Quick Wear: The Short-lived Female Supporting Character Does Not Want to Be a Heartthrob

Taking a look at Xu Qingyun's appearance, Wan Ning felt that he was quite cute sometimes.

Because Xu Qingyun was holding a desk in his hands at this moment, and when he saw the man in black trying to break through the outer layer of protection and come in, he just swung it.

Even the Empress Shangguan Yan who was standing beside her looked at Qing Shijun a few more times. In fact, the Empress also had kung fu skills, and she was even more powerful than Qing Shijun.

However, as the queen, she would not show her strength to outsiders until the last moment.

Wan Ning reminded Shangguan Yue that her father was there, and Shangguan Yue turned around to look.

"Well, since my father is with His Majesty, let's find a place to hide."

Wan Ning nodded, and the two sisters retreated into the hall accompanied by several royal guards.

After a while, the queen also arrived at the hall.

However, Empress Shangguan Yan did not enter the hall. Instead, she stood at the door of the hall, with her back straight, looking directly at the chaos below.

There are many royal guards below the hall, holding weapons and guarding the front.

When Qing Shijun saw his two daughters, he hurried over to comfort them and told them not to be afraid.

Being held in his father's arms and feeling the warmth from his father, Wan Ning found this feeling quite comfortable.

She thought to herself that Qing Shijun had tried so hard to protect Empress Shangguan Yan just now, probably for the sake of his two daughters!

Xu Qingyun wanted to use his actions to make the Queen stop blaming his eldest daughter Shangguan Yue.

No one can compare to a father’s loving heart.

The chaos lasted for a while before it was brought under control. The Royal Guards surrounded the remaining men in black who were still resisting, one man against seven or eight people, and directly pinned them down.

At this time, Queen Shangguan Yan shouted coldly: "Leave him alive."

The imperial guards no longer dared to use brutal force and instead focused on capturing people.

However, this opportunity gave the men in black a chance to fight back, but it was in vain in the end. Seeing themselves being caught, some of the men in black had bloody lips and their bodies shook.

Before the Royal Guards could step forward and catch him, the man in black fell down.

When someone came forward to check, the person on the ground had already died, having died from the poison.

Then the rest of the men in black followed suit, and several of them died instantly.

Someone reported this to the Queen, Shangguan Yan, who frowned and said, "No matter what method you use, you must keep him alive."

At this time, two plain-looking women walked out from Shangguan Yan's side, and they jumped down and joined the melee.

Finally they caught him alive, but his jaws were cut off.

At this time, the commander of the Imperial Guards who was in charge of cleaning up the corpses discovered something and immediately presented it to Shangguan Yan.

Wan Ning was at the back, so he didn't see clearly what it was. But he heard a minister next to him whisper: "Token."

Queen Shangguan Yan took a look at the token that was brought to her, which was still stained with blood.

She frowned: "Take it down first and find out its authenticity."

"Yes!"

At this time, the Crown Princess came over, supported by someone: "Your Majesty, your son is back."

The Crown Princess had not been seen since a while ago, and the Empress's officer immediately questioned her when she saw her come back.

"I was separated by those people and led to the garden. I and the people around me fought desperately to get out."

Crown Princess Shangguan Chuxue pushed away the people who were supporting her and knelt down to explain to Shangguan Yan.

Shangguan Yan frowned: "What's wrong with your foot?"

Shangguan Chuxue immediately shook her head: "I am fine, I just twisted my foot. Mother, are you healthy?"

"I'm fine. This little trick can't scare me."

In fact, she clenched her hands tightly under her wide sleeves, and was furious. From the previous hunting to the assassination at her birthday banquet today, it was obvious that they were targeting her.

Last time, she found out that the mastermind was a small tribe in the south that had surrendered to the vassal state. She ordered the arrest of the leader of that tribe and his family.

Who is giving the instructions this time?

She didn't believe that all these things were planned by one person.

Seeing that the empress was fine, the crown princess Shangguan Chuxue reported to Shangguan Yan: "Mother, I am lucky to be fine, but my second sister injured her arm in order to protect me."

"Oh," Queen Shangguan Yan frowned, "Where is she?"

"Replying to the Queen Mother, the Imperial Guards just passed by, and I asked them to send my second sister to get bandaged."

At this time, court officials came out of the hall to count the injured ministers and their families.

People from the Dali Temple also appeared in time and followed Shangguan Yan's instructions.

"Are those tokens real?"

Master Qiao of the Dali Temple took a look at the Crown Princess behind him and immediately bowed his hands and reported: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely true. It is indeed the personal token worn by the guards in the Crown Princess's palace."

The Crown Princess standing at the back immediately stepped forward as soon as she heard the words: "Mother Queen, what token?"

"Master Qiao, please tell me clearly, where did the token of my palace guard appear?"

When Lord Qiao saw that Queen Shangguan Yan did not stop them, he said directly: "We found tokens from your palace on those who tried to cause trouble just now."

Shangguan Chuxue was immediately shocked. She couldn't believe it: "Master Qiao, you are slandering me!"

How dare Lord Qiao slander the Crown Princess of a country? She immediately bowed and saluted sincerely: "I am only following your Majesty's orders, and I would never dare to hide anything from the Crown Princess."

Seeing that Crown Princess Shangguan Chuxue still wanted to argue, Empress Shangguan Yan raised her hand to stop her from speaking.

"Follow Master Qiao first and cooperate well."

Upon hearing Shangguan Yan's words, Crown Princess Shangguan Chuxue felt uncomfortable, sad and angry, with indescribable sorrow in her heart.

Everyone inside and outside the hall was very surprised. Although they did not fully understand the situation, they knew one thing, that is, the Crown Princess might be related to tonight's assassination.

Wan Ning looked at Shangguan Chuxue, whose body was shaking a little. Her back looked very lonely and sad.

As the crown princess, she often has to face things that even she herself could not have expected. What about Shangguan Yue? If she becomes the crown princess in the future, will she also have to encounter these things frequently?

Princess Shangguan Chuxue stood there for a while, and finally walked down the stairs. The two maids below wanted to help her, but she refused and pushed them away.

"I can walk by myself."

This is what she said, and finally she left with Lord Qiao.

Empress Shangguan Yan left the hall without saying a word. At this time, the palace steward immediately stepped forward and arranged for the ministers and their families to leave one after another.

Some people who were injured in the chaos just now were also specially sent back home.

Wan Ning was sent to Biluo Pavilion by Qing Shijun, and then he returned to his own residence.

In the following days, the palace was silent, without any noise or quarrel.

Lianxin and Lianrui also secretly told Wanning that the servants in the palace did not dare to argue casually, for fear that their own little affairs would cause other troubles.

Wan Ning thought about it and agreed.
