The foolish girl returns, and the regent becomes a wife-loving madman

The queen was startled by Lu Zhong's roar. She looked at the blood on his hands and gently stroked her hair.

Seeing the blood on her palm, she was shocked, screamed and fainted.

Lu Zhong stepped forward and wanted to pick up the queen himself, but he noticed that someone behind him wanted to move, so he had to order the palace maids to place the queen on the couch.

He ordered the guards who broke in later: "An assassin has broken into the palace. Go inform the emperor and the guards."

At his command, everyone retreated.

Zhao Yiliang hid in a corner of the bedroom, looking at the palace maids and guards who arrived in a moment, his eyes slightly gloomy.

If he wasn't injured, he could still give it a try.

Thinking of the negligence just now, I couldn't help but feel annoyed.

For some reason, the image of Shen Jingxuan tapping her forehead flashed quickly through Zhao Yiliang's mind.

He pursed his lips and walked towards a remote location in the palace.

Ling Chen finally sneaked into the palace. After knocking out a palace servant and disguising himself, he was shocked by the scene in the palace.

Seeing them running and shouting that there was an assassin, he cursed Zhao Yiliang in his heart for being more of a hindrance than a help.

Since he had already lured Lu Zhong to the palace, he already knew that he was not involved, so why did he have to go into the palace to check in person?

The palace is now heavily guarded, so it would be difficult to leave.

Ling Chen hurried towards the Queen's bedroom but was stopped by a eunuch halfway.

"There is an assassin in the Queen's palace. Why don't you go and inform the other masters so that they won't be disturbed."

"Yes." Although he was reluctant, Ling Chen had to respond.

After his father-in-law left, he quickly disappeared to a secluded place.

Zhao Yiliang hid in the gap between the rockery and gasped for breath. Every time he breathed, his wound felt like it was being torn apart.

But in a flash, his face turned pale and even moving became extremely difficult.

As soon as he leaned against the rockery, he heard footsteps approaching.

Zhao Yiliang tried hard to lower his breathing, staring at the entrance with cold eyes.

The figure in front of him swayed, and he pounced on it instantly like a beast seeing its prey.

“Hiss…”

“Hmm…”

Both of them fell to the ground, one of them clamped the other's arm with one hand, the other hand pinched the other's neck with the other hand, staring at each other with sharp eyes.

After seeing each other's faces clearly, they withdrew their hands.

Ling Chen stood up and rubbed his waist vigorously: "Are you going to die?"

Zhao Yiliang frowned and said, "It happened suddenly."

He also didn't expect that he would be so excited from overhearing the news that he would let blood drip from the wound.

What was even more unexpected was that Lu Zhong, as the prime minister, was so alert.

Ling Chen glared at him: "What should we do now? It may be difficult to leave the palace."

Zhao Yiliang said: "Find a place to hide first, and then leave the palace after dark."

The palace is now under martial law, and it is not easy for two people to leave the palace, not to mention that Zhao Yiliang is still injured and has not recovered.

Zhao Yiliang and Ling Chen kept changing positions, waiting for dark, when Shen Jingxuan had already received news from the palace.

She couldn't help but doubt that joining forces with Zhao Yiliang was a wrong choice.

Shen Jingxuan said angrily: "Didn't the people in the palace find Zhao Yiliang?"

Ling Qiong said: "No, we are searching."

After hearing Ling Qiong's words, Shen Jingxuan asked, "Can anyone in the palace find him?"

“Yes, but it will take a lot of time.”

The imperial palace is not an ordinary residence. Even those who work in the palace have places they are not allowed to enter.

It is not easy to find someone in such a huge palace.

Shen Jingxuan thought hard but still couldn't think of any other solution.

Her current physical condition makes it inconvenient for her to use martial arts.

If she could use it, she could still try to break in, but that would be when there was no search.

"Where's Ling Chen?"

"Also entered the palace."

Shen Jingxuan continued: "If I enter the palace, is there a way to get in touch quickly?"

She could think of a way to enter the palace, but the difficulty lay in how to contact them.

If we can't contact one of them, entering the palace will be futile.

Ling Qiong said: "The Luofeng Temple has a special way of contacting him. If you enter the palace, you can easily contact him."

Shen Jingxuan was puzzled: "Why can't people in the palace contact him?"

There are secret scouts of Xie Lingxiao in the palace. If there is a special way of contacting him, how could it have taken so long to find him?

"Only the prince's confidants can contact him quickly, and no one else knows."

After hearing Ling Qiong's words, Shen Jingxuan paced back and forth in the room, constantly thinking about entering the palace.

Now her health is not convenient for her to enter the palace, and Xie Lingxiao is not in Shangjing City.

It was not easy for her to find someone to enter the palace in such a short time.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Jingxuan walked out quickly: "Call Ling Yu, let's go out of the house."

Ling Qiong glanced at Ling Huan, and Ling Huan left quickly.

When Shen Jingxuan and Ling Qiong arrived at the mansion gate, Ling Yu and Ling Huan were already waiting there.

Several people got on the carriage, and Ling Yu drove the carriage all the way towards the Mansion of the Loyal and Brave Marquis.

When the doorman saw Shen Jingxuan, he let her into the mansion without waiting for her to speak.

When Jiang Shaoying heard the report from the servant, he hurried out to meet them.

"Ah Xuan, you finally came to the mansion."

She hadn't seen Shen Jingxuan for a long time. When she saw her now, her eyes and brows were filled with smiles.

Shen Jingxuan asked anxiously: "Where's Daddy? I have something to ask him."

"He went to the military camp early in the morning and is not at home now."

"Ying'er, when will daddy come back home?"

Jiang Shaoying glanced at the sky and said, "In the past, at this time, they would be on their way back home."

She pulled Shen Jingxuan and asked, "Xuan, what happened?"

"Something happened in the palace, go in and wait for him."

After they finished talking, the two of them came to the front hall together. Seeing Shen Jingxuan was anxious, Jiang Shaoying called the servants and ordered, "Go and guard the gate of the mansion. When my father comes back, ask him to come here quickly."

"Ah Xuan, don't worry, Dad will be back soon."

"Okay." Shen Jingxuan responded.

Half a quarter of an hour later, there was still no sign of Marquis Zhongyong, and she became even more anxious.

It has been so long since they received the news, I wonder if that stupid guy Zhao Yiliang has been caught now.

Thinking about how he had to prove himself to be the best choice yesterday and how he had to find a way to save him today, Shen Jingxuan gritted her teeth secretly.

But after this incident, she seemed to be certain that Zhao Yiliang really had no brains.

The sky outside was gradually darkening. Seeing that Marquis Zhongyong had not returned home yet, Shen Jingxuan stood up and walked out.

"Ying'er, I'm leaving."

"Ah Xuan, aren't you waiting for Dad to come back home?"

As Shen Jingxuan walked, she said, "I don't know when my father will return home. Things in the palace can't wait."

More than two hours have passed. Instead of waiting here, we might as well think of other solutions.

If it was just Zhao Yilian, she wouldn't be too anxious, but Ling Chen was still in the palace.

Ling Chen has followed Xie Lingxiao since he was a child, and Shen Jingxuan cannot let him be in any danger.

Jiang Shaoying frowned, "Dad is such a fool. He usually comes home so early, but today he hasn't come back yet."

"Ah Xuan, wait until Dad comes back, I'll help you scold him."

"Who do you want to scold, little girl?"
