Ling Xiao and the others were about to start chasing after him, but Luo Nianxi stopped them.

"return……"

After they were stunned for a moment, they stopped.

Ling Yun waved the sword in his hand excitedly.

"How did the emperor know that Prince Yan's mansion would be attacked? He arrived just in time..."

Jiang Hai glanced towards the front yard and saw that the servants were all guarding the corridor. He could not help but remind them,

"Go outside and tell the people outside that these people have retreated."

It turned out that the sound Luo Nianxi made just now was believed not only by the men in black, but by everyone present.

Luo Nianxi smiled bitterly to herself, took out a pack of hemostatic medicine from her pocket and threw it into Jiang Hai's hand.

"Go back and apply medicine, don't get infected."

Then, she instructed Ling Xiao and others:

"Increase your vigilance tonight, and report to the emperor tomorrow morning that there is an assassin in Prince Yan's mansion."

"Doesn't the Emperor already know about this?"

"Do as I say."

There was a faint smile on her lips. After leaving this sentence, she turned around and went back to the house.

No matter how curious the people outside were about the sound of thousands of horses galloping, she didn't want to explain too much because she couldn't explain it clearly.

Since it cannot be explained, let's leave everyone in suspense!

After returning to the room, she used her mind to put the phone back on her desk and walked towards Leng Yiyan's bed.

Before she even got closer, Leng Yiyan couldn't wait to ask,

"How about it?"

"The assassin has retreated. Jiang Hai suffered some minor injuries. The rest are fine."

Leng Yiyan snorted coldly.

"The people in Prince Yan's Mansion are not easy to mess with..."

She did not expose him, but nodded in agreement.

"Yes, but this matter must be reported to the Emperor, and he should send someone else to protect you. Your four guards are human beings, and they need to rest."

Her words made him feel ashamed.

Ever since he got sick, everyone left him, and only these four guards continued to take care of him wholeheartedly as before. However, he never asked them if their bodies could bear working day and night like this, and he never cared if they had any difficulties in life.

He had nothing to say except scolding them.

And the four of them have been working hard without any complaints.

However, the Prince Yan's Mansion has been silent for three months. Why did an assassin suddenly come today?

Thinking of this, he suddenly looked at her coldly.

"Who are you?"

This question made Luo Nianxi's brows tighten instantly.

"My name is Luo Nianxi, the eldest daughter of Luo Yuanjian, the current third-rank imperial doctor. Your wife, Princess Yan, is this enough?"

Leng Yiyan looked at her with angry eyes.

"You're lying to me. These assassins are related to you, right?"

"What did you say?"

"I said, these assassins are related to you. You attracted them, right?"

His voice suddenly became hysterical.

"No one has visited Prince Yan's Mansion for three months. Since you came, Leng Yixing came, Leng Yicheng came, and the assassin also came. Are you still saying that these have nothing to do with you?"

His words made her feel both amused and helpless.

She just took him around the mansion to prove that he was still alive, and attracted these assassins. How could she be blamed for this? Shouldn't he be blamed for getting in the way of someone else?

But he was doubting her now? This was totally unreasonable.

She looked at him angrily and nodded continuously.

"Okay, Leng Yiyan, you suspect me, right? Well, my kindness these past two days has all been wasted. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the palace and ask the emperor to grant me a letter of divorce. From now on, your life or death has nothing to do with me. We will not interfere with each other and just pretend that we have never met. That's all, right? You won't suspect me anymore!"

After leaving these words, she took a few deep breaths and turned away.

She could understand that this man was suspicious and sensitive, but she felt disheartened when she took him out for a walk with good intentions but it aroused his suspicion.

For so many days, in order to get him surgery as soon as possible, she made all kinds of delicious food to coax him to eat. He ate and defecated, and she served him wholeheartedly, just to prevent him from suffering too much and to get him on his feet as soon as possible.

But in the end, he began to doubt her?

She angrily came to Qingfeng Pavilion, which was closest to Yanjing Palace, and lay down with her clothes on. Chuntao hurriedly chased after her and asked,

"Princess, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm angry. I'll go to the palace tomorrow morning and ask the emperor for permission to divorce me."

"Princess, please don't say such angry words. If you divorce now, where can you go?"

"Will I starve to death? Luo Yuanjian was promoted three levels because of me, so what's wrong with asking him to give me a meal?"

"Princess, that's not what I meant. Madam Luo, your aunt, doesn't want you to go back..."

"I know."

She waved her hands impatiently.

"Back off, don't bother me, I need to think about it myself."

"Princess, I don't want to bother you, but these servants are furious..."

Hearing this, she sat up from the bed.

"What happened?"

"Just now, didn't you say that someone from the imperial court was coming? But there was nothing outside the gate. Steward Lu ordered people to check, but there was no one within two miles. Everyone is wondering whether what you said is true or false."

So that’s what happened.

"No matter whether it's true or not, the assassin was scared off, that's the most important thing. Okay, retreat! I'm sleepy."

"Princess, I will withdraw now, but please think about how to explain it tomorrow! The Emperor will definitely ask about this matter."

Chuntao's words reminded Luo Nianxi that she was only thinking about scaring off these assassins and had not thought about how to explain the matter later.

But think about it, no matter what, my life is saved, and I will always have an excuse for the rest.

Too many things happened today, she felt tired, and she didn't want to think about anything, so she simply turned over and fell asleep.

June 16

Early in the morning, Luo Nianxi was awakened by a knock on the door, followed by the sound of Chuntao's footsteps.

"Princess, please wake up, the Emperor and the Empress are here."

"what?"

Luo Nianxi felt her head getting bigger. She sat on the bed and looked at Chuntao in astonishment.

"Who did you say was coming?"

"Your Majesty and Empress, someone from the palace has just come to inform us that we should prepare to receive the Emperor. Please get up quickly!"

Why are they here? Is it because of the ambush at Prince Yan's mansion last night?

It seems that the Emperor and the Empress are quite concerned about Leng Yiyan.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly got up from bed and said to Chuntao:

"Where are they? Come on, help me get dressed."

"We are about to enter the mansion as we speak, please hurry up!"

At Chuntao's urging, she sat down in front of the bronze mirror...

She didn't want the emperor and the empress to catch her sleeping in.

Although she planned to ask the emperor for a divorce letter last night, she now regretted it.

She is a doctor, she can't just stand by and watch someone die.

Besides, Leng Yiyan is not a bad person, he is just nervous. Even if you want to leave, you have to wait until he is cured.

Just as she was getting ready to go out, she heard the eunuch's voice from the front yard.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has arrived at Prince Yan's Mansion."
