Chapter 1024: A Tragic Assassination

Yu Zhong Qing this while wasn’t too good, somewhat in a daze, his body seemingly a bit rigid. He couldn’t sense any pain from the wound on his back, just feeling numb, but the area below, he nevertheless felt a slight chill, also a bit sticky. It can be seen, he was still bleeding.

“If you don’t want to die, then quickly go look for an imperial physician to examine.” Li Hong Yuan indifferently opened his mouth.

The others finally realized that Yu Zhong Qing was injured, each and every one all becoming fretful. Thus, they all went to look after Yu Zhong Qing. Those assassin on the ground all got tossed aside. It was obvious, although they appeared to have returned to normal, on the inside, they were actually still a bit lacking. That’s why, they would appear somewhat distracted.

Li Hong Yuan coldly watched from the side. That’s why, in his view, these imperial guards although appear to be pretty good, but in the imperial palace, it was for the most part still considered peaceful. These people were still lacking in many areas, their inner qualities not up to standard.

Yu Zhong Qing naturally also understood. However, right now, he was somewhat lacking the desired strength, “No need to bother with me, go have a look.”

“Enough, leave behind two people, this prince will assist in handling. It’s best for you to look after your own little life.”

“Many thanks wangye.” Yu Zhong Qing also knew, right now wasn’t the time to be brave. If he were to thoroughly collapse this time, he probably will die with grievances. He still hasn’t taken his revenge yet.

Li Hong Yuan also didn’t bother with those two imperial guards that were somewhat at a loss for what to do, just letting his own bodyguards confirm the assassins situation.

Guard Qian crouched down, inspecting one by one, “Master, all dead.”

“These two committed suicide by taking poison?” Li Hong Yuan’s gaze landed on that ‘dancer’ and ‘little eunuch’.

“Yes, but it wasn’t by having the poison sack carried in the mouth, but rather taking the poison in advance.”

Li Hong Yuan pulled Jing Wan to leave, “Take care of it cleanly.”

Reaching the place where the banquet was arranged, the entire place already became a complete mess. There was also the weeping and bawling sounds like as if the sky had collapsed, because several of the young princes as well as imperial grandsons had died. The injured were further innumerable, and the people lying on the ground were far more than expected. Although from their attire, one was unable to tell which were assassins and which were victims, but one for the most part can still distinguish from those hands. Moreover, these people for the most part all have a blade by their hand.

Li Hong Yuan roughly swept a glance. The amount of assassins were more than expected. Adding all of them together, it already exceeded two digits, and judging by the situation of the four assassins they encountered, there shouldn’t be any left alive.

However, even so, it was still more than enough to show that there was a hole in the imperial palace’s defense.

Regardless of whether the main responsibility this time was on Yu Zhong Qing or not, even if he doesn’t die this time, he’ll still have to shed a layer of skin after this.

Just, where did the person that was suppose to ‘bravely’ take charge of the situation at this time go?

TN: All

The scent of blood was a bit heavy, and also those children’s death. Jing Wan clearly was severely affected, using the handkerchief to cover her mouth, feeling nauseous. After all, pregnant people were exceptionally sensitive towards smell. Furthermore, there was also the psychological shock.

There was already someone at the scene voluntarily taking on the follow-up arrangement. Even if there isn’t, Li Hong Yuan this while will still only look after his own wife. Thus, he unhesitantly left with Jing Wan. However, he didn’t leave the palace, instead taking Jing Wan to Shu Consort Qin’s Ganlu Palace. This choice seemingly appeared to not have any problems either.

Originally thinking that with such an incident occurring, everyone would be anxious, so the majority’s first reaction would be to stay together in one place, and not be alone in separate places. That’s why, Shu Consort Qin probably wasn’t in Ganlu Palace. However, the reality was somewhat unexpected.

Shu Consort Qin still appeared pretty good, probably not having gotten frightened that badly. After learning Jing Wan’s situation, she immediately ordered someone to bring over some pickled plums for her. Pickled plums, this kind of thing, did Ganlu Palace just happened to have? Clearly, it was specially prepared for Jing Wan’s sake. Even though she doesn’t know when Jing Wan will enter the palace, and even if entering the palace, she may not necessarily come to Ganlu Palace, but this was Shu Consort Qin and the Imperial Noble Consort’s kindly feelings.

Based on Shu Consort Qin and the Imperial Noble Consort’s special relationship, perhaps Shu Consort Qin had Li Hong Yuan viewed as her son. If really considered like this, then it also didn’t have any problems.

Under normal circumstances, Jin Qinwang was always taciturn. That’s why, this while, don’t count on him saying anything.

He just quietly held Jing Wan, lightly stroking her back again and again.

Seeing that Shu Consort Qin was the same as usual, Jing Wan also didn’t push Li Hong Yuan away. Once she pressed down the nauseous feeling, and avoided recalling those provoking images as much as possible, she began inquiring about the assassination. Today’s matter was truly too serious. This assassination attempt clearly had gone through meticulous and careful arrangement. There was a plan, and also a clear target. Their means were also vicious, taking the poison beforehand. When time comes, regardless whether or not they’ve completed the mission, and regardless of whether or not they can escape unscathed, they will all inevitably die.

Without any left alive, many things won’t have a direction to investigate in.

That means any situation can arise.

Realizing the severity of the situation, the scene that previously shocked Jing Wan also got tossed aside.

“Things happened very suddenly. The little eunuchs serving the dishes, the dancers, the musicians, the assassins seemingly appeared from all sides. Their main target seemingly appeared to be his Majesty, but the princes and imperial grandsons were also their target. By the time the imperial guards came, the scene was already a mess, the tragedy already brought about.” Shu Consort Qin’s complexion was somewhat pale, appearing to have lingering fears. Under carefully examination, her clothes were also somewhat dirty, having yet to change, or perhaps not having the strength to change. That’s why, the matter’s influence towards Shu Consort Qin was much more serious than it appeared.

Jing Wan also didn’t rush her, waiting for Shu Consort Qin to collect herself.

“Noble Consort Su blocked a fatal blow for his Majesty. If not careful, afraid it will be life threatening. Before the situation was contained, his Majesty just hurriedly carried Su-shi to Yucui Palace.”

The information here was really big. Jing Wan and Li Hong Yuan mutually glanced at one another, seemingly already smelling certain scents.

“Afterwards, it was Gong Qinwang that stood out first to stabilize the situation. Next was Kang Qinwang, and shortly after, the other wangyes also competed to show off.” Shu Consort Qin has always been a gentle and tranquil person, yet at this time, she still revealed a slightly mocking expression.

She had seen clearly. Those people, when the assassins charged towards them, not just once did they grab the person by their side to block. Rolling and crawling on the ground, where did they still have their usual bearing in the slightest? One has to know, all the princes all had a martial arts teacher, and when sparring at the training grounds, it was all having the look, yet when it came time, not a single one stood out to protect their wife and children.

Shu Consort Qin restrained the expression on her face, “The imperial consorts all got forcibly requested by them to return to their respective palaces. ————You two need to be careful. At the time, his Majesty’s descendants and the imperial consorts, of the ones that should be present, only you two just happened to be absent. Those people no matter what will all have this matter pushed onto you two. That’s why, you must think of a way to deal with.”

Whether it’s just taking their anger out on them, or trying to frame them, what Shu Consort Qin said was inevitable.

“If it really was plotted by this prince, then how could they still be alive.” Li Hong Yuan quite conceitedly said.

Shu Consort Qin believed his words, but the problem was that towards the outside, they can’t say this. Saying it would just be equal to completely exposing oneself.

Jing Wan slapped him, “Be serious.”

Li Hong Yuan glanced at Jing Wan, then looked towards Shu Consort Qin, “I have an understanding inside.”

Upon hearing this, this ‘mother and daughter-in-law pair’ both relaxed a breath, choosing to completely trust him.

Shortly after, just after a few sips of tea, the chief eunuch by Le Cheng Emperor’s side hurriedly rushed over, “This servant greets your Highness Shu Consort, wangye and wangfei.” Under this kind of situation, coming to look for Jin Qinwang was absolutely a painful task.

“You’re excused. Coming to Ganlu Palace at this time, is something wrong? How is her Highness the Noble Consort?” Shu Consort Qin asked.

“Replying to your Highness, her Highness the Noble Consort’s life is hanging on the edge. His Majesty ordered this servant to come see wangye.” The chief eunuch carefully peeked at Li Hong Yuan, “His Majesty asks wangye to have Jin Qinwang Manor’s manor doctor immediately called into the palace.”

Looking at Li Hong Yuan, he didn’t have the slightest reaction, seemingly as if ‘Jin Qinwang’ wasn’t him.

Jing Wan glanced at him. It’s enough to just randomly put on an act, to even put on airs when involved, is it not tiring?

“Understood. Guard Qian is just outside, let him take the trip. Eunuch should return to imperial father’s side to serve. If by chance there’s the need, can also help out.” Jing Wan directly made the decision.

“Yes.” The chief eunuch poured with tears inside. Jin Wangfei sure enough was a great person.

Once the person was gone, Shu Consort Qin jokingly said, “Among the high ranking women in the imperial harem, right now, only Xian Consort Wei hasn’t been treated by your manor’s doctor. It’s also good that the person is raised in Jin Qinwang Manor. If switched with somewhere else, certainly would’ve long gotten thrown into the Imperial Physicians Court by his Majesty.”

“Xian Consort Wei may not necessarily have any serious problems. Even if there is, she probably won’t have the fate to be seen.” Jing Wan carried a smile, but her words were exceptionally cold and cruel.

This caused Li Hong Yuan to be somewhat astonished. Shu Consort Qin also blanked, but shortly after, regardless of why she would say this, she all didn’t feel there was anything inappropriate.

“I predict that it probably won’t just be seeing your manor’s manor doctor. Soon after, Rui Qinwang’s whole family will probably enter the palace too. Perhaps, Su-shi will even want to see you two.” Shu Consort Qin quietly said.

It was obvious, such a good opportunity, if Noble Consort Su doesn’t grasp, then she would’ve lived for nothing. Her grave would’ve long grown grass, her bones already turning into dust.

“So what if they climb up again? Since able to kick down once, twice, then just able to kick down a third and fourth time.” Towards this matter, Li Hong Yuan really didn’t care that much. What he cared about was that based on the people of Rui Qinwang faction, they really weren’t capable of plotting tonight’s matter.

That’s why, the mastermind behind this good play tonight, who could it be?

T/N: Ironically the young princesses that fought and got sent back by Li Hong Yun actually got saved by this.
