Rebirth is not a dream.

Chapter 136 Princess Mingyue

The emperor smiled and said, "In that case, I will confer upon you the title of Princess Mingyue! That way, your father will not have any objections when he comes to see you in the future."

At this moment, people from An Ning Marquis's Mansion arrived one after another, their faces filled with joy and gratitude. Su Yue's eyes flashed with emotion, and she thanked the emperor together with everyone from An Ning Marquis's Mansion.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Everyone shouted in unison, and their voices echoed throughout the palace.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Su Yue: "I hope you can become a kind and intelligent princess and contribute to the court and the people."

Su Yue replied respectfully: "I will live up to your expectations, study hard, and do my part for the court and the people."

Everyone in the hall congratulated the emperor and Su Yue. After Su Yue kowtowed to express her gratitude, she moved to a seat nearby under the guidance of a palace maid.

The banquet continued, and the court musicians played cheerful music. The dancers danced gracefully, which was beautiful. While Su Yue was enjoying the singing and dancing, she was thinking about how to end it early.

However, she did not notice that the other concubines present were looking at her with a hint of jealousy. After all, Su Yue had just been canonized by the emperor and became the Princess Mingyue, which undoubtedly raised her status instantly. However, no one dared to question it no matter how unconvinced they were.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the banquet gradually came to an end. Su Yue was secretly happy that she could finally go back to rest. However, just as she was about to get up and say goodbye, the emperor suddenly said, "The moonlight is just right today. Why don't you follow me to the garden to enjoy the moon?" Everyone responded and got up to follow the emperor to the garden. Su Yue had no choice but to follow everyone. In the garden, the emperor and the ministers were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Su Yue stood quietly aside, her eyes sweeping across the crowd from time to time.

Concubine Su stood next to the emperor, Concubine Xian and the queen stood on one side. Su Yue looked at the concubines around the emperor and thought that there were really a hundred flowers blooming in this palace! Everyone had a unique temperament and charm, and Concubine Su looked back at Su Yue, and her eyes seemed to have a deep meaning.

Su Yue didn't understand why she looked at him, but she didn't know how to ask. She wondered what this Concubine Su meant. Was she dissatisfied with him? But she didn't look angry or hate him.

However, Su Yue just wanted to leave this place at this moment. This place made her feel depressed and uncomfortable, as if she was trapped in an invisible cage. She longed for freedom and longed to return to her own world.

At this moment, the emperor said excitedly that he wanted to continue to enjoy the fireworks display. Su Yue looked up at the sky helplessly, watching the fireworks blooming in the sky. Although they were also beautiful, they were still far inferior to what she had seen in her previous life.

While everyone was immersed in the splendor of the fireworks, Su Yue seemed a little absent-minded. Her eyes were wandering, and her mind had already flown away.

Qin Yi, who was standing by, noticed Su Yue's abnormality and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" His voice was gentle and full of worry.

Su Yue shook her head and replied softly, "It's okay, maybe I'm a little tired." She tried to hide her inner uneasiness and didn't want to make Qin Yi worry. But in fact, the panic in her heart became stronger and stronger, and she always felt that something was about to happen.

Perhaps because she was in the palace, the atmosphere here always made people feel tense. Su Yue couldn't help but think of the plots of intrigue and deception in the palace fighting dramas, and a trace of fear rose in her heart. She secretly prayed that no danger would come.

Su Yue looked at the chaotic situation in front of her, feeling uneasy. Who were these men in black? Why did they want to assassinate the emperor? A series of questions came to her mind. She knew that now was not the time to think, and she had to help the emperor escape from danger as soon as possible.

Qin Yi also realized that the situation was not good. He whispered to Su Yue, "Protect yourself and don't run around." After that, he quickly joined the battle and fought against the men in black with other guards.

Su Yue looked at Qin Yi nervously, silently praying that he would be safe. At the same time, she was also looking for opportunities to help.

However, the black-clad men kept coming, and the guards gradually felt exhausted. Although they fought hard, the enemies were numerous and skilled, which gradually put them in trouble.

At this moment, an arrow suddenly shot from a distance, heading straight for the emperor. This sudden attack caught everyone off guard. However, Concubine Su did not hesitate to fly towards the emperor and blocked the arrow with her body. The emperor was safe and sound, but Concubine Su was unfortunately hit in the left shoulder, and the blood quickly stained her clothes red.

She clenched her teeth, endured the severe pain, and did not let herself make a sound. The emperor looked at her anxiously and shouted, "Ying'er! Imperial physician! Call the imperial physician here quickly!" His eyes were full of concern and worry.

At the same time, the emperor's black armored guards finally rushed into the palace and started a fierce battle with the assassins. They killed the assassins with lightning speed and reversed the situation. Some of the captured assassins also bit the poison on their teeth and chose to commit suicide to avoid falling into the hands of the enemy.

This sudden assassination turned the originally joyful banquet into a battlefield, and everyone was panicked. For a time, screams, cries and panic filled the entire banquet hall, and people fled everywhere looking for a safe place to hide. Su Yue hid in the dark, witnessing this bloody fight. She was full of helplessness and confusion, and couldn't help wondering if she had Conan's physique, and would be assassinated and cause murder wherever she went. It was really puzzling that so many assassins appeared in the palace this time. After all, the palace's security system should have been the most stringent at the time, so why were there so many assassins able to sneak in?

Su Yue recalled everything that had just happened with lingering fear. Fortunately, the emperor did not pursue the matter too much. He just ordered a brief interrogation of the people present and then let everyone go. The queen quickly took over the situation, comforted the frightened guests, and arranged for the guards to clean up the scene. The emperor hurriedly left the banquet hall with Concubine Su and returned to Concubine Su's Yaoguang Palace.

The people from An Ning Marquis's mansion also left the palace with other guests, but An Ning Marquis and Qin Jin chose to stay to assist the palace in investigating the truth of the matter. They knew the seriousness of the incident and were determined to help the palace find out the mastermind behind it as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the royal family. Su Yue watched all this silently, hoping to uncover the mystery as soon as possible and find out the mastermind behind the assassination. Su Yue didn't want to think about who could arrange so many assassins under such circumstances, and it seemed more like the emperor had arranged it. Who else in the palace could arrange such a big drama so secretly? I just don't know what the meaning behind it is. Maybe she just thought too much.

Su Yue sat in the carriage, her whole body pressed against Qin Yi. Qin Yi asked with concern: "Are you scared?"

Su Yue shook her head, indicating that she was fine. After all, she had had a similar experience last time, and this time it was not directed at her, so she was not particularly scared. However, Qin Yi frowned tightly, as if he was lost in thought. Su Yue didn't know what he was thinking about, but she believed that he would handle everything.

However, Su Yue never expected that when they returned to An Ning Marquis's Mansion, an unexpected situation was waiting for her. This made her realize that what happened today was far more than the incident in the palace. She couldn't help but sigh that life is always full of variables and challenges.
