Coincidentally, when Long Yin brought Long Huang'er to the Yeh family, Ye Wuchen happened to return with Oculum in his arms. As soon as Long Yin got off the dragon palanquin, he saw Ye Wuchen standing in front of the door and looking in his direction with a surprised expression. His expression stiffened for a moment, then he walked over with a faint smile on his face.
"Wuchen greets Your Majesty. Your Majesty, why are you free to visit my Yeh family today? " Ye Wuchen bowed slightly and said. Oculum was lying motionlessly on his shoulder, as if he was asleep.
Long Yin chuckled and said casually, "Of course, we have something to do today. Oh? Who is this little girl in your arms? "
A trace of awkwardness flashed across Ye Wuchen's face. He said embarrassedly, "This is a younger sister that I have just acknowledged. She will be staying in my Yeh family from now on."
"Oh..." Long Yin nodded and said with a faint smile, "I have occasionally heard that the Ye Family Prince is very interested in young girls. It seems that this rumor is not false. Hahahaha!"
Ye Wuchen smiled indifferently and did not explain.
The fact that Ye Wuchen was still alive made Long Yin suspicious. This was because he naturally knew that Tao Baibai had already arrived in the morning. Moreover, according to the guards in the east of the city, he was chased by Tao Baibai to the east.
Now, he was standing here unscathed. Not even his clothes were torn. What did this mean?
"Ah! It's him, it's him! "
A high-pitched scream was heard. Then, a young girl in a white palace dress jumped down from the palanquin and stood beside Long Yin. She pointed at Ye Wuchen with an unruly expression, "Imperial Father, it's him... He was the one who bullied me that day!"
The news of the emperor's arrival had already been reported by the guards at the door. At this time, the Yeh family, including Ye Wuyun, all rushed out. As soon as they went out, they saw Flying Phoenix hiding behind the emperor and looking at Ye Wuchen angrily. They suddenly felt a little funny. They naturally knew about the conflict between Flying Phoenix and Ye Wuchen.
After a hurried greeting, the Lin family respectfully welcomed the Emperor and the Princess into the Yeh family. Only then did Wang Wenshu ask with concern, "Chen'er, where did you go? You didn't even come back for lunch. You really made me look for you. And … who is this little girl? "
Oculum was still lying on his shoulder and didn't raise his head. He seemed to be sleeping soundly.
"It's nothing. I just met a bad guy and played around for a while. I found this little girl on the east side of the city. She had been following me since then. I saw that she was homeless, so I brought her to keep Cher company. "Ye Wuchen said casually.
"Oh? Bad guy? What kind of bad guy is so bold to bully the young master of the Yeh family? "Long Yin said in a joking tone.
Ye Wuchen didn't care and curled his lips, "He's just a good-for-nothing nobody. My master left me a lot of life-saving treasures. Even if someone ten times more powerful than him came, I might not care."
These words were naturally said to Long Yin. Sure enough, a look of shock flashed across his face, and his heart was in turmoil.
Ye Wei heard something and frowned, "Chen'er, what's going on? Is someone trying to harm you? "
Hearing this, Wang Wenshu suddenly became nervous.
"I already said it's nothing. It's just a small fight. There's no need to take it to heart." Ye Wuchen said indifferently. Then he turned to Long Yin and said apologetically, "Regarding what happened this morning, Wuchen made things difficult for Your Majesty."
Long Yin nodded, "You really made things difficult for us. Ai, this matter should be blamed on you. Blame yourself for being too outstanding, causing General Hua's daughter to have such deep feelings for you. But it's also good. To be able to help a pair of lovers, what harm is there for us to be a traitor for once. "
Ye Wei hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, your words are too serious. This time, Your Majesty has taken a step back for my son. My Yeh family will remember this great kindness. "
"Ha ha ha ha," Long Yin waved his hand, "There's no need for that. This time, we came to bring Phoenix to see her future husband. When Phoenix marries into the Yeh family three years later, you must treat Phoenix well."
Before Ye Wei could reply, Long Huang'er jumped out as if she had been pricked by a needle. Just when everyone thought that she would shout "don't marry", Long Huang'er shouted something that shocked everyone …
"Don't! I don't want to marry him three years later, I want to marry him right now!! "
She stretched out a white and tender finger and pointed at Ye Wuchen.
Ye Wuchen couldn't help but touch his face secretly. He said to himself, "Could it be that my charm is already this strong?"
After a long period of silence, Long Yin asked tentatively, "Phoenix, what did you say just now?"
"I want to marry him right now!" Long Huang'er repeated. Her face had a bit of anger and a bit of craftiness.
Ye Wuchen looked at this little princess playfully. The smile on his face made Flying Phoenix feel as if she was looking at a big bad wolf staring at a little lamb.
"Hahahaha …" Long Yin roared with laughter and said happily, "Huang 'er, Imperial Father was right. After we met, you really took the initiative to agree. But three years is three years. Although we are more anxious than you, there is no reason for such a young princess to marry. "
"I don't want to, I want to marry him, that way I can … …"
"Absolutely not!"
Everyone in the Yeh family looked at each other with a strange expression. They were confused and didn't know what was going on. What was going on?
"Then … … then can I come here more often to play in the future?" Long Huang'er could only settle for the next best thing and asked eagerly.
"That won't do. A princess running around to her future husband's house every day, it's not appropriate. "Long Yin shook his head.
"Then … … then … … then I want him to protect me when I go to school!" After a while, Flying Phoenix's eyes finally lit up and blurted out.
This time, Long Yin didn't refuse. He turned to look at Ye Wuchen and asked with a smile, "Wuchen, this request, are you willing? Phoenix has been learning painting in the Sky Dragon Imperial Academy for the past few months. With your outstanding painting skills, if you stay by her side, I will be very assured of her safety. And with your painting skills, helping Phoenix to graduate earlier is a piece of cake. "
There was one thing that Long Yin didn't mention, and that was, Long Huang'er rarely went to the Sky Dragon Imperial Academy. He might not even go once every ten days. He was fully deserving of the title of King of Truancy. Long Yin had a headache about this, but he couldn't do anything about it. If he asked those masters to teach him alone, the consequences would all be unspeakably tragic.
Long Huang'er didn't know anything else, he didn't even know how to read, but his pranks were already at the level of a master. They were endless, dazzling, and varied … …
Ye Wuchen luckily became Long Huang'er's next target. Of course, it was still unknown who was going to prank who.
"Your Majesty's orders, Wuchen will naturally obey." Ye Wuchen said without hesitation. Looking at the situation in front of him, he had to obey even if he didn't want to.
Long Huang'er, who was hiding behind Long Yin, finally couldn't help but laugh secretly.
After Long Yin and Long Huang'er left, Ye Nu's expression turned serious. He frowned and asked, "Chen'er, what's going on? Is someone trying to assassinate you? "
Ye Wei also nodded with a heavy expression. Wang Wenshu looked worried as she carefully examined Ye Wuchen from head to toe. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief. Naturally, she didn't know that the only bloodstain on Ye Wuchen's body was covered by Oculum, who was in his arms.
Ye Wuchen, who hadn't said a word all this time, quietly pricked up his ears.
"Someone is indeed trying to kill me, and it's the number one assassin in Tenryū Province, Tao Baibai." Ye Wuchen said calmly.
"What?!" Ye Nu and Ye Wei were both shocked. How could they not know the name of Tao Baibai? This was because he could be said to be a legend in the world of assassins. He was one of the seven Heaven-rank experts in Tenryū Province. As long as he accepted an assassination mission, he would never fail.
"Then now he …"
"He's already dead." Ye Wuchen said casually.
"Dead?! Did you kill him? "Ye Nu asked in a tone that was close to shock.
Ye Wuyun tried his best to maintain a calm expression, but his heart was beating wildly. He couldn't believe his ears. If it wasn't for the fact that Ye Wuchen was alive and standing there unscathed, he would have treated this as a huge joke.
Ye Wuchen chuckled. "I've said it before. My master gave me many life-saving artifacts. Even Lin Yan's strongest move couldn't do anything to me. How could Tao Baibai, who was at the same level as him, hurt me?"
Ye Wei and Ye Nu fell silent. They naturally knew that it was extremely difficult to defeat a Heaven-rank expert, and killing one was as difficult as ascending to heaven. Tao Baibai's death would definitely cause a commotion in Tenryū Province and even the entire Tianchen Mainland.
What they were most concerned about now was who hired Tao Baibai to assassinate Ye Wuchen. Could it be the same people who almost caused the Ye Clan to lose their bloodline a year ago and couldn't be found no matter how hard they tried?
"Chen'Er, who do you think would want to harm you?" Ye Wei asked coldly. He was afraid, but the anger in his heart was burning. If Ye Wuchen didn't have the Sword God's life-saving artifact, the Yeh family would have been extinct again. They didn't even know who was targeting the Yeh family.
Ye Wuchen shook his head. "I don't know. I only have a conflict with the Lin family, but it's not an irreconcilable feud. The Lin family shouldn't be so impulsive as to hire an assassin to assassinate me. Maybe … "Ye Wuchen's eyes flashed." Could it be the Great Wind Nation's royal family? "
"Reason?"
"If Tao Baibai successfully assassinated a member of the Yeh family, what would the consequences be?" Ye Wuchen asked.
"The Yeh family will do its best to destroy the Slayer Pavilion." Ye Wei said resolutely.
Ye Wuchen nodded. "That's right. With the power and influence of my Ye Family, it's not difficult for us to annihilate the Thousand Slayer Pavilion. Therefore, Tao Baibai shouldn't have taken such a risk to assassinate me. Unless that person was able to offer an extremely high reward and was able to protect their Thousand Slayer Pavilion. I can only think of the Great Wind Nation's royal family who has the ability to do so and hates the Yeh family. If I'm not wrong, the Slayer Pavilion has moved to the Great Wind Nation after the assassination failed, so the Yeh family can't take revenge. "
After Ye Wuchen finished, he looked at Ye Wei and Ye Nu meaningfully. Whether or not they can think of the Tenryū Clan is up to them. However, the possibility of that is very slim. Ye Wuchen naturally couldn't tell them the truth.
He glanced at the uncomfortable Ye Wuchen out of the corner of his eye and smiled coldly.
Ye Wei and Ye Nu fell silent. Ye Wuchen said, "She's called Oculum. Let her stay at my place from now on."
"Hmm, do whatever you want," Ye Wei, who was deep in thought, said. He didn't really care about this kind of thing.
"I've been running for half a day, I'm a little tired."
"Chen'Er, go rest. Let me and your grandfather think about it. This matter concerns the safety of the Yeh family. I'll increase the security in the afternoon, then discuss it with the Emperor. "Ye Wei sighed.
Ye Wuchen nodded and left with Oculum. Although he didn't have much hope, the fact that Ye Wei said that he would discuss it with the Emperor meant that his vague hints were in vain. This was to be expected. The men of the Yeh family had always been loyal, but …
They would send out a simple list of people at night so that they could refer to it when they forgot. In addition, the eruption occurred on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, so there should be at least three eruptions during the Eleventh Festival. Hm … I'll make my threats first so that I won't be able to slack off.
