I’m The Vicious Cannon Fodder In The Book - Chapter 48
Standing upstairs, Luo Shuyu didn’t think for a while that the private room he was in would be in danger. He thought that Li Mingjin turned over and dismounted because he was in a hurry to come up to see him.
After closing the window, Luo Shuyu returned to his seat, and the shop assistant gave him a pot of good Yunding Mountain fog.
I tasted it, it was really delicious.
It is not easy for people to pick tea in the mountains, so they want to drink another cup.
Just when he was about to pour another glass, a cold knife was placed on his neck: “Don’t move.”
Qing Wang, who had just stood by Luo Shuyu’s side, was knocked unconscious and fell to the ground.
Luo Shuyu held the teapot’s hand for a moment. He never thought that he would be in danger, but he quickly calmed down: “Are you the assassin they are looking for?”
The assassin behind him said, “I know you are the third prince concubine.”
Luo Shuyu guessed that the person who came should cover his face and his voice was suppressed, so he couldn’t tell whether he had heard the person’s voice.
He has already died once, of course he is not afraid of death.
Luo Shuyu put down the teapot with one hand and turned the teacup with the other, as leisurely as in the mansion.
He tried to keep his composure: “Then you are really amazing, I’m not a big man, I’m just a person who is greedy for life and fear of death, please don’t scratch my neck.”
The assassin said: “I don’t think you are afraid at all. The third prince is different from what I imagined. You are very calm, and many men are not as calm as you when they are in trouble.”
Luo Shuyu: “Really? It’s no use holding me hostage.”
The assassin said: “Whoever said it was useless, it came when it was useless.” It was the third prince who was chasing him.
As soon as he finished speaking, the assassin’s knife was on Luo Shuyu’s neck, just as Li Mingjin kicked in!
Li Mingjin drew a sword out of nowhere and pointed at the assassin behind Luo Shuyu: “Let him go!” He turned and asked Luo Shuyu, “Yu’er, are you alright.”
“His Royal Highness, I’m fine.” Luo Shuyu’s voice was calm, which had the effect of soothing Li Mingjin’s nervous heart.
Assassin: “Just like the rumors, although the third prince and the third prince’s concubine were married not long ago, they were deeply affectionate and envious of others.”
Li Mingjin said coldly: “Let go of him. If I hurt him in the slightest, I will kill your dog and smash your corpse into ten thousand pieces!”
Assassin: “Don’t worry about the third prince, I also have the beauty of an adult. As long as you let me go, I will naturally let go of the third prince.”
Li Mingjin said without hesitation, “Okay.”
No one’s life is as important as Luo Shuyu’s. If the assassin ran away, he will catch him again next time.
Assassin: “Get me a horse, water and food for three days.”
Li Mingjin: “Okay, you let him go now.”
The assassin chuckled: “Is the third prince stupid or I am stupid, and I will naturally release the third prince and concubine when I leave the city.”
Li Mingjin stared at the assassin behind Luo Shuyu.
Luo Shuyu was afraid that he would not be able to control himself as soon as his emotions got up, so he said: “Your Highness, promise him that I will be fine, why don’t you prepare a carriage for us to go out of the city first, Your Highness will pick me up from the city, I believe he will not kill me. “Luo Shuyu has an idea in mind.
Assassin: “It’s still the third prince and concubine Mingli.”
The gate of life was pinched, and Li Mingjin had to prepare what he needed for the assassin according to Luo Shuyu’s proposal.
Luo Shuyu just didn’t know where the complete assassin came from.
Now waiting in the private room, he has time to ask.
Luo Shuyu twisted a piece of cake and put it in his mouth: “Who did you assassinate?”
Assassin: “Of course, to assassinate some people who shouldn’t live in this world.”
Luo Shuyu: “Is it a family hatred or a national hatred?”
The assassin is not stupid: “The Third Prince Concubine is lying to me.”
Luo Shuyu shrugged: “It’s boring to sit, it’s better to knock melon seeds and talk.”
The assassin was stunned for a moment, then said with a muffled laugh: “The third prince is really not an ordinary person, no wonder even the tyrannical people like the third prince have deep feelings for you.”
“This is a bit exaggerated.” Luo Shuyu also talked to him at home.
The assassin suddenly showed off again: “I assassinated the prince of your Daxia Kingdom, isn’t he very heroic?”
Luo Shuyu was stunned for a moment, but his expression was fleeting.
After all the people in Fumanlou were evacuated, Luo Shuyu and the assassin got into the carriage prepared by Li Mingjin.
As long as anyone who received the rumors knew that the assassin had kidnapped the third concubine.
For a time, the entire imperial city was on alert.
This assassin is too daring, doesn’t he know that the third prince is still the one who will pay revenge? To actually dare to hold his imperial concubine hostage is a ruthless person!
Li Mingjin was afraid that the assassin would hurt Luo Shuyu, so he rode his horse and followed the carriage, but the assassin threatened him with a knife and followed from a distance.
Luo Shuyu wanted to give Li Mingjin a secret code, but the two of them seemed to have never practiced tacit understanding, so he might not even know the secret code.
However, he still secretly made a gesture to calm Li Mingjin, hoping that he would think hard.
Li Mingjin’s ability to survive to this day is inseparable from his intelligence.
There is only one assassin, and Luo Shuyu is now his gold medal for avoiding death, so he doesn’t dare to do anything to him.
Fortunately, the fur coat Luo Shuyu wore today was newly made by Li Mingjin before winter. Sitting on the carriage, as long as there was no wind, he would not feel cold.
However, the Assassin’s clothes don’t look very warm.
About a mile out of the city, Luo Shuyu suddenly asked him, “Princess Jiayang, are you cold?”
The masked assassin was stunned, his voice almost changed, and he asked Luo Shuyu, “Who is Princess Jiayang?”
Luo Shuyu chuckled: “Stop pretending, I know it’s you, I compared your height on the ice rink that day, you are half a head taller than me, I don’t think any princess would go into the wrong place when someone else went to the room. Son.”
The assassin chuckled and no longer concealed: “You are really unusual, it’s a pity that you married the third prince, not the crown prince, otherwise you can help him to ascend to the throne.”
Luo Shuyu sighed: “It’s just fate.”
Princess Jiayang tore off the black face towel in her hand: “I didn’t expect you to guess it was me.”
Luo Shuyu: “Actually, I don’t dare to guess it’s you. If it was an ordinary assassin, I might not be able to guess who it was. Just after getting on the carriage, I found that you smelled like jasmine flowers. I guess it should be you, then. You have the same smell on the ice rink today.”
Princess Jiayang said: “The details of observation are in place. If you are in our country, you will definitely have a good future. In our Zhou country, your son can also become an official in the court.”
Luo Shuyu: “Then are you a son or a man?”
Princess Jiayang said, “You can guess again.”
Luo Shuyu: “According to your respect for your country’s son as an official, I guess, you should be a son. Even if you pretend to be a woman, you will not be suspected. Men have Adam’s apple, but the son does not.”
Princess Jiayang: “Smart.”
In the end, Luo Shuyu still wanted to figure out who was the Prince of Zhou that Shen Mingyun hooked up with in his previous life.
Luo Shuyu asked him, “I want to ask you a question.”
Princess Jiayang quite liked Luo Shuyu’s wit: “You ask.”
Luo Shuyu: “Where do you rank in your royal family?”
Princess Jiayang: “Fourth.”
Luo Shuyu remembered that the prince who hooked up with Shen Mingyun in the book ranked second in the Zhou royal family. Since Princess Jiayang is a prince and not a man, it means that the second prince of Zhou has not yet begun to show his face.
Luo Shuyu said: “Your second emperor brother also came to Daxia, or the plan to assassinate the prince this time is not your idea, but your second emperor brother’s idea?”
Luo Shuyu thought of the sudden miscarriage of the crown prince. Presumably, the prince of Zhou Kingdom has been hiding behind his back, the purpose is to provoke the Daxia royal family, then assassinate the prince, and then put the blame on the eldest prince, causing only the internal struggle of Daxia Kingdom.
Now that it can be confirmed that Princess Jiayang is not the prince, then it can be speculated that the second prince of Zhou Kingdom is still hiding in the capital, and he continues to strategize.
Princess Jiayang said: “The third prince, I want to break the agreement with the third prince. You are too smart, I can’t just let you go back.”
Luo Shuyu added: “It is also possible that I guessed wrong. You and your second emperor are not the same, otherwise you would not have been exposed so quickly.”
There is a battle for the throne in Daxia, and the Zhou Kingdom also has it, and the competition in the Zhou Kingdom is even fiercer. Their sons can not only become officials in the court, but also emperors, otherwise Jiayang will not pretend to be a woman and sneak into Daxia. I want to disturb the muddy water in Daxia.
Princess Jiayang smiled: “No matter how much you guess, it’s useless, I won’t tell you.”
Luo Shuyu: “It doesn’t matter, I don’t know martial arts, and I don’t investigate cases when I’m an official. I’m just a boring speculation about princess rights.”
Princess Jiayang: “You are indeed very interesting. If you were born in our Zhou Kingdom, we should be able to become very good friends.”
Luo Shuyu: “I think so too.”
Princess Jiayang: “I’m almost at Wangyou Pavilion, please stop your man from following me.”
Luo Shuyu smiled: “Princess don’t have to worry, His Highness said that he will definitely do it.” But it should be limited to the fact that he is still in Princess Jiayang’s hands.
When they arrived at the pavilion, Princess Jiayang got on her horse neatly and ran away with her two horses, leaving Luo Shuyu where she was.
Only the driver and Luo Shuyu were left.
Luo Shuyu asked the driver, “An Jiu, bring him back to me.”
An Jiu: “But His Highness hasn’t come yet.”
An Jiu was quite surprised that the third imperial concubine was held by someone with a knife and was so calm, and she just ordered him to chase someone, which is also very courageous.
Luo Shuyu: “Okay.”
He jumped out of the carriage, stretched his arms, and hadn’t been out of the city very much.
The suburbs in winter have a different view.
After a while, Li Mingjin arrived with the team, the people behind chased them, and Li Mingjin rushed in front of Luo Shuyu.
I was so worried in my heart: “Yu’er, are you injured?”
Luo Shuyu shook his head: “I’m fine, I’m fine, don’t worry.”
Li Mingjin hugged him in his arms: “It scared me to death.”
Luo Shuyu: “I’m fine.” He hurriedly diverted Li Mingjin’s attention, “I haven’t been here before, Your Highness, let’s sit at the pavilion for a while.”
Seeing that he didn’t look frightened, Li Mingjin nodded his forehead: “Heartless.”
Luo Shuyu smiled and walked towards the pavilion holding his hand. An Jiu and the guards were very winking to help them clear the snow from the pavilion, and put two mats on top.
Luo Shuyu didn’t give a **** and said, “I know the identity of that assassin.”
Li Mingjin was a little surprised: “Who? How do you know his identity?”
“We’ve all seen it before.” Luo Shuyu patted a dead leaf that fell on his shoulder, “The person we discussed when we played Cuju on the ice rink.”
Li Mingjin immediately thought: “Princess Jiayang?”
Luo Shuyu: “Well, I just confirmed his identity. He is a son, not a man.”
Li Mingjin: “How could it be him?”
Luo Shuyu: “Their son of the State of Zhou has the same status as a man, so it’s not surprising that he is.”
Li Mingjin: “I know this, but I didn’t expect them to be so bold and go directly to assassinate the prince.”
Luo Shuyu: “But I think Princess Jiayang may have just been a target. The real thing to guard against is their second prince.”
Li Mingjin: “How do you say it?”
Luo Shuyu: “The miscarriage of the Crown Princess is definitely not an accident, and it is not the result of the eldest prince’s faction. I guess there are people from Zhou who are trying to fish in the water.”
Li Mingjin: “The second prince of the Zhou Kingdom has never shown up.”
Luo Shuyu: “So we have to find him. Originally, no one found out that Zhou Guo did it, but now it has suddenly come in. Perhaps the second prince of Zhou Guo’s faction and Jiayang Gongfang have never reached a consensus.”
Li Mingjin understood Luo Shuyu’s meaning: “It seems that the royal family in the Zhou Kingdom is also quite chaotic. There are far more people who are holding back than those who can work. They all want to take credit, but some people want to take all the credit.”
Luo Shuyu praised him at the right time: “Your Highness is wise.”
Therefore, Princess Jiayang in the previous life was lost by the second prince of Zhou in the infighting of Zhou, and she did not appear in the tribute group.
After smoothing out the relationship here, it is clear why there was no such person as Princess Jiayang in the previous life. There is also the fact that Shen Mingyun saved the second prince of Zhou State in his last life, and the second prince of Zhou State did not know where he was. When he was injured, he appeared in the village that Shen Mingyun bought privately. Now Shen Mingyun has entered the fourth prince’s mansion, and he has too little time to go out. It is impossible to go to Zhuangzi to live again, and it is impossible to meet him.
Therefore, the whereabouts of the second prince of the Zhou Kingdom is unknown, and Princess Jiayang has made up her own mind?
There is too little information, so Luo Shuyu can only rely on guesswork, but it is a good thing that Zhou Guoren has placed spies in Daxia now that it has surfaced.
Emperor Tiansheng has been investigated, and things will become clearer and clearer. Sooner or later, the second prince of the Zhou Kingdom will show his face. Maybe he will meet Shen Mingyun again, it is not necessarily, it is just a matter of time.
Li Mingjin clenched Luo Shuyu’s hand: “Yu’er is still smart and helped me solve a big problem. That Princess Jiayang, I must capture him alive.”
Luo Shuyu asked him, “It’s freezing cold, where does Your Highness think Princess Jiayang will stay?”
Li Mingjin took out a knife with a sharp edge from his ankle, and lightly made a few marks on the table: “There is a small town in the east three miles, if you don’t rest and keep going, it will take half a day to ride a fast horse. to the next place to stay.”
“Is there another path?” Luo Shuyu asked him, “Jiayang is being hunted down, will he blatantly take the official road?”
Li Mingjin: “There are also trails, but on a snowy day, unless you are used to hunting hunters running in the mountains, no one can directly climb the mountain.”
Luo Shuyu held her chin and asked him, “Then how can he avoid the pursuers and be guaranteed to survive, and she has no thick clothes and limited food.”
Li Mingjin flashed: “It is very likely that he will return to the city within two days.”
Luo Shuyu: “His Royal Highness is right, as long as he is found, they will be able to catch all their spies in one go.”
In fact, rather than clearing up the Zhou State spies, it is better to say that they are paving the way for Li Mingjin from now on.
Nothing is more real than having real power, the only way to keep them alive.
Li Mingjin nodded. He didn’t want Luo Shuyu to spend too much time. After watching the snow scene with Luo Shuyu for a while, he returned to the city in a carriage.
The prince was stabbed and the third prince concubine was kidnapped by assassins in the street.
Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin went directly back to the house. It was freezing cold. After Luo Shuyu took a comfortable bath, Li Mingjin asked him to stay in the house to keep warm and was not allowed to go anywhere.
That night, Li Mingjin hugged Luo Shuyu tightly in fear.
In his dream, he dreamed of a carriage full of arrows. In the dream, Luo Shuyu’s face was pale and his eyes were flustered. He was frightened into a cold sweat, and then woke up.
On the second day, the news that Luo Shuyu was being held hostage by the assassin spread like wildfire, and the news of the prince’s assassination was suppressed.
The palace sent people to send a lot of shocking items, and it is self-evident who did this.
Li Mingjin glared fiercely at the gift sent by the queen: “The prime minister is really scheming, actually using Yu’er as a shield!”
Luo Shuyu patted him on the back and gave him a smooth breath: “Your Highness, don’t be angry, many people have seen me being held hostage. They use me, why don’t we create a reputation for ourselves and turn our disadvantages into advantages? How about?”
Li Mingjin: “Does Yu’er have a plan?”
Luo Shuyu: “That may use Mr. Chen. I think he has all the methods, mainly his literary talent is not bad.”
Li Mingjin’s eyes lit up: “Yuer means to create momentum for us?”
Luo Shuyu nodded: “Well, the crown prince was not injured, but I was held hostage outside the city and I was frightened. It is not an exaggeration to take advantage of it.”
Li Mingjin: “Naturally it’s not an exaggeration.”
Chen Rong really lived up to expectations. In less than two days, the whole capital was spreading the story of Luo Shuyu’s heroic fight against assassins!
The storytellers in the teahouse all said this: “These three princes and concubines have the spirit of not giving in to death. At that time, they were fighting with assassins in the snow, struggling to support, and when the sharp knife almost pierced his neck, they finally came. The three princes who fell from the sky! I saw the three princes show their might and fight against the assassins for 300 rounds. The carriage was shaken to pieces, and finally the third princes and concubine were rescued from the assassins! !”
Later, Luo Shuyu asked Chen Rong how it was so exaggerated that the third prince was about to grow three heads and six arms!
Chen Rong said, “This is a script written by His Highness himself, and there are more exaggerated versions, but I strongly rejected it.”
Luo Shuyu: “…then he must be very sorry.”
It’s different from the original idea, but that’s it.
The author has something to say: Third Prince: Daughter-in-law, do you think my paintings look good? Ninety-nine poses! Let’s use the 100th tonight~~
Luo Shuyu: …
