Chapter 38: Visitors on Chinese New Year's Eve


Seeing that Sikong Zhanbai did not move, Ye Shunan said: "Don't worry, I can handle it.

Their target is the emperor, not me.

If something happens to the emperor today, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Go quickly."

If Sikong Qianrong dies at this time, the Haoze Kingdom will inevitably fall into chaos in the future.

Sikong Qianrong will have no heirs, and the struggle for the throne will resume.

At this time, the border situation is tense, and war may start at any time.

Who will suffer by then?

I'm afraid that it's not just Yuezhao for one country, Haoze may also be divided by the other two countries.

How could Sikong Zhanbai not think of this level: "The father has passed, but you" let her alone, how could he rest assured?

"How can King Dan handle this alone?

Go quickly."

Seeing that the jade steps were stained with blood, the guards around Sikong Qianrong were already tired of coping.

Sikong Zhan's white eyes changed.

It was like a vast sea.

"Then be careful."

Ye Shunan nodded, "Go quickly."

Sikong Zhanbai glanced at Ye Shunan before jumping up to the jade steps.

Sikong Qianrong looked at Sikong Zhanbai who was already standing next to him and said in shock: "Why are you here and who will protect Shu Nan?"

In desperation, Sikong Qianrong actually called Ye Shunan's name directly.

After hearing what he said, Yao Sixue, who was also panicking, immediately forgot about her panic and stared straight at Sikong Qianrong.

At this time, he was still thinking about that woman, and those assassins were all here for him.

Sikong Zhanbai was concentrating on dealing with the assassin in front of him and did not respond to Sikong Qianrong's words.

There were three women surrounding him, all holding fish-intestinal soft swords in their hands, and their moves were aimed at Sikong Qianrong on the throne with fierce wind.

The soft sword had a soft body but was extremely sharp.

It was as if it had been practiced for a long time in the hands of the three women, and it was as flexible as a loach in the palm of its hand.

No wonder these guards could not cope with it.

The three women knew that they could not defeat Sikong Zhanbai, so they only fought hard and attacked so intensively that Sikong Zhanbai had no time to spare.

Sikong Zhanbai was anxious, but he could not see what was going on with Ye Shunan.

All he could hear was the sound of the flute with murderous intent.

Suddenly, he was shocked, why did the sound of the flute suddenly turn into the sound of a piano?

He wanted to take a closer look, but he was becoming more entangled with the three women in front of him, and his sight was completely blocked.

It was only then that Sikong Zhanbai realized that something was wrong.

These three women seemed to be here specifically to deal with him.

They deliberately pestered him to make him unable to escape.

But what is their purpose for doing this?

Isn't their goal the emperor?

Why are they always entangled with themselves?

Oh no!

Sikong Zhanbai was suddenly startled, and his movements paused.

One of the women took advantage of Sikong Zhanbai's brief avatar to cut a wound on his arm.

Sikong Zhanbai came back to his senses, with blazing anger in his eyes.

Their goal was Shu'er to assassinate the emperor, just to distract him so that they could attack Shu'er.

How could he be so stupid and leave Shu'er alone?

Where are the people?

In anger, Sikong Zhanbai became more and more fierce, and the murderous aura in his body made everyone close to him feel terrified.

However, these three women seemed to be very familiar with his martial arts methods.

They did not want to confront him head-on, but only tried to entangle him.

Moreover, they were extremely flexible and trapped Sikong Zhanbai while dodging.

The hall was full of swords and swords, but Ye Shunan was seen sitting in the palace's original position as the piano master, plucking the strings with his slender fingers, and the rapid sound of the piano was like sharp blades piercing the people who besieged him.

Ye Shunan also did not expect that these assassins would suddenly change their targets to him.

After all, the sound of the flute was not as lethal as the sound of the piano.

Fortunately, when they were dancing just now, there were musicians playing the piano next to them.

Now they can use it as their own weapons.

Although it is not Not very handy, but enough.

Those assassins did not expect that Ye Shunan could actually use the sound attack technique.

When they first heard the sound of the flute, they were already very surprised.

They only heard the sound of the flute like a life-threatening sound, turning into an invisible sharp blade and stabbing them.

Come.

This sudden situation caught these assassins off guard.

These assassins reacted very quickly and quickly continued to attack Ye Shunan.

At this time, the sound of the piano was even louder than the sound of the flute just now, and the oncoming murderous aura fell on them like a torrential rain.

At this time, these assassins had already received several scars on their bodies from Ye Shunan's music, but this aroused their fighting spirit even more, and they joined forces to attack Ye Shunan.

Ye Shunan did not dare to slack off at all.

The last time she dealt with Su Yanpu, although she also used the sound attack technique, after all, it was just a few of them who dealt with Su Yanpu.

But the current situation is that she must Dealing with several assassins at the same time, Ye Shunan's fingers kept moving, and fine beads of sweat already appeared on his forehead.

And soon, the imperial guards in the palace heard the sound and rushed over.

They poured into the hall one after another with spears and shields in hand.

Facing these many imperial guards, the fighting skills of these assassins were no longer effective, and they soon...

He was captured by the Imperial Guards.

After getting rid of the entanglement of the three assassins, Sikong Zhanbai was able to escape and quickly jumped to Ye Shunan's side.

Holding the long sword he had snatched from the guard in his hand, he had already pierced the heart of one of the assassins.

"Are you okay?"

Sikong Zhanbai stood beside Ye Shunan and asked in a deep voice.

Ye Shunan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and whispered back: "I'm fine."

But her palms were already cold.

The situation just now was indeed very dangerous.

If she relaxed a little, they could take advantage of it and catch her.

I'm afraid I've already gone to see the King of Hell.

With Sikong Zhanbai by her side, Ye Shunan stopped playing the piano in her hands.

Her fingers were already trembling a little.

Sikong Zhanbai looked at the assassins who were still attacking here, and his eyes became even more angry.

They actually used such a move to deal with Shu Er.

They thought they were going to hit Shu Er with one hit, but they underestimated Shu Er.

Sikong Zhanbai moved his wrist slightly, shaking off the still warm blood drops on the sword, looking at the assassins murderously, and slashed in the air, like the force of an army, straight towards the faces of the assassins.

With the arrival of the Imperial Guards, the assassins in the hall were quickly controlled.

In order to prevent them from committing suicide, the Imperial Guards had stuffed their mouths with cloth strips and kept them under strict guard.

The situation was under control, but they saw that the hall was in a mess, wine glasses and dishes were scattered on the floor, and the originally shiny stone slab was now stained with blood.

The ministers who had crawled under the table finally emerged from under the table, and sat in their seats one by one, breathing heavily to calm their still-beating hearts.

Sikong Qianrong glanced at Ye Shunan, who was sitting there safe and sound, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Fortunately, she was fine.

Fortunately, she was okay.

"Who sent you here?"

Sikong Qianrong, who was sitting on the throne, had already regained the calmness and majesty that an emperor should have.

His eyes were like black jade, staring straight at the assassin who was being escorted by the imperial guards, and said coldly. asked.

And these assassins are obviously dead soldiers.

It is not easy to ask things from the mouths of dead soldiers.

In the end, Sikong Qianrong couldn't ask anything, so he could only hand it over to the imperial guards for slow interrogation.

But it was obvious that they wanted to kill themselves at first, but why did they suddenly change their target midway and attack Ye Shunan instead?

Was this their plan?

The initial attack on them was just a pretense to lure Sikong away.

Zhan Bai, so as to complete their plan to assassinate Ye Shunan But if their target was Ye Shunan from the beginning, then they didn't have to assassinate him in the palace.

Wouldn't it be better to do it outside the palace?

There wouldn't be a large number of imperial guards pouring in.

Maybe they could succeed.

No matter how you think about it, it feels a little strange.

"Your Majesty, please marry these assassins to me for interrogation."

Sikong Zhanbai cupped his fists towards Sikong Qianrong who was on the jade steps.

"Okay, let's leave it to the Crown Prince for interrogation."

Since Sikong Zhanbai has already spoken, it is natural for him to interrogate him.

With Ye Shunan at his level, I think even if he can skin these assassins, Sikong Zhanbai They will also pry out from their mouths who is the mastermind behind the scenes.

A wonderful New Year's Eve palace banquet ended in such an embarrassing way.

Everyone left the palace in shock, got on the carriage and galloped home.

His Royal Highness King Dududan seemed to have just watched a good show, with a smile on his face, "Shu'er, I didn't expect you to attack people with your music.

This king is really eye-opening today.

What on earth did you do?"

"I can do it."

Regarding the art of sound control, King Dan knew a little bit about it, but when it came to sound attack, he didn't understand it at all.

Today, I saw Ye Shunan in the main hall.

He was able to repel the assassins and leave scars on their bodies just by sitting there.

This aroused great interest in King Dan.

Before Ye Shunan could speak, Sikong Zhanbai had already said: "Okay, Shu'er is tired after the scene just now.

If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later."

King Dan smiled understandingly, raised his hand and patted his son's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, you can send Shu'er back to Qingchen Garden.

I'll go back to the palace first."

Then he whispered in Sikong Zhanbai's ear. : "Shu'er must have been frightened today.

Please comfort her.

If you can, don't come back tonight."

After saying that, His Highness Prince Dan got on the carriage and left calmly, leaving Sikong Zhanbai and Ye Shunan standing opposite each other in the cold wind.

Sikong Zhanbai put his arms around Ye Shunan's slender waist and carried her into the carriage.

On the carriage, Sikong Zhanbai gently held Ye Shunan's hands and asked softly: "Are you scared just now?"

His hands were cold when he touched Shu'er, and his palms were covered in cold sweat, which showed how nervous she was at that time.

In fact, why am I not nervous?

If something happens to Shu'er again, I really can't bear it.

"No matter what you say in the future, I will never leave your side."

If those assassins hadn't been unprepared for Shu'er's sound attack technique, Shu'er would have been in danger at this time.

Ye Shunan was still frightened when he recalled the situation just now.

Those assassins were determined to kill him, and each one of them rushed towards him with a fierce look on his face.

If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't see his offensive, why would he?

Their opponents.

"Who do you think the mastermind will be?"

Ye Shunan asked, looking into Sikong Zhanbai's eyes.

Who wants to die the most?

Princess Wenta Yeyanjing or someone else.

I have made so many enemies that I can't tell who it is.

"It's hard to tell yet, but what's strange is that those assassins were clearly targeting the emperor at the beginning.

Why did their target change to you in the middle?

Or maybe they were using a strategy to attack the east and attack the west, hoping to get everyone involved.

I think their target is the emperor, so move me away so they can deal with you who are alone."

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why they suddenly changed the target of their attack midway.

Ye Shunan pondered for a moment after hearing this, but shook his head, "No, if their target was me from the beginning, there is no need to choose to attack in the palace.

These assassins want to sneak in in the strictly forbidden areas of the palace by pretending to be dancing girls. , it must have taken a lot of effort Husband, if this is the case, it is better to attack me outside the palace.

Wouldn't it be more convenient?

Maybe, they really just saw that there was no hope of assassinating Sikong Qianrong, so they turned their target to me.

But, why me?

What good will it do them to kill me?”

Hearing the loud sound of firecrackers in the distance, Ye Shunan could only think about what had just happened at the palace banquet.

Who could be responsible for assassinating the emperor at the palace banquet, and on such a large scale?

, it must not be an ordinary reason.

Could it be related to the recent war?

Sikong Zhanbai called Ye Shunan twice, but she didn't respond at all.

Sikong Zhanbai then reached out and lifted Ye Shunan's chin, turning her face to him, "Okay, don't think about these things anymore. , if I ask anything, I will tell you as soon as possible, okay?"

Ye Shunan also raised her hand and pinched Sikong Zhanbai's cheek, and said with a smile: "I know, I don't want to worry about these things, but your highness, you must ask who the mastermind is."

"Why do you want to do it yourself?"

Sikong Zhanbai asked with a smile.

Ye Shunan shook his head slightly, "I want to know how they got into the New Year's Eve palace banquet."

The annual New Year's Eve palace banquet is attended by all the princes and ministers of the imperial court, so the defense is extremely tight.

It is not easy for these assassins to sneak into the New Year's Eve palace banquet.

And the most important thing is that they are not the same.

Two, but a group, and they also had soft swords hidden on them.

Even King Dan and Sikong Zhanbai were not allowed to bring any weapons when they entered the palace.

However, these dancers hid fish intestine soft swords on their bodies, but no one found out.

I don't know if they should say that their kung fu is perfect.

It should be said that those in the palace were too careless.

In the palace and Fengning Palace, the queen was already uneasy.

This New Year's Eve palace banquet was arranged by herself, and all the performances were selected by herself.

She never thought that those dancing girls would be At this moment, they even had soft swords hidden on their bodies.

This was a huge oversight.

How could they not even know that they had soft swords hidden on their bodies?

How did the palace maid in charge of body searches do their job?

"Queen, please have a cup of tea to calm down first.

What happened at the palace banquet just now was too scary."

Yao Sixue's personal maid poured a cup of tea and handed it to her hand.

Feeling the warmth in her hands, Yao Sixue felt a little calmer.

She was about to lift the lid of the cup and take a sip of warm tea.

However, the moment she smelled the aroma of tea, she slammed the tea cup in her hand. on the ground.

"The Queen!"

All the maids serving in the palace exclaimed, looking at Yao Sixue with fear in their eyes.

What happened to the Queen suddenly?

Yao Sixue herself didn't think about why she suddenly threw the teacup on the ground.

But the moment she smelled the fragrance of tea, she felt irritated and subconsciously threw the teacup on the ground.

It was probably because of that woman.

After all, she was a thorn in my heart, and I was afraid that the quilt could not be pulled out.

Thinking of the banquet in the palace just now, even in such a critical situation, he was still thinking about the safety of that woman.

He had saved himself before, and that time he was seriously injured in order to save himself.

How happy he was at that time, to have such an outstanding man who was willing to block the knife for him, even risking his life to save himself.

It would be great if that was true, but I would always wake up from the dream.

How happy I was then, how miserable I am now, so desperate and risking my life to save him, it turned out to be him who was acting to deceive himself.

In the past, the only person he cared about was Ye Shunan.

It had always been like this.

When he was saving himself, it was a lie that he was critically injured with a sword in his chest.

But it was true that when he was saving Ye Shunan, the sword penetrated his arm and his martial arts skills were completely disabled.

You can tell the difference from this.

Even if it's just a show, he is not willing to do what he can do for Ye Shunan.

"Go and call the palace servants who are responsible for arranging the dancers.

I have something to ask them."

No matter what you say this time, it is all your negligence as a queen.

If the emperor really wants to pursue it, then I really have no choice.

It can be argued and can only be punished.

But he had to find out what went wrong so that he could apologize to the emperor.

"Yes, slave, go right away."

"Oh, by the way, let me ask you which palace the emperor is resting in today."

"yes."

After the embarrassing palace banquet, Sikong Qianrong went straight back to his palace and shunned all the palace guests.

Sikong Qianrong locked himself in the empty palace to drink alone, with a cup of steaming tea beside him.

The aroma of tea and wine mixed into everything, and they were no longer distinguishable from each other.

Sikong Qianrong poured himself a glass of wine, with a hint of a faint smile on his lips.

He didn't expect that today's New Year's Eve palace banquet would end like this.

Did God think that he had not had enough today?

Did he just announce the marriage?

The news to Sikong Zhanbai and Ye Shunan was that the assassins were on the scene here.

Sikong Qianrong looked at his right hand, a strange color flashing in his eyes.

He never regretted that he injured his arm and lost his martial arts skills in order to save her.

She even felt a little bit lucky that she was the one who saved her and not Sikong Zhanbai.

She was even lucky that she injured her arm for her.

This could be regarded as a way for her to remember herself.

She will remember it in this life.

If he injured his arm while saving her, will he never be erased from her heart?

With a self-deprecating smile on his lips, Sikong Qianrong held the wine glass to his lips.

Unsteadily, a drop of wine spilled out and landed on his mouth, so cold.

Just like this cold dormitory, there are thousands of lights and fireworks outside, but here, it is so cold and cold, like a tomb, only oneself, like a lonely ghost.

"Your Majesty, I wish to see you as a concubine."

The person who came in was Sikong Qianrong's eunuch.

Sikong Qianrong frowned slightly when he heard this, but did not raise his head to look at the eunuch.

Instead, he said in a cold voice: "Didn't I tell no one to disturb me?"

This eunuch has always been very measured. , it seems that he indulged them too much, and didn't even take his instructions to heart at all.

This eunuch is so proficient in observing words and expressions.

At this time, he could see the displeasure in Sikong Qianrong's heart and said quickly: "Concubine Ru has prepared some food and is going to send it to the emperor.

I am worried that the food will be cold, so..."

Before he could finish speaking, Sikong Qianrong said, "Okay, send her back.

I want to stay alone for a while."

"Yes."

The accompanying eunuch quickly withdrew, and at the same time raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his head.

If he hadn't looked pitifully at Concubine Rufei standing in the cold wind with a food box, he wouldn't have risked it.

Report this danger to the emperor.

However, he felt very strange in his heart.

The person who was the most important to the emperor was obviously Miss Ye, so he should also love Concubine Ru, who was very similar to Miss Ye.

After all, he could not get the real Miss Ye.

It would be nice to have someone so similar to her as a substitute, but I didn't expect that since Concubine Ru entered the palace, the emperor would not even go to her bedroom at all, not to mention doting on her.

I don’t know what the emperor was thinking.

Since he didn’t want to be favored as a concubine, he simply didn’t let her enter the palace in the first place.

Why let her enter the palace, make her a concubine, and then treat her so coldly?

With this thought in mind, he had already walked all the way outside the palace.

The cold wind in the middle of the night suddenly hit him, and the attendant eunuch subconsciously wrapped his clothes tightly.

Seeing the eunuch coming out, Concubine Ru quickly stepped forward and asked softly: "What did the emperor say?"

There was a smile in the eunuch's eyes and he responded respectfully: "The emperor was assassinated just now at the palace banquet.

He has not recovered yet.

He does not want to see anyone at this time, so please come back."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Ru's eyes suddenly showed disappointment, and she handed the food box in her hand to the eunuch's hand, "Then please, father-in-law, please send these to the emperor.

The palace banquet ended so early, and the emperor didn't even think about coming."

Didn’t eat much.”

The eunuch didn't answer, but looked at Concubine Ru with a troubled expression, "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's that the Emperor doesn't want to see anyone now, including my servants.

It's late at night and the wind is strong, and I still can't help you."

Please come back."

After Ru Fei's hand holding the food box froze in the air for a moment, she reluctantly took it back, thanked the eunuch softly, and then turned and walked away.

But as soon as she took a few steps, she turned around and came back.

She shouted towards the closed door of the bedroom: "Your Majesty, I heard that the Emperor was assassinated at the palace banquet, and I want to come to see the Emperor.

Can the Emperor allow me to come?"

"Go in" The eunuch hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hey, what are you doing?

The emperor is not in a good mood.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Please don't really offend the emperor and cause trouble for yourself."

However, this imperial concubine is really brave enough to dare to stand outside the emperor's chamber and shout loudly.

I have never seen her like this in all the years I have been in the palace.

Ru Fei didn't stop and stood there shouting.

She knew that Sikong Qianrong was in a bad mood tonight.

Today he officially married Sikong Zhanbai and Ye Shunan, and gave his beloved woman to another man.

How could he feel better?

And he encountered an assassination incident.

He must be in a terrible mood today. .

"My Lady, please stop shouting."

These slaves can't do anything to the Imperial Concubine, but the Emperor can kill them in any minute.

If the Imperial Concubine yells like this, if the Emperor blames them, How unjust it is for these slaves.

But Concubine Ru was determined to see Sikong Qianrong, so she ignored the obstruction of the eunuchs and maids and kept shouting loudly into the palace.

Not long after, Sikong Qianrong's voice came out from inside, "Let her in."

Ru Fei was overjoyed when she heard this, and the eunuchs and maids guarding outside also breathed a sigh of relief.

They didn't seem to be angry when they heard the emperor's tone.

Ru Fei slowly walked into Sikong Qianrong's bedroom with a food box.

This was her first time here.

She heard from the palace maids that the emperor would never leave any concubines to spend the night in his bedroom, so wouldn't she be the first?

The concubine who made an exception thought this way, and Rufei felt a burst of joy in her heart, and her hand holding the food box tightened slightly.

When we walked to the inner hall, there was only one palace lantern on, and the surroundings looked frighteningly dark.

Walking further inside, I saw Sikong Qianrong sitting on the couch alone, pouring himself a drink, with no intention of raising his head to look at Concubine Ru.

"Your Majesty," Concubine Ru couldn't help but call out, but Sikong Qianrong still didn't respond and drank his own wine.

She had just made a scene outside, and Ru Fei was worried that she would make Sikong Qianrong even more unhappy, so she stopped talking and just sat beside her.

Sikong Qianrong just pretended that she was not there and kept drinking with his head down.

Under the soft light of the palace lantern, Sikong Qianrong's side face has graceful lines, and his long eyelashes cover a pair of deep eyes, but they look particularly alluring.

Ru Fei looked at Sikong Qianrong in front of her and felt her heart beat as fast as a drum.

She saw a cup of tea on the table and was about to raise her hand to take it to drink.

However, before her hand touched the tea cup, Sikong Qian was already beaten by her.

Rong screamed, "Don't move."

The anger in that voice shocked Ru Fei.

She looked at the cup of tea and then at Sikong Qianrong, who was frowning.

She understood why he put the cup of tea and for whom.

My heart felt inexplicably sour.

She looked at the lonely Sikong Qianrong and couldn't help but said: "Why is the emperor doing this?

Miss Ye will eventually be His Highness's wife.

The emperor should let her go so that he can feel better."

Sikong Qianrong then slowly raised his head to look at Rufei.

His deep eyes seemed to suck her in half, but his handsome face made Rufei blush.

But in my ears I heard Sikong Qianrong's cold voice, "Then can you let go of Sikong Zhanbai?"

Ru Fei was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then she was shocked.

He knew that she had feelings for Sikong Zhanbai, but she thought about it for a moment, but didn't know how to answer him.

She did have feelings for Sikong Zhanbai, but then It was because of my father's expectations, and if I couldn't marry Sikong Zhanbai at that time, I would have to marry a romantic rogue, so I tried my best to marry Sikong Zhanbai at that time, but now since marrying into the palace , I never seemed to think of him again.

Sikong Qianrong thought her silence was acquiescence, "Look, you can't forget Sikong Zhanbai yourself, how can you come to persuade me?"

"Forget it, go back, I want to be alone."

Sikong Qianrong was about to reach out and pour himself another glass of wine, but it was Ru Fei who took the wine pot first and said softly: "I'd better give it to you, Your Majesty.

Pour the bar, today is New Year’s Eve, let me accompany the emperor.”

Sikong Qianrong smiled faintly, "Actually, you don't have to be like this.

I know that your father sent you to the palace just to prevent Haoze Kingdom from starting a war with Yue Zhao for the time being, but it was useless.

I will never let this great opportunity pass. , do you understand?”

Ru Fei paused while pouring the wine, and then continued: "I am just a harem woman.

I have no control over these matters, and I don't want to.

The emperor is the emperor of Haoze Kingdom.

Naturally, the emperor has to say what to do."

Calculate."

"Your father may die in this war, and I will become your father-killing enemy, and Yuezhao Kingdom will soon cease to exist.

With the hatred of killing your father and destroying the country, can you still be my concubine with peace of mind?"

Sikong A sarcastic smile appeared on Qianrong's lips.

Concubine Ru seemed not to care at all, and said softly: "Although I am the princess of Yuezhao Kingdom in name, in the final analysis, I am just a tool used by Yuezhao Kingdom for marriage.

I am lucky to be able to marry the emperor.

Since I am already the emperor’s concubine, I am a member of the Haoze Kingdom and have nothing to do with the Yuezhao Kingdom.”

"It has nothing to do with Yue Zhaoguo anymore."

Sikong Qianrong smiled lightly, "Do you dare to say that the assassination at the palace banquet today has nothing to do with you?"

Ru Fei was shocked, and the wine bottle in her hand instantly fell to the ground, making a soft sound, which alerted the palace guards outside.

"Your Majesty!"

The nervous voice of the palace came from outside.

"Nothing."

Sikong Qianrong said to the palace attendants outside.

"The assassination has nothing to do with me, and I have no knowledge of it at all."

Concubine Ru suddenly knelt on the ground and looked straight at Sikong Qianrong.

As if she was afraid that Sikong Qianrong wouldn't believe it, she raised her finger and swore: "I swear that this matter has nothing to do with me.

Otherwise, I will not die a good death.

After my death, I will go to the eighteenth level of hell and suffer the pain of having my tongue pulled out and cooked in oil."

Sikong Qianrong glanced at her lightly, "Okay, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Concubine Ru stood up from the ground.

"It's late at night.

You should go back quickly.

I want to be alone."

"Your Majesty, I know that you are feeling uncomfortable.

Just think that I am Miss Ye, and that it is her who is accompanying you to watch the New Year's Eve today.

I will sit here quietly and never speak."

I don't know why, she always The first time I saw Sikong Qianrong, I always had a feeling of distress.

This man, this proud son of the emperor, was so affectionate and obsessed with a woman.

Such feelings are enough to move any woman.

If he wants to get Ye Shunan, there are many ways.

He is the emperor of Haoze Kingdom and has never really been afraid of Prince Dan's palace, but he is willing to fulfill his beloved woman and let her live a good life.

However, this deep love has already been in Ru Fei's heart.

It's admiration.

Sikong Qianrong took another sip of wine and then shook his head, "You are not her, so how can I regard you as her?

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

There is no second Ye Shunan in the world, no matter how much you pretend to be like her, you are not her. " Ru Fei felt sour in her heart, and there was mist in her eyes.

After a moment, she managed to suppress her emotions and said softly: "Then the emperor can also tell my concubine about Miss Ye and the story between you."

One day.

If someone is by his side to talk to him, he won't spend this New Year's Eve so lonely and coldly.

Sikong Qianrong smiled slightly, "We can't talk about what happened between her and us in a short while."

How long has it been since no one dared to mention her name in front of him?

The palace lantern illuminated the voices of two people, one was speaking and the other was listening, but both were sad people.

At this time, Qingchen Garden was bustling with activity.

In the flower hall in the backyard, the New Year's Eve dinner has been served one after another.

The maids and servants in the garden also sat down at the table next to them, chatting and laughing, making the whole room lively.

Seeing that all the dishes were being served, Yuwei sighed softly and said: "Oh, it's not easy for Shu Nan to come back this year, but we can't have the New Year's Eve dinner together, and even Qiyun is not here."

This is still After I met Qiyun, this was the first time I didn't have New Year's Eve dinner with her.

"Qiyun is not here, am I back?"

Yuwei was happy when she heard this and quickly turned to look at the door.

Isn't that Ye Shunan?

"Why did the New Year's Eve palace banquet end so soon when you came back?"

Yu Wei quickly walked to Ye Shunan's side and asked.

Ye Shunan walked to the table and sat down, saying, "Don't mention it.

In the middle of the palace banquet, some assassins came and everything was messed up."

"Assassin" Yuwei looked Ye Shunan up and down, "Are you okay?"

"I almost didn't come back alive to see you."

"Ah, it's true."

Yuwei turned to look at Sikong Zhanbai for confirmation.

Sikong Zhanbai nodded, "Those assassins were originally targeting the emperor, but then they suddenly changed their target to Shu'er for some reason."

"Oh my God, this kind of thing can happen even if I go to a palace banquet.

From now on, I'd better stay at home.

Oh, by the way, will the marriage be delayed as well?"

Yuwei asked.

"Not at all.

Those assassins have some foresight and know that they have to wait for the emperor to grant the marriage before taking action."

Sikong Zhanbai joked, but it is true that if they choose to take action before the emperor gives the marriage, their marriage to Shu'er will be in danger.

I have to push it back again.

Luo Chengli smiled and said: "If these assassins really destroyed the emperor's marriage, His Highness would probably be so angry that he would cut them into pieces."

Ye Shunan glanced at the dishes on the table in front of her and said with a smile: "Can you please stop talking about cutting things into pieces on such an occasion?

It can easily cause indigestion."

As she said that, she turned to look at Sikong Zhan aside.

Bai said, "Okay, you've sent me back.

Hurry back to Prince Dan's Mansion.

Your father is still waiting for you to come back and watch the New Year together."

Sikong Zhanbai squeezed Ye Shunan's hand, then kissed Ye Shunan's forehead, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go back first."

However, Yuwei glanced at Sikong Zhanbai who was reluctant to leave, and said with a sour tone: "Okay, don't be reluctant to let go.

From now on, Shu Nan will have to stay up with you at Prince Dan's Mansion every New Year's Eve.

This year?"

Can you give her back to us?"

Sikong Zhanbai just smiled, whispered a few instructions to Ye Shunan, then turned and walked out.

Ye Shunan then turned his head and looked at Yuwei who was sitting next to him, "Okay, you are full of jealousy, don't you think eating dumplings is not enough?"

He said with a smile: "I look at you, next year You probably won’t be able to stay up with us on New Year’s Eve.”

"Why?"

Yuwei asked puzzled.

"No reason, just get married."

Ye Shunan looked at Luo Chengli with a smile, and Luo Chengli just smiled lightly.

Yu Wei was about to speak, but she saw the smiling little girl sitting next to Fang Qiqing, adding food to his bowl, with a happy expression on her face, while Fang Qiqing still had the same expression.

No expression.

Yuwei thought to herself: This little girl is enlightened.

Looking in the direction of Wentari, I saw him eating the food in front of him without saying a word.

Is he in a bad mood?

No wonder he hasn't spoken since the beginning.

This is not like the ordinary Wentarui.

Okay, this winter is coming soon, and the spring of little girl Xiaoxiao is coming too.

Wait a minute, does this smiling little girl really like Qiqing?

The New Year's Eve dinner was eaten intermittently.

From time to time, someone would go out to set off fireworks or something.

Everyone was very casual, talking and laughing to each other.

The meal was not finished for a long time.

"I'll go check on Ning Yan.

She lives alone and is pretty deserted."

Wen Tarui stood up suddenly and looked at everyone.

"Okay, go ahead and remember to stay a little longer before coming back."

Yuwei looked at Wen Tarui with a smile, but the smile looked fake.

Ye Shunan pinched Yuwei hard under the table, and Yuwei stopped smiling and lowered her head to eat the food again.

The little girl Xiaoxiao didn't seem to hear Wen Tarui's words.

She was talking quietly into Fang Qiqing's ear, with a smile on her face.

Wen Tarui glanced at the smiling little girl and strode out.

After Wen Ta Rui left, Yu Wei looked at the little girl with a smile and said, "Okay, you understand what I said and you know how to use the right method.

Just keep it like this.

Didn't you see it just now?

Wen Ta Rui If Rui Lin looked at you like this when he left, it won't be long before you can completely defeat that Ning Yan."

The smile on the smiling little girl's face disappeared in an instant.

She stared at the direction Wen Tarui left and said worriedly: "Is it really possible?

Will he be more carefree with that Ningyan girl?

He promised If you want to marry me, you can’t keep your word.”

"Well, although that girl Ningyan is indeed prettier, gentler, smarter, and smarter than you."

Seeing the smiley girl's face sinking, Yuwei stopped her words at the right time, "But you You are younger than her, you are kinder than her, and you have bigger eyes than her."

Hearing this, Ye Shunan raised his hand to touch his forehead and sighed softly.

There was a lot of excitement here, but after a while, Wen Tarui hurriedly walked in, holding someone in his arms.

Ye Shunan took a closer look, wasn't that Miss Ningyan?

"What's wrong?"

Ye Shunan quickly stood up and asked looking at the unconscious woman in Wen Tarui's arms.

"She fell at the gate of Qingchen Garden.

She was very hot all over.

Chengli, please show her quickly."

Wen Tarui put Ningyan on a chair in the hall and sat down.

Looking at the girl Ningyan, her lips turned white, and her whole body was shivering, as if she was afraid of the cold.

"Go get a blanket to cover her."

Ye Shunan said quickly, but she was thinking in her heart, could this be another plan of the Ningyan girl?

If this is really her plan, then she is really willing to do it.

If she continues to have such a high fever, her brain will be burned out.

In order to win the heart of Wentari, she will not risk her own life.

But if you think about it carefully, this girl Ningyan probably doesn't know that there is no one guarding the gate of Qingchen Garden today.

If it were normal times, someone would definitely find her, but today is New Year's Eve, and everyone in Qingchen Garden gathered in the backyard She was having New Year's Eve dinner in the flower hall, and no one would notice that there was a person lying at the door, so she was unlucky. t:
