Chapter 239 Friendship Between Women
The topic about the third prince was so exciting that Lin Xiaoman listened with great interest. Although she could not let others know that the scandal between the third prince and the eunuch was created by her own hands, it did not prevent her from showing off her unfamiliarity with the world with surprise and surprise. .

With Lin Xiaoman cooperating at first glance, everyone talking was more interested.Although everyone knew that the queen must have deliberately let people spread the news, they did not prevent them from fanning the flames and helping the queen.

Why must it be the queen who has people pushing the flames from behind?What a joke, besides the queen, who in the palace would dare to mess with that enchanting concubine?If it weren't for the Queen's instruction, how could the third prince not cover up such a big scandal?

Lin Xiaoman was also very satisfied with this. She was worried that no one would appreciate her masterpiece, so someone secretly helped her, but she didn't know who the hero was.

The emperor and the queen came back half an hour later. The emperor had a gloomy look on his face, while the queen had a happy look on her face. However, she did not see the imperial concubine who had followed her out before. I don’t know if she was punished by the emperor or to take care of her, who had been exposed in the scandal. The prince is here.

No one dared to talk about it anymore, but the atmosphere at the palace banquet became very strange.

Even the performances presented by the noble ladies from various families failed to heighten the atmosphere. The ladies who had prepared carefully for today all had bad expressions and hated the third prince who caused the trouble.

After the emperor drank a few glasses of wine, he ate some more food. Even though the food was carefully prepared by Lin Xiaoman and the royal chefs, it was cold and the taste was somewhat unsatisfactory. After taking a few bites, the emperor put down his chopsticks and looked at him from time to time. Looking from where the imperial concubine had been sitting before.Anyone looking at that look would feel lonely.

When the Queen occasionally glanced at the Emperor, her eyes would inadvertently reveal a touch of disdain, which showed that even if the relationship between the couple existed, it was only superficial.

Finally, the emperor stood up, whispered a few words to the queen and left.Looking at his leaving figure, the queen was not sad, but looked visibly relaxed. This showed that she did not really hope that the emperor would stay to celebrate her birthday.

Just after the emperor left, the atmosphere at the table suddenly became much better. A lady raised her glass and was about to say a few words of birthday greetings to the queen when she suddenly heard a loud roar from outside the imperial garden: "There is an assassin!"

The voice was so high-pitched and thin that it suppressed the singing and dancing in the imperial garden. People who were familiar with it recognized that it was Eunuch He who was serving the emperor, and immediately ran out.

There are assassins trying to assassinate the emperor. If you perform well at this time, even if you can't be promoted to an official position, you will definitely be rewarded. Even if there is nothing, you have saved the emperor's life. Are you worried about the lack of official luck?
But before anyone could rush out of the imperial garden gate, they were shot back by a hail of arrows. Several of those who rushed in front were hit by arrows and fell to the ground, screaming in agony for a while.

The emperor retreated to the imperial garden under the protection of his guards. Queen Lin Xiaoman's eyes showed a hint of disappointment, and she couldn't help but wonder if the assassin outside was arranged by the queen.

At the same time, a firework shot into the sky, a sharp whistle pierced the night sky, and a crackle exploded in the night sky.

Immediately afterwards, a team of guards rushed out of the Changsheng Building next to the Imperial Garden and protected the Imperial Garden. The Emperor and Queen were also protected by a group of people.

What everyone didn't expect was that there were more than a dozen guards in front of Lin Xiaoman.

After the shock, in order to survive, the unguarded officials and ladies quietly moved towards Lin Xiaoman.

Not long after, Lin Xiaoman was squeezed in, and from time to time someone would step on her foot. Lin Xiaoman grinned in pain, but she didn't even know who stepped on her foot.

Well, even if people from outside really came in, she was surrounded by so many people, and they couldn't kill her for a while.Likewise, being surrounded so tightly makes it impossible to escape even if you want to.Xu Panxia took one of Lin Xiaoman's hands and said, "Don't be afraid. The fighting outside is so fierce. I guess I'm well prepared and won't come in."

Lin Xiaoman hummed, feeling the trembling and moisture coming from Xu Panxia's small hands. Lin Xiaoman patted her hand, "Don't be afraid, even if I come in, I will protect you."

Xu Panxia didn't believe that Lin Xiaoman could protect her, but these words still moved Xu Panxia, ​​"Well, I will protect you too."

In just a few words, the two became friends of life and death.

Princess Xinyang, who was being pushed over by others, snorted coldly, as if she was disapproving of the friendship between the two. However, Princess Anyang looked at Lin Xiaoman deeply, and when Lin Xiaoman looked at her, she was still friendly. He nodded to Lin Xiaoman.

But there was still curiosity in her eyes, as if she was very interested in Lin Xiaoman, a woman who could arouse the competition among her royal brothers.

Their mothers were not favored concubines. Although they were princesses, they were often overshadowed by the queen's niece.

They used to be tolerant, but since the emperor's uncle who they grew up with left the capital two years ago because he refused to marry, they have hated Xu Panxia and want to stab her whenever they meet.

Xu Shi felt guilty, but Xu Panxia was more tolerant, which made the two princesses mistakenly think that Xu Panxia was afraid of them.

At this time, when I saw Lin Xiaoman and Xu Panxia holding hands, seemingly intimate, I wanted to share with Lin Xiaoman what Xu Panxia had done, so that she would know what a shameless woman Xu Panxia was.

But there were too many people around and it was too noisy to talk. Princess Anyang nodded slightly to Lin Xiaoman and said, "If nothing happens tomorrow, I and Xinyang will visit the princess's mansion."

Lin Xiaoman opened her mouth slightly. How long had it been and she still wanted to visit?Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to make it through tonight?
Lin Xiaoman's surprise was regarded as acquiescence in Princess Anyang's eyes, and she did not believe that Lin Xiaoman would refuse her visit.

Princess Xinyang also nodded to Lin Xiaoman when she heard this, and then looked at Xu Panxia with disgust, as if to say, why did Lin Xiaoman get so close to her?

At this time, the guards who were sent to protect Lin Xiaoman were speechless looking at the people who squeezed into the protective circle and Lin Xiaoman who was staggering around.

Although it is confirmed that Lin Xiaoman is safe, if he is stepped on and injured by these people, will the prince blame them for not protecting him?But she's a princess and an official's wife, so neither of them dares to pull her out, so it shouldn't matter, right?
At this time, the people in the Royal Garden could not see what was going on outside the Royal Garden. They could only hear the loud shouts of killing. Everyone was frightened and even wanted to dig a hole to hide themselves first.

Those who had wanted to rush forward to protect them before saw the colleagues in front who had been shot and fell to the ground lost their courage. Meritorious service is important, but life is more important.

Fortunately, the fighting outside soon subsided, and two generals with blood on their bodies rushed in from outside.With everyone looking in panic, the two of them knelt down on one knee before the emperor, "Your Majesty, Tang Hai, and Deng Pengfei, who came to the rescue late, please forgive me, Your Majesty and the Queen!"
