Chapter 512: Counterattack

Soon, the sound of Shen Ningning's secret guard knocking on the door came from outside.

"Princess, everyone has been dealt with, leaving two alive."

Shen Ningning immediately opened the door and ordered seriously: "Send them to the Dali Temple and let the second brother interrogate them."

Then, the girl looked back: "I'll take you back to Mr. Xiumu first."

Takuye came back to his senses from the huge suspicion: "No! I can't go back."

Shen Ningning was stunned: "What do you mean, is it Mr. Xiumu who sent these assassins to assassinate you?"

Takuye pursed his pale lips, the wound was bleeding, and a thin layer of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

He had completely believed that Xiumu wanted to take his life in the chaos.

However, Tuoye didn't expect what was the reason for Xiumu to do this?

Before leaving Changliu Kingdom, King Da Ri called Xiumu over and told him to take good care of himself.

Takuye felt that the poison had taken effect, and his eyes were dark.

Before he fell unconscious, he grabbed Shen Ningning's skirt: "Please...save me..."

I don't know how long it took.

When Tuoye woke up again, the moonlight outside the window was already blue.

He looked around the house, neatly furnished, and a small house with everything, lit with a bright soybean oil lamp.

With a "creak", someone pushed the door in.

He immediately looked over vigilantly.

Seeing that it was Shen Ningning who came in with a bowl of medicine, Tuoye relaxed.

"Where is this?"

"My home." Shen Ningning said in a clear voice: "My home in Langshan, it's very safe here, and those assassins dare not come here, so you can rest assured to recover from your injuries."

She handed the medicine bowl over, and when Tuoye reached out to take it, he felt a tearing pain.

But in front of Shen Ningning, he didn't want to appear too weak.

So he pretended to be calm, took the medicine and drank it all.

Shen Ningning dragged a stool and sat beside the bed: "Can you tell me now? You are Xiumu's guard, why did he send someone to assassinate you?"

Takuye glanced at her with his deep tiger eyes.

A long silence filled the two of them.

Shen Ningning stood up decisively and said coldly: "If you don't want to say it, I don't want to care about what happened between you."

"You are his guard, but he sent someone to kill you. You must have stolen some important information or made a big mistake. In this case, I can't care about your life or death. I have to send you back to Mr. Xiumu."

After that, the girl blew the whistle with her fingertips.

The wolves filed in from outside, bit Tuoye's clothes, and dragged him out.

Takuye's wound was pulled, and he could no longer hide it. He grimaced in pain.

"I said! I didn't steal anything, nor am I Xiumu's guard. I am the third prince of Changliu, Ming Tuoye!"

The surname Ming is indeed the royal surname of Changliu.

Shen Ningning smiled after hearing this: "Liar, you are really good at making up stories. Langlang, drag him out and throw him away. I don't want to get involved in the trouble of Changliu Kingdom."

Tuoye was anxious and quickly opened his collar, revealing his white chest.

Shen Ningning screamed and covered her eyes immediately.

"You dare to be a hooligan!"

The Black Wolf King took the lead in roaring and scolding this unruly boy.

Tuoye said hurriedly: "Look carefully, the plum pattern mark on my chest, you should have heard the legend of Changliu Kingdom, every prince born, on the day of adulthood, if recognized by his father, will have a plum mark on his chest, which means he has a chance to compete for the throne."

Shen Ningning opened her slender fingers and really saw the red plum scar on Tuoye's chest.

She turned her back: "Put on your clothes!"

Tuoye tied his collar with a cold face, and Shen Ningning turned around and sat down to talk to him again.

"Why did Xiumu want to kill you? Since you are a prince, isn't he afraid of being blamed by King Da Ri when he returns?"

Takuye's eyes were deep, revealing a cold hatred.

"Xiumu must have been bribed by my eldest brother."

The eldest prince had been fighting for power with him for a long time. Originally, Tuoye thought that his eldest brother was not smart enough, and even lacked a little courage, and had always looked down on him.

But he didn't expect that he would bribe Xiumu directly at the first move, and that he was his father's trusted adviser.

Shen Ningning thought about his words for a moment and frowned.

"So, if you died in Cangyun Country because of the assassination, wouldn't we be unable to explain it? He killed you and put the blame on our Cangyun Country!"

Takuye's original reason was not clear, but after Shen Ningning's analysis, he suddenly understood it.

"How ridiculous!" He gritted his teeth, opened the quilt and was about to get off the bed: "I'm going to kill this old thing now!"

However, he only moved a little and knelt down in pain.

Shen Ningning shook her head and said, "You are in this state now. I'm afraid you will only die if you go. I advise you to rest well. The poison has been cured with great difficulty. Don't torture yourself again."

Tuoye felt very humiliated.

The plan that Xiumu came up with for Qi Xiuwei was a self-torture trick.

Originally, they agreed to let the injured Tuoye appear in front of Shen Ningning, tell her that Qi Xiuwei was injured, and ask her to go to rescue.

When Shen Ningning rushed to their trap, she would be caught together and locked in a hidden cellar.

At that time, Qi Xiuwei would pretend to reconcile and live and die with Shen Ningning. After getting out, she would naturally win Shen Ningning's trust and guilt.

But Tuoye never expected that this plan that seemed to be aimed at Shen Ningning was actually aimed at him.

The assassin said it was just a show, but he actually poisoned the blade!

Tuoye got up in a panic, lay down on the couch again, and hammered the bed board heavily.

"When I rest well, I will make Xiumu, the old man, regret it."

Seeing his gritting teeth, Shen Ningning's dark and moist eyes paused.

"I heard that Xiaowei was taken away by you after she came out of prison. Is she feeling okay?"

Tuoye was silent.

He didn't know how to answer Shen Ningning.

Qi Xiuwei not only planned with Xiumu to harm her, but also resented Shen Ningning.

Seeing this, Shen Ningning just shook her head helplessly.

"She must still resent me. Forget it, let it go." With that, she turned and left.

Tuoye was silent alone in the room.

Although he hated Xiumu, he did not tell all their plans.

Because Qi Xiuwei would soon come to pretend to seek Shen Ningning's forgiveness, so as to find ways to steal the secret recipe of gunpowder.

This is a good thing for Changliu. No matter how much Tuoye hates Xiumu, he will not joke about the future of Changliu.

They have been planning for so long, and they can't fail.

So, I can only apologize to Shen Ningning!

It's late at night.

Shen Ningning rode the Black Wolf King and came to the forest.

A large number of people and horses, like a dark fog, ambushed on the mountain.

A man walked out of it, with deep eyes and a chill.

When he saw Shen Ningning, Mo Lingwei stepped forward: "Can we go in and catch him?"

Shen Ningning shook her head: "Wait a little longer, now is not a good time."

Mo Lingwei frowned and looked up at the mansion in the deep mountains under the moonlight.

His only dissatisfaction with this matter is that Tuoye, this thing, how can he live in Shen Ningning's house on Wolf Mountain!

Don't blame him for being rude when Tuoye is caught.
