Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 222 Caught Someone

"Stop talking nonsense, just say what you want." Cheng Qing looked at the person who came, and after seeing his true face, he didn't recognize him.

"There are two princesses and one princess, what can I do?" The leading woman in palace maid's clothes said with a smile: "I am kind-hearted. Seeing the two of you like this, I want to help you and bring them together. Just help me to rest."

"It turns out you have good intentions. I thought your master wanted to kill us. I was wrong. I'm sorry." When Cheng Qing said 'kill', his tone was like saying that the weather is very good today. He sat next to her. Zhao Wuyan couldn't help but tremble.

The woman was also a ruthless person. When faced with Cheng Qing's words, her face didn't even change. She smiled and said, "How could it be? The princess is really overthinking. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, let us send you off." Go and have a good rest.”

"Wait a minute." Cheng Qing said.

"Do you have any other instructions from the princess?"

"It's nothing, it's just that we're not tired either." Cheng Qing stood up with a smile.

The woman's expression changed drastically, and she pointed at her and said, "You haven't been tricked?!"

"Where are the Imperial Guards?!" Cheng Qing shouted.

The Royal Forest Army guarding not far away ran over immediately.

Cheng Qing said with a smile: "If you don't let go, maybe I can let you live."

"You obviously ate these pastries, you must be bluffing, come on!"

After the woman finished speaking, she took the lead and stabbed Cheng Qing with her sword.

Cheng Qing dodged for a moment, held her sword between his two fingers, looked at her with a smile, and said, "You underestimate me too much."

After saying that, he used a clever force on his fingers and broke the blade.

Then the sword blade came out of his hand, passed in front of the women who rushed towards Zhao Wuyan, and stabbed into the pavilion pillar with a "Duo" sound.

The woman's face was ugly, and she knew she was in trouble, so she took out the poison from her waist and prepared to commit suicide by taking the poison.

Cheng Qing reacted very quickly, grabbed her hand and pulled it down. When she let go due to pain, he took the medicine from her hand.

"what!!!"

The woman was so painful that she was sweating, and her face turned pale instantly.

Several others were also about to take poison, but Zhao Wuyan suddenly stood up and swept over with a sweep of his legs, knocking all the poison out of their hands.

At this moment, the Royal Forest Army also ran in and arrested them all.

Cheng cleaned up his clothes, walked up to the leader, pinched her chin, raised her head, and said with a smile: "I sent you here because you thought you could do something to me by putting some poison. Your master looks down on me too much."

"Commander, what should we do with them?" the imperial guard asked respectfully.

Cheng Qing let go of the woman's chin, straightened up, and said: "Take her to the prison, and then go to the Criminal Department to file a record. Let's say they intend to assassinate the princess and the princess."

"Yes, keep it."

The imperial guards escorted the people down, and the princesses and princes outside were all stunned.

Cheng Qing turned to look at Zhao Wuyan and said with a smile: "Yan'er, you're not bad at learning Kung Fu, and your reaction is also good."

Zhao Wuyan laughed happily when she heard her praise herself, and said: "That's because my sister taught me well."

Cheng Qing said with a smile: "Keep working hard, and we will see who dares to easily bully our little Yan'er in the future." "Yeah." Zhao Wuyan agreed happily.

"What happened?" Concubine Shu walked in under the stars and the moon. When she saw the sword blade stuck in the pillar and the hilt on the ground, she was frightened and her face changed greatly. She asked: " What's going on? How could it happen like this?"

Cheng Qing looked at Concubine Shu. She was an iconic beauty. She could not tell her age, and there were almost no wrinkles on her face. Her demeanor and the accumulation of time made her extraordinary.

"I've met Concubine Shu." Cheng Qing saluted.

"There is no need to be polite." Concubine Shu gave her a weak hand, showing her nobility.

Cheng Qing stood up straight and said: "My Majesty, there has been an assassin here. Why not temporarily suspend the garden party? I think I should also go to the emperor to report the situation here. Why don't you come with us?"

Concubine Shu sighed: "This won't work. There are so many people at the garden party and I need to arrange it. I can't just leave like this."

"Then it's hard work for Concubine Shu." Cheng Qing said with a smile.

"You should, go ahead." Concubine Shu said understandingly.

Cheng Qing nodded and passed by Concubine Shu. When he got to the back, he looked at Zhao Wushuang and whispered to her: "You and Qiu Yan stay with Yan'er here. If it doesn't work, just take them to Qingcheng Palace temporarily. I will go there." Looking for you."

Zhao Wushuang nodded.

Cheng Qing walked outside.

Something flickered in Concubine Shu's eyes, so quickly that Zhao Wuyan, who was in front of her, didn't even notice it.

……

In the emperor's bedroom.

Since the emperor became ill, all the memorials that must be handled by the emperor himself have been placed here.

King Anhe also moved here from the imperial study room so that he could discuss issues with the emperor at any time.

After Cheng Qing came in, he saw An and Wang reading the memorial, while the emperor was resting with his eyes closed.

"The minister has met the emperor, and the daughter has met the adoptive father."

"Qing'er, there's no need to be polite. I heard that something happened again in the imperial garden. What happened?" The emperor asked with his eyes closed.

Cheng Qing reported: "Back to the emperor, someone gave me some cartilage powder with the intention of taking me away. My maid found out. I followed the plan and caught the poisoner."

"What? You are the commander of the Royal Forest Army, and you let the assassin into the garden party?" Although the emperor asked, his tone did not mean to blame Cheng Qing. Instead, he wanted to know what was wrong with this?
Cheng Qing understood what he meant. On the way here, she also thought about the events before and after, and discovered one of the strange points. She said: "Back to the emperor, Wei Chen found this strange. Although I am the commander of the Royal Forest Army, I did not attend the garden party." Before we started, Wei Chen had not received any news that a garden party was going to be held in the Imperial Garden, and it was the Eighth Princess who told Wei Chen about this."

Anhe Wang raised his head from the memorial and said: "If you want to hold a garden party, it will be a big news. You can't not receive any news."

Cheng Qing guessed: "I heard that the emperor just informed Concubine Shu yesterday. Maybe she was busy sending invitations and arranging garden parties and forgot to inform me?"

"Don't pretend to be crazy. Don't think that I don't know. The palace is now under your control. You don't even know it. It can be seen that she deliberately concealed it from you." The emperor opened his eyes and looked at her.

Cheng Qing touched his nose and did not deny it. At this time, denial actually didn't make much sense. "Your Majesty, this matter depends on me. The moment I knew there was a garden party, I should have taken precautions."

"I can't rely on you for this matter, so don't put the blame on yourself." The emperor said.
