The sky gradually turned dark, and Murong Jingshu became more and more frightened. Jasmine and Nishang had been killed one after another.
The only remaining concubines of Xuan Ningxuan were her and Murong Jingwan. Murong Jingwan was protected by Xuan Ningxuan personally. The assassin's next target is likely to be her.
The more Murong Jingshu thought about it, the more frightened she became. She could no longer sit calmly in the palace.
"Shu Fei, it's so late, where are you going?" the guard guarding outside the palace gate asked respectfully.
"The queen's bedroom." Murong Jingshu said in a panic.
The guard looked at Murong Jingshu in embarrassment, "My Lady Shu, the Emperor will not let you leave the palace."
Murong Jingshu glared at the guards bitterly, "If you don't leave the palace, you losers can protect me. If anything happens to the prince in my belly, you can bear it."
The guard suddenly became silent and followed Murong Jingshu in embarrassment.
Murong Jingshu quickly walked to Murong Jingwan's palace. Seeing the guards guarding outside the palace, Murong Jingshu's eyes were full of jealousy. Xuan Ningxuan was not enough to protect Murong Jingwan personally, but sent so many
bodyguard.
Murong Jingshu tidied the white feather coat she was wearing bitterly, and walked directly to Murong Jingwan's bedroom.
"Empress Shu, it's so late, do you have anything to do with the Empress?" Caixia blocked Murong Jingshu and asked displeasedly.
"Why, I can't come to see the queen!" Murong Jingshu asked coldly, suddenly thinking that Xuan Ningxuan was probably also in Murong Jingwan's bedroom, she immediately restrained her arrogance and said softly, "I
The palace can't sleep and wants to talk to the queen."
"Caixia, let sister come in." Murong Jingwan's gentle voice came from the bedroom.
Murong Jingwan had already spoken, Caixia could not stop Murong Jingshu and could only let her enter the palace.
Murong Jingshu glanced at Caixia proudly, thinking secretly in her heart that one day she would punish Caixia properly.
Opening the door, Murong Jingshu was surprised to find that Xuan Ningxuan was not in Murong Jingwan's bedroom.
"Sister, there's no need to look for him. The Emperor won't come tonight." Murong Jingwan said without any expression. She was the one who left Xuan Ningxuan in anger.
Murong Jingshu's face was full of shock. Xuan Ningxuan doted on Murong Jingwan so much, how could he leave Murong Jingwan alone at this critical moment? Could it be that the murderer has been caught.
"Sister Jingwan, the murderer has been caught?" Murong Jingshu walked slowly in front of Murong Jingwan. Under the flickering candlelight, Murong Jingshu was surprised to find that Murong Jingwan's face was covered with tears.
"Sister, if the murderer has been caught, do you think the palace should be guarded by guards?" Murong Jingwan said coldly. She had no intention of dealing with Murong Jingshu.
Murong Jingshu looked at Murong Jingwan in astonishment, feeling that Murong Jingwan was different tonight than usual.
"Jingwan, have you made the emperor unhappy?" Murong Jingshu asked tentatively.
Murong Jingwan slowly raised her head and looked at Murong Jingshu, with a cold smile on her lips, which made Murong Jingshu couldn't help but shudder.
"Sister, how about you and I make a deal?" Murong Jingwan said word by word.
Murong Jingshu stood up suddenly, looked at Murong Jingwan fearfully, and said intermittently: "You...are awake..."
Murong Jingwan also stood up, approached Murong Jingshu step by step, and said coldly: "Thanks to my sister, I am not only awake, but I also know that my sister and Xiao Han are planning to take me out of the palace."
Cold sweat continued to roll down Murong Jingshu's forehead, Murong Jingwan actually knew everything.
"Sister Jingwan is joking, how could she know Xiao Han?" Murong Jingshu said pretending to be calm, but her heartbeat was getting faster and faster, but she still held a trace of luck in her heart. Murong Jingwan definitely had no evidence, otherwise she would have told him
Xuanningxuan.
Murong Jingwan showed a cold smile and glared at Murong Jingshu fiercely.
"Sister, why are you pretending? You were the one who sent people to assassinate me in the back mountain that day. I guessed it right. The pastry you made for me yourself was because the pastry contained the poison of aconite." Murong Jing
Wan pressed harder, she wanted to see Xiao Han, she wanted to leave the palace, she must not let Xuan Ningyi be caught. And to see Xiao Han, only Murong Jingshu could do it.
The defense line in Murong Jingshu's heart was completely defeated. It turned out that Murong Jingwan knew everything, but she pretended to be so good.
"Since you know everything, why don't you tell the emperor and let the emperor punish me." Murong Jingshu admitted everything, but her heart gradually calmed down.
"Because I want to make a deal with my sister, and I also know that my sister will definitely come to me tonight, because you are afraid that the murderer's next target will be you." Murong Jing Wanfu sat down again and said with a calm expression.
Murong Jingshu's eyes flashed with secret joy, Murong Jingwan had not yet told Xuan Ningxuan everything.
"What deal?" Murong Jingshu slowly walked into Murong Jingwan and sat down next to her.
"I want to see Xiao Han." Murong Jingwan said word by word.
Murong Jingshu looked at Murong Jingwan suspiciously, she did not believe that Murong Jingwan's request was so simple.
"You only want to see Xiao Han? Can I trust you?" Murong Jingshu observed every detail of Murong Jingwan's expression, trying to pry into Murong Jingwan's true inner thoughts.
Murong Jingwan smiled and said confidently: "Sister, do you still have a choice? I also have a handle on my sister. The person I want to see is Xiao Han."
Murong Jingshu nodded gently. Indeed, if Xuan Ningxuan knew that Murong Jingwan wanted to see another man, Long Yan would be furious.
"When do you want to see Xiao Han?" Murong Jingshu asked solemnly, but she was worried about whether she could survive tonight.
"Tomorrow night, sister, you can rest assured that the emperor will not come to my palace these days, and your life is not in danger." Murong Jingwan said lightly, knowing all of Murong Jingshu's thoughts at a glance.
Murong Jingshu stretched out her palm, and Murong Jingwan immediately stretched out her palm, and the palms of their hands struck each other, making a crisp sound, which was particularly clear in the silent palace.
"It's a deal, but sister wants to know who killed Nishang and Jasmine?" Murong Jingshu looked at Murong Jingwan seriously. She knew that Murong Jingwan must know who did it, so she could be so calm.
.
"Sister, I'm sorry I can't tell you, but I can promise you that your life will never be in danger if you are with me." Murong Jingwan promised word for word.
Murong Jingshu looked at Murong Jingwan suspiciously and did not continue to ask. The current situation was not good for her. If she was not careful, she might be in doom.
"Sister, if you have no doubts, Jingwan is going to bed." There was a hint of exhaustion in Murong Jingwan's voice.
"Can I let my sister sleep with you?" Murong Jingshu asked pleadingly. She was afraid of returning to the palace alone.
Murong Jingwan did not speak, but turned sideways to make way for Murong Jingshu.
