The Empress is running again

Chapter 358 Where did he go

"There are assassins, protect the nobleman!"

The pedestrians who were walking on both sides suddenly drew their swords and came forward to fight with the guards.

Rong Jiuyue jumped out of the car and pushed Ning Xin to the ground.

"Are you OK?"

"Slave is fine, nobleman be careful."

Rong Jiuyue took out a dagger from his waist and stuffed it into her hand.

"Be careful yourself."

"Yes."

"Your Excellency, come down with your subordinates."

Two guards stepped forward and led Rong Jiuyue into an alley.

"My lord, the assassin has been captured."

Before the guards took Rong Jiuyue away, the assassins were defeated.

The combat power is really weak enough.

Of the ten assassins, three died, two escaped, and the rest were captured.

"Go back to the palace first."

"Yes."

The guards escorted Rong Jiuyue back to the palace quickly.

As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Yun Xing waiting at the gate of the palace.

"My lord, I will take care of the matter of the assassin, so you don't have to worry about it."

Rong Jiuyue nodded subconsciously for a moment. "Then Lao Yun will be in command."

Yunxing nodded and stepped aside.

"The nobleman should be more careful these days, it's better to stay in Taohua Pavilion if nothing happens."

Yun Xing's words made Rong Jiuyue pause.

Although Yun Xing is someone Quan Yin trusts, he is a foreign minister. It is too rude to say this.

Rong Jiuyue paused slightly, and glanced sideways at him.

Yun Xing lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in them.

"The subordinate retire."

Rong Jiuyue returned to Taohua Pavilion, but she always felt that something was missing.

But for a while, I couldn't think of what was missing, so I left it behind.

In the evening, Rong Jiuyue made soup for Quan Yin himself.

"You can send the medicinal soup to the emperor in a while, and leave it to Guixi."

"Yes."

Rong Jiuyue asked Hao Tiantian to prepare hot water for a bath.

When she sank her body in the water, she realized why she felt strange.

Every time she met an assassin when she left the palace, Quan Yin would come to see her immediately, but today... only Yun Xing waited until the gate of the palace.

Although it can be explained by him being busy, but... I always feel that something is not quite right.

After bathing, Ning Xin also came back.

"Has the soup been delivered?"

"Yes, the slaves have already been sent, but..."

Rong Jiuyue wiped her hair with a brocade handkerchief. "But what?"

"Eunuch Guixi said that the emperor said that the nobleman does not need to send someone to deliver soup these days. It is cold, and the emperor is afraid that the nobleman will be damaged by freezing."

"No need to send it away..."

Rong Jiuyue paused for a moment.

Guixi's words sounded right at first glance, but after thinking about it, she felt something was wrong.

Quan Yin was afraid of freezing her, but he was not the one who delivered the soup now.

"Eunuch Guixi, can you tell me what the emperor is doing now?"

"Eunuch Guixi said that the emperor is still dealing with political affairs."

Rong Jiuyue frowned slightly. "Ning Xin, just go to Wenlongju and say..."

Ning Xin listened sideways, and looked at Rong Jiuyue with some surprise after listening.

"My lord, the emperor has state affairs to attend to..."

"Only this time, you go quickly."

Ning Xin saw that Rong Jiuyue didn't intend to change her mind, so she could only do what she said.

Ning Xin braved the cold wind and ran all the way to Wenlongjuwai.

"Guixi's father-in-law is not good, it's not good."

The guards outside the door saw that Ning Xin looked familiar, and rushed in to pass on a message to Guixi, who quickly followed.

"Yo, Miss Ning Xin, what's wrong with you running so fast?"

Ning Xin's little face was flushed by the blow, and she looked at Guixi anxiously and said: "Guixi's father-in-law is not well, our nobleman, our nobleman was injured by a servant today, and now he passed out to death, please Father-in-law uploaded a message to the emperor, let the emperor go and have a look."

Gui Xi was taken aback for a moment, and a look of panic flashed quickly in his eyes.

"This...you wait for this, you go back and ask the imperial physician first, and I will send a message to the emperor right away."

"Yes Yes."

After seeing Guixi leave, Ning Xin also turned around and ran back to Peach Blossom Pavilion.

"My lord, this slave has already told Eunuch Guixi."

"Ah."

In less than two quarters of an hour, Imperial Physician Bai arrived at Taohua Pavilion in a cold body.

Ning Xin subconsciously looked behind Imperial Physician Bai.

"What's the matter with the nobleman, hurry up and take the old man in to have a look."

Ning Xin hesitated for a moment, then brought Doctor Bai into the inner room.

Rong Jiuyue lay on the bed with her eyes closed.

Doctor Bai stepped forward to check her pulse.

Ning Xin gradually tightened her hands in her sleeves, fearing that Rong Jiuyue would reveal her secrets, which was a crime of bullying the emperor.

Even if the emperor loves the nobleman and doesn't pursue it, spreading the word will damage the nobleman's reputation.

Doctor Bai watched for a long time before letting go.

"The nobleman's health is fine, I'm afraid it's because of the fright today. The old man prescribed two medicines for the nobleman, and you'll be fine after taking it."

When Ning Xin heard this, she felt relieved.

"Then there is Dr. Lawrence."

"No need."

Until Doctor Bai left, Quan Yin didn't show up.

Ning Xin closed the door and walked to the bed.

"My lord, the emperor hasn't come yet."

Rong Jiuyue slowly opened her eyes and sat up from the bed.

"I see, you go down and rest."

"Yes, the slaves retire."

Rong Jiuyue lay on the bed, fingertips crossed and tapped lightly.

After the bang sounded in the middle of the night, she stood up, changed into a maid's uniform, and walked out through the back door of Taohua Pavilion.

The palace is almost deserted at night in winter, except for patrolling people passing by from time to time.

Avoiding all the patrolling people, Rong Jiuyue arrived at Wenlongjuwai.

Wenlongju, which was sunk in the darkness, was awe-inspiring. Even if he didn't get close, Rong Jiuyue could feel that it was heavily guarded.

There are not only guards around Wenlongju, but there must also be many hidden guards hidden. It may not be that easy for her to sneak in.

While waiting, Rong Jiuyue saw Yunxing coming out of it.

Rong Jiuyue focused slightly, and finally followed.

Yun Xing walked on the palace road, and walked around a long corridor in a blink of an eye.

Rong Jiuyue quickly caught up, and just as she was about to go around the corridor, a gust of palm wind hit her.

Rong Jiuyue paused and quickly backed away.

"who!"

Yun Xing sank his face forward.

"it's me."

Rong Jiuyue looked up at him.

Yun Xing paused for the moves in his hands, and was slightly taken aback when he saw Rong Jiuyue's face illuminated by the moonlight.

"Why is nobleman Bai here?"

Seeing no one around, Rong Jiuyue took Yun Xing to a hidden side hall.

Yun Xing frowned slightly, with doubts in his eyes.

"Why is this nobleman Bai?"

Rong Jiuyue looked at Yun Xing and said straight to the point: "Where has the Emperor gone?"

Yun Xing was stunned, she didn't expect Rong Jiuyue to ask such a question.

However, he was stunned for only a moment, and he quickly returned to normal color.

"The lower official doesn't know what Bai Guiren means by this. The lower official was discussing political affairs with the emperor in Wenlongju just now. The emperor is naturally in Wenlongju."

Rong Jiuyue pursed her lips. "Impossible, the emperor must not be in the palace."

"Bai Guiren, please don't make wild guesses. The emperor is busy with political affairs now, so naturally he can't go to the harem often. I have something to do, so I leave."

"wait!"
