Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Lao Zhan thought it was Yu Le who came out, so he quickly looked up towards the yacht deck.

As a result, Yu Le did come out, but there were seventeen other people, men and women, following him.

Seeing this scene, Lao Zhan and the other Jinyiwei were all stunned, not understanding what was going on.

But they soon came to their senses, and their first action was to bend down and kneel on one knee to salute.

"I, Zhan You, a captain of the Imperial Guard, come to see Princess Weiyang. May Your Highness be blessed with good health!"

As Zhan You kowtowed and bowed, the other Jinyiwei finally remembered that there was not only Marquis Changle on the boat, but also Princess Weiyang.

After realizing what was happening, the Jinyiwei did not dare to hesitate and saluted Zhu Yuxuan in unison.

Not until Zhu Yuxuan responded did Zhan You and the others dare to stand up again, and then all the Jinyiwei looked at Yu Le.

Seeing this, Yu Le first bowed to Zhu Yuxuan, then walked quickly to Zhan You with a wry smile on his face.

Seeing that Yu Le's expression was a little strange, Zhan You quickly asked in a low voice.

"Old Yu, what's going on now? What did you say to Marquis Changle?"

What Zhan You couldn't understand was why Marquis Changle didn't show up, but instead the princess and these maids and guards came out.

Just when he was confused, Yu Le gave the answer.

"Old Zhan, I may have to take my people back to the capital first. The affairs in Tongzhou can only be left to you to handle."

"Ah? What do you mean, you don't want to live anymore?"

Zhan You looked at Lao Yu in confusion, not understanding what was wrong with him.

You must know that keeping an eye on Marquis Changle is the order of His Majesty, and what Yu Le said means, to put it in a broader sense, that he is disobeying the order.

Yu Le also understood that Zhan You had misunderstood, so he quickly explained:

"Originally, I wanted to ask Lord Changle Hou to be magnanimous and not embarrass us little people, but I didn't even have the chance to speak."

"I stood on the boat for nearly a quarter of an hour, but the Marquis didn't even look at me, and I didn't dare to speak casually."

"I finally waited for the Marquis to speak, but in the end he only gave me a task, asking me to escort the princess back to the capital safely."

After listening to Yu Le's explanation, Zhan You finally understood why he had to take people back to the capital first. It turned out that it was to escort the princess.

Speaking of which, in addition to bringing Wei Wu back to the capital, protecting the safety of the princess and her husband is also of paramount importance.

Since Wei Wu ordered Yu Le to escort the princess, Yu Le had no choice but to take people to escort the princess back to the capital.

But since the princess has already disembarked, why didn’t we see Marquis Changle coming down?

Thinking of this, Zhan You looked towards the yacht again, and then asked in a low voice.

"Since the princess is going back to the capital, what about the Marquis of Changle? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

Hearing this, Yu Le shook his head helplessly.

"I don't know. The Marquis only told me to send the princess back to the capital. He didn't say anything else, and I didn't dare to ask more."

After listening to Yu Le's explanation, Zhan You felt helpless, but he also understood Yu Le's difficulties.

Lower-ranking people like them often find themselves in helpless situations when facing higher-ranking people.

However, seeing Shen Lin and the others also disembarking, Zhan You lowered his voice again and asked in a low voice that only the two of them could hear:

"What about Shen Lin and the others? Are they also accompanying you to escort the princess back to the capital?"

Hearing this, Yu Le sighed lightly, then shook his head slightly in response.

"The Marquis didn't mention this, and I don't know why they followed him off the ship."

After Yu Le finished speaking, Zhan You immediately frowned. His intuition told him that Shen Lin and the others must have a purpose for getting off the boat.

And it is highly likely that he is not escorting the princess back to Beijing, but the problem is that Shen Lin and the others are not within his scope of responsibility.

The order he received was to bring Wei Wu back to the capital, and even if it was impossible to do so, he had to stop Wei Wu from going to the Japanese pirates.

No matter what Shen Lin and the others want to do, as long as they don't attack the Jinyiwei, he cannot take the initiative to provoke a dispute.

Even if Shen Lin and the others really had some purpose, the only thing he could do was watch them leave.

And the most crucial point is that Shen Lin and the others' current actions can be said to be a tacit agreement to escort the princess back to Beijing.

So even though he knew that there was something wrong with them, he couldn't stop them. Otherwise, if the princess asked him to, he would have to hold his nose and let them go.

At this moment, Zhan You roared madly in his heart: Why is it so difficult for me? !

After finishing his inner roar, Zhan You sighed again and looked at Yu Le.

"In that case, take your men and escort the princess back to the capital! Remember, protect the princess and don't be careless!"

"Also, if Shen Lin and the others leave midway, please send someone back to inform me so I can take precautions in advance."

Looking at Zhan You's face full of complicated emotions, Le Yu reached out and patted his shoulder and said:

"Don't worry! I know what to do. But you might be in trouble."

Hearing this, Zhan You shrugged his shoulders and said:

"It's troublesome, so be it! You should do your job, shoulder your responsibilities, and do your best."

Seeing this, Yu Le didn't say anything more and turned around to gather his men.

About ten minutes later, Yu Le, his men, and Shen Lin escorted Zhu Yuxuan away from the dock.

After Yu Le left, Zhan You asked the Jinyiwei around him to withdraw and continued to stand guard by the yacht alone.

Zhan You was still wondering about the purpose of Shen Lin and the others' departure, when he suddenly heard footsteps on the deck.

Looking up, I saw Wei Wu walking briskly to the stern, holding a set of tea set in his hand.

Before Zhan You could figure out what was going on, he saw Wei Wu had already sat down and was looking towards him.

Seeing this, Zhan You bowed to Wei Wu politely.

"Master Hou!"

"Ok!"

Wei Wu nodded and responded softly, then continued:

"I will definitely go to the Japanese pirates. Even the gods can't stop me, let alone you guys."

"You are unlucky enough to be assigned to my side on this mission, and in the end you can only fail and return to the capital to accept punishment."

"I don't like to implicate others, and I understand your difficulties. Here, take this letter back, and I'll keep you safe!"

As he spoke, Wei Wu casually threw a letter, and it spun and fell into Zhan You's hands.
