After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

The original color of Chu Xi's clothes had long been unrecognizable. The robe had been stained bright red with blood, and there were a few drops of bright red blood in the corners of her eyes, but she was unaware of it.

Tang Yuhuai came over with a half-smile, "Wang Lang is coming at the right time."

Wang Langjiang reacted quickly and saluted Tang Yuhuai, "I greet Zhonglangjiang."

"This is the eldest son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, Chu Jiang, and over there is the old marquis." Tang Yuhuai was in no hurry to settle the accounts, as he still had to make the most basic introduction.

General Wang Lang quickly bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings to the old marquis, and to the prince."

Chu Xi slowly applied medicine on his wound, operating the left side with one hand. It was still okay with his right hand, but the wound from his shoulder to his back was not so easy to operate.

"I'll do it." Jiang Zhenyao was about to speak.

Chu Xi took a step forward and threw the medicine in his hand to Tang Yuhuai, "Come and help me apply the medicine."

Tang Yuhuai glanced at Jiang Zhenyao who was interrupted before she could finish her words, took the medicine with an innocent look on his face, and obediently came over to apply the medicine to Chu Xi.

Normally in front of Chu Xi, he acted like a young and carefree boy, but when facing the late-coming General Wang Lang, he actually had some of the demeanor of a young general.

"Sir Wang, you are the one leading the patrol tonight. Let me ask you, why is there so much noise coming from Wutong Lane? You didn't hear anything? Did you all neglect your duties and sleep in?"

When Tang Yuhuai said this, he was very gentle as he sprinkled the medicine on Chu Xi, and there was no trace of harshness or questioning in his tone.

"I dare not. I was patrolling in the north city and found the traces of assassins over there. We followed them all the way until they disappeared. We returned the same way and saw the unusual movement here."

General Wang Lang led a group of people to kneel on one knee. This orderly movement was worthy of being the most elite army in the capital.

Wang Langjiang's explanation was echoed by the Jinwu Guards behind him. Judging from their situations...

Tang Yuhuai found that what he said might be true. Since it was all about a show, the people behind the scenes would make arrangements properly and would not leave such a big handle here.

"What about the assassins? Don't tell me they all escaped and not a single one was caught?" Tang Yuhuai actually no longer needed General Wang Lang's answer. He just needed an excuse to temporarily detain General Wang Lang so that he could not inform anyone.

This move by Wang Langjiang is an important one. He must not appear when he should not, and he must "clear the field". When he should appear, he must be more timely than anyone else.

If Tang Yuhuai hadn't brought the old marquis with him, I'm afraid he would have waited until Qi Bai was caught or killed... and then spread the news to other people by coincidence.

But once the mission fails, it can also ensure that his presence is not inconsistent and he can quickly inform others.

"It was due to my incompetence. I caught a few people, but they... committed suicide." General Wang Lang explained with his head down in shame.

Tang Yuhuai chuckled. This was really... one thing after another. Was it because he had not been exposed to the central issues of the fight for the throne before, or did he underestimate those princes?

He is as meticulous as His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, but it's a pity that he spends all his energy on such shady things.

"You... are indeed incompetent." Tang Yuhuai's eyes were cold. He didn't care whether others wanted to join the team or not. It was their freedom, it was just that their concepts were different.

But he didn't like people who used such means, especially those who attacked Bai.

General Wang Lang seemed to feel ashamed of what Tang Yuhuai said, and he lowered his head and remained silent.

The old marquis came over. This deep and wise old general stared sharply at General Wang Lang who was still kneeling on the ground.

"I haven't been out for many years. I didn't expect to see such a scene when I came out. Is the security in the capital so bad now?"

Every word the old marquis spoke revealed his complexity. He seemed to be smiling, but every word he said was setting a trap for General Wang Lang.

"Now that envoys from various countries have entered the capital, more princes will come to the capital one after another. If the security in the capital is still so loose, I am afraid that there will be more trouble. By then, it will not be the face of your Jinwu Guards that will be lost, but the face of the Great Zhou."

The fighting between princes and allowing other countries to interfere, isn't this the biggest joke?

He seemed to have said nothing, but also seemed to have said everything.

General Wang Lang said nothing, he lowered his head, and no one could see his expression at this moment.

The old marquis turned around and said, "Qibai, come back with me."

Chu Xi was startled. The wounds on his body had already been treated with medicine. After the hemostatic medicine was sprinkled on them, the wounds immediately felt hot. "Grandfather, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is still in the Dali Temple. I want to pick him up..."

"The city is already in such a mess tonight. If there are still assassins sneaking in, I am afraid that in the future, the assassins will be able to sneak into the mansions of court officials at will and kill people without being seen. I hope that I, an old man, will not wake up to see an assassin sitting at the head of my bed in the future."

The old marquis said this to the Jinwu guards behind him. Even if General Wang Lang had many ideas, he didn't dare to act rashly.

Your Majesty does not like Prince Yan, but the Xiao family of Jinling is behind Prince Yan. It is such an obvious assassination target that even if he wants to get away with it, some people will not agree.

Just a few words put Wang Langjiang on the fire, "..." Any one of the charges was enough to cost him his head.

"I believe that after what happened tonight, the Jinwu Guards will patrol well. I'll trouble Lord Tang to escort His Highness personally." The old marquis solved the matter in just a few words.

"This is my job, thank you for being so polite, old marquis." Tang Yuhuai bowed and performed the proper etiquette as a junior.

Chu Xi realized that his grandfather might have other plans, so he didn't force it anymore. He just turned to Tang Yuhuai and said, "I'm sorry to bother you with His Highness."

"No trouble." Tang Yuhuai felt much more comfortable talking to Chu Xi, relaxed and without pressure.

"Ah."

Zhongyong Hou Mansion.

Yun and Chu Wenbai were waiting anxiously at the gate of the mansion. All the people who were captured had been tied up in the backyard and were being guarded by special people.

Such a loud noise would naturally alarm the three cousins ​​living in the Marquis' Mansion. Sun Yurui heard the sounds of many people running around. Although it was not in their yard, the Marquis' Mansion was always quiet.

The slightest movement becomes particularly obvious.

"Mammy, what's going on outside?" Sisters Yun Qingyin and Sun Yurui lived in the same yard, but in different rooms.

After arriving in Beijing, Yun specially called in famous doctors and imperial physicians to treat her. After a period of time, her health actually improved.

Now that my health has improved, I no longer sleep as much as before and feel groggy.

Nanny Jiang pushed the door open, came in, and whispered, "Miss, don't worry. I asked the guards, and they said that the old marquis had gone out for something, and they just called a few people. It's okay."

"Did something happen in the mansion?" Yun Qingyin was sharp-minded and intelligent. Just from the noise outside, she could tell that things were not simple.
