Although Qing Ning was Xie Ruiyuan's personal bodyguard, Xie Ruiyuan asked Qing Ning to stay with him, but Qing Ning refused and was punished.
It was only because she met him by chance on the way back to Xingying Village that she was able to rescue him. Otherwise, Qingning would have been injured and fainted on the road. She could have easily died and never woken up again.
She had no opinion about Qing Ning, she just didn't want to stay with her. Moreover, she had to save more people and collect gratitude points before she could bring the person back.
Now that Qingning is by her side, she doesn't need to do many things herself. She can just give the task to Qingning and she will do it beautifully for her.
In addition, Xie Ruiyuan also gave her a broken blade of a secret guard, saying that it was the most powerful secret guard in the Palace of Yama.
At that time, she even teased Xie Ruiyuan, saying that there was nothing wrong with that, but a broken blade. The knife in his hand was broken, so how could he protect himself?
Who knew that just as she finished speaking, a group of assassins came, about thirty people, all of them highly skilled in martial arts. Even if she took action herself, she would not be able to solve the problem in a short time.
Who would have thought that the assassins with relatively high martial arts skills could not even last a cup of tea in Canren's hands and all went to meet the King of Hell.
She understood then that the broken blade was actually someone else's blade.
In other words, she is now protected by Qing Ning in the open and Can Ren in the dark. As long as there are not too many assassins, she does not need to worry about her personal safety.
Later, Xie Ruiyuan took the initiative to confess the reason why there were always people trying to assassinate him.
It turned out that the emperor had issued an imperial decree that as long as Xie Ruiyuan settled all the refugees and returned to the capital, he would be made the crown prince.
She still remembered that when she saw the imperial edict, a thousand alpaca horses suddenly ran through her mind, and she didn't know how to describe her feelings in words.
I don’t know if the current emperor has a problem with his brain, or if he really loves the third prince as much as the rumors say.
Otherwise, how could the Third Prince be trapped in such a dangerous situation?
One must know that since ancient times, the road to succession has been filled with blood and gore. Now the emperor has put the third prince on the fire, making him a thorn in the eyes and flesh of the other princes. Naturally, being assassinated has become commonplace. Even she, a pregnant woman, has suffered an unexpected disaster and worries every day whether there will be assassins coming.
It was obviously abnormal for the emperor to do this, so she even came up with a conspiracy theory and told Xie Ruiyuan about it.
Xie Ruiyuan did not refute, so she knew that she had guessed right, and she also knew why Xie Ruiyuan asked him for spiritual spring water before.
It turned out that the emperor's health was getting worse and worse, and the doctors in the entire Imperial Hospital could not find anything. The emperor was furious about this, and the entire Imperial Hospital suffered. Even so, the speed of his body aging was still accelerating.
Hearing Xie Ruiyuan say this, Li Mengyue understood that the emperor had no choice but to issue this imperial decree.
He just wanted to pave the way for his most beloved son so that the third prince could ascend the throne as the crown prince.
People say that the royal family is ruthless, but Li Mengyue sees deep fatherly love in the emperor.
He was also willing to thank Ruiyuan completely. Not only did he give him a lot of spiritual spring water, but he also prescribed a lot of nourishing medicine. Durian also generously took out two.
