Peerless Female Bandit: Carry A Husband Home - C183

Yue Ying thought, “He came very quickly, it hasn’t even been fifteen minutes and the mastermind has already rushed over.”

Although it was dangerous in the palace, Tie Yi should still be safe for the time being. She had already locked the door to the main hall, and all the windows were sealed from the inside, even if they found out that Tie Yi had gone out, it would not be able to prove that he had gone out.

However, just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard from Noble Consort Guo, “Chenqie has heard that the ancestor of the Iron family had once guarded the private treasury for the First Emperor, and is extremely close to the old officials of the palace.”

scolded in his heart. He had already found out that the eunuch was from your palace, but you actually dared to stir up trouble here, and bring this matter to Grandfather Tie Yi?

He could only lie down and continue listening. It was almost daybreak, ifhe did not go out the palace when it was day, she would be discovered, but if she did not say these words, Tie Yi was not safe.

“My beloved concubine, you mean that this person was ordered by the Iron family?” The Emperor was a little hesitant.

“This concubine is only a reminder to Your Majesty that this Young Eunuch is someone from the Imperial Concubine Palace. He has done such a heinous thing in private, and the concubine naturally has to take responsibility for it.” How could a concubine be so muddleheaded as to send someone to assassinate him? It is likely that the one who is most afraid of Princess Anle in this palace is the concubine, and would not even make it in time to protect her. How could she provoke suspicion herself, Your Majesty? The Noble Consort Guo said as she wiped the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief.

The Emperor felt that what she said was reasonable. Now that the suspicious eunuch was dead, there was a need for further investigation as to whether the Iron family had ordered this person to or not. However, it was not a matter of one or two days. The most important thing was for the Queen to wake up and finish what she had to say.

“Return to the palace first. We will definitely give you an explanation for this matter.” After being disturbed by the Noble Consort Guo, he was no longer sleepy anymore. Looking at the Queen who was unconscious, he walked out of the palace and thought to herself, No matter what happens tomorrow, we must get these two married and let the Queen explain the location of the treasure.

The sky had already turned white, so when the guards under the porch changed shifts, Yue Ying didn’t dare to move recklessly. Helplessly, she could only take advantage of the change in shift time to hide on the roof.

It was fortunate that the imperial palace’s beams were thick and sturdy, making it difficult for Yue Ying to be discovered hiding on top of them. However, she was hungry. Ever since she discovered that she was pregnant, her appetite had been especially good. It was unbearable, and her heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat.

Yue Ying thought that she should bear with it. After she was too hungry, she would not be hungry anymore, but the more she thought about it, the hungrier she felt.

It wasn’t until after waiting until the emperor had finally left, when the people in the room had each found a place to take a nap, that Yue Ying dared to sneakily slip down from the roof beam to quickly wrap herself up with her clothes and climb back onto the roof beam to enjoy the peace of mind and teapot.

Eunuch Tian Xi, who was standing beside the empress, was very quick-witted. He noticed that the things on the table were missing and did not make any noise.

Yue Ying’s eyes met his, her body trembled, and she almost fell down. He slowly turned around and closed her eyes, pretending to be napping, and then Yue Ying heaved a sigh of relief, she patted her chest and comforted his beating heart. It was so dangerous.

At daybreak, Dr Ginkou came to report, and several important members of the Ministry of Rites had arrived early to arrange everything.

The embroidery mother of the sewing department had rushed all night to make a wedding dress. She sent a set to the Princess Palace and a set to Tie Yi.

The wedding was set to be held at dawn. Tie Yi was summoned early in the morning to wash and change his clothes, to go to the Princess Palace to get married, to perform the ceremony at the Phoenix Maiden Palace, and then the couple would return to Honorable Marquis’ Mansion.

Tie Yi was like a puppet at the mercy of others.

Seeing how his beloved was behaving in front of other people, only Yue Ying knew what it was like right now. Although she knew that Tie Yi was forced to do it, she still couldn’t take this lying down.

Several times the Emperor had walked under the beam, but she had been tempted to throw the silver hairpin at the great artery on his neck, causing him to bleed profusely and die.

However, there were skilled imperial doctors and formidable imperial guards. After weighing the pros and cons, they had no choice but to give up.

When the newbies both came to pay their respects, the court judge personally gave the empress a needle. This needle could wake the empress up, but it would also take her life, so he could only do it when they were done.

The room was completely silent. Although there were a lot of people standing inside and out, it was absolutely silent. It was not hot in the room, but the magistrate was sweating profusely.

The empress slowly opened her eyes when the acupuncture was over. “Where is my peace and quiet?”

Princess Anle endured the pain in her chest as she was supported by two palace maids to kneel in front of the empress.

The empress was helped to sit up, her lips were purple, and said with a trembling voice, “Alright, good child, where is Tie Yi?”

Under everyone’s covetous gaze, Tie Yi took a few steps forward, “This official is here!”

“Alright, child, I’ll leave An Le to you. You have to treat her well.” The Queen pleaded.

Tie Yi clenched his teeth, “This subject obeys!”

Yue Ying almost threw the teapot at his head in hatred.

However, the princess looked very pitiful. Despite being heavily stabbed, she had to put on a thick layer of makeup to pretend that nothing had happened. It truly wasn’t easy.

After the ceremony, the princess was on the verge of collapse. The emperor was afraid that the empress would notice something amiss, so he asked the assistant minister to escort them back to the house of the Marquis.

As soon as they were gone, the Emperor ordered everyone in the room to leave, leaving only himself to listen to what the Empress had to say.

“Now you must be satisfied,” the Emperor said eagerly.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely tell you everything.” The empress took a breath. “The secret of the treasure was recorded in the palace’s secret records. But you burned down the library to prevent the late emperor from leaving any traces behind, so we can’t find the treasure anymore …”

The emperor anxiously spun around twice. No more, what are you talking about? There’s nothing useful to say!

“But from Yue Shengchang’s tone, the person who can protect the map is definitely one of the late emperor’s most trusted aides … Key… Is Red… “A jade pendant …” With that, the empress could no longer hold on, spitting out a mouthful of black blood before collapsing dead.

The emperor didn’t have a trace of sadness in his heart. He only stared blankly out of the window. The poor library had already been set ablaze. The records from that year could not be found, the maps had to be found.

“Ah Fu!” The Emperor called out, and an old eunuch came in.

“The funeral will begin in three days. The place is temporarily sealed up. Those who served by the empress’s side will all be buried alive.”
