Chapter 90
A group of men in black rushed in from outside the hall, and the Habayashi Army surrounded the emperor and empress with heavy defenses. The officials were scared to avoid the scene of drinking and talking just now, and some timid female relatives were already screaming at this time.

Xie Chen must be safe by the queen's side, but now her gaze passed through the chaotic crowd and landed on Gu Hengyu.

Gu Hengyu was also looking at Xie Chen, and after receiving Xie Chen's gaze, he smiled at Xie Chen, indicating that she needn't worry.

The most important duty of the Habayashi Army is to protect the safety of the emperor, but this group of men in black didn't seem to intend to assassinate the emperor, but shot in the direction of the prince.

Yan Qing'an was not far from Gu Hengyu's position, and there was the fifth prince between them.

"Go and protect the prince, go!" The emperor anxiously ordered the Habayashi army in front of him, and comforted the queen beside him.

It's just that this group of men in black had obviously undergone special training, so they easily dodged the attack of the Habayashi army, and stabbed Yan Qing'an with the sword in their hands.

At this moment, Gu Hengyu took away the sword of Yu Linjun who fell beside him, and flew to Yan Qing'an.

It would be a bit difficult for Yan Qing'an to deal with so many men in black alone. After Gu Hengyu joined, the situation gradually reversed, and the men in black were almost overwhelmed.

Just before Gu Hengyu and the others were about to succeed, the man in black in front of them glanced at the fifth prince beside them, and immediately took Yan Yiran hostage.

Even though Yan Yiran had learned some martial arts and swordsmanship, his skills were not good, and the embroidered pillows were nothing more than fancy, and the man in black soon succeeded.

He placed the sword in his hand on Yan Yiran's neck, and threatened Gu Hengyu in front of him and the crowd behind him loudly: "Let me go, otherwise..." As he spoke, he saw some blood on Yan Yiran's neck .

People no longer dare to act rashly.

Yan Yiran felt the coolness and stinging pain on his neck, and his heart was full of fear. Regardless of his usual image, he shouted: "Don't come here! Don't come here!"

Then he begged the man in black who was holding him hostage behind him, "I'll go with you, don't kill me."

The emperor was disappointed when he saw his useless son, but he was father and son after all, and he also ordered the people below not to act rashly.

This group of men in black left a lot, and they didn't love to fight, and they left very quickly.

When he reached the palace wall, the man in black who was holding him hostage did not take Yan Yiran's life, but stabbed him in the shoulder, pushed him heavily to the side of the Habayashi Army, and flew out of the palace.

Yan Yiran was supported by the leader of the Yulin Army, screaming pain in his mouth, his lips turned white, and blood flowed from his shoulder.

Xie Chen came out behind the emperor and empress to see this scene, he felt disdain for Yan Yi in his heart, but he cried and cried at the slightest injury, and wanted to marry her, it was a dream.

But in the eyes of the emperor, this injury was a big deal, and the imperial doctor was called immediately.

Concubine Xiao Gui hadn't been out of her palace for a few days, and she didn't come to the palace banquet today because she was unwell. At this time, when she heard Yan Yiran's injury, her face changed drastically, and she anxiously went out from the palace to see how her son was doing.

Yan Yiran was placed by the emperor in the palace closest to the banquet hall for treatment and bandaging, while the emperor and empress had to go to the front banquet hall to appease the frightened officials and their families.

After the emperor and queen came back from work, Concubine Xiao Gui was already crying in front of Yan Yiran's bed.

Yan Yiran is his own son, so the emperor naturally felt distressed, so he immediately asked the imperial doctor: "How is the fifth prince's injury?"

"The fifth prince is in good health. He has lost too much blood and has fallen into a coma. He will wake up tomorrow." The imperial doctor bowed his head and reported.

After hearing this, the emperor felt relieved, there should be nothing wrong.

The emperor comforted Concubine Xiao with a few words, and the queen, as a mother, also knew Concubine Xiao's worries, so she followed her to comfort her.

Concubine Xiao nodded with tears in her eyes, and then said to the emperor as if she had made up her mind: "This concubine has something to ask the emperor to do."

An accident happened to Yan Yiran today, Concubine Xiao thought a lot on the way here, she heard that those men in black were going towards the crown prince, but after failing to succeed, she found that Yan Yiran was close, so she hijacked him as a hostage.

It's not a big deal, the prince is being targeted like this, if Yan Yiran wants to be the prince wholeheartedly, it is inevitable that he will suffer some harm in the process.

The emperor was puzzled and asked, "What's the matter?"

Concubine Xiao Gui knelt in front of the emperor and spoke clearly: "I implore Your Majesty to grant the Fifth Prince a fief and keep him away from the capital."

This not only means that he has no chance of winning the throne, but also means that Concubine Xiao may never see her son again for the rest of her life.

Thinking of this, Concubine Xiao Gui burst into tears even though she deliberately controlled her emotions.

The emperor obviously did not expect Concubine Xiao Gui to make this request, and hesitated in his heart.

Although he wants to use the crown prince again, he has never thought of abolishing the crown prince, but if he is young, if the crown prince dominates in the capital...

Besides, he didn't want the fifth prince to leave his side prematurely.

"Let me think about it again." Seeing Concubine Xiao Gui's serious face, the emperor couldn't continue to ask, and said helplessly.

As soon as these words came out, the empress and Xie Chen beside the emperor knew that the fifth prince was completely out of luck for the throne in this life.

Especially Xie Chen, she only knew that Gu Hengyu wanted to hinder the Fifth Prince from marrying her, but she did not expect to do so cleanly, and completely forced Concubine Xiao to do something for the unconscious Fifth Prince by assassinating Yan Qing'an. Decide.

The emperor will not marry himself to a prince who is outside the fief. Even if he reluctantly agrees, the queen would not agree, not to mention there is Concubine Xiao behind her. .

Once the emperor agrees, the fifth prince will not even think about thanking him, he must have put all his thoughts on how to stay in the capital.

In his previous life, Yan Yichen regarded the fifth prince as a strong enemy, but he never thought that he would be solved so easily by Gu Hengyu now.

Moreover, the crown prince was assassinated and the fifth prince was injured. These two incidents were linked together. It is self-evident that the most suspected person is self-evident. Compared with the emperor, he already has the answer in his heart at this time.

At night, Xie Chen returned to Shifang Palace.

Yulian had been brought back by Jin Zhi for a while, and she was sitting slumped on the ground, her eyes dim.

Seeing Xie Chen come back, she saluted as before.

"Yulian, let me ask you, when did you become Yan Yichen's person?" Xie Chen tapped his finger on the table lightly and asked.

Yulian was only about ten years old when she came to her. She didn't believe that Yulian wanted to harm her in the first place.

Yulian lowered her head and denied it: "This servant is not from the Third Prince."

"I heard that you still have an elderly grandmother and a lonely brother?" Xie Chen ignored her answer and asked another question.

Yulian's expression was no longer calm, but she became flustered: "The servants are responsible for the work, please let the innocent people go."
