Chapter 878: Assassins, no one is stupid
If it was possible, Imperial Concubine Zhou would not want to show up in person, and it would not do her any good to face Xiao Tianyao head-on, but… …
Besides her, who else in her palace was qualified to talk to Xiao Tianyao?
Unless she didn't want to get the words out of Xiao Tianyao's mouth, she had to come forward in person.
"Change me into brighter clothes." Imperial Concubine Zhou looked at the clothes on her body and frowned.
Even if it was just to inquire about news, Imperial Concubine Zhou still felt timid at the thought of facing Xiao Tianyao head-on. To increase her confidence, Imperial Concubine Zhou wanted to change into a gorgeous dress, to overwhelm Xiao Tianyao in terms of momentum.
The palace maids and eunuchs knew what Imperial Concubine Zhou was thinking, and immediately found a set of purple palace clothes for Imperial Concubine Zhou to wear.
It was just that this tossing took an entire hour. When the Empress received the news, she almost couldn't control her mouth: "Stupid woman, what else does she have besides her face?"
It was just a chat, to disturb Xiao Tianyao's good business, but she wanted to change clothes. It was nothing to change clothes, but that stupid woman spent an hour changing clothes, it was simply… …
"Is Xiao Wangye still outside the Abandoned Palace Courtyard?" The Empress asked while holding back her anger.
"Yes, Xiao Wangye hasn't left, and there were more guards outside than before." The little eunuch said quickly.
"Fortunately, Xiao Wangye hasn't left yet, otherwise I would have the heart to kill her." The Empress's face turned pale, and the murderous look in her eyes also faded a lot.
"Go, send someone to watch, and act cheaply when necessary." This was where the Empress was smarter than Concubine Zhou. Even if she wanted to find out why Xiao Tianyao stayed outside the abandoned courtyard, she would not come forward in person.
"Yes, your majesty." The little eunuch bowed and stepped back.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Seventh Prince sat by the side and did not speak until the little eunuch went down. Then he stepped forward and said: "Imperial Mother, let me go and take a look. I'm afraid the people below will not dare to do anything to Imperial Uncle Xiao."
Prince Xiao was guarding the abandoned courtyard, there must be something important inside, and it was impossible to know what Prince Xiao was hiding inside without using force.
"The current situation is not good for us. Don't come forward as much as you can. No matter what happens in private, I don't want to tear my face with him in public." The Empress refused without thinking.
Although she helped Prince Xiao in this coup, she was able to gain a foothold in the previous dynasty only because of Prince Xiao. She and Xiao Tianyao were fine fightings in private, but it would be even more difficult for her to fight in public.
She will never tear her face from Prince Xiao.
"However, Imperial Uncle Xiao has a ghost today. If we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult for us to find his fault in the future." The Seventh Prince said unwillingly.
Being kidnapped and threatened by the crown prince was a shame in his life, and he will never let go of the mastermind behind the scenes.
"It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, Little Seven, don't rush into everything." She knew her very well. So she knew what the Seventh Prince thought when he opened his mouth.
She was also angry about being put together by the Crown Prince, but now was not a good time for revenge.
"Imperial Mother…" The Seventh Prince looked dissatisfied.
Although he was calm, he was still a child, especially in front of his mother.
"Little Seven, don't let me down." The Empress looked at the Seventh Prince with indifferent eyes, implicitly disappointed.
The Seventh Prince was startled, quickly restrained his emotions, bowed his head, and admitted his mistake: "Mother, I was wrong."
The Empress didn't speak, but just took a deep look at the Seventh Prince, and then closed her eyes… …
It took Imperial Concubine Zhou one hour to change her clothes, but before going out, she felt that there were too few servants around her, and she felt insecure, so she insisted on asking the guards to escort her there.
After a lot of tossing, another half hour was wasted, and it was two hours later when Imperial Concubine Zhou brought people outside the abandoned hall.
However, Imperial Concubine Zhou was blocked by the guards before she approached the abandoned courtyard: "Stop! Xiao Wangye has an order that no one is allowed to approach the Hanfang Hall."
"Bold, when and where should I go, do I still need Xiao Wangye's permission?" Although Imperial Concubine Zhou was afraid of Xiao Tianyao, it didn't mean that she would take Xiao Tianyao's subordinates seriously.
"Not today!" Imperial Concubine Zhou's aura was not weak, but the guards didn't give him any face.
"Hmph… What if I enter Hanfang Palace today?" Imperial Concubine Zhou took a step forward with a sullen face. The guard was afraid that the knife in his hand would hurt Imperial Concubine Zhou, so he hurriedly took a step back. This retreat gave Imperial Concubine Zhou confidence: "Today, I must go to Hanfang Palace, I will see if any of you dare to stop me."
"Imperial Concubine, please stop, otherwise don't blame us for being rude." The guards didn't dare to hurt Imperial Concubine Zhou. This was the palace after all. If they hurt Imperial Concubine Zhou, there was no guarantee that no one will make trouble by doing so.
"Should I thank you? I want to see, why are you being rude to me?" Seeing that the guards dared not do anything, Imperial Concubine Zhou became even more arrogant, leading her people forward step by step.
"Stop them!" Seeing this, the guards outside the temple had no choice but to order a shot.
"You dare!" Imperial Concubine Zhou shouted before the guards started.
"Imperial concubine, you can see if we dare." There were still more than ten meters away from Hanfang Hall, and the guards dare not take half a step back this time.
It was very troublesome to hurt the imperial concubine, but it will be even more troublesome for people to enter the Hanfang Palace.
"How dare you hurt me?" Imperial Concubine Zhou took a step forward in disbelief, but this time the guards would rather hurt her than back down.
"I offended Imperial Concubine Zhou." The guard glanced at the blood on the sword, his expression unchanged.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You…" Imperial Concubine Zhou's face darkened, but just when the guards thought she would get angry, Imperial Concubine Zhou suddenly slammed into the sword.
"Imperial concubine, be careful!" The guard was startled and backed away again and again, but… …
Imperial Concubine Zhou made up her mind to injure herself this time. The guard retreated quickly, and she rushed forward even faster. No matter how careful the guard was, the blade still scratched her arm.
Oops!
The guards had a bad feeling. Sure enough, as soon as Imperial Concubine Zhou was injured, she shouted at the top of her voice: "Ah… Assassin, there are assassins, come quickly, there are assassins!"
If the Empress wants to use her, it depends on whether she was willing or not.
Hmph, she thought she was an idiot, and don't know what her weight was.
The people brought by Imperial Concubine Zhou were all confidantes. Seeing Imperial Concubine Zhou's actions, they also shouted: "Someone, someone comes, the concubine is injured. Someone come, the concubine has been assassinated…"
The Empress's people have been hiding in the dark. Hearing the movement outside Hanfang Hall, the Empress's people knew that the opportunity had come.
"Do it!" Following the order from the person in the dark, nearly a hundred guards suddenly poured into the Hanfang Hall, which even patrolling guards would not pass by.
"Hurry up, protect the imperial concubine… …"
"Imperial Concubine, where is the assassin?"
"Quick, take down the assassin."
After playing a full set, the Empress's people came in, they didn't rush into the Hanfang Palace, but put on a posture to catch the assassin.
"Where is the assassin? He ran into Hanfang Hall, these people are the assassin's accomplices." Imperial Concubine Zhou said pretending to be terrified while holding her injured arm.
"Imperial Concubine, we are the ones who hurt you. There are no assassins in Hanfang Palace." The guards would not recognize the nonsense of Imperial Concubine Zhou, but the Empress's people didn't intend to listen at all, relying on a large number of people, they raised their knives and forced to go forward: " If there are any assassins, let us find out."
As long as they enter Hanfang Hall, they have to don’t worry about the absence of assassins… …
