The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 464 Assassination ([-])

Earlier, Yun Chan and Shuang Ruo were sent to the Yonghe Palace where Lin Lan lived to warm up Mrs. Tang.

Thinking that this place is not far from the Yonghe Palace, after parting from her nobleman, Wanyu walked along the path all the way to the Yonghe Palace.

This road was originally brightly illuminated by palace lanterns, but for some reason today, only a few palace lanterns were lit. If it wasn't for the light being broken by the snow all over the ground, I might not even be able to see the road under my feet clearly.

The snowy night always makes everything quiet, even the slightest movement can be heard.

For some reason, Wanyu always felt the rustling sound of someone stepping on the soft snow behind her, but when she looked back, it was full of the vast night that swallowed everything.

On such a night, not to mention the coldness, there is not even a person on the path, which is always frightening.

Wan Yu unconsciously tightened her pace, but before she had traveled far, she heard a 'crack' sound clearly.

That sound must have been the sound of wood cracking when someone stepped on a dead branch and broke it.

She clutched her chest, turned her head suddenly, and boldly asked in a solemn voice, "Who is where?"

A sound fell, only my own echo echoed in my ears.

Full of suspicion, Wan Yu ran towards the Yonghe Palace almost as if her feet were blown by the wind.

But at this time, there was a man panting suddenly from behind him, he glanced at the shadows surrounded by the few remaining palace lanterns, and saw behind him a black shadow stretched infinitely by the palace lanterns, stabbing him with a sharp dagger-like object .

She cried out in shock, and suddenly felt warmth behind her, as if someone was standing against her back, she could even hear the person's heavy breathing.

Turning around suddenly, she saw that the person standing in front of her was Shen Ye who came out of nowhere.

And in front of the two of them, there was a man in night clothes with a black veil covering his face.

The dagger pierced three points into Shen Ye's chest impartially.

Shen Ye grabbed the man's knife-holding hand with one hand, and punched the man's collarbone forcefully with the other hand.

Immediately, the sound of bone cracking came, and the masked man screamed in pain, covering his shoulder blades and frowning, Wan Yu woke up and shouted: "Come here! There is an assassin! Lord Shen, are you okay?"

Shen Ye's body was weak, and he gradually fell backwards. Wan Yu put her hands on his shoulder blades to support him, only to see that the dagger was still stuck in his chest, and there were bloodstains spreading out.

She was so anxious that she lost her composure, took out a silk cloth and wiped the blood: "What should I do? You have lost a lot of blood!"

Shen Ye's complexion was slightly pale, but she looked at Wanyu with a meaningless smile, shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, I'm fine."

Such a brief conversation was taken advantage of by the thief.

Although the man's collarbone was severed by Shen Ye, it can be seen that Shen Ye was seriously injured and fell to the ground, and Wanyu is a weak woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken, but she hurried towards Wanyu again.

Shen Ye got up to protect him, but when he moved a little, the dagger on his chest penetrated a little bit more, and the pain made him feel powerless.

Wannai didn't know where the courage came from, but she walked up to Shen Ye, opened her arms, and protected her behind her: "Who are you?"

The man didn't answer, he suddenly raised his right hand in the shape of a tiger's mouth, pinching Wanyu's throat.

Shen Ye struggled with him with the rest of his strength, but he kicked the man more than ten feet away.

The man was paralyzed on the ground, bleeding profusely, still crawling forward in the snow, whispering in his mouth: "The thief will release your mother quickly, if you have the ability, just come at me!"

But that man clearly came here to take Wan Lai's life, so how could he get more involved with Shen Ye?
Wanyu's face turned red, and her whole life was suspended in the air by the man's throat locked by one arm.

She struggled with all her strength and pressed on the man's broken collarbone.

But even though the man was in pain, he just yelled in a muffled voice, without any intention of letting go.

At the critical moment, Wanyu suddenly saw a white shadow flashing behind the man at a very fast speed, and when she focused her eyes again, she saw that the nobleman had already arrived behind the man, and she slapped the man's neck horizontally, causing the man to lose strength instantly Only then did Wanyu get out of trouble, fell to the ground and coughed again and again.

The man clutched the back of his neck, regained his composure and stared ferociously at his nobleman, but the strange thing was that his nobleman was not afraid at all, but asked sternly, "Where did the disciple come from! How dare you assassinate the emperor's favorite concubine!"

The man waved his hand and punched the nobleman in the face. The nobleman turned sideways, grabbed his forearm and bent it hard, and kicked the man hard on the knee when he was not prepared. kick.

How hard are the bottoms of the flowerpots used by concubines?With this kick, the man knelt down immediately, and was firmly suppressed by his nobleman: "I'm afraid you don't know that my Mongolian women can go to battle in armor!" After saying that, he looked at Wannai anxiously, and asked: " Is Concubine Wan all right?"

Wanyu shook her head and said thank you, she struggled to get up and moved to the side of Shen Ye who was lying on the ground, Shen Ye's breath gradually weakened, but she looked at him tenderly, and said in a soft voice: "It's fine if there's nothing wrong with your mother."

Then, he passed out and there was no more movement.

"Shen Ye! Wake up!" Wan Yu shook Shen Ye's body desperately, and felt something wrong with the wooden frame in her eyes, and quickly persuaded: "Mother, the man was seriously injured and the dagger was still stuck in his chest. , if you do this, I'm afraid it will be even more disadvantageous to him!"

After such a big commotion, the guards on night patrol arrived late, and everyone was startled when they saw the situation, and they only listened to Wan Lai's order: "Send Mr. Shen to the doctor quickly, and then take down the thief and keep him alive." !"

Later, Shuang Ruo and Yun Chan came to find out that such a big thing happened.Seeing that there was blood stasis between Wanyu's neck, she moved her to the Yonghe Palace nearby, and invited the imperial physician to come to see her.

When the emperor rushed over, he didn't care about other things, hurried to Wanyu's bed, held his hand and asked, "Are you all right? You're going to scare me to death."

Wan Yu was still in shock, shaking her head and said: "The concubine is fine, but thanks to the guard Shen and his nobles."

Only then did the emperor see with his eyes that Yuan Qimuge was also in the hall, standing side by side with Lin Lan.

"How are you?"

This sentence is indifferent and cold, and the wooden frame is also cold in return: "The concubine is fine, the imperial concubine is frightened, I have to rest, and the concubine will come to see you some day."

After saying that, he didn't even salute the emperor, so he just left.

The emperor knew her temperament well, she was a bit delicate when she first entered the palace, but she became more and more fierce as time passed.

So he didn't care about it, and only cared about greeting Wanyu: "How could there be an assassin in such a beautiful palace?"

Lin Lan was so annoyed that she took the lead to answer the emperor's words: "What do you think the emperor can do? This matter is aimed at the concubine Wan. Who else in the palace would do something like this to the concubine Wan?" thought?"

Although the words are radical, they are not without reason.

Seeing that the emperor's face was cloudy and cloudy, Wan Lai knew that he was suspicious of Rong Yue.

Just when he was about to reply, it was Liang Jiugong who hastily asked An to come in outside the palace, kneeling down and reporting embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, something happened in Chengqian Palace!"

The emperor looked at him coldly: "What's the matter?"

"The imperial concubine... was assassinated!"
