Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 255 Xie Chengwu's Deep Affection

"That's good."

The internal security team was satisfied with Li Kening's performance.

Look, even an eighth-rank official is so flexible, unlike Lord Xu who just can't understand no matter how much he hints.

"Your Majesty has further instructions."

Li Kening respectfully bowed in the direction of the palace and said, "Your Majesty, please give your instructions."

"Mr. Chen from the Ministry of Rites has been jumping around too much these days, impeaching Mr. Xu every day for building a women's college, which is simply against the will of heaven and not respecting the three obediences and four virtues. Your Majesty is a little annoyed. I wonder if your ancestors have any records of the Chen family's situation."

The inner guard raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Kening.

Everyone understands what Your Majesty means.

Lord Chen?

Li Kening smiled as he thought about it for a moment and nodded to the guard.

The inner guard nodded with satisfaction and left.

Then the next day, news spread in the capital that Lord Chen from the Ministry of Rites' ancestors were horse slaves.

How could Lord Chen tolerate this? Lord Chen prided himself on being a man of literary traditions, so how could he tolerate someone saying that he was descended from a lowly horse slave?

From that day on, Mr. Chen was busy attending various poetry gatherings, banquets, garden parties, etc.

There is only one topic, which is to explain that his ancestors were not horse slaves, so naturally he has no time to impeach Xu Jinyu.

Princess Lingyue, who had left Princess Tai'an's Mansion, got on the carriage and immediately looked at the nanny behind her.

"Madam Gao, are you sure that Princess Tai'an is the one who came up with the high-yield grain seeds?"

Although this Nanny Gao is called a Nanny, she is actually a member of the Dai Viet royal family who was raised since childhood. She is meticulous and can analyze the current situation from some tiny details.

He even has some skills, and this time he came along to help Princess Lingyue obtain grain seeds.

If you really can't get the grain seeds, you can find a way to buy some secret recipes from Tianji Pavilion.

For example, frosted sugar and rice paper are sold at sky-high prices in Dai Viet.

Grandma Gao's face was uncertain, and she frowned: "This Princess Tai'an doesn't look like a thoughtful person, but if she didn't have any ulterior motives, how did she keep the news of the overseas businessman secret?"

"For a whole year, no one knew where the overseas businessman was."

This is what puzzled Grandma Gao.

Given the greed of the royal family and the aristocratic families, they would only feel at ease if such things were in their own hands. How could they allow a woman of peasant origin to cause trouble in the court?

After frowning and thinking for a while, Grandma Gao couldn't come up with anything, so she could only say to Princess Lingyue: "I'm not sure, but let's build a good relationship with Princess Tai'an as planned."

"Whether she is pushed out by Daqian or really has something, there is no harm in having a good relationship with her.'

"And why do those people have such strange expressions?"

Princess Lingyue shook her head to indicate that she didn't understand either.

The two of them sat in the carriage in silence and returned to the Honglu Temple.

suddenly,

With a light "thump!!!" sound, a feather arrow hit the inner wall of the carriage.

Grandma Gao's eyes flashed, she held Princess Lingyue's head and lay down in the carriage.

“Princess, be careful!”

“Knock knock knock!!!”

After a few consecutive shots, the carriage was soon filled with feather arrows.

"Someone come! Protect the princess!"

Xie Chengwu's voice was heard, and the sound of swords clashing was endless.

Princess Lingyue lay at the bottom of the carriage, trembling all over: "Mammy, what's going on? How could anyone in Daqian's capital dare to attack me?"

Grandma Gao's consolation was a little pale: "I don't know, but there are guards here, Princess, don't worry."

The guards arrived quickly, and within a quarter of an hour, the noise outside died down, and those who had taken action were taken away.

Outside, the voice of the Royal Guards came: "I'm sorry to have frightened Princess Lingyue. Is everything okay?"

As to why the Imperial Guards were able to arrive so quickly, it was of course because of Xu Jinyu.

Xu Jinyu once said that as the heroine, wherever she goes, troubles will arise, and this is the treatment of the heroine.

Therefore, Emperor Xuan's response to the envoys from Dai Viet and Da Wu was to ensure that no matter where they went, there would be a team of guards following them.

I didn't expect it to actually come in handy.

"what!"

At this moment, Princess Lingyue screamed in pain, came back to her senses from her tension, and immediately felt the pain in her leg.

"Yuehua! What's wrong with you?"

A man jumped out from the guards of Dayue, directly lifted the curtain of the carriage and checked Princess Lingyue's body.

After discovering that there was a feather arrow stuck in Princess Lingyue's calf, his face turned ugly and he directly picked up the pale Princess Lingyue and ran towards the nearest pharmacy.

Grandma Gao blinked in confusion. Xie Chengwu was so fast that she didn't have time to stop him.

The guards who arrived were also stunned. They had known for a long time that the so-called male protagonist and the sweetheart of the female protagonist in the sad novel were among Dai Viet's guard team.

But the protagonist of this sad novel really doesn't take Daqian's imperial guards seriously.

The princess was taken away in front of the royal guards. Princess Lingyue was supposed to marry the Crown Prince, but she was taken away by a stranger.

Although Daqian has temporarily rejected the marriage proposal, isn't this a bit too open and aboveboard?

And why are you running? Shouldn't you go find the imperial physician now? How can a street doctor compare to the imperial physician?

However, Grandma Gao quickly found a reason: "Sir, the guard is just too worried. The princess's safety is related to the life and death of these guards. If something happens to the princess, these guards will die!"

The guard put on a polite smile and said, "I understand. I understand."

But he was muttering in his heart: I don't understand shit! All the officials in Daqian now know that your Princess Lingyue has a lover, that guard just now.

It’s a wonderful feeling to have all the news under control.

However, the guards were only intoxicated for a moment, and immediately began to order: "Come here, take these assassins to jail and torture them severely. They dared to assassinate the princess in the street. They are so bold."

"Also, let's see where the guards and the princess went. Let's follow them."

After the Imperial Guards reminded her, Grandma Gao quickly jumped off the carriage and ran in the direction where Xie Chengwu was running.

"Yuehua! Yuehua! You must hold on. You must hold on for my sake, too."

Xie Chengwu, who was holding the person, kept talking, and his eyes never left Princess Lingyue's face.

Princess Lingyue's face turned pale with pain, and her heart was filled with turmoil as she looked at Xie Chengwu like this.

Otherwise, let’s give it a try. Xie Chengwu likes me so much, how could he bear to make me sad.

Moreover, the Xie family is loyal and is a senior official praised even by the emperor. How could they possibly want to overthrow Dai Viet?

I must be overthinking it.

Xie Chengwu ran quickly and soon saw a clinic. He ran in and shouted to the doctor: "Doctor! Help! If you can't save Yuehua, I will tear your head off."

The doctor on duty was so frightened by these words that he stood up and hurried to check the woman's injuries.

After the examination, the doctor slapped his thigh and said, "Hey! Sir, you have come to the wrong place. I am not good at treating external injuries here. You should go to..."

"This guard should quickly take Princess Lingyue back to Honglu Temple. The imperial physician is waiting there." The imperial guard caught up with Xie Chengwu and said.

Xie Chengwu was stunned for a moment before he said to the imperial guards: "Yes, yes, yes, go back to the Honglu Temple. I'm too anxious."

After saying that, he hugged Princess Lingyue tightly and ran out.

Grandma Gao shouted: "There's a carriage!"

"Let me hold you. The carriage is bumpy, so be careful with your Highness's wound." Xie Chengwu had no intention of letting go of Princess Lingyue.

Princess Lingyue's eyes moved and she was even more moved when she looked at Xie Chengwu.

Look! Xie Chengwu loves her so deeply, how could he possibly hurt her?
