When everyone was nervous, they saw Luo Xun stepping lightly on the glazed tiles, and his petite figure instantly stopped next to the black shadow. He calmly pulled Luo Xi out from under the sword, and saw a blood mark on Luo Xi's neck, childishly
A murderous look flashed across his face for a moment, and he took the knife from the hand of the imperial guard at the side and thrust it straight into the black shadow's heart.
"Wait a minute -" Gardenia stopped weakly, Luo Xun's knife stopped just inches away from Heiying's heart, Luo Xi held her brother's hand tightly, trembling with fear.
"Xun'er, don't... kill him..." Leaning on Ling Jiyun's shoulder, Gardenia used her last breath of strength.
"Gardener - Gardener - Qing, come in and take a look." Ling Jiyun picked her up and rushed into the dormitory with an anxious roar.
The commander of the Royal Forest Army approached the black shadow. Ever since the prince appeared beside him, the black shadow had maintained this posture. The commander of the Royal Forest Army carefully turned behind the black shadow and found that there was a small silver needle inserted into the black shadow's cervical spine.
The needle was inserted into his acupuncture point. After removing the silver needle, he pulled off his black mask. The commander of the Royal Forest Army was shocked and said: "How could it be you?"
The water in the basin turned red and red, which was shocking. Xi'er still leaned against Luo Xun and sobbed softly. Looking at her motionless mother on the bed, she was really frightened.
"Qing, how's it going?" Ling Jiyun held Gardenia's hand tightly, her eyes full of worry.
The palace maid walked up to Feng Qing with water. Feng Qing put his hand into the basin and washed it and said, "Fortunately, the wound is not deep. It's just excessive blood loss that makes you unconscious. Don't worry, it's okay. Just wake up and take care of yourself."
Her heart that seemed to be suffocated regained consciousness. Ling Jiyun gently tucked her into the snow silk quilt and called Luo Xi with one hand, saying, "Xi'er, don't be sad. Uncle Feng has already said that mother will be fine when she wakes up."
Looking at Feng Qing, Luoxi still asked with tears in his eyes: "Is it true?"
"Really, how could Uncle Feng be willing to lie to Xi'er?" He bent down and gently scratched the bridge of Luo Xi's nose, which made the girl burst into laughter.
Eunuch Zhang came in and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the commander of the Royal Forest Army is outside asking for instructions on how to deal with the assassin."
His fists were clattering, and there was a frightening cold light on his face. He was coming for Gardenia? With Gardenia’s temper, what kind of person would she offend who would kill her? He raised his eyes and looked at Feng Qing.
, Feng Qing shook his head and said: "It can't be Lianhe Tower, they haven't reached Aoran City yet."
Looking at the unconscious Gardenia, Ling Jiyun said coldly: "Kill him into pieces and throw him out to feed the dogs."
"no."
Ling Jiyun was slightly startled because these two words came out of Luo Xun's mouth. He raised a smile and asked with interest: "Do you have a better idea than me?"
Luo Xun shook his head, and his tone was unquestionable: "Mother asked me not to kill him, so you can't kill him either."
The two father and son just stared at each other coldly, neither of them willing to admit defeat. Finally, Ling Jiyun was defeated and walked out with side eyes.
"Leyin, take good care of Gardenia." Fengqing ordered Leyin who was standing aside.
"I know this, Prince, don't worry." When Feng Qing followed Ling Jiyun and disappeared from the door, she bowed another gift to the two children: "I have met the princess and the prince."
"Who are you?"
Knowing that Luoxi's curiosity was beginning to trouble her again, Luo Xun quietly left the house.
"My name is Leyin. I have been serving your princess and your mother a long time ago."
"So are you going to live with us now?"
"Yes, this morning the prince said that the slaves should come into the palace to serve the master. Unexpectedly, something happened to delay him. I didn't expect that he would encounter these things when he entered the palace later. The master is really pitiful." Leyin lowered his eyes with regret on his face.
Luo Xi gently tugged on her sleeve and said, "Uncle Feng just said that mother will be fine when she wakes up."
"Yes, the master will be fine when he wakes up." Unexpectedly, he was comforted by a little girl, and Leyin was really embarrassed.
In the courtyard of Yaxu Palace, Ling Jiyun had a heavy expression on his face. After knowing who the assassin was and thinking about Luo Xun's words, he was a little undecided.
Feng Qing stood aside and played with the jade fan in his hand, thinking of the anger that flashed across Lian Ruoyi's face in the Royal Garden that day. He didn't expect that Lu Xinlan was more impatient than she was, and chose that time to assassinate. Come to think of it.
It's really ridiculous. I'm afraid she made the same mistake as Ling Jihua. I didn't expect Gardenia to know how to do Qinggong. When necessary, she would use flying needles to prick the leaves to protect herself. Now she was stealing the chicken and the rice. After a long time, Feng Qing was still there.
I couldn't help but ask: "What are you going to do?"
"I don't want Gardenia to be hurt again. Although she has lost her memory now, she knows too much about some things. I can't guarantee that she won't do the same thing six years ago."
Smiling lightly, Feng Qing said: "You are still the same as before, you want the country and the gardenia."
Eyes lowered and silent——.
Feng Qing continued: "If you want to deal with Concubine Lan, you should be cautious in dealing with the relationship with Yuxi Kingdom."
"Hmph——." Ling Jiyun sneered and said: "You just need to directly inform the leader of the Yuxi Kingdom about what happened here, and see how the face-loving leader of the Yuxi Kingdom will react."
"You have to know that if this happens, Concubine Lan's reputation in Yuxi Kingdom will be completely ruined. Will the leader of Yuxi Kingdom let it go?"
"He can only have his teeth knocked out and his blood swallowed. After all, he still doesn't have the guts to be an enemy of the Aoran Dynasty."
"But you can't push him too hard. After all, the Yuxi Kingdom and the Western Region Kingdom are neighboring countries. The master has sent back the news that the Lord of Qin has not handled the government affairs for several days. During this period, his son Qin Yujing was acting as agent. I guess he should let him
His son is under house arrest. If we have a stalemate with the Yuxi Kingdom at this time, I'm afraid someone will take advantage of him."
"Humph——, a real vassal country actually dares to play tricks on me. It seems that if Qin Yujing doesn't give a good blow, he doesn't know how ruthless my methods are." Ling Jiyun stood up and said calmly, with a tone of dismay.
The power of heart palpitations.
"Gardenia didn't let the prince kill Yao Jin because she wanted to know why he assassinated her." Feng Qing said, closing the jade fan.
Ling Jiyun did not respond directly to his words, but asked: "Is there anything going on at Jinhua Palace?"
He shook his head and said: "There is no movement, it seems like everything is business as usual. I'm afraid I think this move will be a success."
He raised the corners of his lips and evoked a hint of evil beauty: "Tomorrow, take Yao Jin to Jinhua Palace to raise an army to question the crime."
Feng Qing immediately answered: "Are you trying to knock down the mountain and shake the tiger?"
"I want to kill as a warning to a hundred people."
He loved Gardenia so deeply that this kind of love was even a bit scary. At the same time, he was also afraid that Gardenia would not be able to bear such domineering love. He sneered in his heart. If he also had this kind of domineering love, he would be afraid of Gardenia.
He will never give in to her. This is the difference between them. He can love her but cannot afford her.
