Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

Chapter 237 The Princess Was Assassinated

The Seventh Prince and Ye Youlan went out to take a look, and saw the Queen Mother with disheveled hair and a look of panic, so they hurried over to greet her.

"Youlan, help mother to her room. I'll go outside and take a look."

Ye Youlan helped the empress dowager to the wing room. Just as they reached the door, a group of men in black suddenly jumped down, holding shining white swords in their hands, which looked even more eerie in the middle of the night.

Ye Youlan pushed the empress dowager into the side room and dealt with it herself.

"can you?"

"I have to lead them outside."

Ye Youlan took out a dagger, but a guard had already blocked her way and told her to leave quickly. The Queen Mother was so frightened that she quickly closed the door of the side room.

Ye Youlan walked towards the back mountain and was chased by men in black.

After a while, the Queen Mother could no longer hear the jingling sounds outside, so she opened the door of the side room a crack and saw that there were palace guards outside. She shouted and ordered them to go and rescue the princess quickly.

"Your Highness, the Seventh Prince has taken people to rescue the Princess. My current duty is to escort you back to the palace."

The Queen Mother returned to the palace and the Emperor came to visit her.

The Queen Mother was frightened and fell ill. The concubines in the palace came to show their filial piety and care about the Queen Mother's condition. They were glad that they did not go to the temple with her. Some people were curious and wondered if the Seventh Princess was in danger of her life?

The news that the Seventh Princess accompanied the Queen Mother and was assassinated at Xiangguo Temple and forced to jump off a cliff spread like a whirlwind throughout the streets and alleys.

The Prime Minister's residence was in a state of panic. Prime Minister Ye seemed to have aged ten years overnight. When he attended the morning court, he almost couldn't stand. The emperor couldn't bear it and let him go home to rest for a few days.

The prince's mansion was dead silent, sadness was written on everyone's face, even little Yueyue's face had lost its smile.

In order to find Ye Youlan, General Ye mobilized the elite forces of the Yulin Army to go in search of her, and the Seventh Prince took away almost all the palace soldiers and guards.

The court was worried about who to send to welcome General Liu, and someone recommended General Zhao.

Some people were proud. General Ye went out of the city to find his sister, the Seventh Prince went out of the city to find his wife, and General Zhao went out of the city to welcome General Liu. The defense of the capital was very weak, and this was a great moment for them.

The Queen Mother kept an eye on the goings on outside every day. When concubines came, she was always listless and would send them away with just a few words.

One day, Concubine Ren came and said something unknown. The palace maid only heard a crisp slap, and then saw Concubine Ren covering her face and crying as she left. After she returned, Concubine Ren had a miscarriage.

Concubine Ren's father hated the Empress Dowager for being too ruthless. He expressed his loyalty in front of the Emperor and broke off ties with the Ren family. The court and the public were shocked, but he soon realized that the Ren family was doomed, and breaking off ties at this time was also a way for himself to escape.

General Liu met General Zhao who came to greet him fifty miles away from the capital. The two of them understood each other and smiled at each other knowingly.

General Zhao asked General Liu when the three thousand soldiers would follow.

"It would be best if the war goes on without bloodshed in three days, otherwise the capital will become the biggest slaughterhouse."

"When will Mr. Ren and the Fifth Prince arrive in Beijing?"

"They are already in the capital."

"Okay. The capital is empty right now. Seventh Prince Ye Qingchen is only focused on finding Ye Youlan, and Prime Minister Ye is recuperating at home. This is the best time."

At this point, the two of them burst into laughter.

Soon the group arrived in the capital. The city gates were wide open and a line of people lined up to welcome them. Many onlookers cheered for General Liu's might, and General Liu was very proud.

From Chunan to Chubei, this is the first time he has returned to Beijing in more than ten years. It is easy to invite him back this time, but it is difficult to send him away. He is looking forward to a new situation that will change the world.

Li Zong came to greet him with officials from various departments. General Liu looked at Li Zong with disdain and asked, "Are you Li Da's son?"

Li Zong felt a little guilty. After all, the woman he slept with, Ren Yue, was General Liu's daughter-in-law. Sure enough, he saw the irritation on General Liu's face. He hurriedly replied, "Li Da is my father. General, you've been traveling so long, and the General's Mansion has been completely renovated. Please return home and rest, and come to the palace to see His Majesty tomorrow."

General Liu saw Li Zong's evasive gaze, snorted contemptuously, and then rode away. The dust raised by the horse's hooves blinded Li Zong's eyes.

Qin Yurou has been feeling very tired recently, so Chunni called a doctor for her. The doctor advised her to worry less and rest more, as her body has been suffering from too much deficiency, and if she doesn't take good care of herself, it will accumulate into a serious illness that will cause trouble.

Qin Yurou was very surprised to hear that Ye Youlan jumped off a cliff after encountering an assassin. She asked Chunni to go to the palace to inquire about the news and see if there was anyone who needed help.

Xiaomei's eyes were swollen from crying. She felt very unfamiliar when she saw Chunni and asked why it wasn't Xiaohong?

Chunni choked up and told Xiaomei: "Sister Xiaohong fell into the water and died a few days ago. Now I am serving by my wife's side. Please take good care of her in the future."

Xiao Hong died? Xiao Mei couldn't believe her ears. She was even more surprised than hearing that the princess had been assassinated. How could such a healthy person just disappear like that?

"Tell your wife that the prince is looking for the princess. The princess is blessed by God and will be fine."

Ruoyun went to the Buddhist temple with her big belly, chanted Buddhist scriptures and copied scriptures with her mother, begging God to bless Ye Youlan with peace and safety.

Jinbao would also come here secretly after school to hear if there was any news about the princess.

The child has become much more sensible. When he appears in front of the lady, she is not so disgusted with him and sometimes even gives him some snacks.

Jin Bao met with Zhao Zicheng and Ding Xiaoshan, and the three of them discussed whether to go out of the city to help find the princess?

"It's better not to go. If we can't find the princess, our three families will send people to look for us, which will only cause trouble."

Chen Xiaoling was so anxious that she kept asking Chen Su every day if she had any news about Ye Youlan. But when she saw Chen Su's dejected expression when she came back, she realized it was pointless to ask.

Princess Yong'an comforted Chen Xiaoling: "Youlan is a wealthy and powerful person, nothing will happen to her, just wait and see!"

Miaoyu didn't know that Youlan was missing. Because she was weak, Zhang Liang and Li Shangshu kept it from her.

Three days later, General Liu entered the palace. Prime Minister Ye forced himself to go into the palace as well. He always felt that General Liu's return this time was extraordinary.

The Emperor didn't seem to have gotten enough rest last night; his eyes were dark and his face was gloomy. He was still very happy to see General Liu. He asked about Chu Bei's situation and asked if he was adapting well after returning. His family should be arriving in the capital soon, right?

General Liu shuddered. What did the Emperor mean? Was he issuing an order for the Liu family to return to the capital?

The emperor smiled and said, "I have a surprise for you, my dear. I have sent people to Chubei to pick up your family and bring them to the capital to reunite with you."

General Liu sneered in his heart. Is this a surprise? This is clearly a threat.

"I also brought a surprise for the Emperor. On my way back to the capital, I met two old friends. They wanted to see the Emperor, so I boldly brought them into the palace."

The emperor and his ministers were all shocked. One token was required to enter the palace, one per person. How had General Liu brought two people into the palace? Was he suggesting there was a spy inside?

"Oh, I'm curious, which two friends are they?"

General Liu turned and shouted outside the hall: "Come in!"
