"Snapped!"
As soon as Leng Yun finished speaking, Wu Yuanzhang suddenly dropped the teacup in his hand to the ground and snorted coldly:
"In my humble opinion, you have spared others, but will anyone be willing to spare you? If you have such an idea, how can you become a big deal in the future? How do you know that Leng Xi is not interested in the throne? How do you know how many tricks Concubine Na Li has done in private? ?Don’t think that everyone in the world is as naive as you. Do you think that the emperor is as cowardly as he seems on the surface? No, if he didn’t use some ruthless means, he could achieve this position? So grandpa tells you, from now on, this Don’t say that again, I don’t want to hear it again.”
"Yooner realizes my mistake."
Leng Yun lowered his head, "I will listen to grandpa from now on."
Seeing that he was willing to lower his head and admit his mistake, Wu Yuanzhang sighed, frowned and said:
"From now on, just do whatever I ask you to do. Don't ask too many questions or pry too much. Everything your uncle and I have done is to allow you to ascend the throne smoothly."
Leng Yun stood up in time, bowed and cupped his fists at Wu Yuanzhang and said:
"Grandpa and uncle were kind to Yoona. Yoona will keep it in mind. If he achieves great things in the future, he will definitely not let down grandpa and uncle."
Wu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction. Even if Leng Yun was his grandson, he would only regard him as a tool to seize Daning's kingdom, because only this Leng Yun could board the throne smoothly after the death of the old emperor. Regarding the throne, this Leng Yun is another Adou who cannot be supported. Even if he is made the emperor, the country of Daning is still in the hands of the Wu family.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, with a proud look on his face.
Wu Hong was even more happy. According to his expectation, Leng Yu and others had now entered the place where he had ambush in advance. He just waited to hear the good news.
…
Leng Yu and his party walked on the road all day. As evening approached, Xiao Lingzi came over to report,
"Your Majesty, there is a village near here, should we stay there?"
Leng Yu glanced at Luo Lan, then opened the sedan curtain door and asked:
"The people in the village are timid. We might disturb them if we have so many grown men staying overnight. How far is the nearest town ahead?"
Xiao Lingzi looked forward and continued to reply:
"The nearest town ahead is five miles away, and there are three miles of mountain roads. It may not be easy to walk on the road in the dark. Do you want to go or stop? Please give me your permission, Your Majesty?"
Leng Yu frowned and lowered the sedan curtain door to look at Luo Lan, "It's a five-mile journey and takes about two hours. Is your health okay?"
Luo Lan knew that he would not disturb the people in nearby villages, so the only way was to move on.
She pursed her lips, smiled and nodded,
"I haven't walked a step. If the horse isn't tired, how could I be tired?"
Seeing her say this, Leng Yu nodded to her, opened the sedan curtain door again, and said to Xiao Lingzi:
"Let's continue on our way and find an inn to stay in the town ahead."
After Xiao Lingzi agreed, he galloped forward.
Today is February 13th. Although there are still two days before the 15th, most of the moon can be seen in the sky, so walking at night is much easier.
The group of people, in this quiet night, slowly moved forward.
This mountain road was rugged and bumpy, and it seemed a bit difficult for the horses to walk.
The night was very quiet, except for the sound of a group of horse hooves, there was nothing else.
Suddenly, Xiao Lingzi, who was walking in the front, tightened the reins of the horse and raised his hands with a solemn expression. The horse behind him stopped, and the carriage also stopped.
Little Twins stepped forward and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Lingzi looked around with a solemn expression and said alertly:
"I feel something moving, please be careful."
Leng Yu, who was sitting in the carriage, also felt something strange. He said softly with a solemn expression:
"Lan'er, follow me later."
Luo Lan knew that they must have encountered an ambush. She frowned and nodded heavily, "I know, sir, be careful."
As soon as she finished speaking, countless arrows flew out from nowhere. Without any time to think, Leng Yu directly picked up Luo Lan and broke through the roof of the sedan. The sedan was instantly shot into holes by arrows.
Outside, Xiao Lingzi and others were already fighting with a group of men in black. Leng Yu landed with Luo Lan in one hand and struggled with the two men in black.
The scene was a bit chaotic for a while. Although the men in black were not very good at martial arts, there were many of them, and more men in black kept pouring out from the darkness.
Xiao Lingzi, Xiao Shuangzi and others slowly approached Leng Yu and said loudly to him:
"Your Majesty, please take the princess and leave first. We will meet in the town ahead."
Leng Yu's face was dark and he said in a cold voice:
"If you want to stay, let's stay together. If you want to go, let's go together."
The little twins couldn't wait to shout:
"My lord, leave quickly. There are many people on the other side. Don't hurt the princess."
Leng Yu lowered his eyebrows, looked at Luo Lan in his arms, and nodded heavily, "Okay, you should be careful."
After saying that, he held Luo Lan with one hand, got on his horse, and under the cover of Xiao Lingzi and others, rushed out of the crowd and ran forward.
At this moment, a long arrow shot straight at them. As expected, they would be hit by the arrow.
Suddenly, two people on horseback rushed out from the darkness. They blocked Luo Lan and Leng Yu, knocking down the arrow that was rushing towards them, and stopped the men in black who wanted to catch up with them. They sparred together.
Suddenly, Xiao Lingzi subdued one of them and took off his veil. He frowned and asked,
"Who are you?"
Upon hearing this, an arrow suddenly flew out and shot directly into the man's chest. Then someone shouted:
"withdraw!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the men in black who were still entangled with Xiao Shuangzi and others retreated one after another, while Xiao Lingzi and others pressed forward step by step.
At this time, the man in black on horseback suddenly threw a smoke bomb. By the time Xiao Lingzi and others reacted, they had already mounted their horses and left.
Zhang Yuan quickly came to Xiao Lingzi and asked:
"Why did they withdraw?"
Xiao Lingzi twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a proud smile:
"Because they exposed their identities."
After saying this, he turned around and asked:
"Two people just protected the prince and princess from leaving. Where are they?"
Xiao Shuangzi, Xiao Ningzi and Xiao Tanzi shook their heads, and several other guards also shook their heads.
"I don't know. The assassins withdrew and they disappeared."
Zhang Yuan held his chin with one hand and muttered:
"Why do I feel that their figures are familiar? But I just can't remember them."
Xiao Lingzi frowned slightly and murmured:
"If I guess correctly, they are Ah Cai and Ah Hong."
Hearing this, Zhang Yuan opened his mouth in shock and shouted loudly:
"Ah Cai, Ah Hong, is that you? Where are you? Are you coming out?"
"Ah Cai, Ah Hong, are you coming out? Why did you leave suddenly? Is it you?"
"Acai, Ahong..."
