Chapter 236 What are these things?
Fortunately, Mu Ruixi was not seriously injured. After more than half a month of rest, her body had recovered a little and she could walk with the help of lotus flowers.
It was at that time that Mu Ruixi realized how dangerous that night was.
If Zhang Lingchen and the other two had not gone to look for Mu Ruixi that night, no one would have noticed that they were attacked at the post station.
When Zhang Lingshen and others saw a large number of men in black attacking the post station, they immediately passed the news to the new leader of the Cavalry Battalion.
If they had arrived a step later, Muraixi, Gao Ting and others would have died instead of just suffering minor injuries.
Thinking of the danger of this trip, Shi'an and others moved into Captain Wang's house. Captain Wang's property was confiscated and the house became idle.
What's more, Captain Wang's residence is located in the center of the entire Nanming City. The guards are stationed not too close to here, which makes it safer.
When Lin Mu heard that Mu Ruixi was attacked, he was very anxious. He had naturally encountered the same thing, but he did not suffer any harm.
When Lin Muwen heard this, he realized that there were too many secret guards around him. Before they could get close to him, they were all killed.
The eldest prince's residence.
When Gu Yiming heard that all the assassins he sent to assassinate Shi An and others were killed, he became furious and beheaded more than ten of his subordinates on the spot.
"Trash! Idiots!" Gu Yiming cursed at the group of people kneeling on the ground.
"What the hell are these? More than 400 soldiers, yet a woman like Mu Ruixi was seriously injured! How did they do it? What did I take you for?"
"It's my fault! But Prince Mu Ruixi is not an ordinary person, and his skills are not ordinary." One of Gu Yiming's followers lowered his head in fear.
When Gu Yiming heard that Mu Ruixi knew kung fu, he immediately frowned with a look of disbelief.
"Didn't she have no strength at all before? How could she have mastered it in just one night?"
Gu Yiming glanced at his subordinate coldly, as if to say that if he couldn't give him an explanation, he would kill him.
His subordinates buried their heads even deeper, and sweat covered Shanjiaojiu's forehead.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the last time Mu Ruixi took the Eighth Prince out to find the Imperial Master Shi'an, we thought she was a martial artist."
Gu Yiming sneered, "Go on!"
"On our way here, everyone was killed, even Lord Bai Yebai. At that time, there was a great general. Lin Muwen possessed special skills, comparable to Lao Bai, and the general could contain him, so--"
"So what? Tell me!"
"Right, right, right. So, Mu Ruixi and Zhang Shuhe both killed those forty-odd people. Zhang Shuhe's skills aren't very good, so it's impossible for him to have such great abilities. So there's only one possibility, and that's someone from the Mu family!"
"So you mean that the people of the Mu family are very powerful?" A hint of coldness flashed in Gu Yiming's eyes.
The men in black hurriedly lowered their heads, trembling with fear and not daring to speak.
Whoosh!
Gu Yiming stretched out his right hand, his five fingers like hooks, grabbed the man's neck and lifted him up.
"If I don't even know if a woman has any skills, what's the point of keeping you?"
"Sir, please forgive me!" The man tried desperately to get Gu Yiming to let him go.
However, Gu Yiming would not show mercy, and his neck was already crushed.
"Crack!" A crisp sound was heard. Gu Yiming grabbed his neck, his eyes wide open, obviously unwilling to give in.
"Listen to me, I don't want garbage!" Gu Yiming threw the body on the ground and left.
"Yes, I'll go right away!"
"Take this body outside and dispose of it!" Gu Yiming's cold voice came from the room.
Two men in black quickly stepped forward and carried the body away.
Only after all the black-robed people had left did Gu Yiming murmur softly, "Mu Ruixi, Mu Ruixi, you are the biggest uncertainty."
In southern Xinjiang, Mu Ruixi was walking in the courtyard supported by He Hua when she suddenly heard two consecutive sounds.
"Princess, have you caught a cold? Why don't we leave now?" said Lotus next to her.
Mu Ruixi shook her head. "Nothing. I'm just having random thoughts and talking nonsense in my head. You're right!"
Hehua still brought a mink coat to give to Mu Ruixi, and Mu Ruixi did not refuse and put it on herself.
Lotus said beside her, "Princess, can we go home the day after tomorrow?"
Mu Ruixi nodded. "Yes, we'll be leaving in about two days. Wang Baizhu has been captured, and the new governor will probably arrive today. We can go home after we finish our business."
Southern Xinjiang is an important place with more than ten cities, and everyone wants to become a local lord here.
Gui Ming naturally would not let Lin Mu take this important position, so discussions about this position have been held many times in the court.
However, no one knew what the Emperor was thinking. He did not pass the position to Gu Yiming, but instead gave it to Wang Bo, who had a good relationship with Lin Muwen.
Wang Bo used to be the director of the Honglu Temple in the Lifanyuan, in charge of government affairs in various places. However, this time, His Majesty the Emperor pulled him down from the court, which could be regarded as an indirect promotion.
This made all the civil and military officials in the court seriously try to figure out the late emperor's intentions.
However, Mu Ruixi and others were surprised and happy. Wang Bo and Lin Muwen were in the same group. In this way, the South would not fall into Gu Yiming's hands, which was also a good thing for Lin Muwen.
Shi'an seemed to have anticipated this, and he still looked calm and composed, with an air of immortality.
Wang Bo arrived in southern Xinjiang at noon. Shi'an did nothing and stayed in his bedroom.
Mu Ruixi felt very uncomfortable, but she had no choice but to help deal with all the affairs in Southern Xinjiang herself.
Wang Bo was indeed quite capable. The day after the transaction was completed, he held a grand banquet in the south.
These people were selected from local low-level officials.
In the evening, Mu Ruixi and the others packed their luggage and prepared to set off the next morning. The affairs of southern Xinjiang were left to Wang Bo to deal with alone.
That night, Wang Bo set up a banquet to bid farewell to Mu Ruixi and the others.
"Your Highness, His Majesty is very satisfied with this trip to Southern Xinjiang. I also admire you. Your Highness is indeed a heroine."
Mu Ruixi was not very happy to hear Wang Bo's flattery. Instead, she smiled modestly and said, "Mr. Liu, you are too kind. It is really gratifying to be the lord of a city."
Wang Bo shook his head and smiled bitterly, "This position is indeed very attractive, but I have too many things to worry about.
