Crazy criticizes Emperor Ji for marrying the regent and becoming more powerful

After Nan Xi got Nangong Rui's approval, she went ahead and did it boldly.

It's a pity that Nan Xi's conversation with Nangong Rui today was overheard by a young eunuch in Chengqian Palace. As soon as Nan Xi left Chengqian Palace, he ran to another place to talk to his master. Reported.

Dividing line--
Xia Houqi was so angry at Nan Xi last time that he simply reported being sick at home so as not to be upset when he saw Nan Xi when he went to court.

After hiding in the palace for two days, Xia Houqi ran back to the palace.

He should have known that Nan Xi said those hurtful words just to keep him away, and he just happened to play into her hands.

So after he figured it out, he ran to the palace in a hurry. Unexpectedly, he failed and was told that Nan Xi was at the Hubu, so Xiahou Qi went to the Hubu again.

However, after arriving at the Ministry of Household Affairs, the guard at the door said that Her Royal Highness Emperor Ji had left half an hour ago.

Xia Houqi couldn't help but frown:
Wouldn't that just miss him?It was half an hour ago when he came out of the palace. Counting the time, Nan Xi should have returned to the palace by now.

He did not complain, turned around and got into the carriage, and then asked the coachman to drive to the palace.

"Has Di Ji returned to the palace?"

Xiahou Qi's car stopped at the palace gate. He opened the curtain and asked the guard at the palace gate.

"Back to your lord, the emperor left the palace early in the morning and has not come back yet." The guard answered truthfully.

"You said that the Emperor Ji has not returned to the palace yet? But you failed to see the Emperor Ji come back?" Xia Houqi asked immediately.

"I don't dare. I've been waiting at the palace gate all day long. I didn't even go out to pay respects. The carriages coming and going have to be checked. If the Emperor Ji returns to the palace, I will definitely know." The guard quickly explained.

Hearing what the guard said, Xia Houqi's expression became even more grim.

It had been an hour since he had been going back and forth. No matter how slow the carriage moved, he should have arrived at the palace long ago. There was no way he could make it back!unless--

Something happened on the way!
Xia Houqi didn't waste any more time and returned to look for traces of Nan Xi's carriage.

Finally, Xia Houqi found a blood-stained jade pendant at a corner of the street.

This jade pendant is exactly the half that Nan Xi never leaves, and Xia Houqi also has half of it.

After picking up this jade pendant, he was almost certain that Nan Xi was in danger!

He no longer hesitated and immediately summoned two secret guards and asked them to find out what happened!Be sure to find Di Ji’s whereabouts as soon as possible!

At the same time, Nan Xi was hiding in a dilapidated temple, waiting for an opportunity to fight back.

She got on the carriage from the Ministry of Household Affairs and on the way back to the palace, she noticed something was wrong and became defensive. It was not until the carriage entered a remote alley that Nan Xi bit her finger and cut off half of her finger. He took off the jade pendant from his waist, then smeared it with blood and threw it out of the carriage window.

Sure enough, not long after she threw the jade pendant, the carriage stopped. When Nan Xi got out of the carriage, the driver had disappeared. There were five men in black standing in front of her, each with their face covered and holding something in their hands. He was holding a long knife and looked very vicious.

When Nan Xi saw them, she knew they were being plotted. Without any nonsense, she directly pulled out the soft sword from her waist and started fighting with them.

Nan Xi has never told anyone that she knows martial arts and can also use a sword. Ever since she started investigating the accounts of the household department, she has had this soft sword wrapped around her waist just to cope with the current scene.

The people who came to assassinate Nan Xi didn't seem to think that she was prepared. During the fight, she accidentally injured two of her companions. After stabbing the people, Nan Xi did not fight with them, but chose to escape.

Being outnumbered is not a wise move. What she should do now is to find a safe place and wait for people from the palace to look for her. She has not returned to the palace for a long time. Her father will definitely let people look for her. As long as she waits until It would be fine if her father's people came to find her.

But the friend arrived later than the enemy. As soon as Nan Xi hid in the temple, she was chased by the man in black.

It turned out that during the fight, Nan Xi's waist was scratched by a knife. She didn't pay attention to it, but the assassin traced it here based on the blood stains.

Seeing them chasing after her, Nan Xi showed a bloodthirsty smile, "I was careless. I didn't expect you to catch up so quickly." The man in black didn't waste any time. He went up and slashed at her, but Nan Xi just avoided it. I haven't found a chance to fight back yet.

At this moment, she heard footsteps coming from outside the temple, and she knew that her reinforcements were coming.

The three assassins who were chasing her looked at each other and were about to run away, but Nan Xi didn't give them a chance at all. While they were distracted, she directly tore through the fabric of their masks and scratched their faces. There were wounds on it.

Nan Xi's pupils dilated and she froze on the spot:

One of them she had met when she was in the household department!
And they no longer stayed and fled.

When Xia Houqi and the secret guards arrived, they saw several men in black running away in a hurry.

"Go after him, don't let him go." Xia Houqi said coldly.

"Yes--"

The secret guards responded in unison, and then they all went after the assassin.

After Nan Xi came to her senses, she put the soft sword back on her waist. She didn't want to expose her martial arts skills for the time being.

Xia Houqi was only worried about Nan Xi's safety and didn't pay much attention to her strangeness.

"Are you okay? Are you injured?" Xia Houqi looked at Nan Xi worriedly and asked, stepping forward to hold her waist.

Then I touched the bright red hand.

Damn it, they hurt her!

"I'm fine, just a little skin injury. The person who is chasing me should be from Hubu. If you follow this clue, you will get results." Nan Xi glanced at the wound on her waist, and then said to Xia Houqi nonchalantly.

"At this time, don't worry about the household affairs. Is your injury not as important as official duties?" Xia Houqi shouted directly. He was very dissatisfied with Nan Xi's lack of care for his body.

Nan Xi was stunned by Xia Houqi's roar and looked at him blankly.

Is he angry?

why?
While she was dazed, Xia Houqi hugged her sideways, carefully avoiding the wound on her waist, and strode out.

Xia Houqi brought Nan Xi back to the palace, and sent someone to inform Nangong Rui that Emperor Ji had been found. He took her back to the palace and sent Emperor Ji back to the palace tomorrow, so that Your Majesty would not have to worry.

"Your Majesty, are you, Di Ji, injured?"

When the housekeeper saw Xia Houqi coming back, he rushed to greet him, and then saw the person in his arms and the blood on the prince's hands.

"Call Feng Yue to my king's room."

"Yes, I will inform Fengyue now."

When Xia Houqi carried the person to the room, Feng Yue also hurriedly arrived.

"My subordinates have seen it."

"Treat Di Ji's wound. Her waist was scratched by a knife." Xia Houqi directly interrupted her etiquette and said coldly.

"Yes"
