Chapter 576: protect the concubine
Chapter 576 Protecting the Concubine
Xie Jingchen faintly felt that this post house was bought by Concubine Yue, who wanted to team up to frame her little Zhi Zhi, and was about to rush in when he saw Sixth Uncle Xie rushing over with his people.
"Your Highness, you cannot go in."
Uncle Sixth Xie walked up to him with strides, and whispered softly: "If Princess Pingning is really inside, wouldn't it be harming her if you entered so recklessly."
Looking around, he didn't see Lin Jinxiao's figure. He had no other way to persuade Xie Jingchen, but tried to stabilize him, and made plans after Lin Jinxiao arrived.
Xie Jingchen looked hesitantly into the post house. It was quiet all around, and the atmosphere was very strange and deep. Seeing the malicious expression on Yi Cheng's face, he felt more and more uneasy.
"Today I will go in no matter what, so please don't persuade Sixth Uncle."
Xie Jingchen's mood is already in a state of confusion, and he can't listen to any advice at all. Now he just wants to see Xiao Zhizhi in safety.
At this moment, Han Yicheng finally understood that the reason why the princess wanted to perfunctory Prince Xie herself was because he probably wanted him to lose his sense of propriety and rush into the post house first.
"Prince Xie, please think again, Princess Pingning is indeed not in the post house."
Han Yicheng replied with firm eyes.
"Don't try to hide it from me. If Princess Pingning makes any mistakes, I'll see how you explain to King Pingning."
Xie Jingchen glared at him angrily, almost drawing his sword to face him.
"Where did Prince Xie start his words? How could there be any mistakes in the princess who is so well-behaved."
Han Yicheng had a bitter look on his face. It is so hard to believe the truth these days, and he tried again: "The princess is indeed not in the post house."
Xie Jingchen was so angry that he directly pulled out a sword from the guard beside Uncle Xie, and pointed it at him: "If you don't let me in, I will kill you immediately."
"Your Highness."
Uncle Sixth Xie was so frightened that his brows trembled, he squeezed his cold sweat and said to himself: "The emperor's nephew is probably crazy, he dared to kill the postman of the Dahe Empire because of that woman."
Quickly snatched the saber from his hand, and said earnestly: "Your Highness, don't forget your mission this time."
There was a stalemate in front of the door, and the sound of mighty footsteps suddenly sounded from all around, one after another.
Several people heard the reputation and looked over, and saw that it was Lin Jinxiao leading a large number of soldiers.
Han Yicheng hurried up to greet him, looked at Xie Jingchen who was not far away with a dull expression, and said with lingering fear: "Your Highness, you can be regarded as coming, this Prince Xie insisted that the princess was in the post house and wanted to trespass Posthouse."
"Oh?"
Lin Jinxiao glanced at him sharply: "Prince Xie misses my concubine so much. She has been staying at the mansion for the past few days and hasn't gone out. Even this king doesn't know that she has come to the post house. How can Prince Xie decide?" Is she in the post house?"
"I"
Xie Jingchen was at a loss for words, and glared at Uncle Xie beside him angrily, guessing that he must have sent someone to tell Lin Jinxiao about the posthouse.
But Xiao Zhizhi sent someone to send a letter to herself, and she would definitely not miss the appointment. She must be in the post house at the moment.
Otherwise, the cronies would not be sent to the restaurant to spread the word.
Uncle Sixth Xie completely messed up his plan and hastily lured Lin Jinxiao over. If Concubine Yue and Nandu Wang were to do something like that and hurt Xiao Zhizhi, he would live in guilt for the rest of his life.
But at this time, it is not easy to ask Sixth Uncle any more. Xie Jingchen looked at Lin Jinxiao with a solemn expression, and asked in a deep voice, "I don't know what the King Pingning is talking about?"
"A few days ago, three assassins ran away from the city. I waited for a few days to arrest them secretly, and learned that the three assassins had escaped into the Rongning Garden. His Highness was worried about endangering the safety of Concubine Yue Gui, so he personally led us to arrest the assassins. "
He Ying stepped forward arrogantly and clapped his hands to report.
Lin Jinxiao just smiled at Xie Jingchen without saying a word.
This made Xie Jingchen very worried.
His own concubine is currently in the inn, he doesn't care about his wife's safety, but hypocritically cares about Concubine Yue, and thinking about the upcoming entry of Princess Na Yuanxi, Xie Jingchen's heart is full of contempt: He really is a heartless person.
He is not allowed to make further arguments, Lin Jinxiao has raised the Tianzi sword, and waved decisively at the soldiers behind him: "Surround Rongning Garden immediately and capture the assassin."
All of a sudden, there was a rush of people rushing into the post house.
Xie Jingchen took a secret look at Han Yicheng, seeing his calm and composed demeanor, he couldn't tell who was inside, Nandu Wang or Xiao Zhizhi.
It was even more unclear about Lin Jinxiao's intention here.
But no matter whether it is to catch an assassin or an adulterer, if Xiao Zhizhi is already hiding in the post house, her safety will undoubtedly be endangered. Without thinking, she led her guards into the post house.
Lin Jinxiao's purpose for this trip was clear. As soon as he entered the Rongning Garden, he quietly ordered people to control the guards in the garden, and ordered He Ying to lead people to surround the whole garden.
This sudden change made it impossible for the maids guarding outside the hall to respond. They were helpless and were about to report to the hall when He Ying threw a sword and inserted it into the door.
The maids were so frightened that they ran away, not daring to approach the gate of the main hall.
Seeing the silence inside, He Ying made a quick decision, sent someone to guard the door, and said loudly to Lin Jinxiao: "Your Highness, I'm afraid the assassin has already sneaked into the inner courtyard, which may endanger the imperial concubine."
"Is the imperial concubine safe?"
Lin Jinxiao pretended to shout into the hall: "Several fierce assassins entered the posthouse today and broke into the Rongning Garden. This king personally brought people to guard the noble concubine Zhouquan."
At this time, Concubine Yue Guifei and the King of Nandu were having a good time, and she was startled when she heard the movement outside, and broke out in a cold sweat.
Concubine Yue's eyes widened in surprise, she lay on Lin Tingkai, and muttered in a low voice: "When did the assassin come in the garden, how dare this shabby household suddenly break into the garden without my palace's permission?"
Lin Tingkai was so anxious that he quickly lifted her off his body, got up hastily, and urged while putting on his clothes: "You have to find a way to hold him for a while, so that I can escape, otherwise you and I will die. "
"This"
In desperation, Concubine Yue Gui was also in chaos, faltering and hawing, not knowing what to do.
Seeing that there was no movement in the room, Lin Jinxiao raised his voice and shouted into the hall: "Bump the door, we must protect the noble concubine, and don't let the assassin hurt the noble concubine."
Xie Jingchen was also in a panic. After searching in the garden for a long time, he still couldn't see Xiao Zhizhi, and he didn't know what her current situation was. Don't be kidnapped by an assassin or killed by Concubine Yue Gui.
Regardless of Xie Liushu's obstruction, he rushed forward with He Ying and smashed open the gate together.
When the door of the palace opened wide, two figures in disheveled clothes came into view.
Concubine Yue Gui hadn't figured out how to answer her words, but this guy just barged in, which was really infuriating.
She stopped in front of Lin Tingkai in a panic, trying to block the figure of Nandu Wang, and cursed aggressively: "You group of people who don't know the heights of heaven and earth, dare to trespass on the other courtyard of this palace, what crime should you deserve?"
"Ah, Uncle Three Emperors, you are here too."
Lin Jinxiao dismissed Concubine Yue's questioning, and directly pointed the finger at the people behind her, and said in astonishment: "What are you doing, lonely men and widows living alone in this other courtyard in broad daylight, isn't it against the rules?"
This scene was really unsightly, He Ying, Han Yicheng and all the guards turned their backs directly with embarrassment on their faces.
