Reborn to marry, the short-lived prince lived a hundred years

"Just tell me what you are doing. You are dithering like a woman." The adjutant was furious when he saw Wei Li's hesitation. If the timing was not wrong, he would have wanted to grab Wei Li's neck and fight to get to the bottom of things.

Wei Li pursed his lips and said, "The prince and princess are here alone to cultivate their relationship. Let's go over there."

"Cultivate feelings? Cultivate feelings here? How to cultivate feelings?" The adjutant frowned, unable to think of anything and wanted to ask Wei Li again.

"Jiang Meng."

Shen Yunheng's voice sounded behind him. The adjutant trembled suddenly and turned around to see the person standing behind him like a ghost.

The adjutant's body trembled, and he was about to explain, but Shen Yunheng glared at him nonchalantly, and he fell silent instantly.

Shen Yunheng bent his knees and squatted, his eyes passing over the tree in front of him and looking at the brightly lit village in the distance.

Shen Yunheng pointed to the empty space beside him and said, "Lie down."

Shen Yunheng has already fallen down.

Only then did Meng Tingyue understand why the prince said that when he came and asked her to change her clothes.

It turns out they came here to ambush and feed the mosquitoes.

Meng Tingyue lay on the ground with her brows furrowed. The clothes she wore today were soft, and the grass on the grass was hard, which made her feel itchy.

Maybe because there was someone next to me, I didn't feel that cold.

Meng Tingyue grabbed a handkerchief and waved it around to drive away mosquitoes.

After rushing for a while, my hands felt sore.

She couldn't help but glance sideways at Shen Yunheng, who was standing beside her as steady as a rock.

The cool moonlight softened the cold and tough lines of the side face.

Shen Yunheng seemed to be listening carefully to Wei Li's report.

Meng Tingyue listened attentively for a while, but could only vaguely hear fragments of their conversation, such as "the investigation has been completed" and "the information has been released."

Every time I tried to eavesdrop a little longer, I would be interrupted by the buzzing mosquitoes.

Meng Tingyue complained in a low voice, "You stinky mosquito, why are you biting me alone? Isn't there a living person next to me?"

Shen Yunheng glanced at Meng Tingyue and saw that she was covering her face with a handkerchief, her head shaking and muttering non-stop.

"Don't bite me, don't bite me. My blood smells bad, but his blood smells good..."

Swah——

Meng Tingyue's head shook, and her nose rushed to take in the faint and unique fragrance.

"Hmm, something."

She pulled off the clothes that were covering her head. In the dim darkness, she couldn't see what was in her hand, and could only tell that it was Shen Yunheng's clothes by the smell on the fabric.

She couldn't see Shen Yunheng's expression, and her soft questioning didn't get any response from Shen Yunheng.

Mosquitoes kept buzzing around her ears, so she simply covered her head with clothes to block out the mosquitoes.

The time spent squatting was boring. In order to avoid being disturbed by mosquitoes, Meng Tingyue simply covered herself with Shen Yunheng's clothes. Her breath was filled with the unique fragrance of dragon scales on Shen Yunheng's body, and her ears were surprisingly quiet.

"Your Highness, you don't have to come in person." Wei Li swatted a mosquito that flew in front of him and said seriously, "These are just insignificant rabble. Why should Your Highness take the risk in person? We can handle them."

The surroundings were swallowed by ink-like darkness. Wei Li could not see Shen Yunheng's expression, but he could hear a low voice floating in the evening breeze.

"It doesn't matter."

Shen Yunheng's answer was concise and to the point, so Wei Li didn't dare to ask more questions and instead changed the subject.

"Your Highness, the lights in the houses in the village have been extinguished. Everything is ready, awaiting your orders."

Before Shen Yunheng arrived, everyone obeyed the orders of Wei Li and the adjutant. As soon as Shen Yunheng appeared, everyone followed his lead.

Shen Yunheng's sharp eyes shuttled through the night, scanning everything around him.

The lights in the village ahead gradually went out and were slowly swallowed by the darkness. The moonlight seemed to sense the coming storm and quietly disappeared into the clouds.

It was pitch black all around, and one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. Shen Yunheng's mind was as clear as a mirror. He knew that the soldiers lying in ambush around him were like arrows on a bow, and they would attack swiftly at his command.

The person beside me seemed to blend into the night, without any movement, as if he had fallen asleep.

"Stay vigilant and don't let your guard down."

"As you command," Wei Li replied softly, and then his figure disappeared into the darkness. The soft and shallow instructions mixed with the light footsteps gradually faded away until they completely disappeared into the night.

Shen Yunheng lay on the ground, the sound of footsteps gradually fading away echoing in his ears, and his alertness remained undiminished.

The clouds above his head were still thick, and the surroundings were pitch black. They were just a group of bandits, no match for the cunning enemies on the battlefield, but he still did not dare to let his guard down.

This group of bandits appeared out of nowhere around the capital. Their life stories were a mystery and their origins were unknown. They quietly infiltrated this small village and used innocent people as shields. They had sinister intentions and were definitely not ordinary people.

If they had used the people as a shield, they would have been annihilated by the court long ago, and there would have been no need for such careful planning.

There was silence all around, and Wei Li also led his men into the village.

The courtyard layout of this village is deeply engraved in everyone's mind.

As soon as he entered the village, Wei Li raised his hand and ordered his soldiers to disperse in several groups.

Through their observations during this period, they have determined the specific location of the criminals, and they just need to rush in and take them hostage.

This matter itself was not difficult, and the plan was well-planned. Wei Li did not expect Shen Yunheng to come and supervise it in person, and he wanted to do it more and more perfectly.

All the people were fast asleep, so Wei Li and the soldiers moved very quietly before opening the door and entering the house.

His eyes swept across the bed, and he suddenly felt something was wrong. He raised his knife and turned around to fight back.

Fires were burning in the village, and the bright moon also emerged from the thick clouds at this time, casting moonlight, and the surrounding scenery was visible at a glance.

When Shen Yunheng saw her, his eyes became deep.

These bandits didn't have any Chinese medicine to make them unconscious.

He stood up, his aura condensing, "Jiang Meng."

The adjutant stepped forward upon hearing this.

"I will bring people to support you right away."

"Try not to hurt the civilians." Shen Yunheng's voice was deep.

"Yes."

The adjutant took the remaining men to rush to support.

Meng Tingyue lifted up her clothes and sat on the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner, her breathing was unstable and her cheeks were red and hot from being stuffy.

She wrapped her clothes around herself, stood up and walked to Shen Yunheng's side. Then, in the moonlight, she vaguely saw the flashes of swords and sabers in the village, mixed with the exclamations of the people and Wei Li's orderly commands.

Meng Tingyue turned around and looked behind her. Ling Xiao and several soldiers were protecting several doctors carrying medicine boxes.

"Crown Prince...Brother Crown Prince, the medicine you gave me didn't work?"

Shen Yunheng glanced at her and said, "You have quite sharp ears."

Meng Tingyue smiled, "That's right. But, Prince, are you sure you've found all the bandits in the village and made sure none of them are left out?"

Shen Yunheng frowned slightly, staring at Meng Tingyue closely, his eyes cold, "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Meng Tingyue seemed a little cold, shrinking her neck, but she was not afraid of Shen Yunheng's intimidating gaze at all. "If it were an ordinary gangster, His Royal Highness would definitely not resort to such a mean trick as drugging him."

"If I'm not mistaken, the bandits have a close relationship with the people in the village. The soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty have always been loyal to their country and love their people. They would certainly not easily harm the people. The bandits just took advantage of this."

"Your Highness chose to wait for this dark and windy night and resort to the despicable method of drugging people because he didn't want to harm them. But perhaps Your Highness can understand people's hearts. Is Your Highness truly sure that all the villagers are innocent?"
