As night falls, the prosperity of Yong'an City during the day gradually settles down. Only the occasional sound of drums and the barking of dogs in the distance remind people of the arrival of night.

However, on such a night, an undercurrent of competition is about to take place.

Zhang Biyun's men, a group of women dressed in night clothes, quietly came to the prison. The sharp blades in their hands shone coldly in the moonlight, and they were obviously preparing for a big fight.

However, their actions did not escape the gaze of another pair of eyes. The second princess's secret guard has been secretly monitoring the Yamen's movements.

When Zhang Biyun's men began to move to the prison, the second princess's secret guards quickly attacked. For a time, the sword energy was everywhere and the confrontation was fierce. Although there was only one secret guard, she clearly had the upper hand. She acted decisively and used ruthless moves, and soon forced Zhang Biyun's men into a difficult situation.

Zhang Biyun's men thought that the Taifu ordered people to intercept him here. Although they were unwilling to do so, they also knew that they couldn't do anything. The plan had been leaked and they had no choice but to escape first.

A sharp light flashed in the dark guard's eyes. She didn't know if these people also knew some of the secrets of Zhang Biyun's work for the emperor's husband.

So, he decisively decided to kill and silence him.

The secret guard immediately took action, pointing his sword at Zhang Biyun's men. However, at this moment, a black shadow suddenly fell from the sky. The person who came was as fast as lightning and appeared in the center of the battlefield in an instant.

The black shadow held a dagger with a faint light in his hand, staring coldly at the second princess's secret guard. His appearance put unprecedented pressure on the originally dominant secret guards.

Who is this black shadow? Why did he want to save Zhang Biyun's men? For a time, the situation on the field became confusing.

The appearance of the mysterious man attracted the attention of everyone present. Zhang Biyun's men looked at him in surprise, their eyes full of gratitude and confusion; the second princess's secret guards looked wary and hostile.

The mysterious man fought with the second princess's secret guard. Her movements are as fast as lightning, and her movements are strange and changeable.

For a moment, the battlefield was filled with flashes of swords and waves of air. Although the second princess's secret guards are highly skilled, they also feel unprecedented pressure when facing such a powerful opponent.

The mysterious man didn't seem to be in a hurry to win, and he dealt with the attacks of the secret guards with ease.

Whenever the secret guard's sword was about to touch his body, she could always avert danger with astonishing reaction speed.

Her movement is dazzling, as if she is integrated with heaven and earth, and no attack can touch his essence.

During the battle, the mysterious man observed Zhang Biyun's men with his peripheral vision from time to time.

There was a hint of concern and vigilance in her eyes, as if she didn't want them to be harmed in any way.

This behavior made Zhang Biyun's men even more puzzled: What is the identity of this mysterious man? Why did she want to save them?

At the same time, the second princess's secret guards also realized the seriousness of the situation. If this mysterious man is not subdued as soon as possible, the emperor's husband will not be able to complete his mission.

So she tried her best to defeat her opponent in one fell swoop.

However, the mysterious man's strength seems unfathomable. No matter how the secret guard attacks, she can always save the day and counterattack.

Her attacks were ruthless and precise, and every blow made the secret guards feel an unprecedented threat.

As time went by, the second princess's secret guards gradually began to be at a disadvantage. Her offense became more and more messy, and her defense also showed holes.

The mysterious man became more and more courageous as he fought, and every move he made was full of strength and confidence.

Finally, after a fierce battle, the mysterious man successfully defeated the second princess's secret guard.

She turned around and faced Zhang Biyun's stunned men. There was a faint smile on her face, and there was a hint of depth in her eyes.

"Are you okay?" The mysterious man's voice was gentle and powerful, which made people feel an inexplicable comfort.

Zhang Biyun's men were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect this mysterious man to defeat the second princess's secret guard.

A pawn said, "Thank you hero for saving your life. Unfortunately, our plan failed. The man's martial arts just now was excellent, and the hero's martial arts is even better."

After she said this, everyone was dejected. It seemed that the government had planned to arrest them for a long time. In this case, the masked man just came to remind them.

But if they were really reminded, how could they be so ruthless? If they were from the government, how could there be only one person?

"Hmph, look at that person's martial arts skills just now. I barely managed to defeat her. You wanted to save people, but you almost fell into the trap of the government. An ambush has been set up in the prison. When you get in, you will be killed in one fell swoop." Mysterious. She said coldly that she really didn't understand why the royal husband gave her a secret order to secretly rescue Zhang Biyun.

She was almost fooled. Zhang Biyun was not locked up here at all. This was the prefect's plan to wipe out all her accomplices.

"Hero, I don't know what to call you." A pawn said carefully.

The mysterious man took out a token, and the group of people all knelt down, "The benefactor turned out to be the wife of the emperor. Thank you for your help."

"It doesn't matter who I am, as long as you remember the kindness of the royal husband. If you have a chance to talk to your boss, please leave." The mysterious man put away the token, jumped up, and climbed to the roof. , rushing away in the night.

This scene happened to be watched by Bai Shuang. It seemed that the eldest princess and the second princess had started to take action. The emperor's health was getting worse day by day, and they could not sit still.

Yong'an City is an important gateway to the capital. Everyone knows that with Yong'an City in hand, half of the imperial power is gained. Therefore, in the small Yong'an City, various forces have planted various spies.

She quickly conveyed this important news to the Ninth Prince in the capital. Even if the Sixteenth Princess did not fight for the throne, she still had to find the right team. The consequences of standing in the wrong team were very serious.

The palace is really the most unsafe place, and being born in the palace is also a misfortune.

The sky gradually turned white, but the government officials who had set up an ambush in the prison all night still failed to catch Zhang Biyun's men.

Lord An, the prefect, was a little discouraged and couldn't help but sigh, "This Doctor Jiang is just a doctor after all. How could I listen to her words? Yesterday, all the government officials were setting up an ambush. As a result, they worked all night in vain. No one came to court today." "

Ambassador Su advised from the side, "Mr. An, I heard that there was a fight between two forces outside the prison yesterday. Maybe they came to rob the prison, but they were stopped halfway."

The prefect frowned, "Oh? So, this plan has been disrupted. Someone, call Jiang Qingchen."

After a while, Jiang Qingchen was brought over. The prefect looked at her with a somewhat displeased tone, "Doctor Jiang, why has there been no news about what you said yesterday?"

Jiang Qingchen sneered in his heart, this governor really knows how to shirk responsibility.

She said calmly, "Sir, I am just suggesting, but of the two forces last night, I guess one is the second princess, and the other is the royal husband."

The eunuch snorted, "So, the second princess wants to save Zhang Biyun, but the main emperor wants to kill her?"

Jiang Qingchen was disdainful, but still kept a smile on his face, "I think it's just the opposite. The second princess wants to kill her to silence her, and the princess wants to save her."

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, "Zhang Biyun belongs to the second princess. She wants to steal the scar ointment that the royal husband is looking for. Why does the eldest princess want to save her?"

Jiang Qingchen smiled and said, "Sir, I am just a doctor, not your subordinate. In fact, I, a civilian, should not be involved in these things, so I'd better leave first."

The prefect was so angry at Jiang Qingchen's words that he was livid, but there was nothing he could do against Jiang Qingchen.

After all, Jiang Qingchen was right, she was just a doctor. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, but first tell me why the eldest princess wanted to save Zhang Biyun.

"Mr. An, Zhang Biyun is the nephew of the emperor's husband. She has committed a crime. Someone who is interested can think of a way to implicate the emperor's husband in the palace. Moreover, she has been working for the emperor's husband and the second princess, and has a lot of control over them. Secret. Think about the stakes." Jiang Qingchen said softly.

Should the prefect still ask her about such an obvious thing? How can this prefect be worthy of being appointed?

"Doctor Jiang, you are absolutely right. Your medical skills are so good, why not just become a doctor in this mansion and never go back again." The prefect said with a smile.
