Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Wu Wang was seriously injured in order to save Jia, and was rewarded by the emperor in Italy.

He not only received many gold, silver and jewelry rewards, but was also promoted to be a eunuch holding a pen.

In this way, he and Zuo Ji became the two highest-ranking eunuchs in the palace, but he was younger than Zuo Ji, which destined him to go further than Zuo Ji in the future.

The assassination came too timely, which not only allowed Wu Wang to gain the emperor's trust, but also interrupted Li Ji's plan.

Li Ji originally wanted to accuse Wu Wangan casually.

Certainly not now.

Wu Wanggang saved the emperor, and he is a meritorious minister. If Li Jiruo attacked him at this time, the emperor would definitely not sit idly by.

Things got tricky all of a sudden.

Li Ji went to the palace to visit the emperor.

"My minister heard that His Majesty was assassinated last night, is His Majesty injured?"

Thinking of what happened last night, the emperor couldn't help frowning, and said in a deep voice, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Li Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "Have you found out the origin of the assassin?"

Emperor: "The people below found out that the assassin was originally a retainer raised by the Dongyang Palace."

King Dongyang loves to practice martial arts. He often holds martial arts competitions and recruits heroes from all over the world.

There are many disciples with extraordinary martial arts in his house, and that assassin is one of them.

Things are already obvious here.

That assassin was probably sent by Dongyang King to assassinate the emperor.

Even though King Dongyang had already fled from Shangjing, he was still ruthless and sent people to sneak into the palace, intending to assassinate the emperor and disrupt the world.

This logic does not sound wrong.

And the evidence is complete, the assassin is indeed the retainer of Dongyang Palace.

Li Ji couldn't find anything wrong with it.

But he still has doubts.

He felt that the timing of the assassin's appearance was too coincidental.

As soon as he was about to take action against Wu Wang, an assassin suddenly appeared, giving Wu Wang a chance to make meritorious service in front of the emperor.

Li Ji did not believe that such a coincidence could exist in the world.

It's a pity that he couldn't find any evidence to identify Wu Wang, and all his guesses were just guesses.

Li Ji remembered that before going out, Man Man awkwardly asked him to find out if Hua Zhaorong was injured by the assassin last night?

Li Ji was too lazy to ask others, so he asked the emperor directly.

"I wonder if Hua Zhaorong is okay?"

The emperor frowned and looked at him.

Li Ji explained.

"Your Majesty, don't get me wrong, I don't have any thoughts about Hua Zhaorong.

It was Weichen's princess who cared about Hua Zhaorong's safety, and specially asked Weichen to inquire about it when he entered the palace.

She is pregnant now, Wei Chen is afraid that she will seriously hurt her body due to worrying about it.

I beg His Majesty to give you an accurate word, so that I can go back to deal with her. "

The emperor's brows stretched out, and he smiled lightly.

"Princess Zhao and Hua Zhaorong are really sisters.

Go back and tell her, Hua Zhaorong was just a little frightened, and she has already asked the imperial doctor to see her.

Now that Hua Zhaorong is fine, let her rest assured. "

Li Ji cupped his hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for letting me know that I will retire."

After leaving Hanzhang Hall, Li Ji didn't leave the palace directly, but took a detour to Wu Wang's residence.

Wu Wang was recovering from his injuries at the moment, when he saw King Zhao coming, his expression changed slightly.

He wanted to get up to salute, but was held down by Li Ji.

"You are still injured, so there is no need to be polite."

Whether it was intentional or not, Li Ji's hand just happened to be on Wu Wang's injured shoulder.

Wu Wang felt the pain, and his body trembled slightly. The wound that was originally wrapped in gauze opened suddenly, and blood slowly seeped out.

Li Ji quickly withdrew his hand and said in surprise.

"It turns out that you hurt your shoulder. I don't know, but I accidentally touched your wound. I'm really sorry."

Wu Wang gritted his teeth and endured the pain: "It's okay, it's just a small injury, the prince doesn't need to worry about it."

However, in his heart he was insulting King Zhao fiercely.

At this time, a young eunuch ran in with soup and medicine. When he saw King Zhao in the room, he was startled and hurriedly knelt down to salute.

When he stood up again, he found that the wound on Wu Wang's shoulder had actually opened, and he shouted in a hurry.

"I'm going to get you a doctor right now, servant girl."

Eunuchs are not qualified to invite imperial physicians to see a doctor. Even a high-status eunuch like Wu Wang can only hire doctors.

The little eunuch ran out in a hurry to find a doctor.

Li Ji bent down, stared at Wu Wang's eyes, and asked slowly.

"Is that assassin really a servant of Dongyang Palace?"

Wu Wang looked blank: "What?"

He was vigilant in his heart, why did King Zhao suddenly ask about this? Is King Zhao still suspicious of him?

Li Ji continued on his own: "This king suspects that the main messenger behind the assassin is not Dongyang King, but someone else."

Wu Wang: "The slaves don't understand what the prince is talking about."

He was surprised by King Zhao's sensitivity, but he was not panicked.

Even if King Zhao was suspicious, it was useless, because the assassin was indeed a retainer raised by the Dongyang Prince's mansion.

It's just that before that person became a guest of Dongyang Prince's Mansion, he had done things for Wu Wang.

Now that the person is completely dead, no one can find out his real past.

Li Ji: "Don't you want to know who the king suspects most now? It's actually the fourth prince."

Wu Wang looked surprised: "What does this matter have to do with the Fourth Prince?"

He became more and more vigilant in his heart, and he must not let King Zhao involve the fourth prince.

Just as he was racking his brains to think about how to respond to King Zhao's temptation, King Zhao suddenly stood up straight and said something without beginning or end.

"Forget it, it's meaningless to tell you this."

Actually let it go.

This was beyond Wu Wang's expectation, he thought King Zhao would continue to test.

At this time, the little eunuch led the doctors and hurried in.

The doctor began to check Wu Wang's wound, and found that the wound was indeed open. He immediately opened the medicine box and began to treat Wu Wang's wound.

While they were busy, Li Ji turned and left without saying a word.

Even though Wu Wang didn't say anything just now, Li Ji already knew all the thoughts in Wu Wang's mind through mind reading.

The assassin last night was indeed arranged by Wu Wang.

Wu Wang probably knew that he had aroused King Zhao's suspicion, so he deliberately arranged a trick. Not only did he win the emperor's trust and reward, but he also conveniently put a big pot on King Dongyang.

Kill two birds with one stone, and the means are great.

As for the person hiding behind Wu Wang, nine out of ten it is the Fourth Prince Li Ying.

This can be seen from Wu Wang's efforts to protect the fourth prince.

I don't know how the two of them got in touch? To be able to hide Chen Cang under the eyes of the emperor.

Li Ji left the palace and rode back to the palace.

It was only after entering the door that Zhong Anbo and Mrs. He came.

Knowing that Manman was pregnant, the couple came to visit her specially.

Facing his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Li Ji's attitude was quite correct. He asked his father-in-law and mother-in-law to eat, and told them about Hua Zhaorong's situation.

"I just came back from the palace, and the sage told me that everything is fine with Hua Zhaorong now."
