Chapter 120 A Delicate Voice

Chapter 120 A charming voice

"..."

Yu Wenye's face gradually darkened, and he said calmly: "It's nothing, you heard wrong."

After saying that, he turned around and ordered everyone: "Go back to the city!"

After the group tidied up for a while, Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi sat in the carriage, and the rest lined up to protect the carriage and headed to Luoyang City not far away.

After spending most of the two days on horseback, I finally sat down and rested for a while. But Shang Ruyi sat in the carriage, but his body was still stiffer than when he was riding on horseback.

Because this carriage is not big, the two people sitting in it are almost rubbing shoulders and elbow to elbow.

But she - because she fell asleep and was unconscious last night, it was okay to be carried to bed by Yu Wenye. Now that she is awake, she really doesn't want to have any skin contact with him.

However, sitting so quietly and stiffly, the atmosphere in the small carriage was inevitably a bit awkward.

After thinking for a while, Shang Ruyi spoke first and asked a question that had been floating in her mind that night -

"You already knew this would be the result, right?"

"..."

The people around him were motionless, but Shang Ruyi felt that his eyelashes seemed to be fluttering.

She turned to look at Yu Wenye, who had a calm face, and asked again: "You expected this result from the beginning, right?"

Yu Wenye then lowered his head and looked at her: "I didn't expect that."

"That is--"

"I can only let this matter end with this result."

Shang Ruyi frowned and said, "Then, why do you bring so many people and accompany me on this trip?"

After asking this question, she smiled herself.

What else could he want? At that time, he had already put all the conditions of the transaction in front of him, what else could he want?

So he said: "Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."

Seeing her smile, Yu Wenye frowned and said coldly: "Do you think you are very smart?"

These words were obviously provocative, but Shang Ruyi couldn't refute it. After all, since yesterday, when he learned the news about his uncle's exile, his behavior was not considered smart.

She smiled bitterly and said: "You don't need to be so sarcastic. I know I'm not smart. But, I'm a human being, and who can't be controlled by emotions? Could it be that when your most important family member is in trouble, you can

Indifferent?"

"..."

Yu Wenye looked at her for a while, his eyes still looking at a fool.

After a long while, he turned around and said calmly: "If it wasn't like this, I wouldn't have to lead a team of people to accompany you so far in the middle of the night."

Shang Ruyi said seriously: "No matter what, I still want to thank you."

"oh?"

"At least it allowed me to meet my uncle and aunt, and also my brother."

Mentioning Shen Wuzheng, the smile on Shang Ruyi's face deepened. What made her happiest during this trip was seeing her eldest brother. Although the two of them only met briefly, she knew that everything was safe with him and that he would take care of Shen along the way.

As a couple, she can rest assured.

Seeing the smile that almost overflowed from the corners of her eyes and brows, Yu Wenye's brows wrinkled again.

Just then, the carriage stopped.

Yu Wenye was about to say something, but was taken back by the shock. He heard a burst of voices outside, and it was the soldiers guarding the city who stopped them.

"Stop!"

Mu Xian, who was sitting at the front of the car, immediately asked: "What are you doing?"

Yu Wenye raised a corner of the curtain with both hands and looked out. He saw a group of city guards standing in front. One of the captains stood in front of the carriage: "The city has been under martial law. Now if you want to enter or exit the city gate, you need to provide documents.

, if not, you can’t enter the city again!”

"Martial law?"

Upon hearing these two words, everyone was shocked.

No wonder they had been standing on the roadside for so long and saw almost no pedestrians. It turned out that Luoyang City had been under martial law.

Yu Wenye immediately stretched out his hand to lift the curtain and looked at the soldier: "Why the martial law?"

The soldiers guarding the city all recognized him. When they saw the second son of Sheng Guogong, they were startled and said hurriedly: "Master Yuwen - you, why are you outside the city?"

Yu Wenye said calmly: "I don't need to explain my whereabouts to you."

The soldiers looked at each other and their expressions darkened.

The leading soldier said: "Haha, I'm afraid I need you, Mr. Yuwen, to explain this. Mr. Yuwen was just ordered to return to Luoyang a few days ago. He went outside the city for no reason. Could it be that there is some secret?"

Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi, who had been sitting silently in the carriage, also frowned.

This time the emperor recalled all the families of the generals sent to western Liaoning to the eastern capital just to control them, and he would definitely monitor the whereabouts of these people. Now that he saw a group of them leaving the city and going back for no reason, it was inevitable that they would cause trouble.

Twisted.

Sure enough, Yu Wenye's face darkened.

He thought for a while and said: "I took my people out of the city to hunt."

The soldier said: "Hunting? Where is the prey?"

Yu Wenye winked at Mu Xian, who immediately jumped out of the car, walked to the back of the carriage and opened the curtain. It turned out that there was a small partition behind the carriage, and there were a deer and seven or eight deer piled on it.

Hare and two golden pheasants.

It turned out that although they chased the Shen couple yesterday, Yu Wenye specifically asked the two attendants who stayed outside the city to guard the carriage to hunt something overnight. Although it may not be useful, it was just in case.

Unexpectedly, it was used at this moment.

The soldier took a look, then looked at the people around him, and said, "It took so many people to hunt these things?"

Mu Xian said coldly: "How about you take action and open my eyes?"

The soldier was stunned by his words and didn't have much to say. He just said: "Please forgive me. Although you are out of the city for hunting, the order given to us by the superiors is that no one can enter without a document and no one can leave. Please also

Mr. Yuwen, please forgive me."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces showed anger.

They just went out to hunt in the city, where did they get the documents? Wouldn't this leave them with nowhere to go or retreat?

Mu Xian immediately became angry. He grabbed the soldier by his collar and said, "You're looking for a beating, right?"

As soon as he made a move, the soldiers around him became anxious and immediately rushed over with their swords drawn. Yu Wenye's men also took action no matter how angry they were.

Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, suddenly, a voice that was neither high nor low, with a sweet and charming voice floated over——

"You all stop."

Upon hearing this voice, others did not react, but Shang Ruyi, who was sitting in the carriage, stiffened all over, and the two hands on his knees immediately grasped the corners of his clothes convulsively.

This sound is——
