Chapter 418: The Female Sea King and the Handsome Guard (18)
The guards of Yonghe Palace immediately echoed, "That's right, how brave of you to be!"
Bai Xirou nodded, revealing a sly smile.
"Haha, now we have something interesting to watch. Let them fight. We can just sit back and watch the fight and reap the benefits."
However, just as she was feeling proud, several guards suddenly broke into the palace.
Bai Xirou stood up from her chair abruptly, glared at these uninvited guests, and shouted, "What are you doing?"
A guard replied respectfully: "Princess, we are here to search the palace on the orders of His Majesty."
Bai Xirou was immediately furious when she heard this. She was about to explode, but was quickly stopped by the guard beside her.
He advised softly: "Your Highness, don't be impulsive. It's better to be patient now."
Although Bai Xirou was unwilling, she also understood the interests involved and could only suppress her anger.
She watched helplessly as the guards rummaged through her palace, searching everywhere.
She was panicking, her eyelids suddenly began to twitch, and an ominous premonition came over her.
She winked at the eunuch beside her, who understood her intention and quietly slipped out of the palace while the guards were busy...
Unexpectedly, when the young eunuch hurriedly arrived at Xingqing Palace, he was surprised to find that the situation there was far worse than he had imagined.
The guards in charge of the search turned almost the entire palace upside down, leaving it in a mess.
Chen Xianjun stood quietly by the side, his face as pale as paper, as if all the blood had been lost.
At this moment, the guards at the door noticed the little eunuch who was peeking out. The poor little eunuch didn't even have time to utter a scream before he was quickly taken away.
"Found it!" Suddenly, a guard shouted excitedly.
The loud shout made Chen Xianjun tremble all over and shake his body.
I saw that the guard was holding a white porcelain bottle in his hand.
The captain of the guards carefully took the porcelain bottle and examined the medicine inside.
Then he raised his head, glanced at Chen Xianjun, and ordered: "Go quickly, give this to the imperial physician for examination immediately!"
......
The atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace was tense and depressing.
A guard came hurriedly, holding an exquisite porcelain bottle in his hand, and saluted Bai Fengzhi who was sitting on the dragon throne and said, "Your Majesty, this is what we found in Xingqing Palace."
Bai Fengzhi took the porcelain bottle and examined it carefully. Then he looked at the guard and asked in a serious tone, "Has the imperial physician examined it?"
The guard replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, we have asked the royal physician to examine the case. This is the poison that the eldest prince was poisoned with."
Hearing this news, Bai Fengzhi showed a trace of anger on his face, and he immediately ordered: "Okay! Give this medicine to the imperial physician and ask them to prepare an antidote immediately!"
The guards obeyed the order and left. Bai Fengzhi was the only one left in the room. She frowned.
Thinking back to when she ascended the throne, it was also such a bloody time, her heart suddenly ached.
......
"Reporting to His Majesty, Xingqing Palace and Yonghe Palace have been sealed by His Majesty. No one is allowed to enter, let alone leave."
Su Shilin sneered, "Got it, add some more fuel to the fire and make them burn more vigorously."
"Yes."
One day later, "Your Majesty, Lord Chen Xianjun does not admit that this poison is his, and the imperial doctors have studied it for a day but have not been able to come up with an antidote. What do you think?"
Bai Fengzhi sneered, "Very good, very good, the evidence is conclusive, but he still refuses to admit it. I will go and ask him personally."
At this time, a eunuch came in and said, "Your Majesty, Feng Can, the commander of the Palace Guard, wants to see you."
Bai Fengzhi sat down and said, "Let her in."
Feng Can walked in and bowed, "Your Majesty, the arrows of the assassins at the scene have been taken away for identification."
Bai Fengzhi raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong?"
"Yes......"
"What is it?"
"These are the batch of arrow feathers that the Five Cities Military Department lost some time ago."
"what?"
"Also, those assassins all committed suicide by biting themselves with poison, but one of the assassins had a token on his body."
Bai Fengzhi frowned, "Where's the token?"
Feng Can took it out from his bosom and handed it to the eunuch.
The eunuch took the token and handed it to the king.
Bai Fengzhi looked at the token. There was nothing special about it, just an ordinary token. But suddenly he found a small word "Yue" in the lower right corner of the token.
She said angrily, "Go...go and confine the princess."
Su Shilin curled the corners of his lips after knowing this. All those who have harmed my son must be buried with him?
The changes in the capital did not affect Yan Xue's family.
Two mule carts were moving slowly towards Kuncheng. It didn't look like they were fleeing at all, but more like they were on a picnic.
One day, they came to a clear stream. Yan Ding suddenly felt like a child again. He picked up the net, caught two fat fish, and began to grill the fish with great interest.
Yan Feng and Lin Changqing felt very happy watching the children playing and fighting by the river.
They are usually busy with business matters and rarely have the opportunity to relax like this.
Yan Xue watched Yan Ding eating with gusto and couldn't help but feel her stomach growling.
"Big sister, let me give you a taste!"
Yan Xue raised her eyebrows. Although the grilled fish didn’t look very good, it smelled delicious.
She took a bite with difficulty, but after chewing it a few times, she immediately spat it out.
Seeing this, Yan Ding stamped his feet in anger and said, "Sister, even if my food is not tasty, you shouldn't be so disgusted that you want to vomit!"
At this time, Lin Changqing noticed his daughter's abnormality and hurried over to ask with concern: "Xiaoxue, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Feng also asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Xiaoxue, how are you?"
Yan Xue opened the water bag as if nothing had happened, took a sip of water and said, "It's okay, maybe I'm pregnant."
Hearing this, Lin Changqing showed an ecstatic expression on his face and said excitedly: "Really? Xiaoxue, are you really pregnant?"
Yan Feng was also happy, "Our Yan family finally has a successor. Whose child is it?"
Yan Xue stammered, "It's Yan Jue's."
She has only given her body to Yan Jue, but her family doesn't know about it.
When Yan Feng heard his daughter's answer, an expression of surprise appeared on his face.
She looked at Yan Xue in disbelief and asked in a trembling voice, "What? It's his?"
Yan Feng frowned, sent Yan Ding away, and said in a low voice,
"It doesn't matter whose child it is, but it can't be Yan Jue's. If he is really the eldest prince, how can we protect this child in the future?"
