Chapter 672: There Are Assassins
Xuanyuan Yao had an ominous premonition in her heart, which could not be calmed down for a long time. So, she went to Queen Xu to ask if there was any news about the funeral procession.
Empress Xu told her with a smile that yesterday, the secret guard of the Xu family rushed back to report, saying that the eldest prince found that there were some places in the imperial tomb that needed to be repaired, and there were enough people, so he planned to come back after repairing, so he would stay for two or three more days.
Princess Yao always felt that something was wrong, the old emperor died, and the period before the new emperor ascended the throne was usually the most unstable period for the political situation. Song Yunjie is not a fool, how could he stay outside at this time?
Yan Shi's two young ladies were also present at this time, it seemed that they heard that Xuanyuan Yao had been living in the palace recently, so the two of them were not at ease, and they both begged the queen to stay in the palace.
The two of them saw that Princess Yao looked very worried about His Royal Highness the eldest prince, so they didn't get angry. Didn't you say that you already had a heart? Why are you still eating from the bowl and looking at the pot?
Miss Shi rolled her eyes, feeling that this was a good time to bluff, and she could take this opportunity to raise her value too much in front of Queen Xu and the two rivals in love, so that the queen could look down on herself, and let the rivals retreat.
Yes, she smiled gently and said to Xuanyuan Yao, "Princess Yao, don't worry, the eldest prince told me before he left that this was one of his plans, but it was just a matter of coming back two days later." โ
"He told you?" Xuanyuan Yao was a little surprised.
Also surprised was Miss Yan, although she didn't say anything, it was a little difficult to hide the jealousy in her eyes.
Miss Shi glanced at the two, pursed her lips and smiled, and nodded a little embarrassedly.
Xuanyuan Yao didn't doubt the other party's words, she felt that the matter was related to Song Yunjie's personal safety, and this Miss Shi would not lie no matter how ignorant she was.
As for why Song Yunjie told the other party about this, Xuanyuan Yao didn't think much about it, it was just a sentence, and the two of them might have met somewhere, so they said it casually.
Who knows, Miss Yan on the side is already going crazy with jealousy at the moment. Because it is usually difficult for the two of them to see His Royal Highness the Great Prince, and even if they do, the other party never pays attention to them.
And what worries her the most is that the surname Shi actually knows the itinerary of the eldest prince this time, could it be that the royal family has already made the other party the concubine? ?
After Xuanyuan Yao learned that this was Song Yunjie's arrangement, she was no longer so worried and went back to her room to continue her cultivation.
That night, she broke through again, and her cultivation had been promoted to the sixth level of the Bagua Realm. But when I was happy, there was a faint uneasiness in my heart.
In the end, Xuanyuan Yao still couldn't hold back, and summoned Ning Shu, who was punished in the Valley of Forgotten Worries, and asked her to go to the Eastern Jin Dynasty Emperor's Mausoleum to see the situation.
However, Ning Shu went and never came back.
It wasn't until noon the next day that Princess Yao realized that something might have happened to Ning Shu and decided to go to the imperial tomb by herself, when there was a sudden commotion in the queen.
"There are assassins!!" the palace people shouted loudly.
Xuanyuan Yao immediately went to help with the Qingshui Sword in hand, but the other party was too numerous to kill alone.
In a hurry, she looked at Fu You, but Fu You shook his head at her, and his tone was a little helpless, "These people are all wrapped in a layer of holy spiritual power, and I sense that there are many people outside the palace. โ
When Princess Yao heard this, she immediately understood who was making trouble behind her back. โโXuanyuan Ying and the people of Southern Xinjiang!!
