Chapter 36 I'm Waiting For You
Three days later, the Ninth Prince handed over all the affairs of the Ministry of War to the Sixth Prince. During the period, he also handed over a note to the Emperor, and recommended Song Youda as the commander of the front of the palace, which was accepted by the Emperor.

When Song Youda received the promotion order, he was full of gratitude to the Ninth Prince in his heart. Su Qi'an was jealous and would never give him such a good opportunity.

After taking office, he did not rush to go to the Sixth Prince's Mansion, but decided to go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion first to thank him.

At dusk, Song Youda was riding a horse on the way to Xie En, when suddenly countless bows and arrows were fired, and a large number of guards behind him fell off their horses.

More than a dozen men in black rushed over from all directions, and Song Youda immediately drew his sword to fight with them, but these men in black were powerful in martial arts, and they fought fiercely. He only brought a few entourages with him today, and he was a bit outnumbered for a while.

A sharp sword was pointed at the person in front of him, he raised his hand and attacked in a dislocation, but he had no time to care about the person coming from behind, a bloody gash was drawn on his back immediately.

When someone saw an opportunity to stab him in the chest, someone blocked him with a sword and forced the man in black back. At that moment, a large number of guards appeared, and within a few quarters of an hour, all the men in black were killed.

When Song Youda was brought into the Ninth Prince's mansion, he knelt on the ground to thank him: "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving me."

Chu Dai smiled warmly: "Song Guanjun doesn't need to thank you, the king has invited a doctor for you."

Song Youda looked at Chu Dai and Pei Xun in front of him, and immediately kowtowed: "Thank you Your Highness and Mr. Pei for your promotion."

Pei Xun said indifferently: "In the entire Sanya, only you, Song Youtao, can serve as the commander in front of the palace. Your Highness and I are just sharing the emperor's worries and recommending talents."

As soon as these words came out, Song Youda was even more admiring, but today they rescued them too timely, which made him feel a little suspicious.

Pei Xun knew what he was thinking, so he asked, "Do you know who is going to drive you to death today?"

Song Youda thought for a moment: "This... please tell me clearly."

Pei Xun took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to him: "Let's take a look at the secret letter intercepted last night."

After Song Youtao opened it, he found that it was Su Qi'an's handwriting. After reading the contents, he felt grief and indignation: "I, Song Youtao, have followed him for so many years, and this is what I got in return! I'm going to find the messenger!"

But Pei Xun stopped him in time: "Song Guanjun, do you really want to fight against His Royal Highness Six and Master Su?"

Song Youda stopped in his tracks. In this letter, Su Qi'an suspected that he had already betrayed His Highness Nine, so he sent someone dressed as His Highness Ninth to assassinate him. After he succeeded, he would blame His Highness Ninth, so that he could kill two birds with one stone.

If he openly went to the messenger, it would be tantamount to breaking his face with Su Qi'an, which would not do him any good.

Then he was a little at a loss and said: "According to your lesson, what should I do with a humble job?"

Only then did Pei Xun say: "When you go back today, you just pretend that nothing happened and continue to take up your post. But it's a coincidence that we can save you this time. Will we be able to protect you next time..."

Song Youda no longer had any doubts about the letter at this moment, because the handwriting in the letter was indeed written by Su Qi'an, and Song Youda understood his brutality best.

Hearing Pei Xun's words, he immediately knelt down and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness is willing to serve His Highness Nine and Lord Pei!"

After Song Youdao left, Chu Dai, who had been playing chess with Pei Xun, said, "Have all the people who attacked Song Youdang been dealt with?"

Pei Xun smiled: "Don't worry, Your Highness."

These days, Su Qi'an's men searched the capital extensively, but Jiang Youzhi's private residence was relatively safe, and no one disturbed him within three days.

Today, she was studying flowers and plants in her room, when she saw Mi'er running over and said, "Girl, the master is here!"

Jiang Youzhi was eager to understand the situation outside, turned around and ran out without thinking. When he reached the study, he ran so anxiously that he almost ran into Pei Xun.

Pei Xun immediately held her two wrists to help her stand still, seeing her unsteady breathing, he said, "Why are you so impatient?"

Jiang Youzhi asked anxiously: "Did Su Qi'an bother you at the mansion again?"

Pei Xun let go of his hand, and walked towards the desk: "Don't worry, he didn't find anyone that night, so naturally he won't do it again."

Jiang Youzhi walked up to him, looked down at his toes, and said cautiously: "Maybe I'm really a trouble, if it wasn't for me, Su Qi'an wouldn't be so tit-for-tat with you, and the emperor wouldn't suppress you... "

Hearing her increasingly sad voice, Pei Xun raised his eyes and looked at the corners of her red eyes: "I don't care."

Jiang Youzhi didn't expect him to say that, raised his head, and looked at him with some puzzlement: "But now I am a fugitive wanted by the imperial court, and you are a model civil servant in the eyes of the people, it is always bad to get infected with me... "

Pei Xun looked at her fixedly: "It's just a false name."

Only then did Jiang Youzhi feel that the time was ripe, and said pitifully, "My lord, if the emperor orders you to hand me over, will you do so?"

When she asked this question, she was naturally a little apprehensive, for Pei Xun, she was really not sure.

Pei Xun picked up the pen, and while writing, he said: "Tomorrow Su Qi'an will ask me to compete with me in the riding and archery competition. I will not give him the chance to do that."

Almost instantly, Jiang Youzhi understood what Pei Xun wanted to do, but it would be premature and rash to act now.

That night, she slept extremely unsteadily and panicked. For some reason, she had a vague premonition.

In the early morning of the second day, Pei Xun was ready to go, and he said to Ah Chang: "Ah Chang, strengthen the martial law in the mansion, you stay."

Ah Chang didn't expect Pei Xun to let him stay, so he said anxiously: "My lord, this trip is extremely dangerous, let Ah Chang accompany you!"

Pei Xun just stretched out his palm: "No need to say more."

"set off!"

But as soon as the words fell, a female voice came from a distance: "My lord!"

Jiang Youzhi ran a little anxiously, out of breath: "My lord, this is a safety talisman."

Then, regardless of whether Pei Xun agreed or not, he helped him tie it on his belt.

She raised her eyes and met his gaze, the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense, and her brows were slightly frowned.

Pei Xun saw that something was wrong with her: "Is there anything else to say?"

Jiang Youzhi said solemnly: "My lord, you must be well."

Pei Xun nodded and was about to turn around, but Jiang Youzhi grabbed his sleeve again.

There was a desperate tremor in her voice: "My lord, no matter what, you must come back. Remember, I am waiting for you."

Pei Xun turned back and said, "Stay here, don't go anywhere, don't listen to anyone."

Jiang Youzhi nodded, looking at his leaving back, there was a trace of nostalgia in his eyes that he hadn't even noticed.

She has been sitting on the stone steps in front of the study for an hour, and even Ah Chang persuaded Jiang Youzhi to go back to her room and wait, but she still insisted on waiting here.

Suddenly, she beat the little maid passing by her and almost fell down accidentally, so she got up to help her.

"Thank you, Miss Jiang."

After the little maid thanked her, she left, but only Jiang Youzhi understood that she just took the opportunity to stuff a note into her hand.
