Chapter 233 Everyone's Suspicious
a smile finally graced Xiao Yuge's face: "By the way, Wind Guardian, from now on, I'll be residing here at Ruyi Pavilion."“Yes! The room in the backyard has also been prepared for you, master.”Rememb..."Your Highness, are you feeling better now" Xiao Yuge was very grateful to him. Although he was disabled, at the critical moment, he still used his flesh and blood to block the sword for her. Just, he didn't know that even if he hadn't blocked the sword, she could have dodged it, but it would have exposed her martial arts.
She thought that even though she had just acted, they probably only saw her as mediocre, and she hadn't used any advanced martial arts moves. Even if they asked, she could explain it as something her brother taught her.
"I'm much better now, thank you, Gē'er." Qian Yi'an's already pale face was even paler at this moment.
“I should be the one thanking you. If it weren't for you, that sword would have taken my life.” Xiao Yuge frowned, a puzzled expression on her face: “That person was clearly targeting me. Speaking of which, this is the deep palace. What kind of person would want to assassinate me here”
At that moment, Lianxin pondered for a while and replied, "From my humble servant's perspective, he should be a master from the Imperial Court or perhaps a member of the Shadow Guard. His martial arts are simply too peculiar! In all the time I've been in this palace, I've never seen anything like it!"
"Internal palace masters Shadow Guards" Xiao Yu Ge's face turned even worse. Those were only summonable by the Emperor, weren't they Could it be that the Emperor wanted to kill her
No way, this is so sinister I was just giving her a pardon, and now you're sending people to kill her Are you going back on your word Hmph! Sure enough, none of the royal family are trustworthy!
Luckily, I just gave that person two needles. The poison on top, even if it doesn't kill him, will peel his skin off!
Seeing that it was getting late, she remembered that Qian Tingxuan had told her to wait for him at the palace gate. As a result, she had completely forgotten! Now she was in trouble; he would definitely make her do extra training as punishment.
"Your Highness, it's getting late. I should be going back now. Your wounds still need several more applications of medicine. Without an imperial edict, I cannot enter the palace at will. Tomorrow, you have Lotus Heart come to Ruyi Pavilion. I will prepare the medicine for her to bring and change for you."
"Alright, be careful."
Qian Yi An sent her out of the bamboo forest, watching her petite figure, the corner of his lips unconsciously rose, he lowered his head to look at her bandaged wound, a warmth like sunshine gushed into his chest, she was the first person who cared about him so much.
"My lord, that person just now must have been from the Emperor's personal guard." Lian Xin lowered her voice.
"Are you sure" Qian Yi'an's face was devoid of any expression, a stark contrast to the gentle and soft appearance he had moments ago.
Lianxin nodded her head: "This servant can be certain! His martial arts moves are exactly the same as my sister's. This servant's martial arts were all taught by my sister, so naturally, I can tell."
"Father would actually send guards to kill Ge'er Why would he do such a thing" Qian Yi'an couldn't understand. Ge'er had just saved the Emperor, how could he turn around and try to kill her
"Your Highness, are you worried about Miss Xiao"
"Don't worry, Ge'er is surrounded by so many people protecting her, she'll be fine." Qian Yi'an was quite relieved about this. Not to mention Xiao Huashang, even his second brother, if anything happened to Ge'er, his second brother would probably go crazy too. His good second brother, when he went crazy, wasn't ordinary crazy at all.
"What should we do now"
Qian Yi'an narrowed his eyes, looking into the depths of the bamboo forest. After a long time, he said: "First, send someone to keep an eye on the eldest prince and let him fight with the second brother. We just watch the play from the sidelines. By the way, Lianxin, was it you who injured that guard just now" They had already waited for so many years, no need to rush this time.
Lian Xin shook her head. "It wasn't me, I thought it was Your Highness secretly behind this."
“He clearly was injured before he left. When did he get hurt” Qian Yi’an furrowed his brows, recalling everything that had just happened in the courtyard. But he really hadn't noticed anyone making a move beside him.
"Your Highness, do you mean Miss Xiao did this" Lianxin was also confused, following quickly to shake her head and deny it: "Impossible! Miss Xiao's martial arts are ordinary, at first glance she just shows off with fancy moves, she couldn't possibly have hurt that person."
"This Palace didn't see her make a move either." Qian Yi'an was also baffled. Of course, he never dreamed that Xiao Yuge's current skill was so high, let alone him, even Qian Tingxuan had been kept in the dark. I'm afraid even the guard who was injured didn't know who had attacked him.
"Your Highness, please forgive me, I spoke wrongly just now and should not have mentioned the Emperor's guards..."
However, this time, Qian Yi'an expressed agreement with her approach: “No! You are right on point. Ge'er is so smart, she would definitely think it was the Emperor who sent someone to kill her. What do you think she will tell after going back”
Miss Xiao is innocent and naive. She will certainly tell Prince Xiaoyao and the Crown Prince exactly what happened today.
"That's right, if Little Uncle and this palace's second brother knew that the emperor was going to kill Ge'er, what do you think they would do" Qian Yi An's pale lips twitched slightly, as if everything was within his plan.
"Given the Duke and Prince's infatuation with Miss Xiao, they will surely turn against the Emperor." Lianxin seemed to have understood something as well, and she also pursed her lips into a smile.
“Even if they didn't become enemies, there would definitely be a distance between them. By the way, keep an eye on the eldest prince's every move. Lords Rong, Fan, Feng, and Zhao, all four of them are his people. They suddenly lost four helpers, he and his mother concubine should be in a hurry.”
According to our sources, he has been getting close to the National Security Princess recently.
"Xiao Yu Fu" Qian Yi'an narrowed his icy eyes, a cold smile playing at the corner of his lips: "Just a fake chosen one, worthy of them fighting over each other They are all blind, mistaking trash for treasure!"
"Your Highness is still so wise. You just blocked a sword for Miss Xiao, I estimate Miss Xiao will have a new view of Your Highness."
This time, Qian Yi'an remained silent. He just stared at the beauty in the painting throughout the courtyard, lost in thought. Yes, her smile was so pure and innocent, especially those large, bright eyes filled with innocence, making it hard to bear the thought of harming her, but...
"Song!"
As soon as Xiao Yu Ge walked out of the bamboo forest, she bumped into Qian Si Chen.
"Brother SiChen!" Though she hated this man with all her heart, she still had to put on a show of affection. She didn't even want to see him because every time she did, the hatred from their past life would resurface, causing her heart to ache.
She couldn't forget, it was this man who killed her with his own hands!
"Song'er, are you really going to be with the little uncle You promised me, you were going to marry me!" Qian Si Chen's eyes were a bit scattered, and thinking about losing her made his heart even more chaotic.
"So what" Compared to his outburst, Xiao Yuge appeared much calmer: "Didn't you also promise me that you would only marry me Now you are also going to marry my elder sister" She had personally heard the Empress discussing Qian Si Chen's marriage with Xiao Yufu.e raised his hand again and gave Qing Luo a crisp slap, so hard that blood welled up at the corner of her mouth. It seemed as if he'd hurt his own hand, for he shook his wrist and motioned to his atte...
