Liu Shengsheng glanced at Nan Muze meaningfully.
Nan Muze said coldly: "Why is the assassin so powerful that he has to put us under house arrest to protect us?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience froze.
Perhaps Nan Muze's aura was too strong. As soon as he opened his mouth, all the soldiers in front knelt on the ground.
"Prince-in-law, please calm down. We are also following the Queen's orders. Please understand, Prince-in-law!"
"The assassin hasn't been caught yet. If Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Prince Consort meet the assassin after they go out, the Queen will definitely blame them!"
"Your Highness, please understand!"
"Please, Your Highness the Princess and the Prince Consort please return to the palace and wait!"
"..."
Looking at the trembling soldiers, Liu Shengsheng felt helpless, "That's all, they are obeying orders, don't embarrass them."
After saying that, she took Nan Muze's hand and walked back.
After turning around, Nan Muze said coldly: "There's something fishy."
Liu Shengsheng's expression gradually became cold, "I can see it."
If the assassin had not been caught, these people could have searched for the assassin all over the palace, and there was no need to come here to keep an eye on them.
They told the Queen a few days ago that they would go back in the next two days. The Queen could have guessed that they would say goodbye today, but today they sent someone to put them under "house arrest" here. If something hadn't happened, The thing is, I just don’t want them to leave...
But why did the queen do this?
It can't be that you just can't bear to let them go, right?
After all, the queen is quite considerate and would normally not do such a thing to embarrass them.
Unless the assassin this time was something serious, the queen did feel the danger, and indeed sent someone to protect them...
But if it's really a powerful assassin, what's the use of sending so many people here to guard it?
Don't they have to solve it themselves in the end?
The most important thing is that even though he said he wanted to see her, she ran to see the emperor.
If some powerful assassin really came, shouldn't she panic and guard her?
Liu Shengsheng's heart was full of doubts, and she returned to the main hall unknowingly.
At this time, Yichen had already approached them with his luggage and a smile on his face.
"Girl, I've packed up. When are we leaving?"
Liu Shengsheng said nothing.
Nan Muze's expression was also cold.
After staying with them for a long time, Yichen quickly understood that something happened, and his expression became serious on the spot, "What happened?"
Liu Shengsheng said: "Sneak out and investigate what happened in the palace."
Yichen nodded, threw his luggage on the chair next to him, and left in a flash.
A moment later, he reappeared in the hall.
"Girl, assassins appeared in the East Palace last night, and the assassins were still targeting the prince's two children. However, they have saved the children and are now protecting them quietly."
Liu Shengsheng said helplessly: "We have heard about this matter, but is there anything we don't know about?"
Yichen scratched his head, "I don't know what the girl didn't know, but there was a lot of movement outside. The entire palace was patrolled by guards, and the palace doors were closed tightly, as if they were afraid of the assassins escaping. Obviously, So far, they haven't caught the assassin."
"I just went out for a little stroll and found that the people in the palace were in panic. Everyone was in a hurry, as if something terrible had happened. However, I didn't arrest anyone for questioning, and I didn't know what happened. "
"Did the queen really go to find the father?"
That's what Liu Shengsheng asked.
Yichen immediately shook his head, "No! I just saw the queen. She was with the prince, and the second prince was also there. They gathered around and didn't know what they were talking about. Everyone's expression was quite ugly. Look at them like that son
, as if looking for the assassin personally..."
"Are the three of them together?" Nan Muze asked doubtfully.
Yichen nodded, "We were together just now, but when I left, the three of them also separated. Seeing how hurried they were, they didn't know what they were going to do. Then the emperor has been in the imperial study room, It seems that many ministers have come to look for him, and I don’t know what they are talking about.”
"After all, there were too many secret guards near the royal study, and I couldn't get close, so I couldn't know what happened specifically. But from the expressions of the queen and the prince, we could tell that something big must have happened in the palace... "
Liu Shengsheng reached out and rubbed her head, "Since something big happened, why aren't we allowed out?"
Yichen said slowly: "Could it be that some powerful assassins really came, and they wanted to protect the girl, so they didn't let her out?"
"Even if I go out, they can still protect me."
Liu Shengsheng said expressionlessly, "Besides, this is more like house arrest."
Hearing this, Yichen's expression suddenly became more serious, "Then I'll go take a look."
As he said that, he was about to walk out, but he bumped into Lei Yutian at the door.
He looked disgusted, "Where did you go? I thought you ran away."
Lei Yutian looked calm, "I won't run."
As he spoke, he walked into the door step by step, "Last night, a big event happened in the capital. I asked about it for half a night, and I probably understood a little bit, but I didn't know if I could talk about it."
Yichen looked at him blankly, "You've reached this point, can't you finish the rest at once?"
Lei Yutian looked at Liu Shengsheng intently, "The Queen and the Emperor probably don't want the princess to know. Even the Crown Prince and the Second Prince are trying their best to hide the news, so I don't know if I can tell it."
Yichen frowned, "Your current mistress is my girl, what do you care about other people?"
Lei Yutian ignored him and just stared at Liu Shengsheng.
Liu Shengsheng said slowly: "Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Thunderstorm lowered his head.
"Last night, several assassins with high martial arts skills broke into the East Palace and wanted to assassinate the Crown Princess and the two..."
"I already know this, don't keep repeating it." Liu Shengsheng was really helpless.
Lei Yutian nodded and then said: "The assassins failed to kidnap the prince's two children. After escaping, they were not caught for a long time. Soon after, many people suddenly appeared in the capital to report to the official. Every report to the official Everyone said that their children were lost."
Yichen said seriously: "You mean, someone tried to kidnap the prince's two children, and after they failed, they kidnapped the children of ordinary people?"
Lei Yutian nodded, "Yes."
"No, are you kidding us? Those assassins kidnapping the prince's children must be valuable, but what's the use of kidnapping the children of ordinary people? Besides, even if they really kidnapped many children of ordinary people, what's the point? What does it have to do with my girl?" Yichen really couldn't understand, why couldn't this guy get to the point directly?
Lei Yutian's eyes were serious, "Originally, this matter has nothing to do with you, but the problem lies in that after those children were kidnapped, a note was left in the homes of the common people, which said: If you want to find the children, Just look for Princess Liu Shengsheng."
Liu Shengsheng's face suddenly darkened.
Nan Muze also frowned, his face as dark as ink.
