Chapter 102: Failed Assassination
When Chengfeng saw the familiar signal flare in the sky, Chu Hongze was dealing with the matter at hand in the palace, and Chengfeng hurriedly entered the house, "Lord, it's not good, something happened!" ”
Chu Hongze knew that only Wei Feng was protecting Wen Ruyi in the capital, that is to say, Wen Ruyi had an accident, and when he got the news, Chu Hongze immediately rushed over with Chengfeng, and hurried along the way, for fear that he would be late.
Seeing so many people gathered in front of him, Chu Hongze jumped out of the carriage and rushed over, but in the thousands of people, he saw Wen Ruyi at a glance, "Ruyi!" ”
Wen Ruyi, who heard the familiar voice, just turned her head and was directly hugged into a familiar embrace, it was the smell of vanilla she liked, "Lord Wang, why are you here?" ”
Chu Hongze felt Wen Ruyi's body temperature, and at this time there was a feeling as if he had lost and regained, he thought about many possibilities on the way here, and for the first time in his heart, he was so flustered, and pushed Wen Ruyi away a little, Chu Hongze carefully checked her, and found that there were no scars on her body before he put his mind at ease, "It's okay, right?" ”
It was his soft inquiry that made all Wen Ruyi's emotions suddenly collapse, and she threw herself directly into Chu Hongze's arms despite the fact that so many people present were watching, and rubbed on his luxurious clothes with a crying voice, "It's okay, I'm fine!" ”
He finally came, and God knows how much she wished he could be in front of her.
"Okay, it's okay!" Chu Hongze could feel Wen Ruyi's excitement, and let her mess up in his arms, so he raised his eyes and glanced around, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
And just when he looked up, he met Mu Zirong's gaze unexpectedly, "I didn't expect Prince Mu to be here!" ”
Mu Zirong looked at Wen Ruyi, who buried his head in Chu Hongze's arms, and his eyes couldn't help but deepen, but it only returned to his original state in a moment, squinting and saying, "I happened to pass by!" ”
Chu Hongze looked at the things wrapped around his arm, and instantly understood a little, "Thank you so much Prince Mu just now!" ”
Between the two of them, Mu Zirong just smiled but didn't speak.
Wen Ruyi heard the voice and wanted to raise her head to take a look, but Chu Hongze reached out and held it down, she could only maintain her posture and hide obediently in his arms.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Hongze took Wen Ruyi and got on the horse directly, and the follow-up matters had to be dealt with by the wind, so he should go back to the palace to understand the situation first.
Looking at Chu Hongze, who had disappeared in front of him, a strange smile was drawn on Mu Zirong's face, and the guards behind him looked at him with some doubts, "Childe? ”
"Alright, let's go!" Mu Zirong retracted his gaze and left with the guards without a trace.
"Lord Wang, wait, Qingning, she ......" The horse had just run a few steps, and Wen Ruyi suddenly thought that there was a seriously injured Qingning in the carriage, and immediately grabbed Chu Hongze's clothes.
"It's okay, the wind will do it." Chu Hongze was not worried at all, Chengfeng had followed him for many years, and she was very relieved to do things.
The two returned to the palace without saying a word, Chu Hongze held Wen Ruyi in his arms, and listened to her talk about the assassination just now.
The matter has passed, Wen Ruyi was afraid that Chu Hongze would be worried, so he picked the key point and said, Chu Hongze listened and analyzed, like Wen Ruyi, he also felt that this assassination was very likely to be done by Chu Hongchen, but he felt that things were not so simple.
"Ruyi, why don't I send you to live with the master for a while!"
Although Wen Ruyi was understated just now, Chu Hongze felt flustered when he thought about it, he really didn't dare to imagine what she would do if something happened to Wen Ruyi?
And through today's assassination, he also knew that Wen Ruyi was in a lot of danger by his side, and he finally fell in love with such a strong and intelligent woman, so he naturally didn't want her to be hurt in any way.
"I don't want it!" Wen Ruyi leaned into Chu Hongze's arms again, and now she felt so relieved in his arms, as if she was not afraid of anything.
She knew what Chu Hongze meant, but she was not such a cowardly person, not to mention that she just wanted to help her achieve a great cause, how could she retreat easily?
Wen Ruyi's temper Chu Hongze knew, so he didn't deliberately force her, after all, he also liked her to be by his side, so he could only think about how to protect her more.
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, I went to Wen Mansion today to see Wen Qing, I heard that he meant to cooperate with us, what do you think, prince?"
Listening to Wen Ruyi subconsciously plucking himself out of the Wen family and placing it in the palace, Chu Hongchen was very happy in his heart, but thinking about Wen Qing, he still needs to think about it, "This Wen Qing is indeed an upstart in the court, but this is a ......."
"He is treacherous and cunning, so he still needs to be more guarded, and he can observe and observe the current situation." Wen Ruyi directly followed Chu Hongze's pause and took it over, blinking at him with a smile on his face.
Chu Hongze shook his head a little helplessly, and did not refute it, indeed, Wen Ruyi's words are what he meant, and the matter of cooperating with Wen Qing still needs to be considered, worried that the current situation is unclear, it is better to take the opportunity to hang him first.
"Oh, by the way, and the annoying Hu Yanmin, it's disgusting to partner with Chu Hongchen to deceive me." Wen Ruyi suddenly remembered that she had seen Chu Hongchen in the ancestral hall, and told Chu Hongze with some annoyance.
"This Chu Hongchen is even more annoying, he is so arrogant before he succeeds to the throne, he has lacked lessons since he was a child, and he seems to be as if everyone has to listen to him, it's really shameless."
Wen Ruyi hates Chu Hongchen quite much now, and can't wait to catch him back and beat him up now.
"Okay, we don't have to be angry about these people, you don't have to worry about other things, everything is still the king!"
"Good!" Wen Ruyi smiled and agreed, she just likes to complain.
The night is getting darker, Chu Hongchen is waiting for his subordinates to report the good news to him in the study, he wants to win over Wen Ruyi is her blessing, who knows that she toasts and does not eat and drink, no wonder he is ruthless.
Thinking of Wen Ruyi's sharp teeth and smugness before, Chu Hongchen couldn't help but evoke a mocking smile, this time he sent twenty dead soldiers to take her life, I believe that it will be successful, see that dead girl still dares to be arrogant in front of him, now even if it is too late to regret it.
In the next life, you must be a good person, and those who cannot be offended should not be offended, otherwise, you will not be able to make your own decisions.
"Your Highness!" Chu Hongchen was still sighing triumphantly that Wen Ruyi didn't know the current affairs, and a man in black suddenly appeared in front of him, and when he looked up at the clothes of the man in black, his eyebrows frowned.
"What's going on?" Chu Hongchen slapped the table heavily, and the man in black was so frightened that he quickly knelt down.
"Your Highness, the mission has failed!" Today, the other side suffered heavy losses, "Thirteen dead soldiers died, three were seriously injured, and the subordinates did not do their jobs effectively, please punish Your Highness!" ”
Chu Hongchen never thought that the dead soldiers he cultivated would lose so much at once, and so many of them with strong martial arts couldn't deal with a little girl? What kind of Holy Spirit is this Wen Ruyi, who actually made the dead soldiers he had cultivated for so many years lose so much?
Knowing that the plan failed, Chu Hongchen was very angry, and kicked directly at the man in black, who was already injured, and was directly kicked by Chu Hongchen's menacing foot and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Rubbish, it's all rubbish, it's really not as good as a dog!" Chu Hongchen's heart is dripping blood, if he loses so many people and kills Wen Ruyi, it's okay, but Wen Ruyi has nothing to do, why don't you make him angry?
"Get out, get out of the palace!"
Seeing that the prince was so angry, the man in black didn't dare to say more, and respectfully covered his injuries and left.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The housekeeper also heard Chu Hongchen's angry voice outside the door, and stood outside the door tremblingly.
"What's the matter?" Chu Hongchen is now on fire, so naturally he doesn't have a good tone.
"Your Highness, Mrs. Wen asks to see you!" Hu Yanmin said that she wanted to see the prince just now, her face looked a little bad, the two only met a few days ago, Hu Yanmin also ran over at this time, the housekeeper thought she had something important to see the prince, and risked the prince's anger to come and report.
Sure enough, Chu Hongchen frowned when he heard the news, it was already very late, what Hu Yanmin was doing at this time, he couldn't figure it out.
"Let her in!"
Chu Hongchen temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart and sat down at the table next to him.
Soon, Hu Yanmin followed the housekeeper to the study, her face looked a little ugly at this time, and she didn't get much better when she saw Chu Hongchen.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't have anything else to do today, the main thing is to bring back my daughter, she has become like that now, it is estimated that it is troublesome for His Highness to stay here, it is better for me to take her back to take care of her, so as to reduce the burden on His Highness." Hu Yanmin was gentle when he said this, and his tone was full of discussion and request.
As soon as Chu Hongchen heard Hu Yanmin's request, his face immediately sank, he had already answered this question, he would not agree, and he wanted to say it now?
"Mrs. Wen, it is also very heartbreaking for Dong Ling to become like this, but she is now the side concubine of the palace after all, even if she becomes any appearance, the palace will take good care of her, Mrs. Wen, please rest assured." Chu Hongchen still pretended to be affectionate in front of Hu Yanmin, but there was already a trace of impatience in his heart.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I only have one daughter, Dong Ling, she has become like this now, I am really distressed as a mother, in this way, I will take Dong Ling back to take care of it for a period of time, and then send it back, is it okay?" Seeing that Chu Hongchen had not agreed, Mrs. Wen had no choice but to continue to discuss with him in a soft voice.
