Chapter 384 Xiao Jingxuan takes action
As a princess, Huo Zi Yan was Nalan Ze's only sister. She would rather wander in the Yuan Dynasty thousands of miles away, live in the small village of Wenggang, and suffer all kinds of hardships to raise her daughter alone, than return to Penglai Kingdom. It can be seen that she must have suffered a lot of injustice back then.
That kind of grievance might not have been caused by outsiders, but by her family.
Therefore, before knowing Nalan Ze's attitude, Ye Tang decided to observe first.
Xiao Jingxuan waited for Ye Tang to finish speaking before whispering in her ear, "I just heard something interesting. Penglai is quite open-minded and women also have the right of inheritance. Before the late emperor passed away, he had thought of making my grandmother the crown princess."
Ye Tang's pupils shrank: "I understand."
It is very likely that her grandmother was killed by Nalan Ze, because without her grandmother, Nalan Ze could naturally inherit the throne.
Nalan Ze has been emperor for nearly forty years, but he has not given up looking for his grandmother. This shows how vigilant he is and how vicious his mind is.
Ye Tang tortured Nalan Ze thousands of times in his heart.
Nalan Ze was talking to the minister when he suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if he had been cursed.
Suddenly, a palace maid came over with cakes, but when she approached him, she was stopped by the eunuch.
"Just give the things to us!" The eunuch was about to reach out to take it, but the palace maid suddenly looked fierce, pulled out a dagger from under the plate, and stabbed the eunuch.
The eunuch was startled and quickly stepped back: "There is an assassin, protect the emperor!"
The palace maid's dagger pierced his shoulder, and when it was pulled out, a pool of blood was drawn.
The palace maid pounced towards Nalan Ze and arrived in front of Nalan Ze in the blink of an eye.
The commander of the Royal Guards quickly stood in front of the maiden and pierced him with a sword.
But the next second, several more assassins pounced on Nalan Ze.
Some of these assassins escaped from slaves, some from the Royal Guards, and some were accomplices of the assassins among the soldiers.
Assassins come from all directions, making it difficult to guard against them.
The scene fell into chaos in an instant.
Everywhere there were voices shouting for protection and the sounds of men and women screaming.
Some ministers hurriedly came to Nalan Ze under the pretext of protecting the emperor. On the surface, they wanted to protect the emperor, but in fact they wanted the imperial guards to protect them.
Nalanze was squeezed hard by these people.
Just when he was getting annoyed, a young man suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed him.
When Nalan Ze was young, he was a martial arts expert, leading his troops to fight and dominate the sea, and nothing could be taken from him, but now he is old, and his reflexes are not as good as before.
When the young man swung the dagger at him, Nalan Ze noticed him and wanted to dodge, but his body was out of control and he was a beat slow.
The dagger was about to pierce his heart.
A hand reached out, grabbed the young man's wrist, and then kicked him away.
Boom!
The young man flew out of the protective circle uncontrollably like a cannonball and hit a big tree heavily.
Nalan Ze raised his eyes and found that the person who saved him was Ye Tang, the Princess Pingshan of the Yuan Dynasty.
Ye Tang ignored the surprised expressions of the crowd and looked at the guards coldly and said, "There are so many assassins sneaking into the hunting ground. What are you doing? Why don't you catch the assassins quickly?"
The guards instantly came to their senses and continued to deal with the assassin.
Ye Tang retired after accomplishing his mission and moved to Xiao Jingxuan's side. Unexpectedly, the couple found themselves hiding not far from Nalan Ze.
In less than half an hour, all the assassins were killed and the young man was captured alive.
He was the biological son of a minister who was present. When the minister saw that his son was an assassin, he ran out crawling.
"Your Majesty, please spare my life. I don't know why Li Yi is an assassin. Although he is my son, I really don't know anything!"
Nalan Ze refused to listen to his explanation and ordered his men to tie up the father and son and interrogate them severely on the spot.
Before the interrogation results came out, a soldier rushed out of the hunting ground, sweating profusely, and said, "Your Majesty, there are assassins in the hunting ground, and many people are injured."
The appearance of the assassin caused chaos in the hunting ground and hunting could no longer continue.
Nalan Ze sent a large group of people to the hunting ground to search for people, and he was determined to find everyone back.
It was not until dark that all the people were found. Most of them were injured, with the Second Prince and Nalan Xu being the most seriously injured.
One of Nalanxu's arms was almost disabled.
He told Nalan Ze painfully: "Grandfather Emperor, as soon as my grandson entered the mountain, a guard behind him suddenly attacked me, and another guard following me was killed. Thanks to Shangguan Ruiguang who saved my grandson, I was able to save my life."
Shangguan Ruiguang is a young member of the Shangguan clan who has awakened divine power, and is the youngest of all those who possess divine power.
There were imperial doctors at the hunting ground, but there were too few of them and too many injured people, so the doctors were overwhelmed. Fortunately, there were many people from the Nan family at the scene who knew medicine and they immediately joined the team to treat people.
"No, no, His Royal Highness, the right hand of the Emperor's eldest grandson is too seriously injured. I can only stop the bleeding and bandage it for now. After it is healed, I am afraid, I am afraid..."
Seeing the imperial physician hesitating, Nalan Ze became angry: "Tell me clearly whether Xu'er's hand can be cured."
"It can be cured, but after the cure, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold a sword. Not only that, it will also affect your writing and painting."
Nalan Ze couldn't believe it: "How can this be possible? Xu'er's hand must not be damaged. Cure him. You must cure him without leaving any sequelae."
The crown prince is weak. At the age of forty, his health is not as good as that of a man in his sixties. He will not live to succeed to the throne. Without the crown prince, the emperor's eldest grandson will be the next heir. If he is also deposed, the heir will have to be replaced.
However, the candidates for the throne that Nalan Ze valued most were the crown prince and Nalan Xu. Although the crown prince was weak, he was extremely intelligent and had a love for the people. After he succeeded to the throne, he would surely love the people and become a wise ruler.
Although Nalan Xu was a little playful, his intelligence and talent were no less than his father's.
The imperial physician tried several more times, but he could only stop the bleeding and suture the wound for Nalan Xu, and his tendons and bones were still affected.
"Your Majesty, the best thing to do now is to quickly invite Dr. Nan here."
Doctor Nan is the Queen's younger brother and the most skilled Chinese medicine practitioner in the Nan family. He is not in the hunting ground at the moment.
Nalan Ze had already sent people to invite Doctor Nan, but the hunting ground was too far away from the Nan family's old house, and it would take at least more than an hour to go there and back.
Given Nalan Xu's current condition, by the time Doctor Nan arrives, I'm afraid he won't be able to save his right hand.
At the anxious moment, Jamel Xiao stood up helplessly.
"Can you let me take a look? I know a little bit about medicine."
He and Ye Tang knew about the conspiracy of the Second Prince's Miao clan, and knew that there would be chaos in the hunting ground today, but this was Penglai Kingdom, not the Yuan Dynasty. They were unfamiliar with the place and could not interfere in other people's affairs, so they chose to avoid it.
I originally thought that the Second Prince was going to deal with Nalan Ze and put the blame on the Crown Prince, and that Nalan Xu would be fine. Who knew that this kid would be injured like this.
Xiao Jingxuan originally wanted to sit back and do nothing, after all, he and Nalan Xu had no big relationship, but Ye Tang pushed him out.
