"hiss--"

Rong Sheng was frightened when he saw that Concubine Wei had woken up.

She kowtowed and fell to the ground: "Please forgive me, Concubine Wei. I did not mean to offend you!"

"Oh, no offense."

Concubine Wei now looked normal as she slowly took out a handkerchief and wiped the white foam from the corners of her lips.

Then he straightened his clothes and stood up gracefully.

She saw that although Rong Sheng was not as burly as the other group, he was also dressed in black, so she asked coldly, "You were hiding on the roof just now. Did you think I didn't know?"

"Hey?"

Rong Sheng's eyebrows twitched unexpectedly.

She wondered if Concubine Wei had already discovered her a long time ago?

She was stunned for a moment and then said, "Reporting to Madam Wei, I don't want to hide."

Before she finished her words, she hurriedly took out the jade pendant that Song Xuanlin had given her from her arms.

"I am here in secret on the orders of the King to deliver a message to the Queen."

Rong Sheng said respectfully, his eyes full of sincerity: "It's just that when I came here, I found the group of men in black, so I hid on the roof to see what their intentions were."

The moment Concubine Wei saw the jade pendant, her eyes instantly softened.

She stretched out her slender hand and took the jade pendant.

Then rub it slowly in your palm.

This smooth feel, fine texture...

It is indeed Xuanlin’s jade pendant.

Concubine Wei looked at Rong Sheng again, and the vigilance in her eyes diminished by three points.

"Were you really sent by Xuanlin?"

"It's absolutely true, Your Majesty!" Rong Sheng said firmly, "The prince was indeed forced off the cliff by the prince's men yesterday. Fortunately, he is fine now."

"It turns out that Xuanlin really fell off the cliff."

Concubine Wei immediately clenched her fists and clenched her teeth.

This prince was too bullying and had been trying to assassinate Xuan Lin all the way from the Southern Region to the capital.

Now that the Emperor's birthday banquet is approaching, he not only refuses to give up, but even wants to take his own life as well.

She sensed something was wrong the moment that group of people entered the meditation room.

First of all, the voice and appearance of the leader of the men in black are very similar to Lu Yue.

However, Lu Yue grew up with Xuan Lin, so even if the difference is slight, she can tell the real from the fake at once.

Secondly, although the jade pendant presented by the man in black was almost broken into powder, she could still tell that it was not the one Xuan Lin had worn since childhood.

She has been in the palace for many years and has always taken virtue as the criterion for dealing with people.

But being kind to others does not mean allowing yourself to be bullied.

Even if the Queen tried many times to poison her to cause her heart disease, or instigated other concubines to ignore her.

She can easily see through and resolve them.

Concubine Wei thought back to the bloody events in the harem over the years, and her heart began to sink.

Now that Yuan Yi is growing up, he needs to be more careful and must not let these treacherous villains take advantage of him.

Retracting her thoughts, Concubine Wei looked again at Rong Sheng who was kneeling quietly on the ground.

"I understand. Please stand up."

After hearing this, Rong Sheng finally got up from the ground.

Realizing that Concubine Wei was not on guard against her like before, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I have one more thing to tell you, Your Majesty." Rong Sheng continued, "The Crown Prince now thinks that the prince fell off a cliff and died, so the prince will take advantage of the situation and will not return to the capital in the near future."

"Then this child won't go to the emperor's birthday party either?"

Concubine Wei frowned slightly.

Xuanlin has been filial since he was young. He would never miss his father's birthday banquet. Could it be that he has any concerns this year?

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince is watching closely and there might be trouble at this birthday banquet, so he will stay in the dark until the banquet is over."

"The prince also asked me to tell you that for your own safety, I advise you to excuse yourself from attending the event."

Rong Sheng said this calmly, but his heart was beating like a drum.

Because this last sentence was actually his instructions to Concubine Wei.

Prince Jing'an will definitely rebel at the birthday banquet this time, and Yan Huanshan's group will be in unpredictable danger.

Concubine Wei is gentle and virtuous. She is the master's sister and the person he needs to protect.

"This kid."

But Concubine Wei shook her head after hearing this: "She's good in every way, except that she's always been concerned about other people, but never worried about her own life."

"Tell Xuanlin that I know how to avoid danger. Tell him not to worry and focus on taking care of himself."

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will definitely bring her here." Rong Sheng saw that Concubine Wei had listened to him, so he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rong Sheng immediately stepped back, then turned around gracefully when he reached the door.

"Wait a moment."

Before Rong Sheng could take a step forward, Concubine Wei called him back.

"I didn't have time to ask just now," Concubine Wei slowly walked towards the door, "What's your name?"

Oh my god——

It’s already this late, I don’t need to bother thinking of a name anymore.

Rong Sheng suddenly felt a sharp pain in his temple.

But Concubine Wei did not notice Rong Sheng's emotional breakdown.

At this moment, she had already walked lightly behind Rong Sheng.

"Turn around..."

Concubine Wei's gentle voice sounded again.

Rong Sheng turned around, nodded and saluted, "I wonder if Madam Wei has anything else to say?"

"Are you also Xuanlin's guard?"

"Uh, yes... yes, your Majesty." Rong Sheng replied awkwardly.

Concubine Wei looked at Rong Sheng, who was just as tall as her chin, and her clear eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.

"There are actually female guards in Xuanlin's mansion. How come I don't know about this?"

Hey?

Rong Sheng listened to Concubine Wei's fleeting words, and his head, which had been buried deep in his chest, trembled for a moment.

When did the queen discover that she was a woman?

She couldn't help but sigh that Concubine Wei was truly an extraordinary woman. In front of her, it seemed as if nothing in the world could escape her gaze.

Ugh--

Since you'll be exposed anyway, why not just stop telling lies!

Rong Sheng made up his mind and tore off the black veil on his face.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty," she said as she knelt down, "I am not actually your guard."

"Oh?"

Concubine Wei smiled and said, "Who are you then?"

"Your Majesty, to be honest," Rong Sheng said in a deep voice, "I am actually Princess Yong'an now."

"Princess Yong'an?!"
