Traveling through the Tang Dynasty: The Concubine Goes to War

Chapter 190: No mercy in the face of a strong enemy

After dealing with the young eunuch involved, Yunxi's mood did not feel relieved, but became heavier. She knew that the mastermind behind the incident, Mei Cairen, was still at large, but she could not do anything to her because of the relationship with the Queen Mother, and she could not help but feel helpless and angry.

"Damn it!" Yunxi couldn't help but curse in a low voice when he thought of the scene of the prince being injured. He clenched his fists tightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "I will never let go of anyone who hurt my prince so easily!"

Although Mei Cairen has the support of the Queen Mother, Yunxi does not intend to sit still and wait for death. She knows that the only thing she can do now is to investigate secretly and look for evidence.

Therefore, she decided to start with the palace maids who were close to Mei Cairen to see if she could find some clues. At the same time, she also told the palace maids around her to always be vigilant and guard against Mei Cairen's next move.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing. Yunxi was walking in the palace, thinking about her next plan. Suddenly, she saw Mei Cairen talking and laughing with a palace maid not far ahead. Her heart moved, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she came up with a plan.

Yunxi quietly walked behind the maid and coughed loudly. The maid heard the sound and turned her head sharply. When she saw Yunxi, her face turned pale as paper and her eyes revealed fear. She hurriedly saluted Mei Cairen and left in a hurry.

Looking at the palace maid's departing back, Yunxi's lips curled up slightly.

Mei Cairen saw this and a hint of panic flashed across her eyes, but she soon regained her composure. She said to Yunxi with a fake smile, "Sister, how come you have time to hang out here?" Yunxi smiled and replied, "I was just walking around. I was having a great time chatting with the palace maids."

After saying that, Yunxi glanced meaningfully in the direction where the palace maid left, then turned and left.

On the way back to the palace, Yunxi quietly sent her trusted maid to follow the maid who had just chatted with Mei Cairen to see if she could find some clues...

The trusted palace maid soon brought back the news that the palace maid had gone to a remote corner of the imperial garden and seemed to be meeting someone.

Yunxi was secretly delighted, thinking that her plan had worked. She made a prompt decision and went to the Imperial Garden with a few trusted palace maids.

When they arrived at the place, Yunxi signaled everyone to hide, and she quietly approached the corner, trying to eavesdrop on the conversation between the palace maid and the other party.

However, just as Yunxi was about to reach it, she suddenly felt a gust of wind coming, and someone attacked her! Yunxi dodged sideways, and when she looked closely, it turned out to be the palace maid!

The palace maid's eyes were fierce at this moment, and she was no longer as weak as before. It turned out that she was a killer specially arranged by Mei Cairen, whose purpose was to lure Yunxi here and then get rid of her.

Yunxi was startled, but she did not panic. Instead, she calmly analyzed the situation and looked for opportunities to fight back. She knew that the situation was very dangerous at the moment, and if she could not react quickly, the consequences would be disastrous.

At this critical moment, Yunxi reacted quickly and stepped back, trying to distance herself from the palace maid. At the same time, she looked for an opportunity to counterattack the palace maid.

Seeing this, the palace maid attacked again, at a very fast speed and with fierce moves. Yunxi did not dare to neglect and resisted with all her might. The two sides fought back and forth, and it was difficult to tell who would win.

At the same time, Yunxi also began to think about how to get out of the current predicament. She noticed the surrounding environment and found that there were some rockery and trees nearby, which could be used to avoid the attack of the palace maids. So, while dealing with the palace maids, she slowly moved towards the rockery.

Finally, Yunxi found an opportunity and successfully hid in the rockery. The palace maid lost her target and was at a loss. Yunxi took the opportunity to observe the surroundings and look for other exits.

At this time, she found a path leading to the outside of the garden not far away. Yunxi chose this route without hesitation and quickened her pace to escape from the scene.

The palace maid realized that Yunxi was trying to escape and hurriedly chased after him.

But Yunxi was well prepared. She had practiced judo and Sanda in modern times, and had fought side by side with Han Xuan for many years on the frontier. She had already acquired excellent skills. Yunxi dodged the attack of the palace maid with a quick move.

Then, she kicked the maid to the ground. After the maid fell to the ground, she quickly got up and rushed towards Yunxi again. Yunxi turned sideways, grabbed the maid's arm, and threw her several meters away. At this time, several other palace servants also rushed over and started a fierce battle with the maid.

Yunxi took this opportunity to sneak behind the maid and hit her in the back with all his strength. The maid vomited blood and fell to the ground, unable to move. After getting rid of the maid, Yunxi immediately led the palace servants away from the imperial garden.

She knew that this action had aroused Mei Cairen's vigilance, and she had to be more cautious in the future. But she also firmly believed that as long as she persisted, she would be able to find Mei Cairen's handle and avenge the prince.

After this dangerous situation, Yunxi deeply realized the cruelty of the palace struggle. She knew that she had to act more cautiously in the future to protect herself and the people around her. As for Mei Cairen's conspiracy, she decided not to sit idly by and find a way to expose her true face.

Yunxi knew that the matter would not end there, so she decided to take the initiative.

So, at a banquet, she deliberately got herself drunk, pretended to be drunk, and staggered towards where Mei Cairen was.

Mei Cairen was a little surprised to see Yunxi coming over, but she still stood up politely and supported Yunxi: "Sister, what's wrong with you? You drank so much."

Yunxi looked up at Mei Cairen with a dazed look in her eyes and a hint of smile on her lips: "Sister, have another drink with me." As she said that, she picked up the wine glass and handed it to Mei Cairen.

Mei Cairen hesitated for a moment, but still took the wine glass and drank it all. Yunxi nodded with satisfaction, then approached Mei Cairen and asked softly, "Sister, have you heard any rumors recently? About me?"

Mei Cairen was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, why did you suddenly ask this, sister?"

Yunxi smiled, with a sly look in her eyes: "Oh, it's okay, just asking casually. By the way, sister, what do you think of the emperor?"

Mei Cairen blushed slightly and lowered her head: "The emperor is naturally wise and brave, unparalleled in the world."

Yunxi nodded: "Yes, the emperor is indeed very outstanding. What about you, sister? Do you have someone you like?"

Mei Cairen raised her head, glanced at Yunxi, and then shook her head gently: "Sister, you are joking. I am devoted to serving the emperor. How can I have a crush on someone?"

Yunxi laughed: "Haha, sister is really loyal. But if one day the emperor no longer favors you, what will you do?"
