Chapter 805
After a little hesitation, the man held his breath, dragged Yun Lan who was on the ground and hid behind the bed curtain, "If you dare to talk nonsense, her life will be lost."

Qingchen got off the bed in a hurry, picked up the cloak on the hanger in a panic, wiped the blood on the floor and the edge of the bed, and said, "Do you think I'm also the kind of person who doesn't care about the lives of those around me?"

He hid the blood-stained cloak in the quilt, opened the north window to ventilate, and then sprinkled a bottle of toilet water on the ground. In order to cover up the bloody smell in the room, Qingchen lit a thick jasmine fragrance.

After finishing all this quickly, she casually put on a shirt outside, took a deep breath, and opened the door with her shoes.

Seeing that it took her so long to come out, Jinxiu asked, "Your Majesty, you..."

Qingchen motioned her to keep silent, yawned and asked the leading guard, "Why are you making such a noise? Did you let me sleep in the middle of the night?"

But at this time Jinxiu glanced warily into the hall, and was about to go in to see what happened, but was blocked by Qingchen forcefully.Jinxiu understood what she meant, so she stepped back silently.

The leader of the guards stepped forward and clasped his fists and said: "Shen Chang sees the concubine Chen, an assassin entered the empress dowager's palace tonight, which disturbed the empress dowager, but fortunately the guards stationed outside found it in time, and did not hurt the empress dowager. Someone saw the assassin go to the empress dowager I came from the direction of my bedroom, and my subordinates were afraid that the culprits would harbor evil intentions, so I specially brought people to search, and I also asked the empress to make it easier for me."

Qingchen made a frightened look on purpose, and blamed: "Master Shen, why are you on duty? The Holy Majesty entrusted the life of the royal family to you. How could you neglect your duties and let assassins infiltrate the palace? Fortunately, the queen mother is safe. Fortunately, otherwise the emperor will not spare you. Why don't you hurry up and take people to search around, if you let that thief hide here and hurt the people in this palace, wouldn't this palace be wronged?"

Hearing what she said, Shen Chang replied with a face of shame: "Your Majesty taught me that this subordinate will lead people to search everywhere." Then he turned around and told everyone: "Everyone spread out and searched. Do not let go of any place, search carefully!"

The two teams of guards brought by Shen Chang were immediately divided into several teams automatically, and they searched the front hall, the back yard, the grass in the kitchen, and even the houses where the palace people lived.

Shen Chang took a step forward, and asked for instructions with some embarrassment: "I also ask your empress to forgive me, and my subordinates have to enter the palace of the empress to have a look, otherwise, if the emperor asks, it will be difficult for my subordinates to explain."

Qingchen grasped her sleeves nervously. She had this habit. Whenever she was nervous, she would habitually clenched the inner sleeves tightly. It seemed that only in this way could she suppress the uneasiness in her heart.

But with a calm smile on his face, he asked: "It's not suitable for the general to enter the bedroom of the palace, right?"

Shen Chang was selfless in his heart, and replied calmly: "It's about the safety of the empress, and my subordinates have to go in and check it out. If there is any offence, please ask the empress to forgive me. If the subordinates don't go in and take a look, in case you can't find it People, when the emperor asks, it is difficult for subordinates to explain, and it is easy to misunderstand the lady."

Qingchen thinks what he said is right, if no one can be found, and she is the only place in the palace that has not been searched, wouldn't it make people think about it?

After hesitating for a while, Qingchen turned around and walked into the hall, "Then you can come in with me."

She went into the inner room, stood in front of the north window with her back to Shen Chang, pretended to have just opened the window, and said to Jinxiu reproachfully: "The incense in the room is too strong, and it gave me a headache. Don't put too much incense in the incense burner."

Without seeing Yun Lan, Jinxiu looked around vigilantly. Hearing what she said, she already sensed that something was wrong, but she still followed her words and replied: "Yes, this servant knows."

She seldom burns incense in this room, and she obviously doesn't light anything before going to bed. Now the room is full of strong fragrance, isn't it trying to cover up something?

Seeing Shen Chang heading towards the closet, Jinxiu didn't stare at him, but shifted her gaze to Qingchen's face, seeing that although she was still calm, she still noticed the flash of worry in her eyes up.

With a whoosh, Shen Chang suddenly opened the concealed wardrobe, seeing that there was no one in it, he closed it again with a little disappointment.

Qingchen stood under the north window, waiting for Shen Chang to look around the room, even under the bed, then clasped his fists and said: "This subordinate has offended you, and disturbed your mother's sleep, please invite your mother to sleep." Forgive me, this subordinate will leave."

"Master Shen, please walk slowly."

Qingchen's palms were already covered with cold sweat, just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Shen Chang go a few steps away, then suddenly drew his sword and turned around, stabbing straight behind the bed curtain.

Qingchen gasped, and couldn't help exclaiming, but saw that Shen Chang opened the bed curtain, but found nothing.

Only then did he feel relieved and said: "Your Majesty has offended me, and my subordinates dare not disturb your Majesty's rest, so I will leave."

Qingchen frowned and said: "Master Shen, did you search carefully? You have even searched the inner room of this Palace, if you let this Palace hear even a little bit of rumors that are not good for this Palace, then this Palace will definitely not just let it go! "

Shen Chang bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this subordinate will explain clearly to the Emperor."

Before Shen Chang left, the palace gate was still closed, and Xiao Jue hurried over with Xiao Luzi, Qingchen heard him coming, and hurried out to meet him.

"Why is Your Highness here? But have you heard about the assassin?"

Xiao Jue looked at her a few times, and when she saw that she was well, she said: "Isn't it? I also went to the palace to search for the guards. You don't have many people serving here, and people are easy to hide in the water and on the shore. I'm afraid that if someone I have evil intentions to take you as a hostage, and if I am worried, I will rush over to have a look, but fortunately, I am relieved that you are fine."

Before Qingchen could speak, he heard a voice say coldly: "You really have a heart, and you came here faster than me."

The two were startled, they saw the emperor walking in with Fuquan, Xiao Jun had a faint smile on his face, his expression was not as cold as his voice.

Qing Chen and Xiao Jue hurriedly knelt down to salute, the emperor ignored Xiao Jue, just walked up to Qing Chen, bent down to help her up, pulled off the cloak on her body to wrap her up, and blamed: "It's cold in the night, how come You don’t know how to add a piece of clothing, and the people who serve you are becoming more and more careless, can’t you think of such a thing?”

Qingchen glanced at Xiao Jue, who was still kneeling on one knee, and hurriedly said: "Just now Commander Shen suddenly brought someone to search the palace, and the concubine was awakened from sleep, and came out in a hurry, only wearing a coat, and invited the emperor Don't blame the concubine's disrespect in front of the imperial court. The maids have never seen such a big battle, and it's possible that they didn't take good care of them when they were frightened for a while. The concubines haven't recovered yet, let alone them?"

Xiao Jun nodded, turned her face slightly and said: "You should go back first, as long as Concubine Chen is here, I will take care of her."

 Since yesterday, the normal update has been resumed, at least [-] words per day, okay~
