Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

Chapter 218 The Emperor's Assassination

The three words "Huan Le Ju" were written on the door of Ran Qianxi's house. In front of the brown-red door stood two stone civet cats, which were specially made by Xiahou Chen and the craftsmen.

The pavilion in the house has a purple gauze roof and is surrounded by water. The lotus and koi in the artificial lake are all hidden, and there is only a snowman that was newly built last night.

The cats no longer stay in their cat nests to keep warm, but gather in groups in the pavilion to wash their fur.

Tan Qianhuan was waiting anxiously and felt very uncomfortable, so he just waited in the pavilion!

It was unknown how long it took before Ran Qianxi came back by herself. Seeing him waiting in the pavilion, she walked back to the room without paying any attention.

Tan Qianhuan followed anxiously, and Ran Qianxi obviously did not resist. She held her wrist and did not push her away.

"Is something wrong?"

"You've entered the palace? Baili Yong wants to marry you, right?"

Ran Qianxi turned her head and pushed his hands away. Even if Baili Yong knelt down and begged her, she would never enter the palace again in this life.

"Don't worry, I won't go into the palace and let you harm my child again."

"Xi'er."

"Oh, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"I was wrong. I didn't know how to treat you well at that time. I just wanted you to be mine."

Ran Qianxi sighed deeply. After they talked it out, she didn't seem to feel so heavy in her heart anymore.

"It's nothing. It's all in the past. We just need to keep our distance in this life."

Tan Qianhuan pondered for a moment, then turned and left the yard.

In the evening, Qi Shuang ran over anxiously and knocked hard on the door of Huanleju.

After a while, Sui Xue took him straight to Ran Qianxi's boudoir. She had already made love with Si Kongqian and was tidying up her pajamas.

"Second Miss, the King of Jibei was assassinated."

Ran Qianxi's pupils dilated instantly, and she opened the door regardless of who was on the bed.

"What did you say?"

Sui Xue entered the room, picked up her coat, put it on her and said, "Guard Qi sent me a message. I don't know what happened. Please go and take a look."

Ran Qianxi left Sikong Qian and ran straight to Jibei Palace. The cold wind outside the room blew on him, and his heart felt like it had fallen into an ice cave.

The lights in the Jibei Palace were on, and it was obvious that no one was sleeping well. Ran Qianxi was wearing a cloak that Sui Xue had picked up, which was the silver-white battle robe with the dragon on it.

She stood anxiously outside the door. Several doctors were replaced in and out, and waves of blood were brought out in and out.

There was no sound in the room, not even Tan Qianhuan's cry of pain; he had already fainted.

For some reason, Ran Qianxi felt a little uneasy at this moment, as if she was worried that something might happen to the other party.

"Tsk, this is like accompanying a baby in childbirth, why are my hands shaking?"

I don’t know how much time had passed, but I could hear the crowing of cocks, but the doctors were still coming and going.

"Fuck it, never mind."

Ran Qianxi pushed everyone away and ran into the room. Tan Qianhuan, lying on the bed, had a pale face and his pale and dry lips looked like a lamp with run out of oil.

"Is he dying?"

The palace doctor knelt on the ground, somewhat frightened.

"Second Miss, the prince's injuries are too severe, and we are also doing our best to treat him."

If he had not used up his luck in exchange for the reversal of time and space, he could have escaped unscathed even if a hundred killers came with knives. Because of this, fate took the price he paid.

"He could fight off kidnappers with a tree branch and pierce a lamp post with a brush. How could he be so unlucky to be stabbed by an unknown killer?"

Ran Qianxi murmured to herself, feeling a little ridiculous.

Ran Qianxi: "How many days can he last like this?"

Doctor: "If all our doctors try their best to treat the patient, maybe we can still hold out for five days."

"what?"

Ran Qianxi pondered for a moment, then turned and left the room.

"You try your best to keep him alive, I'll go get some help."

King's Palace

Baili Yong's mood today was ten times better than usual. He did not fall asleep until the early morning and painted Ran Qianxi's portrait with great interest.

"Your Majesty, it's time to rest."

Baili Yong glanced at Sun Long and continued to paint with his head down.

"I'm not sleepy. I'm in a good mood."

He put down the last stroke, and Sun Long reluctantly left the palace. Yun Shuang walked out from the side hall.

"Your Majesty is in a good mood."

Baili Yong glanced at him and laughed out loud, but his tone was very gloomy.

"Hahahaha, thanks to the Third Prince."

Baili Yong knew that the relationship between Nanyue and Luoyu was tense and Shi Zhun intended to annex them. He threw out a bait to lure Tan Qianhuan to kill him, so as to fulfill his conditions after the success.

In the previous life, there was the "friendship of gentlemen" between Tan Qianhuan and Yun Shuang, and in this life, there is the "harmony" between Baili Yong and him. No matter whether they are emperors or powerful kings, if they want to conquer the world, they are all jackals in human skin.

"Life and death are determined by fate, and plans are made by heaven. I will never fail to achieve my goal. No matter what happens in the future, Your Majesty, please do not forget the solidarity between our two countries."

The situation in the Jibei Palace is not optimistic. Tan Qianhuan is bleeding profusely because of the strange poison. Baili Yong is actually more ruthless than him and leaves no room for him.

Ran Qianxi rode his horse at full speed in the middle of the night. He did not have time to ask for approval for the documents to leave the city, so his dragon robe became his pass.

She kept going all the way without stopping. The news of leaving the city had not yet reached Baili Yong's ears, and the city gates had not been closed in time.

Two days later, when she was about to enter Johor, the guards received an order to intercept her.

"You can't enter the city without a document."

Ran Qianxi was acting like a bitch, but she actually hated getting herself into trouble the most. However, thinking of repaying the favor of Tan Qianhuan who had sent people to protect her along the way, she had no choice but to force her way in.

"Smooth-eyed, tell your brothers to stay awake."

Shunyan crawled out in a daze. Due to the weather, this summoning was obviously slower than before. About half a minute later, dense swarms of poisonous insects appeared one after another, clearing a path for her.

It was already midnight when they arrived at Hongfeng Island. Ran Qianxi knocked hard on the gate, and Han Wu walked out, trapped in his body.

"coming."

The moment he opened the yard, Han Wu saw a beautiful woman who was in a dishevel and broken state, looking at him tenderly and pleadingly, and his heart suddenly surged.

"Can you help me save someone?"

He swallowed nervously, not knowing how to face his friend's wife who was kissing him.

"who?"

"A friend of mine from a long time ago was stabbed and bled profusely. The doctor said he could only survive for five days."

"Then where is he?"

Ran Qianxi took a step towards him with some shame. This person was thousands of miles away.

"He is in the Imperial City. Can you ride back with me?"

Han Wu looked at her nervous expression and seemed to understand the importance of this friend to her. He sighed and agreed to her request.

"Then let's go now."

Ran Qianxi nodded in ecstasy.

"Okay, okay, I have a horse, I'll take you there."

Han Wu picked up the medicine box and jumped on the horse, galloping at such a fast speed that he almost fell off the horse. Looking at the slender waist in front of him, he hesitated for a moment and then hugged it.

"Hold on tight, I'm an excellent rider."

"it is good."

After riding fast for two days and two nights, Ran Qianxi was exhausted. She knew that if she continued like this, she would be the first to collapse, but she felt an indescribable anxiety in her heart.

The two of them rested at the post station, and Han Wu asked tentatively: "Is he important to you?"

"It's not that important. I just wanted to return a favor to him."

"So that's how it is. Then we'll rest here tonight and continue our journey tomorrow."

"It's the only way... I feel like I'm going to pass out..."

As soon as Ran Qianxi finished speaking, she fell asleep and was quickly dragged by Han Wu and carried into the guest room.
