The man in black was surprised by the imperial concubine's reaction. He looked at her in astonishment. The imperial concubine held her forehead and sat down.
"Send the order, do everything in your power to kill him outside the palace!"
The man in black took the order and retreated. The imperial concubine couldn't calm down for a long time.
After leaving the palace, the men in black began to look for Shao Lecheng. The people in the Prince's Mansion were also looking for him, but Shao Lecheng was not hiding anywhere. He just slept on the roof and kept drinking. Occasionally, people passed by on the street, but he was too lazy to look.
Until later he fell asleep, and a fight started on the roof, which woke him up. He opened his eyes and saw that one side was composed of men in black, and the other side was composed of men wearing the uniforms of the Prince's guards.
He squinted his eyes and sat up, watching the two people fighting and struggling, reaching to the side and drinking sip by sip.
After taking a few sips, Shao Lecheng found that there was no more wine. He felt disappointed, threw away the wine jug, and flew to the opposite side.
The people fighting unexpectedly had another person join in the fight. Shao Lecheng attacked the man in black, who was quickly defeated and fell off the roof.
Shao Lecheng flew down and stood beside him. Someone from the Crown Prince's Mansion said, "Master Shao, our Crown Prince and Crown Princess are very worried about you and have been looking for you."
Shao Lecheng was a little shaky and smelled of alcohol. He asked, "What do you want me for?"
"Out of concern, Master Shao sneaked into your house at night and was discovered by people from our Prince's Mansion, so we tracked him here. Master Shao, this person is coming for you!"
Breaking into the house in the middle of the night, it's obvious he has bad intentions.
He looked down at the man in black on the ground, then squatted down and asked, "Who sent you?"
The other party obviously had no intention of confessing the truth. He was about to take out the poison that had been prepared in his mouth and commit suicide by taking the poison, but Shao Lecheng had seen too many tricks like this.
He reached out and pinched his chin, forcing him to be unable to close his mouth. He took off his veil with contempt and saw a strange face.
In the Prince's Mansion, Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen had gone to bed early. At this time, someone kept knocking on the bedroom door. The door was quickly opened. Jing Yuchen was a little surprised to see the person standing at the door.
Shao Lecheng had a lazy expression and touched his nose: "This man assassinated me, can you help me interrogate him?"
Jing Yuchen lowered his eyes to glance at the man in black who was tied up and thrown on the ground, then nodded.
Ni Yueshan also heard the noise and walked out. Jing Yuchen took the initiative to bring a chair to Ni Yueshan.
Ni Yueshan sat down and asked, "This guy is really miserable, being arrested alone?"
Jing Yuchen stood speechlessly behind Ni Yueshan: "Do you have any tricks for interrogating me?"
The last time Ni Yueshan interrogated those women, he was about to get the results, but then an assassin came to silence them, and Ni Yueshan had a shadow in his heart.
"Ahem, why don't we send someone to the roof to check and see if anyone will suddenly appear and kill us."
Ni Yueshan's level of caution was somewhat surprising, so Shao Lecheng took the initiative to fly up and start searching for people.
Duan Gouqiong had fallen asleep, but when the servant informed her that Shao Lecheng had returned, she immediately got up and quickly came over here.
When she arrived and saw Shao Lecheng, her eyes lit up immediately: "Are you okay? What are you playing at disappearing?"
The atmosphere at the scene did not seem tense or depressing at all, it even looked a bit cheerful. The assassin looked at a group of people who seemed to be talking and laughing as if nothing had happened. He clenched his fists, but could not break free from the ropes.
Duan Gouqiong noticed the person lying on the ground and looked surprised: "Night clothes? Tied up? Is this a thief?"
"Yes!" Ni Yueshan responded. Duan Gouqiong's eyes lit up, and he seemed to be immediately interested. He said, "Let me do it. I'll judge it!"
She rolled up her sleeves and asked the servant beside her for a whip. The whip was quickly brought to her. Shao Lecheng and others were free to wait for Duan Gouqiong to whip her to the results.
Inside the palace, people became uneasy after the Imperial Noble Concubine sent someone to assassinate Shao Lecheng. She did not allow Shao Lecheng to return to the palace, but she was not clear about the situation outside the palace, so she could not fall asleep for a long time after nightfall.
Immediately, someone was sent over to investigate the new results outside the palace.
She also notified Jing Chengzhi and told him what she had done and Shao Lecheng's identity.
Jing Chengzhi also rested early. Someone came and delivered the imperial concubine's order, which surprised him. "Prince? My brother? Are you sure?"
Jing Chengzhi stared in surprise, thinking of many possibilities, but he never thought that Shao Lecheng was also a prince.
After his stunned mood gradually calmed down, he asked again, "Then...why did Mother send someone to assassinate him? How did he offend Mother?"
Shao Lecheng's return would not threaten his position, because he was just a small prince and the crown prince was Jing Yuchen, so Shao Lecheng could not influence him.
Faced with Jing Chengzhi's doubts, the person who came to report was also embarrassed: "I don't know either, Prince. You have many things outside the palace that are easier to handle than the Imperial Concubine. Prince, why don't you think about what to do?"
Jing Chengzhi frowned and waved his hand: "Got it, leave now."
The man did not leave immediately, but said hesitantly: "But, the person who went to assassinate tonight has lost contact!"
So it's possible that it's been exposed...
Jing Chengzhi looked at the person who was speaking in surprise, "You're saying such a drastic change!"
He slapped him and felt extremely depressed.
"Back off, back off, I'll find a way to find the person!"
The people sent by the Imperial Concubine were different from the women who framed Shao Lecheng. They had undergone rigorous training and naturally did not take ordinary criminal laws into consideration.
