Chapter 909 Something is going to happen in the palace
"Ah~~! Brother Xiaokang, I'm here to save you."
In her dream, Jing Chunxi dodged the person lunging at her, raised her knife, and shouted. The blade flashed a cold light in her dream, and she could almost feel the vibration of the blade tearing through the air and the touch of the enemy's warm blood splashing on her face.
"Princess, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me." Xiaoyu cried and hugged Jing Chunxi tightly as he suddenly sat up and yelled with red eyes.
Her fingers tightly grasped Jing Chunxi's sleeves, her face turned pale, and her voice was full of fear and worry.
"Sister~ wake up."
"Sister~Sister is fine."
Sister Jin, Mingzhu, Sister Yan, Ling'er and the others all rushed to the bedside, surprised and happy, jumping and shouting.
Several little girls huddled together, shouting in unison, with tears and smiles on their faces. They frantically wanted to touch Jing Chunxi but didn't dare to really touch him, for fear that this was just a fleeting illusion.
Chun Tao, whose attention was not originally on the bed, came back to her senses. She did not move forward immediately, but instead instructed Hong Fen beside her, "Hurry up and send someone to tell the prince and the prince that the princess has woken up."
Her voice was rapid and powerful, filled with suppressed excitement.
Just as Hongfen was about to run out, Chuntao stopped her with a gesture and shouted out the window, "Qiyue, go quickly and tell the princess that she has woken up." The shout was so powerful that it penetrated the doors and windows and startled the birds living in the yard.
This loud shout, in addition to July running away quickly, made the entire "Xichun Gui" boil over. The maids and servants ran around to tell each other, and the worries that had been suppressed for several days instantly turned into ecstasy. Even the branches of several large trees in the courtyard and the rockery seemed to sense this emotion and swayed, and the branches pressed towards the front yard. One or two black shadows that ordinary people could not see rushed towards the front yard like a gust of wind.
"What happened in the palace?"
She saw seven or eight sisters and maids staring at her without blinking, with a mixture of surprise and worry. Some of them even leaned in front of her, fearing that she would not recognize them or was unconscious.
Jing Chunxi took a deep breath, suppressed the palpitations brought by the nightmare, and pushed people forward with both hands, making them all move aside. Then he asked this question loudly, his tone firm and unquestionable.
Everyone was stunned, their mouths open, as if they had no idea why she had just woken up and suddenly blurted out such a nonsensical yet extremely serious and urgent sentence. No one responded for a moment.
"Hurry up, help me change clothes, I want to go to the palace." Jing Chunxi once again pushed away the women on the edge of the bed who did not say a word and just stared at her with an extremely anxious look, as if a moment's delay would lead to a disaster.
Her legs quickly slid to the edge of the bed, and then she stood up quickly. Although her body was still a little weak, her willpower supported her to stand steadily.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up, it's urgent. No skirts, we need light and loose clothes." She urged again, her voice filled with unquestionable majesty and urgency.
Chuntao finally came to her senses and quickly squeezed over, swiftly starting to prepare. Hongfen quickly dodged and ran to the side room to look for suitable clothes.
This time, although most people in the room still didn't understand what was going on, they were all shocked by her unprecedented urgency, and everyone started moving like clockwork.
Some people hurried out to get hot water, some people frantically looked for combs and hairpins, and some people squatted down to help her find suitable boots. Everyone's movements rose and fell with her expression. They were extremely nervous, but the most important thing was to be fast and not dare to delay for even a moment.
Xu Dingchun came in the fastest. His voice arrived before he even showed up. He just called out through the door curtain, "Xier is really awake?" and then rushed in like a gust of wind, his face a mixture of incredible surprise and lingering worry.
Qingfeng followed in a few moments later, but before he could even open his mouth, Jing Chunxi, who was sitting there waiting for someone to hastily comb their hair, caught a glimpse of him and immediately yelled, "Why are you here? Why aren't you in the palace protecting the master?"
Her eyes were sharp as a knife, with a clear rebuke. If Chun Tao and Xiao Yu hadn't been pulling her hair and combing it, she would have stood up and shouted at them immediately.
"Master, you left me behind to protect the princess. There are nearly sixty secret guards and Jinwu soldiers left behind." Qingfeng quickly knelt on one knee, lowered his head and replied respectfully, but his tone was very firm, indicating that this was an order that could not be disobeyed.
"He's crazy. He's the one who needs the most protection and is the most dangerous." Jing Chunxi was furious, his voice trembling slightly with anger and worry. He didn't know how many of the eight secret guards would be left for her. Without anyone to protect him, he was putting himself in danger. He was simply courting death!
"Hurry up and prepare the horses. You and I will go into the palace immediately. The secret guards will go first, and half of the Jinwu guards will also withdraw to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Emperor." Jing Chunxi stood up suddenly.
Not caring that her hair had not yet been fully combed, she quickly snatched the silver hairpin that Hongfen had just handed her and hastily inserted it into her bun to secure the loose strands of hair. She followed Ah Qi, who had turned around at the command, and strode out the door.
"I'll go with you, Xier, take my horse." Xu Dingchun reluctantly said this and followed closely behind her. He subconsciously freed his hands to protect both sides of her body, fearing that she would be too weak after waking up from a sleep and fall if she walked too fast.
"We have to hurry up, something is going to happen in the palace." Jing Chunxi trotted across the courtyard, adapting to the setting sun and dusk outside.
She lowered her voice and said hurriedly to Xu Dingchun beside her, "I dreamed that it was morning when the accident happened, and the sun had not risen very high." The ominous premonition in the dream was like a cold vine entwined around her heart.
These words startled Xu Dingchun, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his back. He had just been preparing to enter the palace as planned. Could it be that the incident in the palace had been brought forward? Or had the plan changed?
Jing Chunxi ran faster and faster, her steps even staggering but extremely firm. Suddenly she asked, "What time is it now?" She needed to judge the time accurately to race against the fragments in her dream.
