405. Chapter 405 Assassins
Ye Yaoyao went out of the palace and returned to her residence. She sent Chunmei, who had been flattering her, out, and looked outside the door anxiously, wondering if that person would come to her today. She accidentally reminded the emperor yesterday that she did not Will the matter of memory make that person unhappy? Although the rumors outside have not stopped, she feels... hope is very slim.
She waited until late at night, but she still didn't see that person's figure. Maybe he was disappointed in her and would not come to her again.
"Girl, aren't you resting yet?" Chunmei saw that the light in the room was still on, so she walked in lightly, saw Ye Yaoyao sitting on the bed in a daze, went over and asked her in a low voice.
Ye Yaoyao came back to her senses, and smiled faintly at Chunmei, "Well, it's time to sleep, you should go down too."
Chunmei made the bed for her, and said with a smile, "Girl, don't worry, now that the emperor knows that your horoscope is also excellent, he will definitely cherish you even more."
"En." Ye Yaoyao was tired of hearing such words again, these were untrue, she knew very well that the emperor completely ignored her attitude.
"Girl, then you should rest earlier, the slaves have left." Chunmei sensed that Ye Yaoyao was in a bad mood, so she didn't say any more flattering words.
Ye Yaoyao lay down in a messy mood, she was still thinking about what would happen next, did that man give up and not try to get her into the palace again? If Yaoyao knew that she was going to rob the emperor, would she hate her to death?
But... Yaoyao doesn't like the emperor at all, why should she compete with her for the emperor?
Ye Yaoyao couldn't fall asleep, she was still thinking about how the emperor ignored her in the Palace of Compassion and Ning yesterday, which made her feel throbbing in her heart.
"Do you want to kill Lu Yaoyao? Do you want to replace her as the emperor's sweetheart?" In the darkness, a cold voice came into Ye Yaoyao's ear.
Ye Yaoyao sat up immediately in shock, this voice was not the person who came to find her that day, it was another one! "Who are you? Come out?"
"You don't care who I am, you almost have no chance, the emperor has confirmed in court today that he wants to remove Lu Yaoyao from the position of princess, in a few days, the emperor will give her a marriage, you are still waiting What?"
Ye Yaoyao stared at every corner of the room with round eyes. The voice sounded like a woman's voice, as if... as if she had heard it somewhere.
"Who are you guys? Why do you help me like this?" Ye Yaoyao asked in horror.
"You don't need to know, you only need to know one thing." The woman said with a sneer.
"What's the matter?" Ye Yaoyao's voice trembled. When she heard that the emperor was about to make Lu Yaoyao the empress, she had the urge to hide her face and cry bitterly. other people's chess pieces.
Now even if she doesn't want to be their flag, they won't let her go, not to mention... they also know that she is not the emperor's savior.
She didn't want to live the old days again, and didn't want to have the last bit of relationship with the emperor...
"You have to remember that Lu Yaoyao will not allow you to enter the palace. Now it is rumored that your horoscope is the same as hers, the fate of the mother of a country. She will definitely not let you go. She is the one who asked me to come tonight Kill you." The woman's voice said coldly.
Ye Yaoyao was stunned for a moment, but she still didn't understand what she meant, the woman came to the side of the bed at some point, the sharp sword in her hand flashed sharply in the darkness, and pierced Ye Yaoyao's shoulder with one strike.
"You..." Ye Yaoyao's eyes widened, the severe pain made her forget to scream, she wanted to see what that woman looked like, but she only saw her blurred outline and back.
It wasn't until the woman left that Ye Yaoyao screamed.
Chunmei, who was sleeping next door, hurried over with her clothes on, and when she saw Ye Yaoyao covered in blood, she yelled in fright, "Girl, what's wrong with you?"
"There...there are assassins!" Ye Yaoyao shouted.
Everyone in the yard was alarmed, and within half an hour, Tang Zhen came.
He frowned and looked at the blood on the bed. Ye Yaoyao's wound had already been bandaged, but she bled too much, her face looked terribly pale, and she was on the verge of falling, as if she was about to faint.
"Miss Ye, can you see clearly who hurt you?" Tang Zhen asked Ye Yaoyao quietly.
Ye Yaoyao's face was snow-white, she leaned against Chunmei's arms and shook her head tremblingly, "I didn't see it, it's just...but that person looks like a woman."
"What did she tell you?" Tang Zhen asked.
Ye Yaoyao pursed her lips, and after a while she whispered, "She just said... don't fight with Princess Yaoyao anymore..."
"Ridiculous!" Tang Zhen shouted angrily, "What does this have to do with Yaoyao?"
"I... I don't know, but that's what that person said. She originally wanted to kill me. I was lucky enough to escape." Ye Yaoyao said with her head down, not daring to let Tang Zhen see his guilt .
Tang Zhen glanced at her sharply, "Miss Ye, rest well first, this matter will come to light sooner or later."
"Master Tang, can you catch that person? Maybe...she just wants to frame Princess Yaoyao." Ye Yaoyao whispered.
"Miss Ye, don't worry, she will be caught naturally." Tang Zhen glanced at her with a half-smile.
Ye Yaoyao looked at Tang Zhen suspiciously.
Shen Yi walked in from the outside, and bowed to Tang Zhen, "Master Tang, the woman who came here yesterday was seriously injured by the hidden guard and escaped from the city."
"Didn't catch her?" Tang Zhenjun frowned.
"That woman's martial arts are so strong that she is no match for ordinary people." Shen Yi said in a low voice.
Tang Zhen looked at Ye Yaoyao, "Since he was seriously injured, he must not be able to go far. Has someone chased him?"
Shen Yi said, "I have already sent people to chase after him."
"Then let's not disturb Miss Ye's rest, let's go back first." Tang Zhen said lightly.
Ye Yaoyao's heart was pounding, she was very afraid that the woman would be caught, and finally told the truth.
"Master Tang, do you want to tell the Queen Mother and the Emperor about this matter?" Ye Yaoyao asked in a low voice, she was worried that Tang Zhen would deliberately conceal this matter for Lu Yaoyao.
Tang Zhen glanced at her indifferently, "Miss Ye, don't worry, the emperor will know about this."
Ye Yaoyao paused in her heart, "I...I don't want to compete with the princess."
"Miss Ye, you are overthinking." Tang Zhen smiled, even if he wanted to fight, he had to be qualified.
"Yes." Ye Yaoyao didn't know if she heard the meaning of Tang Zhen's words, her face was a little stiff.
What would the emperor think if he heard about this matter? Will he believe it?
