No assassin would do something so obvious in front of so many people. Princess Wuyou was indeed intelligent.
”So it's Your Highness the Princess. Please wait a moment.” The guard said respectfully. There was no trace of anger on his pretty face. In just a short moment, Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou saw Jiang Zilan.
Jiang Zilan was still wearing his patrol uniform. However, he was no longer as high-spirited as he was before. Now, he looked even more dispirited. He also looked at Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou with resentment.
The others didn't know what was wrong, but he had personally let Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou in. Naturally, he was the first to suspect these two. In particular … Neither of them was the type to stop things. Only the heavens knew how much he wanted to rush out to find Princess Wuyou and Mu Ru Yue when they were interrogating him!
”I wonder what business does Your Highness have with my wife?” Jiang Zilan's tone was not very good, and was even a little tired.
Princess Wuyou's expression froze when she heard this. However, she still raised her head arrogantly, and said willfully: ”Your subordinates wanted to interrogate this princess, and even threatened this princess with a knife. Jiang Zilan, you've grown up! You even dare to block this princess' way! ”
Hearing that, Jiang Zilan felt a headache coming on. ”My dear mistress, some of them have never seen you before, so it is normal for them to stop you. Moreover, His Majesty personally ordered that no one was to leave until the assassins were thoroughly investigated. ”
”Even this princess is not allowed to? Humph! This princess will still try to assassinate the Imperial Advisor? ” Princess Wuyou said with a dissatisfied expression.
”Young mistress, you should just relax for a while. You can leave after you find out more about it.” Jiang Zilan said helplessly. It wasn't that he didn't want to let Murong Yue and Wuyou go, it was just that the situation was getting serious.
Furthermore … It was definitely done by these two women!
Jiang Zilan called out in his heart, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he turned to the two guards and said, ”You two, this is His Majesty's Ninth Princess and Seventh Princess. You've offended your benefactor, why haven't you apologized yet?”
When the two saber-wielding guards heard his words, they shuddered and immediately kneeled down.
”Humph!” ”All of you are sensible.” Princess Wuyou harrumphed coldly, turned around and looked at Jiang Zilan, feeling wronged, ”I said … Can't you really let me go back? If royal father finds out about my Li Palace, then I'm dead for sure! ”
You know you made a mistake? Jiang Zilan rolled his eyes. At this point in time, he was on the verge of losing all his strength to fight back. He snappily said, ”Anyways, I have already been killed by you guys, so hurry up and leave. ”Later on, remember to go to the prison to see young master.”
Jiang Zilan then ordered the guard at the door, ”Your highness, the princess wants to return to the palace. Please move out of her way.”
Jiang Zilan had absolute power here. Even though an assassination attempt had occurred, the Emperor didn't question the Jiang family in the slightest. He just asked them to stay here and stand guard. If the assassin was found, the matter would be exposed.
If he hadn't, His Majesty wouldn't have done anything to him.
Thus, when these people heard Jiang Zilan's order, they immediately made way for Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou.
”Thank you.” Princess Wuyou turned her head, smiled mischievously at Jiang Zilan, and left with Mu Rong Yue. Jiang Zilan watched the back of Princess Wuyou as a trace of helplessness flashed across his eyes, as well as a little doting.
