Speaking of Xiao Linyuan's "accident", Xiao Yiyan's expression was extremely indifferent.

"Before the man reached the imperial city, he was ambushed by the killers.

"More than thirty guards failed to protect Xiao Linyuan, all of them were fatal.

"Among the many forces in Beiyan, there are only a few who have such masters. ”

"Is one move deadly?" Mu Zhixi repeated, thoughtful.

In Beiyan, the prince who assassinated Beiyan acted so simply and quietly to solve it, and those assassins were definitely first-class masters.

"Could it be Xiao Mohuan?" she said faintly after thinking about it.

Xiao Yiyan's chin pressed slightly, "Maybe, but not necessarily." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Xiao Yiyan's expression was slightly cold, and he became extremely serious.

"Xiao Mohuan's disciples of the Wuji Sect, I have fought with them, although their martial arts are high, they can't reach the level of lethality in one move.

"After all, the guards around Xiao Linyuan are not waste.

"You should know very well that the disciples of Wujimen are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the assassination of Xiao Linyuan was indeed done by Wujimen, as for who the master behind them is, it remains to be considered. ”

After the Wuji Gate was destroyed, it suffered a heavy blow, and the disciples had already scattered.

After the Battle of Huaishan, the remnants of Wujimen in the western realm were once again destroyed.

The trees fell and scattered, and all she knew was that in addition to the disciples under Xiao Mohuan, there was also Ye Jinzhi.

However, Ye Jinzhi should have no reason to assassinate Xiao Linyuan.

What's more, the disciples under him don't have such a high level of kung fu.

One move is deadly, and the speed of the move is absolutely unimaginable to ordinary people.

Before he could react, his head had already fallen to the ground.

"Let's dry your body first, don't get cold. Xiao Yiyan gave her the towel.

In the bathtub, Mu Zhixi's eyelashes were stained with water droplets, confused and charming.

Xiao Yiyan handed her the clothes and took the initiative to turn her back, afraid that she would not be able to control it for a while.

His deliberate avoidance made Mu Zhixi a little puzzled.

But she didn't think much of it.

In order to relieve his tension, Xiao Yiyan opened the topic, "I have already sent someone to send Chu Yanran to the palace. ”

Mu Zhixi fastened her belt and said casually, "She is very smart and knows what to do." ”

After saying this, she couldn't help but add.

"Won't my husband regret it? She is a woman, so wronged by herself. ”

is still on the top of the face that looks like Concubine Yun's mother.

There is no room for regret for a long time, this matter is her own willingness. ”

......

Palace.

Under Xiao Yiyan's guidance, Chu Yanran successfully passed the various assessments of the palace maids and was assigned to serve by the emperor's side.

When Gonggong Chen saw her face, he was frightened.

"Yun Fei Niangniang?!" Is his old eyes dizzy, why did he see the deceased Yun Fei Niangniang!

Chu Yanran saluted, her voice gentle and tactful.

"The slave has seen the chief steward. ”

Gonggong Chen looked at it fixedly.

The woman in front of her is almost twenty-eight years old, her appearance is green and cute.

At first glance, it is indeed very similar to Concubine Yun.

But if you look closely, there are still a lot of differences.

"What's your name?" Because of this face, Grandpa Chen's attitude was very kind.

"Slave Yanran. ”

"Yanran...... It's a good name. Chen Gonggong had a thought in his heart, and subconsciously glanced at the palace door behind him.

The emperor has missed Concubine Yun for many years, and if he sees a woman who looks similar to Concubine Yun, the depression in his heart can be swept away.

Chu Yanran entered the palace smoothly, and because her appearance was similar to Concubine Yun, it quickly spread to the queen's palace.

At this time, the queen had just learned that Xiao Linyuan had been assassinated, and her life and death were uncertain, and she didn't care about a palace maid.

She now has no master, and she just wants to know if her son is safe.

One after another, many guards have been dispatched.

When each group of people returned, they said that no one had been found.

Time passed little by little, and the queen's mood became more and more difficult to calm down.

She turned the Buddha beads in her hand and prayed for the blessing of the Buddha for the safety of her son.

However, the bad news came.

Jinxin came from outside, sweating profusely.

"Mother!" she called, with sadness, horror, and anxiety.

At the same time, the beads broke the thread, and the beads rolled to the ground, as if a bad omen.

The queen looked at Jinxin, "Is there any news from Yuan'er?"

She looked anxious and very worried,

These days, she has been tossing and turning, and her heart is like a big stone, and she is often out of breath.

Now that the emperor is seriously ill, Yuan'er must return to the city as soon as possible.

But he has not returned for a long time, how can she, as a mother, not worry.

Now that he knows that he has been assassinated, he is even more depressed.

"Niangniang, the second prince is ...... He knelt on the ground ...... "Jinxin" poof, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't bear to tell the truth.

"Tell me what's going on!" the queen was even more eager, staring at Jinxin's mouth.

Jinxin's eyes were slightly red, and he lowered his head, word by word, and spoke with difficulty.

"The guards found the body of the second prince under the cliff......"

The truth was so cruel that the queen's lips trembled, unable to bear the sudden grief, and choked the placket of her chest and let out a cry.

"Yuan'er—my son!"

"Mother's Day mourning. Jinxin didn't know what to say, and was flustered.

The second prince is Niangniang's hope, and now that he is dead, all the efforts made by Niangniang and the Zhao family have come to naught.

Such a blow is too heavy.

It was as if he had been pulled out of his soul in an instant and turned into a walking corpse.

Boom!

The queen swept everything off the table, and her face was distorted with great grief.

She yelled at Jinxin.

"What a mourning! Yuan'er won't die! No! This palace wants to see him, Yuan'er is still alive, he will come back soon, and he will ...... soon."

Jinxin hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Niangniang, the guards have already transported the body of the second prince back, and the slaves and maids have also taken a look, you take care of your body, you still have the Zhao family's ......"

The queen couldn't bear the sudden pain of losing her son, and vented her anger on Jinxin.

She lifted her arm and slapped it against Jinxin's face.

Bang Bang Bang!

"No! You're lying! Yuan'er isn't dead!!"

After a few slaps, Jinxin's face was high and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were oozing blood.

She couldn't hide, and she didn't dare to hide.

Niangniang's loss of the second prince is more painful than anyone else.

As a maidservant, she should share the worries of her master.

The Imperial Study.

The emperor forcibly supported the sick body to review the recital, and a guard approached to pray.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong! There is news from outside the city, the second prince, the second prince is gone!"

"How could it be...... Poof-"Hearing this bad news, the emperor was furious and immediately spat blood.

"Your Majesty!"

"Imperial Doctor, pass on the Imperial Doctor, the emperor has fainted!"

In the end, he was his own son, and he died so suddenly, the emperor felt uncomfortable.

After spitting up a mouthful of blood, he fell unconscious again.

Several imperial doctors gathered around and whispered.

"The emperor's dragon body is getting weaker and weaker, and this time it is stimulated again, but I am afraid that I will not wake up for a while. ”

"Unexpectedly, the second prince said that it would be gone. ”

"The most important thing now is to cure the emperor's evil disease. ”

......

The emperor often fainted, and the concubines of the harem had long been used to it.

Only this time, even the queen fell.

The emperor and queen both had accidents, and there was chaos in the harem.

Everyone is in danger, only thinking about self-preservation, and they have speculated that the second prince who is most qualified to become the crown prince is gone, and which prince will be in charge in the future.

Chu Yanran stood in the corner of the dormitory, watching coldly.

Before the emperor could see her, he was already unconscious.

If this dog emperor died like this, wouldn't she be able to save a lot of work?

She stood far away, no one noticed, in the corner, her eyes were cold and fierce, and her eyes were like knives.

Zhao family.

"What! the second prince is dead?" everyone looked at the elderly Taiwei Zhao in disbelief.

The white-haired Taiwei Zhao has been planning for the throne for the second prince for most of his life, and now that Xiao Linyuan is dead, he has lost half his life.

On the surface, Taiwei Zhao was very calm, leaning on crutches and trembling up.

However, he had only taken two steps, and the whole person was planted forward, his head hit the ground, and he slammed on the hard threshold.

The crowd was full of astonishment and fear, and rushed to it.

"Daddy—"

"Grandfather!"
