Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 242 Secret
Shen Wanyu glanced at the flower pot that she had accidentally kicked, and was startled.Knowing that this muffled sound will definitely startle the people inside.Glancing at the empty corridor, there was nowhere to hide.

The footsteps in the room gradually approached, and cold sweat broke out on Shen Wanyu's forehead.Flipping the palm of the hand, there was a silver needle shining with coldness in the palm of the hand.The whole body is tense in readiness, as long as that door is opened.She will quickly shoot out the silver needle in her hand, and then take the opportunity to escape.

Just as the door was about to be pushed open, the door to the left of the wing room was pushed open.Shen Wanyu felt a strong force pulling her over, and then covered her mouth with one hand.

Shen Wanyu looked at the person covering her mouth with surprise in her eyes, and met those narrow, dark eyes.There was a wicked smile in those eyes, and a head of jet-black hair casually draped over his shoulders.The bright red cotton robe set off his skin as white as jade, like a carved version of his evil and handsome features.

"I'll let you go, don't scream."

Third Master Qin raised his eyebrows and spoke lazily.Seeing Shen Wanyu nodding, she let go of her mouth.

Only when Shen Wanyu got it, she raised her head and looked at Third Master Qin suspiciously: "Master Qin, why are you here?"

Just as Third Master Qin was about to speak, he heard a cold male voice coming from outside.The two glanced at each other, listening to the conversation outside in a tacit understanding.

The second young master pushed open the door, and glanced at the kicked-over flower pot with his deep and cold eyes.A cold light and a faint sacrificial killing intent flashed in Wei Wei's eyes, and his lips pursed slightly.

His cold eyes glanced at the empty corridor, and finally landed on the wing on the left.

"Who is in this wing?"

The slightly fat middle-aged man followed his gaze and said after thinking for a moment: "I heard from the shopkeeper that the No. Friends."

The second son's eyes narrowed slightly, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Master Qin? Since we met by chance today, shouldn't we go say hello?"

He turned around and walked towards the wing on the left.

In the wing room, Shen Wanyu looked at Third Master Qin.Qin Sanye smiled slightly, pulled her and pushed her to the back of a cabinet in the corner.

"If you don't want to be discovered, just stay here obediently."

After finishing speaking, without giving Shen Wanyu any chance to speak, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she turned around and walked back to the table to sit down.Lifting the jug on the table, he gave himself and the man in purple who had been silent all this time a glass of wine.

"Zi Yi, come and try Ting Xuelou's owner's private wine. I have been grinding this wine for a long time, so he gave me a bottle."

The rich aroma of wine wafted from the mouth of the cup and permeated the whole room.You can tell how delicious this wine is just by smelling it.

The man in purple picked up the wine glass and put it to his mouth, taking a sip casually.Then he spoke lazily.

"Well, it's a good wine."

Suddenly there was a light knock on the door, and then a deep and cold voice came in from outside.

"Excuse me, is the third son Qin in there? Next to Chu Tianyu, I wonder if I can go in?"

Hearing these polite words, the man in purple raised his eyebrows slightly.His eyes calmly glanced at the place where Shen Wanyu was hiding, and then his eyes fell on Third Master Qin with an evil smile on his mouth.

"They came to look for you."

Third Master Qin put the wine glass in his hand on the table, and smiled wickedly: "He is Dakun's second prince, how can I keep him out."

After speaking, he stood up and walked to the door in person.He reached out and pushed the door open, and when he saw the people outside, his standard evil smile was already on his face.

"It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Second Prince, please come in quickly."

The door was pushed open suddenly, and he saw Third Master Qin with an evil smile on his face.His eyes lowered slightly, and he glanced at Mr. Qin's clean shoes.His eyes narrowed, and then he raised his head with a still expression of indifference.

"Excuse me, I don't know if it has delayed your entertaining friends."

Even though he said so, Chu Tianyu had already walked in.His narrow, dark eyes quickly scanned the room, and finally fell on the man in purple who was sitting at the table and drinking leisurely.

"Who is this?"

Qin Sanye came over with a smile, pointed to the empty place and said, "Please sit down, Your Highness, this is my friend Ziyi." After speaking, he smiled and looked at Ziyi who had put down his wine glass. : "Ziyi, this is the second prince, Chu Tianyu."

Ziyi raised her head, with a gentle smile on her face but she didn't speak.He just nodded his head as a greeting.

"It turns out that you are the young master Ziyi from the Purple Mansion in Ye City. You have admired your name for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you here."

The corners of Chu Tianyu's mouth twitched into a smile, but no matter how you look at it, it feels awkward.It's like letting a person with facial paralysis make all kinds of difficult expressions.

"I have admired the second prince's name for a long time. Who in Dakun knows that among the many princes, the second prince is the most stable."

Zi Yi spoke lightly, he was not surprised at all that Chu Tianyu knew his name.After all, Yecheng Zifu is the richest man in Yecheng.In the entire Dakun, except for the capital, Yecheng is the largest. It can be said that Yecheng and Kyoto are the two major economic lifelines of Dakun.

"Did the two of you hear any noise outside?"

As a prince, Chu Tianyu naturally has his own pride.For those who are obviously unwilling to deal with him, he will not be able to please.

Qin Sanye heard the words, and Ziyi glanced at each other before saying: "Your Highness the Second Prince, so you heard it too. It is said that the owner of Xuelou has a little black cat. When he is free, he likes to go back and forth on the corridor on the second floor He often kicked over the flower pots at the door. I think I accidentally kicked over the flower pots just now, which alarmed the second prince."

Qin Sanye said quite helplessly, and seemed to be used to such things happening.Everyone knew that Third Master Qin was also a frequent visitor to Tingxuelou, so his words did not sound suspicious.

"So that's it. It seems that the little black cat is also naughty." Chu Tianyu's expression remained unchanged, and his eyes swept around the room again.After making sure there was no one else, he stood up and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll leave first."

Third Master Qin didn't stop him either, he just smiled slightly and said, "Then I won't send it off."

Chu Tianyu nodded, turned around and took the fat middle-aged man out of Tianzi No. [-] room.After leaving the room, his cold eyes glanced at the closed door.

"Let someone investigate and find out if the owner of Xuelou has a black kitten."

"Yes, master."

The man in black who appeared from nowhere spoke respectfully, and then disappeared into the corridor strangely.

The fat middle-aged man frowned slightly and his face turned pale.The long and narrow eyes glanced at the middle-aged man coldly, and said with a sneer, "We are on the same boat, so the best way is to continue to cooperate."

After finishing speaking, he ignored the terrified expression of the middle-aged man at the moment, and walked downstairs.

In the wing room, Third Master Qin opened the door and let Shen Wanyu out after making sure that the person had left.

Shen Wanyu came out from behind the narrow cabinet, her eyes lightly glanced at the man in purple who was still sitting there drinking wine.He looked up and down, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, elegant demeanor.If he didn't mention his identity, no one would think that the Pian Pianjia in front of him would be a famous businessman of Dakun.

It can be said that the Zifu in Yecheng holds Dakun's economic lifeline, once something happens to the Zijia.Then the whole Dakun's economy will be in turmoil, so even the arrogant and indifferent second prince Chu Tianyu's attitude towards him will be different.

Her goal is to build her into her business kingdom, the difference is that she wants to make everyone fear her in the entire Kyushu continent.There is a saying that is good, if you want to gain real freedom to do what you want, then you must stand on the highest place.

Zi Yi seemed to feel her gaze on him, he raised his eyelids and glanced at Shen Wanyu lightly.The sharp black eyes revealed the shrewdness of a businessman. Just one glance at Shen Wanyu can confirm that this man is really a long-term businessman.

"The third master helped Wanyu again, I really don't know how to thank you."

Shen Wanyu smiled politely at the man in purple, and then looked at Third Master Qin who was looking at her with interest.

Hearing her words, Third Master Qin shook the folding fan in his hand with a clatter and said, "Miss Shen doesn't thank me, it's just a small effort. Besides, it's a great honor for Qin to help such a beautiful woman."

The corner of Shen Wanyu's mouth twitched, fanning in this winter.Isn't he cold?Still playing handsome?

"Hehe, then I have to say thank you too." Shen Wanyu looked at the time, she had been out for a while.It's time to go back, if they don't go back, Qiu Zhu and the others must be in a hurry.

"Wanyu is leaving first, so I won't bother the third master entertaining your friends."

Third Master Qin nodded, and didn't keep her: "Well, I won't give it away. If you have anything, you can come here to find me. Or tell the shopkeeper here, and he will notify me on your behalf. "

Shen Wanyu nodded, then pushed open the door and left without looking back.

After Shen Wanyu left, the man in purple, who was drinking quietly, said slowly, "Is she the woman the master likes?"

"Well, how is it? Is it suitable for the master?" Qin Sanye said with a smile. She was deeply impressed by Shen Wanyu's toughness in Wanfenglin last time.

A woman who is as perfect as their master and who can stand by his side cannot be the kind who is as soft as someone who just needs protection.It should be a woman who is as tough as Shen Wanyu and can stand shoulder to shoulder with her master.

The man in purple shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "I don't know her well, but I see her as a person. This woman is not simple. Give her enough time and space and she will grow up quickly."

A businessman's eyes are always very vicious, Qin Sanye raised his eyebrows.Wei Wei is a little surprised, he and Zi Yi have known and worked together for so many years.It was the first time I saw him commenting on a person whom I met for the first time like this, and I couldn't help but feel more thoughtful.

This Shen Wanyu might really be the one who can walk hand in hand with her master for a lifetime.

"Third Master, how does it feel to fan in the cold winter?"

The faint voice that came suddenly made Qin Sanye's hand holding the folding fan pause.Then he glared resentfully at the elegant drinking man in purple, and complained with the corners of his mouth raised.

"Zi Yi, you've learned badly."

As soon as Shen Wanyu left the room, her face turned cold instantly.Her clear eyes glanced at the flowerpot that fell on the ground, and the corner of her mouth curled into a charming but extremely cold arc.

She really didn't expect that the second prince would attack the evildoer.For a long time, she thought it was a battle for a reserve position.It will not involve evil spirits, after all, the attitude of Prince Han Mansion is very clear and has always been neutral.None of the factions participated, so what was Chu Tianyu's reason for killing the evildoer?
Shen Wanyu couldn't figure this out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.It is enough for her to know that Chu Tianyu wants to kill evildoers, since that is the case, then Chu Tianyu is her enemy.In the fight for the reserve position, she will definitely not let him get that position.

After tidying up her mood, a bright smile appeared on her face.Walk towards her wing, no matter what happens next.Only by developing her power first can she help the evildoer.

Qiuzhu and the others glanced at the door of the room, the young lady had been out for a while but she hadn't come back yet.

"Don't worry, Miss will be fine." Ruhuan looked at the worried look of Qiuzhu and the others, and comforted him: "Miss is no longer the helpless young lady she used to be. I haven't reached the ranks of masters yet. But the lady has a lot of poison on her body, whoever dares to hit her attention will be unlucky for the other party."

What Ru Huan said was the truth, Shen Wanyu didn't have much else.There are a lot of poisons, and they will poison the enemy without anyone noticing.

After thinking about the truth in Ru Huan's words, Qiuzhu and the others felt a little more at ease.And at this moment, Shen Wanyu also opened the door and walked in.

"I'm back, come on, let's continue drinking."

Seeing her come back, Qiu Zhu immediately walked over and helped her to his position.

"Miss, why have you been here for such a long time, we are all worried to death."

The corner of Shen Wanyu's mouth twitched, and then she said with a smile: "There are too many people relieved, I waited outside for a while."

Just a random reason, if you tell them what happened just now.It is estimated that they will worry again, so it is better not to say anything.Seeing Qiuzhu's dubious expression, Shen Wanyu quickly turned her attention away.

"Come on, keep drinking."

He poured himself another glass of wine and raised the glass to toast to Aunt Lan and the others.Soon the room returned to its previous enthusiasm.

After coming out of Tingxuelou, Shen Wanyu was already slightly drunk.Sitting in the carriage back to Hou's Mansion, she leaned against the wall of the carriage with heavy eyelids.

"Qiuzhu, tell Yufeng to get those ten people ready as soon as possible. Show it to me the day after tomorrow, and then let Shen Wu and Shen Qi no longer need to hide in the dark. From now on, they will be guards by my side."

Shen Wanyu's voice became lower and lower, and she could hardly hear it at the end.

However, the space in the carriage was small and very quiet, so Qiu Zhu could hear everything clearly.She nodded and replied, "Yes, Miss."

After explaining, Shen Wanyu fell into a deep sleep.She has to seize all the time to develop, the evildoers used to protect her.So this time, it's her who will protect him.

Thinking of Chu Mohan, the corner of Shen Wanyu's mouth unconsciously outlined a gentle arc.I don't know what he is doing at this time, and whether he is in danger.

Chu Mohan took his people on the road for days, but when they arrived at the border, they settled down in a small town not far from the Dakun military camp.

In the plainly furnished small room, Chu Mohan, who was wearing a moon-white brocade embroidered with a dark patterned padded jacket and covered with a thick off-white leopard-print fringed fur cloak, stood in front of the window.

Looking indifferently at the white snow outside the window, Xiao Bo's lips were pursed into a line.

"Master, the people in the barracks are now under the control of King Jing's people. And there seem to be soldiers from Nanli Kingdom inside, and Lord Han has also been locked up."

The man in silver clothes was half kneeling on the ground, frowning and speaking respectfully.

Chu Mohan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold gleam flashed in the long and narrow eyes.He didn't expect that his father was also imprisoned, which shows that King Jing's power in the border should not be underestimated.

"Can we find out whether Vice General Chen was forced to defect or has already defected?"

It would be better if it was forced, but if it was really a rebellion.Things are a little tricky, and now the barracks are under control.If he wanted the general's income back, he could only use his own power.But now he still doesn't want to expose his power.

"Vice General Chen rebelled. He was originally a friend of King Jing, and the two had a very close relationship. Since King Jing was sent to the border by the emperor, the two have been in close contact." The silver-clothed man replied respectfully.

Chu Mohan sighed, back then the emperor cared about brotherhood.Knowing that Vice General Chen, who was guarding the border, was good friends with King Jing, that's why he was expelled there.But who would have thought that this would lead to today's situation.

"I see. Let someone find out the evidence that Vice General Chen colluded with Nanli Country in an attempt to rebel as soon as possible. If there is no evidence, if necessary, forge some. He must be sentenced to death."

"Yes, master."

The silver-clothed man responded respectfully, then stood up and left the room.

Chu Mohan slightly closed his eyes, since the emperor is still unwilling to hurt King Jing.Then the charge of treason and treason can only be carried by Vice General Chen.No matter where this world is, it is full of darkness and injustice.It's so filthy, but people still have to live in this whirlpool.

The weak eat the strong, the winner is king and the loser is bandit.Only by constantly strengthening himself can he protect her and prevent the tragedy of the previous life from repeating itself.This road of pursuing strength is destined to be bloody all the way.People block and kill, gods block and kill gods.

Scarlet flashed in the long and narrow Danfeng eyes, and then calmed down again.If he is destined to fall into this turmoil, then let him fall.His little Yu'er just needs to live happily and recklessly, and do what she wants to do.

If she wants to be strong, then he will help her.Xiao Yuer, even if there are many obstacles on this powerful road, I will escort you.Because you once said that the only woman who can stand beside Chu Mohan is you.

Until now, Chu Mohan still clearly remembered that she was wearing a fiery red gauze dress at that time.The beautiful and moving face was full of determination, and the clear eyes were full of evil spirits, and they glanced coldly at the group of people who besieged them on Duantianya.

At that time, she stood in front of him who was seriously injured and covered in blood.Thinking proudly of the woman declaring his ownership, at that moment his hesitant heart settled down.

It was also that time that she died in his arms on Duan Tianya.The surge of memories flooded Chu Mohan instantly, and the sudden tearing pain in his heart made him wake up from the memories.

The slender hand covered the position of the heart, and he was almost suffocated just thinking about the pain there.One tragedy like that is enough, those who hurt him.He remembered all of them in his heart, this life is the time for them to pay back slowly.

This time the war with Nanli Country was brought forward by one year, so will the appearance of those people be changed because of this change?

A knock on the door came from outside, and Chu Mohan's face instantly returned to indifference and alienation.

"come in."

With a clear voice, the door was pushed open from the outside.A man in green shirt came in, smiled slightly after seeing Chu Mohan standing in front of the window.

"Master, it's better to close the windows, the border is much colder than Beijing."

Chu Mohan twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, but reached out and closed the window.Turning his head to look at the man in green shirt who walked in, his thin body looked very thin.Qingjun's face was pale and bloodless, and his whole body showed a sickness.

"Qingyi, you ran out with Xiaodie on your back again?"

Chu Mohan walked to the table and poured a cup of hot tea to the handsome man opposite, Tsing Yi took the cup and took a sip.Moist lips lifted, revealing a light smile.

"That girl Xiaodie looks at me every day, and today she went out to buy medicine, so I ran out to get some air."

Chu Mohan evoked a helpless smile, this couple has always been a troublesome couple in the building.

"Master, how are you going to solve the border issue this time?"

Chu Mohan leaned on his chin with one hand, with a lazy expression on his face: "Everyone is in their hands now, and Nanli's army is still watching. So this matter can't be head-on, but can only be planned slowly. "

Tsing Yi sighed slightly, his broken body is even worse now.If there is no accident, maybe he can still help a little bit.

"Well, if I'm still healthy, I might be able to share my master's worries, but I'm a broken body."

Chu Mohan frowned slightly, and his face darkened: "Tsing Yi, you know that I don't like what you say. If it wasn't for saving me, you wouldn't be like this after you tasted such poison."

Looking at the pale Tsing Yi, Chu Mohan's heart was full of guilt.That pretty little face suddenly appeared in his mind, and he thought of her medical skills.A strange light flashed in her eyes, maybe she could save Tsing Yi.

"Tsing Yi, tell me your symptoms when you got poisoned. Maybe someone can save you, but I don't know if you would like to follow me back to Kyoto after the border issue is resolved."

Tsing Yi was slightly taken aback, the poison on his body was extremely complicated.It is a mixture of multiple poisonings, and I have not given up looking for a doctor for so many years.But he was disappointed every time, but now the master said that someone could help him detoxify.
