Chapter 50: Someone come quickly! There is an assassin trying to kill someone!

The yard is not small, but there is only a hardwood bed in the house.

Xue Youli had just arrived at this new environment and was not used to it, so she asked Banxia to sleep with her.

At this moment, the man in black looked at the two figures sleeping on the bed, drew the knife from his waist, and moved closer to the bed little by little.

He was getting closer and closer to the bed, with the knife already raised in his hand.

However, just as the man in black was about to rush forward to chop the man, his feet were entangled by a long rope and he almost fell flat on his face.

'Jingle bells! Jingle bells!'

Then, the sound of bells broke the silence of the cold palace.

The man in black was startled and realized that the rope that almost tripped him was tied with a string of bells.

The ringing sound was so loud that it immediately woke up the sleeping master and servant.

As soon as Banxia opened her eyes, she saw the man in black standing in front of the bed and shouted, "Assassin! Someone come quickly! There's an assassin trying to kill someone!"

The man in black was worried that she would call the guards of the cold palace, so he swung his knife and chopped at the bed.

Fortunately, Xue Youli used the noise decibel tester and pulled Banxia away.

However, the assassin was no pushover. When his first strike missed, he swung his sword again.

This time, the blade pierced Banxia's clothes and her arm was immediately covered in blood.

In the darkness, the assassin couldn't tell who was the master and who was the servant between her and Xue Youli, so he decided to kill whoever he could.

Xue Youli learned some life-saving kung fu before entering the palace. She knew that she could not defeat the man in black by head-on fight, so she threw the quilt on the bed hard at his head.

At the same time, he pulled up Banxia and ran to the door, calling for help, "Hurry up! Now's your chance to catch the assassin and make a contribution!"

As the man in black was blindfolded and hacking indiscriminately, Xiao Zhongzi, who lived in the next yard, heard the noise and rushed in with a group of eunuchs.

The man in black exchanged a few moves with them, but was outnumbered and was stabbed.

When Emperor Cang fled, the badge fell to the ground.

In the room, Banxia blew out the tinder and lit the lamp.

Xiao Zhongzi quickly presented the badge he had picked up to Xue Youli, "Look, my beauty, the badge left behind by the assassin is the badge of Xuanyun Palace!"

Xue Youli took the badge and sneered.

What kind of assassin does bad things with his ID card in his pocket?

[The Book of Heavenly Secrets, check! ]

The result of the investigation in the Book of Heaven was the same as her guess. Xue Qingyao stole the badge of Xuanyun Palace in order to kill two birds with one stone and wanted to frame it on Yin Xuaner.

After all, Yin Xuan'er was injured when she rolled down the stairs today, so it was reasonable for her to want to get rid of Xue Youli.

Xue Youli found out the whole story and immediately came up with a plan to deal with it.

She took out two silver ingots and handed them to Xiao Zhongzi, "Eunuch Zhong, please tell Eunuch Wang in front of the emperor that I encountered an assassin in the cold palace and almost lost my life tonight."

Xiao Zhongzi took the silver and immediately assured Xue Youli, "Don't worry, my beauty, I will definitely pass on your message!"

"Also, tell Eunuch Wang that when you were chasing the assassin, you found that the assassin fled in the direction of Minghua Palace."

Xiao Zhongzi's men did chase the assassin, but they haven't returned yet. How did Concubine Xue know which direction the assassin fled to?

However, Concubine Xue is the master, and if the master said to escape in the direction of Minghua Palace, then that must be correct.

"Yes, I will do it right away."

After Xiao Zhongzi left, Xue Youli immediately took out the medical kit to treat Banxia's wound.

"Banxia, ​​I hurt you again."

Listening to Xue Youli's self-blaming voice, Banxia replied nonchalantly, "What kind of injury is this? It's not as painful as a bench falling on your foot! If you don't treat this injury, it should heal by tomorrow after a good night's sleep."

Yes, the only thing to be thankful for was that the assassin's knife only cut a little skin on Banxia's arm.

However, even if it was just a minor injury, she would punish Xue Qingyao severely!

Zicheng Palace.

Murong Che had been up for most of the night and had just finished reviewing the memorials and was about to go back to rest when Wang Defa strode in.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the Cold Palace..."

After listening to his report, Murong Che narrowed his peach blossom eyes slightly and said thoughtfully, "Immediately take charge of Yongchun Palace."

Wang Defa was stunned.

The person in the cold palace was almost stabbed to death by an assassin tonight, but the emperor not only did not say anything, but instead went to see Concubine Li. Could it be that Concubine Xue has really fallen out of favor?

But no matter how doubtful we are, we dare not say it, and we dare not ask it.

When they arrived at Yongchun Palace, Concubine Li happily welcomed Murong Che into her bedroom in front of everyone.

After she dismissed all the palace servants, she immediately knelt straight in front of the man and said, "Your Majesty, you came here late at night, but is there anything urgent you want me to do?"

Murong Che nodded slightly, "I need to get rid of a few people. Send Doctor Zhang over in a quarter of an hour."

"yes!"

The next day, Xue Qingyao did not receive the news of Xue Youli's death, but heard from the palace maid that Concubine Li was one month pregnant.

It's strange. In the previous life, there was no news of Concubine Li being pregnant until her death. How come she is suddenly revealed to be pregnant at this time?

As a person with memories of past lives, Xue Qingyao's intuition told her that there was something strange about Concubine Li's pregnancy.

But now that Xue Youli has been sent to the cold palace, even if Concubine Li wants to invite her to her favor, there is no need for her to tell such a huge lie, right?

Once the lie is exposed, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor!

Could it be that because Xue Youli entered the palace in this life, the time and frequency of Murong Che's visits to Yongchun Palace were different from those in the previous life, and this variable made Concubine Li pregnant?

Xue Qingyao analyzed the situation calmly for a long time, and was more inclined to the second guess.

However, in the evening, Lian Xin ran in from outside with an anxious look, "Master, it's bad! Mr. Fang bumped into Concubine Li in Yu Garden, and Concubine Li is bleeding!"

"What did you say?"

Xue Qingyao originally felt that something was wrong. After hearing this, she immediately confirmed that Concubine Li was faking her pregnancy!

If Concubine Li had touched someone else today, she would not have meddled in it, but Mr. Fang was hers.

"Let's go! Let's go check it out!"

Concubine Li was the one closest to Xue Youli among the four concubines, and was also the most favored woman in the harem.

If she had been well behaved, I could have let her live longer.

Since she insists on making trouble, maybe we can take this opportunity to get rid of her!

Without this woman getting in the way, he would have more opportunities to get close to Murong Che.

Xue Qingyao was calculating in her heart, quickened her pace, and rushed to Yu Garden with Lian Xin.

At this time, the Yu Garden was in a state of chaos.

Noblewoman Fang had never expected that while she was strolling in the Yu Garden and talking to a maid, Concubine Li suddenly appeared from nowhere and bumped into her.

Before she could react, she heard the maid beside Concubine Li scream, "Ah, blood! Concubine Li is bleeding! Go find the imperial physician!"

It was common knowledge that Murong Che doted on Concubine Li, and even the Imperial Hospital had a special physician for Concubine Li.

Yongchun Palace.

Inside the palace, Concubine Li was lying on the bed with a pale face. Imperial Doctor Zhang was checking her pulse, and his expression became more and more solemn.

Outside the palace, many concubines came upon hearing the news, and Murong Che and Xue Qingyao also arrived.

"How is Concubine Li's health?"

As soon as Murong Che opened his mouth, Doctor Zhang knelt down and apologized to him, "Your Majesty, Concubine Li is having a miscarriage!"
