Chapter 458 Come to Pingdonghou Mansion to arrest people
Chu Rui suddenly saw Shangguan Yue get out of bed, and was a little surprised, "Why did you get out of bed?"
A sinister sneer flashed through Shangguan Yue's eyes, "Chu Rui, who do you think I am?"
Chu Rui was stunned for a moment when he was called by his first name, but he didn't have time to think too much, "You are Shangguan Yue! Why are you..."
Halfway through her words, she suddenly felt that her eyes were blurry and everything she saw was blurry, so she subconsciously rubbed her eyes.
At this time, Shangguan Yue spoke again, her voice was fierce and sinister, "I am Xie Yao! Don't you recognize me?"
Xie Yao?
When Chu Rui heard the name, his heart sank and he immediately looked up.
When she saw the person standing in front of her, she was shocked, "Xie Yao, why are you here? This is Shangguan Yue's room, get out now!"
Shangguan Yue smiled sinisterly, raised her wrist, holding a bright dagger in her hand, glowing with cold light, "The King of Yue wants to occupy the Pingdong Hou Mansion. You are the sister of the King of Yue. I can't kill the King of Yue, so I will kill you first."
!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she stabbed Chu Rui with a dagger.
She won't really kill Chu Rui, because she needs Chu Rui to testify that Xie Yao is the murderer!
However, she wanted Chu Rui to be seriously injured, so that she could make the queen angry! Make the royal family angry!
Didn't the queen always hate her and tell Chu Rui to stay away from her?
She wants them to suffer the consequences!
Chu Rui was stung by the dagger. She immediately struggled away from the pain and yelled angrily, "Xie Yao, what are you going to do? How dare you kill me?"
"Not only will I kill you, but I will also blame Shangguan Yue for killing you! You two should die!" Shangguan Yue roared angrily and was about to stab him again.
The dagger only pierced Chu Rui's abdomen, and it wasn't considered a serious injury!
Chu Rui was in pain and pushed Shangguan Yue away, trying to get up and escape.
Shangguan Yue didn't expect Chu Rui to be able to run away. She panicked and must not let Chu Rui run out of the room!
In panic, she quickly grabbed Chu Rui's leg and pulled hard!
Chu Rui lost his balance and fell directly to the ground, hitting his head and fainted.
Shangguan Yue immediately stepped forward and stabbed Chu Rui twice in the back. When he saw that Chu Rui made no movement, he stopped and stared coldly.
Only then did he realize that Chu Rui had fainted.
Shangguan Yue breathed a sigh of relief. After checking to make sure that Chu Rui was not dead, she stood up, took off her clothes, and hid it in a cupboard in the room.
The clothes she had copied were based on the style of one of Xie Yao's clothes. They were originally worn when sneaking out of the house, but they just came in handy now.
As for the dagger... because the incident happened suddenly, she was not prepared in advance, so she used the dagger from Ziyan Pavilion, which had to be hidden.
Shangguan Yue's eyes darkened, and she walked out quickly with the dagger in hand. After a while, she came back, and the dagger in her hand had disappeared.
After doing all this, she returned to bed, took out an Ecstasy powder, smelled it, and then threw the Ecstasy powder under the nearby window.
Soon, she fainted.
…
Pingdong Hou Mansion.
Since there was enough, preparations for the funeral continued.
Xie Yao asked her grandfather to rest first, and started to organize things at Pingdong Hou Mansion.
Grandfather sent Mo Li to assist, and the preparations went very smoothly for a while, but this smoothness did not last long before it was broken.
Xie Yao was assigning tasks when suddenly a group of guards rushed in, causing the servants to scream in shock.
Xie Yao lowered her eyes, looked around, and whispered to Mo Li, "pacify the servants first," and then walked up to the group of guards with a cold look on her face, "Why did you force your way into Pingdong Hou Mansion?"
She looked at the clothes of these guards and saw that they were palace guards.
What are they here for?
The guards did not speak to each other. The two leaders looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Do it!"
The two men immediately stepped forward and went straight to arrest Xie Yao.
Li Qiye was a little worried about Xie Yao and wanted to stop him but it was too late.
Xie Yao was prepared and immediately took a step back before taking action.
At this moment, a group of men in black descended from the sky and stood between the guards and Xie Yao.
"Don't worry, Princess Han, we will protect your safety!" someone among the men in black said.
Xie Yao took a look and his eyes darkened.
Li Li came over quickly and said in a very low voice, "Princess, they are the old general's secret guards."
Xie Yao nodded calmly, still squeezed out from his grandfather's secret guards, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, please be patient."
She turned back and signaled the secret guard not to do anything.
Unless necessary, it is best for secret guards not to conflict with palace guards.
The secret guard didn't know Xie Yao's intention. Although he didn't take any action, he was always guarding Xie Yao and would attack with lightning speed if he moved the slightest.
"You want to arrest me?" Xie Yao looked at the group of guards.
"We have been ordered to arrest someone, and we ask Princess Han to cooperate." When the guard saw the man in black, he was a little more polite to Xie Yao.
"By order? Whose order, and why did you arrest me?" Xie Yao asked.
"Why do Princess Han ask questions knowingly? Princess Rui was assassinated by you, and now she has woken up after being treated by the royal doctor!" The guard said in a deep voice, and made a gesture to the person behind him, as if he was ready to take action.
The secret guards immediately gathered their momentum, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Xie Yao was shocked.
Did she kill Chu Rui?
Who is setting her up?
The princess has royal blood, and assassinating the princess is a capital crime!
There are many people who want her to die. Who is it?
"Where was Princess Rui assassinated?" she asked with a frown.
"There's no need to ask, Princess Han! It's best to come back with us now to avoid causing trouble to the Pingdong Hou Mansion." The guard seemed a little wary of the secret guards and warned.
Xie Yao glanced at the guard and his eyes turned cold.
A guard couldn't warn her, but she had to make this trip!
Someone wants to harm her with such a big crime as assassinating Chu Rui, she must find out the person behind it!
"Just wait for me for a moment. I'll say a few words and then I'll follow you." After Xie Yao finished speaking, she turned around to find Mo Li and gave her some instructions.
"Princess, do you really want to go with them? Find someone to accompany you." Li Qiye was very worried.
It is impossible for the princess to assassinate Princess Rui, but what the palace cares about is never the truth!
"No need, tell my grandfather not to worry about me. Shangguan Yue's miscarriage was not a small matter before, and I came out safely as well!" Xie Yao said easily.
"Does the princess need this slave to tell His Highness Prince Han about this?" Li Li suggested.
Xie Yao shook his head and said firmly, "Don't tell anyone about this! If I don't come back tomorrow, the funeral ceremony will be held as usual. Please help me tell my father and brother that I have something to do and I will definitely visit them in the future."
Seeing that the princess was very determined, Li Moli could only nod after thinking about it.
