Chapter 311



“Who are you?” Jin Ling asked with a frown.

“It’s none of your business. Just tell me which mansion you’re from. How can you run around in the imperial palace?! You’re so unruly,” the eunuch raised his neck and snorted coldly.

“I-I am from the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang!” Jin Ling’s gaze passed through the eunuch and landed on Wei Yuewu, who was peeking out of the rockery. Seeing Wei Yuewu nod at her and point at the lake beside the rockery, Jin Ling immediately understood her.

Marquis Hua Yang? The eunuch was taken aback upon the mention of the name. Everyone in the imperial palace knew that the Emperor deeply trusted Marquis Hua Yang. If she was his maid, it would become a handful.

“Sir, is there anything I can help you with? Did you see my young lady?” Jin Ling looked around, her face a little agitated. She walked past the eunuch and went toward the rockery as if she was looking for someone.

“Your young lady? Who is she? I did see a young lady walk by just now, but I don’t know if she’s the one you’re looking for.” The eunuch’s eyes flickered, and he followed her.

All he had to do now was to find out whether they were really from the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang and report to his master. As for how his master would deal with them, it was none of his business.

“She is…” Jin Ling said as she walked. Suddenly, she seemed to sense that something was wrong. She covered her face anxiously and turned to look at the eunuch with vigilance in her eyes. “Why do you want to know?”

The eunuch was delighted when Jin Ling was about to spill the beans, but suddenly, Jin Ling stopped talking. He anxiously caught up with her and explained, “Nothing. I just told you that I saw a young lady just now, but I don’t know if she’s the one you’re looking for. If you don’t tell me who your young lady is, I won’t tell you where the young lady went either!”

At this time, the two of them were already close to the rockery.

Jin Ling quietly went around the rockery and happened to go around the cave where Wei Yuewu was hiding. Because the eunuch wanted to coerce some information out of her, he followed her all the way to the shore of the lake.

“Look, isn’t that my young lady?” Jin Ling suddenly pointed to the opposite side of the lake.

The eunuch, who was talking to Jin Ling, subconsciously turned to the opposite side of the lake when he heard her scream.

At this moment, Wei Yuewu rushed out of the cave and slammed into him.

Consequently, the eunuch shrieked in shock before falling into the lake and struggling desperately.

“Quick!” Wei Yuewu pursed her thin lips and looked around. She picked up a broom that someone had placed behind the rockery and pressed the eunuch down, who wanted to jump up from the water.

“Let me do it!” Jin Ling took the broom from her hand and pressed it on the eunuch’s head. Although the eunuch was strong, he was much weaker than Jin Ling, who was excellent in martial arts.

In just a few moments, she managed to press him into the lake. After struggling a few times in the lake, he stopped and slowly sank down.

“Miss, let’s go!” Jin Ling threw down the broom in her hand and pulled Wei Yuewu’s hand to leave.

A figure of a bodyguard had appeared at the entrance of the courtyard. Because there was a noise here, he looked around and seemed to want to come over.

“Miss, I’ll leave first. Please hide and leave later!” Sensing the urgency, Jin Ling made a prompt decision and pushed Wei Yuewu behind the rockery.

“Be careful!” Wei Yuewu knew that she could not run with Jin Ling at this time or they would both get caught. She pinched Jin Ling’s hand and reminded in a low voice, a fierce look appearing in her eyes.

Never did she expect that Wei Fengyao would know about this kind of secret matter in the imperial palace. A woman could meet with a prince privately, and judging from the situation, she speculated that the woman was not an ordinary palace maid.

If the woman just now was not a palace maid, she could only be His Majesty’s concubine. Hence, no one could know about their rendezvous.

The only outcome of witnessing them was death!

Jin Ling nodded and rushed to the other side of the rockery. As the bodyguard saw a figure of a woman flash in front of him and rush out from the rockery, he immediately chased after her.

At this moment, he did not want to attract anyone’s attention.

As the sound of the bodyguard faded away, Wei Yuewu regained her composure and rushed out from the other side of the rockery. She knew that she could not hesitate at all at this moment. There were probably more than two people that the so-called His Highness had brought with him. Moreover, the woman was a problem too.

If she was a master in the imperial palace, she should have a maid to serve her. Why was she alone?

This was a troublesome place, and she must leave quickly.

Sure enough, before she could run far, she heard rapid footsteps coming from behind her. She turned around in panic and saw two more eunuchs chasing after her.

They were only a few meters away from her, but there was no place for her to hide. She looked at the lake in front of her and bit her lips.

Although she grew up in the backyard of her maternal grandparents’ family, she knew how to swim when she was young. However, in this kind of weather, even if she was an expert in swimming, she might freeze to death if she went into the water.

However, there was no other way. If she did not jump in, her only outcome after being caught by the two eunuchs would be death. The man with a somewhat feminine look had killed the palace maid without any hesitation before. It could be seen that he was a ruthless person.

“Ah!” A tragic cry echoed from behind Wei Yuewu, startling her. She hurriedly looked back and saw that the two eunuchs lay in a pool of blood on the floor. A bodyguard was standing behind them, and he looked quite familiar.

However, before Wei Yuewu could see the bodyguard clearly, he quickly disappeared behind a tree.

A hand silently reached out from behind her, pulled off the handkerchief covering her face, and abruptly covered her mouth. Wei Yuewu was so shocked that she almost screamed. But in the next moment, she saw a slender finger gently flicking her nose twice like a tease. Then, she suddenly relaxed and caught a glimpse of the collar of the snow-colored fur coat.

Yan Huaijing! He was Yan Huaijing!

Her entire body went limp and trembled slightly due to anxiety and fear.

Yan Huaijing draped his fur coat around Wei Yuewu’s body, carried her up, and hopped onto a big tree on the side. Coincidentally, half of the branches of the big tree extended outside, while the other half was in a courtyard on the other side.

Then, he released the hand that was covering Wei Yuewu’s mouth, tapped his foot on the branch outside, and jumped inside.

“You…” Wei Yuewu, who was pulled around, looked at Yan Huaijing’s handsome face and stammered.

Holding Wei Yuewu’s slender waist with one hand, Yan Huaijing stretched out a slender finger and gently pressed the corner of Wei Yuewu’s lips. The corners of his lips curved slightly into a smile, and his black eyes were full of extraordinary splendor.

Wei Yuewu calmed herself down and shut her mouth. Sure enough, she heard hurried footsteps coming from outside. A group of bodyguards and eunuchs suddenly rushed over. The identity of the so-called His Highness was practically on the verge of being revealed.

“Are they dead?” someone asked in a low voice.

“There are still people here. What should we do?” Someone else asked. Of course, it was impossible for the two eunuchs to die silently on the road. Moreover, they were cut in the throat by a sword. The two bodyguards who came from behind exchanged shocked glances.

“Go and report to His Highness at once!” A man who looked like a leader of the bodyguards looked at the dead eunuch and instructed.

“Alright!” A Bodyguard hurriedly ran into the previous palace.

In the main hall, the feminine man was looking at the two handkerchiefs in his hands. Both of them were made of very fine material, and it was easy to tell that they were made by young ladies of aristocratic families. One handkerchief was embroidered with the word “Wu” and the other was embroidered with the word “Fu”. Except for the two words, there were no other marks.

Obviously, these were the names of the young ladies who dropped the handkerchiefs. However, were there two women who were eavesdropping in the hall just now?

Although he hadn’t detected it before, he had been thinking about it ever since he found the palace maid. He was sure that there was only one person eavesdropping in the hall at most. If so, why were there two handkerchiefs? It was really confusing.

“Your Highness, two eunuchs were killed on the road outside. We didn’t see anyone there!” A bodyguard hurriedly came in to report.

“Not even a single person?” The man frowned and put the two handkerchiefs into his pocket.

“No, only two dead eunuchs!” The bodyguard shook his head.

“Has she left?” The man’s expression became colder and colder. His face, which had not been exposed to the sun for a long time, was a little pale after his illness.

“She has already left. No one saw her!” The bodyguard hurriedly reported, knowing that he was referring to the alluring woman.

“Alright, I’ll go back first. Just ignore everything that happened here today!” The man growled coldly.

“What about those two eunuchs?” The bodyguard did not know what he meant. He pointed outside where the two eunuchs had died. Moreover, they were killed by sharp weapons. How could the news be covered up?

“Since we can’t hide them, we don’t have to. Wasn’t there an assassination going on in the Crown Prince Mansion earlier?!” The man crowed with a sinister smile.

Although these two eunuchs were his people, they usually did not serve in his palace. Even if they died, no one would be able to link him to them, let alone know that he had been here.

“Yes, Your Highness!” The bodyguard immediately nodded knowingly and headed out. He waved to the bodyguard who was guarding outside, and the bodyguard swiftly retreated.

When the footsteps outside faded away, Wei Yuewu finally relaxed. At that moment, she really thought that she could not escape.

Ever since she entered the imperial palace, Wei Fengyao repeatedly gave her big gifts. First, it was the new room, and then this killing move.

If she only suspected the room, she would definitely not suspect that Wei Fengyao had arranged a powerful killer here. Wei Fengyao wanted to murder her with a borrowed knife.

Wei Yuewu was even certain that her handkerchief had already fallen into the hands of the so-called His Highness.

However, she dropped Wei Qiufu’s handkerchief there on purpose to disrupt that prince’s thoughts.

“Let’s go!” Looking at Wei Yuewu, who was lying softly in his arms, and the slight sweat on her forehead, Yan Huaijing squinted. His eyes inexplicable darkened when he recalled the moment that she and Jin Ling made a prompt decision to knock the eunuch into the lake just now.

If it were not for the fact that he had someone keep an eye on her, she would have been in grave danger this time. A sense of annoyance and killing intent that didn’t match his gentlemanly temperament couldn’t help but appear in his calm heart…

Since there were dead people here, they could not stay here for long. Looking around cautiously, Yan Huaijing held Wei Yuewu and rushed out like an arrow. He hopped from roof to roof and eventually, he landed on a pavilion far away.

At the same time, a sharp voice came from the distance. “There are assassins! Catch the assassins!”
