Chapter 30: The Angry Emperor with No Heir x The Cannon Fodder Female Match and the Concubine's Daughter 30

After Jin Ling left, Jin Jin Qiao walked up to the man in black lying on the ground.

The man in black had died, and his head had turned twice.

Although the face was covered, Aunt Qiao knew that the face under the veil must be very scary.

"My lady, please sit down and rest for a while."

Yinling supported Aunt Qiao, and was a little worried that her own wife might be frightened.

Aunt Qiao nodded. She did feel a little uncomfortable, especially her waist, which hurt a lot. It was probably because she had just exerted too much force and choked on her breath.

Mo Liyuan arrived quickly, followed by the palace guards.

Seeing several palace maids lying around Aunt Qiao, he was startled and ran over quickly.

"My dear, how are you? Are you injured?"

Aunt Qiao shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but Aunt Liu and the others must have been drugged."

Mo Liyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad my beloved is okay."

"Your Majesty, the one on the ground is the man in black who attacked me. Two others have escaped."

Mo Liyuan nodded, his face full of murderous intent, "I already know, Jinling has already reported it, don't worry, my beloved, I have already guessed who did it."

After Mo Liyuan finished speaking, he walked up to the man in black and pulled off his face mask.

"hiss"

There was a sound of gasps all around, and even Mo Liyuan's mouth twitched.

Aunt Qiao stuck her head out to take a look and almost vomited.

Oh my god, it's so horrible, his face skin is cracked and turned into mud. She knew that the face of the man in black was scary, but she didn't expect it to be so disgusting.

"Tsk"

In the end, Aunt Qiao couldn't help it and bent over to vomit.

"My beloved concubine," Mo Liyuan quickly stood up and supported Qiao Jinjin, saying, "Let's go back to Kunning Palace first. I will take care of this."

"Yinling, go and call the imperial physician immediately."

Aunt Qiao was now feeling uncomfortable and disgusted. She nodded and said, "Then I will go back first."

"Tsk"

All the way back to Kunning Palace, Aunt Qiao kept vomiting, and she didn't feel better until she lay on the couch and drank the fruit tea that Jin Ling brought over.

Mo Liyuan didn't return to Kunning Palace until midnight, when Jinjin Qiao had already woken up.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Mo Liyuan's expression was clear: "There is no trace of the two escaped men in black. It's very strange."

"How is my beloved concubine? Has the imperial physician examined her?"

Qiao Jinjin shook her head. "The imperial physician said that I am fine, just a little tired. What about the Queen Mother? How is she?"

"Ah," Mo Liyuan sighed, "My mother's arm was slightly injured. She will rest in Ci'an Palace today and come to Kunning Palace in a few days."

Aunt Qiao nodded, looked up at Mo Liyuan for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, don't you have anything to ask?"

Mo Liyuan pursed his lips and said, "If my beloved concubine doesn't want to talk about it, I won't ask."

Aunt Qiao narrowed her eyes and said with a smile, "It was indeed I who beat up that man in black."

"I have always had a secret."

Seeing Mo Liyuan's eyes light up, Qiao Jinjin continued, "I am very strong sometimes. When the man in black attacked me before, I was anxious and didn't control my strength."

"I got choked because I was pushing too hard."

"What?" Mo Liyuan was shocked when he heard that Aunt Qiao had a stitch in the side.

Seeing Mo Liyuan's surprised look, Qiao Jinjin said speechlessly, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the child is fine."

"But the Emperor said that the two escaped men in black have disappeared, which is indeed suspicious."

Mo Liyuan nodded and said, "I have already asked the guards to search the palace."

"System, can you check where those two men in black are hiding?"

[Sorry host, this is not within the service scope of this system, but I can remind the host that there is a secret passage in the palace]

Aunt Qiao raised her eyebrows. This information was more useful than telling her the hiding place of the man in black.

"Your Majesty, do you think there is a secret passage connecting the palace to the outside world?"

Mo Liyuan was shocked when he heard this. After thinking for a moment, he hugged Qiao Jinjin tightly.

"My beloved concubine is really smart, why didn't I think of this?"

"My beloved, please go to bed early. I still need to take care of some things."

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, where Concubine Zhong was staying, Prime Minister Qiao had been waiting for a long time, but the man in black still hadn't returned.

Originally, this secret passage was prepared for the favored Concubine Yuan in the palace. However, after meeting Concubine Yuan at the palace banquet, he wanted to change the plan, but his master said that the plan would not change.

It was not until midnight that rustling sounds were heard from the secret passage.

Prime Minister Qiao was cheered up and quickly opened the bed.

"What's up?"

The two men in black supported each other and crawled out of the secret passage. They looked seriously injured.

"What's going on?" Prime Minister Qiao looked unhappy, especially when he saw that only two men in black came back, but there was no sign of Concubine Yuan.

The two men in black looked at each other, knelt down and said, "We have failed."

"There are two maids beside Princess Yuan who are highly skilled in martial arts. They must be the secret guards arranged by the dog emperor."

Prime Minister Qiao's face turned pale and blue, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You three can't handle two female secret guards? And one of them died?"

The man in black was so scared that he trembled and said, "I know my crime, but...but Concubine Yuan must have some kung fu skills. Ah Ling was killed by Concubine Yuan."

"What?" Prime Minister Qiao took two steps back in shock and denied it fiercely, "Impossible, how could she, a concubine's daughter who has been abused by the emperor for so many years, know kung fu?"

The two men in black stopped talking. They didn't know why Princess Yuan knew Kung Fu. This was clearly not what they had investigated.

Seeing this, Concubine Zhong comforted him, "Master, the most urgent thing now is to tell the master about the situation and let him make the decision."

Prime Minister Qiao frowned and said, "You are right, the master is still waiting for news."

He looked up at the two men in black and said, "You guys stay here to heal your wounds, don't show up for now."

"Zhongli, go find the master and tell him what happened."

Leng Gongyun sat in the room playing chess with himself.

Hearing some movement outside the window, he quickly got up and opened the window.

"Why are you here? What's going on?"

Zhong Li knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Master, the operation failed."

Leng Gongyun narrowed his eyes, a chill ran through his body as he asked, "Why did it fail?"

Zhongli did not dare to hide anything and told the whole story.

Leng Gongyun had a playful smile on his face. "It's quite interesting, Princess Yuan..."

"Is he sure that this Princess Yuan is the original concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Zhong Li lay on the ground, not daring to raise his head, and said, "Yes, it was indeed her, but Prime Minister Qiao said that Princess Yuan was a useless concubine before, and Prime Minister Qiao also felt strange."

Leng Gongyun turned around and sat on the chair, returning to his usual lazy look. "I understand. You go back first. I will inform you when there is a plan for the next step."

"Yes, I will take my leave."

Zhongli jumped down from the window and disappeared into the night.

After searching the palace all night, neither the secret passage nor the man in black was found.

After a night's rest, Qiao Jinjin had calmed down. She heard that Mo Liyuan had been busy all night but had made no progress. After thinking for a while, she said to Jinling, "Accompany me to see the emperor."
