The news of the queen's assassination spread quickly throughout the palace.

When the news reached Emperor Bei Jing, he was reviewing memorials. Upon hearing the news, the pen in his hand fell instantly, and ink splattered all over the memorials.

He hurried to the queen's bedroom, only to see her lying on the bed with a pale face, her abdomen wrapped in thick bandages, and blood still oozing out.

The imperial doctors gathered around, anxiously discussing the patient's condition, but no one could give a definite answer.

Emperor Bei Jing felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He held the Queen's hand and said in a trembling voice, "Does it hurt? You can't be in trouble. I can't live without you."

The queen slowly opened her eyes and saw Emperor Bei Jing. A trace of comfort flashed in her eyes, but she was also deeply worried. She moved her lips with difficulty, "Your Majesty... Zi'er..."

Bei Jingdi knew that she was worried about Zier. He tried to make his voice sound steady, "You talk, I'm listening."

"Zi'er...the daily greetings...require me to tap the jade token twice with my hand. If I faint, try to touch it with my hand..."

Emperor Bei Jing held back his tears and nodded vigorously, "I know."

"Don't tell Heng'er that something happened to me."

"I remember, don't get into trouble, or I'll go crazy."

The Queen nodded gently, but seemed to have something else to say. Seeing this, Emperor Bei Jing hurriedly asked, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

The queen swallowed hard and said with difficulty: "Zi'er...can't come..."

Emperor Bei Jing's heart sank, and he held the Queen's hand tighter, "I know, don't worry, I won't let her come."

A hint of relief flashed across the queen's eyes, and then she fell into a coma.

"How exactly is the Queen's injury?"

Emperor Bei Jing suppressed his murderous rage and asked the imperial physician.

"Your Majesty, the Queen's wound is too deep and the sword is poisoned. It is your ministers' fault for being incompetent." The imperial doctors knelt on the ground and the atmosphere in the hall was tense.

Emperor Bei Jing closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to suppress his bloodthirsty murderous intent. Suddenly he thought of something and immediately put the jade token he kept close to his body into the Queen's hand.

I waited for a while, but to no avail.

"How could this happen? Why can Heng'er..."

His eyes lit up, Heng'er!

"Take good care of the Queen, I will be back soon."

He hurried to the prince's palace.

"Father, where is Mother? My sister the goddess has asked how are you twice today. If I don't reply, she might get angry."

Emperor Bei Jing calmed down when he entered the room. He said in a calm tone, "I am going to spend some time alone with the Queen. You should have a good rest these few days and change the jade token."

The prince did not suspect anything and handed the jade token out, but saw that Emperor Bei Jing had not left.

"Father, is there anything else?"

"Let me see if this jade token can work on you?"

He stayed for a while and saw that the prince was normal, which confirmed his guess that the jade token was used to identify blood ties!

"You should take good care of yourself. I will come to see you later."

Emperor Bei Jing returned to the Queen's bedroom, dismissed everyone and put the jade token back into the Queen's hands. Sure enough, the condition did not worsen, but this was not a long-term solution.

Emperor Bei Jing's eyes were filled with rage at this moment, "Nan Wanxing, it better not be you!"

He walked to the desk and wrote a letter.

"Someone is coming."

"His Majesty."

"Send this letter to the Emperor of Nanyue as quickly as possible and ask her to reply."

The eunuch beside him hesitated, "What if the Emperor of Nanyue does not reply?"

"The Emperor of Nanyue has betrayed us and killed his wife and children. We must avenge our national hatred and family feuds and mobilize the whole nation to send troops to Nanyue."

The father-in-law beside him suddenly felt confident, "Yes."

"boom-"

It was the sound of a fist slamming on the table.

The reason why the queen was injured was because of his position as emperor. He hated himself for not being able to protect his wife and children, and he also hated those who dared to hurt his wife.

He was certain that this was done by Nan Yue, but he still needed the other party to give him a personal answer as to whether it was Nan Wanxing who ordered it.

Zi'er!

He suddenly remembered what the Queen had told him before she fell into a coma. He walked a few steps to the bed, took the Queen's hand, and touched the jade token twice, not knowing whether the other party could sense it.

Emperor Bei Jing was a little worried. If a war broke out and Zi'er was still in South Vietnam, would her health be affected? Emperor Bei Jing frowned slightly and had to think of a way to get her back to Chen Palace.

Ziyou, who was far away in South Vietnam, did not feel the queen's response. She usually had a smiling face, but at this moment she became more serious.

Something happened to the Queen!

She was very sure that something must have happened to the queen.

She stood up suddenly, startling the two people in the room.

"Goddess, what's wrong?"

"My queen is in trouble. I have to go to Beijing."

The two immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, "Goddess, we will go with you."

"You two go back to Chen Palace, don't follow me."

The two of them blocked each other automatically, and Bei Chenxi said, "If you don't take me with you, I will go secretly by myself. Anyway, we will meet in the end."

"Me too." Xue Qingbai spoke up right after.

"It's very dangerous. Be good, go back to Chen Palace first, I will come to find you later."

The two shook their heads firmly.

In this confrontation, Ziyou finally gave in, "Let's go together and prepare the car."

The action of the two people preparing the car naturally reached Nan Wanxing's ears. She put aside her government affairs and came to the Forbidden Star Palace.

"Ziyou, are you going on a long journey?"

The other party nodded.

"Is the palace too boring? Then I'll go out for a walk with you."

"No, I'm going out for a while. It won't be long."

Nan Wanxing thought for a moment and said, "You are weak now. Can I ask General Si to bring someone to accompany you? This is to prevent some ignorant people from bumping into you."

"No, I can do it myself."

"Ziyou, is there something wrong with you?"

Ziyou glanced at her and said, "I want to go to Beijing."

"Are you missing the queen and the others?" Nan Wanxing's voice was very gentle, "Please don't be gone for too long, I will miss you."

This was the first time that Zi You had heard such straightforward words. She was a little surprised, "Xiao Xingxing... why are you talking like that today..."

Nan Wanxing smiled and said, "I was afraid you wouldn't come back."

Ziyou's eyes flickered. Was she reluctant to leave herself?

Does she need herself?

"I will be back, wait for me."

Nan Wanxing looked at her gently for a long time, "Ziyou, your purple eyes are very beautiful."

"Hmm. Ah?"

Ziyou was a little confused. She couldn't follow what Nan Wanxing said today.

"In Northview, don't keep your eyes on others for too long, okay?"

Although Ziyou was confused, she still nodded.

This is Nan Wanxing's selfish desire. She doesn't want anyone else in these purple eyes.

"Take my carriage. I will ask General Si to lead the troops to take you to Beijing. We have built a road to Beijing before, which can save a lot of time."

"it is good."

"When will we set off?"

"Now."
