While Shi Wanyue was free, he had to show her the results of his new learning.

The song sung by Wen Zhimiao is a touching story about a female Taoist priest and a little snake demon.

When Shi Wanyue heard her singing, she knew that she had probably read a new script again, and she didn't seem as busy as herself.

Otherwise, how can you read the storybook?

Although Wen Zhimiao's singing is not good, it is entertaining.

He always has some strange ideas that make Shi Wanyue laugh from time to time.

While the two were playing, suddenly a man rushed in covered in blood.

As soon as he came in, he put the sword across Shi Wanyue's neck.

Wen Zhimiao narrowed his eyes and looked at the other party. Shi Wanyue was calm and still sat there: "Since you came here to avoid being hunted down, it doesn't seem right to kill the host directly, right?"

The person was wearing an exquisite long skirt, but it was a little torn due to being chased and stained with blood, so she looked a little disheveled. She had a veil on her face, which made her look unbelievable.

Wen Zhimiao looked at the wounds on her body and sighed, "She's injured like this, it looks like the hatred is quite deep."

"Let her go, I will keep you safe." Wen Zhimiao said in a low voice.

The man still seemed a little unconvinced: "How can I trust you if you let her go?"

Wen Zhimiao narrowed his eyes again: "If you don't let her go, you don't have to believe me, I will kill you directly."

"I'll give you one more chance, let it go or not." The man hesitated.

Shi Wanyue had already moved, and Wen Zhimiao cooperated with her movements and kicked the person away.

Then he quickly pulled Shi Wanyue over.

"Kill him." Wen Zhimiao said lightly.

As soon as she finished speaking, several guards came in.

Wen Zhimiao felt extremely distressed when he saw a faint bloodstain on Shi Wanyue's neck.

"It's okay." Shi Wanyue said in a low voice.

Then he looked at the man and said, "There must be a lot of people who can come in. It's hard to say whether they are being hunted or not. Don't kill them."

Chu An was guarding outside the door. Besides, there were many guards inside and outside the courtyard. Wen Zhimiao would not joke with his own life, and he would not relax the guards even in the mansions outside the palace.

But this person was able to come in, which only shows that she has many accomplices and enemies, otherwise she would not have been able to avoid those guards.

"You still have one choice. Tell me your identity clearly and I won't kill you for the time being." Wen Zhimiao said coldly.

"I say." The man looked at the guards and knew that he, who was seriously injured at the moment, would not be able to win.

She pulled off the veil on her face and said, "I am supposed to be the Saint of Lu Jin. I was in such a hurry that I didn't recognize His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Master Ji. It's my fault."

The person who claimed to be a saint stood in front of Wen Zhimiao and calmly stated her identity.

Wen Zhimiao and Shi Wanyue looked at each other, and saw confusion in each other's eyes: "The Saintess of Beirong? As far as I know, the Saintess should be discussing Taoism with the abbot at Tianfo Temple right now."

But the man shook his head: "That's my twin sister."

"She replaced my identity as a saint, so she came to Tianqi in the name of discussing the Tao, but in fact she came to hunt me down." She was so badly injured that she even had difficulty speaking.

At this moment, Chu An also came in: "Your Highness, there are many assassins outside, but it seems that they are not coming for Your Highness. There are three groups of people in total, and the number of people is not small."

"Take her away and help her heal her wounds. Also, tell your people not to try to get in."

"Chu An ordered his men to shoot arrows directly. Anyone who tries to come in will be killed without mercy." Wen Zhimiao looked coldly at the person in front of her who claimed to be a saint.

After saying that, he still felt a little unsatisfied, so he took the knife from Chu An's hand and slashed the man's neck with an extremely fast knife. It wasn't fatal, but it hurt.

"Hurting her is not something that can be resolved with just an apology." Wen Zhimiao said again.

That person has been in Yunjing for some time and has heard a lot of rumors about the Crown Prince and Master Ji. In the past, she just regarded them as rumors and did not think much about them, but today she realized that they were not just rumors.

This little prince really cares about Shi Wanyue.

"I'm sorry," she said again.

Wen Zhimiao didn't believe that the other party didn't recognize her. Even if he didn't recognize her, he should not have been unaware that this was her house.

He is not alone, he has many followers. She doesn't believe that such a small thing cannot be found.

After the others were taken away, Chu An bowed again: "Your Highness, please forgive me."

"Is there an expert?" Wen Zhimiao had no doubt about Chu An.

"Yes."

"I'll tell you later. Let the imperial physician come in and treat my sister's wound." Wen Zhimiao felt very distressed when he looked at Shi Wanyue's injury.

Shi Wanyue looked at her worried expression and raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "It's really okay, she didn't get it, I can hide by myself."

It's not like she's really powerless. After all, she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. It's impossible for a person who is so badly injured to really kill her.

"That's also an injury." Wen Zhimiao muttered dissatisfiedly.

She couldn't bear to hurt anyone.

The imperial physician arrived quickly. When the guards came to call her, she thought it was a big deal, but when she saw Shi Wanyue's injuries.

Even if nothing is done, the wound will scab over on its own after tonight.

However, this process still needs to be dealt with.

After the doctor left, Shi Wanyue sat down again and said softly, "It's unlikely that he broke in accidentally."

"How could they find us accurately if they broke in accidentally?" Wen Zhimiao shook her head. She didn't believe anything like that.

Shi Wanyue nodded: "It seems that Lu Jin is also in a mess."

The same is true when the royal family fights for the throne and the divine authority is represented.

Wen Zhimiao suddenly said, "Why not just take Lu Jin down?"

"The Queen Mother had this idea before. They were not good people to begin with. From the previous dynasty to the previous dynasty and then to Tianqi, Lu Jin and its predecessors always acted like grandsons when they were weak, and once they became stronger, they started to bully the people of the Central Plains."

"Besides, I can't stand their theocracy."

Shi Wanyue thought about it and it was not impossible: "The Yan Dynasty had intermarried with Lu Jin many times, and King Lu Jin even recognized the Yan Emperor as his adoptive father at that time. But when the Yan Dynasty was in civil strife, they took the opportunity to seize the two richest counties in the west and directly moved the capital there."

"Later, taking advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains, Lu Jin seized the Yinluo Plain in the west. If it weren't for the Lian'an Mountains, there would be no barrier in the west of our dynasty now."

"So Your Majesty has actually had this thought, right?" Shi Wanyue asked.

"We did, but at that time, Tianqi was just established and there were too many messes. We couldn't send troops rashly. Now the Northern Rong have no time to take care of us. Hu Yan is still honest, and Donglan has settled down. We can fight if we want. If we take down Lujin, there will be no obstacles to our westward march."

To be honest, Wen Zhimiao was quite moved.

Shi Wanyue thought for a moment and said, "But the master is unknown."

Wen Zhimiao sneered: "You want a title? That's too many."

"The Nan Shao incident is the most recent cause. Going back a little further, when the Queen Mother first ascended the throne, how many evil things did Lu Jin do? If the Queen Mother hadn't prepared for a rainy day and knew that they wouldn't behave themselves, and hadn't arranged for a general to guard them early on, would they have been so obedient?"

"Let's not talk about that. Let's just say that Tianqi can't trade smoothly with the western countries. Lujin is the culprit. How much agency fees did it take in the middle? If it weren't for these agency fees, would Lujin have been able to live so well these years?"

"Besides, they are going to assassinate me tonight." Wen Zhimiao blinked at Shi Wanyue innocently.

Shi Wanyue chuckled: "Yes, it seems that Your Highness has already had an idea in mind?"

"No rush. I have to ask my mother. I also have to see if the court officials agree. Is there more people who oppose or agree? After all, Lu Jin is not Dong Lan."

Wen Zhimiao stroked his chin and began to think seriously.
