One touch and one silence

The young eunuch respectfully repeated what his master had told him.

He knew very well that although this imperial concubine appeared to be kind, they had long heard of her cruelty in private.

How could a concubine who has been favored for so many years and has remained standing in the imperial palace be as kind as she appears to be?

"Who is your master?"

The imperial concubine is not a fool. What kind of place is the Dali Temple? Just because you say a few words, you have to ask her to help get a criminal out?

"My master said that you will know when the time comes!"

After the young eunuch finished speaking, he lowered his head and waited quietly for the imperial concubine's response so that he could go back and report.

The expression on the imperial concubine's face suddenly became a little ugly. The master behind this man wanted to control her without saying anything?

"I think the master behind you is not sincere, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't have said that without any evidence."

Could she suffer a loss? Of course not! In the years since she entered the palace, except for the matter of her first child, she had never suffered a loss from anyone.

"My master has long known that the queen would say this." After saying this, she took out a pair of earrings. The imperial concubine knew which earring it was at a glance.

He stood there in a daze, not saying a word for a long time.

These earrings were exactly the ones the midwife wore on the day she gave birth.

At that time, she was in great pain due to childbirth. The midwife had been talking in front of her. She glanced at her unintentionally, and as soon as she gave birth, the midwife took her child and disappeared.

By the time the news came out, the people were already dead, including her child whom she had never even met.

"Meixiang, go tell your father to get the person out."

Meixiang then stepped forward, took the earring and placed it respectfully in front of the imperial concubine.

"I agree to this!"

"If you dare to lie to me..." The imperial concubine's words were full of murderous intent.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Our master always keeps his word." The young eunuch's eyes were sincere.

"I hope so! Go away!"

Naturally, the imperial concubine had no good temper towards those who threatened her.

After the people left, the imperial concubine's face turned ugly.

When she finds out who is behind this person, then...

There was a flash of murderous intent in the woman's eyes.

A few days later, the prince received the news from Yuan Wuqing.

The nameless person who was sent by the Seventh Prince for the first time escaped.

The prince was so angry that he lost his temper on the spot, searched the whole city, and quickly sent someone to pass a message to Nanzhi.

By the time Nanzhi received the message, Xue Yan had already found out the information he wanted.

He arrived almost at the same time as the prince's news.

When Nanzhi received the news, she was not afraid at first. She remembered that when she rescued her, the person had already fallen into a deep coma. How could she know who sent her in?

But the secret guard's next words broke Nanzhi's defense.

The prince's secret guard said somewhat awkwardly: "Seventh Prince, that person may know that it was you who sent it."

"What the hell?"

"Who said that?"

"This prince wants to see which idiot it is!"

When Nanzhi heard what the secret guard said, he got so angry that he started cursing.

"According to the Crown Prince's inference, since this person is skilled in martial arts, his hearing must be excellent. On the day the Crown Prince went to see him, Lord Yuan mentioned you on the way. I'm afraid..."

Nanzhi's face turned even darker when he heard the secret guard's words.

She is so angry that she wants to hit someone. Wasn’t she killed by someone’s revenge in her previous life?

Suddenly she thought, that's not right, she has Lord Liu Yue by her side now, who never leaves her side. Even if that guy is very powerful, two fists can't beat four hands, right?

She has more than eight hands around her?

"Alright, Your Highness knows about this matter, so tell your brother the Crown Prince not to worry."

After the people left, Nanzhi looked at Liuyue with a flattering expression.

"Master Liu Yue, you will protect me, right?"

Nanzhi raised her head and looked at Liuyue with pitiful eyes. It was not until she nodded that Nanzhi smiled again.

"Master Liuyue, my life and death is in your hands."

"Don't worry, I'll get you some other good wine after a while."

If you want the horse to run and run as hard as it can, but you don't give it enough grass, how can it run as hard as it can?

Life and death are just a matter of a moment.

In the first few days, Nanzhi continued to train himself cautiously.

Don't miss any sign of trouble.

As soon as Xue Yan arrived at the mountain, he found something wrong and thought it was the secret guards surrounding the Seventh Prince.

He knew that every prince and princess had secret guards around them, who were not much worse than them.

He sensed several different auras, so he thought there might be quite a few people there.

Xue Yan disguised himself as an old man, restrained his aura, and dug herbs in the mountains.

After digging for several days, no human figure was found.

It was not until that afternoon that Xue Yan saw from afar a handsome boy about seven or eight years old running happily in the mountains. He was sweating all over and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with his hands.

The sunlight occasionally seeping through the leaves in the woods shines on the boy's face, making him look particularly handsome. His chubby little face is so cute and adorable.

Xue Yan made a prompt decision and lay down immediately, crying out in pain.

Why was Nanzhi happy today? Because he just saw a wild boar chasing a rabbit.

Then the rabbit hit the tree stump and died on the spot. She had learned the idiom "waiting for the rabbit by the tree stump" in her childhood, and she actually saw it in real life.

Can she be unhappy?

The wild boar was also stupid. It didn't brake its hooves and crashed into the tree, fainting on the spot. When the tree broke, it hit the wild boar again.

But Nanzhi liked her so much.

To be honest, she was very curious about why the wild boar chased the rabbit. What on earth had it done to cause one death and one injury?

Oh no! That pig will die when he returns.

Nanzhi told Liuyue to take the wild boar back. Because it was quite big, it took the secret guards around Nanzhi to carry it back together.

Nanzhi carefully instructed Liuyue how to deal with the wild boar.

She doesn't trust others.

What about bloodletting and hair shaving? She only has two more laps to run before going back.

Since they were safe these days, Nanzhi thought that the killer probably didn't hear it, otherwise he would have come long ago. So he asked them to carry the wild boar back together, and then left two to deal with the wild boar according to Nanzhi's method.

Everyone in the capital knows where they are.

It’s been eight days already, if you were going to come, you should have come earlier.

Watching them carry the wild boar weighing about 400 pounds back, and thinking about the delicious food that was about to come into his mouth, Nanzhi was in a very good mood.

Along the way, I happily hummed a song: "Today is a good day, everything I wish for can come true..."

What she didn't know was that the killers were very patient. They would lie in wait, waiting for the opportunity to kill with one strike.

After a while, Nanzhi seemed to hear an old man crying out in pain. Nanzhi originally wanted to ignore it, because she knew that she ended up in this place because she was soft-hearted in her previous life.

Nanzhi, who had already run over, finally softened when she heard the painful groans behind her.

If she left like this today, there would probably be one more corpse in the mountain tomorrow.

In fact, there are many herbal farmers who come to this mountain to collect herbs. Even Doctor Xu often goes up the mountain to collect herbs.

Nanzhi stepped back, walked forward, bent down, and asked with concern. Of course, he was still on guard.

"Grandpa, what happened to you? Can you stand up?" Nanzhi spoke in a childish voice, looking with concern at the place where the old man's hands were covering, where there were traces of blood.

Xue Yan looked at the child in front of him, wondering if she was the seventh prince.

The Seventh Prince is a ten-year-old child, it is impossible for him to be as big as he is now.

Moreover, the clothes this little guy is wearing don’t fit him at all. Is that possible for a prince?

This little guy looks quite good and is a kind child. He is probably one of the other little Taoist priests in the temple.

A prince would definitely not wear such ill-fitting clothes.

Since it is so hard, it is better to take her back and teach her well in Siqing Palace. It is better than letting her suffer here.

Moreover, they have been recruiting people everywhere recently. Since this person has a kind heart, they can train him to take the imperial examination. It will be more convenient for them to have someone in the court in the future.

I have to say that Xue Yan is a very far-sighted guy who thinks things through.

In fact, Xue Yan was overthinking it. Nanzhi was too thin before, and the smaller clothes didn't look ill-fitting on her.
