He lowered his eyes slightly to look at the road, and concentrated part of his energy on his feet. Just when the short blade in Ah Cai's hand became slightly looser from being close to the little emperor's skin,

A stone suddenly flew out of the air and hit his wrist.

Ah Cai was in pain and subconsciously let go. The dagger fell off and fell to the ground with a clang.

Before he could recover, Qianye had already flown forward at an extremely fast speed. With a swing of his long sword, he cut off the eunuch's right arm and saved the little emperor. At the same time, he kicked the eunuch away.

"Ah!" A shrill scream rang through the air, and Ah Cai's bleeding arm was thrown into an arc of blood in the air, and his body fell heavily to the ground.

The guards stepped forward one after another, put their knives against the eunuch's neck, and imprisoned him completely.

"Your Majesty... this servant... I know I was wrong. Please... save this slave." Because of the pain, the little eunuch's facial expression was distorted and he made intermittent sounds.

Qi Chen was stunned for a while and could not calm down, but Qi Yan, who jumped down from the attic, strolled forward and took the words.

"If you are still unwilling to tell who is behind the scenes, there is no use keeping your life. Cut off your limbs and throw them into the mountains to feed the wolves."

That person controls the situation of his family. In this world, his sister is his only relative.

Previously, the young eunuch wanted to struggle because he was concerned about the other party's safety. He wanted to survive, but he also didn't want to bring trouble to his sister.

But at the last moment of his death, his reason was completely swallowed up by fear, and he had no time to think about others.

The only thought in his mind was to survive. Seeing that the guard was about to take action, Ah Cai immediately compromised, "No, no, I said, I said, that person is Ding..."

However, before the little eunuch could finish speaking, a hidden arrow suddenly cut through the air with a "whoosh" sound, and shot through the eunuch's throat.

The unspoken words were choked. Ah Cai opened his eyes wide in shock and closed his half-open mouth slightly. After a moment, he finally breathed his last.

Dingwangfu.

After receiving the news from the spy, Qi Ye punched the table angrily, "Didn't the news come back this morning that there was nothing abnormal? How come something suddenly went wrong in less than half a day!"

The assassination was originally designed to allow Ah Cai to "risk his life to save" the young emperor. Since then, Qi Chen has always trusted Ah Cai. Yesterday was the first time he disobeyed Qi Yan because of the eunuch.

What is certain is that there was no problem in the relationship between the master and the servant until yesterday. Today I heard that Qi Chen was confined to the study and had not met the young eunuch at all. How was it exposed?

I originally thought that as long as Qi Chen maintained trust in Ah Cai, even if Qi Yan saw the clues, he would still have concerns. If he really attacked Ah Cai, the uncle and nephew would definitely turn against each other, and Qi Ye would be happy to see it happen. .

But now...

If Ah Cai hadn't kidnapped the little emperor in order to survive and made such a big fuss, he wouldn't have even known about Ah Cai's arrest, let alone killed him in time.

The spies who had painstakingly buried themselves in the regent's palace and the young emperor were removed one after another. Qi Ye not only lost support, but also felt worried in his heart.

Although the young eunuch failed to confess him, he had already alerted the enemy and had planned hard for a long time. Not to mention using a bamboo basket to draw water, he was afraid that he would still be unable to move forward.

"Is there any news from the spies?" Qi Ye frowned and looked at the personal guard to ask.

"It seems that there is nothing else. After today's morning court, the emperor went directly back to the imperial study room," Li Shang stared in thought, and when he said this, he suddenly remembered.

"By the way, Miss Shen is also in the palace today. She was at the scene when A Cai kidnapped His Majesty."

Hearing the guard mention Shen Wan, Qi Ye's eyes couldn't help but darken.

For some reason, he had a strong hunch that this matter had something to do with that woman.

If he took the initiative to tell her about Cuiya last time, then what about Ah Cai?

That girl used to be stupid and stupid. If you say a few nice words to her, she will be so happy that she forgets everything, but now...

Qi Ye looked down at the crescent birthmark painted on his arm, and his pupils shrank.

It seems that even this can't attract her. Is the Nine Emperors Uncle really that charming?

Is it because the two of them have physical contact?Thinking that a woman suddenly changed after her wedding night, Qi Ye felt more and more that it must be like that.

If that girl had skin-to-skin contact with him, would she change her mind?

Regardless of love or not, Shen Wan must be his.

His fingers clenched tighter and tighter, and a flash of light flashed in Qi Ye's eyes. The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and the palace banquet that day was a perfect opportunity for him.
