In an instant, the news of the assassin's invasion of the palace spread rapidly, and Xi Chijun no longer cared about fighting with Xiaoyu. Hurriedly left the guest house, gathered all the soldiers and rushed to Haoshuangzhai.
"Le'er, I'll send you out of King Rong's Mansion immediately." With a light step, the man flew up to the eaves with the girl.
The decisive battle between the Qi family army and the imperial court was imminent, and in order to prevent Xi Feng's army from taking the opportunity to make chaos behind his back, Qi Guogong discussed with his staff and set this assassination plan.
As a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, the strength of the Xi family should not be underestimated, and for the future of the Nangong family, Xi Rongyin must die.
"No, Brother Xiao, I can't go." The senior brother went to Haoshuangzhai to deliver medicine, but he hasn't come back yet, and the assassin suddenly attacked, so she can't just walk away.
The internal force is running, and the girl's posture is light, like an elf in the dark night going to Haoshuangzhai.
"Le'er ......" failed to stop Yingle, Xiaoyu immediately used light skills to chase after him, according to the original plan, he should not have appeared so soon.
When Second Master Xi led people to the guest house, the building was already empty, and he ordered the guards to wait outside, and he pushed open the door and entered the guest room where the divine doctor lived.
He didn't dare to refuse what Old Madam Xi ordered, and when he saw the medicine box in the room and the salute packed next to him, he showed a sinister smile. Luckily, these things are still there. took out a jade bottle, opened the cork and shook it off the baggage, and the colorless and odorless powder floated down.
The dress in which the powder had been submerged quickly disappeared, and no trace could be seen, and the man turned away satisfied.
……
In the garden of King Rong's Mansion, Yun Chuche, who had followed Xi Chiyao all the way here, hid among the flowers and trees and eavesdropped on the two girls outside.
"Sister Yao, Ling'er brought what you wanted." Handing a medicine bag to Xi Chiyao, Gongsun Ling secretly guessed who Miss Xi wanted to harm again.
Father Gongsun Han is a staff member of Rongwang Mansion, she has helped Xi Chiyao to prepare all kinds of strange medicines and send them, but the eldest lady will use the medicine on whom, but it is not for her to ask more.
"Okay, there's nothing for you to do here, so don't retreat." got what she wanted, Xi Chiyao had no patience with Gongsun Ling, this woman bothered to please her, but she just wanted to become the princess of her younger brother. Hehe...... why don't you find a mirror to take a good look at, just by virtue of the identity of the daughter of Gongsun Ling's staff.
If it weren't for the father's wisdom and the opportunity to give Gongsun Han a chance to perform, where would the father and daughter have a good life today.
"Sister Yao, I haven't seen Brother Jun for a long time, you promised someone else's ......" Gongsun Ling hesitated and refused to leave, she liked to study all kinds of poisons since she was a child, and she had already become the imperial pharmacist of the Xi family. 90 Literature Network
"Why, don't you believe me? Ah Di is the heir of Rong Wangfu, how many military affairs have to be dealt with every day, if you really like him, you should wait quietly, and when he is free, he will go to talk to you. ”
This girl has always been obsessed with herbal medicine, and she easily doesn't take a step out of the medicine house, why is it so difficult to get rid of today.
"Ling'er doesn't dare, it's just that the medicine configured this time is domineering, Sister Yao must be careful when using it." Seeing that Xi Chiyao didn't want her to see the little prince, Gongsun Ling responded obediently on her face, but she made up her mind in her heart, and when the woman in front of her left, she quietly went to the study to find it.
My father often discusses with the prince there every day, and although she lives in a simple house, she still knows the way to the study.
It's just that the rules of the palace are strict, and if the subordinates do not get the permission of the master, they will break into the study at will, and if they are discovered, they will be severely punished.
"Long-winded, Miss Ben has her own measure." Waving his hand to send Gongsun Ling to retreat, Xi Chiyao clenched the medicine bag in his hand, and hurriedly walked out of the garden in the direction of the guest house.
Waiting for Miss Xi to leave, Gongsun Ling, who had retreated earlier, went and returned, and Yun Chuche, who was trying to withdraw from behind the flowers and trees, had to stop moving, is this girl a dog, her nose is so smart, she actually sniffed the smell and came over.
"Hmph...... don't hide, I see you." Gongsun Ling twitched her delicate little nose and looked for her behind the flowers and trees, "Come out, otherwise this girl will call someone to arrest you immediately." ”
……
Walking out of the verdant garden, Xi Chiyao found that the palace was already in a mess, "Xiaoxi, go and ask, what's wrong?" ”
At the same time, the night sky full of stars before suddenly became gloomy and heavy, and the feeling of suffocating heat made Xi Chiyao breathless. Bursts of thunder continued to sound in the distance, and it seemed as if a storm was about to come on the sea.
After a while, the maid hurriedly came back and said, "Miss, there are assassins in the palace, and the guards are busy searching for the whereabouts of the man in black. ”
During the conversation between the master and servant, a scream came from a distance, "It's not good, it's Rong Jintang, come with me, grandmother can't be fine." ”
Running into Rongjin Hall with her skirt, the scene she saw in front of her made Xi Chiyao's hair stand on end, and Mrs. Xi fell in a pool of blood with her eyes open, "Grandmother, wake up, Yao'er is here, who, who did it?" ”
At this moment, Aunt Rong, who was lying next to the old lady, groaned, reached out and grabbed the hem of Xi Chiyao's dress, and said with her last breath: "Miss, run, second master, he's crazy." ”
What do you mean, could it be that the person who killed my grandmother was the second uncle, Xi Chiyao was about to ask in detail, but Aunt Rong swallowed her last breath and was completely lifeless.
