Her Majesty the Queen

Chapter 24
The night is deep, the bright moon is like water, and the cool breeze is blowing.

The torch was flickered by the wind.Luoyun Courtyard was full of people, but it was extremely quiet.Everyone kept looking down at their toes.No matter what, Qu Wanli sneaked into the palace and snatched Zisu away, it was because of their ineffective guarding.

Feng Lin stood still in place, her eyes still stayed in the direction where Qu Wanli left.Even though it was already pitch black there, there was no longer a single figure to be seen.

Feng Lin didn't speak, who would dare to take the initiative to speak.

All of a sudden, there was nothing else in the whole yard except the sound of the torches "chi chi".

After a quarter of an hour, there was a sound of steady but slightly hasty footsteps from outside the courtyard.Everyone turned their heads together, and saw Yue Yun walking quickly in thin clothes.

It was almost midnight, and the courtyard where Yueyun lived was still some distance away from Luoyunyuan.Presumably he rushed over as soon as he got the news.Although his clothes were as neat as ever, his long, jet-black hair was a little messy.

Seeing Yueyun approaching quickly, all the guards and Fuju brushed their bodies and saluted at the same time: "I have seen you."

Chu Yueyun nodded slightly as an answer.

He walked behind Feng Lin, leaned towards her, and asked in a low voice: "My lord, what happened?"

Hearing Yue Yun's voice, Feng Lin looked away, and she turned to face Yue Yun, without any emotion in her voice. "Zisu was kidnapped by Qu Wanli, and his target is me."

"Qu Wanli?" Yue Yun silently recited the name, thinking about it in his head, and came up with the result.He then asked: "But the Master Qu of the Dark Night Pavilion?"

Before leaving the court, a man who respects the country has always stayed in his boudoir.This month, Yueyun, as the son of Zuoxiang, how could he hear of Qu Wanli's name.What's more, from his tone, Feng Lin could clearly tell that the two were old acquaintances.

Feng Lin was very surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Chu Yun knows Qu Wanli?"

Yue Yun nodded, seeming to be deep in memory.That was five years ago, when he accompanied his mother on a private visit to investigate people's sentiments.When passing through Huaizhou, he met Qu Wanli who was seriously injured until he fell into a coma.He and his mother worked together to save it.Unexpectedly, the next day, when he went to change his dressing again, he had already disappeared.A letter and an exquisite willow leaf dart were left on the table.He once promised in the letter that one day, if someone came to the door with that willow leaf dart, he would definitely repay him.

It has been a long time since this incident, if Feng Lin hadn't mentioned Qu Wanli's name, Yue Yun would have almost forgotten it.

Yue Yun thought for a while, and finally said slowly: "The minister once saved Qu Wanli's life when he was traveling with his mother. He left a letter saying that he would definitely repay him in the future." After Yue Yun said, he wanted to After thinking about it, he didn't understand why Qu Wanli suddenly appeared in Linwang's mansion and took away Zisu.So he asked again: "Why did he rob Zisu?"

Although Yue Yun doesn't care about world affairs now, it doesn't mean he is ignorant.Qu Wanli is the owner of the Dark Ye Pavilion, and the Dark Ye Pavilion specializes in killing people.After going back and forth, he can understand a little bit.

Ever since she came to Beiyue Dynasty, Feng Lin lived with her head on her belt every day.Life is the least valuable in this era.She smiled faintly, as if she was talking about an insignificant matter: "I'm afraid someone wants to buy this king's life!"

Feng Lin spoke calmly, but Yue Yun couldn't help turning pale.

Fenglin has many political enemies, but not many dare to attack her.Because not many people have the courage to bear the consequences of failure.Feng Lin is not a kind person, she has never had the word "benevolence" in her heart, she only has to conquer, conquer the world, or be a man.

Yue Yun's handsome and extraordinary face completely lost all color. He already had a candidate in his heart, but he didn't want to believe it.He opened his mouth and finally asked, "Who is it?"

Feng Lin pursed her lips and remained silent. There were quite a few people in the Northern Moon Dynasty who wanted her dead, but her first guess was Feng Jin.Not to mention the recent dispute between the two, since she alone is the only obstacle to her succession to the throne, she will definitely do everything possible to get rid of herself.

Yue Yun is gentle and kind, but he is not stupid.Feng Lin was silent, he could more or less guess it.I'm afraid that the person who hired Qu to get away this time is Feng Jin.

What used to be a sisterly relationship is now a rivalry.

Yue Yun was sad, since when did the three of them come to this point.Yue Yun stared silently at Feng Lin's side face.The bitterness and love in his heart were intertwined, until he was trapped in it, unable to breathe.

Feng Lin did not ignore the sadness in Yue Yun's eyes.She opened her mouth, thousands of words gushed out of her throat, and finally found that she had nothing to say.

The wind is getting stronger.Feng Lin's loosely tied purple robe fluttered wantonly in the wind.The moon is hidden in the clouds, and the light is strong and weak.

Feng Lin has profound internal energy close to him, so he doesn't feel too cold.But Yueyun and Fuju are just two thin men, so naturally they cannot be compared with Fenglin.After a while, the two of them turned pale and their lips were chapped.

Feng Lin couldn't bear it, so he waved his hand and said, "Let's all retreat."

With Feng Lin's order, all the guards receded like a tide.Soon, only Yueyun and Fuju were left in Luoyun courtyard.

Seeing that neither of them retreated, Feng Lin raised his face and said, "Why don't you retreat?"

Fu Ju had already habitually followed Feng Lin's orders, but now hearing her tone of impatience, her body reacted involuntarily, turning her head three times and leaving.

The Luoyun Courtyard at night looks a bit bleak.Feng Lin and Yue Yun stood facing each other, silent for a long time, Feng Lin took the lead and said, "Why isn't Chu Yun leaving?"

"I want to know, what should the lord do?" Yue Yun asked instead of answering Feng Lin's words.

Zisu was robbed, and Fenglin would definitely not let her die.The question is how to save it?Qu Wanli's goal was originally Fenglin, if she went, it would be extremely dangerous.

"This king will personally go to the Dark Night Pavilion and bring Zisu back." The Dark Night Pavilion is a well-known assassin organization in the world, and there are many masters in the pavilion.But Feng Lin had no choice but to go.Firstly, the wedding date of the two has already been set, if Zisu is missing now, then the news will definitely reach the Queen's ears.Furthermore, Zisu is an important pawn in her hands, and she doesn't want to give it up unless she has to.

Yue Yun was not at all surprised by Feng Lin's decision.He had no intention of stopping it.Just asking for orders: "I beg the prince to take his servants to the Dark Night Pavilion together."

"No. The Dark Night Pavilion is different from the mansion. It must be full of dangers. I'm afraid I can't protect you well." Feng Lin refused without thinking.

Yue Yun did not give up, and continued to persuade: "Qu Wanli Zeng actually owes the servant a favor. It may be feasible for the servant to beg him to let Young Master Zisu go."

There is indeed some truth in what Yue Yun said.It would be best if Zisu could be rescued without force.Feng Lin had no reason to refuse, so he nodded in agreement.
