Hong'er was not surprised at all that Si Ning made such a request.
The sense of urgency can make people forget to think. This Mrs. Lu looks too dull and not an exciting person.
She was probably scared, worried that such a big thing would involve her, so she wanted to find the person as soon as possible.
Hong'er looked troubled and pointed to the noisy outer courtyard.
"Maybe the tenth prince is outside. It looks very small here and there is no place to hide."
This was not what she said before. Si Ning lowered his eyes and said to Hong'er seemingly in embarrassment.
"Sister, this is my first time entering the palace. I don't want to encounter this kind of thing. There are too many people in front of me, and I feel a little scared. Why don't I just search in the backyard, and you can go to the front first."
Sure enough, I was scared!
A sneer flashed through Hong'er's heart, and she nodded coldly.
"Well, you go in and take a look, I'll wait for you in front."
Si Ning was relieved, turned around and opened the door. As soon as he stepped out, a hand behind his back pushed her in through the fabric.
His body became unstable and he stumbled into the house.
As soon as she turned around, the door behind her was locked from the outside.
Si Ning stared and screamed, but the people outside were indifferent, and instead the footsteps walked away.
After making sure that no one was outside, Si Ning stopped and looked around the room.
The windows were sealed with wooden bars, and only some light could penetrate through the gaps.
Although it was dim, it was enough to see everything in the room clearly.
This is an abandoned room. Someone must have lived in it before. There are tables, chairs, and a wardrobe.
But now they are all piled up with clutter, and the house is filled with gray tones.
Looking at the area as big as a palm, there is nothing unusual.
But Si Ning feels that the biggest problem is here!
Hong'er went through all the trouble to lead her here to be imprisoned. She must not have simply wanted to imprison herself.
There must be another mystery in this house!
He walked towards the closet, reached out and opened it, and sure enough he saw a small body half leaning there.
The tenth prince!
Si Ning stared, surprise flashed across his face, and at the same time, all such expressions flashed across his face.
She rushed to detect his breath, but found nothing, but found that her little body was already cold.
Si Ning's heart sank, and he checked his pulse without giving up. Although the pulse was weaker than his breathing, it was still faintly detectable.
This means that the person is not completely dead yet, and there is still a chance to save him.
The tone that Si Ning was holding suddenly relaxed a little.
Now there is nothing I don’t understand.
The body of the tenth prince appeared in the same room as hers. No one cares whether she killed him or not. She will bear the blame.
The place of the accident was still in Qingyan Palace, and Concubine Shu could not escape her involvement.
A great game that kills two birds with one stone!
Si Ning didn't even know that he had such a great reputation that it was worthy of the other party using a prince to set up a trap.
Not daring to delay, he took the tenth prince out of the closet and laid him flat on the bed.
First, she took out a silver needle and pierced his Baitong point, and then unbuttoned his clothes, trying to see how the other party wanted to kill him.
If there is still a chance of death from strangulation or suffocation, it will be impossible to save the life if any effort is used.
As soon as he took off half of his clothes, there were rapid footsteps outside the door.
"Your Majesty, a servant saw the Tenth Prince entering that room. I just told Madam Lu that the Tenth Prince might be in that room, but Madam Lu refused to let me in. I don't know why. I don't know. I dare to argue with Mrs. Lu, but I dare not alarm Concubine Shu. After all, she is pregnant and cannot be angry. This slave has alarmed you..."
The room was not soundproof, and the other party did not deliberately lower his voice, so the people inside could hear him clearly.
The blood in Si Ning's body froze, and the sense of urgency made her breathing become heavier.
Even the current Holy Emperor was alarmed. It seemed that the other party was determined to kill her!
But now is not the time to think about this. The tenth prince can still be saved. She cannot be faced by people outside, which delays the best treatment time and ruins a living life.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and Si Ning moved his hands a little faster.
If there is no way to escape, first determine the cause of the tenth prince's death, and then think of a way.
In order to delay time, Si Ning locked the door from the inside to ensure that those people could not break in immediately and buy more time to save people.
Hong'er took the emperor to the backyard of Qingyan Palace, and Concubine Shu also hurried over after hearing the news.
She stopped the emperor's way and asked in a very calm tone.
"Why is the emperor here?"
The emperor's cold face did not show the usual spring warmth, but instead his eyebrows were knitted a little tighter.
He glanced at Concubine Shu lightly and gave orders to the guards beside him.
"Open the door for me."
This was the first time that the emperor had failed to treat Concubine Shu in front of outsiders since she was favored.
Hong'er saw everything in her eyes, slightly twitching the corners of her mouth, and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.
Concubine Shu lost face and lost her temper. She arrogantly asked the emperor questions.
"Your Majesty, why are you searching my Qingyan Palace? Have I done something so heinous that it deserves such a mobilization of troops?"
The emperor's eyes fell on her face little by little, and his eyes narrowed as he looked at this bright and moving face.
"Are you questioning me, my beloved concubine?"
Concubine Shu half bent her body and replied coldly.
"I don't dare. I just don't know what I did wrong. The tenth prince came to Qingyan Palace early in the morning and made a big fuss. Not long after he left, a little palace maid wrongly accused me of hiding the tenth prince secretly. I've toured Qingyan Palace over and over again, but I still won't give up. Now I've invited the emperor to come and make the decision."
"Your Majesty, I just want to know what I did wrong. I am so unpopular that even a little palace maid can ride on my head!"
The emperor listened to her words, and his eyes flashed with confusion.
"Shu Fei, nothing can happen to Xiao Shi, you know."
Concubine Shu did not give in, "The tenth prince has left. I have said it many times. You cannot wrong me with just the words of a slave..."
"Are you planning to disobey me?"
"I don't dare!"
The emperor sneered and shouted at the eunuch who was hanging his head and pretending to be dead.
"Go open the door!"
After the eunuch opened the door from the outside, he found that it was locked inside. When he returned, the emperor said with a gloomy expression.
"Go and open the door. It doesn't matter if Xiao Shi isn't inside today. If he is, Concubine Shu, you have to give me an explanation..."
The eunuchs heard that there was no need to delay, and several eunuchs worked together to slam into the closed door.
The carved door was quickly opened, and what caught the eye was Si Ning's delicate face.
Several eunuchs looked at each other, hurriedly stepped aside, and turned to reply to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I don't see the tenth prince. What's inside is..."
They didn't know what to call Si Ning. Concubine Shu hurriedly walked over and saw that Si Ning's hair was a little messy and he was standing in front of the door looking at her. When looking at the room, no one else was found except her. Secretly he breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned to look at the emperor with a worried tone.
"Your Majesty, you saw that the Tenth Prince is not here..."
