Chapter 909 His White Moonlight 42
When Yuwen Xue went to Gushui City a few months ago, she traveled by carriage the whole way.

Now, when she returned to the capital, she asked to ride a horse herself.

Lou Yunsheng was worried that something might happen to her, so he immediately refused.

Yuwen Xue no longer expects Lou Yunsheng to understand anything about her.

She understood that the person who understood her best in this world was Yu Muhuai.

Yu Muhuai:
So Yuwen Xue took it upon herself to find Yu Muhuai and asked her to teach her.

Yu Muhuai readily agreed.

After two days of instruction, Yuwen Xue finally learned to ride a horse.

Because he was afraid that she might fall because she wasn't familiar with the ropes at first, Yu Muhuai walked on either side of Yuwen Xue the whole way.

Yuwen Xue had no martial arts skills and almost fell off her horse several times at first. Fortunately, Yu Muhuai was quick-witted and caught Yuwen Xue, while also controlling the horse.

Lou Yunsheng was always a step too slow.

He could only stand there dumbfounded, watching the two women embracing each other, feeling as if a thousand horses were galloping through his heart, crushing his little heart.

The people around witnessed this scene, and they were already used to it.

At first, everyone was quite surprised. These two women, who should have been at odds, now had a relationship that was even better than that of a married couple.

But after seeing it so many times, I got used to it.

Some even speculated that the two women might want to become sworn sisters and serve Prince Duan together.

Some speculate that Yuwen Xue wanted to divorce Prince Duan, and since the two had lost their feelings for each other, she became friends with Yu Muhuai.

Even more outrageous, some people speculated that it was because Yuwen Xue finally discovered who her true love was, not her husband Lou Yunsheng, but Yu Muhuai.

Big White:
Lou Yunsheng had no time to inquire about the speculations outside, because he was immersed in his own grief the whole way.

The flood was resolved, the plague was resolved, and now the thing that troubled him most was his relationship with these two women.

As for Lou Yunxian, he no longer takes him seriously.

Because he already possessed evidence that could bring down Lou Yunxian.

Upon entering the court, Lou Yunsheng first knelt and bowed to the emperor.

The Emperor rarely showed a smile, and told Prince Duan to get up quickly.

After these past few months, Lou Yunsheng's temperament has become more reserved. Although he has been traveling hard and covered in dust, it does not diminish his charisma.

Compared to him, the Third Prince, who was used to hiding himself in the shadows, was so pathetic.

The Third Prince also realized this, and his eyes grew increasingly sinister. He felt his jealousy was driving him mad, and he could hardly hide his expression anymore.

Lou Yunsheng first recounted his actions over this period of time.

This provides a general explanation of what happened in Valley Water City over the past two months.

Lou Yunsheng did not take all the credit for himself, and he said very modestly.

“Father, the successful victory over the plague this time is due to the efforts of all the people of Gushui City. It is the result of everyone’s cooperation. Your son dares not take credit for it.”

Upon hearing this, the emperor's smile deepened.

"Shaochang, you are being too modest."

It's rare for the emperor to address someone by their courtesy name in court, which shows how pleased he is.

However, someone soon dampened the emperor's good mood.

The person who broke it was none other than Prince Duan, Lou Yunsheng.

He bowed again and said, "Father, besides that, I have something else to report." The Emperor nodded, signaling Lou Yunsheng to continue.

“Father, before the plague broke out, I was assassinated in the suburbs.”

"What? Who dares to be so bold?" The Emperor frowned, his voice suddenly rising.

Lou Yunsheng did not answer, but continued: "Father, after the outbreak of the plague, I chose to stay in the city and also wrote letters to ask for help."

The emperor loved his people like his own children and cared for them, so he ordered supplies and herbs to be sent to Gushui City.

However, when I received the supplies, less than 20% of them were actually delivered. Most of them were already rotten and spoiled, unusable even by ordinary people, let alone the people of Gushui City, which was being ravaged by the plague.

Moreover, after Gushui City reopened, I was attacked several more times.

These include assassinations, poisoning, and so on.
They all want to put your son to death.

On one occasion, the villains even planned to poison all the wells in Valley Water City, completely disregarding the lives of the city's inhabitants—how utterly wicked their intentions were!

During the days they waited for the arrival of the imperial officials, Lou Yunsheng, Yu Muhuai, and others were very busy.

Because Yu Muhuai had said beforehand that since the Third Prince wanted Lou Yunsheng dead so badly, he probably wouldn't let him go so easily.

So during this period, everyone was on edge, worried that something unexpected might happen.

As expected, the first group of assassins quickly arrived in Valley Water City.

They were experienced and, upon arrival, immediately wanted to implement the most ruthless plan—poisoning the water source.

Fortunately, Yu Muhuai had such experience in his previous world, so he always sent people to guard the vicinity of various water sources, and promptly transmitted the news after discovering any unusual activity.

Subsequently, Yu Muhuai and Lou Yunsheng led a group of people to approach silently, where they collided head-on with the assassins and engaged in a fierce battle.

With Yu Muhuai as their powerful weapon, Lou Yunsheng and his group quickly killed all the assassins.

Their modus operandi is very similar to that of the previous group, and it's easy to guess that it was also orchestrated by the Third Prince.

Lou Yunsheng was naturally very angry.

But he didn't get much time to rest; then the assassins came in a second and third wave.
In the end, Lou Yunsheng became numb to killing.

He was extremely annoyed, but also somewhat admired Lou Yunxian's patience.

The official arrived two days late, and upon arrival explained the reason for his tardiness.

The horse pulling the carriage fell ill for no apparent reason, and the coachman suddenly developed diarrhea.
Lou Yunsheng's eye twitched.

It's obvious who did this!
However, Lou Yunsheng said nothing and remained inactive. After receiving the imperial edict, he returned to the capital with the officials the next day.

He didn't say it then, but he's planning to tell everything now.

After hearing everything, the emperor was extremely furious.

He indulged in pleasure for many years, but that doesn't mean he was a fool.

The former crown prince once held absolute power, which prevented the other princes from making any significant moves.

However, ever since the former crown prince was deposed, the princes with ulterior motives have begun to stir.

The emperor knew that his third son was no pushover, but he never expected him to be so vicious.

Lou Yunsheng did not give the Third Prince time to make excuses and directly presented all the evidence in the court.

This includes evidence of communications that Yu Muhuai had previously sent Qian Ran to Zhang Chengdong's residence to retrieve.

Zhang Chengdong's status meant he wasn't in direct contact with the Third Prince, but his contacts were members of the Third Prince's faction.
