I felt flustered and immediately entered the palace with Qin Che.

I know Ling Hengyuan is good at martial arts, but I don't know how strong he is. What if the person who assassinated him had better martial arts skills than him?

Taking all precautions, they forgot that Ling Hengyuan was actually their main target.

Qin Che saw my anxiety and comforted me: "Your Majesty, everything should be fine."

I hummed back to him. Just thinking about that scene, when his little figure was crying in the heavy snow, and he was the only one left...and thinking that he was assassinated now, and it was only him, made me feel heart-wrenching pain.

When we arrived at the palace, the atmosphere was very tense. A crowd of people gathered in the Qinzheng Hall, including the imperial doctors, eunuchs and maids, all in a hurry.

When Xiao Dezi saw that we were coming, he bowed hurriedly and then took us into the inner room of Qinzheng Hall.

I vaguely saw Ling Hengyuan leaning against the bedside, and the imperial doctor next to him was bandaging him.

Sure enough, he was still injured.

Qin Che and I: "See Your Majesty."

Ling Hengyuan said weakly: "Get up."

I asked the imperial doctor: "How is your Majesty's injury?"

Ling Hengyuan was injured on his arm. The imperial doctor had already changed the medicine and bandaged him, and said, "There is no need to worry, Your Majesty. Your Majesty's injury only hurt the flesh and there is no toxin. I think it will be cured in a few days."

I'm relieved, it's just a minor injury.

Ling Hengyuan said: "Everyone, please retreat. Qin General Chen Ceshi will stay."

When there were only three of us left in the inner room, Ling Hengyuan said: "I have sent the assassin to the prison. Qin Che, please investigate this matter."

Qin Che said: "Yes. Does your Majesty have any clues?"

Ling Hengyuan rubbed the center of his brow with his uninjured hand and said: "The Jianghu technique is deadly with a knife, but...he destroyed the textile machine."

I was surprised, Daodao Fatal came for Ling Hengyuan, but why did he destroy the textile machine? Working two jobs for one person?

Qin Che said: "Could it be Beiyin?"

Ling Hengyuan: "Bei Yin is coming to visit soon, so I won't do this at this juncture."

I said blankly: "Beiyin is visiting? When?"

Ling Hengyuan looked at Qin Che in confusion: "You didn't tell her?"

Qin Che said: "I took Ah Ji to recover from his injuries a few days ago, but I have been busy and forgotten recently."

These people have been busy with things I don't know about recently. I think Beiyin is coming to visit. It's a big deal.

Ling Hengyuan said helplessly: "I will come next month. I have been busy with this matter recently, but I have neglected to be vigilant."

I muttered. A few days ago, I was told to be careful, but now it’s better to take care of it myself.

Ling Hengyuan: "What?"

I said: "Wei Chen said, your majesty should pay more attention to the dragon body. Winter will come at the end of the month, and next month you will have to deal with Beiyin. It will be even more tiring to think about it."

Ling Hengyuan nodded, maybe it was the assassination that confused him, and he ignored my incoherent remarks.

Being able to evade the guards of the Royal Guards, and being guarded by the palace guards, he came to the Qinzheng Hall, and then got close to him quietly. His martial arts was so strong that he could kill people and destroy weapons. Ling Hengyuan might not be able to figure out where he came from.

Ling Hengyuan said coldly: "There is a spy."

Qin Che and I looked sternly, and after thinking about it in our minds, this was indeed the only possibility.

Textile looms have not yet been launched, and only a few people know about it. However, it is probably the only possibility to destroy the textile loom placed in Qinzheng Palace without any hesitation and accurately.

I asked: "Does your Majesty have any doubts?"

Ling Hengyuan shook his head and said: "I have already sent people from the Craftsmanship Department to monitor them, and there is nothing abnormal. Except for you, I think that with your brain, you can't think of such an assassination method."

I rely on my poor brain to clear away the suspicion: "..."

Ling Hengyuan continued: "I will send someone to check the others."

I thought of something and said: "But Weichen feels that the people behind this are not necessarily very smart. If they destroy the machine, they can make a second one. Weichen has already recorded the production method in a book, and he will choose another day." Another one can be made quickly.”

Qin Che and Ling Hengyuan's expressions suddenly became solemn after hearing my words.

I wondered: "What's wrong? Did Wei Chen say something wrong?"

Ling Hengyuan: "You're right, you said it very well. It can be seen that smashing the textile machine was a pretense, and the real target is me."

I was horrified that he was so scheming.

I wiped away the non-existent sweat. Sure enough, I am still not suitable for this kind of open and covert struggle. It is really taxing. After exploring it for so long, I finally told me that I was going in the wrong direction.

The three of them discussed the assassination for a while. I vaguely saw Ling Hengyuan rubbing his eyebrows. I guess he was busy with work and frightened, and he had a migraine.

I said: "Your Majesty, please rub it for you."

Ling Hengyuan nodded.

The next moment, there was a pair of hands that were faster than me. Qin Che put his hands on Ling Hengyuan's temples and said, "I'm still injured. It's such a small thing, but it will happen in the future."

Me: "..." The picture is too beautiful, I dare not look at it.

After rubbing it for a while, Ling Hengyuan said impatiently: "Back off, I have an even bigger headache."

I saw Qin Che glance at me intentionally or unintentionally, and I acted as if nothing had happened.

When we returned home, he caught me and said, "I have to be careful with men."

I said: "Is Archer talking about His Majesty? But His Majesty and I only have a relationship between monarch and minister."

Qin Che said seriously: "That's not possible."

I agreed in a muffled voice, since he wasn't always here anyway.

The textile machine was destroyed, but the Craftsmanship Department continued processing. It was rushed out in one day and sent to Qinzheng Hall overnight.

Let’s give this hot potato to Ling Hengyuan. He is lucky and I am not lucky.

Ling Hengyuan gave me a short vacation for fear of more things happening.

While I was enjoying my vacation, the princess also came to chat with me. She brought me a curtain hat and prepared to take me out.

Stopped by Erchi at the door, he begged: "Princess! Don't embarrass the young one. The general won't let you go out. The old man's eye injury is not healed. What will happen if something happens again? The young one has ten heads." Not enough for the general to kill."

It seems that Qin Che specially told me that if he is not here, I cannot leave the house at will.

I thought about forgetting it, but I felt itchy in my heart. I haven’t had a good tour of Nanyang Capital yet.

The princess said arrogantly: "This princess has brought all the servants and guards of the princess' mansion. Can't Qin Che let Yue Ji out?"

Looking at the battle ahead, I couldn't help but be surprised. This was too grandstanding.

I grabbed the princess and said to Erchi: "Send someone to report to the general that I will only be out for two hours."

Erchi hesitated for a moment, then immediately asked someone to pass the message.

The princess said impatiently: "Qin Che has been like this for many years, and he will never change his nature."

The corners of my mouth twitched at the side. Only the princess had the guts to talk about the current Nanyang general who governs the country.

Thinking of the princess's persistence today, I asked in confusion: "Why did the princess insist on taking the humble minister out of the palace today?"

The princess asked: "Did you know that the Longevity Festival is coming soon?"

I was confused: "Wanshou Festival? The Holy Father's birthday?"

The princess looked as if this was indeed the case and said: "I know that you don't know."
