"Sister, I'm so glad you're okay!"

"That's right! I was so scared that my heart almost jumped out of my chest just now!"

"Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. When I return, I will pay my respects to the Bodhisattva and thank him for blessing the Empress!"

Seeing that Zhen Huan was fine, Concubine Jing and Jin Xi were both happy and scared, and kept wiping their tears with handkerchiefs.

Zhen Huan knew that the two of them must have been worried sick, so she said a few words to comfort them. After expressing her gratitude to Prince Guo again, the few of them, along with Princess Wen Yi, went to meet the Emperor.

Thinking back to the scene just now, Zhen Huan couldn't help but feel frightened.

While feeling sorry for Ye, he couldn't help but doubt Prince Guo's intentions:

When Zhen Huan mentioned Prince Guo just now, she clearly felt Ye's panic. Prince Guo could have taken this opportunity to have archers shoot Ye Lan'yi.

But why did he wait until the critical moment and shoot Ye Lanyi with his own hands?

Want to make her feel grateful?

Obviously not.

Could it be that Prince Guo really wanted to kill me at that time?

But doing so would be too risky, how could he dare?

While Zhen Huan was thinking this in her heart, Prince Guo did not stop thinking either.

After weighing the pros and cons, he knew clearly that he must not let anything happen to Zhen Huan in his hands, but for some reason, when Ye was about to take action, the desire to kill Zhen Huan was gradually devouring his sanity.

If it weren't for the fact that the Emperor valued Zhen Huan and was afraid that the big plan would be ruined, Prince Guo would not have really taken action!

Seeing Ye with tears in her eyes and a look of astonishment before her death, Prince Guo couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

He killed her with his own hands, and let her die so miserably!

An arrow pierced her forehead, and blood flowed all over her cheeks...

I wonder if Lan Yi would blame me before she dies?

But there is nothing I can do!

Who made her so stupid? She just started fighting and was caught by others time and time again!

If she was as patient as Hongmei, how could she have ended up like this!

In order to calm down, Prince Guo had no choice but to push all the problems onto Ye Lanyi. Only in this way could he feel better.

"Empress Xi, Your Majesty, please stay." Su Peisheng's humble voice sounded from behind.

Zhen Huan stopped and turned back: "Eunuch Su..."

Su Peisheng bowed, walked over quickly, and bowed to each of them:

"The Emperor is not at the Palace Banquet at this time, but has returned to the Yangxin Palace."

"So, I have specially asked this servant to come and tell the queen and the prince."

Prince Guo frowned, glanced at Zhen Huan and Concubine Jing, and made an expression that showed he understood the emperor very well:

"Yes, with such a big incident, I don't think my brother will be in the mood for a feast anymore."

"Your Highness is right. When Your Highness led his men and Concubine Xi to rescue Princess Wen Yi, the Emperor dismissed all the concubines and relatives from the palaces and ordered that this matter must not be spread to anyone."

"My Royal Brother has given it a lot of thought."

Prince Guo's eyes flickered:

"Has Mrs. Yu also gone back?"

"In reply to your Highness, the Emperor saw that Concubine Yu was very worried about you, so he kept her here."

"In addition, Concubine Mei is also serving the emperor in the Yangxin Palace."

Prince Guo glanced at Zhen Huan and said meaningfully:

"It seems that my brother really has a fondness for Concubine Mei!"

"So what are we waiting for?"

"My brother and Yujiao must be worried sick right now, let's go quickly!"

Zhen Huan understood the provocative meaning in Prince Guo's words, but she did not take it seriously.

She and Concubine Jing looked at each other, and Prince Chongguo nodded.

Su Peisheng felt relieved when he saw that Zhen Huan and the princess were safe and sound.

Then I saw the body covered with white cloth at the back, and I thought it must be Ye Lanyi without a doubt.

When Su Peisheng thought of the death order the emperor had just issued, that if the prince could not rescue Concubine Xi safely, he would be killed without mercy, he broke out in a cold sweat.

He was not worried about Prince Guo.

If Prince Guo has any rebellious intentions, it is only a matter of time before the Emperor punishes him!

The reason why we haven't taken action yet is simply because we have no conclusive evidence.

What Su Peisheng is really worried about is Zhen Huan. In addition to his recognition of Zhen Huan's character, he also has deep feelings for Jing Xi.

If something really happened to Concubine Xi, wouldn't Jinxi cry her heart out?

Arriving at the entrance of the Yangxin Palace, the imperial guards and archers behind Guo Jun Wang Chao took a look:

"You guys wait outside first. I, Concubine Xi, and Concubine Jing will go in and report to the emperor."

"You have helped me rescue the princess and Concubine Xi, and I will report your contribution to the emperor."

The Royal Guards and Archers were confused:

Our credit?

What have we contributed?

It was Concubine Xi who rescued the princess, and it was you, Your Majesty, who rescued Concubine Xi. We were just lying in ambush outside and didn't even have a chance to take action?

Although I thought so in my heart, who can refuse the reward? I would rather miss it!

The Royal Guards and archers couldn't help but feel grateful to Prince Guo, and they all bowed and said:

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Zhen Huan saw this scene, she didn't know how to express her feelings at the moment.

Prince Guo is really becoming more and more unrestrained, openly boosting morale at the gate of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity?

How come they all disappeared when we rescued them just now?

It seems that Prince Guo is deliberately on guard against me, afraid that I will tell the Emperor everything that happened today!

If I tell the emperor, he will only reward Prince Guo, but not his royal guards and archers, which will inevitably cause their dissatisfaction.

He was sure that after weighing the pros and cons, I would not tell him the truth?

But what does it matter whether he tells it or not? Anyway, the emperor has already suspected him, so it doesn't matter whether he tells it or not.

Since you are afraid that I will say bad things about you in front of the emperor, then I will just promote you!

Having experienced her previous life, Zhen Huan understood very well what the phrase "climbing high and falling hard" meant.

At the same time, Su Peisheng also lowered his head, occasionally glancing at the expression on Prince Guo's face out of the corner of his eyes.

Didn't the prince claim that he didn't like to get involved in politics? Why is it that he can't hide it now?

Thinking of this, a sneer flashed across Su Peisheng's eyes:

Presumably, apart from the imperial guards and archers, among the few people standing outside the palace, Prince Guo was the only one who thought that the emperor was completely unaware of his feelings?

Little did they know that he was the only one acting like a clown, jumping around, while others just saw through it but didn't say anything.

The noise outside was very loud, loud enough for the emperor sitting in the palace to hear the conversation clearly.

When the emperor heard that Prince Guo had boosted the morale of the soldiers, his hand that was twirling the Buddhist beads paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.

But in just a moment, the emperor's expression returned to normal.

"Su Peisheng, why don't you invite Brother Seventeen in!"

"It's the Emperor!"

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xi, Concubine Jing, please come in quickly. I'm sure the Emperor is getting a little anxious waiting."

I don’t know if I was really anxious or pretending to be anxious, but I wasn’t that happy anyway.
