Chapter 995: Abandoned Enemy Country Proton 4
"Who told you this? Yun Yi?"
Yue Mocheng was very sure that no one would send guards disguised as assassins to assassinate Yun Yi.
Now, the people in the Dayue royal family are either enjoying themselves every day like his father, or they are well aware of the reasons why the Yun Kingdom did not pay tribute on time. No matter which one it is, they will not attack Yun Yi.
"Who told me that? I saw it with my own eyes."
Yue Moqing snorted, "I saw it with both my own eyes. If Yun Yi hadn't known a bit of martial arts and hadn't beaten that guy away, you'd probably be collecting his body right now."
Yue Moqing didn't look like he was lying, which made Yue Mocheng alert.
Since they were not the ones sent to murder Yun Yi, who else wanted Yun Yi's life?
Could it be that they were sent by Yun Country?
Seeing that Yun Yi was not dying yet, he couldn't wait to get rid of him and provoke a war between the two countries?
"I told you before that you were not allowed to go to Yun Yi, but not only did you go, you went in the dead of night. Did you really think I was reluctant to report to Father and Mother to ban you?"
Upon hearing this, Yue Moqing couldn't help but shrink his shoulders, completely losing his previous arrogance.
"I...I just couldn't sleep at night so I went out for a walk. I'll be back soon."
Yue Moqing said as he turned around and was about to leave, but the next moment, not surprisingly, Yue Mocheng grabbed him by the back of the neck again.
"I'll have someone send you back. You'll just stay in your palace for the next few days and you're not allowed to go anywhere."
Yue Moqing was shocked when he heard this. He wanted to refute but seeing Yue Mocheng's extremely serious face, he could only swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
He reluctantly followed a group of young eunuchs called by Yue Mocheng back to his palace.
Yue Moqing had no idea of the fear in Yue Mocheng's heart.
Yue Moqing was dressed as a palace maid and went out at night without a maid. If the man in black saw her after he succeeded in murdering Yun Yi, he would definitely kill her.
Fortunately, the man in black was repelled by Yun Yi.
But could the man in black who was able to hide from the royal guards and sneak into the palace be repelled by Yun Yi?
Didn’t Yun Yi fail to even climb over the palace wall a few days ago, falling off the wall and nearly losing his life?
But no matter what the real reason is, I have to go see Yun Yi first.
Ever since Yue Moqing left, Yun Yi knew that Yue Mocheng would definitely come.
Now, the only person in Dayue who can stand on his own and have a clear analysis of the situation between Dayue and Yun Kingdom is Yue Mocheng.
Although it was late at night, the lanterns outside the house were bright. The house, which was rarely visited by anyone, was now surrounded by palace servants and guards.
"Your Highness the Eighth Prince is here. Why don't you come out and greet us?" The eunuch's sharp voice sounded beside his ear.
Yun Yi slowly opened his eyes and looked over. Yue Mocheng had already raised his hand to stop the person following him, and walked slowly into the house alone.
There were no candles burning in the house, but the light from the lanterns outside shone in, filling half of the room, making it not feel dark at all.
It’s just that the dusty smell in the room makes people uncomfortable. Yue Mocheng looked at Yun Yi who was sitting cross-legged on the bed.
The moment their eyes met, Yue Mocheng was stunned when he saw his bright eyes.
The last time we met was three years ago when he first came to Dayue.
The boy at that time was full of timidity. No one knew whether it was because he was weak or timid. He could not even walk steadily, and he lowered his eyes and did not dare to look up.
But at this moment, there was no trace of timidity in the eyes that looked at him.
Very calm, as if just looking at an unrelated stranger.
"I heard that you were attacked by an assassin tonight? I brought the imperial physician here to treat you."
"Thank you, Eighth Prince, for your concern." Yun Yi raised a smile on his lips and let the imperial physician behind Yue Mocheng come forward.
But when the imperial physician walked up to him, Yun Yi suddenly withdrew his hand.
"Actually, Your Highness, there's no need to go to such lengths. Find someone skilled in martial arts to take my pulse and test my martial arts proficiency."
"As the saying goes, two fists cannot defeat four hands. No matter how powerful my martial arts skills are, I am still a mortal. Your Highness only needs to send a few more people over, or a bowl of poison to kill me."
Yue Mocheng's gaze fell on the mocking smile on Yun Yi's lips.
So, Yun Yi thought that it was Dayue’s assassin who wanted to kill him?
Do you absolutely not think that the man in black was sent by Yun Country?
"You go down first."
The imperial physician bowed and retreated, closing the door with a creaky sound.
"Since you know martial arts, why did you fall off the palace wall?" Yue Mocheng asked directly.
The palace wall is neither high nor low.
Even though his martial arts skills were not good enough to climb over the palace wall, he did not fall down and faint. He was found by patrolling guards the next day.
"Maybe it's because I'm not well fed and well clothed, and I don't have enough physical strength." Yun Yi said with a smile on his face.
Yue Mocheng was stunned. He didn't expect this to be the answer.
I glanced at the stew pot on the stove next to me, which contained a bowl of bird's nest porridge.
Obviously, this is not the food sent by the eunuch to Yun Yi, but was sent to him by Yue Moqing?
But that's not right. The charcoal in the stove is also the best silver charcoal. Yue Moqing is weak and even if she realizes that Yun Yi is short of charcoal, she can't carry a basket of charcoal to him.
Yun Yi got it himself.
He knows martial arts, was able to drive away the men in black tonight, and could even get himself food and charcoal, so why did he fall off the palace wall?
"Are you really Yun Yi?"
Could it be that when they were unaware, the spies from the Yun Kingdom rescued the real Eighth Prince and left them with a fake?
Yun Yi only took one look at Yue Mocheng and knew that he had a very creative mind.
"Your Highness, there is no need to doubt me. I am the Eighth Prince of Yun State. I am indeed skilled in martial arts because my mother is a martial artist."
"The reason I fell from the palace wall was because I was short of food and clothing, and I was seriously ill, so I couldn't use my martial arts. After taking medicine these days, I'm almost recovered."
Yun Yi's reasons were reasonable, and even Yue Mocheng couldn't find any fault with them.
"Do you know that the man in black tonight is from Yun country?" Yue Mocheng spoke again.
Although Yun Yi did not show this, he was very confident.
After he finished speaking, Yun Yi did not show any surprise, which further confirmed this point for him.
"Since Your Highness also knows this, then you should understand that you should protect me now and not let the Yun Kingdom spies take advantage of the opportunity."
Upon hearing this, Yue Mocheng finally understood Yun Yi's purpose tonight.
In order to prevent the Yun Kingdom from sending troops, he really had to protect Yun Yi well.
The guards of the entire palace must also be stricter. If a spy comes to assassinate Yun Yi tonight, who knows if it will be his father, the emperor, the queen, or any of them who will die tomorrow.
