"The Ruyang Mansion?" Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly asked, "Didn't the Great Khan send you to investigate the death of Hesar and Nachen?"
"The cause of death can't be found out in a short time. The cause of their deaths is so strange that I have no clue at all. I don't know how to report it." Naya smiled bitterly. "At the same time, I also have the task of monitoring the Ruyang Mansion. Because of Song Qingshu, I am worried that there will be some changes in the mansion."
Song Qingshu rolled his eyes and said, "Anyway, it's on the way back. Why don't I help you check the Ruyang Mansion? You can focus on the cause of death of Nachen and the others. After all, this time the Great Khan is angry, and their identities are sensitive. It's better to find out as soon as possible." He came out today to make up for the loophole in the Shuiyue Sect, and to inform Zhao Min so that she wouldn't have to worry about it.
"How can I do that? You've helped me a lot today." Naya smiled and put his hand on his shoulder.
Song Qingshu replied, "Anyway, I have nothing to do now, and one more friend is one more way."
Naya's face suddenly darkened. He said in a low voice, "Tell me honestly, why do you want to go to the Ruyang Mansion?"
Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat. He was a little too impatient and had aroused the other's suspicion. But he was already prepared. He gave a knowing smile and said, "To tell you the truth, I've long heard that Princess Shaomin is the most beautiful woman in Mongolia. I want to see her more."
Naya Ah laughed out loud, "I've already guessed your intentions. But let me remind you, that woman is a rose with thorns. Don't try to bully her just because she's in dire straits. If you do, you'll end up with your hands covered in blood."
Song Qingshu followed up and said, "Of course I know what I'm doing. I'm just going to see her beauty. How could I have any other thoughts? You know, she's Song Qingshu's woman. I'm not arrogant enough to deal with a Great Guru. "
Seeing his sincerity, Naya nodded and said, "I'm relieved to hear that. I'll leave the Ruyang Palace to you. I'll go find some coroner to dissect Nachen and Hesar's bodies and find out how they died."
After giving some instructions, Naya left in a hurry with his men, while Song Qingshu rushed to the Ruyang Palace.
As soon as they arrived at the Ruyang Mansion, they found that it was very noisy at the entrance. They saw that Zhao Min was about to come out with her people, but the surrounding guards stopped them. Both sides were in a standoff, and the tense situation could break out at any moment.
Zhao Min was always the most beautiful rose in the room, but now her face was frosty. "I'm a princess appointed by the Khan himself. Am I not allowed to go out now? Are you treating me like a criminal or something?! "
Up until now, the cause of Prince Ruyang's death had been said to be an accident and had nothing to do with Temujin. Temujin had even publicly rewarded Zhao Min and other members of the Ruyang Palace in order to pacify the other neutral forces in the court.
As for being under house arrest in the Ruyang Palace, that was because Zhao Min and Temujin had a tacit understanding. Zhao Min stayed at home every day to show that she knew her place and did not give the other side any excuse to make trouble.
With her cooperation, Temujin found it difficult to deal with her, so he could only secretly send people to keep an eye on her.
Both sides knew that this was house arrest, but the officials did not admit it, and Temujin would not issue a decree to leave any evidence. So now that Zhao Min wanted to go out, it was reasonable to say that these people had no right to stop her.
But everyone knew what Temujin was thinking and did not dare to let her go. So they could not stop her, but they could not let her go either. The two sides were in a stalemate.
The people who were keeping an eye on the Ruyang Palace came out one after another. The leader kept trying to persuade her, but Zhao Min did not stop at all. She walked straight out with a cold face. She walked at the very front, and because she was a woman, the others did not know whether to step back or touch her.
Seeing that the other side was about to break through the last line of defense, the person in charge of keeping an eye on her finally pulled out his sword. "Princess, if you don't go back, don't blame us for being merciless."
Zhao Min laughed coldly. "I'd like to see how merciless you can be." As soon as she finished speaking, the archers behind her all drew their bows and nocked their arrows. The other people's expressions changed drastically. Although these archers were few in number, they were famous godly archers. If they really let them shoot, who knew how many people would die in the battlefield.
Seeing that the two sides were about to start fighting, Song Qingshu hurried over. "Everyone, stop! What happened?"
When Zhao Min saw him, she was surprised at first, then a hint of surprise appeared on her face. But in a flash, she returned to normal.
Song QingShu was secretly impressed. Her acting skills were superb.
The people sent by Naya ran to the people guarding the Ruyang Palace to explain his identity. Now he was in charge of this place.
"Where are you going, Princess?" Song Qingshu asked with a smile.
Zhao Min snorted. "Do I need to tell you where I go?"
Song Qingshu replied, "You are a noble princess. Of course, you don't need to tell us. But the city is not peaceful these days. Many rebels have been looting. The Great Khan specially ordered us to protect you, Princess, in case you are hurt by the rebels."
"Who are the rebels you mentioned?" Zhao Min looked at him carefully.
Song Qingshu replied, "The former Golden Knife Emperor's son-in-law, and some masters from the Central Plains. It is said that there is also a playboy surnamed Song. I wonder if you know him, Princess?"
"I hate playboys the most in my life. How could I know him?" Zhao Min stared at him fiercely.
Song Qingshu smiled embarrassedly. "Unfortunately, he escaped without a trace. When the royal preceptor catches him, how about handing him over to you?"
Zhao Min snorted. "I am not interested in these messy things. Can I go out and buy some rouge and powder?"
Song Qingshu replied, "Of course. But in order to protect your safety, I have to follow you. Please understand."
Zhao Min sneered. "Follow me if you want." Then she walked to the street with her hands clasped behind her back.
The others slightly changed their expressions. Some wanted to stop her, but they thought that the superiors did not say that she was not allowed to go out. It was a solution if she could follow them.
Song QingShu took the opportunity to follow Zhao Min with his men. He went straight to Zhao Min's side and said, "Princess, if you lack any rouge or face powder, why don't you just ask the servants to send it over? There's no need to trouble yourself to go there."
"Women enjoy the process of buying, can't they?" Zhao Min rolled her eyes. She frowned at the warriors behind her. "Why are you following me so closely? Are you going to escort a criminal?"
Song QingShu took the opportunity to wave his hand at them, indicating that they should stay away and that he would stay by her side. The others knew that he knew martial arts, so they did not say anything.
Seeing that the people had walked away, Song Qingshu said, "If I didn't come just now, you would have fought with them. How would you deal with it then?"
Zhao Min said matter-of-factly, "My man is in trouble, and I'm not allowed to mess around a bit? Even if Temujin knew, he wouldn't do anything to me. "
Song Qingshu knew that she was very familiar with the way the Mongolians handled things. She must have a firm grasp of Temujin's mentality. But what moved him even more was the way she addressed him. "Min Min ~"
Zhao Min spat. "Don't call me that. It's a bit uncomfortable."
Song Qingshu also knew that the appearance of the Shuiyue Clan was a bit vulgar. He smiled awkwardly. "Then I'll find a chance to come find you at your place."
"You mustn't!" Zhao Min hurriedly stopped him. "Recently, there have been more and more warriors stationed at my place. It's obvious that they are guarding against you coming to find me. With that kind of defense, no matter how skilled you are, it will be difficult to completely avoid them. You can't take the risk. By the way, how are your injuries? "
Song Qingshu replied, "Don't worry. Although there is still some time before I fully recover, I can at least protect myself."
"How did you recover so quickly?" Zhao Min showed a puzzled expression. "Last night, three Grandmasters surrounded you. I heard that you used the Art of Blood Ignition. You shouldn't have recovered so quickly."
If she hadn't known that his situation was critical, she wouldn't have lost her composure today.
"Yesterday, I found someone to treat my injuries …" Song Qingshu was a bit embarrassed. Avoiding the important points, he told her what happened at Ya Lun's place last night. He mainly emphasized that someone was secretly targeting Ya Lun and he happened to run into them.
Zhao Min was smart and immediately understood what was going on. "So you were hiding in her room the whole night. No wonder they couldn't find you. Hmph, you were injured by Temujin, but you used his granddaughter-in-law to treat your injuries. You're really something. "
