Chapter 330 Changes in the Xiao Mansion

Chapter 330 Changes in the Xiao Mansion
The emperor's neck was tightly strangled by Zhao Yan, and he was almost out of breath. He couldn't utter a word after hearing his roar, but the disgust in his eyes was obvious.

Zhao Yan knew that he was doomed today, but when he saw the emperor's reaction again, the hatred in his eyes grew stronger, he winked at Ling An, and immediately dragged the emperor out.

"Chase! We must rescue the emperor!"

On the other side, inside Xiao Mansion, Xiao Ruan stared at the hourglass in the corner and remained silent.

The candle on the table suddenly made a "cracking" sound, and the light in the entire room was suddenly dimmed.Xiao Ruan was startled, and unconsciously turned her head to look behind her, but it was Li Yun who was cutting off the candle wick with scissors.

"Did brother come back?"

"Return to Madam, Mr. Xiao has not come back yet."

Hearing Li Yun's voice, Xiao Ruan didn't realize it but frowned, and there was a bit of worry on his anxious face.

Others might not know it, but she knew very well in her heart that Zhao Yan led troops to force the palace tonight, it was destined to be an extraordinary night.

She had already guessed that Huo Xun would betray Zhao Yan tonight, but she always had a bad feeling in her heart that something would happen.

"How's the situation outside? Have you heard of any turmoil?"

Xiao Ruan thought about it many times in his mind, but he couldn't figure out what would happen, so he had to ask people to pay close attention to the movement in Beijing.

"It's pretty quiet outside, and nothing unusual happened,"

Li Yun still shook his head.

Xiao Ruan couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief when he heard the words, but at this moment, Zhu Yun suddenly ran in from the outside in a hurry.

"Miss is not well, someone outside our house suddenly came and knocked on the door, what should we do now?"

Zhuyun followed the housekeeper of Xiao Mansion, Xiao Ruan frowned when he saw the battle, "Do you know who they are?"

"Ma'am, how can we know this? Before the master left, I asked this slave to follow your arrangements. Let the young lady make up her mind now!"

The housekeeper looked at Xiao Ruan nervously, waiting for her to speak, but Xiao Ruan didn't know anything about the situation outside, he just frowned and said: "You immediately lead all the servants in the mansion to guard the door, and you must not let them in !"

Hearing this, the butler responded and immediately went down to arrange for someone to stop the person outside smashing the door.

Zhuyun breathed a sigh of relief for a while, but she was still a little panicked in her heart. She looked at Xiao Ruan suspiciously and said, "Miss, what happened tonight? Why did you suddenly come to smash our door?"

Xiao Ruan glanced at her lightly, saw that her face was full of confusion, paused and said suddenly: "Your feeling is right, something big will happen in the capital tonight, we just need to wait gone."

"Wait?"

Zhuyun became more and more confused, but seeing Li Yun's serious expression, Xiao Ruan had no intention of explaining anymore, so she lowered her eyes and quietly exited to "wait".

However, when she walked to the door of the room, a black shadow suddenly flashed in the corner of her eyes. Before she could realize what happened, it was as if someone covered her mouth and her throat was tied. No sound.

Zhuyun's face turned pale with fright, and she struggled to make a sound, attracting the attention of Xiao Ruan and Li Yun in the room.However, the two people inside still turned their backs to him, without any reaction.

Zhuyun struggled in the arms of the man in black for a moment, and was about to open his mouth to bite the back of the other's arm, but was hit by a hand knife, and immediately collapsed on the ground.

"who!"

Hearing something faintly, Li Yun suddenly turned his head and yelled at the door, Xiao Ruan turned his head and looked around vigilantly.

"Xiao Ruan, you really didn't disappoint me, I knew you must still be waiting for news from Huo Xun and the others!"

A familiar voice came in from outside the door, Xiao Ruan was startled, and then saw Huo Yuan's figure appearing in front of her eyes.

Huo Yuan was wearing a suit of armor. Judging from his attire, he seemed to have just experienced a fierce battle.

There was a faint smell of blood from the tip of his nose, Xiao Ruan stared at Huo Yuan's metal mask, and his heart sank.

"what do you want to do?"

Xiao Ruan tried her best to keep herself calm, but she knew very well in her heart that the bad premonition that has been lingering today was actually for this.

Huo Yuan found himself covered in blood, which is enough to show that the plan of Huo Xun and the prince has been successful, and it is impossible to say that Zhao Yan has been arrested by the emperor.

And Huo Yuan came here clearly to revenge her.

Sure enough, when Huo Yuan heard his question, an angry light flashed in his eyes: "How dare you ask me why I came to see you? Xiao Ruan, you ruined my Korean government's family, don't you? What do you want to say to me?"

Xiao Ruan narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately said: "Master Huo, where did you start talking? Didn't the two of us reach a settlement in front of King Huai that day? You came here like this today, could it be Lian Huai?" Will the king's face be brushed off?"

"Duke Huai? Don't pretend to be foolish in front of me! If you hadn't deliberately fooled Duke Huai, how could I have been disfigured by you!"

Huo Yuan could touch his mask by himself, the hatred in his eyes almost swallowed Xiao Ruan.

Back then, he had good intentions for Xiao Ruan and helped him everywhere, but who would have thought that this woman would go against the big house because of Huo Xun.Not only did he confront Huo Yixuan many times, but he also tricked her into going to Beijiang.

Afterwards, she even cruelly included the entire South Korean government, which had to completely destroy the little pity he had for Xiao Ruan.

He persuaded Duke Huai not to trust Xiao Ruan many times, but he was not accepted. After finally waiting until now, how could he easily let go of this excellent opportunity for revenge!

After finishing speaking, Huo Yuan didn't say any more, he stepped forward to take Xiao Ruan away.

"Ma'am, leave quickly!"

Seeing Huo Yuan approaching them, Li Yun confessed to Xiao Ruan, then drew out the saber from his waist and entangled with Huo Yuan.

Xiao Ruan only said that Huo Xun arranged many hidden guards around her, and immediately ran out of the room, hoping to get their rescue, but just as she got out of the room, she felt a pain in the back of her neck, and immediately lost consciousness...

"Father, what do you think? Do you feel better?"

In the palace, the emperor was lying weakly on the bed, his face was pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his brows were tightly wrinkled, as if he was still suffering from pain.

Hearing the prince's voice, the emperor forced himself up and sat up, and said with a gloomy expression: "I'm fine, where are Zhao Yan and the queen now? I want to see them!"

Hearing this, the prince unconsciously turned his gaze to Huo Xun, and Huo Xun immediately knelt on the ground, and said with guilt on his face: "Back to the emperor, I'm not doing my job well. I only caught up with the empress, and didn't know the whereabouts of His Royal Highness Huai. .”

When he and Huo Xun rushed to the emperor's palace, they saw that Zhao Yan was holding a dagger in his hand and was about to kill the emperor. He was worried that Zhao Yan would be harmful to the emperor. The emperor escaped from the palace.

Although the emperor was rescued afterwards, Zhao Yan had already been sent away by his cronies.

And the queen deliberately exposed her whereabouts to cover Zhao Yan, and they found her.

As Huo Xun's voice fell, the room immediately entered into a silence, the emperor lowered his eyes slightly, his face was gloomy, no one could see what he was thinking.

Seeing this, the prince and Huo Xun secretly exchanged looks, and immediately bowed to the emperor: "I have been hiding something from my father, and I ask my father to forgive me."

The prince's voice was full of guilt, he hadn't received the emperor's response for a long time, slowly raised his eyes, and immediately met the emperor's scrutiny.

"After all, what did you and Huo Xun do that have been kept hidden from me? What did Zhao Yan say about you planning him to rebel?"

The emperor looked back and forth between the two of them many times, and finally heaved a long sigh.

What happened today was so sudden, he was really disappointed with Zhao Yan, but it was obviously strange that the prince and Huo Xun appeared together.

The feeling of not being able to control the overall situation caused the emperor to be frustrated for a while, secretly wondering whether he was really old as Zhao Yan said.

"Father, it all starts with the empress and Duke Huai planning to frame Master Huo."

The prince hesitated for a moment, gave Huo Xun a blocking look, and rushed to the front to explain what happened during this period to the emperor.

"General Huo was unbearably persecuted by King Huai, and he found signs of his intention to rebel, so he found son Chen. Because neither son Chen nor General Huo has clear evidence, it is not easy to report this matter to you. My son made the decision to ask General Huo to pretend to join King Huai, and then wait for the opportunity."

The emperor took a breath, went through the prince's words in his mind, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at Huo Xun: "Huo Xun, is what the prince said true?"

"Back to the emperor, it is indeed as the prince said. King Huai has been wooing the ministers before but was rejected by the ministers. They would not think that they would design that the father of the ministers had an affair with the queen. And the minister just discovered that the king of Huai had already wooed most of the people in the court. The official, aware of the importance of this matter, told the prince all about it."

Huo Xun lowered his head, letting the emperor's eyes look at him, and after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly heard the emperor sigh and raised his head unconsciously.

"It's all my negligence!"

The emperor recalled the words of the two of them to Huo Xun's abnormal reactions in the court hall, and immediately understood that the two of them were not fooling themselves with lies.

As for Zhao Yan, he has always had the desire to compete with the prince for the throne, and it will only be a matter of time before he rebels.

Thinking of the situation where Zhao Yan held the knife around his neck just now, the emperor felt a chill in his heart.

Although he appointed the crown prince early in the morning, he was not indifferent to Duke Huai.And when he made a move to himself for the throne, he didn't hesitate at all, and he no longer had any family affection.

Squinting his eyes, the emperor finally said in a deep voice: "Immediately throw the queen into limbo, no matter what, Zhao Yan must find it for me!"
