Newly married in the bridal chamber, the regent has collapsed

The blade pointed directly at Emperor Anqing. The incident happened so fast that the royal guards who were hiding in the dark did not react at all.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

Young Master Lan Ting looked at the sword that was about to pierce the emperor's chest, his heart froze, and he dodged to block it.

"Pfft-"

It was the sound of a sword piercing into flesh.

A trace of blood overflowed from the corner of Mr. Lanting's mouth, and the blood stained his veil red. Emperor Anqing looked at this scene in disbelief, his eyes were filled with shock.

"You are……"

Emperor Anqing made a sound in confusion, but the next moment, he was pushed behind by Mr. Lanting.

"Your Majesty, don't ask so many questions, just hide!"

Emperor Anqing was taken aback for a moment, and when he looked up, there was a man stabbing himself with a sword.

The sword goes slanted.

Emperor Anqing came back to his senses, dodged and rolled to the side.

Several men in black wrestled with the late royal guards, and the sound of sword clashing instantly filled the banquet.

Seeing this, the people below fled in panic. Su Xuanmao looked at this scene in surprise, and thought inwardly.

"Father!"

The most urgent task is to protect the father first.

But before he got close, a sharp sword with a cold light appeared in front of his eyes.

Su Xuanmao was forced to stop, and looked at the man in black in disbelief.

"Who are you and why did you assassinate Gu?"

Ye Lan looked at Su Xuanmao with the eyes of a fool, but said nothing.

It's ridiculous, do you need a reason to kill someone?
Seeing that the man in black directly pointed the blade at his face without saying a word, Su Xuanmao also knew that this man must want his own life, so he started to fight without talking nonsense.

When Emperor Anqing saw the royal guards flashing out, he frowned when he saw the personal guards coming in front of him.

Mr. Lanting thought that those two men in black were a threat to Emperor Anqing.

The expression on his face became anxious in an instant, but he was wearing a veil, so his expression was invisible to others, except that those narrow and attractive red phoenix eyes were slightly red, full of worry and concern.

It made Emperor Anqing's ice-cold heart soften instantly.

"Take him with you."

Emperor Anqing knew what was in the mind of the son who sacrificed his life to save him, and ordered to the two guards.

"Subordinates obey."

Mr. Lanting was stunned: "You guys, don't come here, although, although I'm just an ordinary person from the rivers and lakes..."

Emperor Anqing thought he was a young master from a family in the south of the Yangtze River, but he was just an ordinary person.

A trace of curiosity suddenly rose in my heart.

Just now when this young man was desperate to save him, the veil covering his face was slightly blown by the wind, and he could even see the looming snow-white skin inside.

His skin is probably a little more delicate than a woman's.

Emperor Anqing's eyes dimmed, and when the dark guard brought the two of them to a place, he saw Mr. Lanting's blank expression, so he knew what was going on in his heart.

"That was my secret guard just now, not the assassin who assassinated me."

Young Master Lanting came back to his senses and shook his head in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, the common people thought it was an assassin."

Emperor Anqing noticed the wound on his chest: "You just blocked a sword for me."

"You are the emperor, and the common people will sacrifice their lives for the world if they block the sword for you. This is what I, a person in the world, should do!"

Under the veil, there seemed to be a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, looming and indistinct.

Emperor Anqing's eyes dimmed: "You blocked the sword for me because of this?"

Mr. Lanting's lips were pale, and golden sore medicine had been sprinkled on his chest, "Your Majesty, yes, it's because of this."

Emperor Anqing actually felt a trace of disappointment in his heart for no reason.

"Take off the veil, you're stained with blood."

The emperor spoke coldly.

"okay."

Mr. Lanting didn't think much, he thought to himself why the emperor is so squeamish and afraid of blood.

The moment he took off the veil, an astonishing face appeared in front of his eyes.

What a face it is.

Her brows are lightly frowned, her skin is as white as snow, she looks more delicate than a woman, her pair of red phoenix eyes are raised up, her nose hangs down, and her black hair is a little disheveled because of the fight just now, which adds a bit of beauty.

Emperor Anqing was stunned.

He has never seen such stunning...

Seeing Emperor Anqing's stunned look, Mr. Lanting was even more shocked. Could it be that his face was also stained with blood?

Just as he was about to speak, he walked towards Emperor Anqing when the wound on his chest was involved, causing him to gasp in pain.

Knowing that his reaction was totally out of character for an emperor, Emperor Anqing immediately returned to his original state.

And noticed the strangeness of Mr. Lanting.

Just as he was about to say something, the secret guard who had just sent the two to a safe place suddenly stepped out.

"Report to the emperor, those assassins have already left, and their goal does not seem to be your life, the emperor."

Emperor Anqing's attention was instantly diverted.

"Their goal is not my life, what is that?"

"Back to the emperor, when the subordinates saw those men in black fighting with His Highness the Crown Prince, they didn't seem to use all their strength."

Emperor Anqing frowned: "How do you say that?"

"Back to the emperor, my subordinates suspect that those assassins may want to rescue Chen Shangshu."

Emperor Anqing pondered: "This possibility is indeed very high."

Seeing that they hesitated to speak, Emperor Anqing frowned: "If you have anything else to say, you might as well just say it, I won't blame you."

These hidden guards are only loyal to Emperor Anqing, and Emperor Anqing believes in them wholeheartedly. After all, if he dies, none of these hidden guards will survive.

The hidden guards looked at each other, and finally spoke out.

"Reporting to the emperor, the subordinates believe that this matter may have something to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Saying that, the hidden guards took out a stack of blood-stained papers from their hands.

"what is this?"

"Your Majesty might as well take a look for yourself."

Emperor Anqing took the paper suspiciously, his eyes had just scanned the first line, his expression was gloomy as if water was about to drip.

"Where did this thing come from?"

The two dark guards didn't dare to take a breath, but the emperor's order must not be violated, so they opened their mouths and said:

"It fell from His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince was fighting with the assassins, so he didn't notice this thing falling from his body."

Upon hearing that it fell from Su Xuanmao's body, Emperor An Qing's eyes seemed to be filled with endless anger.

"I want to ask him personally, by the way, have you found out what I sent you to investigate?"

On that day, Emperor An Qing always felt that the matter of Chen Jian was not that simple, so he re-investigated the matter without telling everyone.

Sure enough, this matter is not that simple.

Not only Chen Jian was involved in buying and selling private salt, but another person was also involved.

He investigated this person, and found that this person's identity was mysterious, and the royal secret guards sent by him couldn't find anything.
