Chapter 235 The Concubine Confesses
"No, there are assassins!"

The patrolling guards instantly noticed Pei Mo's figure, and they were like a bird of fright for a moment.

Pei Mo heard the guard's exclamation, and his feet kept moving.

The guard rang the gong on his body, and the ear-piercing sound alarmed more people around him, and candles were lit in many palaces.

There were more and more people. From the eaves, Pei Mo saw guards in yellow armor who were about to form a circle around him.

Pei Mo thought for two seconds, then turned around and flew over the eaves, stepped on the head of a guard with a wonderful lightness skill, and jumped up to another eaves with strength.

"presumptuous!"

the guard yelled.

Being too far away from the palace gate, Pei Mo simply went the opposite way and returned to the deep palace, even tending to lead the guards to the Huichun Palace where Concubine Rong was.

"Not good, the assassin ran to the southwest, hurry up!"

There are three palaces in the southwest, among which there is the Hall of Rejuvenation.

Pei Mo's lightness skills are so good that the guards can only rely on the moonlight to see his shadow printed on the wall when he flies to track his figure from a distance.

The timing was just right, the guard saw a figure land on the roof of the main hall of Huichun Hall, and then disappeared.

"No, the assassin has entered the Palace of Rejuvenation! Hurry up and protect Concubine Rong!"

The guards held torches and filed in. Pei Mo, who was hiding in the gap, smiled. Seeing that the moon was once again hidden in the thick clouds, he left towards the nearest exit with his ingenious body skills and lightness.

All of a sudden, the three palaces in the southwest were brightly lit, surrounded by a large number of guards.

"Your Majesty, it's too bad, the assassin has sneaked into the Palace of Rejuvenation!" the maid said in panic.

Concubine Rong asked in horror in her pajamas, "How did this happen, where did the assassin come from, did you find it?"

The voice of the inner guard came from outside the door, "Concubine Rong Gui, I saw the assassin sneaking into the palace with my own eyes, and I hoped that the lady would open the door. Let the servants go in to find out, and ask the lady to open the door."

Piandian was also investigated, and Murong Qing felt a little thumped, that assassin could be Pei Mo.

So she pretended to yawn, and asked the maid sleepily, "What's going on, why did everyone wake up after a good sleep."

This is also the first time the palace maid has seen such a big movement, "I heard that an assassin has sneaked into the Palace of Rejuvenation, and the guards are searching the whole palace. Fortunately, I heard that no one was injured."

Murong Qing asked in astonishment, "Has the assassin been found? It won't be dangerous for a poor concubine to live here!"

The maid said, "The assassin hasn't been found yet, but the general's wife can rest assured that the palace is heavily guarded and will definitely protect the lady."

Hearing that no one was found, Murong Qing put his heart in his stomach, "Okay then."

At this time, she had a flash of inspiration, and just took advantage of the chaos to enter the imperial concubine's bedroom to have a look, maybe she could find something useful.

"What about the empress? The poor concubine is really scared, the empress is blessed with great blessings, and the poor concubine wants to stay by the empress's side."

As Murong Qing said, he looked towards the main hall of the noble concubine.

The maid didn't dare to offend Murong Qing who is the general's wife, and felt that what she said was reasonable, so she nodded, "Okay, the general's wife will come with the slaves."

Because it was June, the imperial concubine was afraid of the heat, so she put on light pajamas early, and the wound where the second prince was bled was faintly visible.

The imperial concubine asked the maid to put on a robe for her. Because the movements were slow, the guards outside the door became more and more suspicious, and the knocking and urging sound became more and more urgent.

As soon as Murong Qing arrived at the main hall, he saw the noble concubine walking down the steps flusteredly wrapped in a robe, still cursing.

"You useless guards! Why can't you even catch an assassin, and let people come to the Palace of Rejuvenation in this palace? What a bunch of trash!"

Because of the fright, the imperial concubine's scolding was a bit broken, but it didn't prevent her from swearing.

And the maid following behind the noble concubine is holding the lacquer box that Murong Qing saw during the day!
How weird!Murong Qing thought.

Could this lacquer box be more important than the life of the imperial concubine? The maid did not go to help the imperial concubine, but hugged a box tightly. It seems that the imperial concubine personally ordered it, otherwise the maid would not be able to make such a move.

Thinking about it, Murong Qing stepped forward to get closer to the noble concubine, and he could also get closer to the lacquer box.

"Bold slave, I am going to go to the emperor to sue you, yet I dare to despise me, my noble concubine, it is so difficult that I can harbor assassins!"

What a guard broke into the door before the strap of her robe was fastened. If she was slower, her wound would be seen by others!
The more the concubine thought about it, the angrier she became, and the faster she spit out the curse words, because she had bled too much in the past few days, and she hadn't recovered yet, her already vain foot sprained, and she was about to fall off the steps.

"what--"

"Miss, be careful!"

At the critical moment, Murong Qing stepped forward to catch the imperial concubine without even thinking about it.

Fortunately, she was able to catch the imperial concubine with a little gait, otherwise she would even be knocked to the ground.

"lady!"

All the people present were sweating, after all, one was the general's wife who was pregnant with six armors, and the other was the honored concubine.

These minions cannot bear responsibility for anyone who hurts them.

In fact, as long as Murong Qing knew about it, she would not want to save the imperial concubine, she was sharp-eyed when she discovered the waist plate on the imperial concubine's belt.

As long as she has a waist card, it means that she can enter and leave the palace at will, and will never be restrained again.

Murong Qing supported the imperial concubine's waist, quickly tore off her waist badge and stuffed it into the sleeve.

Ginkgo next to the noble concubine was startled, he was relieved to see the noble concubine being supported, but saw Murong Qing stuffing something into his sleeve in a daze.

Murong Qing supported the imperial concubine to stand firm, and asked with concern, "Did the imperial concubine fall down?"

The imperial concubine panted, and sincerely thanked her.

She knew that if it wasn't for Murong Qing, she would really roll down the steps, and when the emperor intervened, she might even expose her injuries.

"I'm fine, thanks to my wife for saving me."

But that ginkgo shouted, "Your Majesty, this servant saw that this woman stole something from your Majesty and was stuffing it into her sleeves, come and search her!"

The imperial concubine didn't even remember that there was something hanging on the robe she was wearing, she only knew that without Murong Qing she would be injured.

Murong Qing put on an innocent look, her face was full of anger and shock, but her hand was still supporting the imperial concubine.

The imperial concubine glanced at Murong Qing gratefully, and reprimanded loudly, "Shut up, when the assassin comes, Jin Yu will know to wake me up, where were you at that time? How dare you slander the general's wife for stealing things, it's a day-to-day business Don't do it, I only know money, I think you are crazy about money, I have nothing to take from me, get out, shameful thing!"

Ginkgo didn't dare to quibble, but the dissatisfaction on her face was visible to the naked eye.

The imperial concubine was really angry. She used to think that Ginkgo was her dowry, and she was tolerant of her, but this assassination incident made her feel cold towards Ginkgo.
