The assassin who appeared in front of him did not move Shi Yan's face, his eyes were still on Lou Yu's body. "Yingyiyinger protect the regent." Yingyiyinger said "Yes" in unison, and rushed towards the assassin.

Shi Yan was guarded by the guards, he tried hard to move towards Lou Yu's direction, but was blocked by waves of assassins again.

Seeing the increasing number of assassins, Xiao Quanzi anxiously dragged Shi Yan back. "His Royal Highness, let's go."

"No, the regent is still there, so I can't leave alone." Shi Yan tried to push aside the guards blocking him, and walked towards Lou Yu.

However, before he took two steps, he was dragged back by Xiao Quanzi again. "The regent is dead, you still need to take care of yourself."

Shi Yan frowned, he was about to wave off Xiao Quanzi's hand, but at this moment, Ying Yi shouted: "You bold assassins, don't even think about hurting the prince."

While speaking, he raised his hand and threw the torch in his hand.

The torch was tumbling in the air, and finally landed firmly on the elevated firewood pile.

The firewood was very dry, and as soon as the torch fell on it, it ignited with a bang.

Seeing that the firewood pile was burning, the assassins didn't dare to stay on it, and retreated in a hurry.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, but within a short time, it enveloped Lou Yu's whole body.

When Xiao Quanzi saw this, he continued to persuade him: "His Royal Highness, now you don't have to worry about the regent being snatched away."

As he said that, he continued to pull Shi Yan and moved quickly towards the carriage.

This time, Shi Yan didn't struggle any more, he let Xiao Quanzi drag him away, but his eyes were always fixed on Lou Yu who had been engulfed by the flames.

Finally, he was dragged into the carriage, and then the carriage drove away under the guidance of the guards.

Strangely, as soon as Shi Yan left, the previous assassins receded like a tide.

But after a while, only Ying Yi Ying Er and a few guards from the Regent's Palace were left on the scene.

Everyone's attention was focused on the flames that filled the sky, until the firewood was burned out, the flames dissipated, and only a piece of white ashes remained on the ground.

Ying Yi said to the guard behind him: "Put away the ashes of the prince."

The guard cupped his hands and replied: "Yes."

After ordering the guards, Ying [-] and Ying [-] looked at each other, and each breathed a long sigh of relief.

night.

At the beginning of the moonlight, there were still lights in a small but exquisite courtyard in the west of the city.

There was a person lying on the couch near the window.This person was none other than Lou Yu who was supposed to be dead.In front of Lou Yu were Ying [-] and Ying [-], they stood aside respectfully, neither of them spoke.

Until Lou Yu suddenly opened his eyes, which were still closed, and those pupils were pitch black and as deep as ever.

"When you handed over the ashes to the prince, did he have any doubts?" During the few days after taking the feigned death medicine, Lou Yu had no consciousness at all. To him, it was as if he had fallen asleep. He felt that he slept for a long time, until now, he felt that his body was very stiff.

"His Royal Highness, he has no doubts." Ying Yi replied in a reluctant voice.

He also remembered the sadness on his face when he brought the box of fake ashes to Shi Yan, and he still couldn't forget it until now.

"Is he very happy after this king's death?" Lou Yu asked self-deprecatingly.

After all, the reason why he used the fake death medicine in advance was all thanks to that little wolf cub.

"His Royal Highness is heartbroken, and he doesn't look happy at all." This time, even the quiet Ying Er couldn't help but defend Shi Yan.

Ever since his prince's death was faked, he did not see the joy of finally getting rid of his confidant's serious trouble from Shi Yan.Instead, it was like losing an extremely important person.

"Really?" Lou Yu said doubtfully.

Ying Er nodded repeatedly and replied: "My lord, this time the Imperial Forest Army surrounded the Prince Regent's Palace, it was not an order from His Highness the Crown Prince, but Mu Yunqing acted on his own initiative. After you faked your death, My lord, he was locked up by His Highness the Crown Prince."

Hearing that Shi Yan was not the one who wanted to put her to death, Lou Yu felt somewhat relieved.

However, these are in the past.Now that he has been reborn, he doesn't intend to have anything to do with Shi Yan anymore.

"It doesn't matter anymore. Anyway, I will no longer be the regent of Beiyue from now on, but just an ordinary person." Lou Yu has already made up his mind. Regardless of the disputes in the court, as for how the banquet will be, it has nothing to do with him.

That's right, Lou Yu thought so.

"My lord, there are some things I don't know if I should talk about it or not." Ying Yi hesitated for a while before saying to Lou Yu.

Lou Yu looked at Ying Yi with raised eyebrows, and said with a smile, it's not like you to be so hesitant. "

Yingyi knew that what Lou Yu meant was to let him speak out.So he stopped hesitating and reported to Lou Yu: "Previously the prince asked his subordinates to investigate Mu Yunqing's life experience, and now the subordinates have already found out."

"Now this king is no longer interested in Mu Yunqing's life experience." Lou Yu shook his head, as if he didn't want to listen any more.

"But..." Ying Yi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mu Yunqing's background is related to you, my lord."

"Is it related to this king?" At this moment, even Lou Yu was a little surprised. "This king doesn't remember having such a big son."

Knowing that Lou Yu's thinking was wrong, Ying Yi explained: "My lord still remembers the Yue Kingdom that you pacified many years ago."

After Yingyi mentioned this, Lou Yu's memory began to recover.Before he came here, the original owner had destroyed such a small country.

But, what does this small country have to do with Mu Yunqing?

Suddenly, a thought popped into Lou Yu's mind, and he asked Ying: "You mean, Mu Yunqing is the remnant of the Yue Kingdom."

"Back then when Yue Kingdom was destroyed and the crown prince of Yue Kingdom disappeared, no one knew his whereabouts. If the investigation by my subordinates is correct, it was the family that adopted him who rescued him in the first place." Ying Yi continued.

Lou Yu pondered for a while, but did not speak.

If it is true what Yingyi said, Mu Yunqing is a remnant of Yue Guo's legacy, then he is now hiding his name by Shi Yan's side, maybe it's not just a simple desire to take revenge on himself.

Is his ultimate goal to restore the country?

Lou Yu remembered very clearly that there was not much description of Mu Yunqing's life experience in the original.Therefore, he never thought that Mu Yunqing was actually a remnant of the previous dynasty.

However, if his real purpose is to restore the country, then after getting rid of himself, his next step is to overthrow the Beiyue Kingdom.Seeing that Lou Yu was still in deep thought, Ying Yi Ying Er did not disturb him.

Anyway, for them, no matter what decision Lou Yu makes, they will always follow him.

"You guys go down first, let this king think about it." After a long time, Lou Yu waved to Ying Ying and Ying Er.

Ying, Ying and Ying each bowed to Lou Yu before retreating.

The door of the room was closed by Ying Yi Ying Er, leaving Lou Yu alone in the room.

However, his heart did not calm down because of this.He had to say that the news that Yingyi found disrupted some things he had originally decided.

I don't know if it was because I slept for a long time, or because I had something on my mind, Lou Yu hardly slept that night.

Early the next morning, when the cock crowed, Lou Yu's room door was opened by him from the inside.

He walked out of the house, squinting at the rising sun in the east, his eyes gradually became firm.

After a simple breakfast, Lou Yu took out a letter from his bosom and told Ying Yi: "Ying Yi, you send this letter to Qian Yao." The letter in front of him nodded and took it over.Then, he turned and left.

After Ying Yi left, Lou Yu said to Ying Er again: "Go and invite Master Qin to me immediately."

The miracle doctor Qin that Lou Yu was talking about was the one who made the fake death medicine for him.Only because he was kind to him many years ago, so he will be used by him.

Ying Er said yes, and left quickly.

A few days later, in an inn in the imperial city, there were faint voices of discussion, and one of the men lowered his voice and said: "Have you heard, it is said that the Prince Regent was assassinated and killed by an assassin, and now the entire Palace of the Prince Regent has been killed?" Without a master."

As soon as that person finished speaking, another person took over and said: "I heard that the regent was not killed by an assassin, but by the current Crown Prince himself."

"How did you know that?" Someone asked again.

I just heard the mysterious person from before say: "It's not like you don't know that Beiyue Kingdom is actually ruled by the Shi family, but in fact its surname is Lou. This prince has long been dissatisfied with the regent and wants to treat him Get rid of it and hurry up. No, as soon as he found an opportunity, he directly ordered the regent's life."

"It's true. During the reign of the regent, he framed Zhongliang and fished the common people. He did all kinds of evil. Now that he is dead, it is definitely a great thing for our people." You said humanely.

What this person said was unanimously agreed by several others.

At this time, at a table not far from them, there were three people sitting.These three people looked ordinary, no different from ordinary people.However, these three people are none other than Lou Yu and Ying Yi Ying Er and San after they changed their appearance.

Lou Yu silently listened to the conversation of the people at the next table without any change in the expression on his face.He knew that the original owner was not a good thing, but now that the people say that, his mood is still a bit inexplicably complicated.

"Master, you have to go down and teach them a lesson." Although Lou Yu didn't respond.But Ying Yi couldn't bear it any longer, he just wanted to teach these common people a severe lesson, to see if they still dare to talk behind their backs.

Lou Yu shook his head, looking very calm.He even took a sip of his teacup and said that we still have important things to do, and we must not make extra troubles. "
