Chapter 131 Cannon Fodder Jin 14 Targeted by Slaves

"You, sleep with me..."
Under the quiet moonlight, Yun Wu bit her pink lips with a soft and indulgent voice, and her fair cheeks seemed to be stained with some blush.
She thought that Xie Rongjing was still injured and no one knew about it except the two of them, so she would just live in one room.
"I-I just don't like how smelly you will be if you sleep in a stable."
Yun Wu blinked her watery eyes and said fiercely, like a kitten that didn't even have sharp teeth pretending to be angry and threatening the big tiger in front of her.
Xie Rongjing felt his heart beating hard in his chest. He pursed his thin lips in the dark environment, and his beautiful eyes concealed joy.
"I am just the slave of the young lady, with a low status. How can I deserve to lie on the same bed and sleep under the same quilt as the young lady..."
Xie Rongjing lowered his eyes and spoke humbly, but his slightly trembling fingertips revealed his inner excitement.
Is he going to sleep with the lady?He didn't mean to sleep in the same bed with the lady and cuddle with her. He just wanted to help her warm the bed. Yes, that's it.
"What are you thinking? I want you to lay the floor!"
Yun Wu's somewhat shy and angry voice interrupted Xie Rongjing's thought of an inappropriate scene for children.
He raised his head and saw his lady pointing at him with her slender green fingers, her glassy eyes filled with shame and anger.
What about sharing the same bed? She originally planned to let Xie Rongjing share a guest room with her, but unexpectedly he misunderstood.
Xie Rongjing was completely unaware of Yun Wu's shame and anger. He stared at Yun Wu's green-white fingers pointing at him, as slender as white jade.
Yun Wu thought he was thinking about the wrong thing he just said, but in fact, what he was thinking about was...
The lady's hands are so beautiful. I want to kiss, lick, and touch little Rongjing with her white fingers...

The environment of the best guest room in this inn can only be barely adequate. Compared with Yun Wu's boudoir in the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is like heaven and earth.
But there was no better place to go when they were fleeing. Although the guest room was small, it was enough for them to stay and rest.
Xie Rongjing quickly made the bed clean, and Yun Wu lay down on it without even taking off her winter clothes. Fortunately, the guest room was simple but neatly cleaned, otherwise she might not be able to sleep even if she wanted to.
Xie Rongjing spread a layer of quilt next to the bed and lay on it.
It was a cold night, and there was only a shaky candlelight in the room.
The floor was hard and cold, which was actually not easy to sleep on, but Xie Rongjing felt extremely satisfied, and he ignored the dull pain in the wound on his left arm.
The guest room was extremely quiet. Yun Wu was lying on her side on the bed, and she could vaguely see Xie Rongjing sleeping on the floor.
"Xie Rongjing..."
She suddenly called his name, her voice weak and low because she was a little sleepy.
"I'm here, what are your orders, young lady?"
Xie Rongjing's voice came, and Yun Wu blinked her eyes sleepily twice, and then thought of the scene where Xie Rongjing proposed to sleep in the stable without thinking.
She murmured sleepily:
"Have you... suffered a lot in the past?"
"I no longer feel bitter after meeting the lady."
Xie Rongjing's deep and pleasant voice came. He was the prince of the Xiao Kingdom, but he was not favored. His father was fatuous and favored his successor.
He suffered a lot when he was still in the palace as a child. He was born as the legitimate son of the late empress, but his life was not as good as that of the palace maids and eunuchs. His father indulged in wine and sex and was indifferent to him.
Later, he wanted to kill him without telling Emperor Xiao to avoid future troubles. Assassinations and assassinations continued one after another. He traveled through the Xiao Kingdom several times and finally came to the Wei Kingdom, where he disguised himself as a slave to avoid detection.
He immediately set his sights on his lady, pretending to be pitiful and begging her to buy him.
"Then when I get back...I'll give you more monthly money, a lot more..."
Yun Wu muttered drowsily, her eyelids were closed tightly, and she was still thinking in her sleep that she would give Xie Rongjing a piece of cake when she ate it.
Xie Rongjing was lying on his side and saw that Yun Wu on the bed had fallen asleep with steady breathing.
He waited for a while and waited until Yun Wu fell asleep completely before he stood up and left gently.
In the deserted woods near the guest room, a secret guard quickly appeared in front of Xie Rongjing. The man knelt down respectfully in front of Xie Rongjing.
"Your Highness, my subordinates have identified two groups of people who were assassinated today. One group was ordered by the Crown Prince of Wei Kingdom and was not intended to harm the young lady's life. Originally, the Crown Prince of Wei Kingdom was going to rescue the young lady so that she could be engaged to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the other party A group of men raided.”
The secret guard recounted the urgently investigated news. A look of understanding appeared on Xie Rongjing's face, and he continued to listen to the secret guard:
"The other group of people who wanted to kill the lady was the concubine's brother, Cao Guogong, the uncle of the second prince. They got the information and learned that the prince wanted to use the influence of the Prime Minister's Palace to secure his position as the crown prince, so they wanted to kill the lady to take advantage of the situation. Put the blame on the prince, and when the prince is deposed, Duke Cao and the noble concubine can take the opportunity to support the second prince."
"One or two, both want that position..."
Xie Rongjing's eyes were cold. Wei Congyu was too impatient this time. He couldn't wait for the hero to save the beauty so that he could get engaged to his lady smoothly.
"Your Highness, Duke Cao Guo sent men to hunt again tonight, but he was all killed by his subordinates. Moreover, Prime Minister Yun did not publicize what happened today and is secretly ordering people to look for the young lady."
By hiding this matter from anyone, he can protect Yun Wu's reputation and lead the snake out of its hole. Although Prime Minister Yun was worried about his daughter's safety, he did not lose his sense of proportion.
"My father-in-law is really smart in what he did."
Xie Rongjing said to himself. His subordinate, who had lowered his head respectfully, suddenly raised his head and glanced at his Highness suspiciously.
If he remembered correctly, His Highness's current identity was just a slave to Miss Yun.
This... I have already called my father-in-law. As expected of His Highness, he is indeed wise and powerful.
"My subordinate has something else to report!"
The secret guard upheld good professional ethics, quickly put the little incident behind him, and started talking about business.
Because he is a career fan of His Highness.
"Your Highness, spies from the Xiao Kingdom have come to report that Your Majesty is critically ill and his successor has no heirs. His Majesty is now becoming more mature. It is a good time to return to the palace and seize power."
The secret guard's tone was slightly excited, Xie Rongjing's thin lips pursed slightly, and his handsome eyebrows were hesitant under the dim moonlight.
"Your Highness, I know that you don't want to leave Miss Yun's side, but if you don't have the power, how will you be able to protect Miss Yun in the future?"
Although the secret guard's words were to persuade Xie Rongjing to return to Xiao Country, he was also considering the long term.
Xie Rongjing's eyes were dark. After the failure of this matter, both Wei Congyu and Cao Guogong of the imperial concubine faction would stop for a while, but there was no guarantee that Yun Wu would not be involved in the imperial power again in the future.
If Wei Congyu really makes a marriage agreement with the lady, he may not be kind to the lady after he ascends the throne. The lady will be the victim of him to scare the monkeys after he ascends the throne, and he will not let such a thing happen.
He can be the lady's slave, but not just a slave.
