Hearing XuanRong's order, YuShen could not help but react.

"This… XiaoJie… Master An Wei is not here… This servant thinks that XiaoJie should postpone the plan and wait for Master An Wei's return."

XuanRong shook her head.

"An Wei will not arrive until the end of the month. It would be too late for it."

"But… this servant fears that this servant will not be able to protect XiaoJie… This servant's heart is not at ease…. Will XiaoJie reconsider?"

YuShen did not want to defy XuanRong's order but she knew how talented Long Hao Chen's shadow guards were. Based on Shu Si's information, almost all of Long Hao Chen's shadow guards were on par with her. Among XuanRong's maidservants, YuYing was the weakest and YuShang was only on level lower than her. If they would try to sneak in and a.s.sa.s.sinate Long Hao Chen, the probability to succeed was lower than half.

It was basically a suicide!

How could she allow her XiaoJie to be in danger? Thus, even if she did not want to oppose XuanRong's order, YuShen could only voice out her disapproval.

XuanRong knew what YuShen was thinking. Still, she had to move. Her time in dealing Long Hao Chen is running out. It was different with Baili Chen and the others where she could play with them, torture them before killing them.

Dealing with Long Hao Chen and the delegates of Jing Country should be swift and precise. She had already failed in her first attempt and waisted a huge amount of time due to her wedding. She no longer had any time left to spare.

Thus, without any other choice, YuShen and the rest could only obey XuanRong.

Night arrived.

XuanRong was planning to get dressed and leave when Xu Fei Yi's voice echoed outside her room.

"Wife JieJie!! Yi'er wants to sleep now!!"

*baaam!!*

The door was opened and Xu Fei Yi entered the inner room. When he saw XuanRong standing on the bed, he hurriedly walked and lied down.

"Okay! Wife JieJie, come. Let's sleep."

XuanRong dumbly stared at Xu Fei Yi who was smiling at her.
