After Princess Jiaojiao was reborn, the little general’s crematorium

Chapter 25 The Second Group of Assassins

"I swear to God that I will live an upright life and will never buy drugs on the black market. This matter is even more unfounded."

Chu Chuanping's tone was a little excited, and he knelt down again like a reflex.

Helian Wenyu stared at him seriously: "Then if I ask him to confront you, do you have any objection?"

"Your Majesty..." Chu Chuanping reacted a moment too slowly, his expression full of surprise, and even a hint of disappointment. "I have no objection. Since His Highness does not trust me, I am willing to cooperate with the investigation, even if I die."

"Are you sure?" Helian Wenyu still didn't give up.

"Well...this matter involves the Chu family's face. I must have His Highness' permission to let Chu Liuge cooperate with the investigation."

"Okay, then I will go to a nearby temple to meet your cousin first, and I will bring someone to confront you later."

After saying that, Helian Wenyu turned and left.

Throughout the whole process, Chunhua's eyes were constantly observing the other party's facial expressions, and she felt strange no matter how she looked at them.

This is definitely not influenced by the subconscious desire to kill the Chu family.

After leaving the Chu Mansion, Chunhua hesitated and said, "Your Highness, I think there is something wrong with Mr. Chu."

"Why do you see it?" Helian Wenyu asked as he walked.

Everything is messed up.

Helian Wenyu was in a depressed mood at the moment, and even her tone was not good. She also felt that Chu Chuanping's behavior was a little abnormal.

"I wonder if Her Royal Highness the Princess has noticed that Chu Sinong was obviously too excited when Her Royal Highness told Chu Sinong that he was identified by the shopkeeper."

"If it was his idea to send someone to Tianlao to assassinate the shopkeeper before, and when he learned that the shopkeeper had already confessed everything before that, it is normal to be excited."

"The shopkeeper is dead, so there is no need for him to worry about the confrontation."

"As for Chu Liuge, I think Chu Sinong knew that Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess was suspicious of him. He was confused because of this. In panic, he wanted to shift his attention to his cousin Chu Liuge."

"If it has nothing to do with Chu Sinong, then there is no need for him to do this."

However, after her analysis, she did not get Helian Wenyu's approval.

Looking back, she realized that Helian Wenyu had stopped at some point, and without realizing it, she walked in front of Helian Wenyu without even realizing it!

Helian Wenyu was looking at her with a smile on her face, but it made the spring flowers fall into the ice cave.

"You seem to want me to point the finger directly at Chu Chuanping?"

Helian Wenyu's gentle words made Chunhua break into a cold sweat.

Could it be said that Her Royal Highness the Princess already knows something? Or is it just a test for me?
  Chunhua was thinking crazily. At this moment, a group of forbidden soldiers suddenly came and quickly surrounded them.

"What are you doing? This is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess. Do you want to rebel?"

Chunhua shouted to the Imperial Guards who surrounded them to avoid the topic just now.

As expected, Helian Wenyu's attention was diverted, and she frowned and said, "What's going on? Commander Yuwendu, I hope you can give me an explanation."

It turns out that the leader of this group of guards is Yuwen Nai.

After Yuwen Nai heard Helian Wenyu's questioning, she felt her fists clasped and explained: "Your Highness, the eldest princess, forgive me, but a group of assassins just sneaked into the cell and assassinated the people that the eldest princess brought back yesterday.

"Two of them have been executed, and one of them escaped."

"The emperor is worried about the safety of His Highness, so he sent his ministers to protect His Highness."

"There's another assassin?!"

Helian Wenyu was quite surprised. Is this assassin a leek planted in the ground? I just cut batch after batch. The shopkeeper is obviously dead, so why are there still assassins coming to provoke him?

There was only one person here last night, and today it was even more outrageous. They actually joined the group, right?

Yuwen Nai was also quite angry. He really thought that the emperor had no one left. I don't know what these assassins took him for. They really didn't take him seriously at all.

"Where is the assassin now?" Chunhua asked.

She needed to change the topic further, lest Her Royal Highness suddenly pay attention to the topic just now.

"Now he is fleeing in Xifang." Yuwen Nai replied.

The Chu family is also a noble after all, so naturally they don't live in the west district, but in the southeast of the city, so they are completely different from the assassins.

And Helian, Wen and Yu had just come out of the Chu Mansion and were still far away from Xifang.

Helian Jingxi sent the imperial guards to protect them, more as a precaution.

The Imperial City is in the North District. Most of the people living in the West District are businessmen and civilians, while the East District is home to aristocratic families.

"Your Highness, the eldest princess, let me escort you back to the imperial city." Yuwen Nai still felt that the streets were unsafe and said.

Although he is not afraid of assassins, he is afraid of accidents.

What if this group of assassins has accomplices?

What if a hidden arrow suddenly shoots out from somewhere in a B&B?

Once His Highness the Eldest Princess is really hurt, given the Emperor's concern for Her Royal Highness, I'm afraid even nine of his heads won't be enough to chop him off.

Of course, Helian Wenyu was not willing to go back like this. She said: "With the general's bravery, coupled with dozens and hundreds of guards, is it possible that he is afraid of a small assassin?"

"If that's the case, what's the use of the royal family raising you?"

Helian Wenyu's words were unpleasant to listen to, but for the sake of this, Yuwen Nai had no choice but to have people strictly vigilant on both sides and evacuate the crowd at the same time.

Looking at the deserted street, Helian Wenyu frowned, but considering that they were thinking about their own safety, she didn't say anything.

"Your Highness, the eldest princess, do you have somewhere else to go?"

Yuwen Nai asked, cupping his fists.

I don't know if Luo Zhoubai, the deputy commander, caught the assassin.

It's so rampant - this is the capital's prison. Since two groups of assassins visited the same place in less than 24 hours, it really doesn't give them any face.

Chunhua felt doubtful in her heart. Could it be that she had taken action again?
  But didn’t she just come yesterday?

Everyone who deserves to be killed is already dead, why is she here this time?
  This time, neither Helian Wenyu nor Chunhua considered the Chu family.

After all, even if he had just left the Chu family and Chu Chuanping hired an assassin, the assassin would not have time to get to the prison.

Unless he hired it in advance.

Helian Wenyu herself didn't know where she wanted to go. There were so many people now, and it was hard to go to the temple to find Chu Liuge, so she said, "Let's go outside the city and have a look."

"The eldest princess wants to go outside the city?!"

Yuwen Nai felt that she was going to collapse. If she had known it, she would have caught the assassin and asked Luo Zhoubai to come over to protect the eldest princess.

Who doesn't know that the most dangerous place outside the city is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and all three religions and nine streams. If something happens, who can afford it?

What's more, once the assassin succeeds, he will immediately retreat outside the city. In other words, the assassin may have arranged for someone to respond outside the city, or even the assassin's base camp may be outside the city.

At this point in time, shouldn't a powerless eldest princess stay in the imperial city and cooperate with the officers and soldiers to catch the assassin?
  Why did you still hit the assassin's gun?
