Chapter 133: A man's heart is like a needle in the sea (Part )

At this time, Su Liuyue also saw clearly the face of the man they were holding down. It was Cao Yan!

She frowned slightly, thinking of Zhou Yunke's whereabouts that had suddenly been exposed.

Zhou Yunke would never make such a low-level mistake. Could it be Cao Yan who exposed their whereabouts?
Soon, she knew the answer. Feng Yang walked up quickly and said in a cold voice, "Commander Cao, what on earth did you do just now to make them discover your whereabouts? Be honest and tell me everything!"

Cao Yan had a stern face and did not struggle. He pursed his lips and said, "I was really careless. I was in a hurry just now and I didn't notice that there was actually one of their people standing near that place..."

Feng Yang's voice suddenly became colder. "It's fine if you didn't notice there was someone there, but you didn't even notice that he was secretly following you? Is the commander of the guards around His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei so incompetent?!"

Cao Yan was thick-skinned. He lowered his eyelids and said, "It was indeed my negligence this time. I will apologize to His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei when I return."

This kind of shameless person is the most infuriating. You know that there is a high probability that he did it on purpose, but there is no evidence. No matter what you say or how you mock him, he remains calm.

Feng Yang got angry, which was rare. He gritted his teeth and said, "Your grandson..."

"That's all."

Zhou Yunke said calmly, his slightly cold eyes swept over Cao Yan, with a half-smile, "After all, he is my brother's man. No matter how badly he does, we should at least give my brother some face."

Feng Yang was startled, and quickly turned around and said: "Your Highness..."

Because of this grandson, three people from that gang finally ran away!
Including the bastard who injured His Highness!

Although it was just a small gang, His Majesty was very sensitive to the forces left over from the previous dynasty. That gang had previously succeeded in causing trouble and burned Xiao Chengbang's entire family to death. His Majesty ordered that the gang must be arrested immediately to serve as a warning to other forces that were ready to make a move and give up.

Now that the operation has gone wrong and not all the people have been caught, it will be difficult to deal with the emperor, and there is also the fear of hidden dangers.

Zhou Yunke raised his lips slightly and continued, "Drag him away, give him fifty military strokes, and then send him back to my brother."

The caning in the army is different from the caning in other places. Many soldiers may not be able to endure fifty canes.

But Cao Yan remained calm, pursed his lips and said, "Yes, I am willing to be punished."

Looking at his dead look, Feng Yang just wanted to kick him.

When the King of Wei sent him here, he knew that this guy had no good intentions.

The soldier who was escorting Cao Yan responded and took him away to receive punishment.

Before leaving, Cao Yan glanced at Su Liuyue from the corner of his eye.

When he came over just now, he heard some soldiers discussing in a low voice, saying that His Highness was willing to let Su Xiaolangjun help him apply medicine and was also willing to let Su Xiaolangjun hold his arm!
That scene is so ambiguous!

At this moment, looking at Su Liuyue not far away, a strange light flashed across his eyes.

This guy actually carries medicine with him.

Not only does he look effeminate, but even his habits are effeminate.

After Cao Yan was taken away, Feng Yang couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, His Highness the Prince of Wei deliberately sent Cao Yan here to cause trouble. Who knows, the person behind this reactionary gang might be His Highness the Prince of Wei..."

"That's not the case."

Zhou Yunke said calmly: "Xiao Chengbang has indeed followed my brother for more than ten years. My brother has always trusted and relied on him. Even if my brother wanted to set up a trap, there is no need to drag Xiao Chengbang's family into it. Moreover, my brother did not need to form such a low-level gang."

Feng Yang frowned, "So he is here just to cause trouble? Your Highness is so concerned about this matter, isn't it because Xiao Chengbang's family died! In my opinion, His Highness the Prince of Wei doesn't care as much about Xiao Chengbang's family as Your Highness."

Jingzhao Prefecture has solved many strange cases recently. His Highness has also uncovered several forces left over from the previous dynasty and raided their lairs. All the ministers who had been pessimistic about His Highness before have gradually changed their views on him.

However, no one expected that the King of Wei would be so panic-stricken that he didn't even catch the murderer who burned Xiao Chengbang's family to death, and was only interested in causing trouble for their Highness!
Zhou Yunke only curled his lips indifferently. Their family had always been weak in family affection, and since they were associated with that position, the situation inside had become even more bloody.

Not to mention Xiao Chengbang, his good brother the Emperor would sacrifice anything as long as he could be pulled down from the position of Crown Prince.

Su Liuyue, who had been silent, saw that the matter was over and said, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

When she was talking to Zhou Yunke just now, Lu Ke and his men had already arrived. After taking over the murderer, they waited by the side.

Su Liuyue came here with them, so she should go back with them as well.

Zhou Yunke seemed to be slightly stunned, turned his head to look at Su Liuyue, and almost subconsciously blurted out, "I'll take you back."

After a pause, he raised his uninjured left hand and touched the corner of his mouth as if inadvertently, and said in a voice as calm as possible: "The route they took was to take the murderer back to Jingzhao Prefecture, and they will separate from you after entering the city.

It's getting late now, and it's probably not safe for you to go back alone."

Su Liuyue didn't care. She just wanted to go home as soon as possible. After thinking for a while, she said, "Is it convenient for Your Highness to send me back? Otherwise, Your Highness can just send someone..."

Zhou Yunke interrupted her calmly, "It's on the way."

After saying that, without looking at Su Liuyue again, he turned around and told Feng Yang, "Go and ask someone to pull the carriage over."

Su Liuyue had never been to Zhou Yunke's mansion, so she didn't know that what he meant by "conveniently located" basically skipped half of the outer city.

Feng Yang glanced at Su Liuyue stealthily, then at his own prince. The slight irritation in his heart caused by Cao Yan instantly disappeared. After responding, he went to do his work quickly.

Su Liuyue ran over and explained the situation to Lu and them, then got on the carriage she had come from.

We just captured a reactionary gang. Although three of them escaped, their leader was fortunately caught.

After Zhou Yunke explained things to his men, he walked to the black horse next to Su Liuyue's carriage and climbed on it nimbly.

The group began to move forward slowly. Su Liuyue pulled open the curtain of the carriage and looked up at the man on the horse.

Although Zhou Yunke had a very good face, he still gave people a rather cold feeling. At this moment, he was looking straight ahead, without a trace of smile on his face, his thin lips slightly pursed. Under the reflection of the cold moonlight, he gave people a feeling of being kept a thousand miles away.

As if sensing Su Liuyue's little movement, Zhou Yunke turned his head slightly, raised his eyebrows, and his phoenix eyes seemed to be asking her. Although he didn't say anything, the coldness of a thousand miles of ice on his body suddenly faded a lot.

Su Liuyue also raised her eyebrows slightly. Although he was riding his horse diagonally in front of her, he still immediately noticed that she was looking at him.

Fortunately, this perceptive person was her companion, not her enemy.

Facing Zhou Yunke's gaze, Su Liuyue said, "I think your highness is right. If my third cousin can't even overcome this difficulty, it will be difficult for him to adapt to the treacherous officialdom in the future. I decided to go to his academy tomorrow and tell him about Bai He."

Zhou Yunke was slightly stunned, thinking of his words that seemed too harsh and inhumane, and he could not help but be silent for a moment, and said: "Just now... what I said was too harsh. Your third cousin is just a scholar after all. He has not experienced the polishing of officialdom. It is difficult for his mentality to be as stable and mature as those officials in the court. I shouldn't ask your third cousin the same requirements as other officials.

The imperial examination ultimately determines whether he can enter officialdom. If he fails this time, he will have to wait at least another year. Your concerns are not wrong.

You can think carefully about when to tell him about this."

After a pause, he added, "Among all the scholars, your cousin is considered to be stable and mature. Last time he came to my house for a banquet, even Mr. Rong praised him. It's not that I don't believe that he can't overcome the impact of Bai He's accident, but I think there is no need to disturb him with this matter before the examination."

Su Liuyue couldn't help but look at him in surprise.

How come this guy's mind changed completely in just a short while?

And he became so...reasonable...

She looked at him inquiringly for a while, then suddenly curled her lips and said seriously, "Your Highness, I think it must be a very lucky thing to be your relative."
