Chapter 210: Distress
"That's nature." For his yin and yang weird tone, Mu Yunli never paid attention to it, his five fingers were together, and he made a gesture of please, "Please get on the boat." β
For today's moment, he has been planning painstakingly for a long time, but he didn't expect that it would be cost-effective to let Yelus take advantage of him in vain, but he couldn't get rid of it, so he could only cheapen him.
The three of them came to the ship, and after seeing the layout of the ship clearly, Yelus sighed, "The third prince is really painstaking. β
This ship looks no different from the outside, but in fact, there is a secret inside, Mu Yunli has made this place magnificent, with a dazzling array of wine and food, and some small objects that his daughter's family likes, it can be seen that in order to please Li Changge, he has indeed put a lot of effort into it.
But what he didn't know was that Li Changge didn't like extravagance and waste, instead of doing these useless work, it was better to simply come and be likable, and she was already suspicious of him, even if he made a flower on the boat, it wouldn't change the result, it would only waste time.
"For the sake of the good life to entertain Miss Li, this is what I should do." Mu Yunli sat next to Li Changge, very close to her, and his mouth exhaled softly, which could blow in her ears, and his posture was very ambiguous.
Li Changge moved back quietly, keeping a certain distance from him, "The third prince is polite. β
He is a dangerous person, his whole body is full of stingers, and if he is not careful, he will kill people invisibly, and before he has asked him about the matter of JerΓΌs, she will not let him take advantage of it again.
"It's Miss Li who is too polite." Her every move couldn't escape Mu Yunli's eyes, so she couldn't help but be a little disappointed in her, "I saved your life, and I am an old acquaintance with you, why are you wary of me, are you afraid that I will kill you?" β
She doesn't need to be like this, after all, if she really had the intention to kill her, she wouldn't have saved her in the first place, and her attitude towards her life-saving benefactor is so lukewarm and guarded?
The third prince laughed. didn't care about his protest, Li Changge replied perfunctorily, "I'm not guarding against you, but you can't have the heart to harm people, you can't have the heart to prevent people, when you go out, it's not a bad thing to have an extra heart, right?" β
Bad people never have words engraved on their faces, although they hold back the bad water in their stomachs, who can see that they are hypocritical and righteous on the surface? The appearance is the easiest to disguise, she can't believe it all, and when necessary, she should be more guarded, so that she can protect herself.
"Miss Li is right in everything." Holding the wine glass, Mu Yunli did not doubt that he had a smile, as if there was no reason for him, when she said this, it was all golden and jade good words, and he was empowered, "I will give you a glass below." β
The two wine glasses touched together, Li Changge reluctantly toasted with him, at the same time, she was also observing Mu Yunli, wanting to see what was abnormal with him today, and asking her to come here in advance, presumably it was not as simple as visiting the lake and enjoying the flowers.
"The third prince came to me today just to swim in the lake?"
Mu Yunli really sat still, calm, from the beginning to the present, he didn't say a serious word, he was not in a hurry, Li Changge was also dying, it was better to ask directly than to wait for him to speak.
"yes." Mu Yunli nodded categorically, "Look at this lotus flower, will it be very beautiful?" β
"You're really in a good mood."
Li Changge's heart was in a mess at the moment, but he was in the mood to appreciate the lotus, it seemed that they were indeed different and did not conspire with each other.
"How can you live up to the beautiful scenery of a good day?" Ignoring her sarcasm, Mu Yunli replied as a matter of course.
The other two looked at each other, their expressions were a little difficult to understand, Li Changge was not sure whether his words were true or false, Yelus didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, and no one could figure him out, so he decided to look at it while walking, and he couldn't easily make a conclusion.
Mu Yunli admired the scenery in the lake, and the other two observed him, neither of them spoke to each other, and there was only embarrassment left in it, but fortunately, it was also very peaceful, and this situation was not broken until the boat sailed to the middle of the lake.
"Poof", on the calm and waveless lake, there was a sudden ripple, and then a large number of killers came out of the water, it seems that they have been prepared, and they have been lurking underwater for a long time, just waiting for them to take the bait.
The people in front of them were menacing, and the three of them had to put aside their personal grievances first and join forces to deal with these killers, but on the way to fight, they found one thing, these killers were obviously coming for Mu Yunli, and they didn't deal with Li Changge and them at all, they only wanted to take Mu Yunli's life, if their guess was correct, they were affected by him.
After a few rounds, those killers gradually fell into disadvantage, "Lord Yelu, remember to stay alive." Li Changge admonished.
She wants to ask who wants to harm Mu Yunli and undermine the peace between the two countries, and such a major matter must be thoroughly investigated.
"Understood."
According to her request, Yerus did not ask for the killer's life, but showed mercy to his subordinates everywhere, wanting to capture them alive, but the killer saw that the plan failed, so he didn't give them a chance to interrogate at all, and directly chose to commit suicide en masse, so that if they wanted to ask, they had nowhere to ask.
"What can I do now?" Looking at the piles of corpses, Jerus also began to worry.
"Go back and hand it over to Dali Temple for investigation."
With these corpses here, there are always some clues that can be found, which are related to national affairs, and the matter is serious, so it is better to be cautious.
"It's fine." Yerus nodded, "That's all there is to it." β
It was really disappointing to come to the lake to enjoy the flowers and enjoy the boating on the lake, but to encounter such a bloody thing, but fortunately, a few of them were fine, even if they were fortunate in misfortune.
"Third prince, are you okay?" As the first candidate to bear the brunt of the targeting, Li Changge has the obligation to ensure Mu Yunli's safety, "Is there anything uncomfortable?" β
He is not an ordinary person, so his life and safety are not only related to the three of them, but to the three countries, put aside those prejudices, standing on the national position at this moment, she just wants to make sure that Mu Yunli is safe and sound.
"I'm fine." Mu Yunli was obviously shocked, but he didn't forget to tease Li Changge, "I wonder if Miss Li was scared?" β
"I'm fine." Fortunately, there was a false alarm, and Li Changge didn't bother to pay attention to his frivolous tone, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's leave quickly." β
She didn't know who wanted to hurt Mu Yunli, but since the other party already had this thought, she would definitely not give up, if she couldn't do anything, she would have another plan, maybe the second batch of killers would arrive soon, they were outnumbered, or they should stay away from this place of right and wrong, and go back to think about it in the long run.
Before leaving, she groped for the corpses of those killers again, trying to see if she could find some clues, but she didn't expect that she really found the clues, looking at these secret weapons that were exactly the same as Mu Yunli, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Mu Yunli has no reason to send someone to assassinate him, and the matter of the hidden weapon does not mean that it must be his, although he has this suspicion, but he may also be innocent, and now the hidden weapon has also been found here, could it be that she misunderstood him before?
"Miss Li, aren't you leaving?"
Mu Yunli's voice came from a distance, breaking her contemplation, "Go." β
Carefully retracted the hidden weapon into her sleeve, she decided to investigate this matter, the first thing she should know is who the owner of the hidden weapon is, so that she knows whether she wronged Mu Yunli, or if there is another reason.
β¦β¦β¦
The story of the three encountering assassins on the lake soon spread wildly, and after being known by Tuoba Huan, he hurriedly set up a convulsion banquet in the palace, hoping to suppress the shock for the two of them, and even more hope that this unpleasantness would not affect the relationship between the three kingdoms.
"This glass of wine, I salute the two envoys." As the king of a country, he didn't protect them well, and almost put them in danger, no matter what the final situation was, Tuoba Truss thought that he could not escape the blame, so he had to make amends first, "The envoy came from afar, it was I who did not entertain them well, so that the two of you were frightened, and the rudeness was still looking at Haihan." β
In the final analysis, it was he, the host, who did not do a good job, and it was his dereliction of duty that he deserved to punish himself.
It's just that their situation in Duannan is really dangerous, he thinks it's better to return to China earlier, so that no matter what happens later, it has nothing to do with him, he doesn't want them to have all kinds of problems in Duannan, and he will be the one who will be in trouble at that time.
"What did the emperor say?" Jerus said generously, "I know that this matter has nothing to do with you, and you don't need to blame yourself." β
Mu Yunli, who was on the side, also followed the official tone, "What Lord Yelu said is that those murderers have all been punished this time, and the emperor does not have to feel guilty." β
It's rare for the two of them to have such a general understanding, and Tuoba Truss is grateful, "The two envoys understand the righteousness so well, which makes me admire, and I salute the two of them again." β
Since they all said that this matter had nothing to do with him, they should keep their words in mind, and no matter what happened in the future, they would not want to put the blame on Duannan.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was quite relaxed, taking advantage of this great opportunity, Tuoba Truss asked, "The two of you have been in Duannan for a while, and everything that should be done has been done, I don't know when you plan to leave for back?" β
The more they stayed here, the more dangerous it became, and he was too busy dealing with Zuo Wei to pay attention to the two of them, so if there was nothing special, they could return to China, and they didn't have to stay in a foreign country and linger.
The two looked at each other and smiled, the first time they had such a tacit understanding, "This matter is not urgent, we want to stay for a few more days and then make plans." β
