Soon after returning to the villa, the guards guarding the gate of the villa saw Chang An and Lin Hai returning safely, and shouted happily: "The Queen and General Lin are back!"
The voice reached Eunuch Lu's ears, and Eunuch Lu hurried to Baixuetang to see Yan Li.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
In a hurry, my foot tripped over the threshold, and with a plop, I fell to the ground, my jaw hit the water-grinding brick, a front tooth fell out, and blood splashed on the ground. When Yan Li saw this, he frowned, thinking it was an ominous sign.
"Eunuch Lu, talk about things slowly, don't be so anxious."
In fact, Yan Li was many times more anxious than Eunuch Lu.
With Yan Li's support, Eunuch Lu stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Your Majesty, Empress Rong is back!"
Yan Li's dim eyes suddenly brightened: "The queen is back? Where is she?"
Eunuch Lu said: "I just arrived at the gate of the villa, and I came back with Lin Hai."
Before Eunuch Lu could finish his words, Yan Li walked out of Snow White Hall like a gust of wind. At the double gate, he saw Rong Changan.
Yan Li's eyebrows were not happy, and he was as strict as a loving father, "Queen, as a queen, why do you take risks alone? If something happens, what should you do?"
If he wasn't too worried about her comfort, Yan Li wouldn't be so strict.
Rong Chang'an pretended to be relaxed and smiled: "My concubine feels very sorry for making the emperor worry. But am I fine now? An assassin can't do anything to me."
Rong Chang'an's skill is indeed superb, but who knows if there is any backstabbing? If an assassin led Rong Changan to the den of thieves, how would Rong Changan deal with it with one enemy
Yan Li's doting eyes caressed Rong Chang'an's beautiful face: "If the queen does this again in the future, I will punish you."
The stricter Yan Li was, the happier Rong Changan was.
"The concubine listens to the emperor, and will never act without authorization in the future. Can the emperor calm down now?"
Rong Changan's playful and relaxed eyes gradually relieved Yan Li's inner tension and worry.
"I'm not joking. If you commit another crime in the future, I will never forgive you lightly."
Rong Chang'an said: "The concubine would like to know, how can the emperor not spare me lightly?"
A smile curled up at the corner of Yan Li's mouth: "Hmph, I always have a way to punish you!" Suddenly, his eyes became gentle, and he looked up and down Rong Changan, "You went after the assassin, did the assassin hurt you? "
Rong Changan pursed his lips, and raised his chin slightly conceitedly: "In Dajing Country, the assassin who can hurt me hasn't been born yet."
Rong Changan turned to Lin Hai, "You go to report Zixuan's safety first, and I will go to see her after I tell the emperor something."
Zixuan is timid, what happened tonight must have made her terrified.
Lin Hai went to Zixuan's yard and told Zixuan that Rong Changan had returned safely.
"Your Majesty, can we go to the White Snow Hall to talk?" Rong Changan's expression suddenly became serious.
Yan Li: "Is it about assassins?"
Rong Changan nodded: "Not bad."
The two came to Baixuetang, and Yan Li ordered Lu Gonggong to bring a pot of tea to quench Rong Changan's thirst first.
Rong Changan drank a cup of tea, called Eunuch Lu out, and closed the door.
Yan Li asked: "Queen, do you know who the person who assassinated you today is?"
Rong Changan shook his head, with a puzzled expression on his face: "The man who assassinated me was very skilled in swordsmanship. I was on equal footing with him. I chased him all the way. He was going to go to Wenchang County, but after he found me, he turned to the suburbs. Later, does the emperor know where he went?"
Yan Li asked, "Where did he go?"
Rong Changan frowned, and she was also full of doubts: "He actually went to the prison camp!"
"Prison City Camp?" Yan Li's sword eyebrows intertwined, "Is this person related to Prison City Camp?"
Rong Changan stood up, walking on the White Snow Hall while thinking.
"He seems to be very familiar with the camp management of the prison camp, but he was wearing a white prison uniform when he entered. This is too weird."
Yan Li was puzzled: "If he is a prisoner in the prison camp, how can he leave the prison camp in the dark? Now that he can leave the prison camp, why go back?"
Rong Changan: "I think so too, it's too weird. Especially the dialogue between the battalion management and the assassin, I can't figure it out."
Yan Li looked at Rong Changan questioningly: "What did they say?"
Rong Changan recalled what he saw and heard in the prison camp just now: "The battalion manager asked the assassin how things are going? The assassin said that it is not satisfactory."
"Not satisfactory?" Yan Li rejected the meaning of the word, "What does the queen think it means?"
Rong Changan shook his head: "I can't think of it either. He came to assassinate me tonight, two of them died, and he didn't achieve his goal of killing me, but he would say that it was not satisfactory? Could it be that his purpose in coming to the villa was not just to kill me? I?"
Yan Li raised even greater doubts: "The people in the prison camp, what kind of blood feud can they have with the queen, and he actually crossed over me to assassinate you? This is what confuses me the most."
If the assassin wanted to assassinate Yan Li, then Yan Li could easily connect the assassin with Ma Guang and Liang Bin.
Ma Guang and Liang Bin had already guessed that Yan Li's purpose of going to the south of the Yangtze River was to investigate the mineral and salt fields. , then came to assassinate.
There are a lot of mysteries that Rong Changan and Yan Li can't solve.
"I have already arrested Chu Lin, maybe we can go to interrogate him now, and we can find out why."
Rong Changan was a little surprised: "The emperor arrested Chu Lin?"
Yan Li said solemnly: "The assassination happened in the villa, no matter what, he can't get away with it."
Rong Changan smiled and shook his head.
Yan Li looked at her puzzled: "Queen, what are you laughing at?"
Rong Changan: "Chu Lin is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. I dare to guarantee with my life that this matter has nothing to do with him."
Yan Li asked back, "Is that why you trust him?"
Rong Chang'an smiled confidently: "I will never misjudge someone. However, let's call him over and ask him now, maybe we can get some clues."
Yan Li asked Eunuch Lu to bring the inner guards to escort Chu Lin to Baixuetang.
Chu Lin saw that Rong Changan was already sitting on the grand teacher's chair, fell to his knees, and kowtowed.
"Queen, please say something to the villain, the little one really has nothing to do with those assassins."
Chu Lin thought that if he brought Yan Li to the villa and treated him well, he would have a bright future. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen! It's really not as good as man's calculation.
Yan Li couldn't help but feel contemptuous when he saw Chu Lin's crap.
Rong Changan showed a warm smile to Chu Lin: "Mr. Chu, there is no need to panic. The emperor has found out just now. The whole matter really has nothing to do with you. Please stand up and speak."
The big stone in his heart finally fell, and Chu Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, assassinating the queen would be a heinous crime. Even if he had ten heads, it would not be enough to chop off.
"In front of the queen and the emperor, how dare a villain stand up and talk. The little one should kneel!"
Rong Changan said: "I tell you to get up, and you get up. I have something to ask you."
Rong Chang'an's words had a kind of majesty, which made people have to obey.
