Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

As Xiaolu cried, Guo Hui’er got anxious. She seized Xiaolu’s collars and shook him, “Tell me. What’s wrong with Eldest Prince?”

Xiaolu looked at Guo Hui’er with tearful eyes, “Eldest… Eldest Prince passed away…”

Guo Hui’er was stunned at once. She stood in situ in a daze, her hands still seizing Xiaolu’s collars. She could think of nothing but the fact that Eldest Prince was dead.

Dead. Her son was dead. This was impossible. Definitely impossible…

Guo Hui’er seized Xiaolu’s collars again, her eyes seething with rage, “You rogue, who sent you here? How dare you lie to me! You deserve to die!”

Xiaolu couldn’t help trembling and swallowed nervously, “Your Majesty Empress, how dare I lie to you? Eldest Prince… Eldest Prince is really dead. His body is still in the Jingfu Palace now!”

Guo Hui’er pushed away Xiaolu abruptly and staggered back in dejection, muttering, “Impossible. This is impossible. I don’t believe it…”

Then, Guo Hui’er pointed at Xiaolu maliciously and roared, “It’s you. You’re deceiving me. I must slash you to pieces.”

Guo Hui’er exerted a rush of green mysterious Qi and threw it at Xiaolu.

Xiaolu was startled and said hurriedly, “Not me. Eldest Prince was dead because of Prince Zhan…” Xiaolu explained and hurriedly rolled aside to dodge that.

Currently, Guo Hui’er wouldn’t listen to Xiaolu’s explanation. When Guo Hui’er saw that Xiaolu dodged her mysterious Qi, her eyes became fierce. She threw another rush of green mysterious Qi at Xiaolu.

Seeing the scene, Xiaolu immediately got up and ran for his life. Sweat stood out on his forehead. He was very regretful. Originally, he thought it was an easy and profitable job, but to his astonishment, Her Majesty suddenly went mad. Her Majesty was born in a family of military officers, so her cultivation base was not low. Judging from her mysterious Qi’s color, obviously, she had become a medium Mysterious King. If he had known about this, he wouldn’t risk his life coming here no matter how much money he was given!

The green mysterious Qi was banging around in the room. Xiaolu escaped pathetically. The whole room instantly became rather messy.

A rush of green mysterious Qi went at Xiaolu’s face. Xiaolu directly hid behind the screen in fear.

The green mysterious Qi hit the screen. Immediately, the screen was crushed.

“Your Majesty, what happened?” Wenyi, Guo Hui’er’s close palace maid knocked on the door and asked, but Guo Hui’er didn’t seem to hear that. She directly rushed at Xiaolu and dragged him up. Then, she struck a palm at Xiaolu’s head.

Seeing the palm getting nearer, Xiaolu took out his dagger in a moment of desperation and stabbed it into Guo Hui’er’s chest.

The sharp pain in her chest made Guo Hui’er let out a groan. She slowly lowered her head to look at her chest.

Xiaolu also slowly looked at Guo Hui’er’s chest and instantly paled at the dagger stabbed into Guo Hui’er’s chest. His hands also started to tremble. He had stabbed Her Majesty Empress!

Guo Hui’er stared at the dagger stabbed into her chest. Without thinking much, she pulled the dagger out of her chest. Instantly, a trickle of blood spurted out. Guo Hui’er’s face became pale at once and her body just fell backward.

The door was directly kicked open with a bang. Wenyi guarding outside directly broke in.

“Your Majesty…” Wenyi was shocked to see the scene in the room and directly shouted, “Guards! Guards! Her Majesty has been assassinated.”

Upon hearing Wenyi’s shout, Xiaolu immediately came to his senses and said in a panic, “I didn’t. I didn’t do this on purpose. She made me. She made me…”

Sputtering incoherently, Xiaolu pushed Wenyi away and ran out.

The news that Guo Hui’er was assassinated was spread throughout the whole imperial palace very quickly.

In the imperial study.

Upon hearing that Guo Hui’er was assassinated, Xuanyuan Lie directly smashed the desk.

“Who did it?” Xuanyuan Lie’s voice was furious. Xuanyuan She was just dead. Now, his empress was assassinated. Who on earth wanted to kill them?

“It… It was a eunuch called Xiaolu…” Eunuch Hu lowered his head with a guilty look. He was the chief eunuch but a subordinate of his did such an evil thing under his nose. He felt extremely guilty!

Eunuch? Xuanyuan Lie knitted his brows. Since the empress was confined, the Le’an Palace was strictly guarded. How did the eunuch assassinate her?

“Where is the assassinator now?”

His cold and shrill voice made Eunuch Hu subconsciously tremble. He immediately said with a bow, “Xiaolu has been confined to the Le’an Palace.”

Upon hearing that, Xuanyuan Lie had a glimmer of fierceness in his eyes, “I’ll go to Le’an Palace.”

In the Yonghe Palace.

“Your Highness, bad news…” Lian’er, Zhou Manyun’s close palace maid, broke into Zhou Manyun’s bedding palace in a fluster.

Zhou Manyun saw Lian’er break into the room in a flurry and arched her eyebrows leisurely, “Why are you so panicked?”

Her soft voice was somewhat disgruntled.

“Your Highness, Xiaolu has been in trouble.” Feeling Zhou Manyun’s unhappiness, Lian’er calmed down at once.

Upon hearing that, Zhou Manyun slightly frowned, “What happened?”

“Xiaolu… He stabbed Her Majesty Empress,” Lian’er said and meanwhile peeked at Zhou Manyun’s face.

Zhou Manyun directly sat up from the daybed. Her face was no longer leisurely but grim, “Where is he?”

“In the Le’an Palace.” Lian’er’s voice was a bit hurried. Sweat stood out on her forehead. It was because Xiaolu was captured that she became so worried. If Xiaolu were in another place, she wouldn’t let him have a chance to speak again.

“That idiot!” Upon hearing that Xiaolu was in the Le’an Palace, Zhou Manyun also looked flurried, “Who asked him to assassinate the empress?”

Zhou Manyun only let him tell that woman that her precious son was killed by the bastard she hated to the core. Unexpectedly, Xiaolu was so stupid that he assassinated Guo Hui’er and got caught on the spot. He was so stupid!

“Let’s go to the Le’an Palace.” Zhou Manyun’s coquettish eyes glistened with fierceness. With a flick of sleeves, she directly got up and headed to the Le’an Palace.

Seeing the scene, Lian’er followed her at once.

In Prince Zhan’s mansion.

“Your Highness,” Yu Feng knocked on the door and said.

“Come in.” Xuanyuan Mo didn’t raise his head and still focused on reviewing the memorials. It seemed that he had had countless memorials to review since he became the crown prince.

“Your Highness, news came from the palace that the woman of the Le’an Palace had been assassinated,” Yu Feng came in and directly reported.

Upon hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo finally jerked up his head from the memorials and said with a frown, “Is she dead?”

Yu Feng immediately shook his head and said, “I’m not sure of it. I guess not.” If she was dead, the news that the empress passed away should have been spread everywhere by now!

Xuanyuan frowned, his amber eyes glistening fiercely. To assassinate the empress at the moment didn’t sound like what that woman would do!

“Please let go of my mother if it’s possible.” Xuanyuan Mo suddenly thought of what Xuanyuan She said and knitted his eyebrows.

“Let’s go into the imperial palace.” He put down the brush pen and walked out of the study. Since he had promised Xuanyuan She, he wouldn’t go back on his word.

In the Le’an Palace.

“His Majesty has arrived…”

The palace maids and eunuchs of the Le’an Palace all knelt upon hearing the chant, “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Xuanyuan Lie ignored them and scurried into Guo Hui’er’s bedding palace.

Wenyi and a few palace maids in the bedding palace immediately saluted Xuanyuan Lie upon seeing him, “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

“How is the empress doing?” Xuanyuan Lie asked and walked into the room.

When Wenyi heard that, her eyes became red at once. She followed Xuanyuan Lie and said, “Doctor Liu is treating Her Majesty inside.”

Xuanyuan Lie walked to the bedside and felt taken aback to see Guo Hui’er’s grey hair. Then, he subconsciously frowned at her pale face.

Upon seeing Xuanyuan Lie, Doctor Liu immediately stood up and prostrated himself, “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Xuanyuan Lie waved his hand and said with a frown, “How is she doing?”

Doctor Liu immediately said with a bow, “Her Majesty is seriously injured. Just as well her cultivation level isn’t low. She’s fine for now and will wake up soon.”

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Lie let out a sigh of relief and looked at Guo Hui’er, who was lying in bed with a pale face. A shimmer of killing intent flashed across his eyes.

He turned around and glanced at the palace maids fiercely, “Take good of the empress. If anything happens to her, you’ll all die with her.”

“Yes.” All the palace maids prostrated themselves at once.

In the main hall of the Le’an Palace.

Xuanyuan Lie looked at Xiaolu trembling in front, his eyes filled with fierceness, “Why did you assassinate the empress?” His voice was utterly cold.

Upon hearing the cold voice, Xiaolu shivered more seriously. His mind was entirely blank. He couldn’t make a sound at all.

“Tell me. Who sent you to assassinate the empress?” Xuanyuan Lie smashed a table directly.

Xiaolu subconsciously trembled and broke out in a cold sweat. He looked down and struggled.

“Guards. Take this eunuch down and kill him.” Not hearing any answer, Xuanyuan Lie lost his patience.

“No, Your Majesty.” Upon hearing Xuanyuan Lie’s words, Xiaolu freaked out and stared at him, saying anxiously, “I’ll tell you. It’s…”

“Here arrives Her Highness Consort Hui…” When Xiaolu was about to talk of the ringleader, a eunuch’s chant sounded from outside the hall.

Upon hearing the chant, Xuanyuan Lie subconsciously frowned. Why did she come at the moment?
