"Let me out of the palace! If you don't let me, kill her!"
Jing Shu looked at the guards surrounding him with a stern look on his face. Qing'an King Zhao Yunji was also somewhat injured. He looked at Jing Shu with a pale face and a cold look on his face, "If you dare to touch her, I will kill you in pieces."
Slaughter your red mulberry!"
Jing Shu sneered and hit Wen Miaoran again with his scimitar, "Then let's try it. Is your sword faster or my sword faster? Do you want to bet?"
When Zhao Yunji saw Wen Miaoran's bleeding neck, his face changed slightly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Let him out of the palace!"
Jing Shu said to them: "Don't ask so many people to follow. If I can't get out of the palace safely, she will die!"
Xiao Xuan'an was about to say no, but Wen Miaoran was Yue'er's sister after all, and she was also the daughter of a noble family, so she had no choice but to ask the guards to let him leave with Wen Miaoran. He asked the guards to follow him secretly, and went to the palace wall to report that he would be released as soon as he left the palace.
People should be shot immediately.
As soon as Jing Shu went out, the remaining assassins were taken down by the guards. After interrogation, the death penalty awaited them.
The entire Yingqing Hall was in a mess, with blood sprinkled everywhere, a scene of massacre of the city and the destruction of the country. A large number of noble ladies, women and children from official families were injured, and there were also many injured concubines.
The emperor was furious at the premeditated assassination by the Chisang people. It was all happening right under his nose. Although Yunzhou had received the news long ago and Xiao Xuanan rushed back to report it, he couldn't tell when they would take action.
.
Xiao Xuan'an has been investigating everywhere in the palace these days. He originally wanted to place more guards in the Yingqing Hall, but the emperor wanted to lure them into action and avoid alerting the enemy, so the Yingqing Hall remained the same as usual.
So many Chisang people entered the palace with hidden weapons. Without internal response and heavy screening, it would be impossible for them to enter the heavily guarded palace with weapons.
All the imperial doctors in the palace rushed into the Yingqing Hall. Even the imperial doctors who were resting at home after their shift changed and were resting at home hurriedly entered the palace after receiving the news.
"Xier!"
A concubine cried and held the little prince Wen Jiaojiao had just rescued in her arms. That was the emperor's fifth prince Zhao Xi.
His biological mother was a low-ranking concubine Wei. Concubine Wei hugged Zhao Xi and cried for a while. She wanted to hold him over and thank Wen Jiaojiao. Just now she saw that it was Wen Jiaojiao who risked his life to save Zhao Xi.
But when she saw the two big dogs covered in blood next to Wen Jiaojiao, she was too frightened to step forward.
A whistle sounded, and the rich man let out a "Wow!", turned around, rubbed Wen Jiaojiao, and rushed to the master.
Wen Jiaojiao saw Xiang Cheng and said to him, "Thank you very much."
Regardless of whether she likes this person or not, she has to thank him for letting the big dog save her this time.
Xiang Cheng held the corner of his mouth and was pulled away by his sister in tears.
"Jiao Jiao! My Jiao Jiao!"
When Wen Jiaojiao heard his mother-in-law's loud voice, she knew that she was fine. Xiao Yurong ran towards Wen Jiaojiao, with Que Wu behind her.
Xiao Yurong hugged Wen Jiaojiao and stroked her, and kept checking whether she was injured. "As long as it's okay, it's okay."
"Auntie, you are injured!"
Wen Jiaojiao saw several cuts on Xiao Yurong's hand and immediately went to the imperial doctor anxiously.
Xiao Yurong grabbed her and said, "It doesn't matter if it's a minor injury, the imperial doctors are too busy now, and there are more people in need."
With that said, Xiao Yurong pulled Wen Jiaojiao and turned to look at Que Wu who was standing aside, "Thank you so much for your help, envoy. I, the Xiao family, will definitely be deeply grateful for this matter."
Just now Que Wu not only helped her, but also helped the emperor and queen intercept a wave of assassins. To be precise, he only helped the Xiao family.
Que Wu looked at Wen Jiaojiao and said, "No need."
Wen Jiaojiao also said to Que Wu: "Que Wu, thank you."
Xiao Yurong was shocked when she heard Wen Jiaojiao calling the envoy's name. He was Que Wu?
Xiao Yurong knew the name of the king of Sara, but had never seen what he looked like. Now that she heard Wen Jiaojiao call him, it was obvious that he was so protective of Wen Jiaojiao and that he was the one who saved her.
Interested in Jiao Jiao.
Then when he asked to marry Jiaojiao in the palace before, wasn't it just for himself?!
Xiao Yurong felt mixed emotions in her heart. Seeing Jiao Jiao's calm expression when facing him, she didn't feel uncomfortable at all. The two of them seemed to be very familiar with each other.
This matter can only be put aside for the time being. Anyway, all these envoys will have to return to the country soon, and Jiao Jiao will soon forget about him.
After the Yingqing Palace was dealt with, all the envoys from various states and official families had to leave the palace. The envoys from all states had to stay in the capital for a few days, interrogating the assassins and clearing out some related persons before leaving the capital.
When leaving the palace, Que Wu pulled Wen Jiaojiao aside and said to her: "Little Moon, don't forget me."
Wen Jiaojiao: "I have a bad memory. If you leave, I will forget you soon."
After hearing this, Que Wu pinched her cheek gently and said, "I won't let you forget me."
Wen Jiaojiao stood at the entrance of the palace, covering her hot cheeks and watching Que Wu leave. After saying goodbye to A Niang and the others, A Niang and everyone in the Wen family also returned home.
The second brother, Xiao Xuanan, came down from patrolling the palace wall, accompanied her back to the Queen's Palace, and left in a hurry without saying a few words to her.
The entire palace seemed to fall silent.
Wen Jiaojiao was originally going to return to the Wen Mansion with Xiao Yurong this time, but Xiao Yurong was afraid that if she returned to the Wen Mansion, Que Wu would meet her. Xiao Yurong knew Wen Jiaojiao's temperament very well. In the eyes of the outside world, she was a delicate and domineering little girl.
But in fact, she had the softest heart. She was afraid that Que Wu would coax Wen Jiaojiao into following him to Saluo, which would prevent the two from falling in love for a long time, so she let Wen Jiaojiao continue to stay in the palace.
In the following days, Wen Jiaojiao returned to the old life of eating and sleeping, but he would go to the East Palace to visit Zhao Yan from time to time.
In this assassination, many noble ladies from aristocratic families were killed and injured, but fortunately there were many people in the palace who were skilled in martial arts. If they had not been poisoned by the assassins' powder, the casualties would have been smaller.
The concubines were seated closest to the emperor and empress, and were protected by the palace attendants. Some of the concubines were skilled in martial arts. Only a few were injured, but no one died.
Beiyuan has just entered its heyday, and has not yet completely recovered from the intermittent wars of the past hundreds of years. The people of Beiyuan are still in the stage of advocating martial arts. The status of military generals is higher than that of civil servants. Nearly half of the concubines in the harem are from the families of military generals.
's noble daughter.
After this assassination, Wen Jiaojiao found that the emperor came to the Queen's Palace more frequently. In the past, he might come once or twice a month, but now he came every two days.
Last time in the Yingqing Hall, the queen held a dagger to protect the emperor. In order to prevent herself from being affected by the powder, she even cut herself. No one could look at her with emotion.
When Wen Jiaojiao saw the emperor coming to Fengyi Palace, he hid out again, took the cakes and Yuzhu and went to the East Palace to find Zhao Yan. He bled too much last time and was seriously injured. He is still recuperating in his palace.
