At this moment, the carriage he was sitting on was stabbed by a masked assassin. When Ye Fuxun saw this, he took a deep breath and sighed because he got off the carriage first.
But who wants her life?
Not long after she left the palace, she thought that this person must be the same person who framed her before, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to such great lengths.
But as a princess, she has no real power, so how can she induce someone to deal with her like this?
Ye Fuxun didn't have time to think too much, the expression on his face changed again and again, and he immediately resisted, but in the end he was stabbed in the chest by an assassin in a sneak attack.
"princess!"
Seeing this, the guards immediately used all their lifelong learning and finally managed to return to the East Palace with Ye Fuxun, who was seriously injured.
It was night, the lights in the East Palace were brightly lit, and imperial doctors carrying boxes were constantly coming in and out.
Ji Yannuo stood at the door of the palace, his face gloomy. Kneeling in front of him was a guard, who was the one protecting Ye Fuxun today.
"Tell me, who is so bold?" Ji Yannuo said coldly.
"Reporting to the prince, the princess came out of the palace today and didn't even have time to burn incense before she met an assassin and was injured by an assassin in a sneak attack." The guard said truthfully.
Ji Yannuo heard the sound and said nothing. Finally, he glanced at Ye Fulun who was still awake, and then went to the study to summon the secret guards to arrange the matter.
And not long after he left, Ye Fuxun woke up.
Ye Fuxun's face was pale and without any blood. She moved slightly and felt a heart-wrenching pain in her chest.
At this time, there was a sound outside the hall. Ye Fuxun heard the sound and looked around, and saw Li Xiyao, who was dressed in a coquettish but arrogant manner.
"Oops? Is the princess okay?" Li Xiyao covered her mouth with a handkerchief, looking surprised. Then she looked at the palace, frowned slightly and asked, "How come the princess is so seriously injured, the prince didn't even come to see you?"
?”
"Previously, I was favored by the prince, and I was always happy in my body and mind. Unexpectedly, at this time, news came that the princess was injured. I don't know who you have offended, princess. The person you wanted to hurt was killed like this."
Li Xiyao observed Ye Fuxun's expression as she spoke. She came here to see Ye Fuxun under false pretenses. The purpose was to show off her power and say that she was favored by Ji Yannuo, and at the same time see how badly Ye Fuxun was injured.
Ye Fuxun's eyes flashed with sarcasm. What Li Xiyao said was also funny. How could she have offended someone and even made others kill her.
Although Ye Fuxun didn't say anything, the maid Xiluo beside her was loyal to protect the master. She immediately looked at Li Xiyao loudly and said: "Concubine, it's better not to say nonsense, don't make others feel uncomfortable. The prince just left not long ago.
How did you become the prince who favored you before?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiyao gritted her teeth and thought that even a maid dared to say that she could not say anything more in the current situation.
After Xiluo drove Li Xiyao away, he devoted himself to treating Ye Fuxun's wounds. Although the imperial doctors were there, Xiluo was still worried. After all, the palace was a place that ate people without spitting out their bones. Who knew whether the imperial doctors had been bribed.
Ji Yannuo, who had been sternly ordering the secret guards to investigate the matter thoroughly in the study, finally discovered that the person behind the scenes was actually Li Xiyao.
Ji Yannuo immediately clenched his fists with anger on his face, but in his heart he wanted to kill Li Xiyao, the troublemaker.
If it weren't for her, how could he and Ye Fuxun be like this!
In the entire East Palace, the number of silent patrol guards more than doubled. Li Xiyao was walking on the way back to the palace. After looking at the patrolling guards, she immediately tightened her heart, and the handkerchiefs in her hands were also mixed together unconsciously.
.
Juxiang also saw this scene, and Juxiang's heart was in her throat, and she immediately said: Your Majesty, please leave quickly!"
To be able to make the East Palace silent and add so many guards, it is obvious that something is brewing secretly.
But now, the only thing that is known is that the princess Ye Fuxun was slandered by an assassin.
but……
Li Xiyao bit her lip when she thought of this, and looked back at the guards three times. It was obvious that Ji Yannuo and Ye Fuxun already had a respectful relationship with each other. Even Ye Fulun could not let Ji Yannuo do this.
To this point...
Could it be that Ji Yannuo and Ye Fuxun were acting like they were respectful to each other just to show her!?
Li Xiyao suddenly became angry, accompanied by a strong feeling of fear.
After returning to the palace, Li Xiyao walked back and forth, unable to calm down.
"Go and find out where the prince is tonight and what his mood is like!" Li Xiyao was worried, fearing that such a huge battle in the East Palace today was because Ji Yannuo discovered something from it, or discovered that Ye Fuxun was assassinated.
the truth.
Juxiang heard the sound and hurriedly walked out. After asking around, she learned that Ji Yannuo had become very angry in the study.
She hurriedly came back to report to Li Xiyao.
Li Xiyao's eyes suddenly widened when she heard what Ju Xiang said, and she squeezed the armrests of her seat tightly with both hands, unable to speak for a long time.
"You mean, besides the prince, there are many secret guards in the study...?" After a long time, Li Xiyao asked in a hoarse voice.
After seeing Ju Xiang nodding, Li Xiyao became even more frightened.
She had had the idea of sending an assassin to kill Ye Fuxun a long time ago. The reason why she did it today was because she felt that the time had come.
But after all calculations, I never expected that Ji Yannuo was interested in Ye Fuxun. He had been pretending for so long just to show her.
The more Li Xiyao thought about it, the more frightened she became. There were so many guards in the East Palace now, and they attracted attention no matter what they did.
"Go and prepare quickly, I want to go home at night!"
Afterwards, Li Xiyao and Ju Xiang left the East Palace in fear. The moment they left, there were several more shadows silently following behind them in the dark.
The reason why Li Xiyao left in such a hurry was to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion before Ji Yannuo came to question her.
If it was really found out that she was responsible, naturally the Prime Minister's Office would not be able to protect her, but the purpose of her coming back was to discuss with the Prime Minister what to do.
Prime Minister Li rested early. When he finally heard the servants say that Li Xiyao was coming, he frowned slightly, put on his clothes and went to the front hall.
"Why did the empress come to the house so late?" Prime Minister Li has been an official for many years and is an old fox. Seeing the panic on Li Xiyao's face, his brows furrowed even more.
Li Xiyao swallowed, couldn't help but stepped forward and fiercely grabbed Prime Minister Li's clothes, and suddenly knelt down. Almost at the moment she knelt down, the fear in Li Xiyao's heart reached its peak, and her eyes immediately became moist.
stand up.
"Please father give your daughter some advice and save her!" Li Xiyao's voice became even more choked up.
Prime Minister Li didn't speak for a long time after hearing what she said. Now that Li Xiyao is the concubine of the East Palace, she is one of the four concubines in the future, and is more likely to be a noble concubine.
