Chapter 60: The Battle of Jade Pendants


The commander of the imperial army looked at their emperor with confusion.

He didn't know why the emperor came out of the house so unharmed.

What's even more strange is that the emperor didn't let them attack the house.

After all, the emperor had hijacked the emperor.

Prince Dan is right there.

If we go back like this, wouldn't it be a waste of so many imperial guards deployed outside?

"Your Majesty, where is Prince Dan?"

the commander of the Imperial Guard asked hesitantly as he looked at their emperor.

"Didn't you hear what I just said?

We'll discuss this matter tomorrow."

Seeing that their emperor looked extremely ugly, the commander of the imperial army responded quickly: "Yes, I will send the emperor back to the palace right now."

Although he was full of doubts, the commander of the imperial army did not dare to ask any more questions and quickly escorted the emperor of Taifu Kingdom back to the palace.

During this whole process, the emperor of Taifu Kingdom never glanced at Zhai Jinghui.

Zhai Jinghui looked at his father's back in the distance, and his eyes became dim and unclear.

Not only did he fail to get rid of Sikong Zhanbai and Ye Shunan today, but he also made his father wary of him.

Thinking of his father's attitude towards him just now, Zhai Jinghui's heart felt like a big stone was weighing on him.

How could he reverse it?

What about this situation?

After the emperor left, the imperial guards also began to evacuate in an orderly manner.

Zhai Jinghui raised his eyes and looked at the closed door in front, secretly wondering what happened to his father and them inside, and why they were willing to let his father out so easily. , and the father had no intention of punishing them, and there was Zhai Chenli, who openly opposed the father in front of so many people, and the father didn't even say a word just now.

He really couldn't figure out what his father was thinking now.

After pondering all the way back to Prince Qi's Mansion, Zhai Jinghui stood in the courtyard in silence for a moment, looking at the dim candlelight in the mansion, and finally walked to Ge Yunfu's room.

After Ge Yunfu came back from the palace, she felt a little uneasy.

When she heard the maid informed that Zhai Jinghui was back, she quickly sat up.

"What's going on?"

Ge Yunfu asked when she saw Zhai Jinghui's figure.

Zhai Jinghui raised his eyes and looked at Ge Yunfu and said coldly: "Are you asking me or our Nine Emperor Brother?"

Ge Yunfu's eyes suddenly darkened, and her voice became a bit colder, "Your Majesty, there are some things you shouldn't say nonsense."

After saying that, he ordered the maids in his room to leave.

It was dark outside and the atmosphere in the room was solemn.

After the maids left, Zhai Jinghui and Ge Yunfu sat there in silence.

After a moment of relative silence, Ge Yunfu finally spoke first, "Your Majesty, since the day the two of us got married, we have been grasshoppers tied to a rope.

At this time, let's take a look first.

Let go of other things, okay?”

Ge Yunfu's rare soft tone finally made Zhai Jinghui's expression soften, but the worry between his eyebrows did not dissipate at all.

"My father has returned to the palace safely.

He didn't say a word to me."

Zhai Jinghui clenched his fist and smashed it on the mahogany table in front of him.

"If I had known this, I shouldn't have planned this assassination with my mother.

Not only did Sikong Zhan Bai is fine, so is my father."

The matter of getting rid of Sikong Zhanbai and Ye Shunan at the palace banquet was brought up by him to his father, and his father also agreed and left the matter to him.

At first, he didn't have any thoughts about his father, but then he thought that this time was an excellent opportunity for him.

Those dancing girls pretending to be assassins were found by him, and they were also recruited by him.

My mother arranged it later.

If I wanted to do something with it, it would be a piece of cake.

Isn't the purpose of his fight for the throne just for the throne?

If his father unfortunately dies in this assassination arranged by himself, then can't he justifiably ascend to the throne?

After all, he is his father's son.

He is the eldest son, and his father has always valued him over the years.

Even if someone objects, it will not make any big waves.

With such thoughts, he couldn't let go, and finally decided to give it a try and arranged for those assassins to take advantage of the chaos to kill his father.

However, he did not expect that his father failed to kill him, but he was Got into big trouble because of this.

"For now, I can only blame this matter on others."

In any case, on the day he married Zhai Jinghui, his fate was closely linked to Zhai Jinghui's.

If Zhai Jinghui couldn't become Zhai Jinghui in the end, According to the emperor, why did you marry him in the first place if the person you married was Zhai Chenli?

"Father knows very well who to push and how.

I am arranging this matter.

Besides me, who else will attack father?"

Zhai Jinghui frowned and said angrily.

Ge Yunfu looked up at Zhai Jinghui, her voice cold and firm, "Besides you, there is another person who knows the whole story and has the opportunity to take action."

Zhai Jinghui looked at Ge Yunfu in surprise when he heard this.

The person she was talking about was his mother.

"Your Majesty, you don't stick to trivial matters when it comes to big things.

If the Emperor thinks that you want to kill him, then the Prince will never be able to turn around in the future.

Only by shifting the blame on the mother can we save you, the Prince."

Ge Yunfu looked at her.

Zhai Jinghui, who was sitting in front of him, advised in a deep voice.

"But she is my queen mother, how could I put such a big crime on her?"

Zhai Jinghui was confused.

"The Queen Mother only has one son, the Prince, and all she hopes is that the Prince will eventually ascend the throne.

If the Emperor alienates the Prince because of this incident, or even punishes the Prince, then the rest of the Queen Mother's life will be over.

The Queen Mother After all, she is a queen, and she also stays with her father.

After so many years by my side, even if it was really my mother who did this, my father would not do anything to my mother if he takes the overall situation into consideration.

When the time comes, my lord, if you beg for mercy in front of the emperor, the most the emperor will do is a small punishment.

It’s a big deal.

We can’t afford to lose something, Your Majesty.”

Ge Yunfu stared at Zhai Jinghui closely.

This was the only way at the moment.

She couldn't lose her reserve position because of this matter.

She believed that Zhai Jinghui could clearly weigh the importance.

Wasn’t that how I considered marrying him back then?

Seeing that Zhai Jinghui still lowered his head and remained silent, Ge Yunfu lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, it is better for you to weigh this matter yourself.

There is also the matter of King Zhao.

Didn't the Emperor say anything?"

When Zhai Jinghui heard Ge Yunfu mention Zhai Chenli, he recovered his thoughts and looked up at her, "Why are you worried about what your father will do to Zhai Chenli?"

Ge Yunfu frowned slightly when he heard this, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I think I have made it very clear just now.

The two of us are already in the same boat.

If we say that besides the Prince and the Queen, I hope that the most Your Majesty, I should be the one who ascends the throne.

The reason why I asked about Zhai Chenli is because he is the prince who competes most fiercely with you for the throne. " Zhai Jinghui just smiled faintly when he heard this.

He naturally didn't believe Ge Yunfu's words, but as Ge Yunfu just said, since she has married him, she and he are already tied together.

On a ship, if she loses power, her life will not be any easier.

Even if the person she loves in her heart is not herself, she still has to plan for herself.

"After my father came out of the house where they lived, he didn't say anything and asked the commander of the imperial army to escort him back to the palace.

So I think my father must have made some deal with them in that house."

But what Zhai Jinghui couldn't figure out was what kind of deal they had reached that allowed their father to tolerate them.

After all, this was the capital of Taifu Kingdom, and they had blatantly hijacked his father, even if they were killed here.

They, Hao Zeguo, had nothing to say.

Why did the father let go of this opportunity?

Ge Yunfu nodded lightly, "Since the emperor said we will talk tomorrow, let's not make random guesses.

We will probably know what is going on tomorrow."

When Zhai Jinghui heard this, he stood up and said, "I'm going to see An'er.

You can go to sleep first."

Ge Yunfu looked at Zhai Jinghui's leaving figure, and resentment gradually emerged in her eyes.

Her two daughters had never seen him so concerned.

However, Ge Yunfu soon calmed down.

It didn't matter.

If he wanted to get close to his son, he could let him get close to him.

All he had to do was get what he wanted.

This dangerous and eventful night finally passed quietly, and some faint light began to appear in the east.

Zhai Jinghui stayed up all night, and as soon as it started to light up, he put on his court clothes and went to court.

Not long after, Qiyun, Yuwei and Ye Shunan arrived at Prince Qi's Mansion.

And Xiao An'er also got up early in the morning.

He knew that at this time every day, his mother and Sister Shu Nan would come to see him.

I saw little An'er trotting all the way over, followed by a group of maids and nuns.

Qiyun smiled and stepped forward to pick up little An'er and asked softly: "Did An'er miss your mother?"

Xiao An'er nodded heavily, "Well, I've thought about it.

Mom, can you stay a little longer today?"

Qiyun felt a little sour in her heart when she heard this, "Okay, mother will stay with Xiao An'er for a little longer today."

In fact, she had already discussed it with Zhai Jinghui before, and she would come to Prince Qi's Mansion to see Xiao An'er every morning until Zhai Jinghui She will leave when she returns to Prince Qi's Mansion next time.

Zhai Jinghui said that only in this way can he and Xiao An'er have time alone.

At this time, Ge Yunfu, who walked over with gentle steps, also said softly: "I really admire how many of you were able to get up so early after working so late yesterday.

Especially Miss Ye, last night It must be a blockbuster.”

Although she had heard about the music control skills of this Miss Ye before, she was still shocked when she saw it for the first time last night.

This Miss Ye is really something to be reckoned with.

Look at it.

Ye Shunan also smiled slightly, "After what happened in the main hall yesterday, I'm afraid King Qi and Princess Qi didn't sleep all night."

The emperor is not so stupid, he can't see that those assassins want to take the opportunity to kill him, except Besides Zhai Jinghui, who else would do such a thing?

After hearing Ye Shunan's words, Ge Yunfu's face turned a little cold, and her voice was full of coldness, "Miss Ye, you and His Highness the Crown Prince hijacked my father in front of so many people, and now you can still do this."

He talks and laughs happily, which really makes me admire him.”

Ye Shunan smiled and said: "I really don't dare to take the word "admiration" seriously."

I don't know why, every time Ge Yunfu sees Ye Shunan, there will be an inexplicable hostility in her heart.

Maybe it is because she is jealous of Zhai Chenli for protecting her like that.

Ge Yunfu saw the smile on Ye Shunan's face, My heart felt clogged and uncomfortable.

Ge Yunfu wanted to find out some secrets from their mouths, but from the looks of it, she probably couldn't find out anything, so Ge ​​Yunfu didn't bother to accompany them.

After Ge Yunfu left, Qiyun asked Xiao An'er softly: "Did Princess Qi treat you badly?"

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Xiao An'er shook her head when she heard this, but there was hidden loneliness in her eyes.

Qiyun's heart tightened, and then she said: "An'er, don't be afraid, tell your mother, did that woman bully you just now?"

Xiao An'er shook her head again, and then said: "She didn't bully me."

"Then why are you so unhappy?"

Qiyun asked softly, kissing Xiao An'er's forehead.

"I heard them saying behind my back that I was a bastard, an illegitimate child."

In fact, Xiao An'er had heard others say these words before when he was in the capital of Haoze Kingdom, but he just felt very uncomfortable and wronged.

Qiyun's nose felt sore when she heard this, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

She hugged Xiao An'er tightly, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

"Mom, when can we go home?"

He didn't want to stay here.

Although there were many people here to take care of him and he didn't lack anything, he didn't want to stay here at all.

Ye Shunan, who was standing by, also felt uncomfortable.

Adults thought that children didn't understand anything, but in fact, many times, they were very sensitive.

Especially for children like Xiao An'er, who have been very sensible since childhood, they will take everything that others say unintentionally into their hearts, let alone such unpleasant words.

Qiyun hugged Xiao An'er, her heart full of sourness, "It's going to be soon.

We can go back soon.

After we go back, we will never come here again, okay?"

Xiao An'er nodded slightly when he heard this.

Qiyun and Ye Shunan stayed until Zhai Jinghui came back from the palace.

Seeing Zhai Jinghui walking in, Qiyun said: "In the future, take care of the mouths of these people in your house.

Xiao An'er is a child with a delicate mind.

What those people say It will hurt him."

Zhai Jinghui didn't understand Qiyun's words for a moment and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Qiyun glanced at Xiao An'er sitting there and whispered: "Xiao An'er heard that the concubine in your house said that he was a bastard illegitimate child.

Think about it, what will An'er think in her heart?"

Hearing Qiyun say this, Zhai Jinghui also felt a surge of anger in his heart.

When he saw Xiao An'er sitting there with his head lowered, he suppressed the anger in his heart, walked slowly to Xiao An'er's side, and tried his best to She softened her voice and said, "An'er, don't care about what those people say, they are jealous.

An'er, that's nonsense."

After saying that, Zhai Jinghui took little An'er into his arms and asked softly: "Didn't dad tell you that if someone makes you unhappy, you can tell dad.

Daddy will punish them.

Come on, tell Daddy who you heard said that."

Xiao An'er just shook his head, and Qiyun on the side said angrily: "How can I punish them if I know who said it, and then make them hate An'er even more?

I don't want my son to have any accidents in your Prince Qi's palace.

If you really want peace, let us go home, and don’t bother us again from now on.”

Zhai Jinghui glanced at Xiao An'er in his arms, but did not respond to Qiyun's words.

He did not want to argue with Qiyun in front of Xiao An'er.

"I just came back from the palace.

It's time for you to take out my father's antidote," Zhai Jinghui looked at Ye Shunan who was sitting on the chair and said in a deep voice.

When Ye Shunan heard this, he turned to look at Yu Zhu who was standing beside him.

Yu Zhu understood and immediately took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, stepped forward and handed it to Zhai Jinghui's hand.

But I heard Ye Shunan say: "There is an antidote in this porcelain bottle, which can suppress the poison for a month."

Zhai Jinghui looked at the antidote in his hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "How can you come up with the final antidote?"

Ye Shunan smiled faintly when he heard this, "It's not like this question came from His Highness King Qi.

Isn't it you, His Highness King Qi, who wishes the emperor's death the most?

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

The fishing in troubled waters last night was really exciting, but it's a pity that Ah, His Highness Prince Qi failed in the end.”

"Miss Ye," Zhai Jinghui said with a gloomy face, "Don't talk nonsense."

The cold air emanating from Zhai Jinghui's body made little An'er in his arms tremble with fright.

Qiyun on the side quickly stepped forward to take little An'er out of Zhai Jinghui's arms, "You're so scared."

It’s time for the baby.”

Zhai Jinghui finally calmed down his aura of coldness, but did not let Qiyun take little An'er away from his arms.

"Okay, you go back first and come see An'er tomorrow."

He really didn't have time to deal with these people now.

After Qiyun, Ye Shunan and the others left, Ge Yunfu walked in again.

When Zhai Jinghui saw her coming in, he ordered the nanny beside him to carry little An'er down.

"You are the mistress of this palace, you should control the mouths of those people.

If An'er hears those words that she shouldn't hear again, I will punish you as well."

Zhai Jinghui was obviously very angry.

The sound is also a bit scary.

Ge Yunfu also knew that Zhai Jinghui could not be offended at this time, so she just responded softly and said nothing else.

Both of them were silent for a while.

Seeing that Zhai Jinghui's mood gradually stabilized, Ge Yunfu said, "What did the emperor say?"

"They gave my father poison.

He must take an antidote every month so that the poison in his body will not be released.

If there is any delay, my father will be poisoned and die."

Zhai Jinghui lowered his eyes and said deeply. vocal channel.

After hearing this, Ge Yunfu was secretly surprised, "They really found a good way to contain the emperor, but I have never heard of this kind of poison."

"Who knows, isn't one of them a doctor?

He seems to be able to make some poisons.

However, from what my father said, the poison seems to be related to Zhai Chenli's biological mother."

When Ge Yunfu heard this, her heart suddenly moved, but she tried to soften her voice and said: "This matter has something to do with King Zhao's biological mother, didn't King Zhao's biological mother die in childbirth?"

Zhai Jinghui immediately looked at Ge Yunfu in confusion, "Are you really not aware, or are you pretending not to know that Zhai Chenli's biological mother eloped with another man, but she seems to be really dead.

I listen to my father.

It seems that Zhai Chenli has visited his biological mother."

After listening to Zhai Jinghui's words, Ge Yunfu had thousands of thoughts flashing through her mind, and she clenched her hands unconsciously.

Even Zhai Jinghui on the side noticed her unusualness and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine.

I was just wondering if my father asked you about those assassins last night and what he said."

Zhai Jinghui frowned slightly and said: "I am also very puzzled about this.

After I entered the palace today, my father did not mention a word about the sudden attempt by the assassins to kill him last night.

It seemed that this matter had never happened before.

It has never happened before.

"Father, what does this mean?

But at this time, Ge Yunfu no longer had any extra thoughts to think about the emperor's intentions.

Her mind was now filled with other things.

"It seems that I still have to go back to my father to discuss this matter and see what he has in mind."

"Let me go back with you.

It just so happens that I haven't visited my father-in-law for a long time."

Zhai Jinghui was about to get up, but was stopped by Ge Yunfu, "No, I can go back alone.

My father is still angry with you because of An'er.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

You go back and discuss it with him now."

The matter cannot be discussed, and it would be better for me to go back alone."

Zhai Jinghui heard that Ge Yunfu's words made sense, so he did not insist and allowed Ge Yunfu to return to her parents' home alone.

However, what he didn't know was that although Ge Yunfu returned to her parents' home, the person she ultimately wanted to see was Zhai Chenli.

After Ge Yunfu's carriage came out of Ge Mansion, it went straight out of the city gate.

But Zhai Chenli didn't come to see Ye Shunan and the others that day, which surprised Ye Shunan.

Zhai Chenli used to run to them whenever he had nothing to do.

Why is it that it's already late in the evening and he hasn't been seen yet?

Where is the figure?

"Today is Zhai Chenli's birthday."

Sikong Zhanbai on the side explained Ye Shunan's doubts.

Ye Shunan immediately turned his head and looked at Sikong Zhanbai, "You already knew why you are now saying that today is Zhai Chenli's birthday, but we don't even know."

After getting along for these days, Zhai Chenli can be considered their friend.

Now that he knows that today is his birthday, he can't do nothing.

Sikong Zhanbai said aggrievedly: "You didn't ask me.

Besides, I don't want you to be so nice to that Zhai Chenli."

Ye Shunan smiled and stretched out her hand to pinch her superior Sikong Zhanbai's cheek, "Why are you so jealous, Your Highness?"

In any case, today is Zhai Chenli's birthday.

As Zhai Chenli's friends, they can't do nothing.

Ye Shunan stood up and walked out of the room, and discussed with Qiyun and Yuwei.

Although time was a little tight, it was not a big problem to arrange a birthday banquet.

After discussing this, Ye Shunan said to Yu Zhu: "Yuzhu, go to Prince Zhao's Mansion and invite Zhai Chenli to come over."

She knew that Zhai Chenli didn't have many friends in Taifu Kingdom who could celebrate his birthday.

They were the only friends.

"Okay, I'll go to Prince Zhao's Mansion right now."

But Yu Zhu was destined not to see Zhai Chenli when he went to Prince Zhao's Mansion, because he was not in Prince Zhao's Mansion at all at this time.

"After so many years, your habit has not changed.

On your birthday, you like to hide alone in a courtyard in the suburbs."

Ge Yunfu walked slowly to Zhai Chenli's side, wearing a crimson dress that made her look more attractive.

Romantic and charming.

Zhai Chenli just glanced at Ge Yunfu coldly and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing here?"

Ge Yunfu stretched out her hand to cover Zhai Chenli's hand that was about to pick up the wine bottle, and said softly: "Do you have to talk to me like this?

Although I failed to marry you in the end, our love is still there, Chenli, I always have you in my heart.”

Hearing this, Zhai Chenli slowly withdrew his hand, but smiled faintly, and the smile became more and more obvious, "Princess Qi, what tricks are you playing again?

What else can be better in your heart than sitting on the queen's throne?"

The position is important and I tell you, I will never compete with your husband for the throne in the future.

I have no interest in the throne now.

Don’t come to me again in the future.

I can’t give you what you want.”

"Why is it because you met your mother, right?

Do you know something?"

Ge Yunfu asked softly.

Zhai Chenli looked at Ge Yunfu in front of him and smiled sarcastically, "What should I know, Princess Qi?"

Ge Yunfu didn't answer, but picked up the jug and poured a glass of wine for Zhai Chenli.

She asked casually, "Where's that jade pendant you always wore before?

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Wasn't it left to you by your mother?"

" The red color of the setting sun left a hazy color on Ge Yunfu's face.

The face looked beautiful at this time, but Zhai Chenli's eyes were a bit colder, and his voice was soft.

Miao Ru promised, "Princess Qi lost her temper so quickly.

This is not like you before."

Ge Yunfu's expression changed after hearing this, but she quickly returned to her normal expression, and even had a slight smile on her face, "Chen Li, I don't understand what you mean by this."

"Whether you understand or not, I don't want to see you today.

You'd better go back before the city gate is closed."

Zhai Chenli said and picked up the glass of wine that Ge Yunfu had just poured for him. , smiled lightly and said: "Princess Qi, you still need to practice more when you are playing tricks in front of me."

Although her technique was fast enough, Zhai Chenli could already tell that she had added something to the wine.

Ge Yunfu's face completely darkened, "Chenli, I just want to see the jade pendant your mother left for you."

Zhai Chenli then raised his head to look at Ge Yunfu.

After staring at her face for a long time, he said: "Ge Yunfu, do you know how ugly you are now?"

"Chen Li" A woman, especially a beautiful woman, can never stand being called ugly, and this person is a man who has a certain status in her heart.

Zhai Chenli's words made Ge Yunfu a little angry.

Seeing that Zhai Chenli still looked calm, Ge Yunfu calmed down her emotions a little.

She didn't want to lose her composure in front of Zhai Chenli.

After a while, when Ge Yunfu spoke again, her voice was as calm as before, "When did you know?"

"After I visited my mother."

Ge Yunfu was silent.

No wonder he would say such words to her last time at the palace banquet, saying that she approached him because she wanted to get something from him.

It was also because of these words that Ge Yunfu suspected Zhai.

Chen Li already knew everything.

If this was really the case, then he would not be able to let Zhai Chenli go so easily.

"Chen Li, I don't want to be your enemy.

As long as you give me those two jade pendants, I can leave Zhai Jinghui and marry you."

As soon as Ge Yunfu finished speaking, Zhai Chenli laughed.

His pair of deep pool-like eyes looked at Ge Yunfu, and he seemed to be laughing a little.

This kind of smile is tantamount to a kind of humiliation for Ge Yunfu, and Ge Yunfu's face becomes increasingly ugly.

"Princess Qi, you are too confident, don't you think that if you are willing to marry, then I will be willing to marry you?"

Zhai Chenli said as he glanced at Ge Yunfu up and down with his eyes, tutted in his mouth, and shook his head: "To be honest, I really don't like you now.

Of course, I never fell in love with you before.

I have told you this before.

Princess Qi, I really don't know what courage you have.

Say this."

Ge Yunfu has been held in the palm of his hand since he was a child.

When has he been insulted like this?

You have to give it even if you don’t give it.”

Zhai Chenli said with a smile: "When did Princess Qi change her career to become a bandit and robber?

Does Your Highness Prince Qi know?"

At the same time, a group of black-clad killers leapt out from all directions, surrounding Zhai Chenli and Ge Yunfu.

Zhai Chenli then shook the wine bottle in his hand and chuckled: "It seems that this time, Princess Qi is serious about it.

Today is a very good day."

Zhai Chenli knew that Ge Yunfu's character must be impeccable.

Just after hearing the meaning of her words, she had already decided to break up with herself.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

She would not leave any room for herself, so the people around here There must be more than just killers.

After all, the two sapphire unicorn pendants in their hands are what they have coveted for a long time, so they must be fully prepared.

What a coincidence, today happens to be my birthday.

Maybe today will become my memorial day every year in the future.

It's really ridiculous to say it.

"Chenli, I don't want to embarrass you.

As long as you give me those two jade pendants, I will definitely not hurt you."

Ge Yunfu said seriously, staring at Zhai Chenli in front of him.

If possible, she didn't want to hurt Zhai Chenli, but no, she must get those two jade pendants.

Zhai Chenli glanced at the black-clothed killers surrounding him, and finally his eyes fell on Ge Yunfu, "Princess Qi, it's really hard for you.

Because of these two jade pendants, you can endure by my side for so many years.

Today is also my birthday, and I really admire you for being able to kill him."

After Zhai Chenli finished speaking, he threw the wine bottle in his hand to the ground, "No need to talk nonsense.

Since you have made up your mind to kill me, then come on."

"I didn't want to kill you, I just wanted those two jade pendants."

Zhai Chenli sneered, "Those were left to me by my mother.

I will never give them to you."

Ge Yunfu's eyes suddenly turned cold, "In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Ge Yunfu said solemnly to the killers behind him: "Catch them alive."

"Yes" everyone said, and the black-clothed killers all attacked Zhai Chenli.

Zhai Chenli had no weapons in his hands, so he could only fight with his bare hands, and naturally he was at a disadvantage.

And Ge Yunfu was determined to get the jade pendant today, so the killers she found were all very strong in martial arts.

Zhai Chenli was also difficult to defeat with four fists, so it was quite difficult to deal with them.

Seeing that he was obviously at a disadvantage, Zhai Chenli couldn't help but laugh at himself: It seems that God has treated me well.

My birthday is a memorial day, which is meaningful enough.

But at this moment, I heard a sweet shout, "Your Majesty, take the sword."

Zhai Chenli saw a flash of cold light from the corner of his eyes, and subconsciously caught the hilt of the sword.

He took a closer look and saw that the person who broke through the siege of black-clothed assassins and came towards him was none other than Yu Zhu.

Without any time to think about it, Zhai Chenli began to seriously deal with the killers in front of him.

Yu Zhu quickly came to Zhai Chenli's side and asked in a low voice: "My lord, are you okay?"

Zhai Chenli smiled lightly, "Before you came, I thought I was dead today."

Yu Zhu said in a deep voice: "Even if I come, I'm afraid you won't survive, my lord."

"Um" "There are also many assassins lurking outside."

Yu Zhu said solemnly.

"Then how did you get in?"

Zhai Chenli asked in a deep voice while dealing with the killer beside him.

Yu Zhu took out a small brown pill-like thing from his arms and whispered to Zhai Chenli: "Cover your eyes."

Zhai Chenli understood and immediately covered his eyes.

Yu Zhu instantly crushed the pill-like thing in his hand, and a burst of white smoke spread.

Each of the assassins covered their eyes and screamed, unable to open their eyes at all.

Yu Zhu took the opportunity and pulled Zhai Chenli to fly away.

But their difficulties have just begun, because the killers outside are also difficult to deal with, and there are many killers arranged by Ge Yunfu, and Yu Zhu has limited things in his hands and cannot cope with them for long.

Zhai Chenli was seen holding a long sword, and Yu Zhu was holding a short sword.

They stood with their backs facing each other, dealing with the attacking assassins.

Fortunately, Yu Zhu is a secret guard who has been carefully trained for many years.

She clearly understands all the tricks of these killers.

In addition, Zhai Chen's martial arts skills in parting were not weak.

The two of them cooperated with each other with a long sword and a short sword, and they quickly fought their way out of the siege of the killers.

But Ge Yunfu gave the killers a death order.

No matter what, Zhai Chenli could not be let go today, so the killers were also in hot pursuit.

At this time, it was already dark and the city gate was closed.

Yu Zhu and Zhai Chenli had no way to return to the city, so they had to find a nearby place to hide.

"How do you know there is a cave here?"

Zhai Chenli looked at Yu Zhu in surprise.

"I noticed it when I came here."

This is what a secret guard must train.

No matter when and where, you must pay attention to the surrounding terrain, so as to ensure that you and your master can be protected when danger comes.

Yu Zhu's faint words surprised Zhai Chenli.

She was familiar with this place, but she had never noticed that there was a cave here.

She just took a look when she came to find her.

Take it to heart and find it exactly.

Yuzhu still said to himself: "It seems that we have to spend the night in this cave tonight, but fortunately, it is approaching summer now, and it will not be too cold at night."

Yuzhu said, and looked for branches and the like nearby to cover the entrance of the cave, lest the killers find them.

Until she arranged the entrance of the cave to be secretive enough, Yu Zhu returned to the cave and sat down.

Zhai Chenli watched in a daze as Yu Zhu finished all this, then leaned against the stone wall and closed his eyes to rest.

"Why did you appear here?"

After a moment, Zhai Chenli broke the silence.

"After the girl knew that today was your birthday, the prince, she planned to prepare a birthday banquet for the prince, so she asked me to go to Prince Zhao's Mansion to invite the prince over.

The guard at Prince Zhao's Mansion said that the prince was here, so I came over."

But unexpectedly, But she encountered such a dangerous situation.

"Why didn't you just leave?

You are not my subordinate and you don't have to save me."

Zhai Chenli turned his head to look at Yu Zhu and asked softly.

Yu Zhu frowned slightly when he heard this, "If I don't save you, the girl will feel uncomfortable."

Zhai Chenli immediately looked at Yu Zhu in surprise, and then looked her up and down.

Yu Zhu was also confused about what Zhai Chenli was looking at, and felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

"Don't you like Ye Shunan?"

Just because he didn't want to make Ye Shunan feel uncomfortable, he risked his life because he really didn't know whether to call her stupid or stupid.

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhu just glanced at Zhai Chenli briefly, then looked away, closing his eyes to rest.

Now it was Zhai Chenli's turn to be depressed and couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you even curious about why Princess Qi sent a killer to kill me?

Why didn't you ask anything?"

Yu Zhu still didn't speak, his eyes were closed tightly, as if he was asleep.

She is a secret guard and can only obey orders and cannot ask questions.

Seeing Yu Zhu's indifferent look, Zhai Chenli stopped looking for trouble, closed his eyes and rested his mind, and fell asleep unconsciously.

When he woke up again, Zhai Chenli was woken up by Yu Zhu.

As soon as Zhai Chenli opened his eyes, he saw Yu Zhu handing over the water filled with leaves, "It's clean, you can drink it."

Yu Zhu's words were still concise and clear.

Zhai Chenli was indeed thirsty, so he took the water handed over by Yu Zhu and drank it clean.

"I just went out to take a look.

There are no ambush around.

Those killers have probably left.

We can go into the city."

Yu Zhu said solemnly.

Zhai Chenli nodded blankly.

Why did he feel like he had become an idiot in front of this Yu Zhu?

Both of them were people who knew Qinggong, and it didn't take long for them to reach the city gate.

After entering the city, Zhai Chenli did not return to Prince Zhao's Mansion, but followed Yu Zhu directly to Ye Shunan and the others.

And Ye Shunan and the others had been worried all night.

Ever since Yu Zhu left yesterday evening, they had been unable to find anyone.

They sent people to Zhao Wang's Mansion to ask, only to find out that Yu Zhu might have gone out of the city to look for Zhai Chenli, but the city The door has been closed, and they can't go out of the city to find anyone.

This morning, Sikong Zhanbai was about to leave the city to find someone, when Yu Zhu walked in with Zhai Chenli.

"What happened yesterday?

Why didn't you come back all night?"

Yuwei said quickly as soon as she saw Yu Zhu, "Shu Nan was so anxious that he didn't sleep all night."

Yu Zhu then walked up to Ye Shunan and said softly: "I'm worried about you, girl.

Yesterday" Yu Zhu briefly told Ye Shunan and the others about the situation when he found Zhai Chenli yesterday.

Hearing this, Ye Shunan subconsciously held Yu Zhu's hand and said, "Are you okay?

Are you injured?"

"I'm fine, I don't have any injuries on my body."

Yu Zhu said quickly.

Ye Shunan was relieved and said, "Fortunately, everything is fine."

At this time, Zhai Chenli slowly walked forward and said with a chuckle: "This Yuzhu is amazing.

Without her, my birthday yesterday would have become my memorial day in the future."

Ye Shunan said with a smile: "I originally prepared a birthday banquet for you, but who knew that you were experiencing life and death outside the city.

As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later.

I think His Highness King Zhao will have smooth sailing in the future."

Zhai Chenli also smiled and said: "Then let's borrow Miss Ye's good words."

To be honest, he really felt like he had narrowly escaped death
