Looking at the map and thinking about things, the time has reached midnight without even realizing it.

Shangguanqing got up and put on night clothes, blew out the lights, and left quietly through the window at the back.

The night was dark, the palace had faded from its splendor during the day, and only the palace lanterns were swaying in the wind.

She stood on the roof of the palace, judged the direction, and then left.

In a few jumps, we have arrived at Ning'an Palace where the Queen Mother lives.

Shangguanqing's eyes were cold. This old witch was so hateful. She wanted to cause trouble for her during the day. She was determined to retaliate, so she had to repay her no matter what.

Ning'an Palace has also fallen into silence for a long time. There are imperial guards guarding the outside. On both sides of the entrance to the dormitory, four eunuchs and four maids are keeping vigil.

After a burst of incense filled the air, both the eunuch and the maid fell down.

Shangguan Qing flew down to the door of the dormitory, opened the door and walked in.

The furnishings in the bedroom are extremely luxurious, with a luminous pearl placed there, emitting a faint light.

Shangguanqing lifted the gauze curtain and walked into the inner room, only to see the bed shaking slightly and a low gasping sound coming from the room.

There was a flash of sarcasm in her eyes. This old witch has been acting like a monster for a long time. She is ambitious and always wants to control the court. How can she secretly maintain a reputation? Do you think she is Wu Zetian?

"Mother, are you comfortable serving me?" A man's feminine voice came from the low-hanging tent.

"Xiao Wuzi, you are well done, you will be rewarded!" The Queen Mother's voice was charming and full of satisfaction.

"Thank you madam!"

Shangguanqing felt nauseated, what the hell! Tonight couldn't have come at a worse time.

Her shadow was reflected on the tent, and the two people who were jockeying about each other immediately separated from each other in shock.

"Who...ah!" The man was about to shout, but his neck had been cut off and he fell in a pool of blood in disbelief.

"Here comes..." The Queen Mother also wanted to shout at the same time, but her mouth was covered by a piece of cloth. When she saw Shangguanqing's face, her eyes widened in shock.

"Old witch, this is what will happen if you offend me, but I won't let you die now. I want you to watch the Lin family go to destruction step by step, and then be pissed to death."

The Queen Mother struggled desperately for a few times, then closed her eyes and stopped moving.

"Hmph!" Shangguanqing hummed, and took out a needle tube containing a light blue potion. It looked like it was not a good thing.

He raised his hand and stabbed it hard, injecting it into the Queen Mother's arm.

Old witch, from tonight on, even if you are the reincarnation of Wu Zetian, you must stay in bed and never get up again.

Just after the injection, I suddenly noticed someone coming in from outside the hall. Although the landing was silent, but from the calm and strong breath, they were all people with extremely strong martial arts.

"No! There are assassins!" someone whispered.

Shangguanqing ducked to the palace door and saw four men in black rushing in from outside. Judging from the way these people were dressed, they should be dead soldiers of the Lin family, who were specially designed to secretly protect the Queen Mother.

Seeing the scene on the bed, the four people were shocked and said, "Empress Dowager, please wake up quickly..."

Shangguanqing's lips curved into a sneer, he came out of the bedroom and flew up to the roof.

At this time, the dead soldiers also felt the aura of the stranger and hurriedly chased him out.

"Come on!"

Shangguanqing saw that these people could follow her scent and catch up with her, so she stopped running and held a short knife in her hand.

These people are the minions of the Lin family and they all deserve to be killed!

"There are assassins, catch the assassins!"

Suddenly there was a cry of arresting the assassin.

A dozen figures hurriedly rushed towards them in the darkness. It was Li Beimo who came with his guards and surrounded the four dead soldiers.

Shangguanqing was stunned, why did this man appear here?

Li Beimo pointed his sword and said in a cold voice, "Kill without mercy!"

"Yes!" More than a dozen guards swung their swords to kill him.

The sudden sound of fierce fighting immediately alerted the imperial guards.

"Catch the assassin!"

For a moment, the entire palace was boiling with excitement, and a large number of imperial guardsmen rushed towards this side holding torches.

Li Beimo didn't make a move, but looked in the direction where she was standing, "Hurry up and leave!"

Shangguanqing: "...?" This man actually noticed her aura?

When she arrived at Ning'an Palace, it only took three or four minutes from the time she entered to the time she came out. And if he could show up in such a timely manner, could it be that he had already been ambush here?

Then I saw those eunuchs and maids fainted and the palace door opened automatically?

"Ahhh——" Several screams echoed through the night sky.

The four dead men of the Lin family were hacked to death one after another by the guards of Prince Jing'an's Mansion.

Shangguanqing looked at him again and flew away.

Feeling her breath fade away, Li Beimo slightly raised the corners of his lips.

A secret technique! He is becoming more and more interested!

next morning.

The emperor came to court sick and announced a piece of bad news in front of all the officials with a sad look on his face.

An assassin sneaked into the palace last night and resisted arrest after being discovered by the Royal Guards.

During the roundup, several assassins broke into Ning'an Palace by mistake, hoping to use the Queen Mother to threaten the Royal Guards.

Fortunately, King Jing'an arrived in time and killed the five assassins on the spot. The Queen Mother was saved and her life was not in danger, but she was still unconscious due to excessive shock.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked.

"Impossible...how could such a thing happen?" Lin Jizong and Lin Yi and his son did not believe it.

The Queen Mother was protected by secret guards, and the entire Ning'an Palace belonged to her Lin family. How could she be easily caught by an assassin?

"Your Majesty, I am worried about the Queen Mother's body and want to visit Ning'an Palace." Lin Jizong begged.

"That's right." Emperor Jiahe nodded understandingly, "The Queen is still in a coma. I have to go over and have a look now. If there is any emergency, I will leave it to King Jing'an to handle it."

Eunuch Du immediately shouted: "Retreat from the court!"

Emperor Jiahe stood up and left through a side door.

Li Jinchuan's face turned green and white, and he couldn't calm down. He finally pulled Li Beimo down from the position of prince, thinking that his father would now pay attention to him as the eldest son of the emperor.

But why? Li Beimo is already an inhumane waste. His father is ill, so should he be given the important responsibilities in the court?

Thinking of the Queen Mother being assassinated and comatose, he felt vaguely uneasy.

The Queen Mother is the backbone of the Lin family and also his greatest reliance. They have already discussed and prepared to abolish the father and make him the new king. Don't let anything happen at this time!

*****

Ning'an Palace.

At Emperor Jiahe's order, the eunuchs and maids in Ning'an Palace were all executed with sticks for failing to protect their masters.

As soon as the Lin family father and son approached the Ning'an Palace, they heard the sound of wooden boards being slapped in the distance, combined with shrill screams.

Feeling bad, I quickened my pace and ran into Ning'an Palace. I saw the bloody corpses being carried out, and I almost fainted.

The people in Ning'an Palace were all confidants carefully cultivated by the Lin family, and they were just killed by the emperor's Quan Zang!

In the bedroom, the emperor and the empress were all there, and the imperial doctors were all kneeling in front of the bed.

The Queen Mother was lying on the bed, already awake.

He was conscious, but he seemed to have no bones in his body. He couldn't even lift his hands, and he couldn't speak in his mouth. He could only growl angrily, "Ah!"
