Oh, I want to threaten her in the next life.

Xie Shizhu hid the sachet back in her sleeve, straightened the gauze on her face, and then walked slowly upstairs.

As soon as I stepped up with my front feet, I saw King Yi not far away, foaming at the mouth and crawling on the table.

He was surrounded by royal guards, each asking the waiters around him, and the entire theater had been sealed off.

Preparing to capture the person who assassinated King Yi.

Xie Shizhu suddenly stopped and then heard the conversation between the guards and Wu Zuo.

"King Yi has been hit by a poisonous needle. Once he is hit by the needle, he will quickly suffocate to death. The person who can have this needle must be..."

As for who it was, the guard knew it very well and his expression immediately changed.

After hearing this, Xie Shizhu was startled and thought, has Song Yan been here?

She suddenly remembered the waiter she had bumped into before. He was obviously not good-looking, but his eyes were out of place.

I almost forgot that for Song Yan, the disguise was easy to come by.

No, she must leave here quickly, otherwise she will probably die soon if she is involved in this murder.

She was the one who met King Yi. If the guards later removed her veil and discovered that she was the concubine of King Xian, they would put her in jail without saying a word.

After all, to all the officials, the virtuous king is just a useless king without any ability.

Not to mention that she was a concubine who slept with the wise king.

Maybe when the time comes, these officials will let her take the blame in order to find a scapegoat to explain to the emperor.

Suddenly a guard said: "The prince is here too, what should we do with him?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the official's face turned pale and he said nervously: "He is the prince, we can only let him go."

"yes."

Xie Shizhu took advantage of the guards and officials to talk and quickly hid in a private room.

She ducked in and closed the door, then heard two guards passing by the door and stopping again.

Then, one of the guards said, "I just saw a figure entering this room. Let's go in and take a look."

The next second, another guard turned around and walked towards the private room where Xie Shizhu was.

Xie Shizhu was so frightened that he couldn't breathe smoothly.

When the guard was about to open the door, a man's voice sounded from outside, which was very familiar.

"What are you doing here?" Song Wenyan's tone was unquestionable.

When the two guards saw that it was the prince, they quickly knelt down and prostrated themselves on the ground. They said respectfully: "Go back to your highness. This servant is looking for the assassin who killed King Yi."

Song Wenyan was silent for a few seconds, his eyes moved to the closed door, and he could vaguely see the figure reflected in the room.

He slowly looked away and said, "Assassin?"

Xie Shizhu heard their conversation in the house and hurried to the window. Before they came in, he opened the window and jumped out without hesitation.

When he heard the sound of the window opening, Song Wenyan waited quietly for a few minutes before letting the guard in.

When the guards entered, it was completely empty, with no one around at all.

When Xie Shizhu returned to the palace, he quickly changed his clothes and lay down as if nothing had happened.

Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the door of the house, and Xie Shizhu froze up.

Immediately, Song Yan opened the door and came in from the outside.

Song Yan was dressed in plain clothes, and her hair was slightly damp. She had obviously just taken a shower, and she had a fresh fragrance on her body.

After coming in, he looked at Xie Shizhu with gentle eyes.

Xie Shizhu was a little confused. He quickly stood up, his face was full of confusion, and then he gestured slowly and asked: "My lord, why did you come to me?"

Song Yan closed the door gently, and just when he was about to speak, there was a sudden commotion outside.

There were many footsteps passing by, and their noisy voices reached the ears of the two of them.

"Someone saw the assassin who assassinated King Yi entering Prince Xian's Mansion. We were ordered to search for the assassin in the manor. If there is any offense, please forgive me..."

The official seemed to be talking to the princess outside.

Because of this movement, everyone in the palace woke up from their sleep and ran out to see what was going on.

When Chao Lan heard what the official said, she didn't ask any more questions. She nodded and said, "Hurry up and don't disturb the peace of the palace."

The official saluted: "Yes."

A dozen guards looked at each other, and then quickly looked for the wise king among the people outside.

Unfortunately, they looked around and saw no sign of the wise king at all.

They didn't really come to the palace to find assassins, but they came to the palace on the orders of the prince.

The purpose can be imagined.

The prince himself did not like the wise king and always thought that Song Yan was pretending to be ill.

Today they just want to slander King Xian as an assassin, and then put King Xian in jail and force him to confess.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, it can be regarded as a smooth solution to the problem of competing with the prince for the throne.

Now that there is such a big commotion in the palace, Song Yan, as the prince, has not shown up for a long time. Now they have a reason.

As long as they complete this important matter, they will get the benefits of the prince.

When he thought of this, the leading officer ordered: "Search!"

More than a dozen guards responded: "Yes."

They searched here and there, but they could not find him anywhere, either in the palace of the wise king or in the lotus ponds commonly used by other wise kings.

Finally, the official set his sights on the most remote cabin in the palace.

They stood in front of the hut one after another. The official looked at Chao Lan beside him and asked respectfully: "I dare to ask, which concubine does this room belong to?"

Chao Lan rolled her eyes in her heart and said in a somewhat disdainful tone: "The mute in the Northern Desert."

Hearing this, the official knew that it was the princess of the Northern Desert who was getting married.

The officer almost nodded, and then motioned for the other guards to come in.

The guards rushed in without hesitation, opened the door with a bang, and after seeing the situation in the room, they were slightly startled and hurriedly retreated.

The official followed closely behind him. When he stepped into the room, he heard the man's weak but sullen tone: "Get out!"

The officer saw a man and a woman lying on a bed in the room, covered with quilts, but a little bit of scenery was exposed.

The man's back is exposed to the air, and he is possessing the woman, while the woman only shows her slender arms, as white as lotus roots.

Although King Xian is not the most important prince, he is still the emperor's son.

For these officials, they dare not slack off for the time being as a prince.

The officer was a little confused and quickly left the room, then asked the guards to close the door.

"Go and search elsewhere." The officer ordered and left with a group of guards.

When leaving, a guard said curiously: "Sir, didn't you say that the wise king's yang was declining?"

Official: "...Why are you meddling in so many other things?"

The guard shut his gossipy mouth.

Chao Lan and the other concubines also vaguely saw the situation inside, and they all frowned.

So, the prince would rather touch a mute than leave concubines like them aside?

*

After Song Yan heard the people outside gradually leaving, he quickly left Xie Shizhu.

While both of them were wearing clothes, Song Yan took off his upper body.

Xie Shizhu only took off his inner clothes, and his upper body still had a bellyband.

After Song Yan stood up, Xie Shizhu's face was very red, and even the tips of his ears were dyed pink.

She hurriedly picked up the underwear on the ground and quickly put it on.

Song Yan glanced at her from the corner of his eye and saw that the woman's palm-sized face was extremely red. He inadvertently curled his lips, and then said softly: "I was a little sorry just now."

Xie Shizhu put on his clothes and quickly shook his head after listening to his words.

Just when the guards were about to open the room, Xie Shizhu suddenly noticed something, and seemed to guess that the people outside were here for Song Yan.

She didn't wait for Song Yan to speak, rolled her eyes, and then told Song Yan her thoughts with gestures with her hands.

She also made signs indicating that she knew the prince didn't like him, wanted to find a way to deal with him, and also knew that the guards outside were deliberately trying to frame him.

Then, with Song Yan's surprised eyes, he took off his inner clothes.

Song Yan felt strange in his heart when he thought of the time he just thanked Shizhu with a blushing face and buried his head in his chest.

Xie Shizhu again chose to side with him amid the undercurrents between him and the prince.

Moreover, several concubines in the palace all have their hearts attached to the prince.

Only Xie Shizhu seemed not to care about the identity and status of the prince, nor did he have any selfish motives.

In his heart, as a princess, Xie Shizhu married him out of necessity, and he did not expect that she would solve his troubles.

After the guards outside left, Song Yan also walked out of Xie Shizhu's house.

When leaving, he even put out the candles in the room for her.

As soon as he left, Xie Shizhu's heavy chest finally relaxed.

After what happened just now, I believe that after Song Yan discovers that she is a meticulous worker, he will also let himself die a more dignified death.
