The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 945: Wedding Banquet Assassination (3)
"Intrigues, it's the situation here that makes people even more unpredictable." Lord Yanling said with a smile on his face.

The two of them practiced Tai Chi for a long time. Seeing that it was almost time for the banquet, Feng Liancheng just glanced at the splendid palaces decorated with palace lanterns outside and said: "Lao Liu and Chu Xinrui are working together now, knowing that That girl is not kind, so she will definitely strike first, are you really so relieved?"

Regardless of Feng Xu, only Chu Xinrui—

She is now at a loss, knowing that there is no turning back with Chu Xunyang, it is not surprising that she will take extraordinary measures to resolve the battle quickly.

"That girl's identity is unknown, and she is here, so she is in a disadvantaged position." Feng Liancheng said, looking sideways at the seat where Princess Xuancheng was, "Your Zhen Guogong's mansion itself is not a safe place. "

The heart of Princess Xuancheng is also well known by passers-by, there is no doubt about it.

After hearing this, Mr. Yanling just smiled calmly. He also looked back at the night outside and pondered for a while, then suddenly asked: "What do you think Fengxu will do tonight?"

Feng Liancheng was taken aback for a moment, before he was about to speak, he heard a servant outside shouting loudly: "The emperor is here! The empress is here!"

Everyone didn't dare to be negligent, Feng Liancheng handed the teacup in his hand to the palace maid passing by, and hurriedly strode ahead to take the courtiers to greet him.

However, the empress and his party had just reached the gate, before they could enter the hall, when they heard someone screaming and screaming in panic from the direction of the square in front of the hall.

"Your Majesty! The Emperor has - there are assassins!"

Everyone was startled, and immediately became vigilant, and the guards guarding outside the main hall rushed forward with swords drawn. In an instant, hundreds of imperial guards surrounded the entire gate.

Emperor Chongming was very calm from the beginning to the end, but frowned slightly in displeasure.

Everyone stood on the steps and looked down, but saw only a guard rushing over from a distance.

The direction the man came from was the harem. He should have experienced a fight before. His helmet was nowhere to be found, his hair was disheveled, and he had several wounds on his body. I fell.

The eunuch next to Emperor Chongming ordered Wenchang to hurry down and asked, "What day is this, you dare to speak nonsense here, what kind of assassin? Where did the assassin come from?"

He waved his hand while speaking.

Immediately, two guards stepped forward, raised the man up, and searched him all over, making sure that he was not carrying a murder weapon before he relaxed his vigilance a little.

Only then did Ling Wenchang step forward, and asked sharply again, "What's going on?"

"It's in Concubine Shu's palace!" said the guard, raising his hand to wipe the blood on his face, "The sixth prince and concubine are changing clothes in Concubine Shu's bedroom, when suddenly some assassins disguised as maids broke in. To assassinate His Highness the Sixth Highness and the concubine."

"What?" Empress Chen was shocked.

It is unheard of for someone to dare to openly break into the palace to assassinate.

When Emperor Chongming heard that his favorite son was in danger, his face turned cold immediately, he quickly walked down the steps, and said coldly, "Where is the sixth son? Is there any damage?"

"This—this—" the guard spoke incoherently anxiously, "The Sixth Highness and the concubine were both restrained by assassins, and the servants surrounded the bedroom of Concubine Shu, and those assassins couldn't escape, so they detained His Highness." , Say yes—say that if you don’t let them leave the palace safely, you will kill His Highness the Sixth Highness and the concubine.”

Emperor Chongming's lips were tensed, his face was livid.

At this time, Feng Liancheng stepped forward from behind and asked, "Where is Concubine Shu? They also restrained her?"

"No!" The guard replied: "The servants didn't see Concubine Shu at the scene, so they don't know if she has been killed, but those assassins are really bold, and the servants dare not make decisions on their own, so they can only be trapped temporarily. Hold on, come here and ask Your Majesty to make a decision."

"Assassin?" Emperor Chongming said in a cold voice after hearing a joke at this time, "Where did the assassin come from? He is so bold to enter the palace to assassinate? How dare you threaten me?"

"The slave doesn't know either." The guard replied with a look of anxiety on his face, "Those women are all very skilled. If there were no archers surrounding the palace of the empress, they might have already escaped from the encirclement. I went out. The slave didn't know what was going on, but those people seemed to be questioning the princess, asking her about the whereabouts of the princess, and saying that if the princess refused to let her go, she would be killed. They were buried with their master."

Everyone else listened in confusion, but only Lord Yanling and Feng Liancheng immediately knew what was going on, but these two were masters of stage play, and they didn't show any clues on their faces.

At this moment, several people hurried over from the square, but it was a few guards who arrived with the housekeeper of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.

"Why are you here?" Zheng Guogong Rong Cheng Yu was greatly surprised and rushed to meet him.

The old butler ran with weak legs, sweating profusely, panting and said: "Master Guo, it's not good, something happened to the mansion, suddenly a large number of men in black appeared half an hour ago Sneaked into our mansion to steal and hurt people, the little one called all the guards to stop them but failed to take them down, our mansion is in chaos now, you should go back and have a look!"

When Rong Chengyu heard the words, he couldn't help but suddenly changed color, and subconsciously raised his foot to follow him, but after thinking about it, he turned his head and looked at Emperor Chongming in embarrassment.

Emperor Chongming naturally had no time to pay attention to him at this time, he had already moved towards the direction of the harem.

Feng Liancheng and the others quickly followed.

The other foreign ministers and wives were not easy to accompany, and they all waited in place worried.

Rong Chengyu grabbed the butler by the collar and said, "It's so good, how could it be a thief? Who are those people?"

Now that there is no outsider in front of him, the housekeeper dared to tell the truth, and he missed it with a guilty conscience. He looked at Lord Yanling behind his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Master Guo, they don't seem to be ordinary thieves. He headed towards the eldest son's courtyard, as if he had kidnapped someone from the eldest son's courtyard."

Rong Chengyu was full of suspicion, and turned to look at Lord Yanling.

Lord Yanling didn't change his face, he just said that the matter was irrelevant: "I, like grandfather, came to the palace in the afternoon, how would I know what happened in the mansion?"

Seeing him like this, Rong Chengyu didn't bother with him too much, so he took the housekeeper and left in a hurry, going back first to deal with the aftermath.

Wang Momo realized something in her heart, and couldn't help holding Princess Xuancheng's hand.

Lord Yanling was present, but Princess Xuancheng didn't say anything, she just helped her back to the palace, leaving Lord Yanling alone on the square in front of the palace.
