Close the window?!

Wei Qing's face suddenly turned even uglier.

Xiao Qingqian was not an ordinary person, he must have already sensed something.

"About that …" Wei Qing continued to mutter.

The maliciousness in Xiao Qingqian's eyes grew stronger, and his gaze was like a sharp ice blade, causing Wei Qing to be so nervous that she couldn't breathe.

"This King will wait outside. Hurry up!"

Looking at his ashen face, she felt as if all her strength had been drained.

After a while, just as she was about to untie her belt, the door slammed open again.

Wei Qing looked at him with a pale face.

"Don't forget to close the window!"

"Oh." Wei Qing mumbled in agreement and quickly closed the window.

After calming herself down, she began to change her clothes.

"Boom …"

An object fell onto the ground. Stunned, she bent down to pick it up.

It was a pouch embroidered with patterns that she could not understand, much like the ones on the handle of a dagger.

She sniffed it and was immediately surprised.

Lavender!

Chu Yin gave it to her?

When did this happen?

Afraid that Xiao Qingqian would suddenly come in again, Wei Qing quickly hid her bag and changed into her palace attire before slowly walking out.

Xiao Qingqian sized her up, and held her hand without saying a word.

Wei Qing was not used to his touch. She twisted and turned with all her might, but was unable to break free.

And this action of hers, could only anger Xiao Qingqian.

Xiao Qingqian squinted, his gaze was shockingly cold.

Wei Qing nervously lowered her head, just as the wind blew, a strong fragrance of lavender seeped into her lungs.

Xiao Qingqian frowned, the dark color in his eyes becoming more and more prominent.

Wei Qing couldn't help but think, could he have smelled the unusual scent of lavender?

"About that …"

Before she could even finish her words, Xiao Qingqian's ears twitched and immediately pulled her into his embrace.

Several men dressed as eunuchs suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, each one of them with a solemn expression.

The light from the saber reflected off the light from the candle flame, making it somewhat dazzling.

Wei Qing nervously gulped and glanced at Xiao Qingqian.

"You don't know that this is the Imperial Palace?" Xiao Qingqian questioned in a cold voice.

"It's precisely because it's the palace that we have to make a move here!" The leader's voice was cold, and his eyes overflowed with killing intent.

Wei Qing frowned, her hand under her sleeve clenching into a fist.

"I'm afraid these people are trying to disrupt the relations between the Southern and Northern Kingdoms!"

This coincided with Xiao Qingqian looking at her with a few more looks of approval.

At the moment, the situation was extremely dangerous, so Wei Qing did not investigate the expression in his eyes, but instead, was very worried for Chu Yin.

Although they knew that he was fast and nimble, with profound martial arts skills, these assassins appearing in the palace should be aimed at Chu Yin!

While his mind was in a mess, the person in the lead had already made his move.

Wei Qing didn't know martial arts, so it was difficult for her to protect her from harm while fighting against these people at the same time.

If these people were to make a move here, it would be hard to guarantee that no one would make a move at the banquet.

Yet, even such a loud sound of fighting did not attract the imperial guards. This was truly strange.

"Shut the hell up for This King!" Xiao Qingqian sent a person flying with a kick, and the person fell on the fake boulder. With a "kacha" sound, his ribs cracked and he was in so much pain that he was unable to move.

Wei Qing pursed her lips, and reminded her, "Something must have happened at the banquet. "Ah …"

Before he could even finish, Xiao Qingqian had lifted him up with one arm.

She was stunned, looking at Xiao Qingqian who had a solemn expression, she suddenly felt that he was not that hateful to the bones.

"Watch your back!" She suddenly saw the dark sword behind him thrusting towards him, reminding him.

Xiao Qingqian frowned. As he carried her up, he placed her on top of a crabapple tree.

He jumped down again, and with two palm strikes, he knocked down another two assassins.

Seeing that, Wei Qing's blood started to boil. Just as she was about to cheer for him, she suddenly saw that something happened at the banquet as well.

The entire palace was filled with the thick smell of blood. As Wei Qing looked at this group of people who were vicious to the extreme, she secretly felt that if these people did not achieve their goal, they would not rest.

However, she had changed into palace attire today, and did not bring along the poison powder that Chen Yang had researched.

Otherwise, he would definitely be able to help.

"Damn you!" Wei Qing bellowed.

Xiao Qingqian turned his head to look, only to see Wei Qing holding onto the tree trunk, kicking one person away.

Although it would always be troublesome every time he was with this woman, it was still a life and death experience.

Wei Qing clenched her teeth, "Let me tell you, I, your father, am a kung fu martial artist!"

Xiao Qingqian took one of their blades.

After temporarily taking care of all these people, Xiao Qingqian stood up on his tiptoes and flew down.

Wei Qing realized that he was injured on his arm and that the space between his eyebrows had tightened. "Take me to Royal Hospital."

Xiao Qingqian thought that Wei Qing was nervous about him, and a warm feeling filled his heart.

"I'm fine!"

Wei Qing knew that he had misunderstood that she was going to help him bandage his wounds, and speechlessly curled her lips. "You're really narcissistic."

"Hmm?" Xiao Qingqian frowned.

"Those people at the banquet are not people that you can subdue with just your brute strength alone!"

"You have a plan?"

After capturing the confidence in Wei Qing's eyes, Xiao Qingqian didn't wait for her to reply as he carried her and flew towards Royal Hospital.

There were many prescriptions containing medicinal herbs that had different effects when mixed together. She remembered that one of them could be used as a medicinal ingredient for the Cartilage Powder.

"Quite a few people in the banquet hall have been confused by this. I'm guessing that there's a drug in the wine!" Wei Qing said quickly.

Hearing that, the look in Xiao Qingqian's eyes became even deeper.

These people really put in a lot of effort. Just who would they belong to?

With a few promotions, he arrived at Royal Hospital.

Wei Qing quickly looked around and quickly found a few medicinal ingredients that she needed.

Seeing that she was about to go and fix the medicine, Xiao Qingqian shook his head helplessly, "Let me!"

Wei Qing looked at the wound which was continuously bleeding as he tried to concoct the medicine, and said, "It's better if I help you bandage it!"

Xiao Qingqian looked at her with a hint of interest in his eyes.

"We're comrades-in-arms right now, so don't worry about us!"

Xiao Qingqian did not say anything, but his heart felt a little sour. After a simple bandage, the two of them took the prepared medicine back to the banquet hall.

Old Emperor and the rest were already tied up on chairs, Wei Qing's eyes quickly looked around, but did not see Chu Yin, and his heart skipped a beat.

But seeing her expression suddenly change, a hint of suspicion appeared in Xiao Qingqian's eyes.

"Are you ready?" Wei Qing asked, knowing that she couldn't afford to be distracted at all.

Xiao Qingqian covered his nose and mouth with the handkerchief and nodded to her.

When Xiao Qingqian shockingly appeared, the assassins were all shocked and shouted, "Prince Chu is here!"
