Chapter 575: The Empress's Cultivation Plan (16)
"July, what are you doing in a daze?" said Xiao Cui. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
July Says..... July didn't want to say anything, July just wanted to run quickly, because if she didn't run quickly, the emperor would let the family kill her again, and this was already her last crystal.
July stood up and started to run, even Xiao Cui behind her shouted that she didn't have time to turn back and explain, running like this in the palace was actually not allowed, so July put an invisibility sticker on her body, and suddenly all the people on the road couldn't see her.
July is so distressed, all the money she saved for this task is used, and if she fails again, she can strangle herself with a rope.
With the help of the invisibility sticker, this time July didn't have to care about other people's eyes, and the power of the desolation was used, and sure enough, this time she arrived at the Imperial Garden a long time earlier than last time.
July panted and squatted in front of the peony where the emperor and the concubine enjoyed the flowers, and rested for a long time before panting.
July is a little depressed, although the body bound to this system can be transformed, but it is completely according to the value, if it was before, she could have used the method of practicing martial arts to improve her physical fitness as quickly as possible, but now it is not good, and she can only do tasks to slowly increase the value.
There are advantages and disadvantages, alas! After all, no matter how much you exercise, you can't make your face beautiful!
As soon as July recovered a little, he heard a voice behind him say to himself, "Who are you?
July hurriedly stood up and bowed back, and replied respectfully, "The slave maid is the female slave of the Imperial Garden, and this peony happens to be taken care of by the slave maid, so it is here." ”
Although July didn't raise her eyes to see who that person was, she was extremely humble and respectful, of course, she couldn't be respectful, after all, there was no one in this palace with a lower status than her!
It didn't matter if July peeked at the person who was questioning after answering, but he was startled, because this person was the guard who stabbed him.
July hurriedly lowered her head to hide the surprise in her eyes, and the guard obviously didn't care about July, after all, July was a little slave girl, and in his eyes she was just an ant-like existence.
"The emperor and the lady will come over in a while, and the idlers need to be avoided, so you should leave quickly!" the guard said with a cold face.
July blinked, she finally ran over, and now she wants to let her leave quickly, so why is she running?
But the level of this guard is much higher than his own, he let himself go, and it seems that he can't go if he doesn't go, which is really an embarrassing thing!
"Uh.." After a little groaning, July said in a calm tone, "My lord, just now the slave maid saw that there were a few insects on the branches and leaves of these pots of peonies, if it scared the lady concubine, it would be bad, and please allow the slave maid to catch this insect out, and then leave." ”
The guard frowned when he heard July's words, he naturally didn't want July to make trouble here, but he didn't agree with what July said, and saw that July was just an inconsequential palace slave, and he couldn't make any big waves when he thought about it, so he said impatiently, "Okay!
July breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she could stay here, she pretended to look for bugs everywhere in the middle of the pots of peonies, but in fact kept checking the surroundings.
Sure enough, July noticed something wrong with his careful attention, which others might not have noticed, but with July's eyesight, he quickly found the hiding place of the assassins. However, the outstretched hands of these assassins are excellent, and if they are still in force, they will naturally not be afraid of these people, but now I am afraid that I will hang up if I can't make a move under those people, and it is also a problem for me to protect the emperor!
Of course, there is a second way now, that is, after the emperor came, she told the emperor that someone was assassinated, but the problem arose again, not to mention the question of whether she could talk to the emperor, the key is why the emperor believed what he said! What's more important is that even if you believe what you say, how to explain to the emperor that you know that there are assassins is also a big problem, you must know that this kind of imperial society does not take human life seriously at all, if you feel suspicious and treat yourself as an accomplice of the assassins, it will be unlucky!
July was thinking about it, when suddenly a shrill and thin eunuch shouted in the distance: "The emperor has arrived!"
July was stunned when she heard this, she hadn't thought about what to do, but she couldn't just stand still here, so she hurriedly retreated to the back of the flower, retreated to an inconspicuous place where she could reach the emperor, and then knelt down.
July looked at the emperor with his peripheral eyes, although he couldn't see it clearly, but he could see that the general outline should not be very old, and he looked handsome, wearing a purple dragon-patterned regular clothes, and he looked very energetic.
Following him was Concubine Shu, who entered the palace during this year's draft, and was a concubine when she entered the palace, and she was directly promoted to concubine not long after, which shows that she is very favored by the emperor.
"Your Majesty, look at how beautiful this flower is!" said to the emperor with a smile, the voice was crisp and pleasant, but for some reason, July felt a little familiar.
"Well, it's really good, I can count these pots of flowers in this imperial garden, if the concubine likes it, then move it to the concubine's palace!" the emperor smiled softly.
"Although the concubines given by His Majesty are indispensable, but the concubines really dare not move back, if the concubines really move away, the concubine Niangniang will not hate the concubines to death!"
The concubine is the biological mother of the prince, and her mother's family is in charge of the military power of the imperial court, which is very prominent. Now that there is no queen in the court, this concubine is the largest in the harem, and she is no different from the queen.
"Don't worry, I'm in charge for you!" said the Emperor.
The two of them were talking and laughing, not paying attention to their surroundings at all, and at this moment, the guard standing next to the emperor suddenly drew his sword, waved it at the emperor, and shouted in his mouth, "Faint king, suffer death!"
The guards who could carry swords in front of the emperor were all people that the emperor could absolutely trust, so no one would have thought that this guard would suddenly stab him, so no one stepped forward to stop him in a daze, and by the time everyone reacted, it was too late, because the sword was about to fall on the emperor's neck.
And at this moment, July pounced.
July is out of the way, although she doesn't want to sacrifice herself to save others, but all she can do now is to block the sword with her body.
However, in order to ensure that he could not become a martyr, July had an idea to stick the lucky card to his body, and July only hoped that this thing could be as magical as in the description of the item, at least let her not be hacked to death next to this sword.
