The cat stared blankly at the spot, but it didn't take long for her to realize something was wrong—this is the East Palace, and it's not like the Chu family can come in casually, even if Chu Jingmo wants to "golden house hides the beauty", Apart from the palace full of people, there was obviously no one to hide.

So, who is this woman in Chu Jing's ink room at this moment?

The cat who came back to his senses suddenly became serious. After all, Lanyue Pavilion is also her place. If there is anything wrong, it is likely to implicate her.

Climbing up to the window sill with all fours, Chu Yi didn't rush in, but sat on the window sill and carefully observed the movement in the room.And after seeing this, she quickly discovered the clue.

There were only a few candles lit in the room, and it was not as brightly lit as Chu Yi's bedroom.However, the cat's sight was not too affected by the light, so Chu Yi easily saw the wound on the woman's body, as well as the wound medicine and gauze that Chu Jingmo was holding.There was a "thud" in her heart, and when she saw the black clothes that had been taken off on the ground, Her Majesty the Empress was already furious.

A few days ago, the crown prince was assassinated and the East Palace was under martial law. Zhang Dai said that all the assassins had been killed or taken down, but she didn't take it seriously.Unexpectedly, in her Linzhi Hall, which is so close to Chonghua Hall, there is a fish that slipped through the net!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not shown up these days, although the tense atmosphere in the palace has gradually eased, Chu Yi guessed in his heart that the Crown Prince should be fine.But even so, she didn't have the slightest liking for these assassins who came to assassinate her emperor's brother. Looking at that assassin at this moment, she also had a heart of wanting to get rid of them quickly.

The cat cub pushed open the window angrily, and jumped into the room.

Chu Jingmo was changing Twelve's dressing, and both of them were startled by the movement, and Twelve even made an attacking gesture in an instant.However, when they looked back, they found that it was just a black cat cub, barging in aggressively.

Twelve frowned, always feeling that this cat gave people a strange feeling.In other words, when she looked at people with sharp eyes, she didn't look like a cat, on the contrary, she wanted to be a person in a high position.

Seeing that it was Xiao Hei who broke in, Chu Jingmo heaved a long sigh of relief.She had also seen Cheng Zian get along with this cat, and knew that the cat could understand and understand human nature, so she said, "Xiao Hei, why are you here?"

"Meow—" the cat cub let out a growl, and his black fur exploded with excitement.If it wasn't for her being speechless at the moment, she would definitely have to question why Chu Jingmo wanted to "betray" her and take in an assassin.

For a moment, Chu Yi even conspired to think, does Chu Jingmo have anything to do with the mastermind behind the scenes?She took care of the assassin who assassinated the prince. As a medical officer, it was easy for her to attack her. Did Xu Ze even have a problem?

Chu Jingmo didn't know that Mao Zai'er thought so much at that moment. She put down the wound medicine and gauze in her hand, walked forward and closed the wide open window again, and then walked to Mao Zai'er and squatted down.She wanted to reach out and touch the cat's head, but Xiao Hei avoided it mercilessly, and she didn't just tilt her head like she did when she was hiding from Zou Ying, but turned around and walked half a foot away, looking at him coldly. she.

For some reason, Chu Jingmo felt that the eyes of the black cat were a bit piercing, and it was not at all as arrogant and cute as it was when it was nestled in Cheng Zian's arms.She pursed her lips and explained: "Xiao Hei? A Jie won't be here until tomorrow. He entrusted you to me to take care of you for one night. You can see him tomorrow."

Hearing Cheng Zian's name, Mao Zai'er's eyes softened obviously - even if Chu Jingmo really had a problem, she believed that at least Cheng Zian was trustworthy.

"This black cat is a bit weird." Twelve Rare spoke up, and she frowned at the cat.

Chu Jingmo didn't care much about this, because Zuo Zuo was not her cat, and she was just entrusted to take care of her for one night.But when she caught a glimpse of a knife in Twelve's hand, she was startled: "What are you going to do?"

As early as the first day after Twelve fainted, she had already taken away all the dangerous items on her body, and she didn't expect to hide a knife for her.Chu Jingmo didn't feel that he was too careless until now, and he also felt a little scared in his heart.

Seeing the defense in her eyes, Twelve pursed her lips and said nothing, but with a twist of her wrist, she received the knife somewhere.

The silence lasted for a while, and Twelve finally said: "You saved me, I didn't mean to hurt you."

Chu Jingmo stood on the spot and didn't get any closer. She clenched her hands tightly. After a while, she said, "Your injury has healed a lot, and the guards in the East Palace are not as strict as they were a few days ago. You, let's go." .”

In fact, Chu Jingmo has been worrying about this matter these days. She only left the assassin after listening to Zhang Dai's words and softening her heart for a while.But she also realized something was wrong afterwards, not to mention whether the assassin was a Zhongshan wolf, after she rescued her, there was nowhere to place her. There are a fixed number of palace guards and guards in the palace, how can someone appear out of thin air?

Perhaps it would be the best result if she could leave without anyone noticing as she did when she came here?Chu Jingmo sometimes thinks this way, but she has never said it out until today.

Chu Yi sat at the side, with the tip of his tail twitching, and his cat ears were erected, ready to listen to the inside story.

Not to mention, sometimes being a cat has its benefits. At least others will not be on guard against her. That's why she knows so many secrets that others don't.For example, Cheng Zian likes Chu Jingmo, or her General Zhenxi is actually a woman, or her dedicated medical officer actually hides an assassin in her room...

Hearing that Chu Jingmo wanted to drive her away, Twelve was a little dazed. She looked up at Chu Jingmo, without the sharpness of an assassin in her eyes: "I don't know where to go."

"..." Chu Jingmo felt a little dizzy, and there was always a sense of uncertainty that she was going to be relied on. She frowned and said, "Go back wherever you came from! Don't tell me that you don't know how to get out of the palace, I will do not know either."

When the cat heard this, her eyes lit up—if she could find a way to pass out now, after becoming the princess again, she could find a way to arrange people to come over and look at Lanyue Pavilion, and then follow the assassin all the way when he left.At that time, will we be able to follow the clues to find out the clues?Or, with better luck, directly catch the mastermind behind the scenes?

Unexpectedly, Twelve shook her head when she heard the words, and the blankness in her eyes was replaced by firmness: "No, I won't go back." She paused, and then said: "The people who came this time, except me It should all be folded, so I don’t have to go back.”

"..." It seems that this is really going to depend on it? !

Chu Jingmo had a headache and didn't know what to do with this assassin.She is a doctor who has no strength to restrain a chicken, and it is impossible for her to lift someone up and throw her out.As for calling the guards, it was obviously unrealistic after the first day. Doing so would not only ask for trouble, but also implicate her family.

"Can I stay?" Twelve asked tentatively.

Chu Jingmo shook his head firmly: "No. This is the palace, and I'm just a medical officer. There is no way to arrange you."

The room fell into silence again. The kitten yawned and lay down lazily, resting its head on its overlapping front legs, but still staring at the two with its cat eyes.Anyway, she planned to send someone to watch Lanyue Pavilion after waking up, and it was impossible for this assassin to stay here forever.

Just when Chu Yi thought that the secrets he had heard tonight were over, he heard Chu Jingmo suddenly ask: "Since you are not going back, let me ask a question, can you answer me?"

Twelve nodded without the slightest hesitation: "Say it."

"Who is behind the assassination of the prince?" Chu Jingmo stared at Twelve with burning eyes, and Chu Yi also raised his head when he heard the words, and followed him.One person, one cat, and two pairs of eyes stared at her, as if they wanted to get some clues from her face.

"I don't know." Twelve's expression was very calm, she looked at Chu Jingmo calmly: "We never need to know why we kill people, we just need to obey orders."

"Meow—" If you don't know anything, what do you need? !

Mao Zai'er let out a cry of embarrassment, and finally understood what Zhang Dai said, why those assassins could still keep their mouths shut under torture.It's just because they don't know it themselves.

At this moment, no one paid attention to a cat, and Chu Jingmo was a little disappointed when he heard that.Although she has no friendship with the crown prince, the gentleness and politeness of that highness also makes people feel good.She saved the person who assassinated him, and she was not without guilt in her heart. She wanted to do something to make up for it at this moment, but unfortunately she couldn't ask anything in the end.

As if seeing the disappointment in Chu Jingmo's eyes, Twelve hesitated for a moment, but still felt that she should say something: "You don't have to care about these, our assassination didn't succeed this time." She paused and added another sentence : "At least when I fled, the prince was still unscathed."

Several days have passed since the prince was assassinated, but his injuries are still a mystery.The old emperor did not give an explanation to the officials, and the news was tightly sealed in the Chonghua Palace and the Imperial Hospital. Even Xu Ze never revealed a word to Chu Jingmo.

Hearing this at first, both Chu Jingmo and Chu Yi were startled, they had all seen His Highness the crown prince's weakness after being assassinated.Could it be that he was pretending to look pale and lack of energy?

Chu Jingmo didn't think about it deeply, she didn't want to think about the right and wrong of the royal family and dared not delve into it.But after hearing Twelve's convincing words, she also secretly heaved a sigh of relief, at least she felt better.

After Chu Yi was shocked, he limply fell back on his paws.Only this time, she didn't look at the two of them anymore, but stared fixedly at the floor in front of her, not knowing what to think.
