Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 625

In the end, he barely managed to draw with Ghost Hand. Ghost Hand said, "Not bad. You don't usually train your martial arts much, but you can still reach this level. You're already top-notch."

Murong Yu's face darkened. "You didn't go all out."

"Hmph, if I hurt you, Little Yue'er will be sad. Didn't you promise her not to be too competitive? Being stubborn and competitive will not end well." Ghost Hand was older than him and immediately began to reprimand him in the manner of an elder.

Murong Yu couldn't save face; after all, he was the emperor.

Ghost Hand showed him no mercy whatsoever.

"Your Majesty." Yun Xiyue came over, her eyes full of nervousness.

"It's just a friendly spar. Master is very powerful. Even if I lose to him, I won't feel ashamed." Murong Yu's heart melted instantly when he saw her worry about him. At first, he didn't want to lose to Ghost Hand because Ghost Hand was better than him in every way, and he was indeed unconvinced.

He also had feelings for A-Yue.

Therefore, Murong Yu was always afraid that A Yue would be taken away by the ghost hand.

People might not believe it, but he's an emperor, ruling the entire Xia dynasty. What doesn't he have? Why is he so insecure?

If other emperors knew that a woman was so insecure, they would only laugh at her for being incompetent.

But he was plagued by anxiety, constantly fearing that A-Yue would leave him...

But now he felt much more at ease because Yun Xiyue ran towards him first.

Next, we'll practice archery on horseback.

They played for a while before returning to the palace.

"Your Majesty, Prince Rui has been assassinated and is now seriously injured. The Empress Dowager has ordered that a renowned physician be summoned to Prince Rui's residence immediately." At this moment, a guard rode up to report.

Murong Yu looked at Ghost Hand, "I'll trouble you, Master, to make this trip."

“Didn’t you want to get rid of him? Now that he’s been assassinated, isn’t that even better?” Ghost Hand said.

“But if I do that, my mother will resent me.” Murong Yu was helpless. It would be easy for him to kill Prince Rui, but doing so would make many things go out of control.

He needs to consider the bigger picture.

If Prince Rui dies, not only will the Empress Dowager think he is cold-blooded and heartless for not saving someone in distress.

Even the people of the world would think so, and other princes might take advantage of the situation to rebel.

“Master…” Yun Xiyue looked at him.

Ghost Hand thought about it carefully and didn't say anything because he felt that what he said made sense. "Hmph, for A-Yue's sake, this divine doctor will go."

Outside the palace, Murong Yu and Yun Xiyue went to Prince Rui's residence together.

In this way, if Prince Rui dies, it cannot be said that they stood by and did not come to his aid.

Prince Rui's Mansion.

Zhang Chuhuan, heavily pregnant, sat outside watching basin after basin of bloody water, crying in fear.

"Your Highness, the Emperor and Empress have arrived. They've brought along the legendary healer, Ghost Hand."

Zhang Chuhuan hurriedly stood up to greet him, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty the Empress..."

"Excuse me!"

"How is Prince Rui?" Yun Xiyue stepped forward to help her up.

Zhang Chuhuan cried, "I don't know, the wound is very deep... Your Majesty, I beg you to make the prince decide the matter."

Prince Rui was assassinated.

The person behind it all is still unknown.

Murong Yu said, "I have already ordered an investigation. Since you are pregnant, you should go and rest first and take good care of yourself."

This may be the only bloodline of Prince Rui.

Zhang Chuhuan felt terrible.

Yunxi Yue had someone invite Madam Zhang to accompany her.

The ghostly hand rushed into the house to rescue the injured.

An hour later, the person was pulled back from the brink of death. The imperial physician came out and spoke with great excitement about how the divine doctor had saved the person.

“Prince Rui is alright now, so the Empress and I will return to the palace first. You must take good care of the Prince and ensure nothing goes wrong,” Murong Yu said, rising to his feet.

"Your Majesty, the assassin who killed the Prince has been found." At this moment, Leng Yan came in to report.
