Upon hearing this...
The eldest princess paused for a moment, looking surprised, then smiled and said, "I have followed the Empress Dowager to worship Buddha everywhere, and I believe my character is not bad."
I never expected Princess Consort Han to see things so clearly; I am truly impressed.
"Your Majesty is too kind, and I am just stating the facts."
"Hmm! Not bad, along the way, I..."
ah!
"There's an assassin! Protect the Empress Dowager!"
The princess hadn't finished speaking.
A scream and shout suddenly rang out from inside the hall.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng and the Princess were both taken aback.
Realizing what had happened, the two of them suddenly stood up and quickly headed towards the main hall.
However, the two had only just moved.
Then a dart and an arrow were shot at them simultaneously.
"Your Highness, Princess, be careful."
Qinglian, Ningxin, and the two maids beside the princess shouted in unison.
Upon hearing this, the two prepared to dodge.
but.
After Qinglian and the others finished shouting, they all rushed out to block the darts and arrows that were being fired at them.
Seeing that the enemy's attack was being blocked by their maids, the two women did not linger and quickly slipped into the main hall.
now.
Inside the main hall.
Two masked men attacked the nuns who were protecting the Empress Dowager.
Upon entering and seeing the scene, both Ye Qingcheng and the Eldest Princess turned cold.
Without saying a word, he approached the two masked men.
but.
When the two masked men saw Ye Qingcheng and her companion enter, they were initially taken aback. Then, after exchanging a glance, they turned and quickly fled.
Um?
Upon seeing this, Ye Qingcheng and the Eldest Princess frowned slightly, looking quite puzzled.
But at this moment.
They didn't think too much about it and first looked at the Empress Dowager.
"Mother, Grandmother, are you alright?"
The Empress Dowager shook her head: "I have nothing to do. Qing'er, quick, quick, go and see that Abbess Lingxin and her little masters."
"Yes, Grandmother."
Ye Qingcheng responded, then squatted down to examine the unconscious nuns and the nun Lingxin.
A moment later.
Ye Qingcheng stood up.
"Qing'er, how is she?"
"Grandmother, don't worry, they're just unconscious, nothing serious."
"Good, that's good." The Empress Dowager breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
And just then...
Bang bang bang!
A sound of fighting erupted outside the hall.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng and the Princess exchanged another glance.
The Empress Dowager, on the other hand, was furious: "How dare you! Who are you to trespass on Miaoyin Temple?"
"Mother, please don't be angry. Your son will go out and see what's wrong."
"Your Majesty, why don't you stay and keep Grandmother company? Your niece-in-law, please leave."
“You…no, who knows, it might be…” The eldest princess shook her head.
"I know, it's nothing. I just went out to take a look. Besides, Qinglian and Ningxin are with me, so I'll be fine. And with you accompanying Grandmother, I feel at ease."
"No need for you, girl. I'll go out with you and see who these reckless fools are who dare to trespass on Miaoyin Temple."
As the Empress Dowager spoke, she stomped her dragon-headed cane, her aged demeanor suddenly gaining momentum, as if the dragon-headed cane was her only support.
"Granny Sun, help me out."
"yes."
Without waiting for Ye Qingcheng and the Princess's consent, the Empress Dowager bypassed them and walked towards the palace gate.
Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng and the Princess felt helpless and followed them out.
The group arrived at the door.
They then saw four masked men fighting against several women they didn't recognize.
Among the four masked men were two who had just escaped from the main hall.
Qinglian, Ningxin, and the two maids of the eldest princess stood at the palace gate, watching the fighting.
Um?
After Ye Qingcheng and the other two came out, they looked at the fighting arena with a puzzled expression.
Qinglian, Ningxin, and Changgong's maidservant all curtsied to the three of them when they came out.
"Empress Dowager, Princess, Princess Consort."
"Um!"
The three nodded to them.
Ye Qingcheng asked in confusion, "Qinglian, Ningxin, what exactly is going on? Who are they?"
Qinglian smiled and replied, "Yes, Your Highness, those are my fellow disciples."
"Sisters from the same sect?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Ye Qingcheng nodded upon hearing this.
At this moment, she understood what Qinglian meant by "fellow disciples." She figured it probably meant Qin Mohan's people!
After she understood, she didn't ask any more questions, since the eldest princess and the empress dowager were both there.
After all, it is a major taboo for the emperor for a prince to cultivate his own power outside.
Even if she didn't understand why those women were there, she didn't dare ask them in front of the Empress Dowager and the Princess.
This way.
On the fighting field.
The women Qin Mohan sent were indeed skilled in martial arts. They had exchanged over a hundred blows with the four men, and neither side seemed to have gained the upper hand.
At this moment, Ye Qingcheng looked at the fighting arena with a slight frown.
She was filled with doubt and couldn't understand who it was or why they had attacked her time and time again.
I ask you, since she came into this world she has been practicing medicine and saving lives, and she has never offended anyone, so why do people always want to kill her?
Of course, it's even more impossible if it's because of the original owner, because in the original owner's memories, the original owner was always bullied by Ye Guoxiang's family, had no talent, and had no sharp edge to show, so there was no way to offend anyone.
