After all, he was the one who was afraid of death. Just as he let go of the sword, Yuan Ming stabbed him in the back.

Xie Chengzhang suddenly thought that Xie Chibei, who depended on Mu Jinan for his life, did not show up. He sent two hidden assassins, but only Yang Yujie shot the arrows today. The other one might have betrayed him. Did he say something to Xie Chibei?

He couldn't kill Mu Jinan without any preparation, as that would only bring endless worries. Xie Chibei was very skilled and treated Mu Jinan as his own child, so he would definitely make sure that his body was not intact.

This thunderstorm made all emotions rise high, the siege of the people made him lose his mind, and Jinghong's knife put him at a disadvantage.

Xie Chengzhang covered his back wound while looking at Mu Jinan who was also covering his neck wound. Mu Jinan was a skilled martial artist, so why did he deliberately let him hold him hostage? The people only saw that he wanted to kill Mu Jinan, and they were all witnesses.

This rebellious traitor who doesn't care about his own life is so difficult to deal with!

When he raised his eyes, he saw armored soldiers rushing towards him from afar. He could never defeat so many soldiers alone. He lost the first round and was completely pinned down by these people.

Xie Chengzhang truly felt that Mu Jinan was not putting on an act. She just wanted to drag him down with her to give Xie Chibei a reason to rebel and give the people of Youzhou a clean place to live.

Xie Chengzhang's brain was working rapidly: "With troops in hand, why would you want to die?"

Alinchu supported Mu Jinan. She was afraid that Xie Chibei would blame her, but she couldn't stop Mu Jinan. Mu Jinan asked her to stop the arrow, but didn't tell her that they had to die together, otherwise she would definitely not agree.

She used to be a slave, and now she has achieved some success and has money to spend. She lives and eats with Mu Jinan, and is about to live a rich life. She has to live hard to enjoy these happiness and make up for the miserable days of displacement and servitude in the past.

Mu Jinan, who has become a prince, is a million times better than her. How can she give up such a bright future so easily? Why does she want to give up her life when she hasn't even taken the throne yet?

Are the strangers really that important to Mu Jinan? She would rather her master be a little selfish so that she would not be hurt every time she is in danger.

Nangong Yu lowered his head and looked at Mu Jinan. He carried some medicine with him, which he used to stop the bleeding and bandage her. His fingers were trembling constantly. If she was cut a little more, she would definitely die.

He cursed bitterly: "Do you think that you don't have to listen to me because you are a prince? Do you think that you don't have to care about your living relatives because you are responsible for the people's livelihood? Apart from Xie Chibei, I am the one who treats you best. Will I be sad if you don't care about me at all when you die? You really..."

"You don't want to tell me anything. You treat me as an outsider."

"If you don't care about me, please take care of yourself."

He talked a lot while gritting his teeth, and his teeth seemed to make a sound when they collided.

Mu Jinan looked at his sad look, and now he didn't want to kill her? Everyone has eighty faces, she no longer believed in Nangong Yu!

When Alinchu saw that Nangong Yu had bandaged his wound, she wanted to reach out and hug Mu Jinan.

Mu Jinan immediately hid to the side, not wanting to create confusion or trouble for her.

A Linchu pulled Nangong Yu away, pointed at Nangong Yu's heart and cursed: "Our prince is not here, you should behave yourself and don't touch me."

Nangong Yu looked at A Linchu coldly, and looking around, he whispered: "You know my cousin's plan, and you dare to hide it. Wait for Xie Chibei to come back and deal with you!"

Alinchu's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Xie Chibei asked her to protect Mu Jinan well. Now that Mu Jinan was injured, she would be considered to have failed in her duty. She had worked so hard to become a female official from a slave, and now was she going to be driven out of Youzhou?

Mu Jinan glanced at Nangong Yu. Why would she scare a woman who was as pitiful as she was? This was her own decision: "If anyone dares to tell the King of Jin about my injury, I will pull out his tongue!"

Nangong Yu's face turned dark. Mu Jinan no longer considered him his cousin and even pulled out his tongue, not showing him any mercy in front of so many people. It was all Xie Chibei's fault.

When everyone heard this, Alinchu finally felt relieved. She stuck out her tongue at Nangong Yu, meaning that my master favors me!

Alinchu doesn't compete with any other woman for men. She only wants to compete with others for Mu Jinan. Mu Jinan can see through her embarrassment of chewing oranges with the skin, and gives her the best dresses.

The noble princesses and princes would not despise her. Mu Jinan also made her a centurion and a female official in Youzhou. Her exotic face did not make the people of Youzhou dislike her. This was the ideal path that Mu Jinan had paved for her with his life and military power.

Alinchu wants to follow this slightly changed path of a court lady, and continue to walk firmly on it, writing her own legendary story.

She smiled and said, "Your Highness, when I retire, I will stay by your side."

Mu Jinan forced a smile on her face. How could she live to old age? She didn't want to spoil other people's fun: "Okay!"

Nangong Yu glared at A Linchu unhappily. He looked at her bloody hands and handed her a handkerchief: "My cousin is getting married, do you want to follow her?"

"What's wrong with me following you? I'm not following you, nor the King of Jin." Alinchu pushed him away in disdain, "I don't need your handkerchief!"

Nangong Yu saw that she didn't know how to appreciate his kindness, so he threw her to the ground.

The people on the street gradually dispersed. Yuan Ming had already arranged for the storytellers to get busy. The lyrics for the songs to be played and sung in the brothel were ready, exaggerating today's events.

Someone deliberately rushed the news back to Hu Yulou and other teahouses in Sheng'an City. The top performers and guests had different opinions. On the one hand, they praised Mu Jinan as a hero, and on the other hand, they accused Prince Xiang of assassinating Mu Jinan without recognizing his relatives.

What's strange is that another wave of news that Mu Jin'an was trying to cover up his plan to assassinate Prince Xiang did not catch up with the heated discussion, nor did it overshadow the power of the people. After all, Emperor Hui asked Zhou Sili to levy taxes, which angered many teahouse merchants in Sheng'an. They only told stories about what Yuan Ming had arranged!

When the news reached Zuixian Hall in Ziming Palace, Lai Yaer and Xianli were serving Emperor Hui a meal. After Zhang Zhao reported the matter, he also presented a memorial.

After reading the memorial, Emperor Hui's face turned pale: "Yuan Qinghe is in Youzhou? Xie Chengzhang tried to assassinate Mu Jinan and was seriously injured? Was it Yuan Ming who hurt him? Mu Jinan was also injured? Xie Chengzhang is temporarily unable to serve as the governor. Can I send someone else?"

Emperor Hui threw a bowl of soup while speaking, and the palace maids and eunuchs all knelt down in unison. He waved his hand and said, "Get out!"

Only the concubine, Zhang Zhao, and the leader of the Yangzhao Guard, Yu Zitu, were left in the palace. Zhang Zhao patted Emperor Hui on the chest to calm him down: "Your Majesty, can you believe this?"

Emperor Hui didn't believe it at all. He knew that Mu Jinan was very cunning and clever. "Mu Jinan must have assassinated Xie Chengzhang and turned the tables on him. The people of Youzhou only trust her. She has completely established a foothold in Youzhou. Now that there is an assassination attempt, who would be willing to go to Youzhou?"
