"Xiao Ye, someone is coming soon, be careful, don't let them have ulterior motives."
The timing of the visitor's arrival was indeed a bit strange. Concubine Xian had been in the harem for many years, so she would not have failed to think of these inappropriate things.
As always, it never goes amiss to be careful.
"Tell the people in the east and west wings to guard the doors tightly and not let anyone in casually."
"yes."
Xiao Ye left in a hurry and came back quickly after giving instructions.
The maid of Concubine Xian just happened to come in.
There were two people in total, one of them was holding a tray with his head bowed respectfully, and on the tray was an exquisite gold-plated box.
The other one said calmly, "Your Highness, these are the South Pearl earrings given to you by the Imperial Concubine. I hope you like them."
As he spoke, he opened the gold-plated box on the tray, revealing a pair of South Pearl earrings that were so beautiful that one could not take their eyes off them.
"Your Highness, please look."
The palace maid holding the tray still kept her head down and slowly approached Su Li.
Suddenly, the tray fell to the ground. A blinding white light flashed, and the maid raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed her fiercely: "Bitch! Die!"
"Noble Concubine Xiao!"
Su Li opened her eyes slightly, and found that the palace maid was actually Concubine Xiao who had long been banished to the cold palace.
Xiao Ye, who was watching closely from the side, was quick-witted and kicked her hard. Concubine Xiao screamed in pain, flew backwards, spit out blood, and fainted.
The palace maid who came with her had a fierce look in her eyes. She quickly drew the soft sword from her waist and approached Su Li.
Just as Xiao Ye was about to fight her, the palace maid suddenly stopped moving, her eyes widened, and she fell to the ground.
There was an arrow stuck behind the heart.
It was an arrow feather exactly the same as the one in her sleeve arrow.
She looked up at the door and saw Ji Tinglan raising his left hand, pointing the arrow from his sleeve at the palace maid on the ground.
Su Li smiled.
"Ji Tinglan, you're back..."
