Chapter 49 Night Exploration

"Your Highness, Jingyu comes to see you!"

Huo Yuchen, who was just about to go to bed, heard the guard's report and said lightly, "Please ask her to come in!"

After Jingyu entered the room, she knelt on the ground and reported anxiously, "Your Highness, the Sixth Miss was taken away by Concubine De's people. They said that Princess Huai'an has disappeared and has not been found yet. They want to ask the young lady about it."

"What was the expression on Miss Six's face when she was taken away? Did she give any explanation?"

"The young lady was very calm and not at all flustered. She kept comforting her two maids and told them not to worry."

"Okay, I understand. You go back first! I'll go to Concubine De right away and make sure nothing happens to her!"

After Jingyu left, Huo Yuchen immediately changed into night clothes, took a few secret guards with him, and hurried to the palace of Concubine De.

When Huo Yuchen arrived, the entire palace was already dark. Except for a few night patrolmen walking back and forth at the door, everyone else had fallen asleep.

A secret guard captured a nanny on duty and asked her, and soon found out the room where Lin Pianran was imprisoned.

When Huo Yuchen quietly entered the room and lit a tinder, he saw a mat on the floor in the empty hall.

There was a small bump on the floor.

It was obvious that someone was sleeping inside.

The "Hundred Poison Pills" eliminated most of the toxins in Huo Yuchen's body, and his martial arts skills have recovered to about 80% of their original strength.

He has been learning Kung Fu since he was young, and with the guidance of his uncle Wei Zixing, Huo Yuchen's Kung Fu can be said to be very superb.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is one of the top masters in the Qin State.

People who practice martial arts have sharp ears and eyes. As soon as he entered the hall, Huo Yuchen heard the sound of clear and even breathing.

It seems that the people in the hall have already fallen asleep.

Huo Yuchen took the fire starter and walked over gently, and saw Lin Pianran sleeping soundly.

When he learned that Lin Pianran was taken to Concubine De's palace, he was uneasy, worried that she would be bullied.

But I didn't expect that the little girl had already fallen asleep comfortably.

It was all in vain!

Little heartless thing!

Seeing the girl's quiet and beautiful sleeping face, Huo Yuchen stared at her for a long time.

I was almost mesmerized by it.

The beauty looks even more beautiful under the light.

That kind of hazy temptation arouses people's endless imagination.

The night was gentle, and half of Lin Pianran's face was hidden in the quilt, appearing and disappearing.

Her eyelashes are very long, like a small fan, trembling from time to time. Her sleeping face is picturesque, exquisite and perfect.

Her cherry lips moved gently with every breath, making people feel itchy.

Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, Huo Yuchen's heart suddenly felt full and fulfilled.

At this moment, his heart was sinking and losing.

He stretched out his bamboo-like fingers and gently stroked Lin Pianran's cheek.

Although he felt that doing so was ungentlemanly, he still did it for some unknown reason.

When Lin Pianran felt a tingling sensation on her face, she immediately became alert.

When she opened her hazy eyes, she felt a big hand wandering around her cheek.

Suddenly I broke out in a cold sweat.

When she saw that it was Huo Yuchen, her face was full of surprise.

I quickly burrowed deeper into the quilt, almost getting my head in there, so I couldn't see anymore.

Then he asked in a muffled voice, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

"I heard that you were taken away by Consort De. I was very worried about you, so I came to see you."

"I didn't expect Miss Six to be so generous!"

"He was actually sleeping soundly in a strange place alone."

"Aren't you afraid that bad guys will come in and do something bad to Miss Six?"

Lin Pianran nodded slightly, blinked her moist eyes, and exhaled softly before saying, "It's not that I'm careless. I've been busy all day, and played with those 'little ghosts' in the mourning hall at night. I'm really exhausted!"

"I just wanted to take a nap, but I didn't expect to get into the warm quilt and fall asleep without realizing it."

"If Your Highness had not come and woke me up, I would still be fighting three hundred rounds in my dream!"

"Now, we're only halfway through the fight, and we don't even know who's winning or losing!"

These words almost made Huo Yuchen laugh out loud.

He came to see her out of kindness and cared about her safety, but she blamed him for disturbing her sweet dream.

However, thinking about it again, Lin Pianran was indeed very busy that day.

The fact that she went to the cave to rescue people and detoxified herself made him unable to retort and say anything wrong about Lin Pianran.

Forget it! I won't bother with this little girl.

Huo Yuchen gently pulled back a corner of the quilt, staring at Lin Pianran intently, and asked, "De Fei has locked you up here, do you have any solutions?"

"She can't possibly have been keeping me locked up without any evidence!"

"Besides, I have a feeling that Princess Huai'an might come back tomorrow, so there is no reason for Her Majesty the Virtuous to keep holding me captive for no reason!"

As soon as Huo Yuchen heard this, he knew that the little girl did not say what was in her heart, and her words were just to fool him.

But he wasn't unhappy.

She knew the little girl must have her own ideas.

But he couldn't help but say, "Don't underestimate your aunt. She is extremely cruel and ruthless! Her methods of dealing with people are endless."

"She punishes those who serve her at will. Every year, at least a dozen people die in Concubine De's palace."

"Over the years, because the emperor has always doted on her and her, she has become extremely arrogant."

"Moreover, Concubine De and Concubine Li were very close friends. It can be said that she had already taken refuge with Concubine Li very early on."

"With Concubine Li's support, she is like a fish in water in the harem. There are few people she takes seriously."

"You must not be careless or reckless. If you fall into her trap, with her vicious methods, the consequences will be very serious!"

Lin Pianran didn't expect that Concubine De had already defected to Concubine Li so early on. No wonder she was so successful in the harem even though she had no son.

This was beyond Lin Pianran's expectations.

However, even if he knew it now, it would not change Lin Pianran's mind.

No matter how favored Concubine De is, it cannot change her intention to kill everyone in the Lin family.

If Concubine De dared to obstruct her actions.

Then let’s just kill them together.

Anyway, the old emperor prefers young beauties, and Concubine De is already old and ugly.

He wanted to make her fall from favor and then kill her.

It’s not a very difficult thing.

It just takes some effort.

It’s no big deal!

After Huo Yuchen finished speaking, he saw that Lin Pianran had no reaction at all. He thought that this girl didn't listen to him to heart. He was afraid that she would not take it seriously and would suffer in the future.

He quickly said, "If you can't handle Concubine De's affairs, I can help you."
