Chapter 48 She Is His
"Ah..." The palace maid cried out in pain, and the dagger and teacup in her hand were thrown aside at the same time.

Clang... The sound of the teacup shattering and the maid's cry of pain attracted everyone's attention.

Qian Diewu was sitting quietly, paying attention to her appearance all the time so as not to lose the face of Mo Castle, when she saw Jimo Wuxuan's hand stretched out from her eyes suddenly, she was very surprised, she didn't know how to respond thing, before she could react, she heard the maid's cry of pain and the sound of teacups and blades falling to the ground. Now she understood everything, and stared blankly at Jimo Wuxuan without blinking her eyes. Jumping wildly.

He saved her.

Jimo Wuxuan pinched the maid's wrist fiercely, and asked her angrily, "Who sent you here?"

"Go and ask Lord Yan." The maid attacked Jimo Wuxuan with her other hand, even though she knew she was hitting a stone with an egg.

"Looking for death." Jimo Wuxuan withdrew his hand and hit the palace maid with one hand, subdued her with just one move, grabbed her neck, twisted it hard, directly broke her neck, and threw her body to the dining table superior.

Clang... There was another chaotic sound of cracking porcelain tiles, which frightened the people present so that they didn't even dare to breathe too hard. They looked at Jimo Wuxuan tremblingly, because they were afraid of Jimo Wuxuan's cruelty.

Qian Diewu was also frightened, holding her breath in her heart, unable to catch her breath, she stared at the dead maid on the table with her eyes wide open, recalling the scene of Jimo Wuxuan breaking the maid's neck in her mind, although she felt that he It was extremely cruel, but she knew it was a reasonable thing, so she stood up and asked with concern, "Are you hurt?"

No one spoke in the scene, it was very quiet, although Qian Diewu's voice was small, but everyone in the audience could hear it clearly, some people even answered her secretly: In this world, there is no one who can blatantly hurt Jimo Wuxuan. How could a person be injured before he was born?

Jimo Wuxuan didn't care about the other people present, he was surprised by Qiandiewu's immediate concern, looked at her with trembling eyes, smiled slightly, and replied softly, "It's all right."

After answering, he asked her coldly, "What about you?"

She shook her head with a soft smile, and replied softly, "I'm fine."

"Then, let's go."

Qian Diewu thought that Jimo Wuxuan would interrogate the assassination of the court lady on the spot, but he said 'Let's go', implying that he was going to leave, which made her puzzled, so she asked, "Are we going to leave like this? Find out the truth before leaving?"

"Wuming will deal with it, let's go." Jimo Wuxuan gave the same answer, and waved his hand slightly.

Seeing the gesture, Tian Gang immediately stepped up and pushed the wheelchair away.

Qian Diewu stood still in the same place in a daze, looked at Jimo Wuxuan's back, and then at the dead maid on the table, wondering if she should stay or go?
Jimo Wuxuan noticed that Qian Diewu hadn't followed, and ordered coldly, "What are you still doing in a daze? Let's go."

"Hey... oh." Qian Diewu gave a stiff voice, and then started to walk forward, before leaving, she glanced at the maid on the table, wondering why this maid wanted to kill her?
If it wasn't for Jimo Wuxuan who rescued her just now, she would have been killed by this court lady. She came to this world and has always been very responsible. Except for scolding Xia Houhuang last time, she didn't provoke other people. Could it be that Was it the assassin arranged by Xia Houhuang?

But this is just her personal conjecture, without evidence, even if it is really the assassin arranged by Xia Houhuang, she has nothing to do with it.

As soon as Jimo Wuxuan and Qiandiewu left, the atmosphere on the scene eased a bit, but it was still tense, because Jimo Wuming was still there.

The second lord of Mo Castle is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

From the time of the assassination to the departure of Jimo Wuxuan, Jimo Wuming never spoke or took any action, but no one knew about it. He had been secretly observing the reactions of everyone at the scene, especially Xia Houhuang.

When the court lady failed in the assassination and was killed, Xia Houhuang had an angry look on his face, as if he was angry because the matter failed, as if this matter had something to do with Xia Houhuang.

The emperor, like everyone else, did not speak until Jimo Wuxuan left, and then he showed his imperial prestige and severely reprimanded the matter, "Where is the imperial guard in the palace, and the assassins are allowed to act recklessly in the palace?"

The commander of the Imperial Guard next to him heard the reprimand, and immediately knelt down to plead guilty, "The emperor forgives the crime, it is the humble minister who has failed."

"Hmph, you are indeed negligent." The emperor reprimanded the commander of the imperial guards, and secretly cast a hint at the queen.

Seeing the hinting look in the eyes, the empress immediately came forward and pushed the responsibility for this matter away, "Second castle master, I think this palace lady looks very ugly, I'm afraid it's not a palace lady from the palace, but someone from outside. He came in, looking for an opportunity to assassinate the eldest lady. It is our responsibility to let the assassin infiltrate the palace, and please give us a few days from the second castle master, and we will definitely give the second castle master a satisfactory explanation."

Jimo Wuming smiled disdainfully, and retorted sarcastically, "I gave you a few days to investigate and the result is to find some dead ghosts to deal with us, right?"

"The second castle master was joking, we will definitely do our best to find out the matter and give an explanation to Mo Castle. This person can sneak into the palace to assassinate, presumably there is a lot of power behind him, the second castle master should remind the eldest castle master when he goes back, Pay more attention to the safety of the eldest lady."

"Thank you Empress for your concern. The matter of Mo Castle will not bother the old empress. You should think about what kind of explanation you should give us. Here, I would like to remind the empress that you can find some people to settle this matter for the dead ghost." It will only make things worse, so please think twice before you deal with this matter, empress." Jimo Wuming made the warning words very obvious, and everyone knew it.

Xia Houhuang was very angry, slapped the table and shouted, "Jimo Wuming, don't go too far, the empress is the mother of the country, why are you so disrespectful?"

The emperor was very dissatisfied with Xia Houhuang's actions, and immediately reprimanded him angrily, "Lao Qi, it's none of your business here, just shut up."

"Father, people have already bullied us, why do you still..." Xia Houhuang refused to accept it, and insisted on speaking clearly in front of all civil and military officials, but before he finished speaking, the punishment came first up.

"Come here, take the Seventh Prince down and beat me hard for twenty."

"Father..."

The queen was worried that Xia Houhuang would be punished more, so she interrupted him, "Enough, you have nothing to do here, go down and be punished."

"Mother, why do you..."

"Come here, take the Seventh Prince down, and then lock him in the room. Without permission, he is not allowed to step out of the room." The queen also ordered Xia Houhuang to be punished.

At this time, two guards came up and hesitated again and again before they dared to escort Xia Houhuang away.

Xia Houhuang was very unwilling, and before leaving the stage, he would give Jimo Wuming a few more vicious glances, the dissatisfaction and unwillingness were all over his body.

Jimo Wuming sneered, ignored Xia Houhuang's anger, straightened his hair gracefully with his hands, stood up, and said coldly: "It's inconvenient for me to stay here when something like this happens, I hope the queen can Remember what you said just now, and what you promised me, and you must investigate this matter thoroughly."

"Second castle master, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter and give Mo Castle a satisfactory explanation." The emperor personally came forward and agreed to this matter.

The queen looked anxiously at the emperor, full of worry in her heart.According to her guess, the assassination incident was probably related to several princes. If it is really found out, wouldn't the prince have to be taken to Mo Castle for disposal?What if it was her two sons?

"You are not joking, with the emperor's words, I am relieved, then I will wait for the good news and leave." Jimo Wuming left as soon as he said, without the emperor's consent at all.

Princess Lianxiang was very reluctant, and wanted to follow up and chat with Jimo Wuming, but under the current situation, it was difficult for her to leave, so she could only watch her sweetheart leave.

She has lived in the deep palace for a long time and cannot leave the palace casually, and she does not see Jimo Wuming several times a year, it seems that she has to find a way to get close to Jimo Wuming, otherwise he will be snatched away sooner or later.

After all the people in Mo Castle had left, the atmosphere at the scene became less tense. The ministers who were afraid to speak just now began to whisper, and everyone was guessing who was involved in the assassination, but there was no one. Dare to say it clearly, lest disaster come out of your mouth.

The emperor was very angry, slapped the table angrily, and roared: "I also want to know, who is so courageous to do evil at my birthday banquet? I will definitely investigate this matter to the bottom. Prince, this matter I will leave the matter to you, and within five days, I will have the result."

"Father, five days, I'm afraid..." Xia Houran was in a dilemma. At this moment, his heart was in a mess, and he didn't know how to deal with it next.

All his plans were disrupted by the assassinated maid.

"If you can't find out this matter in five days, then you, the prince, will be released." No matter how embarrassed Xia Houran was, the emperor directly threatened him with the prince's position, and got up and left after speaking, ignoring the presence of the prince. of ministers.

He only knew that Mo Castle would keep giving him enough silver taels, and he didn't pay attention to the rest.

Xia Houran was forced to take over this task, feeling angry, annoyed and helpless at this moment.

Seeing that the emperor was so angry, the queen couldn't say more words to shirk responsibility. If she said too much, she might be suspected, so she persuaded Xia Houran, "However, since your father ordered it, then you should 'do your best' Go get this done."

Xia Houran understood the meaning of the queen's words, nodded and agreed, "Yes, queen mother."

Same as when they came, Qiandiewu and Jimo Wuxuan were in the same carriage, but the atmosphere was quite different from when they came.

Qian Diewu sat a little behind, staring at Jimo Wuxuan's back, replaying the scene of him saving her just now in her mind, knowing that he is a cold and cruel person, but she didn't I feel how terrible he is, and the fear of him before is decreasing bit by bit.

In order to thank him for saving his life, she decided to thank him personally, so she broke the silence in the carriage and said softly, "Well, thank you just now, thank you for saving me."
