Chapter 374: Changes in the Palace
Shen Xi also followed closely, it was Concubine Yan who was injured, she was assassinated by the assassin, the injury was very serious, the assassin also made a mess of this Tangram Festival, for the safety of everyone, Liu Congwen ordered people to block all this place, and those official ladies were also sent out of the palace one by one.
Concubine Yan was lying in a pool of blood, because of excessive blood loss, she had passed out, and her face was very pale. Liu Congwen was helping her, and the imperial doctor was still on the way to come, and this matter was still hidden from the emperor.
Seeing this scene, Shen Xi frowned slightly, and said, "This is not the first time that an assassin has appeared in the palace. β
"The palace is the most dangerous place, but why did an assassin appear to assassinate Concubine Yan? Concubine Yan is not the queen's person on her face. The queen is not so flamboyant now, and logically speaking, no one will attack Concubine Yan. Lu Qingyi's eyes were cold, and besides, it was such a righteous and bright assassination, if it was just a competition for favor among the concubines in the palace, it would not have to be like this.
Shen Xi glanced at Lu Qingyi slightly, and speculated: "Unless the queen herself wants to do something to Concubine Yan." β
At present, in addition to this possibility, either Chang Wen saw that Concubine Yan was favored and made a move on her.
If the harem is used to compete for favor, the emperor will soon suspect that it is a person in the palace, but if the assassin is allowed to assassinate, the first target will be outside the palace.
"Whoever it is, it's a smart person." Lu Qingyi said softly.
Because everyone has been evacuated, and there are only a few people left at the scene, Ning Ying stood aside, smiling at all this, all of this seems to have nothing to do with her, for her, it doesn't matter who dies or who lives.
Roland was so frightened that his face turned pale, and his courage was even smaller than that of Changqing, Changqing had returned to normal, but Roland didn't dare to look at Concubine Yan.
Shen Xi scoffed at this, if she was really scared, she should have followed others out of the palace early in the morning, and she was still here now, just to attract Lu Qingyi's attention, otherwise why did she always lean on Lu Qingyi's side?
"Miss Luo, you should go next to the fourth prince, not him." Shen Xi really couldn't help it, and reminded softly, is this prosperous white lotus so thick-skinned?
"But I'm afraid, the fourth prince won't know anything, what if something happens again? Lu Gongzi is a powerful person, if something happens, he can also protect me by the way. When Roland said this, her eyes were looking at Lu Qingyi, and she took the initiative to forget all the previous things.
Shen Xi felt ashamed of her.
"No matter how scared you are, you can't ask my man for protection! I'm still here, do you have a problem with your eyes? And now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, the assassin is clearly coming for Concubine Yan, what are you worried about? Shen Xi smiled at Roland.
There is only one assassin, and the purpose is very obvious, that is, to seriously injure Concubine Yan, if he wanted to kill Concubine Yan at that time, Shen Xi believed that it was okay, Concubine Yan's injuries were extremely serious, but he didn't want to marry Concubine Yan's life, what was the purpose?
"Miss Shen, I know you don't like me, but in this case, I believe you are not so stingy, Lu Gongzi is indeed your fiancΓ©, but the man has three wives and four concubines, why do you have to be obsessed with this?" Roland's voice was gentle, and looking at her like this made people think that she was a reasonable person.
She is also suspected of saying this to Lu Qingyi, because Lu Qingyi has only seriously contacted Shen Xi so far, and Roland is just telling Lu Qingyi that if he wants to marry, he can also have three wives and four concubines.
When Shen Xi thought of this, she couldn't help but want to roll her eyes, she really couldn't accept such three views, but she didn't bother to quarrel with Roland anymore.
On the contrary, it was Lu Qingyi who pulled Lu Qingyi to his side, and said to Luo Lan in a deep voice: "Miss Luo, my father said that as a man, you can't be half-hearted, so the three wives and four concubines in your mouth have nothing to do with me." Butterfly
"Master Lu, I didn't mean that." Roland hurriedly explained.
But she underestimated Lu Qingyi's determination, and thought too highly of herself, Lu Qingyi didn't say a word, and walked away directly with Shen Xi in her arms.
Concubine Yan has been carried away, and the imperial doctor has also treated her in time, but there are still many people at the scene, Liu Congwen is still cleaning up the scene, and Chang Yi is looking for other exits of the palace to block them one by one.
Luo Lan stood aside, looking at the intimate Shen Xi and Lu Qingyi, and remembered what Ning Ying had just said to her, if Shen Xi was there, Lu Qingyi would never look at her squarely, thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of something she had never thought before.
"Why, I'm going to hit a wall again!" Ning Ying appeared out of place again, and also looked in the direction that Luo Lan was looking at, "If I were you, I would have done it earlier, the palace would inevitably be in chaos tonight, hurting Concubine Yan, and then I would not suspect you." β
Ning Ying is still instigating Roland, Roland is the daughter of the prime minister, and the prime minister is in the same boat as Chang Wen, so in summary, Roland and them are also in the same boat, not to mention that they all want Shen Xi to die.
"Why don't you do it yourself?" Roland is a smart person, Ning Ying persuaded herself again and again, it must be because she also wanted to die, so she kept encouraging her.
"I have a grudge with Shen Xi for a long time, if I do something to her, it will be easy to be found out, if I find out, Lu Qingyi will definitely not let us go, if he uses all his forces to deal with me and the second prince at that time, you will suffer."
Ning Ying said indifferently, and analyzed all these pros and cons to Roland, if she could do it, she would have done it a long time ago, and now that her identity is different, the impact will naturally be different.
"You're a smart guy and you should want that." After Ning Ying said this, she turned around and left.
The scene has been almost cleaned up, and the palace is now full of news that Concubine Yan was assassinated, and everyone is panicked, and the palace maids and eunuchs are all rumored to have fallen into evil in this palace, and some such things will happen in a short time.
Some people also say that this is Concubine Lan taking revenge back then.
Chang Yi heard all this clearly.
"Are you too idle? I have the heart to pass on some things here and some don't. Chang Yi's expression was cold, he stared at the palace eunuch, his face was cold.
Concubine Lan is his mother, and he doesn't like his mother to be talked about many years after her death, and he blames her for everything.
Where in this world are there any ghosts.
When the eunuch palace maid saw that it was Chang Yi, she knelt down in a panic, her voice trembling slightly, "Three...... Three Princes! β
"You are here to talk about these things with great disrespect to the dead." Chang Yi's voice was cold, and he didn't blame them too much and turned away.
The eunuchs and palace maids didn't dare to say anything more, but the rumors in this palace couldn't be stopped, because Concubine Yan was assassinated in vain, and many concubines in the harem began to panic and hid in the room and didn't dare to go out.
