Concubine Yao quickly got up and bowed slightly to him. "Your servant pays respects to Your Majesty," she said.
Her shy look was as if she were a beautiful bride-to-be. If someone didn't know her, they would surely praise her.
This young lady is truly as beautiful as a fish sinking and a wild goose alighting, unparalleled in beauty!
Helian Qi walked over slowly. He lifted her chin with one hand, but there was no emotion in his eyes.
Those eyes made Concubine Yao's heart tremble violently.
They were truly extremely delicate eyes, and his handsome appearance was also unparalleled in the world.
If she didn't know that he was just all appearance, she would think it was worth marrying him, she thought to herself.
After thinking this, she turned around and leaned into the man's arms in front of her.
Helian Qi frowned imperceptibly, but he still didn't let down his guard.
After all, he still hadn't guessed where her hidden trick was.
After thinking this, he distanced himself from the woman in front of him. Then he pretended to be happy and said, "My love is really beautiful today."
After saying that, he reached out and hugged her into his arms, walking slowly towards the bed.
The fragrance of the woman in his arms all got into his nose, but he wasn't moved at all.
He threw Concubine Yao onto the bed with a flick of his hand, and then leaned over her.
If he guessed correctly, her hidden weapon should be in her clothes.
Concubine Yao saw that he started to make a move on her, and her emotions began to get tense.
Just as Helian Qi was about to lift her clothes, there was a sudden loud noise at the palace gate.
He immediately turned over and got out of bed warily, staring intently at the source of the sound.
Then he saw a bleeding black-clothed man crawling in. With a choking voice, he said, "Your Majesty! The Empress... has been kidnapped!"
After saying that, he spat out a mouthful of blood and then fainted.
The black-clothed man was Jue.
Let's go back to when it just got dark tonight, in the Empress's palace.
Dongfang Yi was strolling in the main palace. Doctor Li said that more activities were good for blood circulation and the wounds on her back would heal faster.
It had to be said that the medicine sent by Helian Qi was truly miraculous. After using it for a day, the wounds began to scab quickly. Now as long as the wounds didn't split open again, they would gradually heal.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
She had already heard that Yaoji had been made a concubine. Although she knew it was just a plan, just thinking that Helian Qi would be with her briefly tonight made her heart ache.
But then she thought that today was the last day, and the ache in her heart lessened a bit.
After dinner, she dismissed Donghua and lay on the bed alone, thinking.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, there were sudden rustling sounds in the palace. She immediately pricked up her ears warily.
Then she saw a man in black night clothes break in.
Although his face was covered, his pair of blue eyes still proved that he was from the Southern Neighboring Country.
She saw him walking step by step towards the bed. Dongfang Yi shouted fearfully, "Who are you?!"
She could hear the black-clothed man chuckling deeply.
His laughter immediately made Dongfang Yi feel creepy. This laughter was all too familiar.
Wasn't this the Second Prince Ye of the Southern Neighboring Country!
Thinking of this, Dongfang Yi's heart skipped a beat. Then she shouted loudly again, "Jue——!!!"
The shout was so loud that anyone who heard it would know that she had used all her strength.
Soon Jue ran in from outside the palace. After seeing the person, he got entangled with him.
But Jue didn't seem to be his match. After a few rounds, he suddenly seemed to be poisoned and knelt on the ground, twitching.
Dongfang Yi immediately thought that Ye must have used a hidden weapon and it was poisoned.
Ye didn't even look at Jue on the ground. Instead, he walked up to Dongfang Yi without hesitation and picked her up with one hand.
Because of the wound on her back, she couldn't do any resistance at all and could only let him hold her hostage.
Ye looked at the woman in front of him. Then he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "This king has said that you will surely belong to me."
"Shut up. Why should I belong to you? Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you've captured me. Using hidden weapons in a fight is not what a hero does!" Dongfang Yi blurted out these words in anger.
After hearing this, Ye's eyes widened in disbelief. He didn't expect this woman to be so fierce and still be able to scold people at this time.
Wait, how did she know that he had used a hidden weapon? He had always been very careful about his hidden weapon technique.
A hidden weapon was supposed to be used secretly without being discovered.
"How do you know I used a hidden weapon?!" he asked with a surprised tone.
Dongfang Yi rolled her eyes mentally.
Jue was lying on the ground in such a state, and neither of them seemed to be hurt much. What else could it be if it wasn't a hidden weapon?
Seeing that the woman in front of him ignored him, Ye didn't get curious anymore. So he was about to take her and escape.
After all, the purpose today was to kidnap her out of the palace.
Just as they were about to leave, Donghua showed up in time. After seeing the scene in the palace, she immediately exclaimed, "Your Highness——!"
"Donghua, you're finally here!" Dongfang Yi looked at the woman in front of her full of expectation.
But Ye just sneered. She was just a young girl.
He got entangled with Donghua.
Jue beside them also stood up painfully and joined the fight.
Ye didn't expect Donghua's martial arts to be so good, and with Jue's help, he knew he might not have the upper hand. So he grabbed Dongfang Yi and fled towards the outside of the palace.
Donghua quickly chased after them and said to Jue behind her, "Go and report to His Majesty!" Then the three of them disappeared into the night.
So this was how it came to this moment. Jue, poisoned and injured, came to the Chengan Palace to report this to the emperor.
After hearing this, Helian Qi's face immediately turned cold, and his eyes were filled with undisguised anger and killing intent.
Then he strode towards the outside of the palace, but Concubine Yao reached out and grabbed his sleeve.
"Your Majesty, let the guards handle the matter of the Empress," she said like this.
Her eyes were as gentle as autumn water.
But Helian Qi just gave her a cold look and then shook off his sleeve. He continued walking towards the outside of the palace and said without looking back to the servants behind him, "Watch over Concubine Yao well!"
Then he disappeared into the Lanfang Garden.
Dongfang Yi was his bottom line. He would never ignore her for anyone.
Now she had been kidnapped at this moment, and according to Jue, all this was related to the Southern Neighboring Country. His anger in his heart became even stronger.
