That evening, Feng Qinghuang and Rong Qi finished their dinner and came out of the Dark Night Tower.

Not long after I left, I could sense an unusual atmosphere in the air.

Rong Qi held his little darling in his arms, shielding her face.

Soon after, the sounds of fighting could be heard, and there seemed to be quite a few people involved.

Feng Qinghuang kept trying to look up to see what was going on, but Rong Qi pressed her head into his arms with his large hand, preventing her from seeing.

When Feng Qinghuang got upset, she opened her mouth with her little teeth and bit Rong Qi.

Rong Qi sensed her mischievousness, but he didn't expect her to bite him, especially in a sensitive spot.

He gently patted her head and whispered in her ear, "Be good, or you'll regret it."

Her voice was alluring and seductive, completely captivating Feng Qinghuang.

At this moment, Feng Qinghuang was extremely obedient, raising her head to look at Rong Qi's handsome face.

Rong Qi lowered his head and kissed the person in his arms: "I'll take you to see something fun later, okay?"

Feng Qinghuang nodded obediently.

Rong Qi's heart melted; his little darling was so adorable.

About fifteen minutes later, the fighting stopped, and the air was filled with the smell of blood. Feng Qinghuang rubbed her little nose.

Rong Qi, holding Xiao Jiaojiao in his arms, leaped onto the roof and left behind a single sentence.

"Take those corpses with you and come with me."

The guards immediately carried the people and corpses and followed Rong Qi's figure.

Rong Qi led his men all the way to the outside of Yanxi Palace before stopping.

"Aqi, why did you bring me here? Where is this place?"

Feng Qinghuang stepped out of Rong Qi's arms, looking at the enormous palace with some confusion.

"This is Yanxi Palace. There will be something interesting to see later."

Rong Qi ordered his guards to hang the corpses at the entrance of Yanxi Palace, leaving one or two behind, and then throwing them directly onto Li Wanyue's bed.

Rong Qi led Feng Qinghuang to Li Wanyue's bedchamber.

Li Wanyue originally thought that by sending so many people to kill Rong Qi today, they could at least seriously injure him, no matter what.

So she wasn't worried at all and went to bed early.

At that moment, I don't know what I was dreaming about, but I was actually quite happy.

Rong Qi and Feng Qinghuang hid in the shadows.

Rong Qi's face was expressionless, but his eyes were dangerously captivating.

Rong Qi twitched his fingers slightly, and a burst of energy struck Li Wanyue.

Li Wanyue was awakened by the pain. She groggily tried to raise her hand to rub the painful spot, but found that she couldn't lift her hand.

Li Wanyue opened her eyes, struggled to sit up, and suddenly discovered two black-clad corpses on the bed, which terrified her and made her scream.

Her cries not only alerted the palace maids on night watch outside, but also woke up all the palace staff in Yanxi Palace.

Then they saw a row of bloody corpses hanging on the entire gate of Yanxi Palace.

In an instant, the entire Yanxi Palace was filled with screams, and the whole palace was awakened.

The Imperial Guards in the palace all rushed towards the direction from which the sound came.

In the inner palace, the masters of all the palaces were heading towards Yanxi Palace.

The Emperor and Empress were also awakened and were heading towards their destination.

Upon seeing the Emperor and Empress approaching, everyone knelt down and paid their respects.

Even the madwoman Li Wanyue was helped out by several palace maids.

Rong Yuan's expression was unfriendly. He waved for them to get up and asked, "What's going on?"

The head palace maid, Hongmu, answered tremblingly, "Your Majesty, we were serving the Imperial Concubine as usual when we heard her scream in the middle of the night. When we rushed over, we found two corpses of men in black on her bed. The Imperial Concubine was so frightened that she lost her composure, and then..."

Rong Yuan touched the ring on his finger: "Continue..."

Hongmu: "Who would have thought that there was a row of corpses of men in black hanging outside the gate of Yanxi Palace."

Rong Yuan roared, "Insolence!"

Hearing the emperor's anger, everyone knelt down again.

Hongmu prostrated himself on the ground: "Your Majesty, please grant justice for the Empress."

The Empress, watching this scene, inwardly scoffed, "Hmph, it's nothing more than an eye for an eye. To make the decision? Wouldn't that mean Li Wanyue has to die?"

The Empress didn't care; if it concerned Aqi, His Majesty wouldn't let Li Wanyue off the hook.

Emperor Rong Yuan had considered the possibility that A Qi was behind this.

Because, after all, this method is very easy to master.

But on the surface, he still had to maintain a respectable facade.

Rong Yuan ordered: "Investigate this thoroughly."

Imperial Guard Leader: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Rong Yuan turned and left, taking with him a group of onlookers with him.

The man in the back, Hongmu, breathed a sigh of relief and knelt down on the ground.

A moment later, he got up and ordered the palace servants to clean up the corpses in the palace and the empress's bedchamber.

Hongmu helped Li Wanyue into the inner room.

"Your Highness, everyone's gone. Do you think these bodies might have been sent by that prince?"

Li Wanyue was perfectly lucid at this moment. Upon hearing Hongmu's words, she patted the table next to the soft couch.

"Hmph, so what if it is him? He has no evidence. I am the victim now, let's see how His Majesty investigates."

Hongmu felt that his wife's intelligence seemed a bit lacking.

Who is Prince Rong? How could he not find out? Perhaps the evidence is already with His Majesty, otherwise why would he blatantly send everyone back?

Redwood is a great sober-up.

When Rong Yuan returned from Yanxi Palace, he did not sleep again and went straight to the Imperial Study.

When I got back, I saw a letter and a note on the table in the Imperial Study.

The note read "Return to its rightful owner" in large characters.

Opening the letter next to it, one could find a detailed account of how Li Wanyue sent people outside the palace to contact assassins from foreign lands, the amount of the reward, and the entire process, along with some evidence.

Rong Yuan slammed his fist on the table: "She's getting more and more outrageous. This time she actually invited assassins from other regions. Does she think our Azure Dragon Kingdom doesn't have enough assassins for her?"

Upon hearing the emperor's words, Eunuch Hong inexplicably wanted to laugh, but he dared not.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine was able to hire assassins from beyond the borders, so it must not have been done by her alone. The Imperial Concubine has been in the palace for more than ten years, how could she know people outside the palace and be able to contact assassins from beyond the borders?"

Upon hearing Eunuch Hong's words, the emperor understood his meaning; it was nothing more than a matter of some connection to the Li family.

Is the Li family complaining that they're living too well?
