Chapter 129: Guardian
Yan Moying understood what Yin Ruchen meant, but the self-blame in his heart did not subside. However, he knew that no matter what he said at this time, the things that were unfavorable to Yin Ruchen had already happened. What he could do now was to investigate the matter thoroughly and help Yin Ruchen clear his name.
He asked Yin Ruchen: "Is Ding Dadi, who has no wound on his right shoulder, really the assassin at night? Do you remember it clearly?"
"Yes! It's really strange! I clearly stabbed his right shoulder, but there is not even a scar!" Yin Ruchen said.
"And those officers and soldiers said that he has always been with them. Could it be that they were prepared in advance?" Yan Moying thought about it and found it a little unbelievable.
"What's even stranger is that they don't look like they're lying. If they were trained, that would be amazing!"
"In short, human hearts are hard to predict. No matter what the truth is, Ruchen, you must be careful at all times." Yan Moying advised.
"Yes, I understand." Yin Ruchen nodded in agreement.
When the two of them were not far from the door of Yin Ruchen's secret residence, Yan Moying said, "Ruchen, you didn't get enough rest last night, go and have a good rest!"
"Okay, I'll go." Yin Ruchen was indeed tired, but she walked very slowly, as if the road from where Yan Moying was standing to the door of her residence was very long.
When she reached the door and was about to enter, she turned around and looked at Yan Moying, and found that Yan Moying was still standing there looking at her. It was quiet at this time, no one spoke, he just looked at her quietly, and she also looked at him, until he nodded to her, she turned around and entered.
As soon as Yin Ruchen entered the residence, the guards arranged by King Jingyin to protect her immediately appeared out of nowhere. After greeting Yan Moying, they discussed the position of guard and then took up a position in the dark near Yin Ruchen's secret residence to guard strictly. These were only the guards on the periphery. Even in the secret residence where Yin Ruchen lived, King Jingyin arranged temporary female guards in different places.
Even Yan Moying had never been to this secret residence. He felt that this place and even the road leading to it should be deserted. After dawn, when Yin Ruchen opened the door and walked out, he saw Yan Moying at first sight.
"Mo Ying, you..." Yin Ruchen was a little surprised.
Yan Moying smiled at her and asked her, "Did you have a good rest?"
"I've had a good rest. How about you?" Yin Ruchen asked Yan Moying, "How long have you been standing here?"
Yan Moying said: "Not long either."
A guard suddenly came out for the sake of Yin Ruchen's safety and said to Yin Ruchen: "Guard Yan has been standing here and has not left until dawn."
Yin Ruchen was not surprised by the sudden appearance of the guards who were secretly protecting her, because she knew that this was all arranged by King Jingyin.
"Mo Ying, you didn't go to rest at all?!" Yin Ruchen said.
"I..." Yan Moying didn't know what to say. He didn't rest, not because he didn't trust the confidentiality of the secret residence, nor because he didn't trust the guards. He was confident in both the residence and the guards, but because of what happened before, he was really worried that something unexpected would happen again, and he was worried that he wouldn't be able to be there to help her immediately. He felt at ease standing there guarding, and he guarded until dawn.
