Chapter 281 Breaking into the Palace at Night
The housekeeper of the Xie Mansion got up to go to the toilet at night, but he was kidnapped before he could even pull up his trousers.
When she opened her eyes again, the night wind was blowing, and the veil of the nobleman in front of her fell down, revealing a handsome face.
"Hey, young master? Why haven't you left yet?" The butler was a little confused.
Xie Yunji's eyes seemed to have been tempered by ten thousand years of ice, and his voice was cold and deep, "I want to know what father asked you to do?"
The butler has always been by Mr. Xie's side, and many shady things are done through his hands.
They have been tied to the Xie family for generations and are loyal to them.
But how to balance the old master and the new master?
The butler of the Xie Mansion didn't dare to look up. He was a born son of the Xie family and grew up in the Xie family. From a child to a teenager, and then to a butler of the mansion, he watched the young man in front of him be born and grow up. In all these years, he had never seen Xie Yunji like this.
Now he has rushed back exhausted, obviously he knows about that incident.
The butler was silent.
Xie Yunji was extremely angry, but he suppressed his anger and asked again: "Say it or not!"
"I, my humble servant, have done things for the Xie family with a clear conscience!" The butler looked at the sword flashing coldly on his neck, "I cannot betray the master!"
"You work for the Xie family, so who am I?" Xie Yunji laughed in anger, staring at him and said, "Sooner or later, I will be the boss of the Xie family. You have to think it over. If I ask you a question and you answer it, it is not betrayal or disloyalty! I ask you again, what did father ask you to do to Madam Mingde?"
"Marquis Anning's Mansion." The housekeeper finally knelt down and kowtowed as he said, "Madam Mingde went to Marquis Anning's Mansion during the day, and the master ordered me to bribe the people in Marquis Anning's Mansion to poison her. By then, the crime will not be related to us, and those people in Marquis Anning's Mansion can be scapegoats..."
Before he could finish his words, Xie Yunji stood up suddenly, his face turned ashen, and even the air seemed to be stagnant.
"The master said that as long as that woman is around, you and the emperor will never give up, and it will sooner or later lead to disaster." The butler continued, "Sir, I hope you..."
"Where is the antidote?" Xie Yunji grabbed his neck with one hand and took a deep breath to calm himself down. "When was the poison administered? What is the poison?"
"No, no antidote." said the butler.
Xie Yunji pursed his thin lips, then suddenly covered his mouth and nose, and then opened his hands, revealing a trace of blood.
Outside the palace.
The palace gate had already been locked.
"Who? Why are you lingering at the palace gate so late at night? Why don't you leave?" said the guard at Shunzhen Gate.
The night was bleak. A person walked out of the faint mist and slowly raised his eyes. There was blood in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I am Xie Yunji and request to see you," he said.
It was clearly early autumn, but he felt bone-chillingly cold, as if every breath he took was accompanied by endless pain. On the way here, many possibilities flashed through his mind. There were imperial physicians in the palace, so if he was poisoned, they would surely be able to treat him in time. Even if there was no antidote, he would surely be able to hold on for a while.
Then, he would use the method that Master Xuanzhu had used on him, using his internal energy to draw the poison from her body to himself, and she would be safe.
There has been no bad news from the palace so far, so she must be fine...
He was concerned about Song Nihuan's safety. No matter how he comforted himself, his heart felt like it was being clenched. Only when he saw that she was safe could he breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's the middle of the night, Lord Xie. The palace gates have been locked. It's only a few hours before court starts. Why don't you wait a little longer?" said the commander guarding the gate.
He couldn't wait a moment.
"I have something important to report. Please pass it on." Xie Yunji said.
"There is no such rule." The commander said, "Thank you, sir, for not making things difficult for us."
Xie Yunji ignored him and strode towards the palace gate.
As soon as the commander gave an order, the soldiers guarding the gate instantly turned into a human wall. The torches gathered together, like a majestic fire dragon in the dark night, surrounding the thin civil official.
In Shunzhen's school, it suddenly became as bright as day.
"Thank you, sir. Are you going to break into the palace at night?" The commander asked calmly, turning back to point at the dark outline of the towering palace wall in the night. "The keys have been removed. His Majesty has gone to bed."
Xie Yunji smiled coldly and turned his gaze towards the direction of Yuxiu Palace. "What if I insist on going in?"
The torch was so bright that it illuminated the madness in the young man's eyes. "I told you, I have something important to see the emperor."
"Oh, so you want to break into the palace? Breaking into the palace at night is a capital crime. Lord Xie, do you know that?" the commander said, his hand on the scabbard.
Hearing this, the sickly official remained expressionless, "Then let's see if you can stop me."
The taut string is finally about to break.
The commander gave the order, raising his hand and then lowering it.
The archers on the palace wall immediately shot arrows. The arrows were originally just to scare him. After all, he was a high-ranking official in the court and was in the limelight. It was true that breaking into the palace was a capital crime, but if he really had some difficulties, they would be the ones who would be punished. It would be better to shoot a few arrows in front of this civil official and make him retreat.
Unexpectedly, no one saw how he made the move, and the arrows that were originally intended to shoot in front of his black boots actually fell into his hands.
He also used his left hand!
Xie Yunji had a cruel smile on his cold face and turned the arrow in his hand, "Should I shoot you first, or... shoot you first?"

Xie Tan looked at Xie Yunji with burning eyes.
He should have left Yunjing by now. What made him ignore the emperor's order and return to Yunjing, and even break into the palace at night?
Xie Yunji tried hard to stand up straight, but still swayed involuntarily.
He understood that the palace guards did not intend to hurt him, but to stop him.
But his purpose was to enter the palace to see her.
No one can stop him.
Swords and knives have no eyes, and injuries are inevitable during the resistance and snatching. He didn't feel any pain from the wound on his waist and abdomen. Any pain was nothing compared to the anxiety at this moment.
"How's she?" Xie Yunji asked, "Is she okay?"
The emperor sitting on the throne suddenly stood up and shouted angrily: "I think you have lost your way and have lived enough! My queen does not need your concern!"
Xie Yunji's face was as pale as paper, completely bloodless, and he seemed to have not heard anything Xie Tan said.
At this moment, there was only one thought circling in his mind: "Where is Song Nihuan? How is she?"
Xie Tan narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on Xie Yunji, staring at him silently, as if he wanted to see some clues from Xie Yunji's expression and reaction.
After this short yet long confrontation, Xie Yunji rushed out of the palace like a madman, recklessly. He staggered, looked panicked, and completely lost his usual calmness and demeanor.
Judging from the direction he was heading, he was heading straight for the deep palace.
The emperor's face darkened when he saw this, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He then shouted loudly, "Stop him!"
Following the emperor's order, the emperor's guards acted quickly and grabbed his arms and shoulders tightly.
There were too many people and he couldn't break free.
At dawn, the faint sunlight penetrated through the vermilion pillars inch by inch and sprinkled on the ground, forming patches of mottled light and shadows.
Xie Tan stood on the jade steps and looked at Xie Yunji coldly.
The light and shadow moved slowly, gradually illuminating the originally dim palace wall, making everything around it clearer.
——Xie Yunji suddenly turned around, knelt on his knees, and knelt straight on the cold and hard ground.
