Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 248 Yutang's Trick (4)
Mu Yutang was startled. The assassin leader was injured, and the wound hadn't been treated. Of course, there would be a bloody smell. She couldn't tell Chen Mingyuan directly. She blinked her eyes and thought of a suitable cover-up reason: "Young Master Chen General, you don't know about women having sunflower water, do you?"

"Is it really menstruation?" Chen Mingyuan stared at the pink-clothed maid, her eyes flashed sharply and coldly, the assassin was injured, it was a coincidence that she had menstruation.

"If you don't believe me, Major General, look for yourself." Mu Yutang walked up to the servant girl, her palm brushed over his arm, landed on the clothes behind him, and then quickly took it away. A series of movements happened between lightning and flint, quickly It's too late to react.

The little maid slowly turned around, and with her back to Chen Mingyuan, the rear hip in the center of the long skirt was indeed smudged with a small patch of red.

Chen Mingyuan's cold eyes gradually softened, menstruation stained his body, filled with the smell of blood, it was not surprising, the assassins were all men, Mu Yutang and the maidservant in pink were not accomplices.

"Farewell!" He greeted politely, without further delay, strode forward with dozens of guards, and quickly walked to the end of the alley, turned the corner, and disappeared.

In the corner, the girl in pink clothes bowed her head and looked up at Mu Yutang. The displeasure in her eyes gradually turned into admiration, and she said in a deep voice, "Thank you for saving me, girl!" man.

"You're welcome!" Standing outside the carriage, Mu Yutang casually agreed.

She followed the man in black into the carriage just now, helped the black-clothed assassin find women's clothing, and painted his face with female makeup, making him look like that ugly woman. When she looked at him suddenly, he was a weird ugly woman .

If Chen Mingyuan's eyes weren't so sharp, he probably wouldn't have noticed her, let alone suspected her. Who would have thought that an assassin dressed as a man would change into a woman's dress and hide in the carriage as a maid.

"The nearby guards have all left, you should go too, if Chen Mingyuan reacts, you won't be able to escape."

"Young lady, I will never forget it. Farewell!" The voice of the man in black thanked him. Mu Yutang heard a slight sound of breaking wind in the air, and turned around slowly.

A gust of wind blew by, and the Queen's stern reprimand was faintly visible, and the corner of Mu Yutang's mouth curled up into a sneer: Mu Zhen asked Chen Xianhe to help suppress the evil spirits, but unexpectedly, the evil spirits did not come, but a group of black-clothed men who were more difficult to deal with than ghosts came. assassin.

They stabbed the queen and fled without a trace. Chen Xianhe and Mu Zhen were not good at protecting the lord. If they haven't caught anyone to make atonement, the emperor will definitely reprimand them severely. Distribution border.

As expected, when the news reached the palace, the emperor was furious, grabbed the teacup in his hand, and threw it hard at Mu Zhen's feet. The porcelain cup was torn apart, the residual tea spread all over the ground, and many drops of brown water splashed onto his official uniform , He ignored it completely, knelt down on the ground, and repeatedly begged for mercy: "This humble minister has neglected his duty, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

In the imperial palace, the ace of the Imperial Forest Army was beaten by black-clothed assassins, and they were completely vulnerable. The emperor sensed a potential huge crisis, his face was gloomy, his eyes were sharp, looking at the cautious Mu Zhen, he felt extremely disgusted and angry. He said: "Under the bright sky, hundreds of imperial guards are no match for forty or fifty black-clothed assassins. How do you command them? It's not good for protecting the lord and hurting the queen. How can I forgive your sin?"

Mu Zhen's eyes were full of bitterness. He also knew that protecting the queen was the most important thing. When the long arrows came, he was prepared to protect her with his body, but the Imperial Forest Army guarded the queen, and he couldn't get close to the queen. Later, the assassins switched to long swords. The scene was extremely chaotic. As an unarmed civil servant, he couldn't even get close to the queen, and even if he wanted to protect her, he couldn't even intervene.

He only dared to slander these words in his heart, and dared not speak directly to the emperor. He kowtowed his head and kept begging for mercy: "My minister is guilty, please punish me!"

"The empress is already injured, what's the use of me punishing you?" The emperor squinted at him, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were full of displeasure, Duke Mu was young, and his mind was becoming more and more useless.

Turning his head to look at Chen Xianhe, he saw him kneeling on the ground, his body still upright, his face stern, confident, his voice softened a lot: "General Chen, what do you have to say?"

Chen Xianhe clasped his fists in both hands, and said in a deep voice: "The queen was injured, it's because of my negligence of duty, I'm willing to pay off my merits and arrest the assassins personally!"

Hearing this, the emperor's gaze slowed down a bit. Qinglong Kingdom needs this kind of confident and capable soldiers: "Does General Chen know who the assassin is?"

"Wei Chen doesn't know, but I have fought against them and is familiar with their martial arts routines, so I will definitely be able to find them!" General Chen's voice was sonorous and powerful, full of confidence.

Mu Zhen saw that the emperor's face softened again, his eyes fixed, and he echoed: "I am willing to make up for my mistakes, and I hope the emperor will do it!" He ruined his reputation and messed up things, if he doesn't make some achievements, let the emperor see , his position as Mu Guogong could not be kept.

The emperor doesn't like Mu Zhen, but Mu Zhen and Chen Xianhe are in charge of the queen's trip. It's not wrong for them to join forces to catch the murderer. He said in a cold voice, "I'll give you ten days to arrest the black-clothed assassin and bring him to justice. If it is not done properly, it will be dealt with by military law!"

"My minister obeys the order!" The emperor did not reject Mu Zhen's proposal. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Capturing the assassin is a big matter. The emperor is willing to hand it over to him, and he still has trust in him. He must seize this opportunity to catch the assassin. , meritorious service.

Swipe back Mu Zhen, Chen Xianhe, the emperor sits on the dragon chair, contemplates his eyes, he has personally tested the abilities of the Imperial Forest Army, none of them are weak, they are invincible in the capital, so far, the only two defeats, one is 18 Years ago, he was defeated by the elites of the Black Tie Army, and the second time was the black-clothed assassins today.

Xuan Tiejun had all died 16 years ago, who was the black-clothed assassin?The strength is actually comparable to that of the Xuan Tie Army?They assassinated the empress in broad daylight, obviously they didn't pay attention to him, the king of a country, and wanted to provoke him in the capital under his feet?Stupid as hell.

He dug three feet into the ground, and he wanted to find them all, smash their bodies into pieces, smash their bones into ashes, and see how they provoke them!
Mu Zhen and Chen Xianhe got the emperor's decree to mobilize 2000 people to search the capital extensively. The roads were closed and the intersections were strictly guarded.

Mu Yutang thought it was troublesome to check back and forth, so she just stayed at home behind closed doors, and went to Xuechen Building to attend class after the matter was over.

On a sunny afternoon, Mu Yutang was sitting on a recliner in the pavilion, feeling drowsy and drowsy with the breeze blowing. Ya'er walked over and reported softly, "Miss, the master is here. Do you want to see me?"

"Master? Which master?" Mu Yutang slowly opened her eyes, her pupils were covered with mist, and she didn't react for a while.
