Chapter 1355: Prince Li's Extra: Escape
It was a child's play assassination. Apart from the assassins who were killed, the most unlucky ones were the guards and maids who were protecting A Man and Su Jinxuan. Most of them were killed or injured.
After counting the number of people, Murong Kai arranged for people to make a roster and sent people back to guard the previous battlefield. He said that after returning to the palace, he would arrange for people to come back and have people gather the dead guards and maids and let them rest in their graves.
Murong Kai arranged everything in perfect order, and Aman only had to sit on the sidelines and watch.
"This guy is pretty good to you. From now on..." Duke Chu Zhenhua saw Aman staring in Murong Kai's direction and said with a smile.
"That's how my vision could be wrong." Speaking of Murong Kai, Ah Man's eyes were filled with a glimmer of happiness.
"It is said that the Queen Mother of Dazhou is very capable. Now it seems that the children he raised are indeed good. Since he is willing to accompany you into the palace as Xiao Yuanzi, you should discuss more matters in the palace with him. , If he is willing to protect you, he will be able to protect you."
Duke Zhenguo gave serious instructions. Before, he was worried about Aman returning to the palace like this, but now that Murong Kai is protecting their siblings, it shouldn't be too difficult for them in the palace.
"After you return to the palace, don't fight with your father, and don't interfere in court affairs, including uncle's affairs." Chu Zhenhua told him softly. During this period, he always reminded himself that every time Ah Man They all agreed against their will.
Her mother and queen were gone, and her uncle's family were her few remaining relatives. How could she ignore the safety of her relatives.
"Don't worry, uncle, I will take good care of Xuan'er and myself."
Aman actually didn't understand her uncle's choice. She would be in prison when she returned home. What she couldn't understand even more was that during such a long time in the imperial mausoleum, her uncle had many opportunities to find evidence to prove his innocence, but he chose not to do anything.
"Remember what you promised uncle, you and Jinxuan will be fine, and everything will be fine in the future." After saying this, Chu Zhenhua couldn't help but sigh.
"Everything has been arranged. We have to return to the palace quickly, otherwise we really won't be able to enter the capital at night." Murong Kai smiled and said to his nephew and uncle who were whispering.
The two of them quickly got on their horses, got on their carriages, and hurried toward the capital.
Except that the team is not as big as before, it seems to be no different from before, except of course Zhen Junran.
Zhen Junran, who had been determined to win before, was like an eggplant beaten by frost, wilting behind the team.
He is not stupid, he knows very well that Aman and Murong Kai now doubt his relationship with the assassin, and he has no evidence to prove his innocence, but he is unwilling to leave like this, so he can only follow the team , to see if there is anything else that can make his presence felt in front of Ah Man.
Of course, in addition to actively expressing himself, he was still very worried in his heart. The two assassin leaders were also being escorted by guards. Killing and silencing them was the best option, but how could he do it?
Zhen Junran struggled all the way. When he was about to reach the palace gate, Murong Kai suddenly turned around on his horse, reached his side, and said: "Mr. Zhen said that he would escort the princess back. Now the princess will be at the palace gate soon. You can gone back."
"I really want to escort the princess back, I..." Zhen Junran couldn't see the sarcasm in Murong Kai's eyes, so he explained forcefully, and Murong Kai just looked at him with a smile.
After he finished speaking, Murong Kai said: "I have always noticed Mr. Zhen's charm. I will talk to the princess in detail after he returns to the palace."
"No, no need." Zhen Junran hurriedly stopped her. He no longer wanted to leave a good impression in front of Princess Jiaoyang, he just wanted the assassin's story not to be revealed.
After saying that, he left as if he was running away, as if by leaving, he could draw a clear line from what happened before.
Seeing Zhen Junran leaving in embarrassment, the smile in Murong Kai's eyes became deeper and deeper.
