Chapter 658

The empress dowager couldn't help but look away resentfully, paused, and then mercifully said to Ye Lizhi and the others in a charitable tone:

"It's cold on the ground, let's get up first."

Only then did Ye Lizhi get up with his own people, and said unhurriedly: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your understanding."

The empress dowager hummed, as if she hadn't heard the hidden sarcasm in it.

After greetings, today's meeting between the two also came to an end.

At night, An Ruhui didn't go to Yingcui Palace out of self-indulgence, but stayed in his bedroom.

After the maid changed his clothes, An Ruhui went to bed, ready to go to bed.

Who knows, but at this moment, Yao Yirou walked in holding a brand new underwear.

Facing An Ruhui's puzzled look with a vaguely repelling gaze, she said neither humble nor overbearing:
"This is done by my little girl during the day. When I went to pay my respects to the empress dowager today, before she left, the empress dowager told the little girl the measurements of her Majesty's stature and waist circumference, etc., and also rewarded the little girl with some precious materials. My little girl Since I have nothing to do, I privately made a coat for His Majesty, and I hope His Majesty will accept it with a smile."

The Empress Dowager allowed her to call herself the 'Mother Empress', but Yao Yirou did not gain any ground because of this, and she still called her the 'Empress Dowager Empress' in front of An Ruhui.

Her sensibleness undoubtedly prevented An Ruhui from being cruel to her.

He said without much interest: "Put it aside, I will wear it another day."

There was a little joy on Yirou's bright and beautiful face. After answering, he put down his clothes according to his instructions, and then walked out silently.

An Ruhui stared at the brand new bright yellow inner garment on the tray for a long time, then called his personal eunuch, and said:
"When I went to Yingcui Palace, I said that I didn't have enough underwear, so I asked the empress to help me find a way."

The emperor's other clothes were custom-made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the workmanship was extremely complicated, and it was impossible for one person to make it in one day.

Only the clothes here are not too particular, as long as the material is bright yellow, the workmanship is simple and not too time-consuming.

The little eunuch glanced at the obscene clothes just brought in, said nothing, and retreated following His Majesty's orders.

After a while, he ran back panting slightly all the way.

An Ruhui straightened up, and hurriedly asked, "What did she say?"

"Slave, slave first conveyed His Majesty's words to your majesty, and asked your majesty if you could make an inner garment for your majesty by yourself. Your majesty... Your majesty said that there is no inner coat, and the shroud...well, that's enough."

After saying this, the little eunuch immediately said: "Bah, bah, bah, this thing is too unlucky, the slave has no intention of talking, and I hope His Majesty will lighten the blame."

An Ruhui fell back, not in the mood to bother with him about these details, and felt angry and funny at Ye Lizhi's answer.

Isn't it because the queen mother forcibly gave him a person who looks very similar to her, why is she so arrogant?
Sigh...Although she intends to break the ice and rebuild the old relationship with her, if she doesn't cooperate, there's nothing she can do about it.

Just as Wu Zi was sullen, a woman's exclamation suddenly came from outside!

An Ru stood up abruptly, and asked the little eunuch who had retreated behind the screen, "What's wrong?"

The little eunuch hurriedly trotted out, hurriedly saluted and responded: "Slave, I'll go and have a look now, Your Majesty, please be safe and don't be impatient."

After the words fell, the person has rushed out of several heavy doors neatly.

An Ruhui didn't feel sleepy for a while, so he also got up and went to the ground, grabbed a coat at random, put it on, and hurried out following his footsteps.

Under the cover of night, the palace lanterns in the endless corridor swayed with the wind.

In a shadowy area at the corner, two figures, one tall and one short, were clearly visible standing, as well as the cold dagger resting on the neck of the short figure.

The hostage-taker yelled harshly at the guards who surrounded him:

"Dare to take a step closer, be careful of your empress' heads!"

Mother, empress?
what's the situation?
The guards around looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't quite understand who the assassin was holding.

Because the empress dowager loved her waist and her soft waist, she was not lowered to become a maid of honor, but let her live in the palace as a guest and a hidden future concubine of the emperor.

Therefore, she didn't wear the service of a court lady. At first glance, she was almost the same as an ordinary concubine. Even because of the empress dowager's love, the specifications of the clothes and jewelry could catch up with the rank of a noble concubine.

It's no wonder that Master Assassin was dazzled for a moment and recognized the wrong person.

An Ruhui was protected behind the encirclement of the guards, looked at the assassin hiding in the corner from a distance, and immediately understood who he was holding as a hostage——

The waist is also soft.

Was it someone sent by An Rujin?Or the filial king of Changping?
An Ruhui fell into contemplation for a moment, and the woman who had nothing to do with him being held hostage by the assassin was not included in his consideration of the rescue plan at all.

However, Yao Yirou's next move really surprised him.

Just listen to Yao Yirou's voice pretending to be calm:

"Retire for me, didn't you hear what he said! And you...no matter who you are or what your purpose is, you can tell me as much as you want, and I will... try my best to satisfy your wishes."

Her greedy life and fear of death are obviously very much like a pampered woman's behavior when facing a crisis.

The assassin laughed a few times, and scoffed:
"I was still the master, thinking about how difficult the woman I wanted to get rid of would be, but it turned out to be just a scumbag who was afraid of death. It just so happened that keeping you is just a waste of food. Why don't I do justice for the sky today—"

"Wait!"

If it is said that she didn't care about Yao Yirou's life and death at the beginning, then at the critical juncture, instead of denying that she is not the real Ye Lizhi, she used her identity to draw the assassin's hatred to herself This move made An Ruhui's heart soften, and he couldn't bear to watch her innocently die in vain.

The assassin's hand, which was about to hit her neck hard, paused. During this pause, An Ruhui had already snatched the sword from the guard beside him, and threw it in his direction without hesitation. go--

The sharp sword roared with the sound of breaking wind, the assassin took a step back in shock, he had to let go of his waist, raised his hand and used the dagger to block, and before the guards could react, he jumped up and walked along Roof escaped.

"Chase!"

The guards immediately organized into several small teams and jumped onto the roof one after another to chase after the assassin.

Yao Yirou, who escaped the catastrophe without any danger, gave a limp in his hind legs and fell to the ground.

The little eunuch next to An Ruhui trotted over and helped her up.

 Dear friends, happy new year!
