Chapter 586: Can she fly and hide in the ground?
The owner of this face is his best friend.
The two were selected into the Imperial Guard at the same time.
Last night, his best friend drank with him and complained about making his wife angry. His wife has been sleeping in a separate room from him for more than a month.
He even mocked his best friend for being henpecked.
After drinking, his best friend told him that a grown man should not bother with a little woman, and that he should buy his wife a big gold bracelet as an apology after receiving his salary in a few days.
The voice and smile of my best friend are still before my eyes.
The head of his best friend was right in front of him, and those eyes, still open in death, were staring at him.
The leader of the Royal Guards was as if struck by lightning, his whole body stiff.
Xie Yingmian saw his reaction.
She sighed.
Judging from the guard's appearance, he obviously met an acquaintance.
Still a good acquaintance.
When these people were chosen by the emperor to be assassins, they had no choice but to die.
Xie Yingmian said, "Big brother guard, please stop being stunned."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been injured and fainted. Please send someone to send His Royal Highness back to the East Palace as soon as possible."
"Prince Ling and I were not affected at all. It's getting late, so we'll go straight back to Prince Ling's Mansion."
"As for the aftermath of these men in black, it will be up to you to handle it."
"The beasts don't recognize identities. Among those they devour are assassins and guards. Remember to distinguish between assassins and guards, and keep a careful count of the casualties, especially the guards. Treat their wounds if necessary, and provide compensation if necessary."
Xie Yingmian emphasized the words "distinguish carefully".
The leader of the Royal Guards woke up as if from a dream.
He was a smart man and immediately understood what Xie Yingmian meant.
A close friend cannot be an assassin.
The fact that a close friend appeared here dressed in assassin's clothes could only mean that these assassins were designated by the one above.
There is only one outcome for a failed assassin - death, and the whole family will be implicated.
My best friend is dead, and that is an unchangeable fact.
The only thing he could do was to help his best friend change his identity as an assassin.
As long as we find a way to take off the black clothes on our best friend and classify him as a sacrificed guard, we can help him get the pension, and his sister-in-law and children can live safely.
There were about thirty or forty assassins in black.
Some of them were killed by the secret guards.
Most of them were killed by lions, tigers and black wolves.
The wild beasts ate and took as they went, leaving only a few carcasses behind.
The Royal Guards quickly cleaned up the scene.
Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye left the palace unhindered, without encountering any assassination attempts, and arrived safely at Prince Ling's Mansion.
It's late at night.
Dark clouds blocked the moonlight.
As the night watch drum sounded at three o'clock in the morning, the bustling capital city gradually became quiet.
The moonlight was covered by dark clouds and the night was dark.
In the seemingly calm night, undercurrents are surging.
Changle Palace.
Aunt Yu smashed more than a dozen teacups in a row.
"She had clearly entered Changle Palace and met the Queen Mother, so how could she have been lost?"
"Every gate in Changle Palace is guarded by people. How could she, a living person, disappear out of thin air?"
"Look, keep looking for me."
"I will dig three feet into the ground to find her for me."
The people in Changle Palace dispersed tremblingly and continued to search for Xie Yingmian.
However, they searched almost every corner of Changle Palace, even the rat holes, but they still couldn't find any trace of Xie Yingmian.
Aunt Yu was furious.
"Jingping, what's going on?"
"Didn't you lead her to my chambers? How could a living person like her disappear right under your nose?"
Aunt Jingping was crawling on the ground, trembling all over.
After Xie Yingmian left the Empress Dowager's bedroom, she watched Xie Yingmian enter Nanny Yu's yard with great clarity.
She saw it with her own eyes, how could Xie Yingmian not see it?
Jingping had no way to defend herself.
Aunt Yu was very angry and whipped Jingping hard on the back with a whip.
Jingping didn't dare to move, she gritted her teeth and allowed herself to be whipped.
"Report..."
"Report!"
A young eunuch came running over: "Madam Bingyu, I've found Xie Yingmian."
Aunt Yu threw the whip hard at Jingping: "Where is it?"
The young eunuch said, "Madam Yu, Xie Yingmian has already...left the palace."
"Out of the palace?" Aunt Yu was shocked. "She left the palace?"
The young eunuch said, "Yes, yes."
"I have already found out that Xie Yingmian suddenly appeared in Fengyi Palace three quarters of an hour ago."
"No one knows where she appeared from. The people we sent out also ambushed her on the way back to Fengyi Palace. No one saw her, but she just appeared in Fengyi Palace."
"With the Empress here, the servants dare not show up easily."
"Later, the Empress sent Xie Yingmian to Ziyang Palace..."
Bang!
Aunt Yu threw the teacup heavily to the ground.
The teacup shattered into pieces.
"Are you trying to tell me that Xie Yingmian can fly and hide?"
The young eunuch was frightened and dared not say a word. He crawled on the ground trembling.
"Why are you so angry?" came the Queen Mother's voice.
She came in supported by the nanny, her face still pale and bloodless.
Nanny Yu immediately stood up and took Nanny's place, helping the Queen Mother sit down. "You are so seriously ill, why did you get out of bed?"
The Queen Mother coughed a few times.
She handed a piece of paper to Aunt Yu: "This is the prescription Xie Yingmian wrote for me."
When Aunt Yu saw the words on the prescription, her face changed drastically.
