Chapter 224 Killing Intent

As early as when he saw Gu Qingchen's expression changing, Yuan Zhao subconsciously hid aside, not forgetting to give Princess Chaoyang a hand.

Almost as soon as Gu Qingchen finished speaking, an arrow shot straight at him.

With a sound of "Ding!", the arrow pierced straight into the door frame.

Looking at the arrow glowing with blue light, Yuan Zhao was afraid for a while.

If Gu Qingchen hadn't warned him, she would have been shot.

This arrow was aimed at her, and that's where she was standing just now.

Princess Chaoyang was completely stunned, and didn't recover for a while.

At this time, the guards of Princess Chaoyang also realized that something was wrong, and rushed in to protect Princess Chaoyang behind her.

When something like this happened, they naturally didn't stay long.

Princess Chaoyang hurriedly said goodbye to her and went back under the escort of the guards, while Yuan Zhao also boarded the carriage under the escort of Wenfeng and Linglong.

What surprised her the most was that Gu Qingchen stopped parading and rushed over in a hurry.

"Miss Yuan?"

he asked worriedly.

Just now, he was about to say hello to Yuan Zhao when he raised his head, but suddenly he saw a reflective thing, and that thing was facing Yuan Zhao directly.

He gave birth to a warning without thinking at that time, but who knew something happened.

He didn't know if Yuan Zhao had escaped.

"I'm fine, thank you."

"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet. Mr. Gu is now the No. [-] scholar with a bright future."

Hearing Yuan Zhao's voice, it didn't sound like something was wrong, and Gu Qingchen felt relieved.

"Thanks to Miss Yuan."

Without Yuan Zhao's help, it is unknown whether he would be able to enter an official career, let alone be the number one scholar today.

"Number One Scholar, continue to do your thing."

"I'll come and say thank you another day."

After Yuan Zhao finished speaking, he signaled Wenfeng and the others to drive away.

Because of this incident, there are not many people on the street, and many people have dispersed.

Gu Qingchen did not continue to parade, but followed Yuan Zhao's carriage and escorted him all the way, until he saw Yuan Zhao arrived at the General's Mansion safely, then he left.

The Yuan family father and son got the news and hurried back.

"Zhao Zhao, is there something wrong?"

Father Yuan looked his daughter up and down, and then he breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was not injured.

"What's going on? Who are you going for?"

At that time, there were only Yuan Zhao and Princess Chaoyang in the private room, and he couldn't figure out which of the two girls would deal with them!

"It's coming after me."

Yuan Zhao said calmly: "It should still be a matter of the princess mansion that day."

Yuan Zhao only told his elder brother about this matter, but Yuan Gu also told his father.

"Didn't it mean that Zhao Zhao couldn't be found?"

Father Yuan frowned and looked at his eldest son.

Yuan Gu frowned when he heard the words:

"There are indeed no traces."

He was very confused as to how the second prince knew.

"The second prince himself has behaved badly, and now he wants to kill someone and silence him."

"He really treats my General's Mansion as a display."

Father Yuan said angrily.

In the past two years, the struggle between the crown prince and the second prince has become more and more obvious, and many courtiers have taken sides.

The general's mansion did not.

Both the prince and the second prince had sent people to contact him, but he rejected them all.

He doesn't want to stand for anyone, he only pledges allegiance to the emperor.

After Yuan Zhao told her dream, he even lost allegiance to the emperor.

His current idea is to be a high-ranking and powerful minister, find a way to return to the border as soon as possible, and become a feudal official. When the time comes, the sky will be high and the emperor will be far away, and no one will be able to control him.

However, now that the second prince dared to touch his favorite jewel, he naturally wouldn't let it go.

Thinking of this, he said:

"The second prince has been in charge of the Ministry of War for a long time. It's time for a change."
