Chapter 105

When the emperor learned that the Eighth and Ninth Princesses met the assassin, his face turned green with anger.

These people are really bold, dare to assassinate her daughter in front of her face.

"Go and find Lou Ziqing for me. I think it's time for her to be replaced as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army!"

The emperor was so angry that he dropped the teacup in his hand, De Laizhi frowned in distress, and then hurried out to find someone.

The accompanying imperial doctor had bandaged the wounds of the two imperial daughters, except for His Highness Ninth Prince's shoulder injury, which was more serious, and His Highness Eighth Prince's left arm with a deep sword wound.

"Fortunately, no vitals were injured, but the two Highnesses have lost a lot of blood. During this period of time, you should take good care of them."

The imperial doctor was afraid that Su Qiruo and Su Yike would not be able to withstand the temptation of hunting when they were young, and they would not be able to run out of the game and damage their wounds, so they ordered them deliberately.

"There is Doctor Lao Hu."

Imperial Physician Hu just left Su Qiruo's place, and was invited by the emperor there.

After truthfully reporting the injuries of the two Highnesses to the emperor, Imperial Physician Hu withdrew.

"Delai, who do you think will kill them?"

The emperor murmured that if someone assassinated the empress dowager and the fifth child, she would understand it, but it was strange that the assassins were the eighth child who had always been indifferent to the world and the obedient ninth child.

Imperial Physician Hu said that if Su Qiruo's shoulder injury was further down, then her life would be lost.

De Lai pursed his lips, and seeing that the emperor had been waiting for her to speak, he boldly said: "If you come here for the Eighth Prince, it really can't be justified. But the Ninth Prince..."

Delai didn't say what he said clearly, but the emperor understood it.

"It's best that this matter has nothing to do with them, otherwise I will never forgive you lightly."

Dare to kill her daughter, is this avenging Zhang Yuman's scourge?

She has already given Zhang Zikai enough face, and did not bring Zhang Yuman's crimes into trouble, yet Zhang Zikai is still not satisfied.

If this matter is really Zhang Zikai's doing, then the Zhang family will definitely not be able to stay. A family that hates the royal family, how can the emperor put her by his side?
"Actually, this is just our guess. Isn't the Zhang family still living behind closed doors?"

De Lai is the emperor's most trusted person, but she has always been impeccable in her words.

First, he pointed the finger at the Zhang family, and now he excused the Zhang family.

But the emperor probably already determined that this matter was done by the Zhang family, apart from Zhang Zikai, who else would do anything to the young Su Qiruo?
With Delai's words, Su Qiruo and Su Yike's injuries were finally not in vain.

After the two bandaged their wounds, they went to meet the emperor. At this time, Lou Ziqing, who had gone to capture the assassin, hadn't come back yet.

"You two still have injuries, please sit down and talk!"

Su Qiruo was taken aback by the emperor's words, but she still remembered that she stood in the imperial study room for nearly two hours after fighting with Zhang Yuman last time!
Is this the sun coming out from the west today?

"Thank you, Empress."

The two thanked each other, and then dragged their injured bodies to sit down.

When the emperor saw the pale lips of the two daughters, he became more and more angry.

She is not willing to treat her daughter like this. When is it someone else's turn to hurt them?
Although the emperor said that he was not close to his daughters, he did not punish them much, let alone beat them with injuries all over their bodies.

"You two fought those assassins, what did you find?"

The emperor's complexion was not good, and he didn't ease up much when facing the injured two daughters.

Su Qiruo and Su Yike looked at each other, their faces were full of hesitation, even if they wanted to tell the emperor not to be careless, it would be difficult.

"The two of you are speaking truthfully, no matter who it is, I will never tolerate it."

The emperor thought it was because of the fear in the hearts of the two of them, so he didn't dare to speak.

Su Qiruo pursed her lips and was about to speak, but Su Yike took a step ahead.

"Returning to the Queen Mother, I didn't find anything unusual about those assassins, but they stabbed Jiuhuangmei, and kept saying that Jiuhuangmei offended someone who shouldn't be offended. I was also very puzzled, Jiuhuangmei The imperial sister is young, even if she holds a position in the court, it is only an insignificant position, when did she offend someone?"

It is indeed much better for Su Yike to say this than Su Qiruo took the initiative, at least it can reduce the emperor's suspicion.

"Sister Eighth Emperor, I'm sorry! It's the younger sister who has troubled you."

Su Qiruo said with an apologetic face, eyes full of guilt.

Seeing this, the emperor became more and more angry.

Fortunately, she is self-disciplined, and the Zhang family probably did the trick.

Apart from having a fight with Zhang Yuman, where did Su Qiruo offend others?
Delai, who was behind the emperor, narrowed his eyes, and he also believed in his heart that it was the Zhang family who did it.

It's just that Zhang Zikai has always been impeccable in his work, so why would he ask the killer to say these things in front of the eighth and ninth emperors?

But this is not necessarily the case, maybe those assassins are too arrogant, thinking that the two imperial daughters who are alone are young and will undoubtedly die, so they dare to speak so boldly.

"We are all sisters, what are you talking about? It's good that people are fine."

Su Yike raised her uninjured arm and patted the back of Su Qiruo's hand lightly, that movement couldn't be more natural.

Looking at the wounds on the two daughters, the doubts in the emperor's heart disappeared.

At this moment, the princess hurried in with a bow and arrow on her back, her face was pale and her brows were tightly frowned.

"My son pays respects to the Queen Mother."

It was not considered a rule to salute the emperor, and then turned to look at the two younger sisters.

Before, I was just talking about acting, and I didn't say that I would really get hurt!
How did two people get hurt like this?
Could it be that he met a real assassin?

"Eighth Emperor Sister, Ninth Emperor Sister, how... how did you get hurt like this?"

Seeing that the Empress Dowager looked tense, and she didn't seem to be lying at all, the emperor felt better.

Although she is not close to her daughters, she doesn't want their sisters to kill each other after her death.

Although the child is not very smart, the princess loves the younger sisters very much. For this alone, there is no one more suitable for this position than her among the children.

As an emperor, it is important to protect thousands of people.

But if he can't even protect his younger siblings, how can he have the heart to protect this country?
"Sister Huang, don't worry, she didn't hurt her vitals, so it doesn't matter."

The corners of Su Qiruo's bloodless lips curled up slightly, the expression of wanting to appease the princess when she was clearly injured fell into the eyes of the emperor, which made people feel a little more distressed.

"Delai, bring a chair for the empress too."

The emperor's tone was much calmer. After seeing the princess thanked her and sat down, he said,

"It just so happens that the princess is here, and your two imperial sisters are injured like this. I will leave this matter to you to investigate yourself. You must find out who is behind the scenes."

"Yes, mother emperor, my son and minister will lead the order."

The princess got up to receive the order and said, she thought that the Queen Mother would hand over this matter to the ministers outside to investigate, but she didn't expect it to fall on her own head.
