Originally, Yunxiu only wanted to do a play, to fulfill her master's order to her.

But now that the scene of the assassination is seen by Wen Zheng, it has become a big event for Tian Ting!

Even if Ye Chu wanted to cover it up, he would have to explain it with words!

Just when Ye Chu was in trouble and Yunxiu was surprised, Wen Zheng rushed over nervously.He grabbed Ye Chuhu behind him, and at the same time, he bumped into the dagger that was stabbing towards him with his shoulder.

Before he had time to run over, Eunuch Zhang let out an exclamation, calling for escort in a sharp voice.

Yunxiu was in a panic and couldn't control the direction of her fall, and because the hidden weapon thrown by the hidden guard hurt her waist, she couldn't reverse the direction of her fall.

The sharp dagger pierced straight into Wen Zheng's shoulder, the outer skin was torn to reveal blood, and then stopped because of the loss of follow-up strength.

Yunxiu was startled, and when she was about to kneel on the ground to admit her mistake, Ye Chu kicked her.

While pulling Wen Zheng back, Ye Chu glared at Yunxiu fiercely from an angle that no one could see, implying that he should leave quickly.

In order to cover Yunxiu's departure, Ye Chu said directly: "Don't chase the dark guards, you are the best here, hurry up and bring the imperial doctor to diagnose the emperor's injury!"

Hearing this, the secret guard who was going to capture Yunxiu immediately stopped, turned around and ran towards the direction of the Supreme Hospital.

Because the emperor was injured, everyone was in a panic. They were all at Ye Chu's orders, and no one cared about Yunxiu who left in a panic.Seeing this, Ye Chu nodded slightly. Although the test was unsuccessful, the strength of the secret guard's execution of the order was very good, and he was not far from being loyal.

Hearing the chaotic footsteps of the imperial guards being transferred from behind, Yunxiu looked flustered.She tried her best to escape by picking up hidden places, scurrying back and forth on the alleys in the palace.

Because she was very familiar with the palace, the selected assassination location was easy to escape, and she didn't run into anyone idle along the way, so she escaped to her residence without much effort.

After she changed her eye-catching clothes and washed and dressed a little, she became a law-abiding female official again.

The news of the emperor's assassination in the palace spread, and the harem was immediately under martial law, and the imperial army who arrested the assassin searched the palace everywhere.

Ye Chu was worried that things might change, so he returned to Fengqi Hall early to sit in charge.She has a high status and is the one who was assassinated, so naturally no one dares to suspect her.

Originally, the imperial guards wanted to follow the rules to check whether there were any suspicious people and objects in Fengxi Palace, but the leading Imperial Guard had just stepped into the gate of Fengqi Palace, and Zhi Qing led a group of court ladies and men.

"My lord, the empress has ordered that the imperial guards are not allowed to set foot in the main hall of Fengqi Hall, so as not to disturb the emperor." Zhi Qing had a distant smile on her face, and it seemed that there was no room for negotiation.

The imperial guards, who were still fighting openly and planning to go in and search, stopped immediately, and a leading captain walked from them.

He looked carefully at the brightly lit main hall, with an unconcealable hospitality on his face, and said: "Since the emperor is resting in Fengxi Hall, naturally I won't disturb you."

Yunxiu, who was standing behind Zhiqing, didn't change her face, but she let out a big sigh of relief.

I just heard the commander of the imperial army say with interest: "This is the residence of the empress, and all the aunts are also loyal! Please also ask Aunt Zhiqing to bring a reliable person to conduct a self-examination, and we rough people will not go in!"

With the captain of the forbidden army as an example, the people who came to search afterward only asked the maids in Fengqi Palace to conduct a self-examination, and did not dare to come in to offend Ye Chu.

Yunxiu was among the crowd, except for her slightly weird posture when walking, no one could tell that she was injured in the waist by Ye Chu's dark guards in the Royal Garden just now.

Wen Zheng felt that the assassin's arrival was strange, and when everyone called the imperial doctor to send him to the nearest palace for medical treatment, he insisted on accompanying Ye Chu back to Fengqi Palace.

Because Wen Zheng rested in Fengqi Hall, Ye Chu didn't dare to order someone to destroy all the things that Yunxiu failed to clean up in time.Hearing that Zheng was assassinated, he was extremely vigilant at this time, and specially ordered someone to protect him.

Fengqi Palace was right under his nose, Ye Chu couldn't guarantee that when he ordered someone to destroy the clothes and daggers used by Yunxiu in the assassination, whether it would cause a commotion and startle the hidden guards around Wen Zheng!

It was not until the next day when Wen Zheng went to the court surrounded by everyone that Ye Chu had a chance to resolve the matter.

But just last night, the people beside Wen Zheng had already quietly explored the Fengqi Palace.

In the middle of the night, the forbidden army in the palace searched for the assassin for a long time but could not find it.When the general of the forbidden army reported it to Wen Zheng, it immediately aroused the suspicion of the latter.

To be able to set up an ambush on Ye Chu's seldom-visited path, he must know Ye Chu's itinerary well, and to escape from the imperial garden so skillfully, it is probably the people around Ye Chu who acted.

Wen Zheng was really worried that someone would arrange someone with a ulterior motive around Ye Chu, so he quietly asked people to search for Fengqi Palace.But this time, the investigation yielded a result that surprised him.

Especially when Ye Chu found the opportunity to finish Yunxiu immediately, it made him feel unbelievable.

"In your opinion, could it be that the assassination of the Empress in the imperial garden was directed and acted by herself?" Wen Zheng asked in a deep voice, staring at the dark guard kneeling in front of him, his gaze turned cold.

This secret guard has been following Wen Zheng's side, and he was the one who inspected Fengqi Palace yesterday.

There was a look of embarrassment on the dark guard's face, and he didn't expect that such an inside story would be involved in an ordinary investigation!

If the queen really directed and acted in this assassination, what is the purpose?

But in this assassination, it was his master who was injured in the end...

Although his heart was in a state of confusion, the secret guard still abided by his duty and explained in detail what he had discovered: "In a side room of Fengqi Palace, my subordinate found the dagger and night clothes used for the assassination. The dagger was still stained with blood. There are bloodstains, it was indeed used for assassination..."

He was only halfway through his words when Wen Zheng slapped the table and scolded coldly: "That's enough, I know what's in my mind, just back down!"

Seeing the figure of the dark guard disappear in front of him, Wen Zheng pursed his lips and remained silent for a while, then unconsciously put his hand on his injured shoulder.

Now that he closes his eyes, he can recall Ye Chu's gentle look when he bandaged his wound and treated his wound last night. Looking back now, there is indeed a trace of imperceptible guilt in that expression.

But why did Ye Chu order his cronies to assassinate him? Is his entry a coincidence or intentional?

Chaotic thoughts flashed through Wen Zheng's mind, he couldn't help but sighed, not daring to think about it any more.
