Luo Shuyu: "We are not an immortal, so it's impossible for us to take care of everything, but we can counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir. Your Highness, in the future, this kind of life may continue, and we can't be frightened just because of this attack, Your Highness, you are not such a person."

    Li Mingjin blamed himself: "But if something happens to you, I'll be scared out of my wits. Am I quite useless? If I can't protect you well, I will follow you."

    Luo Shuyu had no choice but to become a confidant and continue to enlighten Li Mingjin: "In fact it's not as bad as you imagined, and nothing happened to me. You said it was your first time protected someone behind your back, so is it useless for you to protect me? In my heart, now you are a great hero."

    Li Mingjin kissed Luo Shuyu's forehead: "A great hero deserves a beauty."

    Luo Shuyu nodded : "I'm a beauty." After speaking, he felt that he was a little shameless.

    Regarding today's events, no matter how calm Luo Shuyu was, he still had lingering fears.

    In order to prevent Li Mingjin from continuing to think about today's affairs, Luo Shuyu simply changed the subject: "Your Highness, why don't you ask General Wei how the interrogation of those assassins going? "

    Li Mingjin's attention was indeed distracted, and his eyes became sharp: "I'll go and ask , no, I will do to the interrogation myself."

    Luo Shuyu said: "Your Highness, no matter whether you want to ask or not, don't disturb our own rhythm. The assassination this time may still have the possibility of testing. The mother concubine mentioned in the letter that father is in a good state of mind after he recovered from his illness. According to her, if there are no accidents, at least he can live for a few more years. We need to stabilize the current situation. "

    Li Mingjin did what he said, and immediately got up and went out: "I know, these assassins really deserve to die."

    Before leaving the door, Li Mingjin also sent more people to protect Luo Shuyu.

    At least when the assassination happened, no one around them betrayed them. This was a good thing. Otherwise, the assassin wouldn't rush towards Luo Shuyu after Ansan left the stands. Even if Li Mingjin didn't block the knife, other dark guards would block it. Luo Shuyu felt that Li Mingjin was still too nervous about him.

    Did the crown prince really mind about Li Mingjin?

    As expected, nothing could be found from the dead soldiers. However, from the beginning Luo Shuyu didn't have any hope for this, instead he was more willing to point the finger at the Fourth Prince.

    Shen Mingyun had a system, and only when the system gave the tasks would the Fourth Prince take action against them through Shen Mingyun's "suggestion".

    There were two benefits of getting rid of Li Mingjin at this time. One was to shift the blame to the crown prince who hadn't been going well recently, and the other was to put Li Mingjin in front of the stage to attract firepower and let others see his current ability. The emperor's adult princes were not only the crown prince and the fourth prince, but also Li Mingjin. The Yan family should also deal with the third prince, not just the fourth prince.

    Besides, Emperor Tiansheng had been fond of Concubine Mei recently, if the third prince was not favored, how could Concubine Mei be favored again.

    As Luo Shuyu guessed, they couldn't get any useful informations from the dead soldiers, and all these people were dealt with in the end, leaving no one behind.

    Li Mingjin and the others understood that since the dead soldiers appeared, it meant that the power in the capital had begun to pay attention to them.

    What he did in Gucheng would soon be reported back to the capital.

    Li Mingjin, who had been silent for many years, gradually appeared in front of everyone, and what he did in the north was quickly reported back to the capital.

    Now, the crown prince and Prime Minister Yan no longer kept distance, their relationship was closer than ever, and the two were already tied to the same boat.

    Today was the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and tomorrow would be the 30th of the New Year.

    Prime Minister Yan sent a letter to the crown prince, inviting him to come to the Yan's mansion.

    When the crown prince received the letter from Prime Minister Yan, his heart thumped.

    He came to the Prime Minister's mansion quite low-key. He entered the Prime Minister's mansion and went straight to the Prime Minister Yan's study. They always talked about important matters here, and this time was no exception.

    Prime Minister Yan was indeed waiting for him in the study, but this time Prime Minister Yan didn't tell him directly, but closed the door, turned an ancient porcelain bottle on the Bogu shelf, and an invisible door suddenly opened.

    "The crown prince, the matter we are going to talk about today is very important, so go inside and we will talk,"

    The crown prince didn't doubt him, he thought that the matter they were going to talk about was really important: "Well.”

    The secret room was indeed very quiet, but in addition to the two of them, there was another person who the crown prince was too familiar with that he couldn't be more familiar anymore.

    That person turned her head, and the crown prince exclaimed, "Mother!Why are you here?"

    Yes, it was the current queen. She arrived at the Prime minister's Mansion one step earlier than the crown prince, and she quietly left the palace.

    The current queen of Emperor Tiansheng was five years younger than him, just after her forty-fifth birthday, and she still had a charm. She had been in the high position for many years, even if she put on the clothes of an ordinary woman, she still had the dignity accumulated over the years. Finally, she was going to say what she had been worried about for many years, but this matter was really hard to say.

    Prime Minister Yan shook his head helplessly, and said to the queen, "The Queen, you should just tell the crown prince."

    The crown prince's heart beat extremely fast since he entered the door. He seemed to guess what his grandfather and mother wanted to say. He suddenly wanted to escape from this secret room, he didn't want to hear anything!

The author has something to say: The Third prince: Wife, listen up, you are a spy who steals my company’s business secrets, and you are caught by me, the smart CEO. Later I decide to punish you in a loving way and make you beg for mercy ~

Luo Shuyu: You put medicine in the wine to punish me, but later I change the glass when you are not paying attention, so you drink the glass of wine with medicine. Who knows, you are allergic to a certain medicine and die suddenly on the bed.

The Third Prince: ... I want to do it all over again, I can live!

Luo Shuyu: Oh.
