Chapter 197 Is This Endless?
The two people in the room froze for a moment.

When she came back to her senses, Song Jinyue saw that Cousin Zhi hadn't spoken, so she shouted outside: "Got it, let's go."

In the front hall of Zhang Mansion, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Xie are already waiting in the front hall.

When Zhang Dingzhi brought Song Jinyue to the front hall, everyone knelt down together, and then the servant read out the imperial decree aloud.

"By God's blessing, the emperor said, Miss Zhang's family is gentle and dignified, quiet and virtuous, and the prince is a match made in heaven. Today, I will marry you to His Royal Highness. The wedding date is scheduled to be on the sixth day of March next year. This is a gift from you."

After Director Wei read out the imperial edict, he walked up to Miss Zhang, leaned over and handed the imperial edict into Miss Zhang's hands.

Only then did everyone thank you in unison, and after receiving the imperial edict, Fang slowly got up.

Mrs. Zhang ordered the nanny to personally send Chief Wei out of the mansion.

Mrs. Xie ordered the nuns around her to dismiss all the maidservants in the front hall.

Mrs. Zhang took the imperial decree from her granddaughter, sighed, patted her on the shoulder, and comforted her: "Zhi'er, I have wronged you."

Seeing his grandmother like this, Zhang Dingzhi felt sour in his heart, he quickly shook his head, suppressing the tears in his eyes, and when he looked up, his face was already calm and without waves.

"Grandmother, you should be happy. Our family has another princess."

The old lady was teased by her granddaughter, Xie turned her body sideways, and quietly wiped her tears.

"In this way, grandma will feel at ease."

Only then did the old lady send the imperial decree to the Zhangfu ancestral hall, and Mrs. Xie accompanied her mother-in-law to the ancestral hall.

Song Jinyue sat with Cousin Zhi again, and when it was getting dark, she got up to leave.

Zhang Dingzhi personally sent her to the door.

At the time of parting, Zhang Dingzhi called his cousin and said, "Yue'er, tomorrow my aunt will ask the servant to bring the prince to Zhangfu to recuperate."

Song Jinyue was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but stepped forward, looked at the maidservants aside, and signaled everyone to back down.

Then he took cousin Zhi to the side to talk.

"Cousin Zhi, but what did my aunt find out?"

She had met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before entering the palace, and she always felt a little strange looking at him like that.

Therefore, I mentioned this matter with my grandmother and aunt.

Now that the empress can make such a decision, what is she afraid she found out secretly?
"I don't know. It's just that my aunt sent someone to deliver a letter yesterday to mention this matter. Maybe my aunt found something, but it's not convenient to say it."

Song Jinyue's eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her aunt was like this, so maybe the news she found out might be related to people in the palace.

At night, Song Jinyue tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

What happened in Zhangfu today and what Cousin Zhi mentioned are all in my mind.

Until midnight, the sound of drumming came from the long street outside, and she hadn't stopped yet.

There was a rustling sound outside the courtyard, she couldn't help raising her spirits, and listened carefully to the movement outside the courtyard.

Not long after, there was a strange noise from the roof, and Song Jinyue sat up suddenly.

His eyes were wide open, his expression solemn.

Someone on the roof!

Bang!
With a muffled sound, she suddenly lifted the brocade quilt on her body, and pushed Qiu Yun on the ground.

Qiu Yun rubbed Xiong Song's sleepy eyes and looked at her young lady.

Song Jinyue signaled her to keep silent, and then whispered, "There are people outside the yard!"

Qiu Yun was shocked, and hurriedly stood in front of her young lady, staring at the door of the room.

"Don't panic."

While comforting Qiu Yun, she motioned for her to put on her clothes.

The two of them walked out towards the window together.

Qiu Yun carefully pushed the window open a gap, the sun was covered by dark clouds, and it was pitch black outside, only a man in black crouched in the courtyard with his arms around his body.

Song Jinyue looked at Qiu Yun and motioned for her to speak up.

Qiu Yun was a little worried that this would damage her young lady's reputation, so Song Jinyue shook her head slightly, signaling that she was fine.

In this way, Qiu Yun walked to the door of the room, pushed open the door, and shouted suddenly: "Ah!"

The sound suddenly sounded, and the man in black who was squatting on the ground in the courtyard froze suddenly, but for some reason, he sat on the spot without moving a bit.

"There are assassins! Catch the assassins!"

"Come on, catch the assassin!"

"Catch assassins!"

Following Qiu Yun's roar, all the women and maids in Mingzhuxuan came out of the room, some with oil lamps in their hands, and some with sticks.

There was a strange noise from the door of Mingzhuxuan.

Song Zhi was on duty tonight, and when he heard the movement of Ming Zhuxuan, he hurried over with his people.

Nanny Yuan glanced at her young lady, hurriedly rushed from the corridor to the gate of the courtyard, and opened the gate.

Song Zhi rushed in with the guards.

The tools in everyone's hands are holding torches.

The man in black curled up, refusing to raise his head.

Song Zhi led his men forward and pulled the man in black up.

But after seeing the face of the man in black clearly, Song Zhi took a step back.

Qiu Yun blocked the door of the room, protecting her young lady behind her, and Ming Zhuxuan's mother-in-law and maids surrounded her one by one.

Song Jinyue could only look out from the gap.

Seeing Song Zhi's strange behavior, she couldn't help saying: "Song Zhi, what's wrong?"

Song Zhi just stepped forward, his face full of panic.

After a quick salute, he looked at the man in black curled up on the ground, and looked at the second lady with some embarrassment.

"Second Miss, that's..." Song Zhi paused, and then continued: "It's His Royal Highness Fifth Prince..."

Song Zhi's voice was very low.

After finishing speaking, everyone in the room was stunned.

How could it be His Highness the Fifth Prince?Why did he break into Ming Zhuxuan at night?

Or did he go to look for Miss Song Jinxi, but because it was dark he couldn't see the way clearly, so he went to the wrong yard?

Everyone guessed like this.

Song Jinyue sneered in her heart, straightened her clothes, and said flatly: "Send this assassin to my father!"

She mentioned the word assassin, not His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince.

This is to declare to the outside world that the man in black who appeared in her courtyard is not the fifth prince, but an assassin!

"This……"

Song Zhi was startled.

It can be seen that the second lady has a firm attitude, so she is going to take the fifth prince to see the Duke.

It was only when he walked up to the fifth prince that he saw bloodstains under his feet. The fifth prince gritted his teeth, frowned, and couldn't help but suck in the cold air.

Song Zhi looked at Second Miss.

Song Jinyue pushed away the people standing in front of her, and said calmly, "Go."

Only then did Song Zhi take the people away, Song Jinyue ordered the people to clean up the blood on the ground, went to the house to change clothes, and then took the people to Aunt Tian's courtyard.

Qiu Yun followed behind her young lady, and couldn't help but secretly click her tongue.

Her lady is really predictable.

She also wondered why her young lady suddenly ordered someone to place many sharp knives on the eaves two days ago.

But the lady said that because of the recent years, it is inevitable that there will be thieves.

Qiu Yun was a little confused. In that case, why didn't the courtyard next to the mansion be covered with these sharp knives?
But her lady said, there's no need to do that, because I don't have that much spare money.

She was extremely shocked when she heard it, and felt a little bit funny.

Everyone in the Duke's Mansion woke up because of the strange noise.

After Song Guanshi heard the news, he hurried to the Duke.

Song Jinyue quickened her steps and walked outside Aunt Tian's courtyard when she heard her elder sister Song Jinxi crying from inside.
