Chapter 219: Self-directed and self-acting?
"Can you catch the assassin?"
"I was supposed to catch one, but ...... Committed suicide by taking poison. ”
Chu Mu was silent for a while before turning his head to look at Ruan Tang.
"This king may need to go and see."
"Go, it just so happens that I have something to go back to the other courtyard." Ruan Tang patted him on the shoulder and spoke very generously.
But Chu Mu's face was not very good-looking.
"You're so relieved to let me go to her?"
A few days ago, she also made unusual moves towards him because of Cheng Yiliu, such as taking the initiative to kiss him, such as questioning him.
He defines those as jealous.
He was very happy, although he asked her if she had decided to stay with him, and she did not answer directly.
But every move during this period of time proves that she agrees.
Now that he is going to find Cheng Yiliu, why isn't she worried?
"What's not to worry about, she can't snatch you away anyway, besides, doesn't it mean that she is seriously injured? As the prince of the Great Zhou, no matter which common people you are, you are injured at the feet of the Son of Heaven in Shangjing, and you should go and see it. ”
"What's more, her father still has a life-saving grace for His Highness, even if it is only for this point, His Highness should take a look."
After listening to Ruan Tang's explanation, Chu Mu felt a little better.
"Then you better not go back to the other courtyard yet, just stay here, this king will be back soon, if you are bored, I will send someone to the other garden to call Tana to accompany you."
Cheng Yiliu's matter is not simple, it is estimated that he will not be able to come back for a while, and even if he does, he may not have time to go to the other courtyard to find her today.
But he wanted to see her as soon as he got home.
"That's too much trouble, I might as well go back." Ruan Tang refused.
However, Chumu suddenly hugged her and said in her ear: "This king wants to see you as soon as he returns to the mansion, and stay for another day, okay?" ”
As he spoke, he rubbed her neck.
Ruan Tang smiled helplessly, she really had no resistance to such a coquettish little milk dog.
I had to respond: "Okay, I'll go to your study and write a script." ”
She had thought of going back and drawing the decoration drawings of her shop, but now he had to draw them here.
Chu Mu left quickly, and Ruan Tang went directly to his study.
It didn't take long for Tana to arrive.
Ruan Tang thought that Chu Mu was just talking, but he didn't expect to really call Tana.
Tana also brought the Snow Jade Beast with her.
This guy, since she was plotted by Fang Huairou last time, in order to save her, she was injured by the man in black, although Ling Qing healed its injuries later, it is not as active as before, it sleeps when it is full every day, and eats when it wakes up.
Ruan Tang was worried, for fear that it would be due to some internal injuries.
But Ling Qing checked it many times and was sure that it had no internal injuries.
Ling Qing guessed that it might have injured its vitality and needed more rest to replenish it.
Therefore, recently, Ruan Tang has almost always let it stay by Ling Qing's side.
Occasionally, I'll be with Tana, because Tana also knows some medical skills.
As soon as the Snow Jade Beast saw Ruan Tang, it broke free from Tana's arms and jumped into her arms.
"How did you bring it?" Ruan Tang lowered his head and stroked the fluffy hair of the snow jade beast and asked Tana.
"I see that it has been in much better spirits recently, and I think that its vitality has almost recovered, so I will take it out to breathe, and by the way, I will bring it over to relieve your boredom."
The Snow Jade Beast followed Tana's words and let out a low growl, as if echoing Tana.
Ruan Tang scratched its big head before beckoning Tana to sit down at the coffee table.
After Tana sat down, she couldn't help but look around.
"I didn't expect His Highness's study to be not very luxurious."
Ruan Tang also followed her gaze and looked around.
"He's really low-key here."
Even his entire palace, except for the big one, doesn't seem to have any particularly luxurious decorations.
At least in her opinion, a powerful and rich person like him must have some top-notch ornamental items at home.
But most of the things he has here are practical.
He belongs to that kind of person, he is not stingy with the money that should be spent, and he does not waste any money that should not be spent.
"Your Highness is really good to you, and when you give you money, you are not ambiguous at all."
Chu Mu had taken all his cash to the other courtyard to make Ruan Tang happy, and the people in the entire courtyard knew about it.
Compared to the decoration of his palace, he is indeed not stingy with himself at all.
"Well, he did a really good job of this, and he is an example that all men should follow." Ruan Tang praised Chu Mu, and his face unconsciously showed a look of pride in him.
Tana couldn't help but scratch her a few times, and the two of them laughed and rolled onto the cushion beside her.
——
When Chu Mu arrived at the Yunlai Inn, he had already asked Nanfeng to send people to surround the entire inn.
Most of the guests living inside were scared away because of the assassination of Cheng Yiliu by the man in black.
Nanfeng brought Cheng Yiliu back from the northwest and arranged to live here, Chu Mu deliberately did not explicitly send people to guard here, nor did he restrict Cheng Yiliu's actions.
The purpose is to know, where did Cheng Yiliu's treasure map come from? Where is she hiding now?
Is there anyone behind her who works with her?
It's just that before these things can be discovered, the assassin will come to the door.
The person who wants the treasure map, apart from himself, is Shen Qianyi and the people behind him.
He had long guessed that Shen Qianyi and the people behind him would not settle down, and if he didn't get this map in the hands of Cheng Yiliu in the northwest, he would definitely chase him to the capital.
It's just that he didn't expect them to do it so quickly, or under his nose, in public, in broad daylight.
The extent of this rampant was beyond his expectations.
If it weren't for his people who have been guarding in the dark, I'm afraid that today's Cheng Yiliu would also be unable to escape.
Chu Mu took Nanfeng directly to the room where Cheng Yiliu lived, and at this moment he had already asked a doctor to diagnose her pulse.
"How's the people?" After the doctor finished reading, Chu Mu asked.
"Back to Your Highness, this girl, except for a few major injuries on her body, there is no major problem, take medicine on time, take medicine, and the wound will heal in a few days."
Chu Mu nodded and asked him to go down and prescribe medicine.
After the doctor withdrew, Cheng Yiliu, who was lying on the bed, sat up from the bed with difficulty and looked at Chu Mu with teary eyes.
"Your Highness......" Her call was soft, and there seemed to be endless grievances and fears in it.
However, her Chu Chu was pitiful, but she couldn't arouse Chu Mu's pity.
He looked at her with a cold and indifferent look, "The doctor has said that your condition is fine, pay attention to rest, take medicine on time and take medicine to recover." ”
Chu Mu heard Nanfeng say that she was seriously injured, and thought it was a life-threatening injury, but he didn't think about it, just a few scratches.
Although, it may have been a deep wound, but to him, it was not a serious injury.
After Chu Mu finished speaking, he wanted to leave.
But Cheng Yiliu's goal has not been achieved, how can he be easily let go?
"Your Highness, it's no longer safe here, I can't live here anymore."
Chu Mu's footsteps stopped, his eyebrows furrowed, and he turned to look at her again, "Don't live here?" Where does the adult girl want to live? ”
Cheng Yiliu looked at her indifferent eyebrows, and her heart was full of unwillingness, "I know that Your Highness doesn't want me to live in your mansion, but now, in the entire Shangjing City, I'm afraid only His Highness's mansion is the safest." ”
"Those people want to kill me, even if I change an inn, they still want to kill me, but if it is in His Highness's mansion, they will definitely not dare to break in."
If at the beginning, Chu Mu only suspected Shen Qianyi, but at this moment he also had to suspect Cheng Yiliu.
Everything seems like she is a victim, but it all happens in a place full of loopholes.
If Shen Qianyi and the people behind him wanted to assassinate Cheng Yiliu to get the treasure map, they would not choose it in broad daylight and when there were so many people on the street.
And their purpose is to find the treasure map, and they will definitely not give up until they get their hands on it, even if they don't kill Cheng Yiliu, they will arrest her and force her to ask about the whereabouts of the treasure map.
It definitely won't just slash her.
And it's such a light few knives.
Chu Mu snorted and went straight to the point, "Your wishful thinking is quite loud, who knows, did you find these assassins yourself, direct and act by yourself?" ”
Cheng Yiliu was startled, staggered off the bed, and knelt on the ground, "Your Highness Mingjian, how can Liu Er have that ability?" ”
