Chapter 323 Good news?!
"Humph."
Concubine Shu snorted coldly, "Enough! I'm tired of hearing this kind of talk!"
"If there's still no news tomorrow..." A cold glint flashed across Concubine Shu's narrowed eyes. "You should know what the consequences will be if you deceive and play tricks on me, right?"
Jieyou felt a panic in his heart.
According to the planned incident, it should have happened by now, so how could it be...
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty." Jieyou was worried, but at the moment this was all she could say.
"Get out!" Concubine Shu said coldly, "I don't want to see you!"
Jieyou immediately retreated, and heard Concubine Shu's disgusted voice coming from behind her again, "Useless thing!"
Jieyou paused slightly, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
After leaving the main hall, Jieyou returned to her room and stayed there until midnight, when she quietly left the room.
She walked towards the backyard of the Yanxi Palace with skillful steps.
Under the dark tree in the backyard, a figure was already waiting. Seeing Jieyou, he asked unhappily, "Didn't I tell you not to look for me if you have nothing to do?"
Jieyou's tone was anxious, but her voice was low. "It's been two days, why hasn't anything happened yet? Didn't they say that as long as that thing is sent there... something will definitely happen?"
"Are you...suspecting something?"
Regarding her situation, Jieyou, who was confident of victory two days ago, is now extremely anxious.
Another person said, "This matter... does have some clues."
"I'll ask myself."
"Go back."
After the man finished speaking, he turned and left.
Even though Jie You was anxious and worried, she didn't dare to say anything at this moment. She could only watch this person leave.
Then she stamped her feet, turned and walked towards her house.
Si Nan followed the woman who met Jie You. He saw the woman turning left and right and leaving the Yanx Palace smoothly.
Then he quickly walked through the palace.
But the further he walked, the more Si Nan felt that this person's route was wrong. Why was this direction...
It was not until Si Nan saw the woman enter a brightly lit palace with his own eyes that he looked up, a complex look flashed in his eyes, and then he followed her again.
He wanted to see who this person who wanted to attack His Highness was going to meet in this palace...
But just as Si Nan was about to follow, he keenly sensed something was wrong.
Someone... is targeting him!
"Who is it?!" An angry shout was heard, followed by a sound of breaking air, and a black figure rushed towards Sinan!
"Someone come! This is the moment!"
Si Nan was extremely grateful that he was wearing black clothes today to facilitate surveillance and not reveal his identity.
Otherwise, I'm afraid it will alert the enemy.
As the visitor shouted angrily, the entire palace was alarmed, and the guards immediately moved and headed towards the direction where Si Nan was.
Seeing this, Si Nan turned around and ran!
He had completely missed the mark on such a big commotion.
There were too many people, so he couldn't act rashly. Besides the possibility of his identity being exposed, he was also often by His Highness's side. If he took action, his identity would likely be discovered.
Sinan is also familiar with the palace.
Even though there were many people searching, Si Nan was able to quickly evade the search thanks to his knowledge of the palace's terrain and his agility.
……
Xiao Ji was still handling government affairs.
Si Nan was sent out by him. He was reading the memorial carefully when he heard a cry of surprise from outside, "There's an assassin!"
Xiao Ji paused holding the pen, frowned and looked outside.
assassin?
He stood up and left the hall. Li Dajian was rushing over. "Your Highness, Crown Prince! Are you okay?"
Xiao Ji walked directly out and headed towards the main hall of the Yangxin Palace. "Is there an assassin? Has it disturbed my father?"
Li Dajian hurriedly said, "In reply to Your Highness, His Majesty has many people waiting on him, and he was not disturbed."
Xiao Ji nodded and walked quickly. Now the entire Yangxin Palace was heavily guarded. Xiao Ji's eyes swept over these guards.
Then he went straight into the main hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
After entering the palace, Xiao Ji discovered that the eldest princess did not return to Fengming Palace tonight, but stayed in Yangxin Palace to accompany the emperor.
"Aunt." Xiao Ji immediately bowed and called out.
The eldest princess seemed to have not rested yet, but because of her age, her face was haggard and tired. She raised her eyes and glanced at Xiao Ji, "What's going on? I heard there was an assassin?"
"To answer the princess, it was the commander of the Jinwu Guard who discovered the thief. He was on duty tonight and happened to discover the thief. He has already led people to hunt down the assassin. I heard that the assassin was alone, so I think he will not be able to escape." Li Dajian answered immediately.
It was only at this moment that Xiao Ji learned the details.
The princess hummed in a dignified voice, "There's an assassin inside the palace! This person is incredibly bold, we must find him!"
Xiao Ji also said, "Aunt is frightened."
The princess shook her head. "I'm fine, but since this person has appeared outside the Yangxin Palace... I'm afraid he's coming for either you or your father."
"The guards at the Yangxin Palace need to be strengthened. Your father is in a critical stage of recovery, and nothing can happen to him!"
Xiao Ji agreed to all of them.
After the princess finished explaining the emperor's affairs, she looked at Xiao Ji and said, "Besides your father, the crown prince also wants..."
The princess paused and asked, "Where is Sinan?"
Si Nan always followed Xiao Ji and was no different from Xiao Ji's shadow, so his sudden absence was particularly obvious.
"Sinan..." Xiao Ji just spoke when Sinan's voice came from outside, "I'm here!"
Si Nan walked in and stood beside Xiao Ji.
The princess finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Sinan, you must protect the prince's safety."
"Yes." Si Nan agreed immediately, "Please rest assured, Princess!"
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside, followed by the slightly deep voice of the Jinwu Guard Commander, "General Li Zhong requests to see the Princess and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
