Chu Yunfei turned around and stared at her back expressionlessly, with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
assassin?
What a lame trick.
"Rong Cang." Chu Yunfei turned around and looked at Rong Cang casually: "Your secret has been exposed."
Rong Cang's expression remained as usual: "It doesn't matter."
"Your Majesty." The guard leader came quickly with his men and knelt down when he got close. "You despised your duty and allowed the assassin to break into Yilan Court in a majestic manner and hurt the concubine. I deserve to be punished by you, Your Majesty!"
"Has the assassin been caught?"
"No." Mo Ling lowered his head, "My subordinates have never seen any trace of the assassin."
"The spine stick is fifteen." Rong Cang said coldly, his voice as cold as iron, "Next time, you don't have to stay in the palace."
"yes."
Rong Cang ordered: "Changqing, send someone to send a message to Qi Jin and ask him to come to the palace in the afternoon."
"yes."
Rong Cang accompanied Chu Yunfei to Yilan Courtyard. Along the way, the mansion was as quiet as ever. There were no signs of damage to the flowers, plants and trees from the fighting. It didn't look like an assassin had come.
However, Chu Yunjiao seemed to have been greatly frightened, his face was as pale as paper, his injured arm was dripping with blood, and a sleeve cut off by scissors was stained with blood and dyed dark red.
Ah Lu is bandaging her wounds.
Chu Yunfei stood at the door and took a look, secretly thinking that it was just as expected.
King Chen hadn't seen Chu Yunjiao recently, so he probably couldn't sit still. He arranged this scene of the assassin stabbing Chu Yunjiao just to judge whether Rong Cang was still under control.
Princess Chen had just seen with her own eyes that Rong Cang was intact. When she went back to tell Prince Chen, the couple was afraid that they would get angry and lose control again.
Chu Yunfei twitched the corners of his lips and turned to leave with Rong Cang.
After returning to Shuanghua Courtyard to wash up and change clothes, Chu Yunfei sat down in front of the window, holding a cup of hot tea. Outside, Grandma Xiong and Grandma Lu came over to apologize.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Nanny Lu knelt on the ground and spoke uneasily, "When did the assassin come to the mansion? I don't... I don't know. It's just Princess Chen..."
"Has Princess Chen gone to Yilan Courtyard?"
Nanny Lu shook her head: "The old slave has been waiting in the front hall. Princess Chen drank a cup of tea and sipped some snacks and did not move around the palace, but later... Later she mentioned the two passers-by sent by the imperial concubine. The concubines who served in the room said they wanted to see them, but the old slave did not dare to disobey, so he took them out."
Chu Yunfei narrowed his eyes, so that was it.
It seems that Chu Yunjiao's arm was either injured by the two concubines, or Chu Yunjiao listened to the two concubines' message and scratched it with a dagger.
The Prince of War's Mansion was guarded like iron barrels. If an assassin really came in, he would probably have been shot to pieces.
Rong Cang obviously expected this result and understood that Princess Chen came here today just to see Chu Yunjiao, but Chu Yunjiao had previously ordered that Chu Yunjiao was not allowed to leave Yilan Courtyard.
So Princess Chen changed her mind and directly asked to take out the concubine given by the imperial concubine.
Chu Yunfei raised the corners of her lips and had to admire Princess Chen's persistence in not giving up until she achieved her goal.
"Get up." Chu Yunfei said, "If the prince and I are not here from now on, anyone who comes to the palace will be turned away. Don't let them in."
"yes."
"Didn't the prince summon Prince Qi?" Chu Yunfei raised his eyes and looked at Rong Cang, "Go and do your work. I'll rest here for a while."
Rong Cang hummed: "I'll come as soon as I go, and we'll have lunch together later."
After that, he told Shengxia and Baochan to take good care of the princess, and then got up and went to Jinlin Courtyard.
Qi Jin arrived at the palace half an hour later and went straight into Rong Cang's study.
"How are things going lately?"
"Qianqi has been completely caught up in the pleasure of winning money. He doesn't care about the poison. He even plans to fly away after winning enough money." Qi Jin said, "He is betting bigger and bigger now. The money King Chen gave him can no longer satisfy his appetite."
In fact, King Chen has paid a lot of money to Qianqi over the years.
It's just that Qianqi has been going to the gambling house every once in a while since he got into gambling. He loses more and wins less. He goes as soon as he gets the money every month.
Three to five hundred taels of silver was not enough to lose in half a day. Over the years, he lost countless coins, so there was not much money left after being paid every month.
If he had kept saving this money, he would have been able to leave the capital and live happily alone.
During the recent period when he was led by Qi Jin, he won money every day, and the silver flowed into his pocket like running water. It had a big impact on people who have been losing money all year round, especially after winning for several days in a row. The amount of money was getting bigger and bigger, making him feel in a daze that he was finally favored by the God of God. The money was pouring into his pocket in a steady stream. How could he still have the strength to resist?
You can get a lot of money just by rolling the dice on the gambling table. You don't have to spend your energy and energy to raise poisonous poisons. You can even get greater happiness from it than raising poisons. For gamblers, nothing can replace this kind of pleasure.
However, there is an unwritten rule in the gambling house.
For experienced gamblers, those who lose money can leave at any time. Those who win money can only leave if the loser says so. As long as the other party does not speak and there is still a bet in his hand, the game must continue until one party Until all is lost.
Therefore, when King Chen learned that Rong Cang was not controlled by the mother voodoo in Chu Yunjiao's body, and urgently summoned Qian Qi to return to the palace, there was no reply.
The reward from the servants in the mansion was: "Master Qianqi won money, but several wealthy young men refused to let him go."
"They won't let him go if they don't let him go?" King Chen roared coldly, "Bring him back immediately!"
The young man took the order and left with two guards.
King Chen was pacing the room like a trapped animal, with anxiety and disbelief that could not be concealed on his face: "What is going on? Why is Chu Yunjiao injured, but Rong Cang seems to be fine? No wonder I, the king, have been injured recently. I always feel that something is wrong and everything is not going well, but it turns out that it is really... Damn Qianqi! Every time I ask him, he says that he is under control. He only gambles every day and does not do business. I have raised him like this in vain. for many years!"
He wanted to see how Qianqi would explain this matter.
"Your Majesty, please be calm." Princess Chen was also uneasy, but she still comforted her warmly, "Maybe there was just something wrong, maybe the arm was injured and it didn't work? Or maybe after so many years, Chu Yunjiao and Zhan Something happened to one of the two Wangs..."
"No matter what the reason is, Qian Qi can't escape his involvement!" King Chen couldn't hide the gloomy anger on his face, "Why do I feed him? I have spent hundreds of thousands of taels of money on him over the years. He can't even do this, and he says it's foolproof every day, but what's the result?!"
Princess Chen's face turned pale and she carefully guessed: "Is it possible that the child Gu did not sense the mother Gu because the War King went to the Chu family today and was a little far away from Chu Yunjiao? Maybe... maybe after returning to the War King's Mansion, Rong Cang has already reacted, how about we send someone to investigate?"
King Chen gritted his teeth, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of gloomy dark clouds, and his eyes were filled with the impending storm.
Damn Chiki.
He wished he could cut him into pieces.
If he loses his use value, just because he has spent so much money in Prince Chen's Mansion over the years, but ultimately fails to give him the results he wants, he can let him die without a burial place!
