Chapter 422: King Chen's Assassination (II)

Shen Mei was just about to reach over and wipe her tears, when suddenly, there was a sharp pain in her head, and some continuous pictures flashed in her mind in a chaotic manner, as if her consciousness was not under her control.

Shen Mei's head hurt sharply, and looking at the tearful man in front of her, her vision gradually blurred.

Lingyu watched Shen Mei fall towards the ground like this, shocked and hurriedly called for help. "Come on, come on." Lingyu didn't have time to catch Shen Mei, only to see him fall down suddenly and faint.

After a while, the old housekeeper in the backyard of the Shen Mansion brought someone to place Shen Mei well, and Lingyu took care of it carefully.

The old housekeeper heard about Shen Mei's confrontation with the second lady just now and looked at the person lying on the bed, shook his head helplessly, sighed and instructed Lingyu, "You take good care of it, if there is anything, let people come to me." Originally, I thought Shen Mei was a clever person, but I didn't expect that she still couldn't pass the eyes of the second lady.

Lingyu obediently responded to the old housekeeper, and looked at the person who had not yet woken up on the bed with a worried face, just now he actually called her "little bell". This name is still the nickname given to her by the young lady when she made trouble with her, how could Lu Jiu know. The delicate willow eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly because of thinking about this matter.

After a while, Shen Mei woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Lingyu sitting on the edge of the bed with a suspicious expression. Seeing Lingyu's appearance, Shen Mei's drowsy head suddenly flashed what had just happened, thinking that things were not good, even Lingyu had begun to suspect him, it seemed that continuing to stay in the Shen Mansion was only afraid that things would become troublesome, and Bai Ying was suspicious by nature.

Endured the headache and stood up. "Miss Lingyu, what is this?"

Hearing Shen Mei's question, Lingyu noticed that Shen Mei had come to her senses, so she was a little relieved, and breathed a sigh of relief without a trace. stepped forward to help Shen Mei and helped put a pillow on his back. Shen Mei thanked Lingyu.

"Little brother, don't be polite to me, this is the place where the housekeeper rests, I just saw you faint, so I called someone to come over to help." Lingyu looked at Shen Mei's face was still not good, and she was still a little worried.

"Little brother, do you feel better now?"

Shen Meiqiang cheered up, and the corners of her mouth smiled slightly. "Well, it's much better, thank you Miss Lingyu for ...... just now"

"If it wasn't for my little brother to help me talk just now, I'm afraid I would still be locked up in the firewood room now." Lingyu interrupted Shen Mei's words, only because Lingyu felt embarrassed in her heart, obviously because of her, she let the little brother be reprimanded by Mrs.

"I'm out of the way, but it's not too early, so I'll take my leave." Shen Mei looked at the sky, after all, she had promised Yun Pei to go back earlier, so as not to worry about her, so she immediately lifted the quilt and got up.

Lingyu had worry in her eyes, Shen Mei had just woken up, why did she have to leave in a hurry, did she say the wrong thing and make Shen Mei unhappy.

Shen Mei felt that Lingyu was suddenly silent, so she glanced back at her, looking at her expression a little aggrieved, and she was about to cry. Shen Mei was helpless, and reached out to rub Lingyu's head. "There are still people at home waiting for me to go back, so I will stay soon." The smile is gentle and full of concern.

Lingyu's heart softened and nodded. With a slightly nasal voice, "Well, Lingyu knows, little brother, you just woke up, and the doctor said that you are overworked, and you have to rest when you go back." ”

Shen Mei smiled lightly and agreed, and then left the house.

Hunting in the western suburbs, what happened last night, Mu Qingfeng reported it all to the emperor, the emperor listened to it affectionately and complicated, this matter was obviously deliberately designed by someone, and this person might be under their noses.

"Feng'er, tell me, what do you think about this matter?" The emperor wanted to see Mu Qingfeng, the son he was most proud of.

Mu Qingfeng only found some clues, and now there is no conclusive evidence, so he doesn't dare to jump to conclusions, so as not to startle the snake.

In the end, he thought about it, and only said, "Back to my father, these things seem to be unrelated, but they are really hidden mysterious, and my son wants to ask my father to give my son more time, and my son will definitely be able to give his father an explanation." ”

The emperor's expression was complicated, and he knew in his heart that this matter must be handled carefully. Then he remembered something and said to Mu Qingfeng, "I wronged you a few days ago." ”

Mu Qingfeng smiled, naturally knew what the emperor was saying to him, the emperor saw the wound on the tiger's body that day, and knew that the tiger was hunted by him, but because there were too many people involved at that time, the emperor did not deal with the matter, but snubbed Mu Lingxuan, Mu Qingfeng smiled secretly in his heart, I am afraid that this time even Mu Lingxuan himself does not know what makes the emperor feel disgusted, and the insatiable person will not get his wish after all.

Mu Qingfeng shook his head, "The matter of the father, the son did not take it to heart, and asked the father not to blame others for this matter, the matter of King Chen at the moment is the most important." ”

The emperor was deeply pleased. "Feng'er, the rest is all for you."

The emperor looked at Mu Qingfeng's calm appearance and was much more relieved, it seems that he did not mistake his son, he has a broad heart and a bit of a king's spirit, but he just wants to become a king, he doesn't like to fight, he is afraid that he will suffer.

Then I thought that I could control the border of Qi by making friends with Yulin State, but after the new lord of Yulin Country ascended the throne in recent years, there was a lot less contact between the two countries, and I wanted to take this opportunity to test King Chen, but I didn't expect that this King Chen not only did not answer his request positively, but also wanted to let the Jingyun port of Wuguo exempt them from taxes on cargo ships, and this King Chen was not as easy to deal with as his father. It seems that he underestimated him.

However, now the territory of King Chenwu was assassinated and wounded. If you can't handle this matter properly, I'm afraid King Chen won't stop there.

Mu Qingfeng saw the emperor's concerns, "Father, what are your concerns, my son is willing to relieve my father's worries." ”

The emperor sighed, and then said, "It's not that your father doubts your talent and ability to plan, it's just that this time King Chen's assassination seems simple, but it is actually dangerous, and compared to the danger, there is also the containment between countries, and the father is just afraid of ......"

Mu Qingfeng naturally understood what the emperor meant, national affairs, important matters, a little wind and grass can have a far-reaching impact, the people of Wuguo can't afford these power games, but after a few years of stable life, there are people secretly commotion, is there really no way to calm this fight that is lurking in the shadows and is about to break out. In his eyes, there are more precious existences than power, but in the whirlpool of power, if he doesn't want to be dominated by others, he has to become the only king, maybe in this way he can find Shen Mei back, so that he can really give her a definite future.
