That night, A Li took advantage of the darkness to give away Wu Sheyue's things. But before they saw the results, before Han Yi suddenly regretted it, they first received the news that the emperor came to visit...
Early the next morning, Wu Sheyue put on new makeup on Ayan before dawn, and then went to check the letters that should have been handed over to Yu Jing. After seeing the news from the Zongren Mansion, she suddenly felt a little uneasy. She turned around and saw the result of Ning'er's treatment.
Wu Sheyue thought about it for a moment, then turned to ask Ayan: "Where is Changfeng? I also have to go see Han Yi and ask him to take me."
At this time, A Li suddenly came in. He said with a very sad expression: "It's too late. The emperor is here and has led several imperial doctors to the gate of the palace."
"Isn't this too sudden?" Wu Sheyue stood up, and Zhuer took the letters and hid them tightly.
A Li asked eagerly: "Miss Third, what should we do now?" After following her for so long, he was slowly convincing her.
Ayan struggled to sit up and hesitantly grabbed his prosthetic limb, "Then let's just say I'm much better. I'll go see the emperor to prevent the imperial doctor from really getting involved."
After hearing this, A Li was about to turn around and go out. Wu Sheyue immediately grabbed him and said, "Wait a minute! Just say that the young prince's wound became inflamed again last night. He has a fever now and cannot get up to see the emperor."
Pearl exclaimed, "But, there is an imperial doctor here. The emperor asked the imperial doctor to come over and see what to do."
Wu Sheyue frowned, "As long as the emperor wants to do that, no matter whether Yu Jing is good or bad today, he will not be able to evade this wave of inspections." She is increasingly doubting that the person Yu Jing is secretly trying to hide is really the emperor. .
Ayan's approval reaction further confirmed Wu Sheyue's thoughts. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, what are the third young ladies planning to do next?"
"The old lady is going to meet the emperor, so let's drag her over there first. I can -" Before she could finish her words, she suddenly heard a slight noise coming from outside.
Everyone stopped talking in panic. A Li walked to the window, suddenly opened the window and looked out at the dim sky. Then he said softly: "There are assassins, and they are fighting."
"Why are you still here?!"
If it was to learn the true extent of Yu Jing's injuries last time, then what was the purpose of cooperating this time? Moreover, these three things all come together, who can say that they are not combined.
The sounds outside gradually became clearer. A Li drew out his sword and walked out through the window. Before leaving, he just said, "Close the doors and windows. Zhu'er protects Miss Third and A Yan. Don't come out."
—
There was no one in the yard, except for the sound of weapons clashing in the distance. Pearl closed her eyes in frustration and said, "Then the emperor will come here soon."
"Yes, they just want us to be in a hurry, or... if the assassin really succeeds, that would be a good thing." Wu Sheyue asked her solemnly: "Is it so easy to enter Prince Yu's Mansion? This is the second time."
Regarding Wu Sheyue's suspicion, Zhu'er was a little aggrieved, "That's because the master has withdrawn all the main forces! Long Fu left almost nothing behind. This huge palace... is only guarded by a few of us secret guards. .”
Wu Sheyue's face darkened, "If the other party really knows and really wants people's lives, they will definitely send more killers." So A Li and the others are in a bit of a dangerous situation...
Suddenly, it became quiet again outside. The sudden restoration of calm only added a bit of strangeness. No one spoke in the room, and it became eerily quiet for a moment.
Pearl ran to the window and peeped out, but judging by her expression, she probably didn't see anything.
Wu Sheyue immediately reached under the bed and touched the two guys who took advantage of her. She got up and walked out, "I'll go take a look."
Pearl repeatedly tried to dissuade her, "Miss Third, don't go—"
"Look at Ayan." Wu Sheyue didn't even look back. She nimbly avoided Zhu'er's hand behind her and walked out of the inner hall without looking back.
Just because she doesn't take action doesn't mean she won't do it~ There's no chance of winning if someone stays in the house and waits for someone to come over and attack him. Even if he's playing games, there's no point in squatting in his lair and not moving. So attacking each other is the way to go.
However, Wu Sheyue still had no chance to show off her professional qualities as a modern killer this time, because as soon as she opened the door, she ran into a field of white.
She was too fast, so the other person only had time to stretch out his arms and pick her up.
Wu Sheyue was confused. She clearly didn't feel the presence of anyone outside the door... There was a piece of white soft cloth in front of her eyes. She slowly raised her head and saw the most familiar chin in her life - she had been there for several days. The painted chin.
The other person half supported and half hugged her with one hand, patted her head with the other hand, and said in a calm and steady voice: "Okay."
Wu Sheyue suddenly took two steps back and pulled out of his arms. When she saw Yu Jing coming back at this time, she couldn't tell whether she was surprised or frightened. Maybe she had seen too many fake people, and she even wondered if there would be another person who would change his face and replace the fake Yu Jing in front of her.
"What's wrong?" Yu Jing frowned slightly. He was a little dissatisfied with what this girl looked like.
Wu Sheyue turned her head slightly and saw A Li and three or two secret guards standing not far behind Yu Jing. Their sword blades were still stained with blood, but they themselves were unscathed.
So Wu Sheyue said awkwardly, "It's nothing, it's just sudden. You came back a little too fast."
"Why don't you just catch up in time? Let's go and see the emperor." Yu Jing said, turned around and handed the weapon to A Li and said, "You escort A Yan to leave first."
Then he didn't enter the house, but took Wu Sheyue's hand and walked out.
The two of them walked side by side on the path of Prince Yu's Mansion. The sun was quiet in the morning and the breeze was blowing. Wu Sheyue still couldn't believe this scene. She originally thought there was going to be a tough battle. The result... seemed to be resolved suddenly
She lowered her voice and said: "Hey, you know, Ayan's arm is broken. The emperor should have known about it a long time ago, so that's why he is like this."
Yu Jing slowly tightened his hold on her hand, "It's okay, it's too late now. Ayan, I will find a way."
Seeing Yu Jing's indifferent look, Wu Sheyue thought he had just heard A Li talk about this, so she asked something else, "Were those assassins killed by the people you brought back?"
"kindness."
"What about your stronghold?"
"They are already rushing over there. These people will fill all the vacancies when they come back, and everything will be fine."
Wu Sheyue thought for a moment, and then honestly explained: "I also know some things about Yu Ren and Xiao Concubine, maybe you are not interested?"
Yu Jing didn't answer this sentence, he just held her hand and rubbed it slowly a few times, seeming to be thinking about something. Wu Sheyue thought that he really didn't care, and was secretly angry in her heart about why he was meddling in other people's business. I heard Yu Jing suddenly say: "I'll tell you something later."
