He conspired against her in his previous life, and he flirted with her on their wedding night again

Prince Ling had just told the Emperor that Prince Cheng was secretly colluding with Xiliang, when the Xiliang assassins took Prince Cheng hostage and took him out of the city...

This practice was so blatant that it fooled the emperor.

What kind of place is Prince Cheng's Mansion? A few assassins broke in easily and captured Prince Cheng. Are the guards in Prince Cheng's Mansion just good-for-nothings?

Looking at the emperor's gloomy face, Eunuch Yuan didn't know what to say.

Except for a few people, no one knew about the affair between Prince Cheng and Queen Song.

King Cheng's crimes have not been announced to the world. He is still the current emperor's biological brother. He was held hostage by the assassins from Western Liang, and no one dared to take his life or death lightly, not even the Prince of Yanping and his men.

Du Chengxu's death caused the Prince of Yanping to suffer a lot. Prince Cheng was the Queen Mother's biological son, so the Prince of Yanping and his men were even more cautious.

But Lu Cheng almost died at the hands of the Xiliang assassin, so they couldn't just watch King Cheng help the Xiliang assassin escape.

The Prince of Yanping and his men did not dare to take action, but were unwilling to let them go, and the two sides were in a stalemate.

Xie Jingyan turned around to leave, but after taking two steps, he remembered that he had something else to say. This was why Shen Wan pushed him into the palace and why he came without even having breakfast.

Xie Jingyan turned around and looked at the emperor, saying, "I don't care about the others, but I'll save the queen's life first."

After saying this, Xie Jingyan left in a hurry.

Looking at Xie Jingyan's leaving back, the emperor's brows were furrowed into a shape of a "川" (a line). Even after the person left the bedroom, he did not retract his gaze.

Eunuch Yuan called out softly, "Your Majesty...?"

The emperor looked at him and asked, "How do you want me to reward you?"

puff.

Eunuch Yuan's knees softened, and he knelt down. "I have deceived the emperor and have committed a capital crime. If the emperor can spare my life, I will be satisfied. How dare I ask for a reward..."

Xiao Xizi was also in the bedroom. When Eunuch Yuan knelt down, he quickly followed suit.

The emperor said, "Get up, I don't mean to blame you."

Not to mention that he doesn't know it now, even if he knew it that day, he wouldn't blame him.

Xiao Xizi stood up and helped Eunuch Yuan up.

Poor Eunuch Yuan had just stood up when the Emperor asked again, "Is there anything else you are hiding from me?"

puff.

Eunuch Yuan knelt down again and expressed his loyalty repeatedly, "No, I didn't dare to tell the emperor because I was afraid that the queen would bear a grudge against me and Xiao Xizi to silence us. As for other things, as long as I know them, I will never hide a word from you, the emperor."

"Okay, get up."

His knees hit twice, and even with Xiao Xizi's support, Eunuch Yuan still had difficulty standing up.

Shen Wan was pregnant with the emperor's eldest grandson. Xiao Xizi changed the medicine and saved the life of the emperor's eldest grandson. The emperor would definitely reward him, and it would be a generous reward.

Little Xizi was confused and didn't know why the emperor rewarded him, but he was so happy to receive such a generous reward that he couldn't stop smiling.

Shoukang Palace.

The Queen Mother also did not sleep a wink last night.

When I woke up in the morning, I felt dizzy and had a splitting headache.

He looked haggard, as if he had aged ten years overnight. Even Aunt Zhao felt distressed when she saw him.

Nanny Zhao helped the empress dowager to lean back on the large pillow and said, "Shall I summon the imperial physician for you, empress dowager?"

The Queen Mother lowered her eyes and said, "The Imperial Physician cannot cure my illness..."

Before she could finish her words, the Queen Mother started coughing.

Just as he couldn't stop coughing, a palace maid came in quickly and said, "Queen Mother, it's bad! The Xiliang assassins have kidnapped King Cheng in order to leave the city..."

The Queen Mother's face changed and she coughed even more violently.

Aunt Zhao hurried to help the Queen Mother calm down, but the Queen Mother was too busy to care, "Quick, go find the Emperor. I don't care how he deals with King Cheng, but I will never let him die at the hands of the Xiliang assassin!"

Nanny Zhao was pushed up by the Queen Mother.

Nanny Zhao had something to say but she didn't dare to say it.

Can the Queen Mother really do whatever the Emperor does to the King?

Even she doesn't believe it, let alone the emperor.

Prince Cheng and the Queen had an affair and the Queen was pregnant. It is impossible for the Emperor and Prince Cheng to have a good relationship. If the Queen Mother still wants to protect Prince Cheng, it will only make the Emperor feel bad.

The Emperor is angry, and the Queen Mother is still afraid that the Xiliang assassin will hurt King Cheng. Isn't this like stabbing the Emperor in the heart with a knife?

But she dared not disobey the Queen Mother's order, so Nanny Zhao had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to Hanyuan Palace.

However, when she arrived at Hanyuan Hall, Nanny Zhao realized that her worries were unnecessary because she couldn't enter Hanyuan Hall at all.

The emperor refused to see her, and Eunuch Yuan also stopped her from entering.

The Queen Mother's words never reached the Emperor's ears.

As for Xie Jingyan, he walked out of Hanyuan Hall and rode his horse directly out of the palace.

The Prince of Yanping and the others all knew that the Western Liang assassin and King Cheng were secretly colluding and would not really kill King Cheng. So even though King Cheng's neck was cut by the Western Liang assassin's knife and blood was flowing, the Prince of Yanping and the others did not retreat much. By the time Xie Jingyan received the news and left the palace, they arrived, the Western Liang assassin and King Cheng had not been able to leave the city either.

Seeing Xie Jingyan riding over, the Xiliang assassin grabbed King Cheng and faced Xie Jingyan. Xie Jingyan glanced at King Cheng's face and rode forward.

When the Prince of Yanping saw Xie Jingyan, he said, "You are finally here."

If he doesn't come again, he really won't be able to hold on anymore.

Although they knew that the Xiliang assassin would not really kill King Cheng, others did not know that they simply did not take King Cheng's life or death seriously.

Xie Jingyan said, "Let them go."

Prince Yeonpyeong's eyes widened, thinking he had misheard, "Are you sure you want to let them go?"

Xie Jingyan said, "If the Xiliang assassin is pushed into a corner and King Cheng is seriously injured, no one will be able to explain to the Queen Mother."

"But……"

The Prince of Yanping was somewhat unwilling.

Lu Cheng shook his head at him.

The Prince of Yanping said nothing more.

I should have let them go earlier. Why did they try to stop them for so long?

Xie Jingyan looked at the assassin from Xiliang, "I, King Ling, always keep my word. Once you leave the city gate, if you release King Cheng, no one will chase you. You can return to Xiliang unscathed. If you dare not release him..."

The Xiliang assassin laughed, "The King is in my hands, what dare you do to us?"

Xie Jingyan curled his lips and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try it."

The Xiliang assassin looked at Xie Jingyan and saw that he didn't seem to be worried about King Cheng's life or death, so he knew that King Cheng's life could not threaten him.

The Xiliang assassin said no more nonsense and immediately mounted his horse.

The Prince of Yanping waved his hand, and the people from the City Patrol who were blocking the Xiliang assassin's way made way. The Xiliang assassin took the King Cheng and ran straight out of the city.

The Xiliang assassin ran very fast, and Xie Jingyan jumped on his horse and chased after him.

The Prince of Yanping and Tang Ze also mounted their horses and followed Xie Jingyan.

They still didn't believe that Xie Jingyan would let the Xiliang assassin leave.

It was also because of their poor performance that the assassin escaped into Prince Cheng's mansion, giving Prince Cheng the opportunity to help the Xiliang assassin escape.

After leaving the city, the Xiliang assassins did not release King Cheng, so Xie Jingyan and the Prince of Yanping pursued him relentlessly, and the Prince of Maoguo was also there.

After running all the way, the Xiliang assassin led King Cheng away from the official road and took a small path.

The sight of that little Taoist made Xie Jingyan’s eyes narrow.

He stretched out his hand to Du Chengan, "Give me the bow and arrow."

Du Cheng'an didn't think much and threw the bow and arrow to Xie Jingyan.

Xie Jingyan caught the arrow and aimed at the assassin.

Whoosh.

Arrows streaked across the sky.

It shot right at the assassin's heart.

Seeing this scene——

Du Cheng'an and the Prince of Yanping were all stunned.

King Cheng and the assassin rode on the same horse.

This arrow will kill the assassin and will also injure the king.

Didn’t you say that if the assassin really hurt King Cheng, you wouldn’t be able to explain to the Queen Mother?

How did he hurt himself?

Du Cheng'an's bow and arrow was given by the emperor and has a very long range.

Xie Jingyan's arrow pierced through the assassin and directly injured King Cheng.

The moment the horse was hit by the arrow, it fell to the ground, throwing the assassin and King Cheng off.

There is a cliff a few steps away.

The assassin rolled over and over with King Cheng twice, and they were about to roll off the cliff.

Xie Jingyan grabbed King Cheng's hand, and the Xiliang assassin fell down. The arrow pierced his heart and was stained red with blood.

The Prince of Yanping and his men were extremely confused.

What on earth is Prince Ling doing?

With that arrow shot by him, King Cheng would have been killed for sure, but he held King Cheng back to prevent him from falling off the cliff.

Is this to leave King Cheng’s body intact?
