Chapter 397 Don’t be polite, just kill them all!
Su Wanyan's attention was still on the two people. Shaoyao nervously leaned against the Empress's side, trying to use her frail body to shield her from any possible accidents. "Your Majesty, don't be afraid. I will protect you."
Gao Hu, as the bodyguard of Prince Xiao, became the emperor's personal guard after following the empress back to the palace. Their mission today was to protect the empress at all times, but they were standing far away and could not hear the conversations here, so naturally they did not know what had happened. However, from the strange behavior of Xiaowu and Shaoyao, it was not difficult to see that an unexpected situation must have occurred.
Gao Hu then walked over and asked in a low voice, "Empress, what happened?"
Su Wanyan was smiling and comforting the frightened Shaoyao when she heard Gao Hu's voice, "You've come just in time. Hurry up and comfort your wife. She was so scared by such a small thing. What a shame."
Gao Hu looked at Shaoyao suspiciously. Seeing that his wife's face had indeed turned pale, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What scared you?"
From their position, they could clearly see everything going on below, and naturally, the people below could also clearly see them. Shaoyao knew that if she continued to react so violently, she would alert Brother Yi and the others before they even got close to the two men. So, she managed to calm herself down and whispered what the Empress had just discovered, "...Brother Hu, what should we do? The Empress can't leave now. If those two men have accomplices, the Empress will be in danger."
The Empress is now pregnant and not only is she weak, but the imperial physician has repeatedly warned her not to be frightened. If someone deliberately creates chaos and scares the Empress, the good complexion she has worked so hard to maintain will be gone.
Gao Hu patted his wife's shoulder and said, "Don't panic. Look, the Queen isn't panicking at all. These are just minor incidents. How can they possibly scare the Queen? Besides, don't we still have people like them standing in front of the Queen? Even if they really have accomplices, they can't get to the Queen's side."
The Emperor's coronation ceremony and the Empress's enthronement ceremony cannot afford to allow any accidents to occur.
Not to mention the three layers of protection circles around the emperor and the empress, just look at the ministers kneeling on the ground. On such an important day as today, if an unexpected situation occurs, they have to sacrifice their lives to protect the emperor. If they are meritorious in saving the emperor, it will be a good opportunity given by God for promotion.
"Yeah, I'm not panicking, why are you panicking?" In the hearts of Shaoyao and Rong Mama, she will always be that weak and helpless little pitiful thing.
Shaoyao nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty is not afraid, and neither am I."
Xiao Wu came back at this time. Seeing Gao Hu coming over, he smiled and said, "Don't worry! Anyone who dares to approach the Empress must pass me first."
While they were chatting and laughing, An Yi had already captured the two men quietly. Because he acted quickly, there was no commotion except for the few young eunuchs standing next to them who were scared.
Su Wanyan watched An Yi and the others take the men away, and motioned for Xiao Wu to follow and take a look. "Xiao Wu, go and take a look. Find out as soon as possible who sent them. If the person behind this is Yuan Dehai, then don't be polite, just kill them all!"
Yuan Dehai failed, but the forces behind him did not completely collapse. Ji Xiaohan was probably looking for an opportunity to eliminate them as well.
