"Your Majesty, you have an idea, but you must not mess up."
With Yang Shu's assurance, Master Xie's tone became much calmer.
"I understand."
After sending the person away, Yang Shu took a sip of tea.
"Your Majesty, you brought the Second Lady in front of everyone today, I'm afraid it aroused a lot of suspicion." Pai Gow said in a deep voice.
Yang Shu raised his eyelids, "What are you suspicious of?"
"The country has not yet been decided, and they plan to take sides?"
"It will be more conducive to the development of Qinzhou if we screen out this kind of brains early."
"Is there any news from Wuzhou?" Yang Shu sat upright.
Pai Gow shook his head, "I think we're still on the way."
Yang Shu frowned, "According to the distance, Cui Tingyu should be here. I'm afraid he might be in danger on the way."
"Your Majesty, Pang Chang met along the road after receiving the letter." Pai Gow said.
"It's inconvenient to be far away, and it takes time to send messages. We can't rush there when Cui Tingyu leaves Huicheng."
Yang Shu looked towards the night, his eyes darkened.
…
…
"Princess." Shen Heng took off his coat and put it on Cui Tingyu.
"Your Majesty, is this not a coincidence?"
Cui Tingyu gathered his coat and his whole body shivered uncontrollably.
She divided into three teams and left Huicheng, and then broke away from the team. Unexpectedly, she was still found. During the escape, Shen Heng appeared and rescued her.
Cui Tingyu didn't believe it was just unintentional.
"Concubine Zhou is sinister. I was worried about the princess's safety, so I followed her all the way." Shen Heng said warmly.
"Princess, change your wet clothes first. You can't bear the cold weather." Shen Heng's eyes were filled with hidden concern.
"Make a fire." Cui Tingyu spoke.
"Princess, the assassins should be nearby. Lighting a fire might attract them." Shen Heng said worriedly.
"Shizi Shen, you don't know what it means when I change into your clothes, right?"
Shen Heng was silent, and there was only the sound of the howling cold wind in their ears.
After a while, Shen Heng looked at Cui Tingyu with a serious expression, "Princess, I have admired you for a long time. After tonight, I will ask the emperor to grant me a marriage, leave the house, and live with you for the rest of my life."
Shen Heng's tone was firm, and only Cui Tingyu's figure was in his eyes.
"The prince loves you so much, but I have no intention of getting married." Cui Tingyu said calmly without even a moment's hesitation.
Her choice is not Duke Dongyuan, and the love between men and women is the most unreliable thing.
It's strong today, weak tomorrow, you can't catch it at all.
Shen Heng's eyes dimmed and he forced a smile, "I'm offended."
"Princess, please change out of your wet clothes. I will not leak a word and will not damage the princess' reputation." Shen Heng advised, with bitterness in his voice.
"Wait a minute." Cui Tingyu looked at the night. She didn't want to get entangled with Shen Heng.
Shen Heng pursed his lips slightly, a gloomy look flashed across his eyes.
"Princess, someone is coming!"
The sound of subtle footsteps was particularly clear in the silent night. Shen Heng's expression changed, he grabbed Cui Tingyu and started to escape.
"Chase!" A rough male voice sounded.
"Light the torch, don't chase the wrong one!"
The distance between the two sides continues to shorten.
Cui Tingyu took out his hand and said, "Your Majesty, their target is me. Find a place to hide. When daybreak, the people from Dongyuan Palace will find you."
Cui Tingyu said, changing direction.
Shen Heng helped her several times, but if she couldn't give him what he wanted, she couldn't let others lose their lives.
"Princess, is Shen Heng a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? We will definitely be able to escape."
"Walk!"
Shen Heng held Cui Tingyu's hand tightly and pulled her towards the hillside.
"Princess!"
The shouts made Cui Tingyu stop.
Shen Heng frowned and looked in the direction of the torch.
"There's no need to run away." Cui Tingyu opened her lips, and the coldness between her eyebrows became lighter.
"Listen to the voice, it's not Guard Meng." Shen Heng held Cui Tingyu's hand and refused to let go.
"I'm afraid it's the assassin's plan."
The torch was getting closer and closer, and before Cui Tingyu could speak, Shen Heng pulled the person behind him.
Pang Chang was dumbfounded when he saw this scene. What's going on? A tryst between a man and a woman? Chasing the wrong one?
"Your Majesty." Cui Tingyu frowned when he saw that he couldn't pull out his hand.
"Princess." Pang Chang hurried over and pushed Shen Heng away, "My subordinates are looking for you!"
"Your Majesty, you can let go." Cui Tingyu looked at Shen Heng.
"I, I..." Shen Heng quickly let go, "I'm rude, I thought..." Shen Heng was a little incoherent.
Cui Tingyu's attention was not on him, "How did you find him?"
Pang Chang walked between Cui Tingyu and Shen Heng, took a few steps back, and forced Shen Heng back. "We were worried about the princess's safety. We came all the way after receiving the letter."
Cui Tingyu nodded, his vision getting darker and darker.
"Princess?"
"Princess!" Pang Chang held the person up, but his hands and feet had nowhere to rest. Why did he faint?
Through his clothes, he didn't touch anything!
Shen Heng wanted to step forward to check Cui Tingyu's condition, but was stopped outside by the guards.
"There is a village over there." The guard said to Pang Chang.
Pang Chang gritted his teeth and picked up Cui Tingyu. The king will definitely listen to his explanation!
Shen Heng followed silently.
…
…
"Your Majesty." Zheng Shao bowed and saluted.
"Have breakfast?" Yang Shu motioned for him to sit down.
"Not yet." Zheng Shao suppressed his excitement. He had been in Huining County for a long time, and this was the first time Yang Shu had been summoned.
"Pai Gow, ask the kitchen to bring some food over."
Yang Shu put the tea in front of Zheng Shao, "Your talent is higher than I thought. Master Lin was full of praise when he talked about you."
"Zheng Shao, can I trust you?"
Zheng Shao knew that his opportunity had come, and he quickly knelt down and said, "I am willing to die for the king!"
Yang Shu took a sip of tea and said, "Get up, if this is done well, the weapons supervisor will be yours."
Zheng Shao suddenly raised his eyes, his face full of excitement. He knew his origins. According to the system of the Yan Kingdom, he would only be a handyman for the rest of his life, but the king actually allowed him to be an weapons supervisor!
"Subordinate, this subordinate is dead!"
Yang Shu took out the drawing and pushed it over, "Take it, I can only stay there for a short time."
Zheng Shao did not hesitate and picked up the drawings with both hands.
"Don't rush to see it. Let's have breakfast first. Manager Ninth will send you there later."
He specializes in martial arts, and Yang Shu was very courageous in his previous life, but he really didn't dare to make a gun. This was no longer a daring thing, but he was tired of living.
He wanted to fix it himself. Whether he could fix it or not was not a question for now. Even if he could fix it, he would not dare to use it.
Afraid of exploding his head.
Without watching Zheng Shao eat, Yang Shu stood up and left.
"Your Majesty, the fighting started again. This time, the fighting was particularly fierce, and they were fought by a group." Fang Zhuang said in Yang Shu's ear.
Yang Shu threw fish food into the pond and said, "Take him to jail and lock him up for half a year."
"Those who deliberately stir up trouble will also be locked up."
"I will see how many people they can send."
"Qinzhou is not Jian'an. They can stir up trouble and waves with just one move. Even if the dragon comes, I have to control my territory."
Fang Zhuang responded yes, and before leaving, he wriggled his lips and said, "Your Majesty, feed him less, he can hardly swim anymore."
Yang Shu curled his lips, it was weird, he was competing with the old man in fishing, but the fish refused to bite his hook!
He was fed seven times a day, but Yang Shu didn’t believe it was not cooked properly!
