Chapter 248 - Ambush
Mo Youyou suddenly felt that she was becoming more and more emotional. If it was in current life, she would do anything to achieve her goal, and not like how she was now. She had clearly wanted to use Fu Yafang to teach Helian Yu a lesson, but now she was moved by Fu Yafang and tried to think of a way to save her, to help her and Helian Yu.They had even lost their initial hatred towards Helian Yu.
It turned out that she was slowly becoming less and less like a qualified killer. However, she really liked this feeling.
When Mo Youyou and Helian Yuchen left, Helian Yuchen left two bottles of antidote for Fu Yafang, and wrote down the method to release blood on a piece of paper, and gave it to Fu Yafang.“The setting sun is infinitely good, it’s just that it’s near dusk.” As Mo Youyou sat on the horse, he mumbled these words casually, but they entered Helian Yuchen’s ears.The two of them stood at the entrance of Ming You Kingdom city and watched the sun set in the west. Helian Yuchen looked at Mo Youyou and asked:“Are we going to the Tong Li Kingdom now?”Mo Youyou’s clear eyes did not reveal any emotion. In the blink of an eye, she said to Helian Yuchen.
“Yes, to the Tong Li Kingdom.”The two of them looked at each other and laughed, waved their hands and raised the reins. With a roar, they quickly rushed towards Tong Li Kingdom.
The sky gradually darkened, everything looked calm and peaceful, but there were people who could not sit still in Ming You Kingdom.
Inside Chang Ning Palace, “Wei Changning” sat on the couch, one hand gently caressing Bai Xue who had become multicolored by Mo Youyou.
She raised her charming eyes, and a burst of coldness flashed across them, her charming eyes looked at Helian Yu who was seated beside her.She smiled coquettishly, “What’s wrong with Yu’er? With a face filled with resentment, it seems like she’s already a resentful wife. ”
Helian Yu’s current mood was indeed terrible to the extreme.
He thought that today’s wedding would be a farce and would definitely end with Fu Yafang’s disappearance. If he went to Grand Preceptor Fu’s residence to receive the bride, if he was unable to welcome anyone, then there would be a problem, and that would be when Grand Preceptor Fu’s manor failed to make an appointment with him.It was also Grand Preceptor Fu who held the responsibility for royal father’s crime.
Only, Helian Yu had never expected that just as he was about to return home, Fu Yafang would actually be sent back to Grand Preceptor Fu’s residence in her carriage.They had no choice but to marry Fu Yafang into Prince Xiang’s Manor’s family and become her concubines.
Having dealt with the ministers from the imperial court earlier, Helian Yu left Fu Yafang and sneaked into the Chang Ning Palace.Taking a deep breath, Helian Yu gazed at “Wei Changning” with his deep eyes. It was not only his misconception, but he also felt that he was in a mess today.
He turned his head and glanced at the servants, signalling for them to leave. After Helian Yu and “Wei Changning” left in the hall, he reached out and touched “Wei Changning’s” waist. ”
If it were in the past, not to mention Helian Yu making his move, Wei Changning would definitely pounce on him before Helian Yu could make his move. Only, Helian Yu never would have thought that the current “Wei Changning” would actually swiftly avoid his hand.
Taking back the hand that was held in midair, Helian Yu’s eyes darkened. “Wei Changning” ‘s complexion was also not very good, and she thought in his heart: “Trash! You can’t get involved with Helian Yi, but you actually got hooked up with this stupid man! ”Helian Yu was suspicious, why was this woman acting so abnormal today?He coldly stared at “Wei Changning”, as if he wanted to see through her.“Wei Changning” felt like she had lost her composure. After all, her current identity was not Southern Wasteland’s Holy Maiden but Queen Wei Changning. After staring blankly for a while, she pretended to have a headache as she raised her eyebrows and said to Helian Yu: “Yu’er, I’m a little tired today. If there’s nothing else, you should leave!”
Helian Yu was still staring coldly at “Wei Changning”, which made her panic a little.“Yu’er, is there something on Imperial Mother’s face?” Why are you looking at your mother like that? ”Helian Yu saw that the woman in front of him was indeed Wei Changning, he retracted his gaze and stood up abruptly, and replied irritably, “Since mother is tired, then I will take my leave first.”
With that, he turned and left the Chang Ning Palace.He originally thought that Wei Changning would stop him when he turned around to leave, but he never expected that even after he left, she didn’t call out to him.“Wei Changning!” As she watched Helian Yu’s figure disappear in front of the Chang Ning Palace’s entrance, she slightly squinted her eyes, casting a look of disdain at her white and fair fingers, and cried out.“Yuan Zun!”
Suddenly, a man dressed in black silk clothes appeared in front of “Wei Changning” like a fog.A trace of yin energy was emitted from between his brows. His pupils were dark red, his head was always tilted to the left, and the corners of his mouth were slightly twitching to the right. He looked extremely strange.He opened his mouth, and his voice was heavy and cold.“Holy Maiden!”“Wei Changning” asked after looking at him, “Where did Helian Yi and his group go?!”The Immortal Master replied, “I’ve just passed through the Purple Bamboo Woods. I’m still about twenty li away from the Tong Li Kingdom!”“Send people to keep an eye on them!” “Let’s do it tonight!”“Yes, Holy Maiden!”
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by a call from “Wei Changning”.“Wait!”“Holy Maiden, do you have any other orders?”“Send someone to find out where Mo Youyou is! Once they found her, they must lure her to Helian Yi! If you want to deal with Helian Yi, you must first find his weak point! ”
After saying that, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes. The Yuan Zun obeyed and respectfully left.“Wei Changning” stayed in the palace for half an hour. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly stood up and ordered someone to cook supper. Then, she brought her servant girl and headed towards the direction of the imperial study.In the direction of the Ming You Kingdom, Helian Yi and the rest had just left the Purple Bamboo Woods, and were resting right where they were.
Helian Yi sat on the horse, his eyelids drooping slightly, his ears moving slightly, as if he could hear the grass rustling in the wind around him.
Suddenly, a glint of killing intent flashed across his eyes. With a low and deep voice, he commanded everyone present.“Protect the princess! An ambush! ”
When the guards who were resting heard Helian Yi’s order, they quivered and suddenly stood up. They raised their swords and scanned their surroundings.
Suddenly, a ball of black mist appeared behind one of the guards. Helian Yi’s ears twitched, but by the time he heard the subtle sound of the wind and turned to warn the guard, it was already too late.Soon, another ball of black fog appeared and one of the guards fell.Helian Yi suddenly closed his eyes and sat on the horse’s back, the silver needles in his hands swept towards the place where he had heard the slightest movement.A cloud of black fog was shattered, another cloud of black fog was destroyed. At this time, the guards had also regained their confidence, they picked up their swords and started slashing at their surroundings.In the dark night, a strange voice shouted, “Retreat!”Very quickly, there were no more movements. Everything became quiet.
Helian Yi quickly got off the horse and checked the trails on the ground that looked like rotten water. He also asked about the situation of the injured guards and gave them the best medicine to treat their injuries.
Helian Yao’er who was sleeping in the horse carriage suddenly woke up. She yawned, leaned out of the window, and asked:
“Royal brother, where are we?”
