The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits - Chapter 230
Shen Yu was protected in the man’s arms, feeling the man’s monstrous anger.
“This is what you said that the family’s problems have been solved, and no one will attack Ayu?” Shang Junlin’s tone was cold, full of undisguised killing intent.
“It was my negligence,” Ji Wuwang sighed, “I will give you an explanation.”
The movement inside disturbed the outside, and after a while, Ji’s guard rushed in and took over the depressed child who wanted to assassinate the depressed child under Ji Wuliang’s sword.
Only then did Shen Yu realize that the child was holding a sharp dagger in his hand, and the dagger glowed a faint blue light under the refraction of the sun, presumably it was coated with poison.
Shang Junlin also noticed this, and his voice became colder: “You should give us an explanation.”
Why was assassinated in what is said to be the safest holy place? Who is behind this arrangement? How did the teenage boy escape the guards and hide in the Holy Land? What is his identity…
Countless questions are lingering in my mind, the most important thing is that apart from this child, is there anyone else who wants to attack Shen Yu?
“There can be no mistakes in the process of removing the ‘Jie Yin’. During this time, I will carefully check the situation in the clan again.” Ji Wuwang’s face was also ugly. After “cleaning” up and down the ground, I did not expect that there were still fish that slipped through the net.
Shen Yu looked at the child restrained by the guards. He was very sure that after he came to the Ji clan, he had never had a grudge against anyone, so this hatred was likely to be carried over from his mother’s generation.
“Why did you kill me?” Shen Yu asked the child’s gaze.
“…”
The child said something in a low voice, but Shen Yu couldn’t hear it clearly, and then he pursed his lips tightly and didn’t ask anything again.
Shen Yu believed that Ji Wuwang would give him a satisfactory explanation and stop wasting time on this child.
Shang Junlin was firmly in Shen Yu’s arms, his body was tense, in a highly defensive posture, and the hidden dragon guarded around the two.
“I want to participate in the whole process.” When Shang Junlin spoke, his cold eyes fell on the child, and the meaning was self-evident.
An elder next to Ji Wuhuang who heard the news subconsciously refused: “This is the Ji family’s business, you…”
“Okay.” Before he could finish, Ji Wuwang agreed. This matter involved depression, which was equivalent to touching Shang Junlin’s inverse scale. Ji Wuwang knew that it was unrealistic not to let Shang Junlin participate.
The elder still wanted to say something. Seeing Ji Wuwang’s stern expression, he silently swallowed the unspoken words. When the head of their family encounters something about his younger brother, it is easy to ignore the advice of others.
Besides, this time, they really didn’t take care of it.
The trip was interrupted, Shang Junlin took Shen Yu back first, and Ji Wuwang led someone to **** the child down. Along the way, Shang Junlin didn’t speak.
Shen Yu hooked Shang Junlin’s hand and scratched in his palm: “Your Majesty is still angry?”
Shang Junlin clenched his chaotic hand: “I’m angry that I didn’t detect the danger in advance.”
“How can I predict this kind of thing in advance? I’m fine, don’t think about it, Your Majesty, with His Majesty there, no one will hurt me, right?”
“Yes, as long as I am here, I will never allow anyone to hurt Ayu in any form.”
After returning to the yard where he lived temporarily, Shang Junlin went to Ji Wuwang’s side to deal with the assassination. He would never let Shen Yu go easily.
The people under Ji Wuwang went to investigate immediately. There were not many people who could approach the Holy Land, and the scope to be investigated was directly narrowed. Moreover, Ji Wuwang didn’t have any clues in his heart.
Shen Yu didn’t go, he stayed in the house to recharge, and guarded Shang Junlin and Ji Wuwang outside the house, and the level of danger was minimized.
But it’s not entirely without danger.
A maid approached with a snack, Shen Yu glanced at her face, a face she had never seen before.
Shen Yu likes all kinds of desserts, of course Ji Wuwang will not treat him badly when he brings people back. All kinds of desserts are made in turn every day, and then delivered by a fixed maid. Shen Yu remembers the appearance of the maid, and it is not the same person who appeared today.
He calmly retracted his gaze. The fact that the maid was close to him meant that Yin Longwei and Ji Wuhuang did not find anything wrong with her. This did not mean that the maid had no problems at all. It was always right to be careful.
“You don’t have to bring it here, just put it there.” Shen Yu pointed to the table on the other side.
“Yes.” The maid took a step and turned around.
It was too late and then too fast, the maid’s body twisted strangely and rushed straight towards Shen Yu.
Shen Yu dodged sideways, reached out and grabbed the maid’s arm, a silver light flashed between the maid’s fingers, Shen Yu narrowed her eyes, and saw that it was a long needle, which was brought in by the maid hiding somewhere.
“boom–“
Hearing the movement, Yinlongwei broke through the window and quickly stopped the maid, separating depression from danger.
“It’s late, Your Majesty forgives your sins.” Yin Longwei, headed by him, knelt on the ground.
Shen Yu nodded: “Ask her, who sent it, if there are accomplices.”
He suffered two assassinations in the face of himself in one day, and his gloomy expression did not change. Yin Longwei sighed in his heart, as expected of the person who can win His Majesty’s heart, but how many people can do it in the face of danger?
Yin Longwei led the maid out.
“You don’t have to take it away, just ask here. I also really want to know who it is that wants my life one after another.”
Shen Yu stopped Yin Longwei’s footsteps from leaving. His voice was not loud, but he carried a strong pressure. For a while, Yin Longwei suddenly felt that standing in front of them was not the noble who usually does not show the mountains and waters. Your Majesty, it is Your Majesty who speaks a thousand words.
Yin Longwei escorted the maid to kneel in front of Shen Yu, and Shen Yu looked down at her: “Today, I also suffered an assassination in your holy place, and the assassin was a teenage child, what is the relationship between you and him? ?”
The maid lowered her head and said nothing.
“It’s okay if you don’t say it. Actually, I’m very curious about the effect of this needle. You said, how about I try this on that child?”
“No!” The maid suddenly raised her head, “This matter has nothing to do with him.”
“But it’s a fact that he was hiding in the Holy Land and attacked me. Now that the man has been taken away by your patriarch, if you explained it earlier, you might have saved his life.”
“What?” The maid looked panicked, “What did you do to him?”
At this moment, Shang Junlin and Ji Wuwang brought people in. They rushed in after hearing the report, and they were relieved to see Shen Yu standing in the room intact.
Shang Junlin strode towards Shen Yu, without saying a word, he directly took the person into his arms, and was terrified: “I shouldn’t have left you alone.”
How long has he been gone? Something happened again.
“I’m fine.” Feeling the slight trembling around him, he patted the man on the back soothingly, “It’s really fine, don’t worry.”
On the way here, Shang Junlin and Ji Wuwang had already figured it out, and they looked at the maid very badly. The person in charge of arranging the maid was called and asked what was going on.
The person in charge told the origin of the maid under pressure. The identity of the maid is indeed fine, but the maid who was in charge of delivering snacks to Shen Yu had a temporary accident today, and this matter was handed over to the maid. What happened to the person in charge? I would never have thought that the temporary accident was man-made, and the maid took over this errand with a purpose from the very beginning.
Ji Wuwang’s actions were very fast, and it didn’t take long for him to find out the cause and effect of the incident. The Ji family has undergone several major purges under his power, and it has become his only word. It is easy to investigate some things. .
“In other words, this time is still due to historical issues?” In the courtyard, Shen Yu, Shang Junlin, and Ji Wuwang sat at the stone table, and said Shen Yu.
“Yes, the patriarch who was stopped by your mother is very powerful in the clan. Except for the one who left with him, it took me many years to remove the remaining forces one by one, but I didn’t expect that even so, some people secretly thought Avenge him.” Ji Wuxiang said.
“This is normal. He has been operating in Ji’s house for so many years. Some people are dissatisfied with his actions, and some people support his behavior.” Shang Jun said coldly.
“What about the identity of that child, has it been found out?” Shen Yu asked.
“I found out that his mother was a maid who served by the patriarch’s side. It was more useful. When the man left, he promised the maid that he would marry her when he came back. The news of her death, coupled with the large-scale purge of the clan’s forces in the past, she committed herself to a wealthy businessman, and after giving birth to her child, she has always instilled in her child the idea of revenge for that person.” Ji Wuwang replied.
“Using her own child as a tool for revenge…” Shen Yu did not comment on this approach, “She never thought about it, was she cheated?”
“That person left a small number of people for her. Because of this, she believes that she is not abandoned. This time, it can help me clean up the forces left by the last group of people in the clan.”
For a child, if he wants to enter the heavily guarded Holy Land, it is impossible for him to do so without anyone helping him. Taking this opportunity, Ji Wuwang can wipe out all the forces that are lurking in the dark.
“What about the maid who came to assassinate me alone? She seems to attach great importance to that child?” Shen Yu took Shang Junlin’s hand in his hand and squeezed it from time to time.
The man indulged his actions, and the look of doting on his face turned cold when he heard that he almost hurt the gloomy maid: “Before she came on duty, she was in charge of taking care of the child, and they seemed to think that the child was theirs. Patriarch’s species.”
“Whether this matter is really not important anymore.” Ji Wuwang has been dealing with these people for a long time, knowing that it is difficult to change their minds, he has no plans to change them, just grab them out and deal with them, why bother?
“In the next few days, there may be some turmoil in the clan, and I will arrange for people to guard here and not disturb them.”
Shang Junlin won’t take care of the internal affairs of the Ji family, but when it comes to depression, Shang Junlin will definitely take care of it. He reminded Ji Wuxiang: “Don’t forget what you promised me.”
“People will keep it for you, what you do with it is up to you.” Ji Wuwang nodded, what he said was an attempt to assassinate Shen Yu.
As time passed, Shen Yu didn’t feel anything yet, but he clearly felt that Shang Junlin became more and more uneasy.
He didn’t know what the man was upset about, and when he asked it during the day, he would be diverted by Shang Junlin.
Once again, I felt the gaze falling on my face in the misty night, and Shen Yu opened his eyes with sleepiness.
Unexpectedly, he would wake up suddenly, and Shang Junlin was obviously startled.
Shen Yu raised his hand and touched Shang Junlin’s face: “Your Majesty, what are you afraid of?”
