Mu Yunyao walked up to check his pulse. When she found that his pulse was still stable, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart, "Second Brother, you've seen that the six taels of silver's injuries are very severe. If there's any disrespect, please don't take it to heart." King Yu's expression was still gloomy, but it had become much calmer than before. Hearing Mu Yunyao's words, he lightly nodded and said, "Fourth Sister-in-Law, don't worry. I know that I haven't done anything to harm your Second Sister-in-Law, so I won't vent my anger on him.
"What?" His body was weak, but his voice was not loud."I was ordered by Master to bring someone to escort Princess Yu back to the palace, and everything went smoothly in the beginning. When we reached the intersection of Shuang Hua Street, I felt that something was amiss, and before I could react, a crossbow arrow was fired.
I had wanted to bring my men to protect Princess Yu and leave, but more than a dozen internal experts suddenly appeared around me. Judging from the martial arts path, they should be from the northern border."Cough cough ..." Yu Heng stepped forward and gave him some water. Only then did he feel better and continued, "Princess Yu and I were captured at the same time. At the beginning, we were separated and the King came to us.
When Princess Yu scolded the King for his audacity, and afterwards she begged him to let go of her child and the like ... "
I didn't want to, so he got someone to feed me the medicine. Fortunately, someone asked for an audience, and the King left in a hurry. I controlled the medicine and didn't do anything that would harm Princess Yu ... "
"O King, what a good 'O King'!" King Yu's expression was gloomy to the extreme. He ferociously slammed the table, causing the teacup to shake and tea to splash out, "I will hack him into a thousand pieces!"
Mu Yunyao was shocked in her heart, "Second Brother, the Emperor has already ordered you to supervise the affairs of the court. You must think twice before you act. The Grand Princess repeatedly reminded you to be careful and not leave anyone behind." Sometimes, the higher a person was, the more things they had to worry about and the more unable they to act willfully.
King Yu stood up and paced back and forth in the room, his eyes bloodshot. If the King were right in front of him right now, he would have torn his life apart.
He walked back and forth a dozen times before stopping beside the table. He threw the teacup in his hand onto the ground and said, "I fight for power, but I can't even protect my beloved wife and children. I have no way to avenge them."
"Second brother, calm down. Although you can't kill your enemy, there are many ways to avenge your enemy. Sometimes, a person can only live a little longer before being punished. After death, there is nothing left."
King Yu kept gasping, and only after a while did he calm down, "Fourth brother, you are right. If I die, there will be nothing left. Fourth Sister-in-Law, I'll have to trouble you to tell Imperial Aunt that I won't let her down."
"It's easy to guess the whereabouts of those people, " King Yu said coldly."They must be in the Li Clan!"
Yue Yang nodded his head, thinking the same thing: "Second brother, it's already late, you should rest first, from tomorrow onwards, you will have to go to the imperial court to manage the affairs of the empire. Furthermore, with today's matter, I'm afraid there will be a fight to fight.
"Alright." Looking at King Yue and Mu Yunyao, King Yu felt apologetic."You've just gotten married and have not slept for two days because of me and your second sister-in-law. I'll remember that in my heart ..."
"Second brother doesn't need to be so formal when he says that, " Wang Yue stood up and lightly touched King Yu's shoulder with his fist."Between brothers, there's no need to say all this."
"Yes." King Yu nodded, rejoicing in his heart. It was fortunate to have the two of them, otherwise, with just his abilities alone, Fang Hua would not have been able to survive this battle.
Mu Yunyao looked at her injuries once again."Six liang, it's inconvenient for you to move right now. You can temporarily recuperate at King Yu's Mansion. I'll replace the guards around your courtyard. When your injuries recover, we'll consider other things."
"Alright, thank you, master." Liu Gan blinked as he looked at Mu Yunyao attentively, "Mistress, there are also many experts in the northern border, especially that Guo s. That person has a ruthless nature and his methods are strange, you should be careful."
Mu Yunyao nodded, "I know, don't worry."
King Yue accompanied Mu Yunyao outside. When they were walking out of the family carriage, their footsteps suddenly stopped and they turned to instruct Yu Heng, "Go find a rod for His Highness the King Yu. Make sure you have it sturdy. Once wrapped in cloth, send it over to him."
Yu Heng was startled and immediately replied, "Yes."
King Yue supported Mu Yunyao as they sat in the carriage. He held her and leaned against his shoulder."Yao`er, are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Mu Yunyao nodded."Mn, Second Sister-in-Law doesn't know how to feel sad when she wakes up, I really didn't think that the King would be so sinister to his bones. Moreover, there was six liang.
"The smell has changed." The King's trick was really vicious. The Northern Frontier Princess had only just finished messing things up with the Duke of Yue at their wedding. Everyone knew that she was a subordinate of Mu Yunyao and that she was a very trusted one at that. If he had offended Princess Yu, then Mu Yunyao would definitely receive the wrath of King Yu. According to the rules ...
With how much King Yue cared about her, she would naturally not let her feel wronged. Maybe, the two brothers would become enemies with each other because of this.
How could King Yue not feel relieved in his heart? "That's right, it's all thanks to you this time ..."
Mu Yunyao leaned on King Yue's shoulder, her heart gradually calming down. Weariness flooded her body and she quickly fell asleep.
Within King Yu's Mansion, King Yu took the wooden stick that Yu Heng had given him. With a dangerous glint in his eyes, he said, "Help me convey my gratitude to the Fourth Sister-in-Law. After that, he carried the wooden stick with him and mounted the horse to Duke Yu's Mansion."
In the Duke's Mansion, the female servants were gathered around the study room, clamoring for an audience with the King. The guards moved forward with the ice blades in their hands. Their expressions were firm and their faces were ice-cold. They didn't budge the slightest bit from the noise of the female servants.
