Chapter 785 There are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me

After the three women's explanation, Yunzheng finally understood the situation.

In fact, they did not collide head-on with the ambush.

When they walked near the enemy's ambush, the explorers keenly realized that it was a good place to set up an ambush, and immediately took people to check it out.

When they approached, the opponent had just retreated, and the traces on the ground were all fresh.

Their people immediately caught up and saw only a few figures lagging behind. They could still vaguely see those people holding powerful crossbows. They should be very well-equipped.

The gang retreated very decisively, and their men were ultimately unable to catch up.

Judging from the lurking traces left at the scene, it is estimated that there were about a hundred people setting up the ambush, and they must be well-trained people.

It was not convenient for Shen Luoyan to talk about this matter in front of the servants of the palace before, so he lied and said that he didn't encounter anything on the way.

"Strong Crossbow?"

Yunzheng frowned, "It looks like they are really my brothers in the Imperial City!"

Daqian Dynasty did not control bows and arrows, but it could control crossbows.

Most people can't get a powerful crossbow at all.

However, if you were a prince, it would be easy to get a powerful crossbow.

"should be."

Miaoyin nodded lightly, "This group of people is very cautious. It is obvious that they have been ambushing there for a long time. But after seeing our large group of people from a distance, they immediately chose to escape without any delay."

This extraordinary caution is completely in line with the behavior of the mastermind who is making trouble in the dark.

"This bastard is really evil!"

Yun Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, but his heart was filled with murderous intent.

Which one of his brothers was the mastermind?

But that person obviously thought of him too kindly!

If something happens to his wife and children, and if we can't find out who is causing trouble, none of his brothers will survive!

Ye Zi pondered for a moment, frowned and said, "Have you told the servants of the palace in advance that we are coming here?"

"Do you suspect there is an informant in this house?" Yunzheng immediately understood what Ye Zi meant.

"It's just a suspicion, but it's hard to be sure."

Ye Zi said: "After all, we have passed many places along the way. Even if the passers-by don't see us, they can guess our identities just by looking at our formation..."

They walked very slowly, which gave enough time to inform those who guessed their identity, and also allowed those who set up an ambush to be fully prepared.

"They only knew you were coming yesterday. If they had informed you in time, their accomplices would have had time to set up an ambush."

Yunzheng thought: "However, with so many people watching the house, and my personal guards patrolling everywhere at all times, they basically have no chance to tip off their accomplices..."

When he left Sifang County and returned to Dingbei, Yun Zheng also left people to secretly monitor the servants of the palace.

But no one was found to be abnormal at all.

If the palace really has an spy, that person must be hiding it very deeply.

Damn it!

There are so many people who miss themselves!

He was thinking about whether to replace all the servants in the palace.

These servants were all arranged before his wedding. It would be too easy for someone to plant spies among them.

We must first ensure everyone's safety, especially Ye Zi, who is pregnant, and Yun Cang, who has no resistance at all.

Anyway, Shen Luoyan and the others also brought some servants from Dingbei with them this time. Although not many, they were enough to handle the daily affairs of the palace.

After thinking for a while, Yun Zheng ordered Yu Fu to call over: "The princess said, we don't live here often, so it's not good to have so many servants in the palace! In this way, you can choose from the previous servants in the palace. Keep the five smart ones, and give the rest five taels of silver each, and send them all away!"

There are fewer people left, making it easier to monitor.

There used to be so many servants, and it was really difficult to monitor them all.

Yu Fu was stunned. When he came to his senses, he quickly asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, are we really going to keep only five? Do you want to keep a few more people?"

"It's no use leaving too much."

Yun Zheng shook his head and said: "We will stay in the house for a short time this time. From now on, the house will be empty most of the time. Just have a few people to clean the house."

When Yu Fu heard this, he quickly bowed and said, "I would like to thank the prince for his kindness on their behalf!"

Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "Don't thank me, the king. If you want to thank me, just thank the princess!"

"Thank you, Princess!"

Yu Fu quickly saluted Shen Luoyan again.

"It's okay."

Shen Luoyan smiled in agreement, "You have to give all the money to those who have been dismissed. Don't let others say that the prince is stingy."

Yu Ful nodded repeatedly and bowed to leave.

Looking at Yu Fu's leaving figure, Yun Zheng couldn't help but think secretly.

According to the plots of those bloody TV series in previous lives, Yu Fu is probably the old man behind Black Crow and White Crow, right?

Depend on!

It's not really that bloody, is it?

"What are you thinking about?"

Ye Zi looked at Yunzheng who was lost in thought in confusion.

Yun Zheng smacked his lips, "I'm wondering if Yu Fu is the old man?"

"..."

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, the three women were speechless at the same time.

Although, Yun Zheng's guess is not impossible.

But it's really unlikely.

Since the other party was so cautious, he must have guessed that Yun Zheng would carefully investigate these people who hold important responsibilities in the palace, and it should be impossible for the "old man" to be sent to Yun Zheng.

"Do you now look at anyone who doesn't know anything like an old man?"

Miaoyin couldn't help but tease Yunzheng.

"Don't say it, it really means that."

Yun Zheng had a headache, "Others say that the more powerful a person is, the more suspicious they are! I didn't understand it before, but I finally understand it now."

He now has the feeling that "there are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me."

This feeling is very bad.

Even if he knew it was wrong, he still couldn't help but doubt this or that.

For example, to Ji Ran.

Since Ji Ran's background is obviously very clean, he doubts Ji Ran because Ji Ran's background is too clean.

There is no longer the same trust that I had with Chen Bu and others.

He didn't know whether he was being too cautious or a little obsessed.

"There's nothing you can do about it."

Ye Zi smiled helplessly, "Now there are people who expect you to rebel, and there are people who don't want you to rebel. There are too many people watching you. If you are not careful, in such a whirlpool, there may not even be any bones left. !”

"Correct!"

Shen Luoyan nodded lightly, "It's also a good thing to be cautious. Just like us this time, if we weren't cautious enough, we might have been ambushed by those people."

Thinking about it carefully, Shen Luoyan was actually a little scared.

If she was ambushed, she wouldn't care, but Yun Cang and Ye Zi were prone to trouble.

"Okay, don't think about it now."

Yun Zheng shook his head slightly and said with stern eyes: "Unless the man behind the scenes stops moving in the future, I will definitely find him out!"
