Chapter 142: The Prince Assassinated!
Leaving the phoenix habitat, Lin Yu and Xiao Yuling reappeared in Qiwu Mountain.
Walking out of the tree hole, it was still late at night in the mountains, and it was only an hour after watching the trajectory of the moon in the sky.
Fortunately, it's still early, rush back now, and you can get a good night's sleep, after all, you have to go early tomorrow morning.
Thinking of hurrying, Lin Yu was immediately deflated.
This time I came to Qiwu Mountain, I originally wanted to catch a phoenix as a mount and fly back to the imperial capital, the province was tired all the way, but now it is good, the phoenix is caught, but ......
Lin Yu looked at the phoenix cub who was sleeping in Xiao Yuling's arms, and suddenly looked at the sky speechlessly.
Now not only is the mount gone, but they also have to take care of a phoenix cub like a bear child along the way.
Of course, it was Xiao Yuling who took care of her, and she only planned to watch from the side.
King Feng's younger brother Sanbao wanted to come out with Xiao Yuling, and recognized him as the master.
And King Feng originally wanted to come out to escort her back to the imperial capital, but she was given another important task, so she had to give up.
Lin Yu looked at the extra ring on the middle finger of her right hand, fortunately, there was a Xuanling ring, and it would be much easier for her to summon a phoenix in the future.
The two went down to Qiwu Mountain, found the horses left before at the bottom of the mountain, and rode back to the small village where the prince and his party stayed at night.
Unexpectedly, from a distance, the originally quiet small village is now brightly lit!
Could it be that they sneaked out in the middle of the night and were discovered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Or is there something big going on?
Lin Yu and Xiao Yuling glanced at each other, sped up their speeds, and hurried to the village.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I happened to see Mo Qi riding a tall horse, with a grim expression and a team of soldiers coming out of the village.
Xiao Yuling frowned slightly, and rode forward to meet her, "Mo Qi, what happened?" ”
He had left a note in the room, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found out that he and Miss Lin were missing, he would not be so aggressive.
Mo Qi's expression was heavy, and he was about to order the soldiers to speed up and go into the mountains to look for people, but as soon as he left the village, he met His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince.
Mo Qi waved his hand, signaled the soldiers behind him to stop, and then dismounted and walked in front of Xiao Yuling, knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, the crown prince was assassinated, and after clearing the assassins, it was found that you and Miss Lin were gone, and later His Royal Highness the prince found the note you left in the room, worried that you and Miss Lin would be in danger in the mountains, and sent his subordinates to take people to the mountains to meet you and Miss Lin." ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated?"
Xiao Yuling's expression was solemn, "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince okay now?" Have you caught the Assassin and found out who did it? ”
Mo Qi shook his head and said heavily: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was slightly injured, but now there is no major problem. The Assassins were all dead, and those caught committed suicide by poisoning themselves on the spot, leaving no clues. ”
Lin Yu then arrived, and just heard Mo Qi's words, and secretly said in his heart, it seems that this prince's side is going to be lively in the future. There will be an assassination at two ends in three days, is this to let her personally witness the battle for the throne of Dayu? It seems to be a little bit interesting.
After listening to Mo Qi's words, Xiao Yuling immediately rode into the village, Lin Yu followed closely, and the two soon came to the courtyard where the prince was staying.
After getting off the horse, Lin Yu followed behind Xiao Yuling and walked into the courtyard one after the other.
The atmosphere in the courtyard was tense, and all the soldiers were fully armed, and they were on high alert to the surrounding grass and trees to protect the prince's safety.
