Tuoba Xuan knew how difficult it was to cause trouble in the Lan Yin Palace.

If he had not given up his face and dignity, disguised himself as a woman, and spent a huge amount of money, he would not even be able to enter the door of Lan Yin Palace.

If Lin Jiuqing said a few more words and the secret guards noticed something was wrong, he would be unable to escape today.

Tuoba Xuan moved the sword forward an inch, and the tip of the sword landed on Xiao Bai's neck. He said in a cold voice: "Empress Chen, do you want to change it or not? Give me an answer."

Lin Jiuqing was startled by his action and said quickly: "Don't move, don't hurt it, I will switch with you."

Lin Jiuqing didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He glanced at Xiaobai lying on the ground and walked slowly forward.

Just as she was about to reach Tuoba Xuan, the little palace maid who had gone to the imperial kitchen to serve cakes to Lin Jiuqing came back. She saw a man holding a long sword and immediately turned pale. She subconsciously yelled, "Who are you, and why are you pointing a sword at our queen?"

The little palace maid's voice was shrill, and she raised the volume because of fear. The sound of her voice could be heard from far away, and the faces of the two parties involved changed immediately.

Tuoba Xuan's eyes were grim, and he immediately turned the tip of his sword and stabbed it towards Lin Jiuqing. He was determined to catch Lin Jiuqing in his hands today.

Who would have thought that Lin Jiuqing’s first thought was not to escape, but to lower his body and pounce towards Xiaobai on the ground.

It was this bending that caused the sword in Tuoba Xuan's hand to pierce into the air. Tuoba Xuan's face darkened, and the long sword in his hand immediately changed direction, but it was a little too late, and it pierced Lin Jiuqing's arm.

Lin Jiuqing groaned and fell to the ground. He picked up Xiaobai and rolled forward, immediately more than a meter away from Tuoba Xuan.

In just a split second, the secret guards in Lan Yin Palace were alarmed, and more than a dozen people rushed up from all directions. Half of them surrounded Lin Jiuqing in the middle, and the other half attacked Tuoba Xuan.

Suddenly, there was a fight in Lan Yin Hall. Amid the flashing of swords and shadows, someone's muffled groan could be heard.

Yingyue also rushed over at this time, rushed to Lin Jiuqing with a pale face, and said in a trembling voice: "My queen, are you okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Lin Jiuqing's arm, which was covered in blood, staining half of Lin Jiuqing's sleeve red. Yingyue took a breath and her hands began to tremble.

Lin Jiuqing held Xiaobai steadily, his face showing no signs of abnormality except that it was a little pale. He said to the stunned Yingyue in a deep voice, "Quick, get the doctor to come quickly. Xiaobai is injured."

Yingyue: "Xiaobai is injured... No, Madam, your injury..."

"I'm fine," Lin Jiuqing said anxiously, "I only have superficial injuries, which won't endanger my life, but Xiaobai is different. We can't delay any longer, go and get the imperial physician."

Yingyue was stunned for a moment by Lin Jiuqing's shouting, and immediately turned around and ran out, but after running a few steps, she turned back and looked at Lin Jiuqing: "Madam, here..."

"You are not needed here," Lin Jiuqing said in a deep voice, "Go quickly and come back soon."

Yingyue glanced at the secret guards, without hesitation, turned around and ran out.

Lin Jiuqing swayed, took a few steps back, and sat down on a stool in the yard. His face looked a little better. The secret guard next to him wanted to help Lin Jiuqing hold Xiaobai, but Lin Jiuqing raised his hand to refuse. Xiaobai didn't allow others to hold it. It only wanted to be held by itself.
