Noble First Daughter-in-law

Mentioning King Qin, Yu Wenzhen's already somewhat solemn expression darkened again at this moment, but he still said immediately: "Not yet."

"not yet?"

This time, Yu Wenyuan's face clearly showed a displeased look, and he murmured: "He refused to follow me before, and then suddenly asked to wait until Ruyi went to Dayan Temple to worship Buddha before he could follow Yujia. I knew he was He only cares about his wife. That's all, but it's been a few days and he still hasn't come over yet."

Yu Wenzuo said: "Second brother, I'm afraid I encountered him on the road and was delayed."

Yu Wenyuan said: "What can we encounter? From Chang'an to Tongguan, it's only one or two hundred miles. You can't reach it by horseback or by car. You should be there on foot."

"..."

"Hmph, wait until I finish my work here before I go back and see where he is!"

Yuwen Zui was silent for a moment and said in a low voice: "Yes."

Just as the father and son were whispering, Yu Dingxing on the side had already walked to Yu Mingyue's side calmly, and said in a low voice as much as possible: "Where are your people?!"

"I--"

Yu Mingyue also had a somewhat uneasy look on her face.

The people she arranged should have been waiting on the other side. As soon as they saw Yu Wenyuan's chariot approaching Longmen Ferry, they should have immediately prepared to cross the river and report the abnormal situation on the other side.

How come it's been so long and you haven't shown up yet?

Just as she stretched her neck to look at the other side, she saw that the ferry slowly coming upstream was getting closer and closer to them. Once the boat docked, Yu Wenyuan would get on the boat. If no one came to report it by then, , even if she had prepared in advance, she could not stop the emperor from crossing the river without any reason. After all, she spoke without any evidence. Even if Jiang Chongen on the other side really set a trap to kill Yu Wenyuan, the emperor's suspicion would inevitably lead to his death. Will be suspicious of her.

She had made Yu Wenyuan unhappy before, but she finally made him happy this time. If she aroused the emperor's suspicion again——

Thinking of this, Yu Mingyue glanced at Yu Wenzui next to her.

At this moment, a horrified shout suddenly sounded from the busy river beach——

"Corpse! There's a corpse here!"

This sound exploded on the river beach like a thunderbolt from the blue. All of a sudden, everyone panicked. Several guards around them immediately held the swords at their waists and suddenly rushed over, surrounding Yu Wenyuan in the center, and were alert Looking around, Yu Wenyuan also had a surprised look on his face, but after all, he had been through battles for a long time, and the slightest movement was not enough to make him confused. He only frowned and looked in the direction of the sound.

It was on the river beach near the shore. A patrolling guard was standing next to a big stone, looking behind the big stone with a horrified expression.

There was also a surprised expression on Yu Wenzhen's face. Although he was not panicked, he was still a bit stunned. He hurriedly directed the people below: "Check and find out who it is!"

Several other guards immediately rushed over, walked carefully to the guard, and looked behind the boulder that was half the size of a carriage. Because it faced the Yellow River, half of the stone was soaked in water. There is another sunken pit under the stone, so when the royal driver just arrived here, everyone was so busy that they didn't notice immediately that there were two or three corpses piled behind this big stone!

Upon closer inspection, they were all muscular men in their thirties, dressed simply, with several stab wounds on their bodies. The blood had already been loosened by the river water, and even the wounds had been soaked and turned white and swollen.

It seems that he died not long ago!

How is this going?

Several guards did not dare to neglect and hurried back to report the matter to the emperor. However, Yu Mingyue stood aside and only glanced at it, her face suddenly turned pale.

At this moment, Yu Dingxing also walked to the big stone. After taking a look, he felt a strong uneasiness in his heart, especially when he looked back and saw his daughter's pale face. He walked to her side in a few steps. When no one was paying attention, he whispered: "These people are-"

Yu Mingyue bit her lower lip and nodded slightly.

Yu Dingxing's face suddenly turned pale.

These people are the people arranged by Yu Mingyue! They all died here! ?

what happened? Why is this happening?

Moreover, if someone discovered that these people were arranged by Yu Mingyue, how could Yu Wenyuan not doubt their reasons? !

He was frightened and panicked, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart with all his strength, and did not dare to say anything anymore. He was afraid that if the people around him heard a few words, they would be involved, but he was too scared in his heart, so he glanced at Yu again. Mingyue wanted to find some comfort from her, but she saw that her daughter, who had always been a strategist, looked panicked and even a little at a loss. This time, Yu Mingyue was also a little panicked.

Since she came to this world, she has been in control of everything. Even if she can't do everything she arranges, at least there won't be too many mistakes. But this time, things suddenly changed. And there was no warning at all beforehand, and what’s more, it was at the most critical moment!

Just when everyone on the river beach was panicking because of the sudden discovery of several corpses, another gust of wind carrying water vapor rushed towards them.

A huge shadow enveloped them.

When they looked up, they saw that the boat crossing the river had sailed down from the upstream and stopped in front of them!

As soon as she saw this gorgeous and grand ferry, and then looked at the corpses that had been surrounded by the guards, Yu Mingyue subconsciously wanted to say something, but the little concern in her heart seemed to be invisible. But the thread tightly tied to her heart made her hesitate; and at the moment when she hesitated, Eunuch Yu, who had been following Yu Wenyuan, suddenly took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, This old slave is so bold that I beg your Majesty not to cross the river!"

Upon hearing these words, Yu Wenyuan, who was already serious, his eyes flickered.

He did not speak, but just looked at Eunuch Yu. Although Eunuch Yu violated the taboo of the servants not to speak nonsense in front of the battle, he did not flinch at this moment and continued: "This time, although the two adults led the crowd to surrender, what will happen to the other side?" Your Majesty doesn't know what the situation is; now that a stranger's body suddenly appears here, I'm afraid things may have changed."

"..."

"For the sake of your majesty's safety, I beg your majesty not to risk your life easily!"

As soon as he heard that Duke Yu had spoken openly, the emperor did not immediately refute him, and did not even show the slightest anger on his face. The ministers who originally disagreed with the emperor's crossing of the river immediately gathered around and said at once: "Jade What my father-in-law said makes sense!"

"Your Majesty, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."

"Your Majesty sacrificed his body for the sake of petty righteousness, which is something that the ancients did not do!"

As soon as these people gathered around Yu Wenyuan, they immediately pushed away the few people who were standing next to him, especially Yu Dingxing and Yu Mingyue's father and daughter. The two looked at each other, and then looked at each other. Yu Wenyuan was furious, but nodded slightly, as if he was ready to retreat back to the embankment. Both of them had ugly expressions on their faces.

This time, even the credit for admonishing Yu Wenyuan was lost.

Their previous preparation was to "wait". After these messengers conveyed the strange news on the other side, they would then advise the emperor not to cross the river. This would be reasonable and well-founded, and the emperor would not be suspicious; and the reason for this The reason for the plan was somewhat "guilty as a thief". After all, it was not a trivial matter for someone to cause trouble and even try to trap and kill the emperor. If Yu Wenyuan thought that they were connected with the people on the other side, it would be troublesome.

But just because of this "guilty conscience", they did not dare to act rashly, so that even when these corpses appeared, Yu Mingyue still hesitated to speak.

At the moment when she hesitated, Eunuch Yu spoke first. As soon as he opened his mouth, all the ministers started to chime in. It became a matter of course. In fact, these ministers also discovered this on the river beach. After seeing the corpse of a stranger, maybe even an assassin, his instinctive reaction was to prevent him from crossing the river. It was more reasonable. Yu Wenyuan would naturally not suspect anything.

In the final analysis, it’s because they have a guilty conscience!

Thinking of this, Yu Dingxing felt frustrated and angry, but at this time it was too late to say anything. Several guards immediately escorted the emperor away from the river beach and boarded the embankment. Several other ministers hurriedly reported and asked the emperor to immediately Turn around the camp, or go back to Tongguan directly to take precautions.

But at this time, Yu Wenyuan calmed down.

Just a few corpses wouldn't frighten him completely back, not to mention that the situation on the other side had not been determined yet.

He walked to the pergola and sat down slowly. The steamy wind was still blowing, but this time the earthy smell lingering on the tip of his nose seemed to have a bit more blood smell. Yu Wenyuan looked at the green trees on the other side, which completely blocked the way to the east, and couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "What's going on on the other side..."

As soon as they heard this sentence, everyone's faces suddenly became condensed again.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they were speechless for a moment.

Obviously, at this time, His Majesty the Emperor has begun to have doubts about the situation on the other side, but one is Fan Chengen and the other is Jiang Chongen. Which one is the problem? Is it Jiang Chongen? Or Fan Chengen? Or do both of them have problems?

Or maybe there is nothing wrong with both of them, but there is someone else waiting for an opportunity?

Just when everyone was a little uneasy and their thoughts were turning over and over again, Yu Mingyue kept staring at the few guards below, who briefly inspected the corpses, and then walked back to the river embankment. , but Eunuch Yu reacted quickly and immediately came forward to greet him. After hearing those people's report, he walked back to Yu Wenyuan.

Yu Wenyuan asked: "What happened to those corpses?"

Yu Mingyue's breath was suffocated. She clenched her fists and looked at Yu Wenyuan and Eunuch Yu nervously.
