Looking at the huge palace, the once glorious and magnificent appearance was no longer there, and Chaoge's mouth curled up slightly.
"You're actually here?! How dare you show up!"
Suddenly, a duck-like voice sounded behind Chaoge. Chaoge frowned, turned around slowly, and looked into the eyes of the eunuch who was surprised by the call.
This person was the eunuch who brought Chaoge back from the city gate.
Chaoge looked at the eunuch's furious expression, and the corners of his lips, which were originally slightly curved, became even more upward.
"Why? Are you surprised that I'm here? I wasn't locked up in that side hall by you and burned to ashes, so you look so horrified and shocked?"
Looking at Chaoge who was standing in front of him, unharmed and still arrogant, the eunuch Daqing was so angry that he raised his orchid finger and started to tremble!
"You, you, you, what nonsense are you talking about? You are such a bold and unruly person, you actually dared to set fire to Fengqi Palace and murder the Queen Mother. Do you think you have too many brains?
Someone, come here! Someone, come here! Hurry up and capture this female assassin for me!"
Looking at the furious eunuch Daqing, Chaoge laughed out loud. At the same time, a group of guards gathered around Chaoge, but there was no trace of smile on her face.
"Haha, now you are the thief crying thief, right? If so, then go to the emperor and talk to him first."
Chaoge grabbed Daqing from the ground and ran straight to the emperor's bedroom. Seeing this, the guards behind him swarmed after him.
But who knew that the emperor was not in the bedroom. Chaoge, who had just arrived at the door of the bedroom, was stopped outside by the emperor's guards. Daqing kept shouting to catch the assassin and called out everyone in the emperor's bedroom.
At this time, the guards who were chasing Chaoge behind him also landed around Chaoge one after another and directly surrounded Chaoge.
Chaoge did not take these guards seriously, but looked at the person walking out of the bedroom with surprise.
This person was the guard who took Chaoge to the pleasure boat when he first met Mr. Shen by the moat.
Looking at Chaoge in front of him, who was holding a eunuch in his hand, the guard had a look of suspicion on his stern face and looked Chaoge up and down.
"Guard Zhang, hurry up, this woman is an assassin, arrest her quickly."
When Daqing saw Guard Zhang coming out, he burst into tears of joy and shouted to Guard Zhang hurriedly.
Chaoge smiled coldly, "Guard Zhang, I'm here to see Mr. Shen, oh no, I'm here to see the emperor. This eunuch tricked me into the palace, locked me up in a side hall, and set me on fire. Now he's saying that I set fire to Fengqi Palace. I won't take the blame. Your emperor and the regent saw it with their own eyes. I was rescued from the side hall by the regent and the queen of Xiling."
Daqing!
Hearing Chaoge's words, Daqing, who wanted to bite back, suddenly changed his expression!
If this is the case, how can we punish Chaoge?
"Your Majesty is not in the palace, leave this person to me, I will take you there."
Chaoge was still wondering whether this guard would protect the dog beside the Queen Mother, but who knew that this guard would be so easy to talk to.
"Thank you, Guard Zhang." After saying that, Chaoge did not intend to hand over Daqing. Instead, he continued to carry Daqing and followed Guard Zhang to another palace.
The atmosphere outside the palace was extremely tense. The palace servants were waiting in place, with their heads down, ready to take orders at any time, not daring to breathe.
The imperial physicians who were coming in and out were all jogging, and there were soft sobbing sounds in the palace. If you didn't know, you would think someone was about to die.
"Miss Yun, please allow me to go in and report to His Majesty first."
Chaoge nodded, probably guessing that the Queen Mother must be being treated inside at this moment.
However, she really wanted to go in and let the Queen Mother see her with her own eyes!
Seeing that she was unharmed, the Queen Mother would surely be so angry that she would have a heart attack on the spot, right?
The wood-related skills were activated, and following the figure of Guard Zhang, Chaoge's sight spread into the palace.
At this time, in the inner hall of the palace, a group of eunuchs, palace maids and imperial doctors were kneeling on the ground. The empress dowager on the bed had opened her eyes. Half of her face was burned beyond recognition. Even her neck and exposed hands were covered with wounds. The funniest thing was that the empress dowager's hair was gone, just like burnt corn silk, with only a few remaining on her scalp, which was very funny.
I just don’t know if it’s the same on her body. Unfortunately, the Empress Dowager was covered with a thin quilt.
Through the quilt, Chaoge could clearly see the scene under the quilt. Most of the body and one leg were covered with burn marks, the skin and flesh were rolled up, bloody and charred, black and bloody... It was simply horrible!
With such medical conditions, Chaoge knew that even if she was the queen mother, there was probably only a small chance that she would have a chance to continue living.
Fortunately, it is still winter. If it were summer, the infection from her festering skin would be enough to take her life.
The more Chaoge thought about it, the happier he felt.
Although she is a doctor, she deserves it if she is soft-hearted towards an old witch who wants to set fire to her and burn her to death!
"Your Majesty, Miss Yun requests to see you."
"Miss Yun..."
After hearing the report from Guard Zhang, the emperor's already ugly expression became even more confused. Perhaps it was because he had been in this inner hall for such a short while and heard the empress dowager calling out for a while, which had caused his memory to become a little confused.
"It's Yunchang's daughter..."
The emperor suddenly realized, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes!
"Why is she here at this time? Oh, I still don't know why she was in that side hall before? And why did the Queen of Xiling and the Regent suddenly rush in just to save her?"
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten? When you wrote the marriage certificate to the Regent, the princess's name was..."
Guard Zhang didn't have any doubts before, but after hearing what Chaoge said just now, even the Regent went in to save the woman, Guard Zhang had to think more.
As soon as these words were spoken, the emperor felt his mind suddenly become clear, and he couldn't help but look shocked!
"That's right! Yun Ge, Yun Chaoge! Why am I so confused!"
“Your Majesty can’t be blamed for this. Perhaps Your Majesty would not have thought that such a coincidence would happen.
Besides, the Regent Princess deliberately concealed her real name. According to Yun Chang's previous identity, no one could possibly associate the Regent Princess with Yun Chang's daughter."
"Yes, yes, you are right. Where is she now?"
