Chapter 236 I'm afraid it won't work
"Xin'er!"
When Ye Qi saw Bai Xin's action, he called out to Bai Xin with some concern and gave her a warning.
"I am willing to believe in a patriotic person!"
Bai Xin handed the five-pointed star to Ling Yuran and said while looking at her with a smile.
"Ok!"
Ling Yuran looked at Bai Xin with shining eyes, took the five-pointed star she handed over, and responded with an affirmative sound.
Then she led her maid, changed her usual slow and ladylike pace, and quickly disappeared into the darkness of the corridor.
"Do you really believe her?"
Ye Qi looked at the disappearing figure and asked in a cold voice, always feeling that Xin'er's belief in her was a bit far-fetched.
"Believe it or not, we have already arrived at the palace gate. There is no way back. We can only bet that what she said is true!"
"My words and numbers are all encrypted. Only Li Ze can understand them. Let them confirm the authenticity of the message, take precautions, and pass the message on."
"If Ling Yao really makes a move tonight, there must be ambushes inside and outside the palace. If what Ling Yuran said is true, there will definitely be a bloody storm!"
"Let's go in and try to delay time so that Li Ze and the others can find a way to get help!"
After Bai Xin finished speaking, he looked at the maids and gave them instructions seriously.
"I didn't bring any weapons with me when I entered the palace today. Each of the four of you should carry a scalpel on your body so that you can use it when necessary!"
"Yes!"
The four girls opened the medical kits they carried with them, took out a scalpel, wrapped the incision, and put it close to their bodies.
Bai Xin also took a scalpel and put it on his body. He couldn't escape now and didn't know what would happen next. He had to protect himself when necessary.
Then she took out a scalpel and gave it to Ye Qi, asking him to keep it close to him. No one brought any weapons into the palace today. Fortunately, she had scalpels of various types, which were usually kept in the medicine box, and the emperor had allowed her to carry them with her.
"Xin'er!"
When Ye Qi saw their actions, his heart trembled a little. It was not because he was afraid of killing the enemy in front of the battle line, but because he was afraid that Xin'er would be hurt.
"General, I've said that I will sleep with you in life and in death!"
Bai Xin looked at him seriously and tried to comfort him. She knew he was worried, but being afraid was useless.
"I will fight for you to the end!" Ye Qi said as he gently stroked her face with one hand and hugged her tightly with the other.
"Well, I believe you, Ye Qi!"
Bai Xin looked at him and smiled brightly.
If they really die here, the two of them will be considered to live and die together.
After they had packed up everything, they stood in front of the palace gate, calmly waiting for the eunuch who would deliver the message.
"General, Madam, please come in!"
After waiting for a while, the messenger eunuch came out from the palace gate and bowed to invite them in.
"Didn't they say that the eldest prince had a seizure? Why did they make us wait so long?"
Bai Xin asked the eunuch in a cold voice.
"There are many royal nobles in Zhaohua Hall. I was afraid of violating the etiquette, so I waited for a while before reporting to Your Majesty. Therefore, I was delayed for some time. Please forgive me, Madam."
The eunuch said humbly.
After entering the palace gate, they walked for a long time before arriving at the main hall of Zhaohua Hall. Bai Xin and Ye Qi looked around. In addition to the main hall, there were many houses in the courtyard of Zhaohua Hall. All of them were dark, even the lanterns hanging at the door were not lit. The entire Zhaohua Hall was shrouded in darkness.
"Boom..."
Another thunder sounded, and then a flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the entire Zhaohua Hall. Although it was only for a moment, Ye Qi saw a head moving in the room.
In addition to the aura he felt, there were quite a few people hiding in the courtyard of Zhaohua Hall.
Before entering the palace gate, several people secretly took a deep breath.
The main door was opened, and Bai Xin and Ye Qi stared at the situation inside the house vigilantly.
The room was brightly lit. The first thing that caught the eye was the portraits of kings from past dynasties hanging on the central wall of the main hall. Candlelight flickered and incense smoke curled. On the right stood the princes and nobles whom Bai Xin and the others rarely saw, and on the left stood Qing Shi and Ling Hao, with only a child in their arms.
Ling Rui and Mu Wanning were also among them, but although there were many people, no one spoke. When they saw Bai Xin and the others come in, they looked at Bai Xin with some panic.
Bai Xin and Ye Qi pretended nothing happened. After entering the hall, they first bowed to the main hall, and then saluted to the other princes and nobles.
No one spoke and the atmosphere was a little weird for a while, but Bai Xin and Ye Qi could only stay put.
"My Lady, is the eldest prince okay?"
After the ceremony, Bai Xin walked up to Qing Shi first, looked at him calmly and asked.
"Ah Xin..., Dabao is not well."
Yu Qingshi spoke with some trembling as she looked at Bai Xin, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
"Don't worry, ma'am. Let me take a look!"
Bai Xin looked at her and comforted her.
I lifted up Dabao’s blanket and planned to check on him.
A sinister voice came from behind.
"do not move!"
I'm sorry, Ah Xin, they caught Xiao Bao!" Qing Shi couldn't hold back any longer and broke down crying.
"Don't cry, don't be afraid!"
Bai Xin reached out and wiped the tears from Qing Shi’s face, then turned around with cold eyes to look in the direction of the voice.
A sharp knife was placed on Ye Qi's neck, and behind Ye Qi stood Ling Yao with a sinister look.
With a "bang", the door was closed.
A group of people dressed as guards rushed out from the back of the hall and surrounded the hall on all sides. Everyone was panicked.
Ling Rui and Ling Hao stared at Ling Yao coldly. Shu Ru blocked Yu Ran behind him and also glared at Ling Yao angrily.
"Let him go!"
Bai Xin scolded Ling Yao coldly. Seeing Ye Qi with a knife at his neck and his hands and feet tied, his heart ached.
"Humph, I will kill whoever I want today. If you dare to move, my young master, as well as my father and the queen, may not see the sun tomorrow!"
Ling Yao looked at the emperor and empress at the back of the palace. They were being held hostage by several guards with knives. The emperor leaned weakly in his chair and could only stare coldly at everything in front of him.
The Queen and Concubine Wei were each on either side of him, supporting the staggering Emperor and glaring at them.
Liang Fei held Xiao Bao in her arms, stood beside him, and looked at everything in front of her with disdain.
"He is the father, how dare you!"
Ling Rui looked at him and said with gritted teeth.
"My father hates me. He says I am an ungrateful person. He would rather promote a sickly person like you to a high position than to care about me!"
Ling Yao looked at him madly and accused him.
"Father has never treated you harshly, nor has he treated Concubine Liang harshly. Even though Concubine Liang was demoted to a beauty, she was not confined to her house. Instead, she took advantage of the opportunity and poisoned Father. Now you want to force the emperor to abdicate and seize the throne. You are so bold!"
Ling Hao also looked at him and scolded.
"Haha, you abandoned me in such a bitter and cold place, and you still say you haven't treated me harshly!"
Ling Yao said with bloodshot eyes.
"And you, bitch! I love you, but you dare to join forces with them to harm me!"
Ling Yao turned his eyes and looked at Bai Xin and said gritting his teeth, and the knife pressing on Ye Qi's neck exerted a little force, and fine beads of blood oozed out.
Ye Qi just had a cold face, and his expression did not change at all.
"I am the one who hurt you, you are not allowed to touch him!"
Bai Xin looked at him and said with gritted teeth, Ye Qi's bright red blood stimulated her eyes, making her a little excited.
