Ouch.
Fu Sang then remembered this matter.
but……
When she accidentally kicked the assassin away at the banquet, she seemed to catch a glimpse of one in her line of sight.
Wow, a middle-aged man with a stunningly handsome face?
Could that be the original owner's father?
Fu Sang glanced at Nong Hua and lied with a straight expression.
He didn't come today.
Nonghua chewed on the sweet pastry and swallowed it.
How could the prime minister not attend the emperor's birthday banquet?
Judging from the way the Empress looks, she doesn't seem to be lying, so it's probably true.
The flower-loving man was filled with sorrow.
How can I contact the Prime Minister and let him know that my daughter has been banished to the Cold Palace?
Fu Sang, however, was carefree and lay sprawled on the table.
Thinking to myself.
Kicking the assassin away at the banquet must have startled many people.
Fortunately, she was disguised.
This way, the image of the imperial concubine was preserved.
...
...
The palace is in turmoil again tonight.
The presence of assassins at the emperor's birthday banquet proves that the palace security was lax.
The imperial city was filled with a thick stench of blood.
The palace was completely silent. The eunuchs and maids stayed put, while the guards patrolled and searched with torches in hand.
It's unclear whether these guards are looking for an assassin or someone else.
Wolong Hall.
The young emperor, dressed in a black and gold imperial robe, languidly propped his head up with his hand, casually playing with the sachet in his hand.
The palace was brightly lit, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime.
The flickering light of the candle cast a glow on the boy, giving him a halo-like glow.
The boy's thick, raven-feather-like eyelashes drooped slightly, casting a soft shadow, and his thin, crimson lips were slightly pursed.
The air was still, filled with a stern and oppressive atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.
The guard who had been standing in front of the table for a while broke out in a cold sweat.
The young emperor remained silent.
No one dared to make a sound, even their breathing was slowed down, for fear of disturbing the emperor's interest.
The boy's well-defined knuckles opened the sachet.
What fell out of the bulging sachet was not fine powder, but small, delicate pastries.
Puyang Tangying's fair fingertips touched the pastries on the table.
It has a soft texture and a light fragrance.
It reminded him of that cunning yet lovely girl.
The girl was like a gust of wind that suddenly burst into the room, and disappeared in the blink of an eye after she passed by.
"Didn't find it?" came the boy's lazy yet cold voice.
The head guard's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed hard.
"Your Majesty... Your subordinate has searched the entire palace..."
An inkstone hit the head guard on the head.
The young emperor's exceptionally handsome face revealed a violent expression, his thin lips pressed into a straight line.
Rage, restraint, and rampant killing intent.
"Keep searching!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Ignoring his head injury, the head guard quickly led his guards out of the palace.
Grandpa Gao quickly brought over a pill.
"emperor."
The young emperor twirled a dark brown pill between his fingers.
Eunuch Gao hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please take it quickly."
These are pills used to suppress the toxins in the emperor's body. Whenever the emperor is in a bad mood, violent emotions will surge forth.
The head guard just barely escaped with his life.
Puyang Tang swallowed the pill and rubbed his handsome eyebrows.
"Grandpa Gao, can you recognize her?"
On the table was a portrait of a girl drawn with a wolf-hair brush, so lifelike that it was almost identical to the portrait of Fusang at the banquet.
Especially those bright, expressive eyes.
After thinking carefully, Eunuch Gao said, "This servant is useless; I can't remember where I've seen her before..."
His gaze fell on the sachet on the table.
"This sachet looks somewhat familiar."
Puyang Tang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Speak."
