Chapter 397 Assassin
Chapter 397 Assassin
Fist and kick like a storm landed on Yu Wenming's body.
It's just that Yunmengxi didn't want to kill anyone, so he still held back his strength.
Otherwise, according to his strength, Yu Wenming would definitely die with such a beating!
Of course, even if Yunmengxi tried his best, Yu Wenming's fate would not be much better, he has always been pampered, when was he ever received such a beating, the pain made his eyes black.
Yunmengxi counted on the time, guessing that the guards were about to arrive, and finally punched Yuwen Wenming a few times in a hurry, and left in a hurry.
The guards inspected and saw the eunuch and maid lying on the ground, they were shocked and hurried forward.
"Prince, are you alright?!"
The chief guard found the clothes on Yu Wenming's body and hurried over to ask.
"Please, let me go..."
When Yu Wenming heard the voice, his body trembled subconsciously, and he begged for mercy vaguely.
"Eldest prince, eldest prince?" the chief guard called nervously, trying to wake Yu Wenming up.
Yu Wenming didn't feel any pain, his body froze slightly, he carefully let go of the hand holding his head, and glanced outside.
Seeing the clothes on the chief guard and his familiar face, Yu Wenming's tense body suddenly relaxed.
Yu Wenming knew that he was safe now, and the fear in his eyes receded, replaced by anger and hatred. He looked at the chief guard and gritted his teeth and said, "There is an assassin! Let me chase them immediately!"
He has never been subjected to such torture and humiliation. If he caught someone, he would have to tear that person into pieces to vent his hatred!
"assassin?"
The chief guard frowned, he turned his head and glanced at the guard behind him, and asked coldly, "Did you see the assassin?"
Everyone shook their heads. This is the imperial garden, the place connecting the former dynasty and the harem, and the center of the palace. To avoid the heavy guards of the palace and enter here, only people at the grandmaster level can enter.
But such a person, who would be free to run in and beat Yu Wenming up?
Yu Wenming got up from the ground and saw that the chief guard hadn't moved. He, who was already on the verge of fury, exploded completely.
"Hurry up! If you haven't found the assassin, I want your life!" Yu Wenming kicked at the head of the guard with red eyes.
The name of the head of the guard is Lou Ning, and his specific position is the head of the imperial guard with a knife. From the second rank, he is the emperor's confidant.
On weekdays, even if Sima Zhishang was in front of him, he had to be treated politely.
This Yu Wenming dared to attack him?
Lou Ning avoided it with a cold face. He glanced at Yu Wenming coldly. He was concerned about his identity, but he didn't bother with him.
"Go find it!"
With a wave of Lou Ning's hand, a group of guards behind him dispersed immediately.
"Lou Ning, why are you working? The assassins have all come to the Royal Garden, I think you, the head of the bodyguard, have managed to do it!" Yuwen Wen was already angry, and when he saw Lou Ning dodging, he became even more angry. He immediately vented all his anger on Lou Ning.
Listening to Yu Wenming's words, Lou Ning's expression grew colder.
However, Yu Wenming didn't notice it at all. Normally, he wouldn't trouble Lou Ning, but right now, he was so angry that he lost his mind, he didn't care who the person in front of him was, and he just got angry.
"Elder Prince, pay attention to your words. If I, the head of the bodyguard, can't do well, it doesn't count if you say it, but it counts if the emperor says it!" Lou Ning said coldly, holding the big knife at his waist.
"Hmph! If you can't find an assassin today, give me an explanation, and I'll let my father separate you from your position!"
Yu Wenming took a gloomy look at Lou Ning, and asked the guards to send him back to Chonghua Palace with his sleeves. He was severely beaten, and he had to ask the imperial doctor to see if there was anything wrong with his body.
"My lord, is the eldest prince ready to throw the responsibility on you?" A guard beside Lou Ning whispered.
Lou Ning didn't speak. He watched the guards who were searching around come back, and asked, "Have you found any traces of the assassin?"
"Responding to my lord, the guards around are all at their posts, and there is no trace of the assassin." The guard replied immediately.
"No assassins?"
Lou Ning frowned. Looking at Yu Wenming's leaving figure, he couldn't help but start a conspiracy theory in his heart.
Could it be that Yu Wenming deliberately designed such a situation, and wanted to deal with him?
"Search carefully." Lou Ning ordered, pursing his lips.
"Yes!" The guards around immediately took action.
Yunmengxi stole an eunuch's uniform by chance, and put it back immediately after beating him. At this time, he was on the way to Shoukang Palace.
He looked at the rushing guards around, raised his eyebrows, and brushed past them carelessly.
No one found out that he was the so-called assassin, and no one even took the initiative to investigate him.
Of course, Yunmengxi didn't think that after beating Yu Wenming, the other party would not suspect him.
But doubts are doubts, does he have evidence?
He has been with Chu Zhuang for so long, but he has learned nothing.
If it was the previous time when he was impulsive, when Yu Wenming stopped him and deliberately disgusted him, he couldn't help but do it.
But now he knows that he has to bear it. Although he didn't bear it for long, the other party can't find an excuse to blame him!
"Haha! Go back and tell Chu Zhuang, he must be happy too!"
After finishing the beating, Yunmengxi came to Shoukang Palace refreshed.
"Little Prince Yun, you are here. The Empress Dowager specially ordered the slaves to wait for you here!" Seeing Yun Mengxi, Aunt Xuan immediately went up to meet her, and said with a smile.
Aunt Xuan is the queen mother's dowry maid. She has been with the queen mother for decades and has a deep affection.
Asking her to come here to wait for Yunmengxi in person is enough to see how much the Empress Dowager attaches importance to Yunmengxi.
"Aunt Xuan!" Seeing Aunt Xuan's eyes light up, Yunmengxi happily reminisces with her.
When Yunmengxi was in the palace when he was a child, Aunt Xuan often took him with him.
"Is Grandma the Empress Dowager okay?" Yunmengxi asked while pulling Aunt Xuan, walking towards the palace.
"The queen mother is in good health! I just miss you, my son." Aunt Xuan said with a smile.
Xuangu led Yunmengxi all the way into the palace, the queen mother had been waiting for a long time, when she saw Yunmengxi, she immediately said: "Come here and let the Ai family have a look!"
Yunmengxi secretly left home at that time, and the queen mother almost fainted when she heard the news.
At that time, she thought that Yun Tingfeng and the others were all killed in battle, and the Yun family only had the last blood of Yunmengxi left. If something happened to him, she really couldn't bear the ending.
"Grandma Queen Mother!"
When Yunmengxi saw the Queen Mother, his eyes couldn't help but turn red. He quickly stepped forward and knelt down in front of her with self-blame: "Mengxi made the Queen Mother worry."
"Good boy, get up!"
The Empress Dowager wanted to help Yunmengxi up herself, but her legs and feet were inconvenient, so she could only sit on a chair and stretched out her hand to Yunmengxi.
Aunt Xuan understood what the Queen Mother was thinking, and immediately helped Yunmengxi up.
Yunmengxi stepped forward, took the Queen Mother's hand, and sat down beside her.
"Good boy, I have suffered a lot..."
The queen mother wanted to say that Yunmengxi had suffered a lot, but seeing Yunmengxi's flushed face, even more energetic than before, she couldn't say it for a while.
Yunmengxi looked at the queen mother and grinned happily.
"You!" Seeing Yunmengxi's heartless appearance, the queen mother shook her head helplessly, but seeing that Yunmengxi was fine with her own eyes, she was still happy in her heart.
"Tell the queen mother what happened after leaving Dongfeng mansion." The queen mother patted Yunmengxi's hand and said.
Although Yun Tingfeng had already told her one or two things before, she still wanted to hear what Yun Mengxi had to say.
Yunmengxi thought for a while, and told the queen mother what happened next.
……
"what!"
Hongxia was shocked when she saw Yu Wenming suddenly appearing at the gate of the palace.
She is the maidservant next to the imperial concubine Sima Xunqin, and since Yu Wenming has not come over for a long time, Sima Xunqin specially sent her out to have a look.
Who knew that the moment he left the gate of Chonghua Palace, he saw Yu Wenming with a bruised nose and swollen face from the beating.
"Hmph!" Seeing Hongxia's appearance, Yu Wenming snorted coldly, ignored her, and walked directly into the palace.
Hongxia came back to her senses, recognized the prince's clothes on Yu Wenming's body, her eyes widened, and she immediately followed nervously.
"My concubine, the eldest prince is here."
Hongxia led Yu Wenming into the room, and reported to Sima Xunqin in a low voice.
"Tomorrow..."
When Sima Xunqin heard Yu Wenming coming, she raised her head and looked towards the door. Seeing Yu Wenming's appearance, she was taken aback for a moment, then her complexion changed drastically, and she walked over quickly.
"Minger, why did you become like this?! Who?! Who beat you?!" Sima Xunqin asked angrily.
"Let the imperial doctor come and show me first."
Yu Wenming sat down on the chair with a gloomy face, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Hurry up!" Sima Xunqin came to his senses and roared at Hongxia who was dazed beside him.
"Yes, empress!" Hongxia was so clever when she was yelled at, she immediately trotted out to invite the imperial physician herself.
The imperial physician came not long after, he gave Yu Wenming a careful diagnosis, and then said: "Your Majesty, please don't worry, the eldest prince's body is covered with skin wounds, and he didn't hurt his internal organs. He only needs to apply some wound medicine. It can be cured after half a month of self-cultivation."
Yunmengxi only wanted to teach Yu Wenming a lesson, but he didn't kill him. Yu Wenming's injury was not serious.
It's just that most of his injuries were concentrated on his face, his eyes were all black and blue, and his nose was also very red and swollen. With the addition of large and small bruises, he looked extremely embarrassed.
With such a face, I'm afraid he won't want to go out until his injury heals.
Hearing that Yu Wenming's injury was not serious, Sima Xunqin was relieved.
"Who did it?!" Sima Xunqin slapped the table heavily and asked angrily.
Yu Wenming is her lifeblood, if she dares to attack him, she will never let him go easily!
