Hu Xiao glanced at the assassin lying on the ground, then stood up from the chair: "Take him out and deal with him."
The important information he did not get was, it seemed like the person behind the training of these assassins was really considerate. Even if he died, he had to protect him.
The guard walked in and dragged the assassin’s corpse out of the small dark room.
Hu Xiao would not stay any longer at this place, she turned and left the small black room.
With regards to the assassin, Hu Guang ordered his men to thoroughly investigate. Not only did he want to assassinate his sister, he also wanted to assassinate his son.
Since Hu Guang was the ruler and emperor, he was not a fool. Naturally, he knew the relationship between the two, but since the enemy was in the dark, he should not act rashly.
Otherwise, if that person found out on the surface, it would be much more difficult to find him.
Therefore, regarding the matter of the assassins, Hu Guang had found a few of his trusted aides to do it in secret.
On the other side, Hu Xiao who had finished eating her breakfast, was walking in the imperial garden. After the meal was over, it was not easy to exercise, so she decided to take a stroll to recuperate before practicing Tai Chi.
"Quick, quick, hurry up and get it done. The sacrificial ceremony will be held in a few days." The voice of a young eunuch sounded, his voice filled with urgency.
Hu Xiao heard the voice in her ears and wanted to ask something, but she saw a group of eunuchs and palace maid s walking far away with what they were holding in their hands.
Sacrifice?
Hu Xiao frowned slightly. What is this? She had never even heard of it before. Looking at the looks of those young eunuchs and palace maid s, they seemed to value this matter very much.
The corner of Hu Xiao’s mouth raised slightly. Thinking that as the crown prince’s nephew, she should know about it, it just so happened to be the day that he went to check on his injuries.
Hu Xiao turned and left the imperial flower garden and headed towards Hu Qi’s palace.
Hu Qi’s palace was not very far from the Imperial Garden, but it was not very close either. Hu Xiao still had to walk through a few corridors to see the outline of Hu Qi’s palace.
Hu Xiao walked over, and the two guards outside the hall saw Hu Xiao and bowed. "Greetings, Your Highness."
"Mm, get up, is the crown prince here?" Hu Xiao asked.
"Reporting to the princess, the crown prince has gone to the side chamber." One of the guards stood up and said.
A side palace? The injury has yet to recover, so why are you running around?
Hu Xiao turned and left, heading towards the side hall.
Arriving at the side hall, Hu Xiao walked in and saw Hu Qi and Ling Hua fighting in the middle. Ling Hua looked like she was a little angry as her pair of beautiful eyes were staring at Hu Qi.
"Alright, let’s stop this." Ling Hua gasped for breath, this man was clearly injured, yet she could still jump, this injury must be fake.
Hu Qi looked at Ling Hua and chuckled.
"Look, you’ve lost." Hu Qi said arrogantly.
Just as Ling Hua was about to explain, she caught a glimpse of Hu Xiao from the corner of her eyes.
"You’re here." Ling Hua immediately ran over, and when she arrived beside Hu Xiao, she did not forget to make a face at him.
When Hu Qi saw Ling Hua’s grimace, he suppressed the impulse in his heart and obediently walked to Hu Xiao’s side and bowed, "Qi’er greets Aunt."
Ling Hua rolled her eyes at Hu Qi and even stuck out her tongue at him.
Look at it, little man.
Hu Xiao nodded her head: "En, get up."
Hu Xiao naturally saw Ling Hua’s actions from the side.
"Qi’er, how are your injuries?" Hu Xiao asked as she looked at the wound that Hu Qi had wrapped around.
"Thank you for aunt’s concern. It’s already much better now." Hu Qi replied.
"Yes, Qi’er, I have something to ask you." Hu Xiao mysteriously pulled Hu Qi into the room, but Ling Hua consciously did not step forward.
When they reached the room, Hu Xiao asked Hu Qi about the sacrificial ceremony. Only then did Hu Qi realised that his aunt wanted to ask him about this, he thought that his aunt wanted to say something, and should not be fighting with Ling Hua.
Hu Qi told Hu Xiao everything about the sacrificial offering, its large and small processes, as well as its uses.
Hearing that, Hu Xiao nodded, and it turned out to be like that.
But why did my brother suddenly want to hold a sacrifice?
Seeing Hu Xiao and Hu Qi entering the room, Ling Hua walked to the pavilion and sat down.
Just as he sat down, he saw Xiao Yu looking at him with a pair of "ill intentions".
Ling Hua’s hair stood on end when she saw Xiao Yu’s gaze, and she took a step back.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" "Don’t look at me like that, it makes me flustered." The corner of Ling Hua’s mouth twitched, and she sized Xiao Yu up from head to toe.
Xiao Yu looked at her meaningfully and shook her head immediately. "It’s nothing, it’s just that I don’t even know if there’s a person who is liked by others."
Ling Hua looked at Xiao Yu upon hearing her, why was she looking at him?
Could it be that Xiao Yu was foolish enough to say those words?
At this time, Hu Xiao walked out. When Xiao Yu saw him walking over, she said to Hu Xiao: "Hu Xiao, I’ll tell you about the medicine Hu Qi applied these few days. Let Ling Hua come, even the people around do not allow him."
Xiao Yu covered her mouth and laughed, "I think Hu Qi likes our Ling Hua."
Hearing that, Ling Hua looked at Xiao Yu and then looked at Hu Xiao. Ling Hua pointed at her nose with a face full of disbelief: "Hu Qi? Like it? "Me?" fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Xiao Yu nodded his head: "That’s right, Hu Qi likes you."
"Fuck you, how is that possible? What’s more, even if that guy likes me, I still don’t like him." Ling Hua glared at Xiao Yu.
Hu Xiao looked at the two and shrugged helplessly.
She agreed with Xiao Yu’s words, after all, she saw the deep meaning in Qi’er’s gaze of looking at Ling Hua today.
"That’s impossible. Little sister, look at her." Ling Hua walked to Hu Xiao’s side and said a little coquettishly.
"On the contrary, I feel that what Xiao Yu said is not wrong." Hu Xiao laughed, and said to Ling Hua.
Ling Hua pouted and her face turned red, but Hu Xiao and Yue Yang stopped teasing him.
At this time, Hu Qi walked out of the room.
He did not expect that his thoughts would be exposed like this. He felt somewhat embarrassed. Since that was the case, why not take advantage of this opportunity ...
Hu Xiao also looked at the two of them with interest.
Hu Qi walked in front of Ling Hua and scratched his head. "Miss Ling Hua, I ..."
Looking at Ling Hua, he was still at a loss as to what to do. In fact, his performance was very obvious, but Ling Hua actually did not see through it.
"Go away, don’t call me." Seeing Hu Qi’s handsome face turn red like a monkey’s butt, Ling Hua stepped back in disdain.
Her face was covered by a layer of blush as a result of what they had said just now.
Xiao Yu and Hu Xiao looked at the two with interest.
