Chapter 289

"A master..."

Ruo Lanlan paced back and forth in the inner hall, always feeling that something was wrong.

Zhao Qingcheng spent a long time talking, just to get the emperor to agree to invite an expert into the palace?
Can an expert still expose that she is pretending to be stupid?
No, no, there must be something wrong here.

What method can this expert use to harm her?
"Your Majesty, you're making Xia Cao dizzy..."

Xia Cao stood aside, speaking weakly.

"Hey, Xia Cao, the last time you sent a message to someone, the person my father mentioned..."

Ruo Lanlan suddenly remembered this important event.

"Your Majesty said..."

Xia Cao moved closer to Ruo Lanlan's ear and whispered a few words.

"Okay, okay, let her check it for me..."

Ruo Lanlan was overjoyed immediately.

Ruo Zhengyuan opposed Ruo Lanlan's marriage to the palace at the beginning, so he left a spy in the palace afterwards.

It's just that he didn't intend to tell Ruo Lanlan until the critical moment.

This time, if Ruo Lanlan hadn't written a letter asking for help, Ruo Zhengyuan would not have told her about this person's existence.

Ruo Lanlan was about to instruct Xia Cao to find this person, but suddenly hesitated again:
If this person is really loyal, why is she not mentioned at all in the original book?

"Forget it, I can only give it a try."

Ruo Lanlan patted Xia Cao on the head, and told her about this matter.

……

In the middle of the night, the imperial garden was already empty. A woman in night gown hurried forward. Her pace was very fast, and she obviously had a bit of kung fu.

Not long after she walked by, another man in black followed unhurriedly.

The woman walked towards Qingyi Palace and soon disappeared into the night.

Yan Mingrui took off his mask, it seemed that the inconspicuous flower house envoy of the Imperial Garden was Ruo Zhengyuan's eyes and ears in the palace, and he was indeed an undetectable candidate.

Judging by the direction she was going, Ruo Lanlan must have become suspicious of the imperial concubine and wanted to know what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd.

However, what can a mere green house envoy find out?

Yan Mingrui pouted disapprovingly.

……

"Ah! There are assassins!"

An ear-piercing scream woke up Yan Mingrui who had already dozed off on the Taihu Lake stone by the pool.

Before he could react, he saw a black shadow passing by him, and quickly got into the cave of the rockery.

Just looking at that person's figure, Yan Mingrui already guessed that she was the envoy just now.

Ruo Zhengyuan's eyes and ears are as stupid as Ruo Lanlan's, right?

Don't you think you are blind when you don't see such a big person standing here?
Yan Mingrui was about to drive the woman away, but found that she was clutching her arms and passed out. It turned out that she was injured, so she could only hide as much as possible.

He shook his head involuntarily, and wanted to leave:

It has nothing to do with him.

Just two steps away, one lamp after another approached King Ding from far and near, and the guards shouted at him from a distance:
"Stop! The man in front stops!"

Yan Mingrui not only stopped, but also stared at them with his hands behind his back. After a while, the guards rushed to him, and after seeing his face clearly, they were shocked:
"Uh... Your Highness King Ding, you, why are you here late at night?"

"You want to take care of it? Brother Huang doesn't care about me!"

Yan Mingrui's face was rascal, and the guards also knew that the emperor had always had nothing to do with him, but today's incident involved Qingyi Palace...

Several guards looked at each other and boldly asked:

"There is an assassin in the palace. I wonder if His Highness Prince Ding encountered any suspicious people passing by here wearing night clothes?"

Yan Mingrui rolled his eyes and stepped forward angrily:
"Are you blind? Who else is here besides this king? Yexingyi, do you mean that this king is the assassin?"

"This, this, I dare not, but..."

"Don't be so! You disturbed me Qingmeng, and I haven't said anything yet, so you beat me up first!"

Yan Mingrui was about to drive them away with a grimace, when another group of people came over with palace lanterns:

"Have you caught the assassin?"

When the leading maid saw Yan Mingrui standing in the middle, she was also startled:
"Why is it His Highness Prince Ding?"
