"Master will go to Pingqing Palace to serve His Majesty soon. We must not let this slip!"

Zhuosen bowed slightly:

"As ordered!"

……

Qingwang Mansion, backyard east kitchen

"Grandma, don't put chopped green onions"

Ying Xian came close to Madam Liu and whispered

Madam Liu has always liked this pretty girl, and a smile broke out on her face:

"Yingxian, why haven't you eaten yet so late today?"

Ying Xian sighed:

"Alas... Your Highness has been like a madman for a few days, and has lost his appetite..."

"I have been serving you these past few days and cannot leave you alone, so naturally I have no time to eat."

Madam Liu skillfully sprinkled a handful of floating flour on the noodles she had just rolled, shook them a few times, and then put them into the boiling pot.

She said in a very sympathetic tone:

"We have worked so hard, Mammy has rolled out two liters of noodles for you, and we will add an egg later, so you can't go hungry!"

Ying Xian's almond eyes lit up and she said delicately:

"Thank you, Mammy!"

Just as Ying Xian picked up the steaming noodles, Ye Dingzhi had already rushed all the way from the General's Mansion to the outskirts of the Palace.

It was already past the hour of Xu, and the night guards were about to change shifts in less than an hour.

Ye Dingzhi leisurely walked around the perimeter of the Qingwang Mansion. Because of his ordinary appearance and the fact that it was late at night, he did not attract any attention.

After figuring out the positions where people were guarding, Ye Dingzhi already had a plan in mind...

The palace covers an area of ​​more than 100 mu, with more than 100 houses of various sizes. If you are not an insider of the palace, it would be difficult to find the location of the Green King.

Fortunately, during the first exam of the academy, the Qing King tempted Ye Ding and brought him into the mansion, which allowed Ye Dingzhi to remember the way to the mansion.

Under the cover of night, Ye Dingzhi quietly made his way to a wall in the back garden shaded by golden pine and green cypress.

He first climbed up the wall with half of his head exposed, checked the situation inside, and when he saw that no one was around, he turned over and jumped into the back garden.

After landing, he quietly retreated into the pine and cypress trees. Ye Dingzhi looked out from the shadows of the trees.

I found two palace guards holding lanterns patrolling about 70 to 80 feet away, walking towards this side...

"Yao San'er, did you hear what the housekeeper said yesterday?" The tall and thin man on the left suddenly said

"What?" The companion who was asked turned around and said

"There's a young girl in the West Courtyard teahouse. She's only fifteen and looks like a fairy!" The man had a lewd smile on his face.

"Hey! Zhao Erkui, you already have a wife, but you're still thinking about this. How shameless!" Yao San scolded

The guy called Zhao Erkui felt guilty:

"Third brother, third brother, don't say that... If you don't allow thieves to steal, you can't allow thieves to think about it, right?"

Yao San pushed Zhao Erkui:

"Be careful that Aunt Hu, the waitress, finds out. If she tells the housekeeper, you'll be punished!"

Zhao Erkui said angrily:

"Oh, Third Brother, you are too old-fashioned. It's not a big deal for us to gossip..."

Yao San rolled his eyes at him and walked forward.

After taking three or four steps, he suddenly stopped. Zhao Erkui didn't understand what was going on.

"What's wrong, Third Brother? Did you see a ghost?"

Yao San slapped his thigh fiercely:

"Oh, my head is in turmoil... Miss Xian'er just came out from the main hall of the inner hall and asked me to go to the tailor to get some winter quilts to send to the inner hall..."

"Just check the back garden by yourself first. I'll go get the winter blanket... Your Majesty will feel cold soon!"

As he spoke, Yao San ran to the front yard holding the shaky lantern.

Zhao Erkui responded:

"Third brother, slow down!"

Then he hummed a little tune and walked towards the pine and cypress where Ye Dingzhi was.

There is a pavilion in front of the pine and cypress trees. There is a lamp stand at each corner of the pavilion. I don’t know why there is no candlelight today.

It might be that there was no one around on a snowy night, so the servants in the mansion were not busy, which gave Zhao Erkui a job.

He walked straight towards the pavilion, and saw that he was only ten feet away from Ye Dingzhi...

Zhao Erkui gently took out a half-burnt candle from the lantern and just as he carefully lit the first lamp, he felt a numbness on the back of his neck and fell to the ground like mud.

Behind him was Ye Dingzhi with a cold gaze...

……

Ying Xian quickly finished a large bowl of egg noodles. She took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth:

"Thank you for your hard work so late at night, I will go back to the inner hall first, you should also go to bed early!"

Aunt Liu smiled and said:

"Miss Xian'er, you are so polite. If you are hungry, just let me know. We will prepare whatever you want to eat!"

Ying Xian thanked him again and left the East Kitchen.

The east kitchen was not far from the inner hall where Qing Wang Xiao Xie was, but Ying Xian walked in a hurry.

She always felt a little uneasy. She didn't know why, but her heartbeat seemed to be much faster than usual.

Just after passing through the corridor, the back door of the inner hall was right in front of him. Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in front of Ying Xian's eyes and blocked his way!

"Qiang!"

Ying Xian was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He subconsciously drew his sword and aimed it directly at the chest of the black shadow!

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

"Who are you!"

Ying Xian gave a delicate sound

"clang!"

The long sword in Ying Xian's hand was knocked back by the black shadow. She didn't see the man's movements clearly, but saw a burst of sparks in the night. She guessed that the man had a weapon in his hand!

"It's so dark, why doesn't Miss Yingxian carry a lantern?"

The person who was speaking used his internal energy with one hand, and the purple light released by the internal energy in his hand made Ying Xian see clearly that it was the great eunuch Zhuo Sen.

"Zhuo...Zhuo Sen, the great eunuch! I was disrespectful just now, please punish me!"

Ying Xian put away his sword, bowed, and said with a slightly guilty tone.

Zhuo Sen smiled lightly:

"It's okay, you're not slow to react. I'm here to protect King Qing on the orders of Grand Supervisor Zhuoqing. I had no choice but to rush in because of the emergency!"

"When you meet the Green King later, remember to tell him for me, so that he won't accuse me of being impolite!"

Ying Xian was shocked when he heard this:

"Could it be that Grand Eunuch Zhuoqing knew that someone was going to do something bad to His Royal Highness Prince Qing tonight?"

Zhuo Sen nodded:

"Enough of the idle chatter, take me to where His Highness is! The assassin may have already come in..."

Ying Xian said nothing more, and walked quickly with Zhuo Sen towards the back door of the inner hall.

……

Ye Dingzhi was holding a lantern in his hand at this time, and the dim candlelight cast a shadowy shadow on his face.

He was wearing the grey cloth gown that Zhao Erkui, a doorman in the mansion, had worn. It looked a little bloated when he put it on top of his own clothes.

After a few breaths, Ye Dingzhi had found the main entrance to the inner hall where the Green King was.

Because Yingxian was protecting King Qing personally, there were no guards at the main entrance to the inner hall.

Ye Dingzhi looked around privately and saw that there was no one around, so he leaned his head against the door and listened to the noise inside.

There was only the sound of a man's steady breathing, as if he was fast asleep.

Ye Dingzhi followed the sound of breathing and found the window where he was. He poked a hole with his finger and took a closer look. Qing Wang was sleeping soundly on the bed wrapped in a quilt...

The true energy around Ye Dingzhi condensed instantly. He blew out the lantern and threw it under the window, then opened the front door and ran straight to the sleeping Qing Wang Xiao Xie!

"You bastard, you have destroyed my family. Today is the day you will pay with blood!"

Ye Dingzhi gritted his teeth and approached Qing Wang step by step. His right arm was already filled with internal strength. He only needed one punch to smash Qing Wang's dog head through!

……

Chapter 110 Zhuosen comes to the rescue and fights Ye Dingzhi alone!

"Thief, take your life!"

Ye Dingzhi's entire arm was wrapped in a divine arm armor formed by the condensation of true energy, which was exactly the Acalanatha skill!

His right fist contained the sound of wind and thunder. This fist was filled with ten years of hatred. With a low roar, his right fist went straight to the face of the sleeping Qing Wang...

The sleeping Qing Wang was suddenly awakened by the roar. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Ye Dingzhi, who was a few steps away, punching him with a powerful fist!

"Ah! Ying Xian...Ye, Ye Dingzhi...is here, save me!"
