The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C183
Chapter 182 – Assassination
“Your Majesty, are you alright?” Imperial Consort Yu stood in front of Emperor Ming.
“Who?” “Come out.” The Imperial Consort Yu roared.
One of the guards had already taken the dart and handed it to the emperor.
“Your Majesty, there is a word engraved on this dart.” Imperial Consort Yu said by her side.
Emperor Ming looked at the dart above. There was a “Yun” on the handle of the dart?
Could it be the Emperor Yun?
“Find that person for me, or you can meet him with your heads raised.” Emperor Ming’s eyes shot out a sharp glare as he said that.
The guards had already scattered and were patrolling one by one.
Emperor Ming looked around, then suddenly said to the young eunuch beside him: “Where is Concubine Qin? Where did she go? ”
At this time, Qin Luofei was wandering around the temple with the Ling Wang.
“Big brother, why did you come with me? Your mission is to protect the emperor’s safety.”
Ling Wang looked at his own little sister, who was becoming skinnier and skinnier. His heart was in extreme pain as he said, “The Emperor has Imperial Consort Yu and guards by his side, why would he need my protection? My mission is to protect my good little sister.”
“Big brother.” Qin Luofei could no longer say any more. In the past, her relationship with this brother wasn’t the best in Qin Manor, but he had always been sincere to her.
Just as the two of them were talking, a guard ran over from behind them, panting as he said, “The Ling Wang is in trouble, the Emperor was ambushed just now. The Emperor is currently looking for the Prince and Concubine Qin, the Prince should head back quickly to take a look.”
“What?” The Emperor was assassinated. ” Ling Wang and Qin Luofei looked at each other, wondering how could something like this happen.
Qin Luofei quickly said, “Big Brother, let’s go back quickly! In case the Emperor is suspicious. ”
Ling Wang nodded and followed the guards back to the temple.
“Your Majesty, are you alright?” Ling Wang walked in front of the emperor. He did not bow, but first he swept his gaze over the emperor. Only after seeing that the emperor was not injured did he feel at ease.
The emperor’s gaze swept across Qin Luofei and the Ling Wang, then said faintly, “I, am fine, just … That assassin has not been found yet. ”
Qin Luofei knew that the Imperial Consort Yu and the Emperor were together. Seeing the Imperial Consort Yu’s pale face, she couldn’t help but support her and whispered, “Little sister, how are you?”
The Imperial Consort Yu shook her head, and laughed with difficulty: “I’m fine, just that those darts almost hurt the Emperor, they really scared me. These people are really bold, even the Emperor dares to assassinate them.”
Qin Luofei saw the grave expression on Emperor Ming’s face, she was afraid that he would be suspicious, so she didn’t dare to say anything.
“It’s all my fault for being careless. I thought there wouldn’t be any mishaps as long as the emperor is protected by his guards and Imperial Consort Yu. I, Chendi, am guilty.” Ling Wang was blaming himself.
The emperor’s gaze lightly paused on Ling Wang’s handsome face, and he said, “Ling Wang, where did you and Concubine Qin go? If it wasn’t for Imperial Consort Yu by my side, I’m afraid something bad would have happened to us. Look at this dart. ”
Ling Wang took the dart. There was a word carved on the dart: Yun.
“Could it be the usurped Emperor Yun?” Ling Wang talked to himself.
The eyes of Qin Luofei, who was standing at the side, lit up. Emperor Yun was actually in the capital?
“Emperor Ming, this is probably … Do you want me to send more people to search for him in the capital? ” Ling Wang hurriedly asked.
“Do you think that even if he returns to the capital, he might let us find him?” The Emperor Ming had secretly sent more people to search for the whereabouts of the Emperor Yun, but there was still no sign of his whereabouts.
Emperor Ming looked at Qin Luofei strangely. Emperor Yun had a lot of feelings for this woman, as long as she remained in the Imperial Palace for one day, he would naturally appear one day.
Emperor Ming was extremely vigilant against all the men who came in contact with Qin Luofei. Last night, he did this because he was worried that Emperor Yun would be by her side in a different identity.
“Concubine Qin, where do you think Emperor Yun is?” Emperor Ming stared at Qin Luofei as he asked.
“This concubine doesn’t know either.” Qin Luofei shook her head helplessly.
Emperor Ming spoke as if he had connections with him.
I haven’t seen him since we left the palace.
“If you know his whereabouts, do not hide it from me. However, you cannot hide it from me either.” Emperor Ming whispered into Qin Luofei’s ear as he walked over.
Right at this moment, Qin Luofei felt that she was being held responsible. This man actually doubted her so much.
“Your Majesty, chenqie doesn’t know what you’re talking about.” Qin Luofei was still unable to hold herself back in the end.
“Since you don’t know, then it’s best if you don’t know. No matter who it is in the palace, as long as you discover the person who betrayed me, you will be killed without question.” Emperor Ming glared at Qin Luofei as he gnashed his teeth.
Qin Luofei retracted her gaze, and lightly said, “Your Majesty is right.”
Emperor Ming shook his hands, turned around and left.
The guards and eunuchs around Emperor Ming were also dejected, afraid that Emperor Ming would blame them.
On the way back, Imperial Concubine Yun and Qin Luofei took a ride in a car. When Imperial Concubine Yun saw that Qin Luofei had been depressed ever since she got on the car, she quickly consoled her, “Elder sister, don’t mind it. The emperor is actually complaining that you and Ling Wang aren’t by his side, that’s why he said that.”
“Little sister, I’m fine. It’s you who’s got a fright. You need to take a good rest.” Qin Luofei took the soft pillow and let the Imperial Consort Yu lean on it.
Imperial Consort Yu held onto Qin Luofei’s hand, smiled, and said: “I’m fine. Your Majesty had misunderstood Big Sister, and caused me to suffer.”
“There are some matters that little sister you won’t understand. The feud between the Emperor and I is too deep. In the heart of the Emperor, no matter how I explain it, he will never believe me again. ” Qin Luofei felt a faint sadness in her heart.
The Imperial Consort Yu also sighed slightly, saying, “Elder sister, don’t be sad. Next time, let me, your younger sister, help Elder sister, speak up for you in front of the Emperor.”
“No, definitely not. Don’t affect your relationship with the Emperor just because of me.” Qin Luofei said anxiously. Imperial Consort Yu was a prideful person, she didn’t want any unnecessary misunderstanding between her and the Emperor because of her.
“Okay then. Seeing you being wronged like this elder sister, I also feel very uncomfortable in my heart.” Imperial Consort Yu’s heartfelt words moved Qin Luofei a little.
It was her fortune to be able to meet these good sisters in the palace.
When everyone returned to the public, the Emperor directly brought the Ling Wang into the royal study to discuss matters.
Qin Luofei and Imperial Concubine Yun returned to their respective chambers.
The palace had also become more cautious because of the assassination attempt on the emperor.
The number of guards in the palace had increased twofold, and the newly recruited names in the palace required the Emperor and Ling Wang to personally look at, as well as personally look into them when necessary.
At this time, Leng Mu and Imperial Physician Lin were in the study room arguing.
“You mean he suspects you? Then why did you do such a dangerous thing today? Are you tired of living? ” Imperial Physician Lin was very angry because he didn’t care about his safety.
Leng Mu remained indifferent, and laughed: “This way, he won’t suspect that I am in the palace. I suspect that he is already wary of me regarding the Concubine Qin incident last time, which is why he came up with this plan.”
The Imperial Physician Lin sighed a breath of relief, and said: “So that’s the case. I was wondering why you suddenly created that dart, it’s actually because of this.”
Leng Mu frowned. As long as he was not careful, he could be discovered, Emperor Ming was too shrewd, if he wanted to overthrow, he would need a few more days.
“Send some medicine to concubine Luo.” Lin He gave him a bag of herbs.
Leng Mu took the opportunity to inquire about the flying darts during the delivery.
As expected, the news about the Emperor Yun began to spread within the palace. The palace maids not far away were all discussing the news of the Emperor Yun returning to the capital.
Leng Mu walked over and intentionally said.
“Who is the Emperor Yun that you are talking about?”
The palace maids who had worshipped him for a long time rushed to tell him about the Emperor Yun. Actually, Leng Mu had already felt that someone was following him from the start, it seemed that the Emperor Ming was still worried about him.
concubine Luo’s complexion was getting better and better every day. Seeing Leng Mu deliver the medicine over, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
“It’s been hard on you. If it weren’t for you and me in Master Leng, I would still be lying on the bed.” Luo Ziyan’s complexion was rosy, compared to when she was sick before, she looked even more beautiful.
“Luo Ziyan, this was also only recovered quickly because you took care of it yourself.” Leng Mu was extremely humble, upon seeing how this woman was beautiful before, although her complexion was much better, it was still inferior to before.
Luo Ziyan half leaned on her body, and laughed: “I’m afraid that I will need a long period of recuperation to recover, and during this period of time, I will have to trouble Master Leng to deliver medicine to me.”
Leng Mu put away the medicinal bowl properly and said: “Regarding the matter of duty, concubine Luo does not need to be courteous.”
“Master Leng, to be honest, when I first saw you, I felt that you were very familiar.” concubine Luo had also noticed this, and his eyes were still sizing up Leng Mu’s body.
Leng Mu lowered his head, he did not dare to look straight, since there was a difference between males and females. Right now, he was only an apprentice physician, how could he dare to stare at concubine?
“Master Leng doesn’t need to be so formal here. Could it be that you don’t even dare to look at me?” It was because of this familiarity that caused concubine Luo to become even more curious about this face.
Leng Mu had no choice but to raise his head. Right now, with Lin He’s disguise, it was difficult for ordinary people to see through him. This made him feel at ease.
concubine Luo had been staring at Leng Mu from the very first moment.
“Your eyes are familiar.” Luo Cai’s thin lips slightly parted.
“Is that so? “The world is big, and there are countless people who have similar gazes, but this one is very curious about who I look like.” Leng Mu’s voice did not contain any emotion.
“Secret.” concubine Luo gave a mysterious smile, she knew that there were spies everywhere in the palace and it was inconvenient to bring up this person’s name here.
Seeing that Luo Ziyan was already starting to suspect him, Leng Mu did not dare delay any longer and immediately said: “concubine Luo, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave.”
Luo Ziyan nodded, but continued to look at Leng Mu, she truly felt that he looked like a person.
When Leng Mu came out of concubine Palace, he had noticed that there were people following him from behind. If he was not mistaken, it should be the Emperor’s men.
It seemed like the arrangements outside the palace were still not enough to make him let down his guard.
When he returned to Taiyuan Hospital, he found that she was busy in her room.
“What is this? Which imperial concubine is sick? ” Leng Mu asked curiously.
“No, the person beside the emperor suddenly asked me to help him open a An Shen Tang, and intentionally asked for you to send it over.” Lin He’s eyes were unsettled, they could not figure out what the Emperor Ming was trying to do.
