Chapter 131 An Ominous Premonition

Chapter 131 An ominous premonition

Yang Sui's expression changed, and he immediately walked towards the king's tent. After taking two steps, he stopped and looked back at Shang Ruyi, and said with a complicated expression: "Young madam, you should go back quickly. If there is any danger, you can still go back."

Someone protects you."

Shang Ruyi nodded: "Thank you very much."

After saying that, Yang Suiyi had already walked away.

Watching his back disappear into the night, Shang Ruyi hurried back to the camp. Along the way, he saw the Imperial Guards dispatched. The accompanying guards were also on tenterhooks, and the people in the camp were as frightened as birds.

Some ran out without even putting on their clothes.

But, no one knew what happened.

As soon as Shang Ruyi returned to his tent, Tusheer immediately came to greet him: "Miss, are you okay?"

Shang Ruyi shook his head: "I'm fine. What happened over there?"

Mu Xian also stepped forward: "The villain has sent people to the king's tent to find out the news."

Tusheer said: "It can't be an assassin, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

"oh……"

Tusheer stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. He just helped her walk back to the campfire and sat down. Seeing that the tips of her fingers were red from the cold, he hurriedly held her hand and rubbed it again, saying

: "It's so cold outside, Miss, you'd better go back to the tent and sleep."

Seeing the panic expressions on the faces of the people around him, Shang Ruyi said: "How can I sleep? At least, I have to wait until I find out what happened."

Tusheer pouted: "This kind of thing should be dealt with by men."

"..."

"If my uncle is here, why do you need to be so tired?"

When Mu Xian heard this from the side, he turned his face to the side in embarrassment.

Shang Ruyi's heart sank slightly, and the expression on his face illuminated by the flickering firelight also became gloomy.

But she immediately laughed and said, "You're talking nonsense again. Isn't he on his way here now?"

After saying that, he looked up at Mu Xian and said softly: "By the way, have you ever asked where the second group of people is now? Is it coming soon?"

Mu Xian said hurriedly: "I heard that it is already on the way."

"……oh."

After hearing this perfunctory answer, Shang Ruyi knew in his heart that he probably wouldn't be able to wait for Yu Wenye in a short time.

She couldn't help but raise her head and look around again. In addition to the noisy voices and frightened faces, further away, there was an endless grassland that was so dark that she couldn't see the edge. No one knew what was going on.

In this place, there are so many crises hidden in the dark night.

In fact, she always felt in her heart that this tour would not end in a peaceful and happy way.

But now, she needs to face all this by herself.

Although she knew in her heart that in life, she had to rely on herself to get through many things, but sometimes, especially at times like this, she still hoped that there would be someone standing by her side, even if it was just standing here.

At this moment, the people sent by Mu Xian ran back panting.

"Brother,"

As soon as he saw Shang Ruyi, he immediately came forward and bowed to salute: "Young Madam."

Shang Ruyi quickly cheered up, waved his hands and said, "Don't be too polite. What happened over there?"

The man whispered: "The king's tent was overturned by the wind."

"What?!"

Shang Ruyi opened his eyes in surprise, and everyone around him seemed to have heard the news, and they all looked shocked.

Tusheer said in disbelief: "Why, how could it be overturned by the wind?"

The man whispered: "When I set up the tent during the day, I used the iron nails and wooden stakes that were driven in before. They seemed to be intact, but I just discovered that the parts buried underneath had long since rotted. When nothing happened,

Fortunately, if it gets blown by the wind, it won’t be able to hold on anymore.”

Shang Ruyi thought for a while and said hurriedly: "Where is the person? Is something wrong?"

The man said: "I heard that a few of the guardsmen guarding the royal tent were injured, but His Majesty seemed to have gone out by chance. It can be considered that he escaped."

Tusheer immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not bad."

You know, if His Majesty the Emperor were injured on the way out on patrol, that would be a big deal and would immediately cause a shock to the court.

She turned back to Shang Ruyi and said, "Miss, you don't have to worry now. Go back and have a rest. It's already so late."

"..."

Shang Ruyi remained silent for a long time before nodding and was helped back to his tent by her.

Because the brazier was burning, the tent was very warm. But when Shang Ruyi took off the blanket she was wrapped in, she shivered for some reason. Tusheer looked at her lost look and whispered: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

?Why does your face look uglier than before?"

"..."

Shang Ruyi looked solemn and said solemnly: "I always feel that something big is going to happen."

"Something big happened? What big thing?"

"I can't explain this clearly, I just have an ominous premonition."

"Miss, are you saying that the strong wind blew up the king's tent, which is ominous?"

"……Um."

They had just arrived in Shuobei, and on the first day they were stationed, the king's tent was overturned by the wind. Although she had expected such a result when she knew that those people used old iron nails and wooden stakes to build their tents.

But now that the result was in front of her, she didn't feel that "unexpected" luck. Instead, she felt even more uneasy.

Tusheer thought for a moment and said, "Miss, don't worry too much. Aren't there still people from the Imperial Guard? If something big happens again, how big can it be?"

At this point, she felt a little angry: "It's all my uncle's fault. Now he's dead and there's no trace of him."

"..."

"If he were here, he should worry about all these things, so why should you, miss, be worried?"

Shang Ruyi glanced at her and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Putting her own safety, or peace of mind, on others - only then did she understand how unwise this was.

So she waved her hand lightly: "Okay, don't say these useless words, you can go out, I'm going to bed."

Tusheer then exited the tent.

Shang Ruyi lay on the bed, looking at the roof of the tent blankly, looking for a while, and then closed his eyes.

The tent was so quiet that only her breathing remained.

Only...her breath...

Shang Ruyi subconsciously opened her eyes and looked to the opposite side. However, in the direction where she was accustomed to seeing the figure on the couch as soon as she opened her eyes, there was nothing there.

This is not Yuwen Mansion, and there is no Yuwen Ye in front of her.

Where is he now?

Together with this thought, it grew like weeds in her heart. She clearly understood that she could only rely on herself in this situation, but she still hoped that there would be someone by her side, even if she could talk to her, even if...

Share some of her anxiety.

She curled up and buried her face in the quilt.

Drowsily, he whispered softly: "Come quickly..."
