Chapter 24: Birth Turmoil (2)
Prince Gong's mansion is in a mess! A group of assassins have broken into the backyard! It's all for today's protagonist - Xiao Ruoruo!
Xiao Chuhong, who was resting in the side courtyard, was a little surprised. He left the palace today and came to Prince Gong's Mansion to attend Xiao Ruoruo's birthday banquet, originally because he had something to do. But I didn't expect to hear such a news!
Then he thought of the group of people who were looking for something on Xiao Ruoruo's body that the dark guard had reported to him that day. Could it be that these assassins are the queen's accomplices?!
Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still! However, he did not forget his purpose today, and after making a look at the people in the shadows, he took Li Dequan and the others out of the side courtyard.
Xiao Chuhong walked to the garden, Xiao Jingyan and the guests saw the emperor coming, and immediately knelt down and saluted. He was just about to raise his hand to get everyone up, when he was caught off guard, a feathered arrow shot at him! Fortunately, Xiao Jingyan, who was standing next to him, was agile and reacted quickly, jumped up and kicked the arrow away! Otherwise, Xiao Chuhong would have to see the king of Hades on the spot!
After failing to strike, the assassin appeared directly regardless of it, and raised his knife to slash at Xiao Chuhong!
The scene got out of control for a while! There were so many girls and ladies among the guests that they were so frightened that they screamed and screamed! But he was viciously covered by his own male relatives, lest he disturb St. Ann!
Between the lightning and flint, Xiao Jingyan's eyebrows and eyes were slightly cold, and he fought with the assassin with his bare hands. After more than a dozen moves between the two, the assassin's moves became more and more slow and weak, and Xiao Jingyan unloaded his weapon and lost another leg without noticing, and the forbidden army hurriedly stepped forward to catch him!
Everyone clutched their chests and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the emperor is fine! Otherwise, none of them can escape suspicion!
Xiao Jingyan was about to ask Xiao Chuhong for guilt, but the accident happened suddenly! The assassin who was taken in by the forbidden army looked at Xiao Jingyan with a desperate face, and said in a sad voice: "Your Royal Highness, why do you treat your subordinates like this!" ”
There was silence in the garden!
Xiao Chuhong looked at Xiao Jingyan with a gloomy face, Pei Shangying, who was standing in the crowd, was anxious, and hurriedly walked out: "Weichen knocks to see the emperor!" Your Majesty, it must be this thief who wants to stir up the relationship between the emperor and Prince Gong's mansion! How could His Royal Highness send an assassin to assassinate the Emperor! Please ask the emperor to check clearly! ”
Several other adults who were good friends with Prince Gong also stepped forward to excuse Xiao Jingyan,
Xiao Jingyan knelt on his knees, and there was no trace of panic on his face: "Uncle Huang, Jingyan grew up with you, and you know best what your heart and personality are!" Jing Yan has always respected you, Uncle Huang, how could he send someone to assassinate you! ”
Xiao Chuhong's expression softened a little, but he looked at a few people's eyes with a gloomy look: "Hehe, Jing Yan, I don't believe the words of this thief." Rest assured, I will investigate this matter thoroughly! Someone, put this person in prison, and interrogate him severely! Be sure to find out who is behind it! ”
The Praetorian Guard commander stepped forward and took the man away.
Regarding the emperor's arrangement, everyone has different hearts. Pei Shangying felt sad for Xiao Chuhe in her heart, but she didn't say anything more. Xiao Jingyan lowered his head and sneered, his hand hidden in his sleeve was clenched tightly, and green tendons burst out on the back of his hand!

When Xiao Chuhe understood the situation and led people to Xiao Ruoruo's side, he saw Frost and Shengxue covered in blood in front of Xiao Ruoruo. There are still two groups of people fighting in the huge courtyard!
One of the people, each with a wooden card, the wooden card engraved with the word "Demon", is actually the Demon Palace! And the other group of people, when Xiao Chuhe saw Sang Wuji standing in the crowd, his pupils constricted, his mouth opened wide, and he took a big step back on the spot!
Sang Wuji is not dead yet! He's alive! A thousand words can't say enough about the shock and horror in Xiao Chuhe's heart! What is he doing here! Avenge?! Not good! If you ......
Xiao Chuhe walked quickly to Xiao Ruoruo's side. When he saw the blood stains on Ruoruo's body and his closed eyes, he was shocked at first, and quickly reached out to probe her snort to make sure that she was still alive, and he was immediately relieved! He picked up Ruoruo, and there was a feeling of being lost and regained.
Sang Wuji was furious in his heart! By this time, the battle situation was no longer optimistic! Originally, Xiao Ruoruo was tricked, even if the maid came with the guards, it couldn't change the ending that she was going to be arrested.
But who knows, there was another Cheng biting gold that jumped out of the middle of the road! The people of the Demon Palace didn't know why they had to help Xiao Ruoruo. Faintly, he felt that those moves were very familiar, but he couldn't remember when he had encountered them. What a damn one!
At this time, Xiao Chuhe brought people over, and he Sang Wuji had no chance of winning, and this time his plan was about to come to naught!
As soon as he thought of this, he hated the people of the Demon Palace so much! If it weren't for the lack of medicine on his body, he would have made it worse than death!
Angry in his heart, he could only helplessly take people away. Before leaving, he glanced at Xiao Chuhe with a cruel smile. Hehe, let you two live a little longer!
And when the people of the Demon Palace saw that Sang Wuji had left, they also disappeared. Xiao Chuhe wanted to thank them too late! had to carry Xiao Ruoruo back to the room first.
After sending his daughter back to Lengxiang Pavilion, he received a report from his subordinates, saying that the emperor had been assassinated in the palace, and all suspicions were directed at his son Xiao Jingyan!
Xiao Chuhe's heart instantly cooled! Finally shot at him?
sent someone to invite the house doctor, and ordered the guards to surround the Leng Xiang Pavilion layer by layer and guard it well. , Finally, after glancing at Xiao Ruoruo uneasily, he turned around and left.
When he arrived at the front hall, Xiao Chuhe first apologized to the guests with an apologetic face, telling them that the birthday banquet would be postponed for a few days. And he thanked them for their coming, and sent them away. Only Xiao Chuhong sat calmly and drank tea, and he didn't care about Xiao Chuhe's rudeness.
When it was only the two brothers in the hall, the two sat silently.
I don't know how long it took, the hot tea was also changed cup after cup, and Xiao Chuhe finally had a reaction! He stood up and pleaded guilty to Xiao Chuhong: "Weichen is rude, please forgive the emperor!" ”
Xiao Chuhong waved his hand absently.
Xiao Chuhe straightened up, but his originally straight spine suddenly bent! His face was pale, his eyes were blank, and he seemed to be dozens of years old for a moment.
"Sang Wuji is still alive!"
“……!”
Xiao Chuhong didn't hold it steady, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered. His eyes widened and he stood up in disbelief!
"What you say is true? If there is a lie, you should be deceitful! Xiao Chuhong stared at Xiao Chuhe.
Xiao Chuhe sat on the chair with a wry smile, he looked at Xiao Chuhong, and there was no trace of ripples in his eyes: "Weichen doesn't dare to bully the king!" He is the one who assassinated Ruo Ruo today! Wechen saw it with his own eyes! ”
Xiao Chuhong slammed and sat down in his chair. There was a deathly silence in the room again!
After a while, Xiao Chuhong regained his previous calm: "I know. Only a hint of trilling in his voice revealed his true emotions.
Turning his head to look at Xiao Chuhe, he said expressionlessly: "Jing Yan is fine, you don't have to worry." With that, he flicked his sleeves and left Prince Gong's mansion.
Xiao Chuhe was left alone to sit in the hall and cry bitterly.

The palace physician was a man in his mid-middle years. Ten years ago, the government doctor who concluded that Xiao Ruoruo drowned was driven away by Xiao Chuhe. Later, another one was recruited, but the medical skills were not good. This one was recruited by Xiao Ruoruo for almost a year, and Xiao Chuhe was recruited. He is withdrawn and cold-spoken, but his medical skills are very good.
"Peerless senior, how is the county lord" Bully asked worriedly while bandaging her wounds. Sheng Xue was seriously injured and had already returned to her room to rest, only she was better.
Youjie checked the pulse, opened Xiao Ruoruo's eyelids and looked at it, then put down his hand, shook his head and said, "She's fine." ”
After hearing this, Frost cried: "Wow...... Scared the hell out of me! I still...... Wow...... What do you think happened to the county lord...... Wow...... She's fine...... That's great! Wow wow......"
You frowned.
This little girl, even if she is weak, she is still so noisy! The palace master had already asked the palace master to replace them with the person who enabled the Demon Palace, but the palace master was unwilling, saying that he couldn't let them be exposed to Sang Wuji's eyes too early!
