MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 627 Let's split up
Mo Lingwei pondered for a moment and asked Mr. Cui: "How many people are there in the nursing home I asked you to prepare earlier?"
"Including those from the main office and other residences, there are a total of eighty people who can be mobilized."
eighty…
Hourin guards are not bodyguards or secret guards, most of them are just mature men who know some ordinary boxing and kicking skills.
Cangyun State has clear regulations that merchants like Mr. Cui, no matter how big their business is, cannot have a large number of guards to avoid suspicion of rebellion.
Er Master Cui can gather 80 nursing staff, which is already very good.
It's a pity that most of the guards' skills are average and cannot be compared with ordinary guards.
“It’s enough to deal with it for a few days,” Mo Ling said dangerously.
Fortunately, he made arrangements early, and Mr. Cui was already fully prepared.
Mo Lingwei asked Mr. Cui to transfer all the nursing homes to Cui Mansion.
While Mr. Cui went out to do errands, Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei both changed into a set of clean clothes. When they came just now, even if they were wearing raincoats, they were already soaked through.
"Is it cold?" Mo Lingwei rubbed Shen Ningning's small white hands repeatedly, his eyebrows furrowed with concern.
"It's not cold." Although Shen Ningning said this, Mo Lingwei was still worried.
He pushed her to sit on the bed, pulled the quilt and wrapped her tightly around her body, and brought her hot tea for her to hold.
Shen Ningning's fair and flawless face couldn't help but reveal a smile.
“I’m not a porcelain doll, why are you so nervous?”
"Of course I'm afraid that you will fall ill at this time and your fairyland will no longer be usable. If something happens to you at this time, I'm afraid..." Before Mo Lingwei could finish his words, his brows were already deeply furrowed.
Shen Ningning understood what he meant.
The situation is too chaotic, and the enemy is hiding in the dark. They don't know his location for the time being, and the danger is like a sharp sword hanging above his head, which may fall at any time.
Shen Ningning's expression paled, and she took the initiative to hold Mo Lingwei's hand.
“Brother, I am not afraid and nothing will happen to me, because I know that when you face it with me, I will not be alone.”
Mo Lingwei was startled, and a smile escaped from his thin lips: "Of course."
As he spoke, his eyes gradually became dark and firm: "I will be by your side at any time."
Shen Ningning walked to the window and looked at the pouring rain outside.
In fact, what she is really worried about now is whether the black eagle will come as promised.
If she can get the Mingguang Heart before Tian Xuezhen, everything will be easy.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the yard, and the secret guards suddenly appeared and gathered at the door.
Mo Lingwei asked across the door: "What happened?"
At the entrance of the courtyard, Mr. Cui was blocking the officers and soldiers wearing raincoats. The two parties were noisy.
The secret guards listened for a moment, then turned back to the room and said: "Your Highness, listen to the officers and soldiers, they seem to be here to arrest someone."
"Arrests?"
"Yes, they said that the Ren family sued the government, saying that the princess pushed the second Miss Ren into the water, causing the second Miss Ren to drown. There was also evidence from Ren Er's maid. The officers and soldiers came to take the princess to the Yamen to cooperate. Investigate this matter.”
Mo Lingwei frowned: "That's ridiculous! It's so lawless. How dare you be charged with such a crime?"
Shen Ningning’s white face was blank.
She didn’t know when Ren Er died, so why was he still involved with her?
Without thinking, you can guess that this is Prefect Ren’s trick.
He must have found out that Shen Ningning and the others had left Ren Mansion, so he sent people to Cui Mansion to ask for people. They were also afraid of a conflict, because they didn't know how weak Shen Ningning was, so they came to test.
Mo Lingwei turned to Shen Ningning and said, "You leave from the window now, and I'll have someone take you out of here first." "Escape?" Shen Ningning remained motionless, raising her watery eyes to look at him: " Tian Xuezhen must have been advising Governor Ren behind the scenes. He forcibly opened the protection system, which affected the help that Fairyland gave me, but he was not sure what the extent of the protection system was, so they must have done this as a test."
As he said that, Shen Ningning smiled bitterly: "If I leave, it will prove that I am afraid. Then they will unscrupulously hurt the people around us."
Under Mo Lingwei's sword-shaped eyebrows, his thin eyes were thick and dark: "Then I will no longer hide my identity and tell them that I am the prince. Anyone who dares to touch me will be executed!"
He waved his sleeves and his momentum was thunderous.
But Shen Ningning stepped forward and pressed his hand.
"Don't be like this," the girl's eyes were bright and moving: "Lingshan City is blocked from all sides. It is no different from a dead city. Before your soldiers come in, brother, don't act rashly."
lest they encounter something more difficult.
Mo Lingwei frowned and saw Shen Ningning put on a thin cloak: "Are you going to go to the government with them?"
"I have to go, and only after I go do I know who is behind the scenes, and that person will definitely be watching from the dark." Shen Ningning said, raising her head slightly, her beautiful eyes full of sharpness.
She said and turned to tell Mo Lingwei.
"The target of this group of people is now on me. The patrols on the Tianshan Mountains will inevitably be weakened. Brother, please send people to the Tianshan Mountains to look for snow lotus at this time, but be sure to pay attention to safety."
I heard from Black Eagle that the location where the snow lotus grows happens to be on the topmost cliff.
The secret guards may not be able to go up smoothly.
Mo Lingwei nodded: "I will leave these matters to Mr. Cui, and then I will accompany you to the government office."
Shen Ningning decisively refused.
"Brother, you have to stay. I am controlled by these people. They have no time to target you for the time being. This is the best time for you to save us. You still have a lot to do. You can't always follow me. around."
Of course Mo Lingwei also knew this.
Shen Ningning understood that as the prince, he could only do many things.
General Peng's old department needs him to recruit and negotiate, and he has to take advantage of this time to travel around.
Mo Lingwei planned to have some of his men disguise themselves as guards under Prefect Ren, so that he could successfully open the city gate and let his personal guards into the city.
If Mo Lingwei just followed Shen Ningning, it would be a dead end.
Both of them understand that only by working together and protecting each other can they survive the crisis.
Mo Lingwei thought about it and suddenly took off the jade pendant from his neck and hung it around Shen Ningning's neck.
"What's this?"
"It is a relic left by my mother. When I was born, there was an ominous legend. She knelt a thousand steps in front of the Buddha for me. She sincerely asked for it for me. I always wear it close to my body and rarely take it off. Consider it my protective talisman, and now, I hope it will protect you."
Shen Ningning immediately wanted to take it off: "It's so expensive, I can't take it. You should wear it, your safety is more important."
Mo Lingwei held her hand tightly.
"You are important, Shen Ningning. You are the most important person to me. Your safety is related to my life. As long as nothing happens to you, I will be fine."
His black eyes flickered, and Shen Ningning looked at him blankly.
At the door, the fierce shouts of officers and soldiers could be heard.
Shen Ningning wore the jade pendant close to her body and put it into her lapel.
"I will be fine, and you will be fine too." After she finished speaking, she turned around and opened the door.
At that moment, there was a thunder outside, and purple lightning flashed across the sky.
Sharp colors illuminate the darkness in the girl's eyes.
“I’ll go with you to the government office.”
