Marrying a Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the

Lin Yiwan spoke slowly: "I don't know much about the people around Xiao Yu, I have to rely on the emperor to investigate!"

Emperor Sheng'an called Li Delu in and said, "Get the list of Xiao Yu's servants from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Marquis' wife and I will investigate their backgrounds one by one!"

"Yes!" Li Delu quickly took the order and left.

He went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to ask for the list, but was told that it had been taken away long ago.

Li Delu was so angry that he kicked the head steward of the Imperial Household Department: "Don't you know who took it?"

The head of the Imperial Household Department argued aggrievedly: "I know, it was Xiao Shunzi, your eunuch Li's servant. He said the emperor wanted it, so I gave it to him!"

Li Delu's expression suddenly changed and he hurried back to his yard.

His name was Xiao Shunzi, and when he saw him limping out, he said, "Dad, what are you looking for, kid?"

Li Delu frowned and looked at his adopted son in front of him, trying to figure out whether he was a human or a ghost.

Xiao Shunzi touched his face and said, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face?"

Li Delu asked gloomily, "Did you go to the head steward of the Imperial Household Department to ask for the list of servants in the palace of Second Prince Xiao Yu?"

Xiao Shunzi curled his lips innocently: "No, I have been staying in the palace to rest since I sprained my ankle. How could I go to the Imperial Household Department?"

Li Delu was immediately shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. It seemed that someone had pretended to be Xiao Shunzi and snatched the roster in advance.

He did not dare to hesitate and immediately dragged Xiao Shunzi to see Emperor Sheng An.

After hearing this, Emperor Sheng An and Lin Yiwan felt that this matter was even more strange.

Lin Yiwan spoke first, "No one would take the Second Prince's bedroom roster for no reason, unless they have ulterior motives!"

A look of worry flashed across Emperor Sheng'an's face. He frowned and said, "Wanwan, if we don't have the list, we won't be able to find that person. He's in the dark, and I'm in the light. Doesn't that mean he'll be able to plot against us?"

Lin Yiwan spoke in a cryptic voice, "For now, we can only respond as the situation escalates. You can't rely on others; you have to be on your own to prepare!"

Emperor Sheng An was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back. He became a little panicked when he thought that there was a knife pointed at him in the dark.

He begged anxiously, "Wanwan, please think of a way. How about letting Zhan Yan come to the palace to accompany me? That way, if I encounter any problems, I'll have someone to discuss it with!"

Before Lin Yiwan could answer, she heard someone outside report: "Madam, the eldest princess's daughter has contracted an acute illness. She wants you to go over and see her immediately!"

Emperor Sheng An's pupils contracted violently. At such a critical moment, something went wrong with the eldest princess again.

The person hiding behind this wants Lin Yiwan to be distracted from worrying about the palace!

He asked anxiously, "Wanwan, do you really have to go?"

Lin Yiwan didn't answer, she paced back and forth in the hall.

After a moment, she spoke coldly, "Your Majesty, bring the eldest princess and her daughter to you. Anyone who obstructs will be killed without mercy!"

"Good!" Emperor Sheng'an's eyes lit up. As expected of Wanwan, this was indeed a good idea.

He ordered Li Youde to personally lead the Imperial Guards to pick up the people, and told him not to be polite. Anyone who dared to stop them would be beheaded on the spot.

At this time, the eldest princess was anxiously waiting for Lin Yiwan to enter the mansion, but she didn't expect that half an hour later, she would meet Li Youde, the commander of the Imperial Guards.

She asked in surprise, "Where's Wanwan? Why are you here?"

Li Youde bowed respectfully and said, "I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness. Because the Emperor is ill, he has temporarily left the Marquis' wife in the palace. He heard that the young princess is unwell and is very worried. So, I ask that you and your daughter be taken to the palace for the Marquis' wife to see a doctor!"

The eldest princess quickly spoke up, "But the doctor said the little princess has rubella and can't go out!"

Li Youde asked calmly, "It's so tightly wrapped, can't we just get in the carriage?"

Before the princess could say anything, a maid hurried in and said, "Your Highness, you must not risk the life of the young princess. The fact that the emperor sent someone to pick her up shows that she should be fine. It's only a moment's work. Can't you also allow the marquis' wife to come over?"

Li Youde frowned and looked at the maid, thinking that her life might be over.

He immediately drew his sword and chopped off her head with one blow.

Blood gushed out everywhere, shocking the eldest princess so much that her expression changed instantly.

She shouted angrily, "Li Youde, what are you doing? How dare you kill people at will in the princess's mansion?"

Li Youde said respectfully, "I am following the Emperor's orders. Anyone who prevents Her Royal Highness from bringing the little princess into the palace is intentionally trying to sow discord between you and will be killed without mercy!"

The princess reacted instantly. She lowered her voice and asked, "Li Youde, is there something wrong in the palace?"

Li Youde replied, "I dare not speak rashly. I ask Your Highness to ask the Emperor in person!"

The eldest princess nodded immediately: "Okay, let's go into the palace now!"

Li Youde took her and the little princess into the carriage and escorted them out of the princess's mansion.

However, the carriage did not go far before it was stuck on the official road.

The little princess is in critical condition, and her face has turned purple.

The princess' face turned pale with anxiety. She shouted sternly, "Li Youde, quickly order someone to clear the road. If anything happens to my daughter, I'll make you pay with your life!"

Li Youde was also anxious, but there was no way to disperse the crowded people.

He had no choice but to speak: "Princess, can I take you and the little princess into the palace through the small path?"

The eldest princess looked down at her daughter in her arms and agreed with difficulty.

She sat on the horse and followed Li Youde to the small path.

However, as soon as they turned into the alley, sharp feather arrows shot towards them.

Li Youde controlled the horse with one hand and wielded his sword with the other to block the arrows.

The eldest princess hid behind him, her face anxiously yelling: "Li Youde, be careful!"

"Puff!" The feather arrow pierced his shoulder, and the pain made his eyebrows tightly twisted together.

But he didn't hesitate at all and continued to run forward rapidly.

As the palace gate was approaching, Li Youde's body was already shot with several feather arrows.

He tried hard not to fall down, and with a pale face, he comforted the princess: "It will be here soon, don't worry, Your Highness!"

When the princess saw that Li Youde was almost pricked like a hedgehog, she burst into tears.

She said anxiously: "Give me the reins, I will control the horse, quickly!"

Li Youde handed her the reins and his head immediately tilted down.

The eldest princess was also an excellent rider when she was young. Now that she was in control of the horse, she rushed directly into the palace gate like an arrow from a bow.

Many royal guards responded in time and engaged in a fierce battle with the men in black hiding in the dark.

The eldest princess galloped all the way, and only when she reached the outside of Emperor Sheng'an's bedroom did she pull the reins of her horse tightly.

"Eldest sister!" Upon hearing the news, Emperor Sheng An ran out to greet her with a look of shock and anger on his face.

The eldest princess spoke first: "Don't worry about me, Commander Li is seriously injured!"

Lin Yiwan quickly helped the unconscious Li Youde down, and saw that his chest and back had been pierced by several feather arrows.
