then, I will build my family master and shift the focus of business to the more wealthy Kui Xian or Shengze." ”

Hearing this, Shang Mo frowned tightly.

In the Three Frontiers, the Yun family is one of the top five wealthy families, and their industries are all over the Three Kingdoms. The master of the Yun family is an honest, soft-hearted and good person, and he misses the old very much, so although the business in Youlan is not as good as in the other two countries, he is still reluctant to leave his homeland, and while sending a large amount of taxes to Shang Mo every year, he will also pay tribute to some novel and valuable things from time to time, just asking Shang Mo to take more care of his daughter.

Compared with Master Yun, Mrs. Yun is more like a shrewd businessman, she will not turn a blind eye to the laziness of her subordinates, nor will she be angry with the old master who pleads for intercession in the hope of continuing to pay on credit, and at the same time, she basically decides where to invest her assets, so in fact, the real boss of the Yun family's business should be Mrs. Yun.

Now, what worries Shang Mo the most is not that the Yun family will not pay so many taxes, but the rumors in the market that Mrs. Yun said.

If such rumors do spread, the good image he has built up with great difficulty will be shaken, and then, afterwards, the wedding will also become a proof that he is a selfish person who puts his own affairs first.
