royal husband

After tidying up the monster Chen Manzhou, Li Jin and Ying Yuan came to the road that must be passed to enter Zhuzhou City, waiting for the team to deliver disaster relief food.

They came here to wait because they received a letter from the people Gu Rushuang arranged for the disaster relief team, knowing that they would arrive in Zhuzhou City today.

"Ajin, they are here."

Ying Yuan, who was hiding in the tree, immediately noticed the food delivery team.

"Let's take a look first." Li Jin also saw the team delivering relief food, but their expressions seemed to be very strange, and most of them were full of panic.

"Hey...there is Zhuzhou ahead, stop and rest for a while, before entering the city."

When the leading military officer gave an order, the soldiers did not dare to disobey, and immediately stopped to make repairs.

But their complexions are already very bad.

"Li Shizi and the Seventh Prince are both dead, I think, after we return to Beijing, we must be buried with them."

"Well, it's because we are not good at doing things."

"My wife was pregnant with a child before I left Beijing. If I die..."

"That's enough, shut up." The leading military officer interrupted, "Didn't I tell you that you will be fine? Hurry up and tidy up yourselves, so as not to embarrass the court."

A soldier couldn't bear it anymore, and said in a desperate tone, "My lord, Li Shizi and the others are dying right in front of us, how can we be at ease?"

If one soldier asked such a sensitive question, the rest of the soldiers raised their anxiety already.

No wonder the soldiers are like this.

After all, anyone who saw the person they needed to protect was killed by an assassin on the carriage would be the same as them.What's more frightening is that the status of the two dead is not low, one is the son of Dingbei Prince, the other is the prince, even if they have a hundred heads, they are not enough to chop off.

Ying Yuan said solemnly, "A Jin, the person Shen Chaoyan arranged for died."

"Well, I guess someone couldn't help but want to attack us." Li Jin nodded thoughtfully, "A Yuan, you wait here, I'll go down and have a look."

Ying Yuan looked at Li Jin and said solemnly, "Be careful."

"Will do."

Seeing the unconcealable worry in Ying Yuan's eyes, Li Jin couldn't help but gently stroked Ying Yuan's hair before jumping off.

"Who?" The leading military officer's hearing is very sensitive, Li Jin heard the sound as soon as he landed, and immediately shouted vigilantly, signaling the soldiers to pay attention to the changes around them.

After hearing this, the terrified soldiers quickly took up their weapons to guard.

"Lord Tao, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?" Li Jin once met Tao Yichu in Gu Rushuang's palace, so he greeted Tao Yichu, the leading military officer who delivered the relief food as soon as he came up.

After hearing this, Tao Yichu quickly bowed to Li Jin, "I will see Prince Li at the end."

Marching/military until now, the heart that has been raised has also been put down.

Tao Yichu is young after all, even though he knew that Li Jin and the others would leave his team separately, and even arranged for a double to stand on top of him, and they exchanged letters regularly, Tao Yichu was still afraid that something might happen.

Prince Li?

When the soldiers around heard the words, they /showed/wrong expressions, and the three words 'Li Shizi' kept appearing in their minds.

Wasn't Li Shizi killed by an assassin on the way they came to Zhuzhou?How can it still appear here?And... is this person really Shizi Li?

For fear that the double would be exposed, the people who replaced Li Jin and Ying Yuan all wore veils, so except for Tao Yichu, the other soldiers had never seen Li Jin's true face before this.

A soldier couldn't help asking, "Master Tao, is he really Prince Li?"

"Yes."

Tao Yichu didn't hide any more, and simply told the soldiers about Shen Chaoyan's plan directly, which made many fearful soldiers relieved instantly.

However, among these soldiers, there was something wrong with the eyes of one soldier.

Li Jin looked around at the soldiers, cupped his hands and said, "Master Tao, can you take a moment to speak? I want to know if you encountered anything along the way? And why did the person arranged by Master Shen to replace me and the Seventh Prince die? .”

"Li Shizi, let's go over there and talk."

Tao Yichu nodded, and invited Li Jin to a place some distance away from the soldiers, and began to talk about his experience before coming to Zhuzhou.

"I'll go to make it easier." The soldier with a strange look saw that Li Jin and Tao Yichu were going to the other side to talk, and immediately followed Li Jin and the others secretly under the guise of going to the toilet.

at the same time.

All this fell into the eyes of Ying Yuan, Ying Yuan did not expose him immediately, but followed the soldier.

Tao Yichu saw that he and Li Jin were the only ones here, and immediately said, "Li Shizi, those assassins are dead men, and most of them committed suicide when they were caught again. One was caught alive, but no matter how hard I pressed him, he would Refusing to say who ordered them."

The dead soldiers are all specially trained people, no matter how much pain they suffer, they will never reveal any news about their masters.

"Is he still alive?"

"already dead."

"died?"

"It was killed by a soldier by mistake, and the soldier committed suicide later."

Talking about this matter, Tao Yichu was very annoyed.

As a well-trained soldier who is also an old man beside Tao Yichu, it is impossible for such a low-level mistake to occur.Therefore, Tao Yichu quickly guessed that the soldier had switched to someone else.

However, Tao Yichu was a step too late, as soon as he reached the place where the soldiers were being held, the soldiers had committed suicide.

"A dead man?" Li Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a half-smile, "I think those people have something to do with the fifth prince, or... maybe it's the handwriting of 'other princes'."

Tao Yichu had heard that the fifth prince, Ying Zijun, was at odds with Li Jin and the others, so he was not surprised to hear Li Jin mention him, but what really shocked Tao Yichu was the "other princes" in Li Jin's words, so he gasped and said , "What does Li Shizi mean... other princes also participated?"

Li Jin nodded and said, "You forgot, the Seventh Prince is the adopted son of His Royal Highness, how could they not be on guard?" Especially Ying Ziqi.

Although Ying Ziqi has disguised very well these years.

However, Yingzi prayed to resent Yingyuan's desire to take away the position of adopted son that should belong to him, but Li Jin knew about it long ago.Therefore, if there is such a good opportunity to deal with Ying Yuan, Ying Ziqi will not let it go.

"..."

Tao Yichu was silent.

Because he also agreed with what Li Jin said, but Tao Yichu did not dare to speak nonsense when the matter involved the prince.

Too bad, if this goes on, it's hard to guarantee that he won't guess the master.

The soldier who learned of Li Jin's conversation from a distance, his pupils shrank suddenly, and decided to retreat temporarily, and then look for an opportunity to tell his master what he heard today/day/.

"Where do you want to go?"

It's too late, it's too soon.

The moment the soldier wanted to retreat, Ying Yuan jumped down from the tree and grabbed the soldier's shoulder, immobilizing him for an instant.

The soldier's back stiffened for a moment, "Who are you?"

"I should be the one to ask you this sentence." Ying Yuan's hand strength gradually increased, "Say, which prince sent you as a spy? Who else sneaked in with you?"

……

"Li Shizi, be careful, there are people on the left."

When Ying Yuan jumped down from the tree, he didn't deliberately reduce the force, so Tao Yichu immediately heard a sound from the left.

"It's okay, it's our own." After Li Jin said that, he walked over calmly.

Seeing this, Tao Yichu had no choice but to follow.

Seven princes...

Tao Yichu didn't expect that the person coming would be the Seventh Prince, so he was stunned on the spot, not knowing what to say for a while.

Li Jin was the first to ask, "Seventh Prince, who is this person?"

When Ying Yuan first heard Li Jin calling back the Seventh Prince, he felt depressed, but Ying Yuan's self-control was very strong, the change in expression was only fleeting, and he quickly returned to normal, "Spies, but he still refuses to say Find out who let him sneak in. Therefore, to prevent him from committing suicide, I temporarily removed his jaw."

Li Jin suggested, "Seventh Prince, since he still refuses to say anything, why don't we tie him up first, and make a decision after entering the city."

"it is good."

Ying Yuan had no objection to Li Jin's proposal, and soon escorted the spy back to the team, ready to leave.

Ying Yuan's sudden arrival, just like Li Jin just now, caused the soldiers to exclaim in surprise, and they almost rushed over to confirm it at a close distance.

Li Jin's carriage was very close to Tao Yichu's food relief team, so before going to Zhuzhou City, Li Jin asked Zhou Yunting and the others to bring the so-called "wicked people" who were captured from Liujia Village into Zhuzhou City.

on the carriage.

Because there were more Tao Yichu and other soldiers, only he and Ying Yuan were in the carriage that Li Jin and the others were riding in, and Zhou Yunting was in charge of driving.

Li Jin looked at Ying Yuan, and said unhurriedly, "Just now I deliberately let someone escort Jiang You past him, but he didn't respond at all, so he probably isn't the third prince."

Ying Yuan met Li Jin's gaze, "Then A Jin has doubts in his heart?"

"Not yet." Li Jin shook his head, "But in this case, we have to be careful, the person who won Ziqi may still be hiding in the dark."

"Didn't we catch that 'Jiang You'?"

A trace of puzzlement flashed in Yingyuan's eyes.

"That's just one of them." Li Jin lifted a corner of the veil and said meaningfully, "As far as Ying Ziqi's temperament is concerned, he will definitely make two preparations. Perhaps the news of our rendezvous with Tao Yichu has already spread."

"Then should we strengthen our defenses?"

"No, just maintain the status quo. If he knows that we have come back, he will definitely take the next step."

"Ah."

Li Jin sensed that something was wrong with Ying Yuan's mood, "Seventh Prince?"

Hearing Li Jin ask this, Ying Yuan immediately took it seriously, "There are only two of us here, can't you call me A Yuan like before?"

"..."

"Ajin..."

Seeing that Li Jin didn't answer, Ying Yuan lowered his head in frustration.

"A Yuan." Li Jin violently rubbed Ying Yuan's hair, and said with a smile, "It was my fault, I forgot the promise in a hurry, I promise I will remember it in the future."

"I don't blame you." Ying Yuan quickly replied, "You can just get used to it in the future, don't worry, I... I just... just like to hear you call me Ayuan."

"it is good."

Seeing Ying Yuan say such straightforward words, while Li Jin responded, there was a strange feeling in his heart.
