C17 Injury

Lin Qingruo did not expect her husband to reject her in such a straightforward manner. She did not know how to respond. She was stunned for a moment before she managed to squeeze out a few words.

"It's because I'm concerned that things are chaotic …"

Although Chu Mu Chen was a good Crown Prince, he was definitely not a good husband and didn't care about his wife's feelings.

"It's a mess if you're not concerned, you're meddling in something that you shouldn't care about! Now that it's all up to me, should I ask the Wyvern Guards to report everything to you? "

Lin Qingrou's face turned pale with fright.

Although the Flying Dragon Guard was controlled by his uncle, Wang Cheng, on the surface it still belonged to the Emperor. What Chu Mubai had said was no less than saying that Lin Qingrou was plotting to usurp power.

Lin Qingrou's legs went limp, nearly falling to her knees.

"I … "Your Highness, I don't dare to have such thoughts. I hope Your Highness can observe …"

How could she have known that just asking this question would cause Chu Mu Chen to fly into a rage?

Actually, if Lin Qing was innocent, Chu Mu Chen wouldn't be able to find joy in Chu Mu Han's body. He would then place the fire on her.

Chu Mu Chen coldly snorted. "You probably don't have the guts."

With that, he flicked his sleeve and left.

"Empress!"

Lin Qingrou's maidservant hurried forward to support her, preventing her from falling to the ground.

Lin Qingruo tightly held onto the maid's hand. The maid's face was twisted in pain, but she did not dare to make a sound.

He had written down his unwillingness and hatred in his eyes.

When Piper Luo saw the farce in the Crown Prince's Palace, he quietly left with a sigh.

The amount of information he had was too much, and he had to digest it.

Now, what he was sure of was that Ling Qingyi was most likely still in the Third Marquis Estate. Her identity was the fake Third Marquis' Consort, so he did not need to worry about her life.

Feng Jianxue's Master, impersonating his name and handwriting, and betting with his Junior Sister, told her to go to the capital and steal the multicolored glass from the marriage engagement of the Southern Kingdom's Princess, An Yaoyue.

An Xianyue originally wanted to marry the Third Marquis, but she and the crown prince had joined hands and escaped the marriage. However, by some strange coincidence, Junior Sister became the Third Princess.

The two of them looked exactly the same, like twin sisters.

bagpipes always felt as if he had caught on to something, but it also felt as if he hadn't discovered anything at all. A lot of information was mixed together, and his mind was in a mess.

Forget it, saving Junior Sister is more important!

After thinking for a long time, Piper finally couldn't think of anything, so he gave up on thinking about it.

They had been in the two residences for too long, and the night was almost half over. It would be inconvenient for them to move out at dawn.

The flute had to put in a lot of effort before finally getting the address of the third prince's residence from a drunkard on the street who had a hangover.

He knew more about the capital than his juniors. Although his Master was a little out of place, she was still quite reliable when teaching them.

As the saying goes, the Flying Dragon guard was the Emperor's eyes, ears, and tongue. The Emperor relied too much on the Flying Dragon guard, resulting in the Flying Dragon guard having too much power and influence.

Beijing was a place where the Flying Dragon guard was the most closely monitored. Therefore, it was slow in guarding. It could be seen from how easy it was to get out of the Imperial Uncle's residence.

Currently, the Flying Dragon Guard's power was not on the side. Empress Wang's brother, Wang Cheng, was merely the commander of the Flying Dragon Guard, but the Wang family's arrogance had long surpassed that of the imperial family.

Chu Yu was just a 'sitting emperor', while Wang Cheng was the 'standing emperor' with all the power in the world. The people of Xi Chen did not know Chu Feng, they only knew him.

Although it seemed as if the West State had risen from all over the world to become a peaceful place, in reality, it was extremely chaotic. Like a luxurious robe on the surface, lice crawled all over its back and were slowly corroding away the rotten dynasty.

The rules of the martial arts world stated that they did not ask about the affairs of the imperial court.

Being able to see through the situation so clearly, the God Thief would always make the wind flute drop an illusion. His master was not a bad old man who liked to drink and not bathe, but an expert who lived in seclusion.

Of course, it was only an illusion.

The security of the Third Marquis' Residence was much tighter compared to the security of the Crown Prince and the Imperial Uncle's residence.

With this thought in mind, the flute found a relatively secluded courtyard wall and carefully flipped over it.

He had just landed on the ground and found a place to hide, when he saw the light of the torches lighting up. The entire Third Marquis Manor was in an uproar.

"Catch the assassin!"

"Reward for catching it!"

"We can't let her escape!"

Feng Jianxue was in disbelief.

His martial arts skills were not at the peak of the martial arts world, but it was also a height that was difficult for others to reach. Even the guards at the crown prince's residence did not notice him, so how could he be discovered the moment he entered the third prince's residence?

He was at a certain distance from the wall, and the guards of the manor had already swarmed into the courtyard where he was standing.

They searched very carefully, covering every inch of the ground.

If he stayed any longer, he would be discovered sooner or later.

No matter how high his flute cultivation was, it was impossible for him to slip away without being discovered. He could only minimize the commotion.

Before the guards could find him, the flute made a leap into the air and quickly flew towards the wall.

"There's someone there!"

"Release the arrows!" We must not let the assassin escape! "

When the flute fell, he had to run and avoid the arrow. He was extremely careful, but unfortunately, the arrow still hit him in the back.

He staggered a bit and soon felt that something was wrong.

The arrow was poisonous!

The intense sports caused the poison to quickly spread, but at this moment, it stopped … Only death awaited him.

The wind flute fell in pain, but it did not stop for a moment as it continued forward.

Inside the Third Marquis' Mansion.

"Sir, your subordinate was incompetent and let the assassin escape. However, an arrow had hit her, and the arrow was highly toxic, so the assassin wouldn't be able to get far. "

"It's fine."

Chu Mu Han's guard, Tingyu kept her sword back into its scabbard.

"The person Prince wants to catch is a female assassin, but that person's body just now was clearly a male."

Besides, the prince wanted to catch him alive. If it wasn't for the fact that he was sure that the person who came was a male, how could Tingyu have ordered someone to release a highly toxic arrow?

"Then this person …"

"We still need to check." After a moment of silence, Qing Yin replied, "I'm not sure if it's that female assassin's accomplice." Pass down the order, the entire city must search for the assassin! "

"Yes, my lord!"

"What's the situation?"

A deep voice sounded.

The guards opened up a path, and a man in black robes walked over.

He reeked of alcohol, but his eyes were clear.

Everyone bowed, including Tingyu.

"Your subordinate pays his respect to Your Highness!"

Chu Mu Han casually waved his hand, "No formalities."

Qing Yu reported, "Your Highness, just now, in this courtyard, we discovered traces of an assassin. But... This subordinate is useless, and allowed him to escape. "

"Male?"

Chu Mou Han narrowed his eyes, a little surprised.

"Yes, Your Highness. A man in black."

"Oh?" Chu Mu Han's smile carried a hint of chilliness, "One or two, what kind of place do you treat my mansion as? the garden behind the young mandarin ducks' rendezvous with their lover? "

The woman who pretended to be his wangfei really wasn't simple, she had actually plotted against him in advance.

"Pass the order, the entire city will be searching for two assassins." The woman was alive, and the man was … on the spot. "
