C46 Who to listen to?
In that case, who was Zhan Shou following orders from? This question caused Tang Ke to tremble with fear.
"Tang Kexin, it's enough. It's enough. Let's go back." Seeing that she had suddenly gotten so close to him and couldn't bear to continue watching, Ye Wu Chen directly pulled her back.
"What are you doing?" When the empress who had left the room saw this, she frowned slightly. "Chen'er, be careful. Don't hurt your heart."
"Hmph, it's better to be injured than to let her make a fool of herself." Ye Wu Chen glared at Tang Kexin. His expression didn't look too good.
"What's going on?" The empress was puzzled, but she had a faint smile on her face, thinking that it was just the two of them causing trouble.
"Ask her." Ye Lanchen obviously didn't want to say it out loud, or maybe he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
The empress turned her eyes to look at Tang Kexin.
The corner of Tang Ke's mouth moved. He wanted to say something, but stopped himself.
Right now, she did not have any evidence to prove that this matter was related to Zhan Bao. She could not tell anyone that she had observed it through her microcosm, and even if she had, no one would believe her.
Qiuju's incident yesterday had no flaws at all. Even though he had been secretly protecting Xiao Cui with Ye Lanchen's men last night, he had still managed to kill Xiao Cui without anyone noticing, so she knew that it would not be easy to find evidence.
Perhaps, it was not just the guard who was simple, it was the person behind the guard.
Now that Xiao Cui was dead, he definitely would not do anything in the near future. It would be unrealistic to go along with it.
However, if such a person were to continue to stay in the Peace Palace, he would be in danger at any time. It was a very dangerous situation.
More importantly, he still didn't know who the guard was obeying.
Tang Ke let out a sigh as he thought about how the emperor had chosen the imperial bodyguards for the empress. Suddenly, he felt a chill run down his spine.
What if that person was the Emperor? No, definitely not. If that was the case, then this matter was too terrifying and too cruel.
The Emperor was the ruler of a nation and held the greatest authority. If it really was him, who would be able to resist him?
In addition, the emperor was the queen's pillow person.
Your pillow man is your enemy who plotted against you! What could be scarier than this?
So, the most important thing now is to find out if this matter has anything to do with the Emperor? Of course, it would be best if he could get the imperial bodyguards to leave Kun Ning Palace as far away as possible.
However, she couldn't say this out loud, so she could only think of another way.
Tang Kexin's eyes flashed, and then she smiled. She said somewhat awkwardly, "I just think that Guard Captain Zhan is very good-looking. I went over to say a few words to Imperial Guard Zhan, what's wrong?" "Is there a problem?"
"You? Did you just say a few words? You were clearly teasing her. " At this moment, Ye Lanchen's tone was very harsh, "Moreover, the way you were just now, hmph ?"
"Xin'er?" As expected, the empress was stunned as she stared at her, her expression changing slightly. "You?"
"Zhan Bao is handsome, and his martial arts are high. He is truly a perfect man." Tang Kexin blinked, her face full of yearning and worship.
The empress's face grew dark, stiff and anxious.
"Right, esteemed empress, is Imperial Guard Zhan married?" Tang Ke looked at the empress and suddenly asked, his expression filled with anticipation.
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Ye Lan Chen viciously glared at her.
The empress subconsciously pressed her hand to her heart, as if she couldn't take it anymore. Her face had already completely changed.
"Of course it does. If he doesn't get married, I still have a chance, right?" Seeing the empress's reaction, Tang Kexin knew that she had achieved her goal, but she still added fuel to the fire.
The meaning behind her words was obvious enough, so the shock they had felt towards the empress was great enough. The greater the empress's shock, the smoother the matter would be.
Because she had studied psychology, her understanding of a person's mind was very thorough.
She knew that with the empress's love for her, she definitely wouldn't want her to fall in love with a guard, and it was even more impossible for her to have anything happen between her and a guard. Therefore, when the empress heard her words, she would definitely think of ways to move the guard away and kill everything before it happened.
Imperial Guard Zhan had been personally selected by the Emperor. If he wanted to transfer his Imperial bodyguards, he would have to pass by the Emperor. The next step would depend on how the Emperor dealt with this matter.
Only after the results were out could they determine if the emperor had anything to do with this matter? Or how much?
However, just as she finished speaking, she felt a cold light shoot straight from her back. It seemed to be able to instantly freeze her on this scorching summer day, and then slow her down one by one.
Tang Kexin did not turn her head, but she clearly knew who was behind her. Such a gaze that could freeze one to death was completely empty except for the third prince.
However, she didn't offend him, so why was he staring at her like that?
Was it because of what happened last night? When she thought about what happened last night, even though she was usually calm, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
"There is? What chance is there? You, you really want to marry him? " It was obvious that Ye Lanchen did not notice the person behind him, because at this moment, he was completely shocked and was unable to speak clearly. However, his words added fuel to the fire within the empress's heart.
"But who does Xin Xin want to marry?" A gentle and gentle voice sounded from behind him, carrying a hint of a smile.
Tang Kexin's eyes flickered. She could naturally tell that this was the voice of the crown prince. However, how did the crown prince address her?
But the heart? Did he know her that well? She was not used to the sudden title of Crown Prince.
However, she was the empress's niece, and was considered a cousin of the crown prince, so the title of crown prince was reasonable.
"Crown Prince, the third palace is here." The empress heard the crown prince's voice and quickly regained her senses. She kept the shock on her face and forced out a smile. "This little girl is messing around. I'm sorry, crown prince."
The corner of Ye Lan Chen's lips moved, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
"This son greets the empress." Since the empress had said this, the Crown Prince naturally didn't say anything else. He slowly bowed and looked at Tang Kexin with eyes that seemed to hide something.
"This son pays his respects to the empress." The third prince also bowed with his head slightly lowered. His pupils were slightly contracted and there was no expression on his face, nor was there anything out of the ordinary.
However, Tang Kexin could feel that the current him was filled with a danger that caused one to tremble in fear.
The crown prince bowed to the third prince, sat down for a while and left.
Esteemed Empress immediately found an excuse to leave the palace. Tang Ke knew in his heart that the empress must have gone to discuss the matter of Imperial Guard Zhan with the emperor.
As a result, she had stayed in the Palace to wait for the result. This result was extremely important.
However, he hadn't expected that the third prince, who had just left, would suddenly return.
"Third Imperial Brother, why are you back?" Seeing that the third prince had returned, Ye Lanchen was extremely surprised.
"You go out first." His eyes quickly swept across Ye Wu Chen. His voice was so cold that it made people shiver.
"Third Imperial Brother ?" Ye Lan Chen was stunned and a little bewildered.
"Don't let This King say it a second time." His sudden cold voice interrupted Ye Lanchen's words. That kind of arrogant domineering aura made people not dare to disobey.
Ye Lan Chen's body visibly stiffened as he looked hesitantly at Tang Ke Xin.
If he were to go out, would the Three Sovereigns hurt his heart?
"You can leave first." Tang Kexin gave Ye Lan Chen a comforting look, indicating that he could leave.
From the looks of it, the third prince had something to say to her?
Although Ye Wu Chen still didn't feel reassured, he still left.
At this moment, there were no other servants in the room. Once Ye Lan Chen left, there was only her and Ye Lan Jue left the room.
Tang Kexin raised her gaze and looked at him. When she met his eyes, which were so dangerous that they would suffocate anyone, her heart trembled.
He even said goodbye to Night Tide and had such an expression. Was it because he wanted to tell her something?
At this moment, his appearance was truly rather frightening. No, it should be said that it was extremely frightening. This caused Tang Ke to feel a faint unease within his heart. Just what was going on?
