"Your Majesty has passed away."

Shen Xian's ears buzzed for a while, and her mind went blank for a long time before she could come back to her senses.

It took him a long time to find his voice and asked hurriedly: "When did it happen?"

"Just now, hundreds of officials forced the master to let His Majesty come forward, otherwise they would say that the master had deceived the court. The master had no choice but to invite His Majesty who was terminally ill."

Shen Xian could still think of how those court officials forced Shi Ling.

"Then what?"

Ah Feng: "Actually, last night, the master and the chief eunuch performed a play for outsiders to see, making people think that His Majesty died last night."

Shen Xian thought of a word for no reason and lured the snake out of its hole?

"So after Your Majesty came out today, those people still didn't believe it, especially when Shi Yu said in front of everyone that Your Majesty was a fake. His Majesty was so angry that he pointed at him and scolded him, leaving an oral instruction not to pass the throne to the third prince Shi Yu, but His Majesty also He died on the spot because of the sudden fire that struck his heart."

As soon as they finished speaking, a group of eunuchs ran past them, each with a white belt tied around their waists. Not far away, the sound of the Holy Emperor's funeral trumpet was heard.

It seems that Emperor Hongzheng really passed away.

But she hasn't even asked where the thing is!

Ah Feng looked around nervously: "My master wants me to take you out of the palace first. I'm afraid the third prince's sudden attack today has been planned in advance."

Shen Xian turned back and took a deep look at Ning Yuxuan.

In the end, she decided to go with Ah Feng first. Anyway, she had been searching in Ning Yuxuan for so long and couldn't find any clues. If she couldn't find it, others would be able to find it.

"Let's go."

Shen Xian's carriage stopped outside the palace gate. She thought she would leave the palace directly, but Ah Feng actually took them to a side door.

Oh no, walk up the high wall.

Shen Xian, who has been down-to-earth since childhood, felt for the first time what it means to make a leap.

She and Xiang Nong were carried by Ah Feng's left and right hands and jumped easily on the palace wall, carefully avoiding the patrolling imperial troops.

Viewed from a high place, the court hall was full of people kneeling, and there were many imperial guards pouring in from all directions. It was unclear whether they were there to help or to cause trouble.

Shen Xian looked around, as if she wanted to see Shi Ling's shadow, but it was too far away and she couldn't tell who was who among the densely packed shadows.

After leaving the palace, the three of them took a long detour before returning to the palace.

But I don't know why Shen Xian's heart kept beating, and she seemed a little uneasy.

There was an unknown premonition lingering around her.

When Shi Yu suddenly attacked Shi Ling today, he would definitely not be unprepared. In the past, he would not have dared to speak loudly to Shi Ling if he had the courage to do so.

Could it be that arrangements have been made in the palace?

Now that the prince is in prison, the only ones who can compete with him for the throne are King Xuan and his younger brother Shi An. But as long as Shi Ling is captured, why should Shi An be afraid?

The more Shen Xian thought about it, the more something was wrong. She always felt that something was beyond her imagination.

"No, I have to go to the palace again."

Xiang Nong hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and Afeng also said: "The master asked me to bring you back to wait for him, but you cannot enter the palace."

Shen Xian couldn't help but feel worried when she thought that Shi Ling was probably facing difficulties alone at this moment.

He shook his head and said, "But I can't just wait like this. If anything happens to him in the palace, I won't know."

"But what can you do if you go?"

Ah Feng followed up and said: "Yes, Princess, the master is very powerful. He will definitely come back, so you can wait with peace of mind."

Shen Xian looked at A Feng and bit her lower lip.

I prayed silently with Shi Ling's name in my heart.

But the wait changed from day to night, and Shen Xian almost stepped out of the ground at the door.

After watching the sun go down, she didn't want to wait any longer.

Even if we have to die, it's better to die together.

While A Feng and Xiang Nong were not paying attention, Shen Xian ran towards the door.

She knew that her entry into the palace would not make any difference, but she just wanted to see Shi Ling.

Knowing that he is in danger, but not being able to see him or knowing any news about him is more painful than ever.

Shen Xian struggled to push the door open, and Ah Feng had already caught up behind her, and was about to persuade her to go back.

When he looked up and saw someone coming from the door, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Master."

Shi Ling was still wearing the official uniform of the day, but he was dark and tired, and his smile was a little forced.

Shen Xian saw that he was fine and immediately threw herself into his arms.

Shi Ling, who was originally tired, felt that his chest was filled with something the moment he hugged Shen Xian. He hugged Shen Xian tightly as if he wanted to rub her into his own blood and bones.

He asked in a muffled voice: "Are you scared?"

Shen Xian said nothing, but tears fell silently.

Shi Ling sighed and patted her back to comfort her: "It's okay, it will be ugly if you cry again."

Shen Xian immediately let go of him and wiped away her tears.

Shi Ling stepped into the door of the mansion, called the golden guards to guard the door, then pulled Shen Xian into the bedroom and began to take off her official robe.

Shen Xian suddenly blushed, stared at her toes and said sheepishly: "I...I'm here in Kuishui, don't..."

Shi Ling took off his clothes for a moment.

There was a strange expression on his face, and then he laughed out loud and said: "What kind of nonsense are you holding in your mind?"

"Isn't it?"

Shi Ling shook his head, casually put down the official robe he had taken off, and changed into his own private clothes.

Shen Xian couldn't understand it.

"Are you still going out?"

"It's us."

As he spoke, he found a few simple clothes from the closet, some for him and Shen Xian's. He also took out a long sword and a small sleeve crossbow and handed them to Shen Xian in an orderly manner. But Shen Xian could see that he was anxious.

Shen Xian took the crossbow, but before asking, Shi Ling said: "Is there anything else I need to get?"

Only then did Shen Xian realize: "Where are we going?"

"Go and meet Shi Yanyuan."

Shen Xian's eyes lit up.

Surprised: "Cousin Mingyue and aunt have left the prison safely?"

Shi Ling nodded while packing his luggage.

"Shi Yu is already gathering his private soldiers to enter the city. Today he tried to force me to plead guilty but failed. There is no guarantee that there will be other charges tomorrow, so we must leave tonight. Shi Yanyuan and the others are heading to Changyong Pass. Let's go there. Join together."

Shen Xian understood.

Shi Yu is going to rebel.

The city of Kyoto is really about to change.

Shen Xian patted her chest to comfort her fragile little heart, then hid the crossbow and began to pack her own baggage.

In special times, she also knew how to keep everything simple, abandoning all the cumbersome clothes and only took one or two pieces of clothing that were convenient for walking, and then took some extra money to put in her baggage.

The palace clothes on my body have also been changed, and the hairpin on my head should be thrown away.

After everything was ready and they went out, Ah Feng and Xiang Nong also carried their baggage early and waited.

Two more fast horses were brought from the stable, Xiang Nong and A Feng rode together, and Shen Xian and Shi Ling had just enough horse.

It was windy at night, and it was already early autumn and still a little chilly. Shen Xian couldn't help but turn sideways and hide in Shi Ling's arms.
