After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 147: Investigation

"It's too late to realize you were wrong now!"

After saying this, Lin Rusi turned her head away, but her heart was filled with happiness.

She knew that this man only had eyes for her.

"Sisi, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time."

Li Jingyang also tried his best to cooperate with Lin Rusi.

He deliberately made all sorts of exaggerated expressions on his face, just to make Lin Rusi happy.

This method was very helpful to Lin Rusi, and she finally smiled.

"Alright, this kind of artifact is too ugly to make. You're not allowed to make it again."

Lin Rusi couldn't help but complain at this moment, but Li Jingyang didn't care.

Both of them were immersed in happiness, feeling that such days were simply too wonderful for them.

I wish things could stay this way forever.

"It's getting late, we'd better get up quickly..."

Before Lin Rusi could finish speaking, the two of them felt a strong shaking.

Then it dawned on them that the two of them were still on the boat.

"How is this going?"

Lin Rusi also felt something was strange and was about to go out to take a look, but Li Jingyang pulled her back.

"Danger!"

"Wanqi and Wanxia are still outside. I'll go see what's going on."

After saying this, Lin Rusi broke free from Li Jingyang's hands.

The two of them changed their clothes quickly before going out.

The two girls looked at them with serious expressions.

"How is this going?"

Li Jingyang's expression was somewhat solemn, as he had already deployed many hidden guards around the area.

They will also be the first to notice any problems that arise.

The two girls were a little nervous.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, our men spotted assassins in the water, which caused the commotion just now. However, these people are highly skilled in martial arts, and they escaped before we even noticed them."

After Wanxia finished speaking, she also felt a little nervous.

"In the water?"

Lin Rusi found it very strange upon hearing this.

If they came to assassinate Li Jingyang, it would be normal for them to sneak in from the water. So why did they leave so quickly?

"That's right, we've already sent people to track it down, but we don't know what's going on."

Now that we're only in the middle of the lake, escaping from here won't be so easy.

If we don't come up with a solution quickly, it will be troublesome when those assassins return.

Even if Li Jingyang's martial arts skills are not bad, protecting so many people is not an easy task.

"It seems these people really came prepared. You should quickly check the hull. If they were really after me, why would they leave so easily?"

Everyone agreed that this made sense, and that's why the alliance went down to investigate.

"What do you mean by this?" Lin Rusi asked, feeling that she didn't quite understand the matter either.

"I guess the reason they dived into the water and made such a big commotion just now is that they wanted to drill a hole in the ship and cause it to sink."

Thinking about this, both of them felt a little worried.

If this plan succeeds, their current situation will be extremely dangerous.

Moreover, they left no evidence. If the two of them really die here today, there will be no way to prove it.

Everyone would assume it was just an accident.

"This……"

"Your Highness, let me go into the water and take a look." Wanqi was a good swimmer, so she offered to go, and Li Jingyang did not refuse.

After the two men went down to inspect the boat, they indeed found a large hole in the bottom.

It seems that it was caused by those assassins.

Realizing what had happened, the two felt helpless and could only quickly return to the ship.

Then I told Li Jingyang about it.

"Sure enough!"

Upon hearing this, Wanqi felt a little guilty.

The two girls then knelt before Li Jingyang.

"It's all my fault for failing to protect the princess properly, which allowed these assassins to take advantage of the situation. I beg Your Highness to punish me."

After Wanqi finished speaking, she realized that Li Jingyang was not an unreasonable person.

I also know that this matter cannot be blamed on the two of them.

If these people really did dive in from the water, it wouldn't be easy to detect them. Although the two girls know martial arts, they aren't that skilled.

Only then were the two allowed to get up.

"This is not your fault. Now, find a way to fix this hole in the transmission system immediately, or we will all die here."

Li Jingyang's expression was solemn.

These two sisters are the best swimmers here, and now the two of them can only place their hopes on them.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the two girls also felt that it was their inescapable responsibility.

Without thinking twice, he jumped into the water.

"Why did this happen?" Lin Rusi also felt uneasy.

Everything was so wonderful yesterday, why was it ruined so quickly?

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, no one can hurt you."

Some of the maids and workers on the ship were worried.

"Your Highness, perhaps we should try to leave the ship first. Otherwise, if the inheritance is passed on, everything will be over."

Upon hearing this, Li Jingyang knew that they were now in the middle of the lake.

If he were alone, it wouldn't be too difficult to escape back to shore using his light-footed skills, but Lin Rusi is with him now.

These assassins must not have gone far. Once I disembark, they might come back to hunt me down.

After thinking about this, his expression became somewhat serious.

"No, you people don't need to be in such a hurry. I've already arranged for people to fix the vulnerabilities down there, and I don't think there will be any problems with this."

After hearing this, everyone was still a little nervous, but since the prince had said so, they could only wait patiently.

"Who exactly are these people? I've been holding my breath underwater for so long, I think someone must have arranged this."

After thinking about this, Lin Rusi felt a little scared.

“You’re right. I will investigate this matter thoroughly when we get back.”

Li Jingyang spoke coldly.

In this capital city, there are only a few people who would want to harm me.

If we start investigating these people, we'll eventually get results.

At this moment, Wanqi also went into the water and found that the hole in the boat was not too big, and it was possible to repair it.

Wanxia, ​​who was keeping watch, noticed that the assassin who had just left had returned.

The two sisters were a little scared, since neither of them was good at fighting in the water.

Now I'm trying my best to make amends.

Unexpectedly, they were no match for these assassins and were defeated in a short time.

The two men looked at each other, wanting to fight these people to the death.

But they were no match for them at all!
