Chapter 9: A dark and windy night!
Hu Mansion.
"Why did the Second Prince visit you so late at night? We need to keep a close eye on the situation and be careful not to let anyone know."
Xiao Ding shook his head disapprovingly and said, "Grandpa, you are worrying too much. Even if Xiao Yan has many eyes and ears, I'm afraid he can't get his hands into your house, right?"
"I came here tonight for no other reason than to ask Grandpa, when can we bring down Xiao Yan?"
"Now his arrogance in the court is getting more and more arrogant. If we don't fight back, he really thinks we are soft persimmons!"
Hu Zhenghe sighed, "Ah! I know this, but after Xiao Yan became regent, my power was greatly restricted!"
"Now we still have to see how he looks. If we want to take action, we have to take it step by step. It would be better to start with the people around him first."
Xiao Ding fell into deep thought after hearing this.
There is a severe drought in the north now. If the disaster relief is disrupted it will be a good breakthrough. However, if the information is leaked, it will be despised by the world.
The only thing we can do is to slowly eliminate the people around him. As long as we let our own people infiltrate all positions, no matter how capable he is, he won't be able to cause any big waves.
"According to my mother, Ye Youyue has been exposed and even lost her virginity to Xiao Yan."
"This useless thing can't even accomplish such a small thing. If she reveals us, we will be in trouble. We can't keep this girl."
Then he looked at Hu Zhenghe and made a gesture of wiping his neck!
Hu Zhenghe also frowned. This matter had far-reaching implications. If it were really leaked, Xiao Yan would definitely be on guard in every way.
"Then kill me!"
Hu Ding nodded and said, "You can kill him, but you can't leave any traces. That's the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace, and it's heavily guarded now."
Hu Zhenghe said with a smile: "Strict? Don't worry, the East Palace and I are defenseless."
"Second Prince, it's a dark and nighty night, so why not wait for a better day? I'll go and make the arrangements right away!"
Hu Zhenghe dared to say this because the Eastern Palace had indeed been defenseless against him before.
But things are different now. Xiao Yan understood his situation since he came here through time. How could he not make arrangements?
The commander of the Eastern Palace Prince Guard is Hu Zhenghe's man, otherwise Ye Youyue would not have been able to enter the Eastern Palace so easily.
However, now Ye Youyue has not only become Xiao Yan's woman, but Xiao Yan has also naturally discovered that she is the chess piece that controls the Prince's Guard.
Now that Xiao Yan was the regent, the Prince's Guards were replaced by the Imperial Guards, who were absolutely the confidants of the royal family.
late at night.
The East Palace is no longer brightly lit; instead, it is filled with silence. However, this silence is also eerie.
The second half of the night is when people are most sleepy and it is easy to be careless.
“Collapse, collapse, collapse!”
A few unnoticed sounds came from the room. Ye Youyue was already fast asleep at this time. Although she lost her virginity to Xiao Yan, he never came to see her once afterwards.
Suddenly, Ye Youyue opened her eyes, then covered herself with the quilt and quickly crawled under the bed!
Because she heard a slight sound coming from the room.
Through the window, Ye Youyue saw several shadows wandering in front of her window.
After a while, the door of his room was opened.
"Who is this and what does he want to do?"
"Could it be that the prince sent someone to kill me?"
Ye Youyue was extremely nervous at this moment and didn't even dare to breathe.
I saw several people quietly coming to my bed. Looking at the pairs of feet in front of me, Ye Youyue covered her mouth tightly with both hands, not daring to make a sound.
But her trembling body betrayed her inner feelings.
“Squeak!”
“Squeak!”
As the sound of knife strikes rang out, Ye Youyue felt very lucky. If she had not been careful, she would have been killed by the knife by now.
"No one! The intelligence is wrong, retreat!"
These people are also decisive in their moves and will kill with one move. Now that there is no one around, they will retreat immediately!
But it was too late. I saw a lot of torches suddenly lit up outside, illuminating the entire night sky.
"Listen up everyone inside, come out and surrender or you will die!"
After hearing this, they knew they had no way out today.
"kill!"
Immediately, several people rushed out to kill, but how could Xiao Yan not make preparations?
I saw a lot of archers coming out from the darkness and shooting at the few people!
Two people fell down instantly.
The remaining man was shot in all four limbs by arrows. He wanted to commit suicide by taking poison, but Duan Tianya came forward and removed his jaw.
Then he pulled out a poisonous fang from his mouth.
"If you fall into the hands of my Jinyiwei, you will have a hard time dying. Take him away and interrogate him strictly to find out who is behind this."
Duan Tianya looked at Xiao Yan on the side.
"Your Highness, Miss Ye is probably..."
Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "Don't worry, she's very smart, she will be fine!"
Xiao Yan stepped into the house!
Looking at the quilt that was chopped into pieces by the sword, Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Come out, the person has been arrested!"
After hearing Xiao Yan's voice and considering the conversation outside the house just now, Ye Youyue was sure that it was not Xiao Yan who wanted to kill her.
Then he slowly came out from under the bed, and as soon as he raised his head, Xiao Yan smiled.
Because the bed was not cleaned properly, Ye Youyue was covered in dust and dirt.
The white shroud he was wearing was also dirty at this time, and he looked like a little beggar.
Seeing him still trembling and dirty, with a pair of pitiful big eyes looking at him, Xiao Yan suddenly felt distressed.
After all, this is his woman, and now that she is being bullied, the anger in his heart is naturally self-evident.
"Duan Tianya, I want the news today. No matter if he is Deadpool or not, I want to know who did it today."
Duan Tianya felt unprecedented anger from Xiao Yan, and he knew that Xiao Yan was really angry.
"Yes, I obey your order!"
After saying that, he turned around and left. After turning on the lights in the house, everyone tactfully left the room.
At this time, only Xiao Yan and Ye Youyue were left in the room, staring at each other.
Ye Youyue, who had survived the disaster, was already sitting on the ground exhausted. Seeing this, Xiao Yan stepped forward, picked her up, put her on the bed, and put his clothes on her.
Ye Youyue was quite touched.
"You are very smart and alert, otherwise no one could have saved you today."
After taking a breath, Ye Youyue finally recovered.
"Thank you for saving my life, Your Highness! Can you guess who wants to attack me?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan stood up and paced around the room.
"It's just a few people, Hu Zhenghe, Hu Shanxiang, the Second Prince, or... me!"
"I don't need to talk about the first few people. You know their relationship better than I do. It doesn't matter who kills you."
"If you think that I killed you, you don't have to, because you are my woman now. How can I bear to kill such a beauty?"
As he spoke, he gently pinched Ye Youyue's chin with his fingers!
Although the person in front of me is dirty, a person's beauty cannot be concealed.
After hearing Xiao Yan's analysis, Ye Youyue's world collapsed. In fact, she also had some guesses in her mind.
But she didn't want to believe it. Hu Shanxiang raised her, so why would she treat her like this?
"No, that's impossible!"
"Your Highness has done me a favor, why would you kill me?"
