"His Majesty."

Yi Xiu was slightly stunned, but in an instant, he resumed Ling Ye's usual cold expression, and knelt respectfully in front of Chu Liyuan.

Chu Liyuan glanced at the young man with his head bowed below his eyes, the thick ink color in his eyes was like dark clouds that could not be melted away, as if there would be rainstorm and thunderstorm at any time.

Chu Liyuan pulled a piece of white paper, picked up a pen and wrote the names of several courtiers, and then threw the paper to Yi Xiu, with no expression of joy or anger: "I don't want to see them again within three months."

Yi Xiu stretched out his hand to pick up the paper that fell to the ground, and it listed several admonishers who had been frequently folded up to give admonition recently.

call!That's easy.Yi Xiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he promised that within three months, these ministers would definitely not dare to step out of the house.

"Yes."

Yi Xiu was the same as usual, with a cold voice and concise words, and his figure disappeared from the hall in the blink of an eye.

Chu Liyuan, who stayed in the hall, glanced at Yi Xiu's leaving direction with a treacherous expression, and he always felt that there was something different about him as the hidden guard commander.

******

Three days passed quickly.

During this period, what disturbed the ministers most was the fact that the three admonishing ministers Zhang, Wang and Li could not get sick.

It is said that not only did they push the morning court, but even in the mansion, the three of them were packed tightly from head to toe, and they dared not even go out of the bedroom except for going out.

This... what the hell is going on here? !

The hearts of the ministers were itchy like being scratched by a kitten's paw.

And Chu Liyuan, who found out that these three admonishers even asked for sick leave on behalf of their colleagues, but he didn't show up, felt a little curiosity in his heart.He thought that according to Ling Ye's character, at most, he would cripple the legs of these old fellows so that they could not bother him. Unexpectedly, judging by the situation, it seemed more like poisoning.

"Ling Ye."

Chu Liyuan called out, asking Ling Ye to come out and ask, wouldn't it be clear?

A black shadow leaped out from the hiding place and knelt respectfully in front of the emperor, "Your Majesty, the envoy is on a mission. What orders do you have?"

Chu Liyuan frowned, inexplicably displeased.Ling Ye is the hidden guard who has been with him the longest, and every time, no matter when he speaks, Ling Ye will appear immediately.He also forgot that it was impossible for Ling Ye to be by his side all the time.

He waved his hand and said impatiently: "It's okay, you can go back."

Chu Liyuan glanced at the hidden corner where Ling Ye often lived, and then turned his gaze back to the folder on the case.

……

As the sky gradually darkened, Chu Liyuan had a whim, waved away the waiters around him, and walked towards Xihe Palace alone.

"Dear host, your wound is too light, why don't you cut it twice, so it's more realistic?"

Yi Xiu leaned against the cold rockery, the dagger in his hand was still dripping bright red blood.

Hearing this, Yi Xiu snorted coldly, and pointed to the wound on his left arm where the blood kept gushing out, "Still cutting? I have left a few hundred milliliters of blood, and the heroine didn't even see the shadow. Do you think my blood is too bloody?" Do you want me to play more?"

It's not that Yi Xiu doesn't believe in the system. It's been more than half an hour since he came to the Imperial Garden according to the system's instructions. Except for the occasional mosquitoes, he hasn't even seen a person.

"Oh~~ my dear host, you have to believe me, we are best friends, how could I lie to you! Oops! Host, get ready, the hostess is here!" The system was about to explain, when the hostess was suddenly scanned. The Lord's figure couldn't help swallowing what he wanted to say, and reminded Yi Xiu.

Yi Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and the dagger in his hand was neatly retracted into its sheath.

He lowered his eyes and glanced at the ground, except for a few drops of blood that didn't drip, there was no flaw.

Only then did she feel relieved to hide her body and wait for the heroine to arrive.

blah blah.

A slight sound of footsteps gradually walked in, and a dimly lit lamp swayed slightly with the footsteps of the visitor.

In the candlelight, there was a beautiful and beautiful face, with a delicate and elegant bun and gorgeous palace attire.

It was the heroine of the world, Jiang Wanxi.

Jiang Wanxi approached the rockery, and was about to cross the rockery to return to his Xihe Palace, when he stopped suddenly, his brows furrowed invisibly.

Under the light of the lantern in her hand, there was a little bit of blood left in an inconspicuous place.

Judging from the uncoagulated state of the blood, the person who left the blood must be nearby, and may not have gone far.

There was some hesitation in Jiang Wanxi's eyebrows, the palace was heavily guarded, although it was unlikely, but if she was really an assassin, wouldn't she just die if she took the initiative to go there?

Hiss!

On the other side of the rockery, Yi Xiu looked at the scratched sleeves and was slightly stunned. Does this seem to be different from the script?

"Who's in there? Come out." Jiang Wanxi's expression changed, and he took two steps back.It can't really be an assassin.

"Come here! Ugh!" Jiang Wanxi was about to call for someone, only to find that a black shadow flashed in front of her eyes, and a cold palm was attached to her mouth, blocking her unfinished words.

"Host, I'll give you the lines, read according to the lines!" The system's tone rose slightly, and it was quite excited to pass the lines in the plot to Yi Xiu.

A trace of nervousness flashed in Jiang Wanxi's eyes, but in the next second, a slightly hoarse and cold voice rang in her ears.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'm not an assassin. If you disturbed your Majesty, I'll leave now." Yi Xiu smelled the scent of incense coming from Jiang Wanxi's body, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes. He was never used to the smell of spices.

After saying that, Yi Xiu let go of Jiang Wanxi's hand, without looking at Jiang Wanxi, turned around indifferently, and was about to leave.

In the original plot, Ling Ye appeared in front of the heroine uncharacteristically because he was afraid of disturbing the emperor.

Jiang Wanxi was taken aback for a moment, but then, the blood stained on her clothes quickly brought her back to her senses, she turned around and called Yi Xiu: "Wait, are you injured?"

Yi Xiu's footsteps did not stop, and he said indifferently: "It's just a small injury, don't bother me to worry about it, it's getting late, it's better for you to return to the palace as soon as possible."

Maybe Chu Liyuan has already arrived at Xihe Palace, Yi Xiu made a secret.In the original plot, after the heroine returned to the palace, Chu Liyuan, who had gone to Xihe Palace in advance, was suspicious because of the blood on her clothes.

Jiang Wanxi's heart moved, she suddenly wanted to see the real face of this person, "If you take another step, I'll call you an assassin."

Yi Xiu stopped in his tracks without turning around, but his tone became even colder: "What happened today was just an accident, what does your mother think?"

Jiang Wanxi decided that Yi Xiu didn't dare to do anything to her, so he called her a lady, which showed that Yi Xiu probably belonged to the palace.

Walking a few steps in front of Yi Xiu, Jiang Wanxi said briskly, "I don't want to do anything? You know me? Then you are a guard in the palace? The guards are not allowed to stay in the palace overnight, you can't be... "

Seeing that Yi Xiu's breath became cold again, Jiang Wanxi covered his mouth and looked at him innocently.

Yi Xiu secretly said: "System, the plot is wrong? What should I do?"

"It's okay, my dear host, the hostess already has a crush on you. You should quickly find a way to withdraw, the plot of the hostess is about to begin." The system focused on the manga in its hand, and heard Yi Xiu's inquiry , waved his hand indifferently, and said casually.

Yi Xiu: "..." After a few seconds of silence, Yi Xiu said coldly: "I'm not." After saying that, regardless of the heroine, he performed lightness kung fu and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Wanxi stared at the direction where Yi Xiu left, covered the curiosity in his eyes, and walked gracefully towards Xihe Palace.

After a few seconds.

Chu Liyuan's tall figure stepped out from behind the rockery, looking at the direction Yi Xiu left with an unpredictable expression.
