Chapter 316: Driven
"Second brother, why are you going, wait for me." The man surnamed Meng also chased after him.
To their surprise, the two of them lost people.
"Second brother, what's going on? Is there a problem? The man surnamed Meng chased after him and asked nervously.
The second brother didn't speak, his eyes were half-squinted, and he became more and more interested in Liu Yunru.
"Let's go, go back." The second brother said.
"What...... Are you kidding me? The man surnamed Meng complained.
It was an air ...... that answered him He didn't linger and immediately followed.
When Liu Yunru returned home, it was very late.
At this time, in King Liu's mansion, Lord Liu was wandering around the main hall with a worried face.
He had sent people out to look for him many times, but they all said that they didn't see his family Yunru.
The maid who came back also said that when they left, they saw Cheng Chuyun and Bai Shuixian, but Liu Wangye personally ran to ask, and there was no whereabouts of Liu Yunru.
He knew that although Cheng Chuyun was a little ambitious, he would not be so good to Yunru, after all, he had been kind to him over the years.
Cheng Chuyun learned that Liu Yunru had not returned yet, and he was also very worried about him in his heart, he thought that Liu Yunru would not be able to think about it because of the day's events.
But he did think too much, Liu Yunru was not as cheap as he thought.
Liu Wangye rejected Cheng Chuyun's kindness to come together to help find Liu Yunru, and left in a hurry.
In fact, he was not so kind, the main thing was that he was uneasy, he was afraid that if Liu Yunru really had something, then he would never have a chance to get the secret recipe, and it would be difficult for his father to explain it.
Liu Yunru knew that her father was worried and anxious, so she immediately trotted in and said breathlessly, "Daddy, I'm back."
When Liu Wangye heard this familiar voice, he immediately walked in the direction of Liu Yunru, and said excitedly: "You girl, why did you go out and come back so late, do you know how worried I am, if something happens to you, how should I explain to your mother."
Liu Yunru ignored her father's worries, she didn't expect that she was more important than anything else in her father's heart.
She immediately hugged her father and couldn't help crying.
"I'm sorry, Daddy. It worries you, it's your daughter's unfilial piety. Liu Yunru said reproachfully.
In the previous life, it was also because of her that Liu Wangfu was killed, and no one was spared. After being reborn, she vowed not to let her father worry about her again, but today she broke her promise, and she once again made her father worry about her.
Liu Wangye was a little stunned for a while, he didn't expect that he was just a little heavier, but he didn't expect Liu Yunru to cry so fiercely.
He hurriedly patted Liu Yunru's back lightly and comforted: "Yunru, Daddy is just too worried about your safety, and he doesn't mean to blame you."
Liu Yunru cried more and more fiercely, she knew that she cried so fiercely because of her father's love and tolerance for her, which moved her so much, not because of her father's blame.
"Okay, stop crying. It's not pretty to cry anymore, you're hungry, hurry up and freshen up, Daddy will make you something to eat in the kitchen, and then send it to your room. Liu Wangye said dotingly.
Liu Yunru raised her head, wiped her tears, nodded, and said, "Daddy, I'm sorry, I won't let you worry about it in the future."
"Okay, Daddy believes in you, go back quickly." Liu Wangye touched Liu Yunru's hair and said dotingly.
After Liu Yunru left, the guards hiding in the shadows appeared and walked out.
I saw the guard clasping his hands into fists, kneeling on the ground, and said with a look of self-reproach: "Lord Wang, it is the subordinates who are not doing well, please punish the prince."
Liu Wangye frowned, and said, "You get up first and tell me, what happened?" How did you get it so late? ”
The guard stood up and whispered, "Today, the young lady disguised herself as a man and went to the suburbs, and when she came back, she was followed, so she came back a little late."
"What are you doing in the countryside?" Liu Wangye said solemnly.
The guard knelt down again, shook his head and said, "The subordinates are incompetent, that place is very hidden, and the subordinates don't dare to get too close, so I didn't see what the young lady was doing over there."
"Then can you find out who is following Yunru?" Liu Wangye asked worriedly.
What worries him most is Yunru's comfort, which her mother had confessed before she disappeared. No matter what, you have to protect Yunru and don't let her be hurt in the slightest.
The guard lowered his head and said reproachfully, "Not yet, but the other party is not hostile."
"Okay, I got it. You step back first, and then you will follow the young lady and keep her safe. As for who is being followed, I send someone else to investigate. Liu Wangye said.
After the guards retired, Liu Wangye looked at the stars in the sky and didn't know what to think about.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
Liu Yunru followed the agreement, and the woman disguised herself as a man and sneaked out of the house and came to the suburbs again.
"Little brother, you're here. Grandpa has already helped you build your weapon. I'll take you there. The little boy trotted over and said breathlessly.
Liu Yunru glanced at the little boy and found that he seemed to be much better today than that day.
She nodded and said, "Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome, thank you for the ginseng you gave me, so that I can get better." The little boy said sincerely.
Liu Yunru shook his head and said, "This is not my credit, this is what your grandfather deserves." So it's your grandfather who you should be thankful for. ”
The little boy nodded, did not speak, and took Liu Yunru into the thatched house.
"You're here?" The old blacksmith saw Liu Yunru and said calmly.
Liu Yunru nodded and said, "Yes." As agreed, when the three days were up, I would come and take my weapon. ”
The old blacksmith nodded and said, "Okay, you wait a minute, I'll go and bring it to you."
After a while, the old blacksmith came over with a box and handed it to Liu Yunru.
"This is the weapon you want, open it and take a look." The old blacksmith said confidently.
Liu Yunru opened the box excitedly, and to her surprise, it was a hairpin.
"This ...... You're not kidding me, are you? Liu Yunru hesitated for a moment and asked.
"Hmph, don't underestimate this hairpin, it's very sharp, not only can it be used as a weapon, but it also has a mechanism in it, I put some ecstasy in it, you can use it to escape at a critical moment." The old blacksmith explained.
"Really? It's amazing, I know you won't let me down, this hairpin is deceptively simple, easy to carry, and not noticeable, it's really tailor-made for me. Liu Yunru was happy, since she forgot that she was now a woman dressed as a man.
"So, are you really a woman, as grandpa said?" The boy spoke, pulling Liu Yunru back to reality.
"Uh...... What did I just say?" Liu Yunru said cautiously.
The little boy smiled and said, "My sister just said that this hairpin is made for you!"
“…… You heard it wrong. …… I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first, thank you for giving me the weapon, I like it very much, and I'll see you soon. Liu Yunru took the hairpin and left in a hurry.
The grandfather and grandson looked at Liu Yunru's fleeing back, shook their heads, and continued to be busy with the things at hand.
Liu Yunru ran so far in one breath that she forgot about her horse.
Now go back and get the horse?
No, she can't afford to lose this person, thinking that she is trying to play a man, but she didn't expect that the other party is so cooperative with her, and even a five or six-year-old child has not broken her lies, which is really embarrassing.
Liu Yunru walked slowly, it seemed that it was very late to get home today.
At this moment, the attendant suddenly appeared in front of her, startling her.
"You...... Who are you? Liu Yunru took a few steps back and said defensively.
The attendant knelt on one knee and said, "Miss, down there is Liu Feng, it was the prince who sent me over to secretly protect the safety of the young lady, this is the prince's token."
Liu Yunru hesitated for a moment and took the token, this is indeed her father's, I think it's true.
"Get up. You tell me, when did my father send you to protect me? Liu Yunru asked suspiciously.
She was not afraid of being watched, but afraid that her father would work for her and worry about her. She also wanted to know how much her father had silently paid for her.
"Miss Report, after you returned late last time, the prince asked me to start protecting you." Liu Feng didn't hide it, and said directly.
Actually, Liu Feng is selfish, and according to the rules, he shouldn't tell Miss about this. But he knew that the prince had paid too much for the sake of the young lady, but the young lady didn't know it, and listened to the prince's lies, so he was a little worthless for the prince to rush, but as a subordinate, he couldn't say anything.
"yes, I see. I think you know what my father's recent health is, so after you go back, what to say and what not to say, I believe you are measured. Liu Yunru said coldly.
Although he was sent by his father, since he followed him, then it must be done by her reason.
"Yes, miss, my subordinates understand." Liu Feng didn't expect that the young lady would start to think about the prince, so he was even more determined to continue to follow her.
"Well, then you hurry up and find a horse, let's hurry back, so that Daddy won't worry." Liu Yunru commanded.
Without waiting for Liu Feng to answer, I saw his eyebrows furrowed, and before Liu Yunru could ask him what was wrong, he was pulled into the grass on the side.
"What are you doing?" Liu Yunru said angrily.
"Shhhhh Liu Feng explained.
Liu Yunru was stunned, she knew that this place was very dangerous, she had planned to take a weapon and go back immediately, but she didn't expect to be bumped into by her.
Without waiting for Liu Yunru to think about it, he saw a man in a purple robe being chased by a group of black-clothed people, with his left hand behind him and a sharp sword in his right hand, looking directly at them without the slightest fear.
"Give you a chance, tell me who sent you here?" The man in purple said solemnly.
His eyes were very terrifying, as if the group of men in black on the other side would kill them in the next second if they didn't tell them.
Liu Yunru and Liu Feng hid in the dark, not daring to squeak, silently watching the murderous scene in front of them.
For Liu Yunru, not only was she not afraid, but a little excited. These days, she is studying how to practice martial arts behind closed doors, and she has no clue. Now that there is such an opportunity, in front of her, she must memorize their moves and practice them when it is convenient.
A breeze blew, but the man in black remained silent.
Seeing this, the purple-clothed man raised the corners of his mouth, sneered on his handsome face, and without too many words, he directly took the sword in his hand and rushed over quickly.
The speed was very amazing, but after a moment's effort, I saw the two black-clothed men led by him fall to the ground.
Liu Yunru, who was hiding in the grass, blinked her big eyes. She really couldn't believe it, the other party was really too powerful, she didn't see it clearly, and the man in black was killed.
Immediately afterwards, the group of men in black all rushed towards the man, and the man was surrounded by a group, and it was very difficult to break through.
Liu Yunru didn't know why, she was a little worried about him, just when she was about to let Liu Feng go out to help, the man's originally strong body suddenly moved, he still held the sword, and started a fight with the man in black.
