Concubine De left the queen's bedroom under the escort of Wu Degui and Imperial Physician Lin, in the inner palace, there was Wu Degui to guide the way, all the way was smooth, the big and small eunuchs in the harem, the guards on duty, all knew that Gonggong Wu was an important eunuch around the queen mother, no one dared to stop it, Concubine De and her party quickly walked out of the inner palace, and they walked towards the gate of the palace.

Just as they walked into an alley, suddenly, three masked men rushed out of front of them, blocking their way.

Wu Degui asked sharply: "Bold fanatics, you actually blocked our way, are you looking for death?"

"Haha, you're Wu Degui, right? I heard that you are a person from the Queen Mother's side, this matter has nothing to do with you, you quickly dodge, I want this woman and a man next to you, if you don't know the fun, don't blame me for being polite!" said the masked man.

"Listen, these two people around our family are not ordinary people, our family can't let them do any harm, this is a forbidden place in the palace, if the three of you consciously leave, our family will treat this incident as if it didn't happen, and we won't ask about it in the future, if you dare to do it, you will die without a place to be buried, our family advises you, leave as much as possible!" Wu Degui's tone was resolute, not chaotic in the face of danger, and quite a general's demeanor.

"Of course the three brothers and I know what these two people are, you don't stop them if you are ordered to ask for the lives of these two people today, please avoid it Gonggong Wu, we don't want to hurt you, but if you dare to stop it, we will have to offend in order to complete the task!" the masked man warned again.

"Below is Lin Pinghe, the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital, who are you heroes who dare to intercept us? We went to the palace to choose medicine for the queen at the behest of the queen mother, and Gonggong Wu has the queen token in his hand. If you delay the time to treat the queen, you can't afford it, why don't you hurry up and give way!" Lin Pinghe guessed that they might be the people of the virtuous concubine, and he raised the name of the queen mother and wanted them to stop.

"Imperial Doctor Lin, you are a well-known kind-hearted person, we know this, but today we have no choice but to offend, it's not that we want to kill you. It's about having a task. You must be killed, and you will accompany your master-in-law to that side, and when you get there, you master and servant. You can continue to ponder pharmacological prescriptions. I'm sorry. Brothers, do it!" shouted the masked man in the lead.

Concubine De stood between Wu Degui and Lin Pinghe, and she calmly observed. Not a word was spoken.

The three masked men raised their fists and rushed towards Lin Pinghe and Concubine De, Wu Degui hurriedly used his body to protect Concubine De, and shouted: "You three madmen, you really don't want to die, dare to do something to us in the court, if you have the courage, just say it, who sent you?"

Wu Degui pondered: "These three masked men are very familiar with the situation in the palace, they chose to do it in this long alley, which shows that they are very expert killers, this long alley is very quiet, no one lives in the surrounding houses at night, no matter how loud the noise is in this alley, no matter how hard the fight is, no one will hear it, if these three killers are really going to kill the killers, Concubine De and Imperial Doctor Lin will be very dangerous." ”

Wu Degui suspected that the three masked men were killers sent by the Queen Mother, and if this was the case, Concubine De's life would be difficult to protect.

The masked men ignored Wu Degui's questioning, and one of them lifted Wu Degui up and gently threw it into the distance, causing Wu Degui to fall to the ground and unable to get up for a while.

At this time, the three masked men surrounded Concubine De and Lin Pinghe, ready to make a move, and the masked man in the lead said: "He Guifei, we also know that you are the most beautiful and kindest concubine in the harem, and you are also a girl with excellent medical skills, we have great respect for you, but today we are waiting for the task, you have to accept your fate, please close your eyes, we will not let you have pain!"

Lin Pinghe rushed over and blocked Concubine De, he shouted loudly: "Good man, don't come nonsense, since you know that Concubine De Niangniang is a kind-hearted person, you can let her go, accumulate some virtue for your parents and descendants, and you are willing to die for Concubine De Niangniang, you can kill it twice in the next time, but you can't hurt Concubine De Niangniang." ”

"Imperial Physician Lin's loyalty makes me very moved, a good person like you should have lived a long life, but there is no way for me to wait, there is a task in my body, you and Concubine De must die, you go and accompany Concubine De, there is no way, this world is not fair, good people often die earlier than bad people, this is the current reality of the world, we are also powerless to return to the sky, you close your eyes, try to reduce your pain!" said the masked man.

The situation was very critical, and the three masked men were raising their fists and slashing at Concubine De and Lin Pinghe's Heavenly Spirit Gai, when suddenly, the fists of the three masked men were blocked, and they were kicked to the ground at the same time.

"Where did the madman come from, dare to poison Concubine De Niangniang and others in the court, it is really bold, aren't you afraid of being exterminated by the Nine Clans?" said a military attache wearing a brocade guard, a golden helmet and round-necked armor.

The three killers who were kicked to the ground knew that the martial arts of the people who raided them were much higher than them, so they stopped struggling and took the initiative to give up resistance.

"Yang Tongzhi, it turned out to be you, this is great, come over and help the old slave get up!" Wu Degui recognized that it was Yang Rongguang, the commander of Jinyiwei and the military attache of the third grade, who spoke, and he hurriedly shouted to Yang Rongguang.

"Hey, isn't this Gonggong Wu? The juniors were busy saving Concubine De Niangniang, and they didn't see Gonggong Wu here, forgive the sins, forgive the sins!" Yang Rongguang hurriedly ran over and helped Wu Degui up.

Yang Rongguang has great respect for Wu Degui, and three years ago, Yang Rongguang was promoted from a conductor to a conductor, and it was precisely because of Wu Degui's help that it was realized.

Wu Degui pulled Yang Rongguang in front of Concubine De and said: "Concubine De Niangniang, this is Yang Rongguang, the beloved general under Zhang Lianying's father-in-law and the commander of Jinyiwei, he led people to save us." ”

Concubine De said: "Thank you Yang Tongzhi for coming to the rescue, if General Yang is a moment late, Concubine Ben and Imperial Physician Lin will be in danger, go back to express your gratitude to Gonggong Zhang for Concubine Ben." ”

Yang Rongguang said softly to Concubine De: "Weichen asked Concubine De Niangniang to say goodbye, Gonggong Zhang asked him to convey his greetings to Concubine De, Gonggong Zhang said that this time he let him come down to protect Concubine De, it was at the emperor's order, in order to protect the safety of Concubine De, the Queen Mother did not know about this matter, Gonggong Zhang asked Concubine De Niangniang to take care!"

"Thank you, Grandpa Zhang. Please convey Concubine Zhang's gratitude to the emperor, Gonggong Zhang's kindness to Concubine Ben, Concubine Ben knows in her heart, and will remember Gonggong Zhang and Yang Tongzhi's rescue grace in the future!" Concubine De said.

It turned out that Zhang Lianying, like Shen Deyi, has been paying attention to the changes in the situation in the harem and the situation of Concubine De, as the eunuch of the palm seal of the celebrant eunuch, Zhang Lianying will not lose to Shen Deyi in terms of intelligence, and he has also laid a lot of informants throughout the harem. The news of Concubine De's ups and downs in the harem was quickly passed to Zhang Lianying by an informant. Zhang Lianying knew very well about Concubine De's situation, and when Concubine De and Wu Degui got the exit token from the queen, Zhang Lianying quickly knew, and he knew that Concubine De and the others were going to leave the palace.

What to do with this message. Zhang Lianying thought twice. He was conflicted. He didn't know whether to report the news that Concubine De was going out of the palace to the Empress Dowager, or whether he should quietly tell the news to the emperor, finally. Zhang Lianying felt that the Queen Mother was already very old, and the emperor was still very young, he decided to bet on the emperor, he felt that being close to the emperor was more promising than being close to the Queen Mother, so he quietly reported the recent situation of Concubine De to the emperor.

After the emperor got Zhang Lianying's report, he was very angry at his mother's arbitrary behavior, hating her for disposing of Concubine De behind his back, the emperor gave Zhang Lianying an edict, asking Zhang Lianying to do her best to send a capable person to escort Concubine De out of the palace, the emperor was worried that if the queen mother learned that Concubine De left the palace without authorization, she was angry, and it was very likely that she would send someone to follow Concubine De, and even kill Concubine De, the emperor knew that his mother was ruthless and could do anything.

Sure enough, when Yang Rongguang quickly led people to follow Concubine De and waited in the alley, they met three masked people who were about to kill Concubine De and Lin Pinghe, strangely, the masked man did not mean to kill Wu Degui, Yang Rongguang suspected that this masked man was really sent by the Queen Mother.

"Brothers, bring those three bastard assassins over and ask Concubine De to interrogate them herself!" Yang Rongguang shouted.

The three masked people were quickly brought to Concubine De, Yang Rongguang's subordinates removed the black face mask on the faces of the three people, revealing the true faces of the three people, Yang Rongguang looked at it and was surprised, these three people turned out to be one of the Jinyi Guard's calmers and two thousand households, Yang Rongguang knew in his heart that they were sent by Concubine Xian, and these three people were often responsible for protecting Concubine Xian when she was out.

Yang Rongguang faced the acquaintance in front of him, he didn't dare to identify it, he knew very well that he couldn't get involved in the contradiction between Concubine Xian and Concubine De, otherwise, it would be difficult for him to get out of it, he thought about it and said, "Please ask Concubine De to personally interrogate these three assassins!"

"Concubine Ben knows that you will not tell who is behind you, and it is not difficult for you to ask you, 'Do you know why the commander assigned you to kill this concubine?'" Concubine De asked, staring at the assassin.

"Concubine De Niangniang, to be honest, I can't think of why someone wants to kill Concubine De Niangniang, it stands to reason that you are a beautiful and kind concubine in the harem, and there is no reason to be killed, but we are just acting on orders, this time, we have no chance to kill you, this is the best result, in fact, we are not willing to kill a kind person like you, this time I assassinate you, please forgive me, brothers, let's say goodbye to Concubine De Niangniang!" The masked man in the lead shouted loudly.

Yang Rongguang knew that the three assassins in front of him were going to commit suicide, but Yang Rongguang didn't stop them, he knew that the death of the three assassins was the best result, they didn't die, they died, their families could be safe, and the people who instructed them would be relieved to know that they were dead.

Lin Pinghe also felt that the three assassins were about to commit suicide, and he shouted: "They are going to commit suicide", but it was too late to stop them, and the three assassins bit their tongues and committed suicide.

Concubine De thought in her heart: "In this situation, these three people can only commit suicide, they are either sent by Concubine De or Shen Deyi, or they are sent together by Concubine Xian and Shen Deyi after discussion, there is such a master behind the three killers, they were ordered to assassinate without success, if they do not commit suicide, Concubine Xian and Shen Deyi will not let their families go." ”

Wu Degui quietly asked Concubine De: "Could they be people sent by the Queen Mother?"

"Absolutely not, the Queen Mother is in power, she doesn't need to do this, if she wants to deal with this concubine, there is a more convenient way, I guess, it should be the two outside!" Concubine De replied.

"Concubine De Niangniang, they are all derelict in their duties, they did not guard against these three assassins, let them have the opportunity to commit suicide, please Concubine De Niangniang punish Wei Chen!" Yang Rongguang said.

"Forget it, since they have committed suicide, let them go, perhaps, they can only do this, ask General Yang to send someone to bury them properly, they have no choice, Concubine Ben doesn't blame you, and I don't hate these assassins, you go back to thank Gonggong Zhang for Concubine Ben, and thank the emperor!" Concubine De said.

Yang Rongguang received the order, and he said to one of the thousand households under the order: "Xiao Zhang, you escort Concubine De Niangniang, Wu Gonggong, and Imperial Doctor Lin out of the palace, from now on, you listen to Wu Gonggong's orders, and there must be no mistakes!" After speaking, Yang Rongguang turned his head and said to Wu Degui: "Wu Gonggong, the junior asked Xiao Zhang to escort you out of the palace, although Xiao Zhang is young, he is only a thousand households, but he is strong in martial arts, it was Gonggong Zhang who specially ordered him to escort you, let him listen to your command!"

"Thank you Grandpa Zhang for your thoughtful arrangement, Xiao Zhang, thank you for your hard work!"

"I would like to listen to Gonggong Wu's dispatch to escort Concubine De out of the palace!" Xiao Zhang said.

Wu Degui took Xiao Zhang, together with Imperial Physician Lin, to escort Concubine De and continue to walk outside the palace.

As she took a step, Concubine De had a premonition that she felt that the storm that had just passed would not be the only one, and that if she continued to move forward, they would encounter greater danger. (To be continued......)
