The system forced me to be emperor

The two pushed open the door and went in. Xiao Rui looked around, but he didn't find where the assassin was hiding. Could it be in the closet?

Who knows, Xiao Yan closed the door, looked at the bed, and said: "Miss Bai, don't be nervous, it's my seventh brother, he found your whereabouts. Although he is not a good person, he is not a bad person either. After all, if he is a bad person, He won’t come in person, just tell Dongchang.”

Xiao Rui decided to forgive Xiao Yan for being wronged for no reason. He also looked at the bed. At this time, the curtains on the bed were down, so he couldn't see the scenery inside the bed clearly. He really didn't expect that Xiao Yan hid the person on his bed.

At this time, a jade hand stretched out and gently raised the curtain, and a woman disguised as a man sat on the bed.

I saw her pale face, but her eyes were as bright as spring flowers, and her appearance was extremely beautiful, with an inherent pride in her brows.

She was also looking at Xiao Rui, with a slightly hoarse voice, and said: "Ahem...Sorry, I am injured and cannot present the ceremony. After I came to the capital, I heard about the reputation of His Highness the Seventh Prince. Nice to meet you!"

Xiao Rui asked directly: "Who are you, and why did you assassinate the King of Chu? If you can't explain why, don't blame this king for being ruthless."

When the woman heard Xiao Rui's voice, her eyes froze.

"Seventh brother..." Xiao Yan opened his mouth to persuade, Xiao Rui glared, and scolded: "Stop messing around! The King of Chu is your second brother, do you care about the difference between distant and close relatives?"

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, knowing in his heart that Seventh Brother's reprimand was justified. Although the princes were not close, they had blood ties after all, and the King of Chu, Xiao Yiheng, did not feel sorry for Xiao Yan.

The woman put away the abnormality in her eyes, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Xian's implication, if there is a reason for my incident, will you turn a blind eye?"

Xiao Rui did not admit or refute, and continued to ask: "You are not a local, and you are going to assassinate the King of Chu when you first arrive in the capital. What is the reason? Besides, I heard that you are looking for Ye Qianying, is it also to kill her?"

The woman shook her head and said: "I was entrusted by someone to find Ye Qianying, and to bring her a sentence. As for what it is, I'm sorry I can't tell. The assassination of the King of Chu is only for the King of Chu and the queen behind him, Duke Xi." A warning, telling them that their sins will eventually be revealed to the world. I also knew that I would not be able to kill the King of Chu in this assassination, but I did not expect that the guards around him turned out to be fifth-rank masters. They made a mistake and were seriously injured. "

Xiao Yan said: "Seventh Brother, you see, this is a personal grievance, and Miss Bai didn't intend to kill Second Brother, she just wanted to give him a warning."

"Warning? You put poison on the sword and said it was just a warning!" Xiao Rui glared.

Who knows, the woman shook her head and said: "Poisoning is a third-rate method, I despise it!"

Xiao Yan nodded hurriedly, then took out the woman's sword from the dark cabinet, and said: "Seventh brother, if you don't believe me, you can take a look at Miss Bai's sword. When I met her, she was seriously injured, and this sword has been on my side all the time. In my hand, I pledged myself as a prince, I did not touch the sword, and I tested it, there is no poison on the sword, if you don’t believe me, you can test it again.”

Xiao Rui looked at Xiao Yan's eyes, and saw that his eyes were clear, and there was no chance of dodging them.

"Since you have tested it, I will naturally believe you." Xiao Rui waved his hand and refused the test.

"But the king of Chu is indeed poisoned and has been examined by the imperial physician." After Xiao Rui muttered to himself, he suddenly thought of a possibility.

Xiao Rui came back to his senses, he looked at Xiao Yan, and demanded: "She can't stay in Tang Palace any longer, once her whereabouts are leaked, it will be extremely bad for you. Now that the injury has stabilized and there is no danger of life, then it is best to find a place to recuperate." But, send her away."

"I think my bed is a good place, no one else will be able to find it." Xiao Yan suggested.

Xiao Rui ignored him, but looked at the woman.

The woman was self-aware, nodded readily, and said, "Thanks to Your Highness Ninth Prince for saving my life, I will leave here so as not to drag His Highness Tang, His Highness Xian, please rest assured."

Only then did Xiao Rui's stern expression calm down, and he asked, "Miss, can you tell me who told you to find Ye Qianying?"

The woman was quite curious, and asked back: "Your Highness is so interested, could it be that you know her?"

"Ask casually." Xiao Rui didn't say it clearly, but secretly pondered in his heart, should he control this woman and interrogate her?

But considering Xiao Yan's relationship, this matter is postponed for a long time to discuss.

When Xiao Rui left the Tang Palace, he beat Xiao Yan again righteously and told him to send the woman out of here in person. He personally escorted her, and the people from Dongchang did not dare to search.

Xiao Yan moaned and sighed again, with a resentful expression on his face.

Xiao Rui didn't bother to talk to him, because next, he had other things to figure out!

"Go to Chu Palace!" Xiao Rui said to Li Yuanfang.

Chapter 242: Li Xiuer's Transformation: To help you is to help me!

Xiao Rui was concerned about King Chu's injury, so he came to King Chu's mansion logically.

In the past few days, Li Xiu'er stayed at the Prince Chu's mansion, and Xiao Rui came, so naturally she, as a princess, had to receive her in person.

"How is the second brother?" Xiao Rui asked as he walked.

When Li Xiuer saw Xiao Rui again, although her expression was calm and casual, she still couldn't control the strangeness in her heart.Although I avoided him several times, I still couldn't restrain my heartbeat.

"The sword wound is not serious, but he is still unconscious. The Tai Hospital is researching the types of poison these days, hoping to prepare an antidote as soon as possible." Li Xiuer said.

"My lord is auspicious, so nothing will happen." The side concubine Du Xueqin also responded.

When he came to the bedroom, Xiao Rui visited Xiao Yiheng, and then secretly winked at Li Xiu'er.

Li Xiu'er noticed Xiao Rui's eyes, panicked, and lowered her head subconsciously, but she couldn't restrain the ups and downs in her heart, and immediately raised her lowered head.

Xiao Rui watched her lower her head and was about to sigh, but she raised her head again, her eyes were a little flustered, her eyes flickered, and her cheeks were slightly red.

Seeing this budding appearance, Xiao Rui's mouth suddenly became dry, and he quickly held back his inner reverie, and continued to signal her with his eyes, pointing at Du Xueqin.

Li Xiu'er understood, and immediately said to Du Xueqin: "Sister Xueqin, the medicine for the prince should be almost ready, why don't you go and see for yourself? I don't feel at ease when my subordinates do things."

"Okay, sister, don't worry, my sister will go right away." Without doubt, Du Xueqin immediately left the bedroom with her maid.

As soon as the person left, Li Xiu'er became suspicious, and was about to ask, but Xiao Rui immediately stopped her with his eyes.

Xiao Rui deliberately said: "Sister-in-law, I'll take a look at the status of the second brother. Don't worry if there's nothing serious. I won't bother you any more. Let me leave."

"His Royal Highness is worried, I'll see you off." Li Xiu'er understood and sent Xiao Rui out of the room.

After walking for a while, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Xiao Rui took the opportunity to reach out and stuff a ball of paper into Li Xiuer's hand.

Li Xiuer's body froze, and the strange touch between her fingers made her body tense.

Xiao Rui cupped his hands and said, "Sister-in-law, my brother is leaving."

Li Xiu'er watched him leave, then went back to her bedroom and opened the note.

"Around noon, see you next to the Jingyuan cruise ship. I have something important to ask."

After reading the contents of the note, Li Xiuer burned it on the candle, and then she sat there in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

At noon, Li Xiu'er found Du Xueqin and said, "Sister, I'll go to Jingyuan. There are some things left there that need to be retrieved. Go back as soon as you go. Your husband will take care of it."

"Sister, don't worry, my husband will take care of me and other younger sisters, so don't worry." Du Xueqin said with a smile.

Li Xiuer nodded, and brought a confidant guard with her, and asked him to drive her to Jingyuan.

On the carriage, Li Xiuer's hands were intertwined, and her heart was ups and downs.

In order to take revenge on Xiao Yiheng, he had hinted at Xiao Rui so proactively that he didn't even send anyone to invite him to "heart-to-heart". It's important to talk about things, but if there's something really going on, or is it because the ulterior motives are not drinking?

If...he was about to do something, should he refuse or resist?
